Hong Jipu was not too worried when he heard this, and said comfortingly:

"Don't worry about it, my Jinling Bookstore has been operating in Anxi County for many years, and many book buyers are frequent customers with feelings, which are not easy to lose, and Shengda Bookstore is mainly engaged in short story collection publications, which is obviously to avoid our edge, and there is no blind competition. ”

Jin Quanguo was reminded by him like this, and he was a little relieved, but he was still not very relieved.

Just when the two of them were talking about this topic in the bookstore, a dignified son suddenly appeared at the door of Shen Qi's Shengda bookstore, he was wearing a gorgeous satin shirt and his long braids were neatly combed.

"You are?"

Shen Qi saw that this person was in his twenties, but he looked quite young and old, and he could still see the subtle power of the pen shining on the palm of his hand.

"It's like that. ”

This young man was generous and decent, walked in the door, and first politely greeted Shen Qi.

As soon as Shen Qi heard this name, his mind was full of thoughts, and he roughly confirmed that this person was Chen Tianbao's nephew, and if nothing else, the entire Shengda Money Village would be passed on to him in the future.

So Shen Qi smiled and said politely:

"It turned out to be the owner of Chen Shaozhuang, fortunately, I heard earlier that you had left Anxi County, why did you appear here late at night?"

Chen Xiangru is more sleek, inconspicuous and leaky:

"Originally, I was indeed going to rush back to Quanzhou, but because I admired you as a ghost, I specially turned back to see you. ”

Chen Xiangru said, his eyes moved away from Shen Qi's body, and when he saw that the hall had been almost arranged, he said:

"I heard that the shopkeeper Shen founded the "Kyushu Qi Magazine", and I look forward to it, and when the publication is printed, I will definitely buy a copy. ”

Although Chen Xiangru didn't say anything unpleasant, Shen Qi felt that he was unhappy with him, thinking that it was because Chen Tianbao once said that he would accept him as his son-in-law, and he was worried that his identity as an heir would not be guaranteed.

"Thanks to the young owner, I hope you can introduce other friends to join the party. ”

After Shen Qi finished speaking, Chen Xiangru abruptly changed the topic, and sure enough, he talked about that matter:

"Shopkeeper Shen is young and promising, I heard that my uncle is going to marry one of my three sisters, Chen Lin, Chen Rong, and Chen Wan, I don't know who you fancied, say it, I will give you a few good words. ”

Faced with his question, Shen Qi thought of the appearance of the Chen family's three thousand gold, and he actually felt a little beautiful in his heart, but he was always committed to Zou Manshan, so he shook his head and smiled:

"I think Master Chen Shaozhuang has misunderstood, I already have a marriage contract, so naturally it is impossible to have any thoughts about the three young ladies, that would be an offense to them. ”

"Haha, Shopkeeper Shen is so infatuated, but in the future, you may feel that only one wife is not enough, if you want me to say, three wives and four concubines are not a big deal, you can marry one of my three sisters first, and then take the woman who has a marriage contract as a concubine, so it can be regarded as benevolence and righteousness." ”

Chen Xiang revealed the essence of the smiling tiger at such a moment, chasing Shen Qi and constantly pressing, it seemed that he was still not at ease with Shen Qi.

Shen Qi knew his thoughts, and still calmly followed his heart's desire and refused:

"Don't talk about it anymore, I can't afford that glamorous blessing. ”

Chen Xiangru was secretly happy when he got this answer, and then he thought about leaving, he still had a lot of things to deal with in Quanzhou.

"Young owner, please go slowly. ”

Just as Chen Xiangru walked to the door of Shengda Bookstore, Shen Qi suddenly stopped him, making him think that Shen Qi had changed his mind.

However, Shen Qi's next words immediately dispelled his uneasiness:

"That's right, since Shaozhuang is mainly returning to Quanzhou, can you bring a message to the prefect for me, just say that I am preparing to set up the "Kyushu Qi Journal", and I hope that he can write a publication for me, and I will thank you very much. ”

Chen Xiangru raised his eyebrows and smiled when he heard this, he was very familiar with the prefect, and this matter was easy to handle.

"No problem, when I go back, I will immediately visit Governor Ye to inform me of this. ”

In this way, Chen Xiangru, who was very deep in the city, was sent away, and Shen Qi ordered the servant to close the door of the shop and returned to the room in the backyard.

He sat down at his desk, found pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and prepared to write something. This time, I didn't write any notices, but I wanted to create a popular novel and engrave it on the "Kyushu Qi Magazine".

Although popular novels have been the largest readership since ancient times, after all, his publication is not well-known, and if he has his own works on it, it will definitely attract many readers to snap up.

Shen Qi thought for a while, and chose the latter between the Zhiwei novel and the romance novel, this kind of novel is not easy to shine, and he is worried that he will not be able to collect excellent manuscripts.

Finally, after careful consideration, Shen Qi focused his attention on "Journey to the West", a popular novel of gods and demons, which he had borrowed from Li Guangdi's house and was attracted by the many characters in it.

And the romance novel he wants to create has "Mantangjiao" as the protagonist, and these three words alone can attract a lot of attention.

In "Journey to the West", Man Tangjiao is the biological mother of Tang Seng, originally named Yin Wenjiao, and the daughter of Yin Kaishan, the prime minister of the Tang Taizong period. It's just that the beauty didn't die well, and finally committed suicide, but with the social atmosphere at the time, maybe it wasn't a tragedy, after all, she protected her name with death.

Shen Qi set his world romance novel as a long story and serialized it in "Kyushu Qi Magazine", and after it became famous, he would arrange for Liu Hanchang and several people to print and publish this novel separately, so the name was set as "The First Moment of Mantangjiao", which is the first part of Mantangjiao's novel.

