I'm writing novels in Liaozhai

It is said to slay demons and subdue demons. Others use swords, spells, and weapons to subdue demons, but this fairy master is different, with a pen and a mouth.

Long eyes!

In the future, when I go to other places, I will have another bragging capital.

"thump!"

Finally, the completely deformed lobster fell into the water and disappeared.

Gu Ming hastily clicked on the task system, it was okay, and it could be submitted, which means that the lobster monster is really dead.

Mission accomplished

Earn 40 points

"thump!"

Gu Ming's mind was relaxed, and he fell into the water, his legs cramped in a hurry

Shame!

Just now he was regarded as a fairy teacher.

Fortunately, Gu Ming made a fierce operation.

Pretending to dive into the water, taking advantage of this opportunity to breathe a sigh of relief, and then forcefully resurfaced.

"Okay, I've already checked, and the monster is completely dead."

While talking, he stepped on the waves and walked to the shore.

In fact, at this time, Gu Ming was almost at the end of his strength, but no matter what he had to maintain his image of a master.

"Great, thank you Master Immortal!"

"If it weren't for the immortal master, the people of our Yuantong Town would have suffered."

"Lucky luck"

All the people came forward to express their thanks.

Some even knelt on the ground and kowtowed non-stop, with pious faces and muttering words in their mouths.

Nie Xiaoqian and Yu'er rushed over with expressions of relief and excitement.

This situation suddenly revived Gu Ming's spirit, and he quickly walked towards the second daughter with a sunny smile.

Chapter 73 Everyone line up, one by one...

Star study.

Early in the morning, as soon as He Yongliang opened the shop door, dozens of people rushed in.

This also only happened on opening day.

"Huh? Mr. Gu hasn't come yet?"

"Yes, we want to see Young Master Gu"

These people didn't read books or paintings after entering the store, but clamored to see Gu Ming.

As a result, He Yongliang was even more suspicious, and asked guiltily: "Everyone, why are you looking for Mr. Gu?"

A middle-aged woman couldn't help but said: "Hey, you commentator, you don't know such a big thing?"

"Look at you, you are still friends with Mr. Gu, and you don't even know it."

"fail!"

"Yeah, we've all heard that"

While everyone was clamoring, people came in one after another outside, making the store more and more crowded.

Just as He Yongliang was sweating coldly, Dong Sheng ran back with a bag of oil cakes.

Seeing that the shop was full of people, he didn't think it was strange, but said loudly to He Yongliang: "Xing did a big thing yesterday, he killed a demon in Yuantong Town"

It was so!

He Yongliang let out a long sigh of relief.

He wouldn't make a fuss about Gu Ming's extermination of the demon, after all, it wasn't the first time.

But these people like to join in the fun.

The last time Gu Ming eliminated the cat demon, due to various reasons, he did not publicize it.

But this time is different.

Many people at the scene witnessed Gu Ming's extermination of demons with their own eyes, and then spread it by word of mouth, adding layers of information, and the spread was amazing.

"By the way, do you still have Mr. Gu's calligraphy and paintings for sale in your store?"

someone asked loudly.

He Yongliang nodded subconsciously: "Yes, there is still a part."

There are indeed more than [-] calligraphy and paintings in the shop, which are left over from when Gu Ming set up a street stall before.

"Quick, I want to choose one!"

The man didn't even ask the price, as if he couldn't wait.

This reminded the others, and they rushed forward immediately.

"I want to choose one too"

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze, I don't choose, just give me a picture"

He Yongliang and Dong Sheng looked at each other, couldn't help smiling, and raised the price on the spot.

"Everyone line up, come one by one, one tael for one piece"

"So expensive?"

Someone asked weakly.

As a result, the people at the back of the row immediately shouted: "If you think it's too expensive, go to the back of the row."

More than [-] pieces of calligraphy and painting were quickly looted, and those who didn't get them were naturally unwilling, and kept asking when they would be available again.

But at this moment, Gu Ming was sitting in the county government office, as if the moon was surrounded by stars.

The gentry in Yuantong Town were very grateful for the demon being wiped out yesterday.

