Be a little landlord

Chapter 77

At the same time, more people came to buy books.On the [-]st of every month, the day when the latest issue appeared, there was a long queue at the entrance of Songyun Bookstore. People who looked at it thought it was a store that was having a happy event! Passers-by who didn't know why were amazed.And after they inquired about the result, they were even more surprised. It turned out that this long line was only for one book.

Passers-by wearing hats walked around the team like a dragon's tail several times. After finding out the details of the incident, they couldn't help but lined up behind them: What kind of strange book is this! I'm also here to join in the fun.

The more lively it is, the more lively it is!This has been the case throughout the ages.

Even if Lin Kee Restaurant has free ones, they can't take care of them, they have to watch it first! After reading it in advance, they will have the ability to know the following, and it will make them look superior to others—and some people are extremely satisfied In this superiority.

No matter what, I'll be the first to watch it! ! !

Songyun Bookstore is lively, and Linji Restaurant is even more lively.In the first few days of each month, it is almost overcrowded. There are so many people who come to eat and drink that the threshold is almost empty, and the second floor is full of seats.And on that day in the middle of the month, the answer to the crossword puzzle was revealed, and people who joined in the fun crowded the doorway.The people in the crowd didn't really care much about the answer to the crossword puzzle. Half a month later, the unified answer came out a long time ago. They were more concerned about who was hit by the pie that fell from the sky that day?

The things you can get without spending money are always the most gratifying.

With the progress of the monthly lottery, the prizes for lucky readers have become more and more generous, from food coupons at the beginning, to Quanshui Qitan journals later, and some novel fruits and vegetables-speaking of which, I have to mention Lin Li The lychee and longan planted by Xuan finally bear fruit under his love, and the taste is not bad. The only thing that makes him regret is that the lychee has thin flesh and many cores, but there are so many things that make people happy. okay.The improvement of lychee and other fruits should also be carried out slowly without being too anxious.

The lychee and longan fruit trees at home don’t bear much fruit, so Lin Lixuan doesn’t sell them outside, and keeps them for himself. Brother Yan and Brother Yu can have more snacks in their leisure time. When others see them eating these things, the fruit pulp The white and delicate, transparent flesh is extremely attractive, and the sweetness seems to be emitted from the splashed juice. People around have come to ask: "Boss, what kind of fruit are you eating? When did you eat it?" Do you sell it in the store?"

"Do you want to sell it or not?" It's not enough for the family to eat, how can it be sold for others to eat, Lin Lixuan himself loves to eat lychees, not to mention his foodie baby brother Yan, it's just the two of them , can completely contract all the lychees in the house.

He is not short of money now, the most important thing is to satisfy his own appetite, as for others, he has no choice but to say sorry.

You can only watch but not eat, this is really a cruel thing-especially for foodies, it is really eye-catching.And the only way to get this eye-catching lychee is to participate in the monthly lucky draw. The prizes given by Lin Lixuan are very rich and attractive. The ten catties of fresh and huge lychees almost tempt the foodies around them to salivate.

Why is Lin Lixuan willing to give out ten catties of lychees as a reward?He also had no other choice, because he lost a bet with the foodie customers in the store, and he had no choice but to take out the old man.

The foodies are especially grateful to the customer who beat the boss in a bet. That customer is none other than Huang Yuan in the shop, that bastard Huang Yuan! ! ! !

Huang Yuan laughed and winked at him: "I can win thanks to Brother Yan's help. If you blame him, blame him!"

Lin Lixuan could only look at Brother Yan with resentful eyes: "You actually teamed up with outsiders to bully me."

Brother Yan was smiling happily at the side, but at this time Huang Yuan exposed his crimes. Under Lin Lixuan's eyes of trial, he dodged his eyes and said in a nonchalant way: "Me, me too... Many people in this shop want to eat... ..." Brother Yan couldn't bear to eat alone, especially looking at Huang Yuan's chubby figure, if he ate so much like him, what if he also developed into a ball?

"Don't blame Brother Yan, he is not as hard-hearted as you. As the saying goes, happiness alone is worse than happiness with others, and good things should be shared with everyone... Brother Yan, what do you think?"

Huang Yuan put his hips on his hips and laughed loudly, spat out a piece of melon seed skin, picked up another fried peanut and threw it into his mouth, his appearance was so unbearable that people wanted to shave his face.

