Pear Blossom Lane

Tongfu Inn at Xinhua Bookstore

More than a dozen bookstores were released together, and book fans were greatly diverted, so although the entrance of Xinhua Bookstore was lively, it was always as if two streets were blocked.

Guanbu and Du Shanjian were too many people in the bookstore, so they were so worried about buying books.

In fact, if they want to read new books, they can get it by just going to Xinhua News Agency. No matter how they are all from Xinhua, this little benefit is still no problem.

………

In fact, it is not just official websites, but also those who are famous book fans recorded in Xinhua, such as Prince Lu, Prince Su, Yan Yi, Right Minister of Rites, Yang Huang, Deputy Commander of the Tiger Guard, Yu Lei, etc.

Even some of Ma Jin's colleagues from the Censorate who love reading novels will send someone to the bookstore if they are interested in buying books.

There is no special meaning. The merchants in the capital do this. This is the privilege of these powerful officials. Ma Jin and his colleagues from the Censorate will benefit from it.

This is not considered as Ma Jin cursing the powerful. In fact, except for the Eighth Prince and King Su, everyone else charges as usual, and there is an additional door-to-door delivery service.

Why didn’t the Eighth Prince and Yan Yi take money? Ma Jin said that his family still withdraws money but doesn’t have money, which is too irrelevant...

………

In addition to these people, Xinhua also has a top supreme client... Jing Kangdi.

This man doesn't need someone to deliver the goods to the door, but even if Xinhua wants to deliver them, he can't deliver them.

But this supreme customer is so arrogant that he always calls Ma Jin, the author and bookstore boss, to discuss the plot. He can read any deleted original manuscripts as long as he wants, which is very comfortable.

Not satisfied with the out of context, he called Ma Jin over, scolded him and sent him a blade?

Let’s learn about beheading outside the Meridian Gate...

………

Not to mention spoilers, Emperor Jing Kang still wanted to tamper with the plot, but Ma Jin was still rational and refused under pressure, otherwise Qin Hui would have died eight hundred times...

Fortunately, Emperor Jingkang was the emperor and did not like to act willfully. Although Ma Jin refused, he was a little sorry, but he would not force him, which also made Ma Jin relieved.

On one hand, there is money and reputation accumulated, and on the other hand, there is a wife and even the family and fate. If he really wants to choose, he will...of course he will choose the second one...

………

However, the novel is just a path to Emperor Jingkang. It is usually used for fun and entertainment. At most, sometimes it is a little unhappy with Ma Jin's abuse of the master and out of context, but in fact it is not taken seriously.

In most cases, Ma Jin came here just to chat and relieve boredom.

Who told Ma Jin that there are many stories in his belly...

Ma Jin was also happy to be close to his immediate boss and his future father-in-law, but in the eyes of outsiders, Ma Jin's loyalty was too strong.

Less than two months after Ma Jin returned from Yanzhou to Beijing, except for the time he returned on the first day to submit the order, Emperor Jingkang summoned Ma Jin alone no less than seven or eight times.

In fact, these are all superficial phenomena. Half of Ma Jin's seven or eight meetings were for Emperor Jingkang to treat his illness, and the others were summoned normally.

………

Others think that Ma Jin favors Zheng Jia and is very glorious, but in fact Ma Jin is not willing to do this job at all.

It is not easy to make people happy, let alone an old man with a deep mind...

It is not easy to chat with Emperor Jingkang, and it is very particular. Because Emperor Jingkang's identity is too overwhelming, it is hard to tell. You are too inappropriate like those dirty jokes and absurd and bizarre stories. You are known and you are locked off with a hat that confuses the holy listens. It is enough for Ma Jin to suffer.

Besides, Ma Jin is not only a minister of Emperor Jingkang, but also may be a father-in-law and son-in-law in the future. The son-in-law tells a bad joke to his father-in-law.

I feel that I'm not dying fast enough...

………

Therefore, Ma Jin could only choose folk customs, celebrity anecdotes, funny jokes and insensitive subjects to talk to Emperor Jing Kang, and Bo Jun for fun.

Occasionally, he learned to learn from Zou Ji and Yanzi and used metaphors to give advice. There was no way. He wanted to tell jokes with Emperor Jingkang every day and was no longer a lie. He still had a reputation in the officialdom.

Emperor Jingkang was not easy to fool. He received royal elite education since he was a child and was an emperor for nearly twenty years. Not to mention his knowledge of the Five Cars, he was comparable to a great scholar, but he was well-read and well-known. If Ma Jin had not come from later generations, he would not have been able to do this job well.

But that's it. Every time I see you, Ma Jin is tortured by Emperor Jingkang. Now when he hears the imperial edict passed on, Ma Jin smiles faintly without saying anything.

Others thought he was not surprised by his favor and disgrace, but in fact, Ma Jin had already cursed in his heart.

What are the old thiefs keep watching me? There are three thousand beauties in the harem, do you have time to comfort me? Tell me a big man to chat, you are crazy.

Well, it must be an old guy...

Tongfu Inn

Although they don’t buy books, it’s rare for the two of them to come out once, so they just gathered for a while and had some wine.

I asked a seat by the window, ordered a few plates of side dishes, two pots of wine, and the two sat down. Looking at the crowd outside the window, which had increased instead of decreasing compared to the past, the mood that had just recovered was unbalanced.

"From this attitude, as long as the writing is not bad, 30,000 will definitely be stable. As optimistic as Editor Xu and Mr. Xu, there should be no problem with the quality.

Maybe. This kid can sell 50,000 yuan in his first book, and he will be on top of our brothers in the future."

It’s not that Guan Bu is feeling unhappy. Compared to them, Liu Mian was treated so well. When the new book was released for the first time, Ma Jin personally stood on the stage. This is a very golden sign.

...

Guan Bu was a little depressed and poured himself a glass of wine. How old is Du Shan older? He was more open-minded about this matter, poured a glass of wine for his junior brother and advised him.

"Zi Wang, don't be childish. I just heard you say that Liu Mian was only fourteen years old and could write a novel that Mr. and others valued at the age of fourteen. He was very talented.

The gentleman loves talents and is expected to come to the door to accept disciples, and it is natural for the master to support the disciples. If you don’t accept it, who will make you not a disciple of the gentleman?”

Out of respect, Xinhua’s authors, and even most of the authors outside, call Ma Jin a gentleman. On the one hand, he is a master of his teacher, and on the other hand, he is respectful of his contribution to the industry.

...

Du Shanyu was very serious about comforting Guanbu, but he ignored all the previous paragraph he said, and only focused on the last sentence.

Guan Bu raised his head, looked at Du Shan with bright eyes, and said a word, almost choking Du Shan who was drinking.

"Senior brother, how about you tell me I'm going to be a teacher."

"Ahem...ahhhh..."

Du Shan swallowed the wine in a mess, which aroused the contempt of the guests at the table next to him. Just this little alcohol tolerance should not be embarrassing.

"What did you say just now?" Du Shan felt that he might have heard it wrongly.

………

"I want to be a teacher by sir."

Guan Bu looked serious and said seriously, obviously not like a joke.

"Since I wrote a book, I have received many guidance from Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr. Mr.

Although I am older than Liu Mian, I am just over twenty years old and I am a few years younger than my husband. I can tell the age of my age.

Moreover, I think my talent is not bad, and the sales volume is only for Mr. Tang Yin and his senior brother can fight me in the capital.

After several conditions added up, if I go to become a disciple, I will not refuse."

Guan Bu was full of confidence at first, but in the end he became hesitant and couldn't make up his mind.
