Chapter 31 Jiang Huang

The women stayed in the shop for a while and finally left one after another.

Lu Chensheng breathed a sigh of relief. After telling Chu Wu to take care of the situation in the store, Lu Chensheng turned around and went to Feng Yue Tea House.

This is the largest teahouse in Fufeng City, and countless people come here to drink tea and listen to books.

When Lu Chensheng came here, he naturally wanted to ask the storyteller for help.

Arriving at the teahouse, Lu Chensheng first ordered a cup of tea and listened to the storyteller telling stories.

What the other party said was some anecdotes that Lu Chensheng had never heard of, although he could guess the rest of the content just by listening to the beginning.

But this storyteller was also extremely talented, and Lu Chensheng was unconsciously attracted to it.

After a while, the storyteller took a half-time break, and Lu Chensheng asked the waiter to invite him over.

"Hello, young master, why do you call me here?"

The storyteller walked up to him, raised his hands and said.

"Please take a seat."

Lu Chensheng stretched out his hand slightly and asked after the other person sat down, "I don't know your name, sir?"

"Young Master, you're welcome, I'm an old king."

The storyteller was somewhat flattered and said that the scholars he had seen before had their nostrils turned upward, as if they were afraid that others would not know that they were scholars.

Lu Chensheng in front of him seemed very humble and gentle.

"There is a book here. I would like to give it to you, sir, so that you can tell it in your story later."

Lu Chensheng handed over a pamphlet and said with a smile.

As soon as Wang Zhong heard this, he flipped through the booklet with some curiosity. When he saw some poems on it and the content behind it, a light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

As a highly qualified storyteller, it only took him a moment to clearly see the weight of this book.

"Is this really the case for an old storyteller?"

Wang Zhongyi looked at Lu Chensheng excitedly. He knew that he could definitely become famous by giving him such a booklet.

By then the teahouse will be full, and there will be many people who come specifically to listen to my stories.

In this way, his income can also be greatly increased.

Except for some people who gave rewards to me and others who listened to me specifically, some of the tea money sold will also be given to me.

This was the time when I made an agreement with the shopkeeper here.

"There is one condition."

Lu Chensheng knocked on the table, "After you finish speaking, you need to explain that the source of these words is Taohuafang, which is a few dozen feet ahead of this street."

Lu Chensheng came here to advertise with the other party. If he didn't advertise, he might not be able to sell the book he wrote so quickly.

Wang Zhongyi immediately nodded in agreement.

He didn't hesitate at all about this. The booklet in his hand was so attractive.

"That's it, it's settled. If you do well, there will be another storybook delivered to you."

After Lu Chensheng finished speaking, he turned and left.

When Lu Chensheng returned to the store, a lot of peach blossom paper had been purchased.

The little face on the fifth day of the new year has turned into a flower with a smile.

"Sir, this peach blossom paper is selling out really fast. If we don't produce it soon, I'm afraid we won't be able to keep up."

The peach blossom paper that had been stored for several days has now been half empty.

Lu Chensheng didn't expect that the peach blossom paper would be sold so quickly.

What Lu Chensheng didn't expect was that a Confucian master from the college came in the afternoon and directly bought the peach blossom paper at the bottom.

Lu Chensheng smiled bitterly, wrote a note saying it was out of stock and posted it on the door, and the two of them closed the door early.

....

Imperial Capital.

Although Huang Huang is now in middle age, his health is getting worse day by day due to working day and night on state affairs.

I had just finished the morning session. After drinking some tonic to replenish my health, I went to the Imperial Study Room to review and approve the memorial.

"Report, Jiangnan Governor Lin Gu wants to see you."

"Lin Gu? Didn't he go to Fufeng to investigate the rebellion? Why did he come back so soon?"

When Emperor Jiang heard this, there was something strange on his somewhat old face.

According to the distance, the other party is just coming and going, right?

At that time, the rebellion shocked the imperial court. Countless ministers made impassioned speeches and wished they could immediately arrest and execute the mastermind behind it.

"Yes, but the governor seems to have something urgent to report at the moment."

The leading eunuch responded softly and said.

Emperor Jiang didn't say much after hearing this, waved his hand and said, "Let him come in."

The eunuch bowed and retreated after hearing this.

Soon, Lin Gu strode into the imperial study, "My lord, Lin Gu pays homage to the emperor!"

"My dear, without any courtesy, tell me what's important. I'm busy with official matters at the moment."

Jiang Huang raised his head and glanced at Lin Gu below, waved his hand and said.

Lin Gu did not dare to neglect after hearing this, and quickly handed over a rather small-looking object in his hand.

"I visited Fufeng City and occasionally received an auspicious gift to present to my emperor!"

Auspicious?

If this were other ministers, or ministers from remote areas, Emperor Jiang would really not take it to heart.

There are some auspicious objects once or twice a month, and he is used to it.

It's just that some ministers want rewards, or they want to be promoted to nobility, but they can't say it clearly, so they just come out like this.

But now it was Lin Gu who was talking about, so that was different.

Lin Gu was a great Confucian before and didn't even bother to play with this trick.

Now the auspiciousness he mentioned is a bit exciting.

"Present it."

When the eunuch serving Emperor Jiang heard this, he immediately moved to Lin Gu's side, took the object from the other person's hand, inspected it carefully, and presented it to Emperor Jiang after making sure there was no danger.

"Your Majesty, this thing is called a waterwheel. It can bring water from low places to high places. With such a magical thing, if it is promoted on a large scale, people will not have to worry about water sources for their crops. This year will definitely be a bumper harvest!

"

Lin Gu said very excitedly at this moment.

Jiang Huang looked at the object in his hand, and with a slight swing he understood the principle. After listening to the meaning of Lin Gu's words, his body suddenly shook, and a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.

"This is truly auspicious!"

Jiang Huang couldn't help but stand up, holding a large amount of water in his hand and laughing.

"Okay, okay! With this auspiciousness, the people will definitely have a good harvest this year!"

Farming is a major event for a country, and now with the help of this magical creature, Jiang's harvest this year will definitely increase by several percent.

In this way, the national treasury can be filled up.

At that time, he could do more things. In the past few years, due to problems with his treasury, he had been constrained in doing things, which really annoyed him.

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but cheer over and over again.

The personal eunuch on the side saw the expression of ecstasy on Emperor Jiang's face, and now he couldn't help but smile on his bark-like face.