"Huang Yuan, you are really good-looking after getting cheap, do you want me to throw you out of the shop?"

Huang Yuan wasn't afraid of his threats, with a smile on his lips: "I'm fat now, can you push it?" He spun around on the spot twice.

"I'm with the big cow in the store, why can't we push you out, we can still send you to the butcher just like carrying piglets!"

"Daniu has a good relationship with me, so he won't lift me. You'd better carry your piggy."

"Hehehe, Daniel, come and carry him with me." How could the guys in our store not listen to the boss's words.

"Hey, are you really so ruthless? This is in public, how can I save face?" Huang Yuan opened his mouth in shock and threw peanuts into his own mouth, but he saw it from the corner of his eye. The figure of Huang Daniu coming over hit him on the chin, which scared the peanut, and rolled several times on the ground.

"Daniu, lift, oh, let me think about it, where do you think the pork stall closest to our store is? Brother Yan, do you know where it is?"

"Just around the corner..."

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu become a gang, I'm so pissed off, ahhh, don't lift up..."

Foodies are looking forward and looking forward, and finally the day of the lottery draw comes. They hope that they will be the lucky ones, and they will be able to monopolize the delicious food under the envious eyes of everyone. Hee hee, pay attention, it must be under the envious eyes of everyone!

The successful winner of that day was a scholar in his 30s. He got the ten catties of lychees and held a bamboo basket containing them. Hold the basket and ask everyone around to come over and take a look.

"Come and take a look, look at how fresh it is, wow, it's so rosy! But you can only look at it but not touch it, hey, retract your hand quickly, don't crush my little fruit..."

His friend smiled next to him: "We are friends, we have the same blessings and share the same hardships, you have had such great luck today, can you let me have a taste..."

"No, no, this is exclusive to me. Hey, you can only watch it, but if you want to taste it, then watch me eat it. You can feel the taste by watching me eat it " The man frantically pushed a piece away and put it in his mouth, squinting his eyes ripplingly, with a look of enjoyment on his face, he didn't just eat it, he even made his saliva slobber.Li Zhi has to express his self-satisfaction in both sound and visual angles, which really attracts the people around him... I can't wait to step forward and beat him up.

...Finally someone came forward. He couldn't understand this flamboyant friend, so he took a handful out of the basket and ran away, "Since we are best friends, you don't need to say that I just took it away." ..."

"You, you, you, wait for me!"

When the people around saw that someone had become a pioneer, they rubbed their hands and couldn't help but want to learn from the demeanor of the predecessors.Surrounded by a pack of wolves, the man who was chattering just now didn't care about chasing after the stolen friend, and hurriedly protected the things in his arms, and the whole person rushed out of the crowd like a wild horse that had run loose.

The thief ran so fast that it attracted a group of onlookers to be amazed!

"See if he still shows off!"

In the long queue, the magazines of Songyun Bookstore are very popular. If you have not read it, you should buy it. If you have read it for free at Lin Kee Restaurant, you should buy it. Why do you still want to buy it?It is because some people have tasted the sweetness.

What sweetness? ...Naturally, it is the sweetness of being a scalper.

Those who are attracted later want to read the previous content, but they can’t buy it in the bookstore. There is no other way, can’t they just buy it from those who bought it before?

"I want to see the previous issues. Are there any previous issues in your store? Why is there only this month's issue? You, that tall guy, can I ask you something?"

"After reading so many fragments of stories, it really made me curious. What happened before? Your store is not kind. Why do you only keep the books of the current month and not the previous ones?"

"Hey, hey, don't question the buddy, this store only sells the current month... Look at the cover, it's sold on a monthly basis, and it won't be sold after the current month has passed."

"Where do I have to go to see the old one?"

"Someone bought it, you can borrow it from them."

"This enthusiastic big brother, do you know who has it?"

The original Quanshui Qitan has been sold for three taels of silver, and there are really outsiders who are willing to buy it at a high price.

A poor scholar bought a copy with all his heart before, and now he sold it at a high price and made a huge profit, but he didn't get too excited.When some people saw that he had made a profit, they followed suit one after another, and bought one after the first issue was released, hoping to earn a scalper's price difference.

"Old Shui, why did you spend so much money today? How could you be willing to order so many dishes?"

"You don't know he makes a lot of money..."

"what money?"

