Chapter 59: Journey to the West's Popularity

"Our marksmanship is unique."

"Although this marksmanship seems very simple, it has countless magical effects, such as stabbing, stabbing, attacking, entangling, circling, blocking, taking, pounce, point, and dial..."

As soon as Zhong Xiuwen mentioned martial arts, he couldn't stop talking.

It can be seen that the cultivation of literature should be based on practicing martial arts since childhood, otherwise you will not be able to remember these.

"Marksmanship is indeed very simple to get started with, but if you want to be advanced, you must have understanding."

When he said this, Zhong Xiuwen seemed quite proud.

"My father said that I have a great understanding of marksmanship. There are eighteen marksmanships, but I mastered them all in just one year."

When it comes to martial arts training, Xu Hanliang naturally knows that he cannot seek quick success.

After all, this is not like studying. As long as you remember it, you can write it down.

But in terms of understanding, Xu Hanliang is really not familiar with anyone.

Xu Hanliang has some exposure to modern fighting, but not that deep.

Many of the principles of marksmanship and the use of force are similar to modern fighting.

And Zhong Xiuwen's teaching is quite clear, and it can be said that he gave Xu Hanliang some tips.

Under such a situation, Xu Hanliang learned extremely quickly.

The two of them didn't study for too long. After two hours passed, the carriage also arrived outside the house.

Xu Hanliang didn't plan to go there alone this time, and Zhong Xiuwen also wanted to visit Hangzhou.

According to Zhong Xiuwen, the place Changshu has become more familiar, so I want to go out and have a look.

But Xu Hanliang also understood that Zhong Xiuwen was worried about his own safety, so he accompanied him.

In this case, Xu Hanliang did not shirk the blame. Although he was only a witness this time, he also understood that this witness was not that easy to be a witness.

The assassin was refreshed and left within a day. It was very likely that someone was watching him secretly, or that someone above him was protecting him.

The person above him was able to dispatch an assassin once, so he might not be able to dispatch an assassin a second time.

As for Xu Hanliang at home, there is no need to worry. He has already made an agreement with the county magistrate, and he also said that he will send more government officials to patrol the area.

Along the way, they did not encounter any accidents, and arrived in Hangzhou in the evening.

Xu Hanliang was also embarrassed to disturb Han Shizhong frequently, so he rented a room in the inn first.

After doing these things, he came to the West Lake.

The West Lake is not peaceful at night. After all, winter has turned to spring, and many buds have appeared on the ground.

In the West Lake, there are rows of painted boats.

Above those painting studios, prostitutes are also soliciting patrons.

Although it is not yet evening, the place is already extremely lively.

Shengshi Bookstore was nearby, and the two of them soon arrived at the door of the bookstore.

The last time Xu Hanliang came to the bookstore, the entire bookstore looked deserted. Not to mention who it was, there was not even a bird in sight.

But this time, as soon as he came to the bookstore, he could already hear the noise coming from the bookstore.

Outside the bookstore, there were also many people queuing up, seemingly waiting for something.

Relatively speaking, the huge Hangzhou Bookstore next to it seems more deserted.

Although there are some people, it seems that most of them go to Hangzhou Bookstore to inquire about the situation. After inquiring to no avail, they turn around and leave.

The scholar Xu Hanliang saw last time was standing at the door of the bookstore with a sad face.

Looking at the customers coming and going, I just regret that these customers are not coming to my own bookstore.

At this time, he was already thinking of the young man who had pushed the "Journey to the West" to him a few days ago.

Who would have known that he was actually the Jieyuan of this term, and that he had personally pushed such a huge source of wealth out of the door? Thinking of this, he felt even more regretful.

"Excuse me, what happened in this bookstore?"

Xu Hanliang looked at the situation in Shengshi Bookstore and felt panicked.

He didn't know the situation of Shengshi Bookstore before, and he was afraid that the bookstore had some debts, and all these people came here to collect debts.

If that's the case, then wouldn't all the money I gave you before have been wasted?

"Are you here to buy Journey to the West too?"

The person who was asked turned around and asked doubtfully.

"'Journey to the West'? You came here just to buy 'Journey to the West'?"

Xu Hanliang was slightly startled.

In fact, he had already guessed that "Journey to the West" would be quite popular, but with such popularity, he still had no way of predicting it.

"That's natural. This "Journey to the West" is the new work of the great genius Xu Hanliang. It is brilliant. Naturally, everyone wants to read this masterpiece."

The man nodded immediately and replied immediately.

Among the people in front of me, there were both men and women, and even a lot of children. Judging from their age, these children were only just literate.

Just when Xu Han was doubting his conscience, shopkeeper Hao came to the door surrounded by the bookstore clerks.

Looking at the crowded crowd, the smile on his face seems to be in sharp contrast with the sad look of the bookseller in Hangzhou Bookstore.

"Everyone, everyone, the five thousand copies of "Journey to the West" printed in the bookstore have now been sold out, and our bookstore is also stepping up printing. Please be patient and come back in two days."

After Shopkeeper Hao walked to the door, he bowed to everyone in front of him and said.

"Shop Manager Hao, we have been waiting here for an hour, and you are gone without saying a word. Didn't we wait in vain?"

"Yes, if you step up the engraving tonight, won't you be able to sell it by tomorrow? Why do you have to wait until the day after tomorrow?"

"My young master has also been waiting for a day, and he also wants to enjoy the happiness of Duke Jie Yuan. After two days, he probably won't be able to enjoy the happiness."



After hearing this, many people immediately became unhappy.

"Everyone, everyone, I'm really sorry. Let's speed up the printing and print out two thousand copies tomorrow before selling them."

Shopkeeper Hao had no choice but to speak again, and repeatedly raised his hands to everyone.

Among these people, in addition to those who come to buy alone, there are also many bookstore owners.

Everyone wants to make a lot of money from this "Journey to the West", so they are naturally anxious.

In the eyes of many people, the name Xu Hanliang is already a guarantee of sales, not to mention the story is still so exciting.

After hearing what Shopkeeper Hao said, the noisy crowd gradually dispersed.

Shopkeeper Hao wiped the cold sweat from his head and smiled helplessly.

From the time the bookstore opened until now, it seems that it has never been so prosperous.
