The back hall of the Fulu Tea House.

In the middle of nowhere, a thatched hut was built, and three pits were built, each separated by tall wooden planks.

When Zhao Yu came here, he saw that the wooden door of the pit in the middle was tightly closed.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu hummed a small tune and walked into a pit next to him, closed the wooden door, took off his pants, and squatted down.

It's just that the smell of aqua toilets is really shocking.

Zhao Yu pinched his nose and looked down, just when he saw a lot of insects crawling there, his face changed, and he suddenly sighed softly:

"Maggots, you and I are bored, shall I tell you a story?"

said, regardless of whether people wanted to or not, Zhao Yu raised his head and said:

"There is a scholar named Ning Caichen in Zhejiang, his personality is generous and bold, and he is self-respecting with good behavior. He often said to people: I never look for flowers and willows, and I have been upright and decent all my life. ”

"Once, he went to Jinhua, and when he arrived in the north of the city, he rested in a large temple. The Buddha hall and pagoda in the temple are magnificent and splendid, but the basil grows taller than people. The two doors of the monk's house are hidden, and only a small house on the south side is locked, which seems to be inhabited......"

Zhao Yu's voice is faint, and the tone is frustrating, giving people a creepy feeling.

Even halfway through the talk, Zhao Yu himself shuddered, and finally his voice closed:

"Forget it, don't talk about it, it's scary!"

took out a piece of paper from his arms and wiped his buttocks, Zhao Yu lifted his pants and walked out of the pit.

It's just that as soon as he pushed open the wooden door of the thatched house, Zhao Yu saw an old man squatting behind the door, stretching out his head, staring at him with triangular eyes.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw such a head, and Zhao Yu was so frightened that he almost didn't sit in the pit behind him.

"Mr. Hu, people are scared to death!"

Zhao Yu glared at the old man angrily, then kicked open the wooden door, walked out of the thatched house, and walked towards the front hall.

This person is the storyteller who urinated before, Hu Laosi!

"Do you know the old man?"

Hu Laosi hurriedly stood in front of Zhao Yu, staring at Zhao Yu with blazing eyes.

"Of course! Who doesn't know you in this teahouse? ”

Zhao Yu stopped and glanced at Hu Laosi.

"Okay, good, it's good to know the old man!"

Hu Laosi rubbed his old hands, his face was full of joy, and then looked at Zhao Yu, who was dressed as a schoolchild, and said with a bright eye:

"This little... Little brother, I wonder what story you just told? Where did you hear that? ”

It's on the road!

Zhao Yu was overjoyed in his heart, his face remained silent, and he hesitated:

"Ghost stories, told to me by an old gentleman, and there are many, many more to come!"

"Who is that old gentleman? Where is he now? ”

Hu Laosi immediately grabbed Zhao Yu's arms and asked tightly.

"What do you want to do?"

Zhao Yu shook off Hu Laosi's hand and took a step back, his face full of vigilance.

Seeing this, Hu Laosi hurriedly waved his hand and explained:

"Little brother, don't get me wrong, the old man is just interested in these stories and wants to visit this old gentleman!"

"Oh! He's gone, and you won't see him anymore! ”

"This ......"

Hu Laosi's face was stunned, but immediately, he stared at Zhao Yu tightly, licked his lips and said:

"This little brother, you can tell stories just now, so do you know the rest of the stories of this old gentleman?"

"Yes! The old gentleman often told me these stories when he was alive, and I was very ripe, and there were dozens of them! ”

Zhao Yu opened his fingers and nodded.

"Dozens of ......"

Hu Laosi's eyes were stunned again.

But at this time, Zhao Yu thought of something and took out a few pages from his arms:

"Well, these are the two stories I copied out without any incident!"

Swish!

Hu Laosi grabbed the paper and looked at it.

The more he looked, the brighter Hu Laosi's eyes became, and even his breathing became short, and his face showed excitement.

Zhao Yu has been observing Hu Laosi's face, and when he saw this, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

What he took out was the story in "Strange Tales from Liaozhai", which he wrote in the past few days, thinking that after he had the opportunity to come out of the county, he would exchange it for silver, but he didn't expect to meet Jiang Ruotong today to take him out.

Needless to say, the stories in the chat are very fascinating, and the ghost love stories are very attractive and have a great influence in later generations.

Zhao Yu may not know much about other stories, but he is still clear about such an extremely famous novel and other famous works, and knows that "Liao Zhai" came from the Qing Dynasty, which is not available at this time, and he is definitely very marketable when he takes it out now.

And for storytellers like Hu Laosi, such stories are even more appealing.

Telling a story that has never been seen before and is extremely attractive will not only boost your fame, but also make you a lot of money.

"Little brother, what about the rest of the story? Can you still write? ”

After reading it, Hu Laosi grabbed Zhao Yu's arms again excitedly and asked urgently.

"Of course I can write it, I'm a student in Class B of a private school now! But I'm not going to give it to you, I'm going to use these stories to find the storyteller for pocket money! ”

Zhao Yu raised his chin arrogantly.

