“Print and sell novels?”

Upon hearing this, many waiters and people in the hall looked disdainful.

"Chief Zhao, please save your time, or let our Jing Gutang go."

A middle-aged manager said: "Who doesn't know that your novel library is in a state of limbo right now? It's been a long time since you had any good works, and even if you did, no one would pay attention to it."

"To be honest, you, the Novel Pavilion, don't have face, but our Jinggu Hall still needs shame."

"Ha ha."

Everyone around them laughed.

Zhao Wenbin's expression remained unchanged.

"How much money did our novel pavilion make from helping Jinggutang in the past? Are we so mean?"

"That was before, now we have new partners."

The steward said: "You must know this person, he is Yu Xing."

"Yu Xing?"

Zhao Wenbin's face immediately turned ugly.

Of course he knew this person, even quite familiar with him.

Yu Xing was also a member of the Novels Pavilion before, and had written several story books, but later he was listed on the list, Deng Mingzhi, the son of Deng Qiu, the left minister of the Ministry of War.

He began to write some articles that sought glory and deviated from his original intention, and then retired from the novel.

He often writes eye-catching and sensational works, distorts facts, and stirs up trouble. Most of them mainly criticize Guan Ning.

When Xue Jianzhong's case was heated up some time ago, he even wrote a rebuttal article. However, the public opinion was so overwhelming that it did not cause much response, but was directly drowned...

"You actually cooperate with people of such low moral character?"

Zhao Wenbin was surprised.

"We only look at whether the person is valuable and whether anyone is willing to read what he writes."

The steward said expressionlessly.

Zhao Wenbin understood.

As long as it attracts people's attention, they don't pay much attention to the content, it's very realistic.

But no matter how bad Yu Xing is in his writing, how can he compare to Guan Shizi's reputation?

"I have only one request. If you ban this Yu Xing and refuse to accept his articles in the future, I will hand over this novel to you for sale."

He kept Guan Ning's instructions in mind and requested that they be sold and disseminated as soon as possible.

Jinggutang is the largest bookstore and has great influence. It is definitely unavoidable, but Yu Xing can be kicked out by the way.

This person wrote articles many times criticizing Prince Guan for his grandstanding.

Prince Guan definitely doesn't care, but I can't help but care...

Zhao Wenbin thought.

"Ha ha!"

Just then, there was a burst of laughter.

Zhao Wenbin turned around and saw two people walking out of the inner hall. The young man among them was thin and his face was also slightly thin, giving him a cunning look.

The other middle-aged man was wearing well-dressed clothes and was fat.

"Yu Xing!"

Zhao Wenbin's eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't expect him to be here.

"I heard what you just said. It's really ridiculous. You even threatened Jinggutang to ban me. Are you overestimating your capabilities?"

Yu Xing laughed.

"If a novelist is not popular, his decline is inevitable, and you are even more useless. No one will read what you wrote."

"snort."

Zhao Wenbin snorted coldly.

"It is people like you who tarnish the reputation of novelists. You write untrue things all day long, slander others to gain attention and sensationalize others. You are the most hateful."

"Chief Zhao, let's write something good first."

Shopkeeper He shook his head and said, "We also want to do business."

"Are you really not going to ban this person? He writes things that slander Prince Guan all day long, just for the sake of being black and black, and he still wants to keep it, but instead he is treated as a guest of honor?"

"So what? Someone will read what I write!"

Yu Xing doesn't care about this.

Guan Shizi was a prominent figure in the capital, and his every move attracted much attention. He was commissioned to smear him, but he also received a lot of attention.

No matter whether he is good or bad, he can still make money.

"Sorry, can't."

Shopkeeper He said directly.

"Look, you'd better go back to avoid embarrassment."

Yu Xing was even more proud.

But Zhao Wenbin said calmly: "He just wrote something to smear Guan Shizi, and some people paid attention to it, but here I have a novel written by Guan Shizi himself. Is this weight enough?"

"What did you say?"

Shopkeeper He was suddenly startled.

As the shopkeeper of Jinggutang, he is very aware of the extent of Guan Ning's attention among the public. Just having a small influence on it can arouse a lot of discussion.

If it was really written by him, the meaning would be completely different.

Especially recently, his poems on the theme of jade have spread throughout Beijing. They are preparing to make a poetry collection and are planning to contact Guan Ning.

"Guaranteed replacement if fake!"

Zhao Wenbin said proudly: "Not long ago, Guan Shizi announced that he would join our novel library, and this novel is his pioneering work."

"Can I have a look at the manuscript?"

Shopkeeper He asked.

Yu Xing's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that Zhao Wenbin was really confident.

Then he sneered and said: "Even if it is written by Guan Shizi, it must be of a certain standard. If it is written nonsense, who will buy it?"

What he said is correct.

This is exactly why shopkeeper He wants to read the manuscript.

It's one thing to have a good reputation, but you also need to have work that you can produce.

Zhao Wenbin handed over the opening chapters without refuting, because it was simply unnecessary.

"this?"

Shopkeeper He was attracted to it after a cursory look.

There are elements of fantasy and weirdness, but also combined with love.

The love story between a thousand-year-old succubus and an apothecary shop apprentice has an unconventional meaning in itself.

He knows that this is what those rich and aristocratic ladies like the most!

But there are no excellent works on the market, and those novelists don't have the courage and ideas to write this kind of thing.

He is sure!

This must be what Guan Shizi did.

Only he can ignore the world.

excellent work!

It will definitely sell well!

Shopkeeper He is very sure!

"How is it? Isn't it terrible?"

Yu Xing said calmly: "Then Prince Guan was not good at literature or martial arts. I don't know where the poems he wrote came from, let alone the novels?"

"It must be like a running account, basically..."

"Wen Bin, I agree to your conditions."

Shopkeeper He said directly: "From now on, our Jinggutang will completely terminate our cooperation with Yu Xing and will no longer accept any manuscripts from him. In addition, I will also say hello to other bookstores with which I have a good relationship."

Just kidding, this is a novel written by Guan Shizi, how could they use a person who slanders Guan Shizi everywhere.
