Song Mu's residence, today Song Mu is looking at the person in front of him with a sad face.
"Brother Song, I have been in contact with the bookkeepers of various bookstores in the past few days. This book seems to have been brought by a foreign trader, and it has already been sold out."
"Major bookstores no longer sell them, but it is profitable. Some workshops secretly print them and sell them to those salesmen, but there is nothing we can do."
The person sitting in front of Song Mu and talking was none other than Xu Yuncai, but today he came and was extremely apologetic.
Now it is May, and the demonic things that suddenly broke out in all directions have been gradually calmed down by Li Ao's thunderous power and differentiation method, and the Wen Dynasty has returned to a rare calm.
However, there are still undercurrents surging underneath. There is no chaos in the four parties on the surface, but they are also fighting to the death in the dark.
Song Mu has now published several articles in Tianwenjian. Each article praises a hero, from a soldier at the beginning to a commoner later. Although the content of each article is different, the theme is also different.
Slightly expanded.
But at the end of each article, Song Mu would touch on the demonic chaos, with a slight intention of fanning the flames, but it was also quite effective.
In the past, we used to discuss articles and poems, but now students are also willing to discuss such things and talk about what a hero is.
But now, Song Mu had to face a very embarrassing situation.
That is, in Chang'an, because of a "Biography of Song Mu", I have now caused myself a lot of trouble.
Originally, this was just a simple villain's book. Song Mu also thought that it would gradually fade away as time went by, but he did not expect that this "Song Mu Biography" would have commentary at some point.
The story of Song Mu's struggle and his status as the number one scholar are very in line with what ordinary people think.
Every time I go back and forth, there are always people gathering in teahouses, bookstores, street stalls, and under the bridges, listening to people telling stories about Song Mu, and cheering loudly.
This caused a strange scene in Chang'an. Every time Song Mu went out, the child would follow him with bright eyes.
People along the way could recognize Song Mu, and they would always give him a hand and greet him with greetings.
There were also a group of scholars who regarded Song Mu as a wise teacher for the imperial examinations. The county schools, government schools, academies, and even the Imperial College in Chang'an all invited Song Mu to give lectures.
Not only that, but even more so, those opportunistic people had to follow Song Mu every day, just to ask Song Mu to write calligraphy and chatter endlessly.
Song Mu was one of those people who didn't want to get angry with others. He was often troubled and had to ask his friends for help. By this month, he could only use his body skills every day to avoid entanglements.
Everyone said that the admiration and love from all the people made people feel like they were bathed in the spring breeze of the four seasons, but Song Mu couldn't agree with him now.
Song Mu could not solve this situation, so he had to ask for help from all directions. Xu Yuncai came to visit today, and Song Mu also talked about his current troubles.
"Brother Song, this matter seems a bit strange now. If the scholars are crazy, they admire Brother Song's literary talent. But it is indeed a bit intriguing that a group of common people are like this."
Xu Yuncai said this to Song Mu immediately. Song Mu also nodded slightly and let out a long sigh.
"There's nothing I can do about this matter. Brother Xu came here today because he wanted to ask him to help me solve my problems."
Xu Yuncai immediately became energetic after hearing these words. At this moment, he looked at Song Mu with some confusion, and Song Mu said helplessly.
"I received a post yesterday from the Chang'an Chamber of Commerce about the Dragon Boat Festival."
"I have planned to go, but I want to ask Brother Xu to help me do something from it."
Xu Yuncai immediately raised his hands towards Song Mu and said in a deep voice.
"Brother Song, it doesn't matter. If Xu can succeed, he will definitely work hard."
Song Mu smiled and poured tea for Xu Yuncai, and then asked Xu Yuncai.
"Brother Xu, I wonder how much money I have for polishing my poetry collection now?"
Hearing this, Xu Yun was stunned for a moment, but then he said it directly.
"In the past two months, the sales in Chang'an have been very good, and because it is an official letter, the profit has been very high. By now, there will be four thousand taels of silver."