"I'm a storyteller! You give all the stories to the old man, and the old man gives you five ......"

Hu Laosi excitedly stretched out a palm, but then immediately added another palm:

"I'll give you ten cents!"

"Humph! Are you lying to a child? ”

Zhao Yu suddenly pursed his lips and said angrily: "That old gentleman told me, these stories are worth one tael of silver, you want to buy it for ten yuan, I won't sell it to you!" ”

"One tael of silver and one ......"

Hu Laosi's expression slowly converged, and his triangular eyes suddenly narrowed slightly when he looked at Zhao Yu, and he began to look around.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu sneered in his heart, how could he not know what Hu Laosi was going to do? Suddenly a cold drink:

"If you don't buy it, get out of the way, my family is still waiting for me in the private room upstairs, stop the little master, and ask someone to clean you up!"

Hearing this, Hu Laosi was shocked.

Although he was talking on the stage before, the people who came in and out of the teahouse were also looked at by him, especially the guests in the private room upstairs, who would pay more attention to it.

So when Zhao Yu and the others came into the teahouse, Hu Laosi also saw that there were maids and guards, and Hu Laosi knew that their identities were not ordinary.

I was blinded by the silver just now, and after Zhao Yu drank it coldly, Hu Laosi immediately came to his senses.

He can't afford to provoke such a person!

didn't dare to have any other thoughts, Hu Laosi hurriedly put on a smiling face:

"This little boy is not in a hurry, the old man buys it! It's just that one or two pieces of silver are really expensive, how about fifty essays? ”

Hu Laosi had a smirk on his face, his title had changed, and his voice was full of coaxing and deception.

Seeing this, Zhao Yu sneered in his heart, and knew that Hu Laosi was afraid of him.

He dared to come to Hu Laosi alone to sell the story, precisely because of Jiang Ruotong's potential.

Otherwise, he was alone, still a child, and came to do such a business with others, thinking that he would not die fast enough?

His face was silent, Zhao Yu seemed to be coaxed, and he didn't leave in a hurry, but spoke domineeringly:

"Don't think about fifty essays, at least five hundred essays, I saw it when you told the story just now, the reward for telling a story is hundreds of dollars, and a story can be told many times!"

"Eh, the little boy doesn't know, this reward is not just for the old man, and the teahouse also has to share a little profit!"

Hu Laosi's face was full of bitterness, and then as if he had made up his mind, he gritted his teeth and said:

"How about the old man add another fifty, one hundred articles?"

"Humph! At least 200 texts! Love it or not, don't go to other teahouse storytellers! ”

Zhao Yu was a little impatient, and walked forward with a sentence.

Hu Laosi was stimulated by Zhao Yu's later words, and hurriedly jumped in front of Zhao Yu:

"Don't, don't go to other people, the old man buys it, two hundred wen a piece!"

stopped Zhao Yu with a serious face, and after Hu Laosi finished speaking, he rubbed his hands again and said with a smile:

"Little boy, the old man has bought all your stories, but I don't know when the rest of the stories will be given to the old man?"

"This is easy to do, you can come to the private school in two days to find me! But for now, you'll have to settle the money for these two stories first! ”

Zhao Yu raised his chin arrogantly and stretched out his little finger to point to a few pages in Hu Laosi's hand.

Hu Laosi looked at the paper in his hand, his face changed several times, and finally for the sake of the later story, he gritted his teeth and took out four silver beans from his arms and handed them to Zhao Yu.

"Hehe, I have pocket money again!"

got the silver beans, Zhao Yu's eyes lit up, revealing the excitement that a child should have.

Immediately, Zhao Yu seemed to be able to have more pocket money, and told Hu Laosi very seriously how to find him to get the rest of the story.

Then, Zhao Yu put down Hu Laosi, squeezed the silver beans in his arms tightly, and walked towards the front hall excitedly.

This is silver, his silver, the kind that doesn't have to be handed over to his parents! Although it is small, it can be regarded as his first pot of gold!

And there will be a steady stream of silver after that!

Thinking that there were hundreds of stories in Liaozhai, Zhao Yu took a deep breath, with this silver, he would have the capital!

"Zhao Gongzi, can the thatched house be put up?"

Just when Zhao Yu was excited, before he could take a few steps, a sharp figure suddenly walked out of the side door in front of him, which was Jiang Ruotong's middle-aged guard.

Seeing the middle-aged guard, Zhao Yu knew that he had been out for a long time, and Jiang Ruotong was worried about him, so he smiled sweetly:

"It's all right! Uncle Li, let's go! ”

With a very familiar scream, Zhao Yu got into the side door from the side of the middle-aged guard.

And the middle-aged guard, after glancing at Hu Laosi in the courtyard, also followed into the front hall.

Later, seeing the sharp gaze of the middle-aged guard, Hu Laosi's heart was shocked, and he secretly congratulated himself that he had not thought crookedly about Zhao Yu just now.

But fortunately, after rejoicing, Hu Laosi looked at the few pages in his hand and became excited again, and then his body shook and escaped into the front hall.
