Chapter 8: Door-to-door dignitaries

"And where are you going? Go home? Yesterday the bustard said that you have a sister, are you going to find her? ”

Hongge didn't speak, stared at the tea, and was silent for a long time: "I don't have a home for a long time, as for my sister...... I didn't know where to go to her. ”

A six-year-old child who can't speak, I'm afraid that it will be more than lucky.

"What about you? Going home? ”

Gu Jiu shook his head: "I need to stay for two more days." ”

"If you don't know what you're going to do, try to get out of the situation. If a person likes the moment, he will not feel pain and confusion. I'm going to do the business of scripts, is my sister going to do it? ”

"Script business?" Hongge turned around and quipped, "Why do you want so much money?" That's not enough for you to marry?"

"But I want to marry myself before I get married, ten taels of silver can't be exchanged for a good life, and the ten taels of silver I want are far from being given."

"Sister, do you want to do a script business with me? I can write my own script. ”

Hongge's eyes were shocked, and he looked at Gu Jiu in disbelief: "Do you know how to write a script?"

"Hmm." Gu Jiu nodded, the text here is only different from the previous contact, she is completely competent.

Hongge looked at Gu Jiu with obvious suspicion in his eyes: "You...... Do you have a talented person in the family?"

Gu Jiu: "...... No, my cousin reads, and I'll just watch it. ”

Hongge was silent, and after a while, she took out her deed of sale from her baggage, pointed to a word on it, and asked, "What is this reading?"

"Red."

"What about this?"

"Song."

"Sss Hongge gasped, she knew these two words in total, and she was told to her by an older sister in the Hongxiang Pavilion when she was sold.

Hongge's eyes were full of amazement when she looked at Gu Jiu, there was no way for a woman to follow her husband to read and write, and the person in front of her could have such a skill to show her talent. But it's a pity that it's a woman.

"Okay." Hongge nodded: "If you can really write a story, the rest will be much easier." ”

"I saw that the books sold on the street were all small volumes, what should I do with that thing?"

"They are all bought in bulk, and there is a store in the west of the city that specializes in selling this kind of booklet."

Hongxiang Pavilion has an endless stream of visitors every day, and for all kinds of news, the people of Hongxiang Pavilion may not know less than the people outside.

What's more, she has long planned to leave, and she is also more concerned about this kind of news.

Gu Jiu: !! It's that simple!

"Then I'll go out and buy paper and pens now!"

It is better to choose a day than to hit the day, Gu Jiu immediately ran out of the inn, and bought a book to read during the day before the stall closed the stall.

Different types of writing have different writing styles, and if you don't judge before writing, the probability of failure is very high.

The pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were much more expensive than Gu Jiu had imagined, and it took a tael of silver to buy them.

"The sisters in the pavilion like to watch this, too."

In the inn, Hongge flipped through the booklet that Gu Jiu had just bought and said.

"You don't look?"

"I have to save money to redeem myself, I can't bear it."

"Then I'll write it to you in the future, it doesn't cost anything." Gu Jiu picked up the brush as he spoke, he hadn't written the brush for too long, and he was almost rusty.

Hongge smiled: "Okay." ”

The core of the booklet is nothing more than four words: love but not can't.

Gu Jiu's creative speed was very fast, and he wrote the story that night, and showed it to Hongge after the circle was changed. After the latter gave his opinion, it was time for another time.

Early the next morning, the two went to the west of the city together to buy fifty blank booklets, two for each of them, for a total of 100 texts.

"Aren't you afraid that I will lie to you? It's only ten taels of silver in total, aren't you afraid of ruining it? After Gu Jiu finished copying another copy, Hongge couldn't help but ask.

Gu Jiu rubbed his wrist and said indifferently: "The ten taels of silver were originally given to me by you, so what is there to worry about." Besides, I have nothing, so why not be afraid to start all over again. ”

Hongge didn't speak, just took the written booklet to the window to dry.

In the afternoon of the same day, the two set up a small stall and began to test the results.

"Xiao Jiu, don't you think we should sell it?"

"I'm a little shy."

Red Song: "...... Is it? I really didn't see it. ”

Gu Jiu smiled, looking at the people coming and going, his eyes swept back and forth in the crowd, and he made a simple positioning according to the other party's clothing.

In the next second, Gu Jiu picked up the booklet and stepped forward to stop one of them.

"Miss, we have a new script, do you want to take a look?"

The woman in Tsing Yi who was stopped looked at Gu Jiu's shabby clothes with some disgust, but her face was really smiling.

Looking at the booklet handed over, I reluctantly took it.

"How did you sell it?" The woman in Tsing Yi originally planned to flip down twice, but she didn't expect that she hadn't really seen this version.

"Twenty copper plates."

"Then I want a copy." As he spoke, he took out twenty copper plates from his purse.

"We're going to have new ones in the future, and it's in this position. If you like it, you can check back next time to see a new one. ”

"Okay."

After the others left, Gu Jiu took the copper plate and shook it happily at Hongge.

After that, Gu Jiu sold dozens of copies in the same way.