I saw that in the candlelight shaking bookstore, Shen Qi was sitting precariously, dipped in ink and then took up the pen to brew a little, and then wrote down the opening chapter:

However, it was said that Chen Guangrui, the champion of the new department, was personally given by the Tang King's royal pen to enjoy the three-day cross-horse parade street, and unexpectedly swam to the gate of Prime Minister Yin Kaishan. At that time, the prime minister had a daughter, called Wen Jiao, also known as Mantang Jiao, who had never been married, and was building a colorful building in front of the door, throwing hydrangeas to recruit relatives.

Chen Guangrui walked downstairs at this moment, and the hall was full of people who saw him as a talent, and he was dressed in brocade clothes, knowing that he was the champion of the new department, and he was very happy in his heart. Seeing her pretty face, she threw down the hydrangea with her slender hand, and it was falling on the top of her black gauze hat.

The champion was hit by the hydrangea, flattered, and looked at the Cai Lou with his eyes, but saw the full hall standing against the building, his eyes were shy. Looking closely, Guangrui was stunned, and saw that Miss Wen Jiao's face was like a bright moon, her eyes were like autumn waves, and her cherry mouth was matched with a green willow soft waist.

Listening to the joyful sound of the sheng flute, dozens of happy maids walked downstairs, grabbed the head of the horse under the light seat, and called the uncle into the prime minister's mansion. When Guangrui saw the prime minister and his wife, he called a full house of guests, and matched the shy full house with him.

......

Shen Qi gradually entered the state, and unconsciously wrote in the second half of the night, and the text had reached 1,000 words.

This "The First Moment of Mantangjiao", Shen Qi chose to start from Mantangjiao deliberately throwing a hydrangea to hit the new champion Chen Guangrui, describing in detail how they met and met, got married and entered the orchid room, and then because Guangrui was awarded the lord of Jiangzhou, he took Mantang Jiao to leave the prime minister's mansion, and went to Jiangzhou with his wife. During this period, when Mantang Jiao saw that her husband was killed, she was about to throw herself into the water to die, and then because she was pregnant, she had to reluctantly obey. After that, Mantangjiao gave birth to a son, worried about Liu Hong's persecution, so he sent the baby away with the water, and also wrote a blood letter, biting off the little finger of the child's left foot as evidence, hoping to recognize each other in the future. This son is the later Xuanzang.

The protagonist of the whole story is not Xuanzang, but describes in detail how the widowed and lost her son Mantangjiao lived beside the gangster Liu Hong for eighteen years, and finally the mother and son recognized each other, Liu Hong was punished, and the husband was also rescued by the dragon king and came back from the dead, but Mantangjiao, who was supposed to be able to reunite with his family, finally chose to commit suicide calmly, teaching people not to know whether to be happy or sad.

Shen Qi's manuscript has been completed, and by the time dawn, "The First Moment of the House" has been written twice, totaling thousands of words.

But just after Shen Qi worked hard to write for a night, he suddenly stood up, and the palm of the pen suddenly shone brightly, only to feel that his pen power had to be promoted again.

This time, Shen Qi practiced the pen power to a height of two feet and one foot, and the talent in his brain was like a spring, and the power between the strokes was even more powerful.

"Good news, shopkeeper!"

Just when Shen Qi, who had not slept all night and was still full of energy, was promoted by his pen power, Liu Hanchang's surprised voice sounded outside the door, and when he opened the door, he found that Liu Hanchang, Liu Yichuan, Liu Jiadong, and Liu Cuiru were all gathered at the door.

"What?"

Shen Qi put down the pen and asked the four of them to come in and talk, and at the same time handed over the first time to Liu Yichuan to transcribe the first "First Moment of the Full House" on the table, and then handed it over to the boss Liu Hanchang to carve it out with a wooden board.

Liu Hanchang and the four of them originally had the manuscript they received early in the morning, and they were all surprised to see that Shen Qi had personally written a novel about the world. When they finished reading this first episode, the four of them felt very wonderful, with the gods and demons novel "Journey to the West" as the protagonist, to write a tear-jerking and haunting world novel, but it is an excellent idea, and there will be many people who are willing to buy it.

Especially after the youngest Liu Cuiru watched it, she was directly moved by the story of Man Tangjiao and Chen Guangrui tying the knot, she is the age to be married in the boudoir, and she likes this kind of story very much. The scene of a rich lady marrying a champion like this is very popular among the people, which probably caters to the extravagant expectations of people at that time, intentionally or unintentionally.

"Shopkeeper, you are so talented, this "First Moment Full of Beauty" must be the most attractive in "Kyushu Qi Magazine"!"

Liu Cuiru couldn't put it down and snatched the original manuscript from her brother's hand to watch it, and did not forget to praise Shen Qi, seeing her reaction, Shen Qi said with a smile:

"You came to me together, shouldn't you have come to praise me?"

When Liu Hanchang heard this, he remembered that there were still a lot of manuscripts in his hand, most of which were created by some scholars overnight and sent to the door in person.

"Shopkeeper, you see, I've already received ten Zhiwei novels in the morning. ”

Taking these manuscripts from his hand, Shen Qi flipped through them and found that there were no romance novels, and it seemed that it was right to write one by himself.

"Very good, you go down first, we will be busy in a few days, and we will try to engrave the publication in two months in advance, so as to ensure that the distribution of "Kyushu Qi Journal" will not be affected by accidents. ”

With more than a dozen manuscripts in hand, Shen Qiping retired the four brothers and sisters of the Liu family, ready to take a look at it now. The top priority is to find a literati who can be cultivated, after all, a publication cannot be supported by him alone, which is also abnormal.