"It was selling the previous Quan Shui Qi Tan, and he bought every issue. There happened to be a wealthy businessman who liked this book but couldn't buy the previous ones, so he bought the previous set from him, and he made a lot of money! "

"Drink, that's terrible."

"Haha, when I bought it, you thought I was stupid, now you know! It's not unreasonable for stupid people to have stupid blessings."

Regarding this matter, the biggest scalper... Lin Lixuan, who had hoarded hundreds or thousands of copies, made a huge profit. Not only did he get back his capital, but he also made a huge profit.

But Lin Lixuan knew that this was not conducive to long-term development, so he stopped after making a lot of money, and then proceeded to the next stage of the plan.

He is going to open a new bookstore in Quanshui County. All the old books eliminated by Songyun Bookstore will be brought into the store, and the strange stories of Quanshui over the past few months will also be placed in the bookstore for people to borrow.

Renting books can be rented for one penny for one day. Residents who know the basics of Quanshui County can borrow books as long as they show their faces, while people from other places who are not familiar with them have to pay a deposit to rent books.

For Lin Lixuan's move, he was most grateful to some poor scholars in Quanshui County. They couldn't afford a book, but they could afford to rent it for a day or two.

There is a poor student named Chu Qing who likes to borrow books. He likes to read books but can’t afford them on weekdays. In seven days, he rented it back not only to read, but also to copy the books. He really worked hard and forgot to sleep and eat to copy the books.

He kept on writing, and insisted on copying books under the oil lamp even when his hands were frozen in winter. Five years later, he successfully passed the county and state examinations. Why did others get such results from him?He just said that he was grateful for the existence of this rental bookstore.

"I can also be regarded as contributing to the local cultural people."

There are more and more people in Quanshui County who like to read books, and gradually some people are interested in contributing. From the very beginning, Lin Lixuan could not receive a single manuscript, and then the manuscripts were flying all over the sky like snowflakes.

He dug out many talented authors and published their manuscripts on it. Most of the authors of these manuscripts are ordinary scholars. Having this way to get money is like sending charcoal in time for them.

With more manuscripts, the content of each issue of Quanshui Qitan will be richer, more fans will like it, and the journal will spread more and more widely.Later, Quanshui Qitan, which was published only once a month, could no longer satisfy their one-month reading needs. At the strong request of many people, Lin Lixuan added a supplement.

The content of the supplementary issue is different from that of the main issue. The content of the main issue is varied and all-encompassing, and one can write about anything. However, this supplementary issue newly set by Lin Lixuan is mainly inclined to emotional content. In order to promote this supplementary issue, Lin Lixuan even participated in the battle Wrote a legendary novel of entanglement with the local background and the theme of "War between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law".

How the mother-in-law suppresses the new daughter-in-law, how the daughter-in-law resists the mother-in-law's hegemony face to face and behind the scenes, and the husband who is caught in the middle can't be sideways. .

He portrayed the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law vividly, and the battle of wits and courage involved all the hearts of the audience, making people unable to extricate themselves from watching.

As soon as this serial novel came out, I don’t know how many people’s jaws were shocked. When they went out and swept it, the snow-white teeth that fell on the ground could be called a hill!

"Why do I, a student with an open mind, indulge in this kind of novel?"

"This book has a wonderful charm that attracts me to read it."

"Looking at this book, I am really moved. My husband and I are also facing a dilemma..."

"Choose a fart, you make it sound like you're married, do you have a wife?"

"...Didn't I rehearse here in advance... As the saying goes, be prepared and avoid danger..."

... "I feel the same way as the daughter-in-law inside, my mother-in-law has gone too far than her..."

"Yeah, it's really hard to marry into someone else's family."

"It's okay for you women, it's really difficult for us to be twins!"

As soon as this article was published, it attracted a lot of female judges, all of whom felt the same way, and those who liked to hear and see. The more sturdy one was an illiterate woman. Although she could not read, she heard the neighbor next door said it was interesting So she dragged her son, who was not yet 12 years old, to the second floor to read books. She sat there with a big face, drinking tea and eating melon seeds, while her poor child read to his mother with a book.

As soon as such a spectacle appeared, more interested people came to watch it.