Song Mu also nodded when he heard this.
The collection of poems I published has also gained a lot of popularity, and the profit from the sales is not much different from what I calculated.
"I wonder what Brother Song is thinking?"
Xu Yuncai asked, and Song Mu said in a deep voice.
"Song wants to ask Brother Xu to donate all the 4,000 taels of silver. Half of it will be donated to the general care hospital in the city. The other 1,000 taels will be donated to the Ministry of War. The rest, I hope Brother Xu will help me donate it to Jiangnan."
West Dao Jizhou Prefecture.”
Xu Yun just heard Song Mu's arrangement and nodded slightly. Of course, he was also surprised that Song Mu had such courage and donated thousands of taels of silver so lightly.
However, Xu Yuncai did not show it, and just smiled and said to Song Mu again.
"Of course this matter is out of the question, but it will take a while."
Song Muze said quickly.
"The veterans and those donating to Jiangnan West Road can wait a little longer, but those donating to Chang'an Pu Hospital need Brother Xu's help."
Xu Yuncai was a little puzzled at the moment, but soon he had an idea and spoke to Song Mu.
"Brother Song, do you want to donate these two thousand taels of silver at the Dragon Boat Festival?"
Song Mu nodded and said with a smile this time.
"That's right, Mr. Song thought about it and used the two thousand taels as the winnings for the dragon boat that day. It would be the icing on the cake for my dragon boat in Jiangnan West Road, and it would not be in vain for me to be a student of Jiangnan West Road."
Sure enough, after hearing what Song Mu said, Xu Yuncai immediately understood and nodded with a smile.
"Then Xu understands, this matter must be settled for Brother Song."
Song Mu nodded, and at this moment he also raised his hand towards Xu Yuncai.
After saying this, Xu Yuncai was about to leave immediately, but when he heard Song Mu leaving through the small door, he helplessly said to Song Mu this time.
"Brother Song is quite helpless living here. Why don't you change your residence and go to my place? Xu can find a quiet yard for Brother Song and Mr. Song along the way."
When Song Mu heard this proposal, he was immediately moved in his heart. He thought it was very good, so he nodded and asked Xu Yuncai to help.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When Song Mu sent Xu Yuncai away, the expression on his face was a little depressed, and the look of sadness was a little deeper.
To outsiders, Song Mu acted calm and relaxed, but regarding the current situation, Song Mu knew how serious it was.
The current situation in Chang'an is not only that everyone doesn't know what to do, but also that he feels that something is wrong. He is sought after by all the people. If it is because of his articles and merits, it is reasonable.
Because of his so-called chivalry and righteousness and his poor background, he was highly respected by the people. From this point of view, it seemed that he was flattering himself.
And now in this world, the one person who least wants to make life easy for Song Mu is that monster.
So now, regardless of whether this thing was done by demons or not, Song Mu must do something about it.
He picked it up high and dropped it hard. If he was not careful, his reputation would be ruined and he would be covered in infamy.
"Master, is this really a way to prepare for a rainy day?"
Song Mu asked towards the courtyard at this moment. A window in the courtyard next to him opened. Tao Fengming looked at Song Mu at this moment, with a somewhat indifferent expression on his face.
"It's hard to say. For the current plan, we can only proceed step by step."
"The righteous deeds you have done will always be less criticized in the future. If all kinds of difficulties come your way, these things will certainly prove your innocence."
Tao Fengming said this, still frowning slightly.
"But if there is really a violent storm coming, Jing Zhao, you just stand upright in it, and those who are clean will be clean themselves, and there will be no hindrance after that."
Song Mu nodded. For such matters, we can only take one step at a time.
As he said that, Uncle Dong's scolding came from outside the courtyard, and then there was a rush of footsteps leaving. Song Mu looked outside and said to Tao Fengming.
"Teacher, it seems we have to move to another place."
