Go back to the Song Dynasty as a broker

The hazy moonlight sprinkled on the backyard of Xiao's house, and with the addition of a few lanterns hanging on the promenade, the whole yard was illuminated with a little light.

With the chirping of Xia Chan, the courtyard would not take advantage of it.Si Qinghu glanced at the gate of the yard, but there was no one around.

She relaxed and walked towards the row of rooms.

She saw Xiao Lizhi from this yard that time picking flowers, and guessed that this place might be Xiao Tong's yard, so she looked for it from several rooms in this yard, if she couldn't find it, it meant that Xiao Tong was not in this yard, then she I don't plan to continue searching, so as not to alarm the Xiao family to make a rude move.

Just thinking about this, she opened the first door. This was the only room where candlelight could be seen through the door leaf. There must be someone inside.

After entering, gently close the door and look around.

This is a rather large room with exquisite decoration.There is a book case and a bookcase outside. Scanning the wall next to the book case, one can see the portrait of a woman at a glance. It is the scene of Si Qinghu playing the pipa on the Fantai two years ago.

There are eight scenic spots in Bianliang, one of which is the splendid spring scene.Every spring, there are peaches and plums on the stage, and the flowers are like a brocade. Both high-ranking officials and ordinary people love to come here for spring. That year, Si Qinghu was invited to perform in the stage pavilion.Maybe it was at that time that Xiao Tong asked someone to draw it!

Without much doubt, this room belongs to Xiao Tong.

Si Qinghu lifted the bead curtain hanging on the moon gate, walked to the inner room, and saw Xiao Tong lying on the sandalwood canopy bed.

Si Qinghu sat down on the stool beside the bed, first he stretched out his hand to touch Xiao Tong's forehead, it didn't feel very hot, and the big rock that had been hanging on his heart for a whole day finally fell down.

Looking at the person on the bed, the long hair is scattered behind the back, and a few strands of hair fall on the smooth face, breathing evenly, as peaceful as a baby.

This is the first time I saw such a quiet Xiao Tong, so beautiful!

The corner of Si Qinghu's mouth twitched, and he stretched out his hand again, his longing eyes fell on this fragile face, he hesitated for a moment, and finally stroked it gently with his hand, and said softly: "I don't worry that you are fine. You are welcome to rest, I will go first."

As soon as she turned around, the person on the bed suddenly said hoarsely, "Water!"

Si Qinghu's body trembled, and he froze on the spot.

"water."

Si Qinghu quickly went to the side and poured a glass of water, and after confirming that it was still warm, she held it in front of Xiao Tong, held her chin, and fed it in small mouthfuls.

Xiao Tong drank water, his dry and sore throat became much more moisturised, and smelled a familiar aroma, she couldn't help but open her thick eyelids, squinting to see Si Qinghu's blurred appearance.

But only for a moment, before she had time to think about why Si Qinghu was here, she fell back into a coma.

The people in front of him fell silent again, and Si Qinghu got up again to leave.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw a black human wall blocking his way.

Shocked, she raised her head suddenly, her face pale with fright.

The man smiled and looked at her with a little playfulness in his eyes.

"Why are you here in the middle of the night?"

Feeling like being caught as a thief, Si Qinghu's cheeks became hot, and he lowered his face, begging in a low voice: "Senior sister, don't say it."

"If you don't tell the truth, I'll call someone!" Xiao Yi pretended to be serious.

"I... My yard is next door. I accidentally walked the wrong way. I'll go back now."

Just as Si Qinghu was about to step out of the room, Xiao Yi stepped forward to block her.Si Qinghu saw her raising her chin and staring at her with "dissatisfaction" written all over her face. After thinking for a while, she changed her words: "I'm not worried about Mr. Xiao, I want to see her, but I'm afraid others will misunderstand her. I just live in the yard next door, so come and take a look!"

Xiao Yi showed a sly smile, "Is it really a misunderstanding?"

Si Qinghu's face was red.

"If you don't have ghosts in your heart, why don't you come here during the day?"

"Senior sister, you bullied me!" Si Qinghu looked at Xiao Yi reproachfully.

Xiao Yi giggled, this junior sister blushed even more than the paper lanterns on the promenade, even when she complained, her voice was soft and sticky, never seen her like this before, she is so cute!

"Sister!"

"Hahaha, well, I won't tease you anymore, you go back to your room first, and I'll explain it to you."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yi walked towards the gate of the yard, and Si Qinghu returned to Xiao Tong's room.

After waiting for a while, Xiao Yi came in with a bowl of medicine, fed Xiao Tong the medicine first, then went out, sat in front of Si Qinghu and said, "Just then Ling'er hurried out and said that a white shadow had entered Yard, just happened to be touched by me, so I guessed it was you."

"Senior Sister, have you already seen it?" Si Qinghu asked.

Xiao Yi nodded, not only did she see that Si Qinghu liked Xiao Tong a month ago, she also knew that the courtyard next door was Xiao's Dental Shop.

She loves to eat pears, and every year when the pears are ripe, she will climb up the tree to pick pears. When she urinates, she knows that Xiao's Dental Shop is opposite, and many people in the Xiao family know it.

"Does Xiao Tong know?" Si Qinghu asked.

Xiao Yi shook his head, "I probably don't know, she doesn't like pears, and she didn't care about teeth before."

Si Qinghu smiled, it was a coincidence that their yard was next door.

"Tell me, you used to hate our family so much, why did you suddenly fall in love with it?"

