Chapter 804: Turmoil in the bookstore
"Since it's not for copyright, and it's not for anti-books, then why are they looking for me?" said Li Hugo with a frown.
"Anyway, it's not a good thing for Tongming Temple to find people, so how can Tongming Temple be a place where everyone can enter and exit casually? No matter how arrogant a person is, if he goes in and stands up, he has to lie down and come out, I see...... Maybe some big officials in the capital also want to seek cooperation, after all, young master, you have such a great talent, and the most valuable thing is what is in your head, and Tongming Temple recruits people, we can't help but be wary, right?"
Li Hugo nodded: "In this case, the bookstore will be temporarily suspended for a while, but recently our Jiuxiao City has been very lively, I heard that there is another big thief in this Jiuxiao City, do you know?"
"Why don't you know, he committed a crime within the boundaries of our Jiuxiao City, killed a lot of escorted officers and soldiers, and also robbed the emperor's bar, this matter can be very troublesome, and now the prefect is worried about this matter, I heard that his servants are looking for clues every day. Master Zhang said, "Could it be that the young master knows the inside story?"
"Didn't I need inspiration for writing a book, maybe I could use this sad thing as material, if you know some hidden secrets, you can tell me, and these plots will definitely be popular with everyone at that time. Li Hugo said.
Master Zhang suddenly realized: "I see, but what is certain is that now the gray bones are still hidden in our Jiuxiao City, but today we received a secret treasure, saying that several scouts from Tongming Temple are missing......
Li Hugo knew that Lord Zhang was talking about what happened last night, after all, he was a person from Tongming Temple, everyone had a record, and the six big living people said that they were gone, and they could hide for a while, but they couldn't hide for a lifetime.
"Tongming Temple is a saint directly under the sage, young master, no matter how you toss, don't mess with the people there, otherwise you won't be able to help you. Master Zhang said.
"What do you say about this, my purpose is very simple, it is just to make money...... By the way, Mr. Zhang is here, just to give you this month's money. Li Hugo beckoned his subordinates, and several people handed over a wooden box, which contained five large ingots, each of which was worth a hundred taels of silver.
Master Zhang laughed, and said with a smile while guarding the box: "It's okay, the young master and I have been cooperating for so long, it's the same if you give it later, give it later!"
"Where, where. Li Hugo smiled, and after a few more gossips, Master Zhang left.
Looking at the back of Lord Zhang, Li Hugo also understands that the reason why this Lord Zhang is so attentive to himself is also because of the face of silver, everyone in this world seeks wealth, if Li Hugo's underground bookstore here is confiscated, for Lord Zhang, it is really harmful and not beneficial, so Zhang Dacai is so protective of Li Hugo's underground bookstore.
He is only twenty or thirty taels a month as a bookstore manager, but with Li Hugo, he can get five hundred taels of silver a month.
Although for Li Hugo, this is a drop in the bucket, but for Master Zhang, this is a huge amount of money, so how could he let go of Li Hugo's cash cow?
"Lord Zhang is nominally here to report the news, but in fact he is here to ask for money every month, just to find an excuse. Li Zhong said.
Li Hugo put down the teacup and said, "It's okay, the news he gave is not worthless." ”
"Young Master, since the update of "Dajin Fengyunlu" is going to be suspended, what should we do next? Could it be that we will stop the business of the bookstore and dismiss the brothers?" Li Zhong said.
Li Hugo got up and came to the overgrown yard, he glanced at the sky, and it was still clear: "Since Dajin Fengyunlu has been watched, why don't we change the book?"
"Change the book?" Li Zhong's eyes widened, "Do you have any other plans?"
"I vaguely remember some episodes, what are they called...... By the way, it's called 'Blissful Little Corpse Girl', and I'm going to sort out the first manuscript in the past two days, and you can take it and print it." Li Hugo said.
"Yes!" Li Zhong said respectfully.
"You and I have been with me for six years, and I have nothing to give you, you are fully responsible for this book, and you will be entitled to give you one-third of the profit at that time. Li Hugo said.
"Don't dare, if it wasn't for the young master's rescue, I'm afraid I would have been thrown into the wilderness. Li Zhong said humbly.
It turned out that Li Zhong was not the guard house arranged for Li Hugo to be raised by Li Hugo, he was a slave, it seems that he used to be a general, a few years older than Li Hugo, he was defeated in a war, and then he was sold by Li Hugo's father with the intention of selling it at a high price.
Later, after Li Hugo saw this person, he actually remembered Guan Yunfan at the beginning, so he asked his father to reward him.
Originally, Li Zhong was going to arrange other places, after all, as a slave, his best outcome was to become the guardian of the big family, but more efforts may be sent to some hard labor places, such as quarries, coal mines and other coolie places, such places usually have to die within a few years.
Li Hugo did not hesitate to turn his face with his father to save Li Zhong, so Li Zhong changed his name and surname, and also followed Li Hugo's surname Li, and then abandoned his previous identity and was loyal to Li Hugo.
Don't look at Li Zhong's age, but he is also a martial arts master, and he is also the closest person to Li Hugo.
Li Zhong's past Li Hugo doesn't know, and he doesn't want to know, he just needs to know that Li Zhong is loyal to him now.
"There is no need to mention the past, now that you are settled in this Nine Heavens City, do you have any plans to settle a family here?" Li Hugo said.
"Li Zhong has been with the young master in this life and this life, Li Zhong's life was given by the young master, just a family, and it will become a weakness of Li, so Li does not need a family. Li Zhong bowed his head and said.
Li Hugo laughed, and did not directly answer Li Zhong's words, at the same time, Bai Guwai said, "Young Master, aren't you going to the academy?"
"Hey, I forgot about this matter, the old man is afraid that he will be annoyed again, let's take a walk...... Don't waste any more time. Li Hugo said.
Seeing Li Hugo leave, Li Zhong bowed in the direction where Li Hugo left, then turned around and said: "Dajin Fengyunlu will be removed first, it will not be updated in the past two months, clean up all the mud words, and wait for the young master's manuscript!"
"Yes!" said the people around him respectfully.
On the street, Bai Guwai looked at Li Hugo: "I really can't see it......"
"Can't see anything?"
"You are young, you can have such means, such a group of people, such a big industry, since you can control it at a young age!" Bai Guai said, at this moment, she was also impressed by Li Hugo.
Li Hugo smiled: "Isn't your heart in turmoil, and now you want to make a promise at night?"
"It's not serious, just crossed the two of you, and you have to get up, hum!" Bai Guwai said.