And Lin Lixuan, who created this wonderful story, also received strange looks from the people around him. Huang Yuan held the book and laughed at him for several days, "Big brother, I didn't expect you to be like a pie every day." It’s such a torment in the middle, I haven’t noticed it all the time, I really can’t guess it.”

Huang Yuan took a sip of tea like an uncle, and commented sharply: "It takes a certain experience to write such a true story, right?"

Lin Lixuan clutched his forehead and sighed endlessly, writing this kind of book does not require any life experience, as long as he sprinkles dog blood vigorously, sprinkle dog blood infinitely, he can make up a happy story of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

It's also his own fault. When he wrote this novel, he had the idea that he could write as weird as he could, but it turned out to be so weird that he wrote a lot of emotional resonance. Many people thought that the background of this story was It was rewritten based on the real events that happened in reality, which made Lin Lixuan sigh: It can be said that one mistake will cause eternal hatred!

After writing it, I wrote it, not only did it become popular, but he almost became the ancient version of "Friends of Women", which is really scary!Now some people still speculate that he is a poor daughter-in-law oppressed by her mother-in-law. What a pity, he doesn't know who to turn to to explain.

His family is harmonious, there is really no war between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but people don't believe it, they come over to inquire about the details of their family, even if they know the truth, they have to come over and make fun of it secretly.

"Hey, is this Boss Lin's husband? It looks very gentle..."

"Yeah, it doesn't look sharp at all!"

"How can you only look at the surface when looking at people..."

"Maybe he's at home...hehehehe..."

Brother Yan was terrified of being looked at by others in the store. After receiving strange looks for several days, he finally couldn't bear to stay at home and not come out to be prying.

"Brother Lin, don't write such inexplicable things in the future!!!"

Lin Lixuan: "..."

The twists and turns of the wonderful story just make people like it. Later, this wonderful novel spread to Bixi Village, and even the villagers knew what it contained...

After the trouble became known to everyone, the book finally reached Zhao Liniang's ears. She brought Lin Lixuan to her and taught him a lesson, as if Lin Lixuan who had committed a shocking crime was openly criticized in public: "Before you In your eyes, brother Yan and I are like this?"

Brother Yu covered his mouth and smiled behind him, his big grape-like eyes rolled around, he secretly looked at Brother Yan's face next to him, Brother Yan and him looked at each other, the two somewhat similar faces were smiling meaning.

Zhao Liniang crossed her hips and stared at her. Lin Lixuan was looked helpless by her, and took a step back, trying to explain the situation, but the other party didn't let him speak at all, and there were a lot of crackling words on his head and face, like rushing raindrops , Drenched him straight: "Am I that fierce? Brother Yan is as cunning as a fox?... Do you know? Everyone in our village has read what you wrote, and how do they look at me? Ah, there are also some inexplicable people who suddenly came up to me when I was selling chickens and told me, just to that powerful mother-in-law, I knew that the chicken you raised must be delicious... This chicken, the fiercer it is, Chicken tastes better."

"It's hard for you to be caught in the middle, right? Did Brother Yan and I make it difficult for you?" Zhao Liniang's crackling words were as long and loud as the firecrackers set off on the roadside during the Chinese New Year.

While talking about him, Zhao Liniang poked him between the eyebrows with her index finger. For a while, she felt like she had gotten into a honeycomb, and for a while, she seemed to have turned into a watermelon, letting others knock and knock.

"Didn't I make it up..."

"How can you write so vividly...Everyone else said that, and they said it must be your personal experience!"

"Mother, you get along with me day and night every day, do you think I have experienced this personally?"

"Why haven't you experienced it? I think that this is what you wrote based on the facts..."

"How is it possible, your relationship with Brother Yan..." Lin Lixuan felt that Zhao Liniang was joking with him, maybe he was confused by anger, or he was making fun of him like the villagers.

"They all said... In this book, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fight wits all day long, isn't it our family? You are not the one who fights wits with me every day?" The more Zhao Liniang thought about it, the more she felt that this was the truth. It's too much, dare to include his mother in the book, it's too annoying not to teach her a lesson.

"..." Lin Lixuan was almost stunned by her divine logic!What is the difference between applying the things in the story to yourself and superstitious fortune-telling and word testing! !At the beginning, if you look at things with colored eyes, it will naturally become more and more like it. If you are suspicious, ghosts will come true.