"Uh, what?" Hong Ge looked at the ten booklets that were pushed in front of her, and subconsciously dodged.

"Sell, aren't we a cooperative relationship? You're not going to help sell it?"

"I won't, you can sell it yourself, and I don't want money."

Hearing this, Gu Jiu picked up the booklet and stuffed it into her arms: "People sometimes have to learn to make a complete break with the past. If you don't say it yourself, who knows what I used to do? Even if you know, what can you do? I don't dislike myself, so who is in a position to judge me?"

Hongge wants to find a new life, but he can't forget his previous life for a while.

Wandering back and forth, brave and cowardly.

Hongge wanted to say something, but Gu Jiu pulled her out of the shop.

The so-called everything is difficult at the beginning, and after two successes, the introduction of the red song becomes more and more natural.

When he went back in the evening, Hongge looked at the large amount of copper coins and was a little incredulous.

"I can make so much money in one day!"

Gu Jiu bit the baked cake and nodded in affirmation: "Excluding the money for buying booklets, inns, and our meals, there are about eight hundred wen left a day." ”

"You can earn hundreds of silver in that year!"

"That's right! But I'm going back the next morning. ”

Hongge was stunned for a moment: "Then how long will it be before you come next time?"

"For five days, our village has a car coming to the city every ten days, staying in the city for five days and then returning." But I just don't know how Gu Zheqi came, obviously I didn't see him in the car that day.

Hongge nodded: "Then in the past few days when you are gone, I will find someone else to copy it and make a difference." ”

"Okay, I'll put all the money from today's sale here. I'll write another version tomorrow, and then I'll sell the two in exchange. ”

"Give it all to me this time?"

"Hmm." Gu Jiu nodded: "But in the future, we will have to divide it, and I want sixty percent of the profit." ”

"Seventy percent for you."

"So good!"

"You can write scripts and sell them at the same time, so I'll do you a favor, and it's uncomfortable to take too much."

Hongge touched the copper plate and unconsciously wanted to laugh. She was sold at the age of twelve, and now she has only saved seven taels of silver in eighteen or six years, and now she earns one tael a day!

……

Since he was going back tomorrow morning, Gu Jiu deliberately took time out today to buy cloth, needlework, pastries and two little rabbits.

"Xiao Jiu."

The next morning, when Gu Jiu was leaving, Hongge suddenly called out to her.

"Give me a new name, the red song was given to me by the old bustard."

"Okay."

……

"You, why are you here?" Originally, the carload of people laughing was stunned when they saw Gu Jiu.

"Because I'm going home! Uncle, you won't forget what you said! ”

The uncle looked at Gu Jiu like a chicken that would flee, his eyes were full of disbelief.

"You didn't deliver anything?"

"Go, the boss gave me a baked cake."

The scene fell silent for a while, Gu Jiuke didn't care about that, and climbed into the carriage by himself.

At first, she felt that the system was pitfalling, and now she is obviously most short of money, what is the use of giving her space? Now that I see these people, I really realize the meaning of space.

In the evening, the carriage arrived in the town, and Gu Jiu got out of the car and bought a few buns and went home.

When he was about to walk to the door, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, Gu Zhiqi should still be in the city at this time! Why are so many people gathered in front of the house?

When I walked in, the uneasiness became more and more obvious, and I couldn't help but speed up my pace.

"Auntie, has something happened to my family?" Gu Jiu pulled the outermost middle-aged woman who was stretching her neck to look inside, and asked.

"Long girl! You're back! Lord Zhao in the town sent someone to kidnap you! ”

Gu Jiu: !!

Hearing the movement, the people who were originally blocked consciously moved out of the way.

Gu Jiu looked along the path that everyone had moved out of, and a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears was standing proudly in their courtyard with two thin little guys.

"I can tell you, you have taken this money, and you have signed the signature, now don't be careful, our adults will let you not eat and go around!" The middle-aged man pointed at Ye Qingyi and Gu Jing and yelled.

As for the others, they didn't show up at all.

"Then dare to ask who signed it?" Gu Jiu walked through the crowd and walked up to Ye Qingyi and Gu Jing and asked.

The man's eyes were already small, but now he squinted and looked at Gu Jiu, and it directly became a slit.

"You're Gu Jiu?"

"It's not! I've never signed a sign with you, and you're not looking for me! ”

The man's face squeezed the fat, looked at Gu Jiu incomprehensibly, and then shook his head impatiently, and waved his big hand: "I don't care about you, anyway, I'm going to take people away today!" ”

"Were you there when the man signed the pledge?" Gu Jiu was very calm and guided step by step.

"In! A woman! I'll recognize her as soon as she appears! ”

"That's easy. Xiao Jing, go up to the various rooms and see who is pretending to be asleep! ”

"Good!"

She is not a diligent person, she doesn't believe this point at all, and she is still working outside.

"Sister, the door can't be opened." Gu Jing pushed the door hard and turned around and said.

Gu Jiu smiled: "It seems that the door is closed at this time, this lord, you are afraid that someone is hiding inside." ”
