Although he hadn't seen the flower girl herself, Shen Qi was already fantasizing about the future, and the four brothers and sisters of Liu Hanchang, who saw the shopkeeper coming in, hurriedly stopped and saw him holding a manuscript in his hand.

"Shopkeeper, what excites you so much?"

The questioner was Liu Hanchang, who had already begun to carve wooden boards, and this "First Engraved Full Hall" was serialized, so it was longer than the others, with more than 2,000 words.

"That's a good question, there's a piece of "Xiaoxiao Twilight Rain", you can help see if it's good enough. ”

Shen Qi treats them as readers, if they all think it is good, then it is really good, after all, people have their own preferences, sometimes he thinks it is good, but in the eyes of others, it may not be like that.

When the four siblings heard that there was another novel to read, they were overjoyed, and they gathered around to stare at this lightly scented manuscript and read it carefully. Since following Shen Qi, they have unconsciously become more interested in reading.

After a while, Shen Qi estimated that it was time for them to finish reading, but at this moment, he suddenly found that the eldest Liu Hanchang and the second Liu Yichuan were about to break out of the palm of the pen holding the pen, but the two of them had not yet noticed that the pen power essence was hidden again.

At this time, I heard Liu Hanchang look up after reading the last word and said:

"Okay, although this writing is a little immature, but the story is really moving, after reading it, I feel that the flower girl herself is gently caressing my chest, and the detailed and complex feeling is difficult to describe. ”

After him, Liu Yichuan, Liu Jiadong, and Liu Cuiru expressed their feelings after watching it, Shen Qi understood that there was indeed a market for this article, and he was looking forward to seeing the girl in the flower as soon as possible, and discussing the matters later.

At the same time, in the backyard of Shengda Bookstore, a cheerful laugh suddenly sounded, and then Zhang Yaowen's shout was heard:

"Haha, shopkeeper Shen come out quickly, and this county will also contribute!"

Shen Qi didn't expect that this call for papers would attract Zhang Yaowen, so he hurriedly went out to greet him, and said with both hands:

"The county magistrate is so Yaxing, aren't you joking?"

Zhang Yaowen pretended to be displeased when he heard this, staring at Shen Qi waving a stack of manuscript papers in his hand and said:

"What is this shopkeeper Shen, look at the manuscript in the hands of this county, how can it be fake!"

Shen Qi believed it, and took the manuscript with some expectation and looked at it carefully.

This Zhang Yaowen was born in the top three Jinshi in his early years, and his writing is indeed not weak, and with his experience, what he wrote is naturally a Zhiwei novel.

Shen Qi watched carefully, and Zhang Yaowen didn't even dare to breathe next to him, for fear that it would disturb him to understand his words accurately.

As Shen Qi read page by page, the expression on his face continued to change slightly, and finally his eyes widened, and he read the manuscript from beginning to end again, so that Zhang Yaowen next to him didn't know what he meant.

Shen Qi had already finished reading Zhang Yaowen's thousand-word essay for the first time, and wrote a ghost novel called "The Ghost Official", with his own experience in it.

The specific content is to write about a man named Fang Cai who died in his sleep and became a ghost official after entering the Netherworld. In just one day after taking office, Fang Cai described what he saw and heard from his own perspective, all of which were boring and casual things, but in this slightly absurd style, Shen Qi realized the words that Zhang Yaowen did not say explicitly.

Although there is nothing intense about this kind of ghost novel, it can be used as the first article at the beginning of "Kyushu Qi Magazine", after all, there are differences in the articles in a journal, and most readers should be able to understand the meaning of Zhang Yaowen.

At this time, Shen Qi finished reading it for the second time, holding this "Ghost Official" and nodding with satisfaction:

"The county order has depth, this article can be included in my "Kyushu Qi Journal"!"

Shen Qi didn't expect to get another draft today, and he was quite happy, so he immediately took out five yuan from his arms, and said to Zhang Yaowen with a smile:

"Our Shengda Bookstore pays attention to faithfulness, since we have accepted the manuscript, we will definitely pay the manuscript fee, which is five cents, I hope the adults will laugh and accept it. ”

When Zhang Yaowen saw these five cents, he should have been disdainful, but today is different, this is the first manuscript fee he has obtained in his lifetime, so he naturally has to accept it, and then collect it.

In order to make the value of these five coins more obvious, Zhang Yaowen also held the five coins and asked:

"Shopkeeper Shen, to pay for the manuscript, you should use an envelope dedicated to your Shengda Bookstore to wrap it. ”

When Shen Qi heard this, he remembered that Shengda Bookstore did have a special envelope, and ordered the servant to find one and handed it to the county magistrate.

"That's good, with this envelope as proof, I, Zhang Yaowen, will also be the one who has published the article!"

Zhang Yaowen was very proud, happy like a child.

But then another accident happened, only to hear an eight-year-old boy at the door of the bookstore suddenly waving a stack of manuscript paper and unceremoniously and loudly:

"Nephew and son-in-law, your little uncle and I also want to publish an article!"

The words were shocking, Shen Qi's whole person was stunned, he saw a boy with long braids making a childish voice, holding a stack of manuscript paper and going straight to the backyard of Shengda Bookstore, seeing Shen Qi also showed an indisobedient expression, as if Shen Qi dared to say half a word, he would be furious.

At this moment, everyone looked at Shen Qi curiously, Zhang Yaowen and Liu Hanchang and others in the house didn't know that this eight-year-old boy was Shen Qi's little uncle, and what they didn't know was that Shen Qi didn't know this kid at all.

So Shen Qi looked at the cute-looking eight-year-old boy, squatted down and said curiously:

"What's your little baby's name, and why do you call me my nephew and son-in-law?"

As he spoke, Shen Qi also took the manuscript paper in his hand, and couldn't help but laugh after looking at it.

It turned out that there were some ghost-like handwriting on it, horizontal and vertical, shaped like earthworms. Shen Qi worked hard to identify it, so he could recognize that it was some famous sayings such as "At the beginning of man, nature is good" copied by this boy who had never known him.

The eight-year-old boy was confused by Shen Qi's laughter, touched the back of his head and asked sharply:

"Nephew and son-in-law, do you dare to laugh at your uncle, is the article I wrote bad?"

At this moment, Shen Qi no longer knew how to deal with this little baby, so he couldn't hold back a smile and replied:

"This is an article you wrote? I don't read much, don't lie to me. ”

But this kid didn't restrain at all, and his immature little face showed a vicious expression and continued:

"Niece and son-in-law, you are so bold, don't think I don't know that you are laughing at me, believe it or not, I will ask my sister not to marry Shan'er's niece to you!"

When these words came out, Shen Qi was stunned, and suddenly remembered something in his mind, daring to love this eight-year-old boy was really a little uncle he had never seen.

The "Shan'er" in this little baby's mouth must be Zou Manshan, earlier he heard from Zou Manshan that his grandfather was old and had a son, and gave birth to a little uncle Liu Ruiguang, who was more than 20 years younger than Zou Manshan's mother-in-law Liu Huilan.