In the Lin family, it was usually Lin Lixuan who choked Zhao Liniang to the point of speechlessness, but now, Zhao Liniang's proficiency has grown, she has reached the point of proficiency, and she has the strength to resist. Say something.

"Then according to you, mother, I'm the daughter-in-law who looks like a vixen with sharp teeth and sharp mouth. Are you that wicked mother-in-law?" Lin Lixuan twitched the corners of his mouth invisibly, and after he finished speaking, he turned his head. Look at Brother Yan: "Then Brother Yan is the vacillating husband standing between the two of you."

Brother Yu burst out laughing.

Zhao Liniang put her hands on her hips and raised her chin, "Isn't that right? You kid has a wicked heart..."

Lin Lixuan, who was said to be a villain, walked away as if his legs were oiled, and with a feint under his feet, he touched Brother Yan and Brother Yu, holding one person with each hand.

"Let's go, let's go in and eat. Just ignore our mother and let her continue to be intoxicated outside alone. Don't really become the evil mother-in-law in the book. Brother Yan, then you have to be careful!"

"...My relationship with Brother Yan is good, don't provoke our relationship!"

Except for this somewhat legendary novel about mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the content of the supplement is mainly about the love between a man and a woman, which is lingering and pathetic, and has attracted countless daughters and their families.

What kind of gifted scholar and beautiful woman meet again in the golden wind and jade dew, what childhood sweethearts reunite after 18 years, what is right and wrong, what is still like a person in a spring girl's dream who is looking forward to the king's return and the journey will not return...

When you love me again, I love you. When you love me, I don’t love you. When I love you, you have a new person. After going through vicissitudes, people are not as good as new clothes. One after another, even if it is a false story, it makes people sink in it and feel deeply.

In this way, the supplement of Quanshui Qitan has become one of the leisure books for many sentimental girls and Shuang'er after dinner. Even if they are illiterate, they have to pester their brothers and friends to tell them.

"I want to read the story of Chunyangzi and Liu Qinglan. How will their ending be?"

"I didn't expect this rich young man to be a heartless person again."

"The goblin and the scholar, this little goblin would lose his soul because of the scholar, I see...I'm so sad..."

"Ah! These sad endings are so heartbreaking. I want to write for him to revise them myself. I want them to be together."

The ancient old-fashioned people did not allow their daughters to read these messy emotional miscellaneous books, but where there is oppression, there will be resistance. If you don’t let me read it clearly, then I will read it secretly. Anyway, I can’t help her!

In an exquisite boudoir, Shuang'er in blue clothes pulled his cousin whom he hadn't seen for a long time to get together, and he couldn't wait to pull on the other's sleeve, "Sister Liu, have you brought it?"

The cousin gave him a knowing look, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Don't worry, I brought it for you. Let's watch it together. Let me tell you, there is one in this issue..."

The monthly supplement is quite small... After all, there are not many literate twins and women, and not every man likes to read these emotional stories related to love and love.

Lin Lixuan thought of this scene, but what he didn't expect was that there were so many manuscripts for the supplement, all of which were submitted by some talented twins and girls. They were more active than anyone else, and it was rare that one A place where they can entrust their feelings.

What he didn't expect was the fandom that was born naturally. The ending of the supplement was more tragic, and some people were not satisfied. Most people wrote to say that they wanted to rewrite the ending, continue to write the ending, and start it when their hands itch Come on, Lin Lixuan was really speechless when he received so many sequels.

The number of supplements has gradually grown, and an author who specializes in love stories has become very popular. This is already two years after the release of Quanshui Qitan. She can be said to be the ancient version of the romance queen. The author is as blue as jade, and the stories of men and women written are extremely touching, and most of the endings are tragic. Bo Xingnan and the infatuated woman are deeply moved, and all the infatuated female fans are very emotional. Feeling sympathetic, many people agreed that this Rulan Siyu was emotionally hurt and betrayed by a scumbag, so she wrote such a story.

What makes Lin Lixuan dumbfounded is that Songyun Bookstore has received many spontaneous letters from readers, all of which are ardent care and love for Mr. Rulan Siyu.

When Lin Lixuan sent someone to send the author's manuscript fee, he heard the person's name mentioned by someone in the store, so it sounded familiar! He said her name silently, and only then did he realize that the author was as beautiful as blue and jade. He is still an old acquaintance, the kind of old acquaintance who has heard it several times but has never seen the real person.
