Datang romantic little landlord
Page 263
Fangzhu Sun suddenly wanted to laugh a little, those aristocratic sons actually wanted to bet with the Hu County man, didn't they make it clear that they were going to give money?
There are still five days before the time of the bet, and nearly half of the [-] books agreed in the bet have been sold today, so what is the need for this bet?
He forgot, but that day he also thought that the loser of this bet would be Li Wangyou.
Fangzhu Sun laughed for a long time, but immediately called out to the shop assistants, and regardless of his old body, he rode out of Chang'an City on horseback.
He is going to announce the good news to Li Wangyou, and by the way, notify the craftsmen in Huxian Bookstore to continue printing the Three Kingdoms.
According to today's trend, [-] copies of Three Kingdoms are not enough to sell.
Regardless of how Fangzhu Sun's heart blossomed with joy, Wang Ziqiao and others naturally got the news of Li Wangyou's big battle in Chang'an City.
My own trilogy and servants went to the bookstores in the eastern and western cities to inquire about the news, and when they came back to describe the rush-buying scene, the four of Wang Ziqiao and Cui Daogu couldn't help but thump in their hearts, secretly thinking that it was not good.
If Li Wangyou's book is in such a hot sales situation, if they don't keep it all, they will really lose that incredible bet.
The four people who got the news looked at each other. If they really lost 1000 taels of gold, each of them would have to take out more than 200 taels of gold.
Although a thousand taels of gold is just a small amount of money for the family members of the Taiyuan Wang family, but for the four of them, it is not a lot, and it even feels heartache.
Even if you are the son of a family, you can get a certain amount of money from your family every month.
They can get two to three hundred copper coins from their homes every month, which is enough for them to spend a lot of time drinking and drinking every day, and hang out in various painting buildings and brothels in Pingkangfang.
You know, the monthly salary of a first-rank boss in the court is only six thousand and eight hundred yuan!
This shows the luxury of the life of the wealthy family.
It's no wonder that Lao Du would write such an indignant poem "The dog meat of the Zhumen stinks, and the bones are frozen to death on the road".
And Wang Ziqiao and others don't have any savings, and usually spend all their copper coins every month.If they really lost the bet with Li Wangyou, they might not be able to afford the money.
"Everyone, we can't sit still and let that little bastard surnamed Li be proud and arrogant!" Inside the Pingkangfang painting building, Wang Ziqiao put his arms around a prostitute, and said viciously.
275 East City Fire
Wang Ziqiao and others were naturally unwilling to lose a thousand gold to Li Wangyou for nothing.
Originally thought that the bet made with Li Wangyou was purely because Li Wangyou was out of his mind and wanted to send money to them.
Especially in the past few days, the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in Sun Ji Bookstore was not selling well.Daily Bookstore sold less than ten copies of Three Kingdoms, which made Wang Ziqiao and the others laugh out loud, mocking Li Wangyou for being kicked in the head by a donkey.
But now that Li Wangyou made such a move, it was beyond the expectation of the four dudes, making them a little flustered.
"What do you think we should do? I asked the servants to inquire about it. Today, thousands of copies of that broken book have been sold." Cui Daogu asked.
Cui Hong poked his neck: "What can I do? Can you still force others not to go to the bookstore to buy books? If you want me to say, if you lose, you lose. Can he, Li Wangyou, still come to us to ask for a bill? I won't give it to him. !"
Lu Siyang said: "Fart! This is a bet, can you deny it? If he really takes the bet and goes to the government to ask for the bill, what will you do?"
"If he dares to come to the door, I will beat him out!"
"Then he went to Taiji Palace to find the saint?"
"This……"
In case of losing the bet, there is no need to consider reneging on the debt. This time the bet is on paper, which is different from the previous agreement between the two parties that was only verbal.
Black and white, the two parties signed and wrote down the gambling contract, and they would not pay it. Li Wangyou really dared to go to the Tai Chi Palace and ask Li Er to collect the debt for him.
Li Wangyou is now appointed as the man of the founding county, and in terms of status, he is the same as these dude elders.
How can the few of their legitimate sons who rely on family power pay off their gambling debts?
"Neither left nor right, so what do you think we should do? Are you really waiting to lose the bet and obediently offer your golden hands?" Cui Hong was also angry.
His words made Wang Ziqiao and the three of them speechless for a moment, not knowing what to do.
Wang Ziqiao suddenly drove out all the prostitute singers beside him, and said to the three of them in a low voice: "I have an idea, but I don't know if you dare to do it?"
"What's your idea, let's hear it."
"Come here with your ears, the law cannot be passed on to your six ears!"
The three of Cui Daogu hurried over, and after listening to Wang Ziqiao's words, the three of them were dumbfounded.
"Brother Ziqiao, it's extremely risky to do this, just in case..." Cui Daogu hesitated a little, more than 200 taels of gold is actually not much, it seems not worth taking the risk for this little gold.
Lu Siyang also shook his head: "That's right, losing more than 200 taels of gold at most, isn't it worth it?"
Cui Hong supported Wang Ziqiao's idea: "I think it's okay. If we really lose, it's not just a matter of a thousand taels of gold. What we lose is the face of our aristocratic family!"
What he said made Cui Daogu and Lu Siyang hesitate again.
Indeed, as Cui Hong said, losing a little gold is nothing, but losing the face of the family is not okay.
Wang Ziqiao persuaded again: "We will each send a capable member to do this matter. After finishing the work, we will give them a sum of money and send them back to Taiyuan, Boling and other places. How much trouble will it cause?"
Speaking of this, Cui Daogu and Lu Siyang silently looked at each other, nodded and agreed.
……
It was night, in the east city of Chang'an City, a sharp and piercing copper whistle sounded suddenly.
In the square market, a raging fire broke out!
The fire was so powerful that it lit up the dark night sky of Chang'an City, and the flames rose several feet high, and the momentum was terrifying.
Qin Xuan, the brigade commander of Wuhoupu in Dongshi City, led his subordinate Wuhou, squeezing the water bag desperately, trying to put out the fire.
However, not only was the fire not extinguished, but it tended to intensify.
"Marshal Lu, someone must have set the fire and used kerosene to start the fire, otherwise the fire would not have been doused with water bags!" Marquis Wu, who was struggling to put out the fire under his command, shouted to Qin Xuan.
In fact, Qin Xuan has already seen this point.
The fire came so suddenly, and the water could not be extinguished, there was no other explanation except that some people set it maliciously.
His face was already covered in black soot, and after being soaked in sweat, his face was covered with black marks.
However, Qin Xuan didn't care about these things now, so he could only continue to desperately urge his subordinate Wuhou to put out the fire, and at the same time asked Wuhou to push down the shops on both sides of the fire scene to create a isolation zone to prevent the fire from spreading.
"Damn it, it's really evil! Who owns the burning shop? What kind of business is it?"
"Back to Lu Shuai, this is the family bookstore, Sun Ji Bookstore."
Qin Xuan didn't pay much attention when he heard that it was a bookstore, but he also knew during the day that many scholars had poured into the East Market to buy books in the bookstore.
