You must know that fifty taels of silver can buy ten acres of fertile land now, and even Luo Xin thinks that the person who bought his book is a loser.
"Really?" Zhou Yu asked incredulously.
"Of course it's true!" The scholar was a little annoyed when he heard this.
Zhou Yu and Luo Xin looked at each other, and they didn't even have the intention of eating at the moment, so the two of them hurriedly finished eating, and then left the restaurant and walked towards the Zhuangyuan Bookstore. Walking on the road, Zhou Yu still seemed to be in a dream.
"Brother Xin, your book was really bought?"
"It should be true!" Luo Xin nodded and said, "Don't you see that the people in Jinyang Mansion are arguing about this book now?" ”
"You...... It's going to be rich! Zhou Yu stared at Luo Xin with wide eyes.
"Calm down!" Luo Xin had slowed down at this time, took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions and said, "It is estimated that the boss of Zhuangyuan Bookstore will talk to us about cooperation, we have to be calm." ”
"Hoo ......"
Zhou Yu also let out a long breath to calm himself down, but then he was not calm again. Because he thought that Luo Xin had told him that this "Biography of Shushan" had five million words.
"Brother Xin, you sold fifty taels for these 50,000 words, wouldn't these five million words sell for 5,000 taels?"
Luo Xin shook his head and said, "I'm afraid no one will be so loser." ”
"What about Champion Bookstore?"
Luo Xin thought for a moment and said, "Even if they agree to this price, I'm afraid they won't take out five thousand taels at once, maybe they will buy one volume, right?" Let's talk to them then. ”
The two of them walked while talking, and their emotions gradually calmed down. At this moment, I saw a person walking quickly to the two of them from the side and whispered:
"Two sons!"
Luo Xin was a martial artist, and when he felt someone approaching them quickly, he was ready to fight back, and his eyes were also over. I recognized that the person who was walking briskly was the guy in the Champion Bookstore. Hearing the fellow speak, he stopped and looked at him.
"Our shopkeeper asked the villain to wait for the two sons here, there are too many people at the front door of the bookstore, and we also ask the two sons to enter through the back door with the villain."
Luo Xin and Zhou Yu couldn't help but look towards the Zhuangyuan Bookstore not far away, and saw that there were many scholars in front of the door, and there were scholars walking there from time to time. I understood that the shopkeeper of Zhuangyuan Bookstore considered that he didn't want to expose his identity. That's why this guy is waiting for him here, and he can't help but have some good feelings for the shopkeeper. He nodded to the fellow, who immediately turned around and led the two of them towards the back door.
Entering the Zhuangyuan Bookstore from the back door, I saw a middle-aged scribe standing in the courtyard, but the shopkeeper Song had been looking at the back door, and when he saw the back door open, he walked out quickly and greeted Luo Xin and Zhou Yu.
"In Xia Song Tai, ask the two sons to respect their names."
"Zhou Yu!"
"Luo Xin!"
Shopkeeper Song's expression was stunned. He was in Jinyang Mansion, how could he not know the names of these two people. Not to mention that Luo Xin is famous in the water of the cultural struggle, even Zhou Yu is not a nameless person, not to mention that Zhou Yu is still the leader of the water of the cultural struggle?
If it was really these two people, Shopkeeper Song would not dare to slack off. To say that this shopkeeper Song is also a scholar, and he also has a reputation for showing talent, but he finally chose to run the family industry and did not take a career in office. After warmly inviting Luo Xin and Zhou Yu to the house. He poured the tea ceremony with his own hands:
"Brother Zhou Xian and Brother Luo Xian are from Yanglin County?"
Zhou Yu and Luo Xin nodded slightly, and the shopkeeper Song said with joy on his face: "In this way, Brother Zhou Xian is Brother Haode." And Brother Luo Xian is a Yanglin prodigy? ”
Zhou Yu nodded in acknowledgement, but Luo Xin didn't dare to say anything, he didn't like the word prodigy. The three of them chatted for a few words, and the shopkeeper Song said:
"This book is the ...... of Haode Xian" Although Luo Xin took out the book that day, he still didn't believe that Luo Xin wrote it.
Zhou Yu pointed at Luo Xin and said, "Shopkeeper Song is joking, it was the book that Brother Xin took out that day." ”
This time, Song Tai really paid attention to Luo Xin in his heart. Although I had heard about Luo Xin before, I always felt that it was a bit exaggerated. Now that I learned in person that this "Legend of Shushan" was written by Luo Xin, I was shocked and a little worried. Because he has read the first volume of "The Legend of Shushan", he knows that this volume is estimated to be a beginning. I don't know how many copies there are later. Maybe Luo Xin had a flash of inspiration for a while, and only wrote such a beginning, can he control such a huge story later? Will he be able to write it?
If he can't write it, half of it will be printed and distributed by his champion bookstore, and if there is no follow-up, his reputation will be stinky.
And......
Just the first volume can see that there are so many scholars obsessed, if half of the circulation is gone, then it must not anger these scholars?
Maybe they'll smash their bookstores all over the world!
got up and took the fifty taels of silver first, put it in front of Luo Xin, and said, "Master Luo, this is the silver that was sold in that volume of "The Legend of Shushan", please put it away." ”
Luo Xin nodded, put the silver away, and put it in the blanket. At this time, Song Tai took out another fifty taels of silver and put it in front of Luo Xin and said:
"Master Luo, these fifty taels of silver are the manuscript of "The Biography of Shushan" that Zhuangyuan Bookstore bought from you."
"What does Shopkeeper Song mean?" Luo Xinzhong naturally understood what Song Tai meant, but he still pretended not to understand and asked.
Shopkeeper Song smiled and said: "Master Luo, I want to buy this volume of "The Biography of Shushan", and then in order to let more people read this book, print and distribute this book throughout the country, Luo Gongzi has no opinion, right?" ”
"Naturally, there is no opinion!" Luo Xin said lightly: "Wouldn't it be a waste to spend fifty taels of silver to buy a book and put it at home?" ”
"Luo Gongzi is high-minded, hehe......"
Song Tai laughed, and at the same time paid more attention to Luo Xin in his heart. Because Luo Xin's words show that he has long seen through his Song Tai's plan, this is not only a matter of good reading, but also a skilled human sophistication in it. At the moment, he no longer regarded Luo Xin as a teenager, and said seriously:
"Master Luo, the story of "The Legend of Shushan" is very huge, I really admire you for being able to write such a whimsical and unique book."
"This is just the little brother's cranky thoughts, and he deserves Brother Song's appreciation." Luo Xin said humbly.
Seeing Luo Xin, he received a hundred taels of silver for a while, but there was no surprise on his face, and when he was appreciated by himself, he was not proud, and he was still reserved and indifferent, which made Song Tai can't help but pay a little more attention to Luo Xin in his heart.
