Chapter 19 019. Meeting Xiao Huaiyu by Occasion
Chapter 19 019. Encounter with Xiao Huaiyu
In a wing room on the second floor of Yueming Tea House, the window opened towards the atrium. Two people were leaning against the window, one with a picturesque face and the other with a lazy expression.
"The emperor likes the story of the fox fairy?" His Highness Xiao Qijun accompanied Xiao Huaiyu to listen to the story all morning, but he didn't hear anything interesting.
Xiao Huaiyu asked, "Don't you think this story is very interesting? Anyone who can make up such fantastic ideas must be very talented."
Xiao Qijun supported his chin with his hand and looked at the storyteller in the middle of the downstairs, "This story of the fox fairy is indeed much more interesting than the previous one. When did Yu Nan come up with such a good story, he won't be possessed by the fox fairy.
"
As he spoke, Xiao Qijun yawned.
"But Uncle Emperor, no matter how interesting this story is, there is no need to bring me here so early in the morning. I have been listening to it all morning."
He reached for the tea cup and found that the tea in the cup had already become cold.
A few days ago, Yu Nan only told part of the story one day. After telling the finale yesterday, he started telling the story in full today. If he wanted to listen to the whole story in one breath, he would have to stay in the teahouse all morning.
Xiao Qijun looked at Changtian, "When did your uncle like to listen to books?"
Originally, he made a living by telling stories, and he could only tell good stories, but could not even make up stories. No one had heard of books, which meant no customers, and no customers meant no income. If it weren't for the help of noble people, he really didn't know what he would do in the future.
.
Xiao Huaiyu stared at Xiao Qijun without blinking, and said in a very natural tone, "Because you didn't listen carefully to the book."
Now Yu Nan's most important task is to tell a good story. Only when he tells a good story can she make money.
She gave the names of several bookstores.
Changtian went away for a long time before returning. He was sweating on his forehead and panting. He placed a pile of books in his arms on the table, "Your Majesty, His Highness, your subordinates are back..."
He was also dragged out by the prince early this morning and said he wanted to come and listen to books. He was also surprised at that time because the prince had never listened to books before.
Yun Guinuan touched her veil, "It's not important. What's important is that you remember our agreement. I want to cooperate with you for a long time in the future. When the time is right, I will tell you my identity."
Xiao Qijun was thinking about Xiao Huaiyu's meal, and suddenly felt that "Fox Fairy" was not so boring. He picked up a copy and flipped through it twice, "Donghang Bookstore is really good at making money. One story can produce three books. This story is so interesting."
nice?"
Xiao Huaiyu is not much older than Xiao Qijun. Although the two are different in generation, their daily relationship is more like that of brothers.
After explaining his next plan, Yun Guinuan returned to the lobby of the teahouse and still found a corner to hide and listen to Yu Nan's story. Yu Nan had told the story of the fox fairy many times. He became more familiar and emotional, and more and more people came to listen to the book.
The more you do, the more famous you become.
Finally, he comforted Yu Nan, "Don't be mentally burdened. I am a business person who makes money, and I will not let myself lose money."
This nobleman never said where she lived in her house. Every time she showed up, she was covered with a veil. Not to mention her identity, even her appearance was unclear. In the future, she would pass by the nobleman when walking on the street.
, he couldn’t even recognize it.
After hearing this, Xiao Qijun immediately searched in his mind which restaurant in Beijing had the best food. After locking in the most expensive restaurant, he nodded in agreement, "Deal!"
Judging from the reactions of several bookstore shopkeepers, Yun Guinuan's reputation is indeed not very good in the capital. If her real name is not required to sign a contract, she will not expose her identity.
Changtian shook his head, "My subordinates don't know either."
There are three books in one set, and Chang Tian grabbed the last two sets.
After Yun Guinuan negotiated business with several bookstores, she took advantage of the crowd to sneak into Yueming Tea House. During the intermission, she found Yu Nan and handed him the new manuscript.
He picked up the spine of one of the books with two fingers and shook it, "That's it? How much money does it cost?"
She didn't want her name and identity to affect him.
Xiao Qijun was shocked, "These few thin books can sell so well!"
Changtian nodded and hurried away, giving Xiao Qijun a look that said, "I hope you will be blessed."
Yu Nan held on to the manuscript tightly, "I don't know where the lady's house is. I will visit you someday to say thank you."
"You paid for the tea and reward money for today's reading." Xiao Huaiyu said.
Yun Guinuan breathed a sigh of relief. She thought that Yu Nan didn't want to talk about her manuscript. "You're welcome. I don't ask for anything in return, but the requirements are really not high. You only need to tell the guests which bookstores can buy books on the day of the ending.
That’s it, this has already helped me a lot.”
Yu Nan has been out to make a living for so many years, and he understands that the more capable a person is, the lower his profile is. He nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, Miss. I will be a good storyteller and live up to Miss's love."
Xiao Qijun looked around and whispered to Changtian, "Do you think the person possessed by the fox fairy is actually the emperor's uncle?"
Xiao Qijun's face showed disdain, "You don't want to give me even a tael of silver."
Xiao Qijun met Xiao Huaiyu's half-smiling eyes and swallowed, "Uncle Emperor, what do you want to do?"
Xiao Qijun and Changtian looked at Xiao Huaiyu in surprise at the same time, how did you know!
Yu Nan held a thick stack of manuscripts, but frowned, "Miss is my noble lady. I never expected to be favored by Miss again. I can't bear the favor if I receive it in vain. I can't repay it."
Xiao Qijun quickly covered his money bag, "Why! I came with you, uncle!"
Yun Guinuan nodded, "In the past few days, you will tell the story of the Fox Fairy first. The new manuscript I gave you is called "The Legend of the Moon God". You go back and think about it carefully. When you have figured it out clearly, you will start telling it."
Xiao Qijun was convinced. How carefully could the emperor's uncle listen to the book before it was finished without touching it? He couldn't do it. He dozed off as soon as he read the book.
"One tael of silver per book."
Xiao Qijun choked, what kind of reason is this!
"I'll treat you to dinner another day." Xiao Huaiyu said again.
Xiao Huaiyu glanced at him and said calmly, "There are four books in the set, and there is one book with an ending that has not yet been released."
Just the reward money for this book is enough for him to spend for a year.
Come and listen to the story of the fox fairy.
Changtian answered, "Third Highness, don't underestimate these books. I struggled to get these last few books. If I go later, they will be gone!"
"Uh-huh." Xiao Huaiyu coughed heavily and said to Changtian, "Your Highness the Third Highness's tea has gone cold. Go and ask someone to refill it. Donghang Bookstore on the next street is selling the book "Fox Fairy". Go and buy it.
Bring back a few copies.”
"Because you didn't listen carefully to the book." Xiao Huaiyu said confidently.
"Take these books back and study them carefully." Xiao Huaiyu gave Xiao Qijun a set of books. "You will gain something after studying them. I will check them next time."
After hearing the finale, Yun Guinuan quietly walked out of the teahouse.
After crossing the threshold, she found that Prince Rui was also there, as if he had just come out of the teahouse.
Prince Rui also comes to listen to books?
Xiao Huaiyu: The person who wrote this story is very smart and intelligent.
Yun Guinuan: I seem to hear someone praising me?
Xiao Huaiyu: Be more confident and remove “like”