In addition, I heard that Gu Ming was the magistrate's beloved son-in-law, so he was very active. In the afternoon, eight squires rushed to the county seat and visited the magistrate together.

In this regard, Nie Hongshu has a bright face, so he sent someone to call Gu Ming to the county government early in the morning.

Several squires followed, expressing their sincere thanks one after another.

"Mr. Gu, if you hadn't acted in time to subdue the demon this time, Yuantong Town would definitely be bleeding like a river."

"Yes, Mr. Gu is the savior of all the people in our town!"

"Please accept my worship"

"You don't have to be too polite!"

Gu Ming took a step forward and lightly raised the leader's arm.

At this time, Nie Hongshu was not very pleased, he stroked his beard and smiled.

In fact, this incident not only made him look good, but also had an impact on his political achievements that cannot be ignored.

After all, it was the time of the Yuantong Town Temple Fair, and at least thousands of people stayed in the town.

Once that monster ran ashore, the consequences would be disastrous.

Once things get serious, Nie Hongshu, as a county magistrate, will naturally not be exempt from responsibility, and will definitely be punished by his superiors, and may even lose his position.

Now it's just the opposite.

He has reported the matter to the government office, and he believes that his superiors will definitely reward him.

"Master County Magistrate, we have already discussed it, and we will definitely ask the craftsman to customize a gold-lettered plaque for Mr. Gu."

"Hehe, everyone has a heart."

"In addition, we have pooled together 300 taels of silver, and hope that the Lord will award it to Mr. Gu in the name of the county government, as a token of our modest kindness."

This is where they are smart.

It's the same gift of money, but the meaning is quite different after such a twist of hands.

It can be said that all three parties have face.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Nie Hongshu couldn't help smiling and nodding his head: "Well, everyone is very considerate."

The father-in-law said so, so Gu Ming naturally couldn't refuse, so he smiled and cupped his hands: "Then thank you for your kindness."

"It should be."

"I booked a banquet at Zuixianlou, and hope that the county magistrate and Mr. Gu will enjoy a few drinks."

Needless to say, some courtesy.

In the afternoon, a notice was posted outside the county government, attracting many people to watch.

"Look, what am I talking about? Now even the government notices say that Yuantong Town is plagued by demons."

"It's too scary. Last time I heard that there were demons in the city, many people thought it was a rumor."

"I didn't expect Gu Xiucai to have the ability to catch monsters. I underestimated him before."

"What is Gu Xiucai? Now I have to call him Mr. Gu."

In the notice, it also specifically stated that all the squires in Yuantong Town expressed their gratitude and collected 300 taels of silver as a thank you gift.

This is really enviable.

After all, 300 taels of silver may not be able to earn so much in a lifetime for ordinary people.

the other side.

Gu Ming returned to the study with a flushed face.

"Master Gu"

"Oh, Mr. Gu, you are back!"

"Young Master Gu, I want to ask for a letter"

Look, now it’s not called buying, it’s called “begging!”

Seeing more than a dozen people rushing forward with enthusiasm, Gu Ming was a little dazed for a while.

"star"

He Yongliang squeezed into the crowd like a slippery loach, dragged Gu Ming out of the crowd, and whispered: "Pretend to be drunk first, and I'll tell you the details later."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ming stroked his forehead immediately: "I'm a little bit overwhelmed, everyone, I'm sorry, I'll go to rest for a while."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Gu may have drunk too much. You might as well come back tomorrow, or you can choose a few books to go back and read slowly."

Dong Sheng cooperated tacitly and stepped forward to comfort him.

At the same time, He Yongliang pretended to support Gu Ming towards the inner hall.

Once inside, close the door.

"What's the matter with these people?" Gu Ming couldn't help asking.

"You don't even know?" He Yongliang immediately got excited: "The story of you exterminating demons in Yuantong Town yesterday has already spread.

These people came to buy your calligraphy and paintings, saying that hanging them at home can suppress demons and ward off evil spirits."

"Haha, that's what it is."

"Don't laugh, this is a business opportunity. This morning, the remaining calligraphy and paintings you had before were all sold out. Guess how much a piece is?"

Gu Ming blinked and hesitated, "Two hundred?"

"You can be bolder."

"Ten taels?"