Xiao Tong was too dandy in the past, he only knew how to lose money, never studied hard, and achieved nothing.Xiao Yi couldn't get used to it the most, he always quarreled with her, so he gave her such a nickname in a fit of anger.

Si Qinghu was speechless, what should she say, praise Xiao Tong?

After thinking about it, he said briefly, "You know that she has changed, and I like her change."

Xiao Yi sighed, it's no wonder that Xiao Tong is indeed much more sensible and smart now, not only Si Qinghu, but even she has begun to appreciate it.

"Then what are you going to do?" Xiao Yi asked again.

Si Qinghu lowered his eyes and clasped his fingers apprehensively, "I don't know what Xiao Tong is thinking."

Say you don't like her, but you're usually nice to her.Said that he liked her, but without the sweet words of the past, the only conversations he had were business matters, which really made her unsure.

"I think she still likes you,"

As Xiao Yi said, he glanced at the portrait of Si Qinghu on the wall, which is the best evidence.

"It's just that I have too many things to do now, and I can't take care of it. Maybe I'm sick and weak, so I'm cold in that regard."

"Even you said that." Si Qinghu became anxious.

She still remembered that before Xiao Tong and Jia Luo planned to go to the brothel to raise money more than a month ago, Jia Luo asked Xiao Tong if he had lost his kidney disease.She also knows a little bit about medical theory, if the spleen and kidney are really damaged, the mind will indeed become cold.

But Xiao Tong is only indifferent to love affairs, but he is very concerned about dental practice, which is not in line with pathology.So she still didn't want to believe that Xiao Tong's indifference to her was due to her weakness.

She felt that it was she who made Xiao Tong swear before signing the contract with Xiao Shiya.Because of the oath, Xiao Tong didn't dare to cross the threshold.

I couldn't help feeling annoyed, "Hey, why did I make her swear when I'm fine!"

Xiao Yi said: "Don't worry about it, I'll help you and tell her!"

Si Qinghu thought for a while, and said: "Forget it. Don't say it, she is sick now, and Hua Mulan hasn't performed yet, so it's better not to distract her. Besides, I don't know how to speak."

Could it be that she walked up to Xiao Tong and said suddenly, "I like you", and then Xiao Tong looked puzzled, that would not be embarrassing!

She believes that all feelings are connected, one action and one look are enough to understand, so why need more words?

If Xiao Tong really cared about her, one day he would be able to feel her heart.

On the second day, when Xiao Tong woke up, his body finally didn't feel that hot and cold feeling anymore, and his eyes became much clearer.

Xiao Lizhi helped her to sit up, and just after she finished drinking the medicine, she pleaded hoarsely to Jiang who was beside her: "Grandma, I'm much better today, just let me go back to my teeth!"

Leaning on crutches, Jiang stood in front of the bed, and said coldly: "No, you haven't recovered well yet, do you want to get sick again and scare grandma to death?"

Nanny Li also persuaded: "If you are in charge, you should listen to the old lady and take care of it for a few days first, and then go back when you recover. You don't know that the old lady stayed by your bedside for a whole day yesterday, and didn't wait until the night when your fever subsided. I'm willing to go back. If you don't rest, the old lady will suffer!"

Xiao Tong was so ashamed by what was said, and after looking at Jiang's haggard face, he finally didn't dare to say anything.

Although people can't go back to their teeth, but there is always a stone in her heart that can't be put down. She grabs her chair and Xiao Zhen asks questions, how is the rehearsal, how is the progress of "Mulan" serialized in tabloids, readers Any feedback?

Xiao Yi got impatient from being tossed about, and when he returned to the tooth shop, he took the opportunity to grab the thief who overturned the wall last night openly.

She and Si Qinghu were walking on the promenade in the backyard of Xiao's house, and Xiao Yi complained: "I'm almost annoyed by her, she obviously has a sore throat, she keeps asking questions, and she asks me to go to grandma to beg her to let her go back to work." ! Your own people, give advice!"

"My people!" Si Qinghu muttered shyly.

"Don't worry, just tell me how you want to see her in the future!"

"Thank you, sister."

Looking at Si Qinghu's sweet and shy smile, Xiao Yi also smiled.

This is how the junior sister, who used to look deserted, likes someone.

As soon as they stepped into Xiao Tong's courtyard, they saw Xiao Lizhi and Nanny Li walking out with a Taoist priest in yellow robes and holding a whisk.

Xiao Yi asked in surprise, "What happened?"

Nanny Li said: "Old Madam heard that a fox entered the yard last night, and felt that the head of the house must have been entangled by a fox spirit before getting sick, so she asked the Taoist priest to do it."

Xiao Lizhi also said in a serious manner: "The Taoist priest said that fortunately the third lady was driven away last night, otherwise the vixen would have sucked up all the family's essence."

Xiao Yi and Si Qinghu were startled at the same time, then lowered their faces guiltily, and continued walking.

After Nanny Li and the others walked away, the "fox spirit" glared at Xiao Yi, "What's going on?"

Xiao Yi had no choice but to tell the truth.

Last night, Little Lizhi hurried out, not only ran into Xiao Yi, but also ran into two servants who were watching the night. When they heard that Bai Ying had entered the yard of the master, the two servants wanted to run in. Xiao Yi thought it might be Siqing Lake, Then stop them outside the yard.

After she went to Xiao Tong's room and found that it was really Si Qinghu, she went out and confessed.

That little Lizhi clearly saw the white shadow, so she couldn't say that nothing happened, so she made up an excuse, saying that a white fox had come in and chased her away.Unexpectedly, this matter caused a lot of trouble in the whole family early this morning, and even invited a mage to do the Dharma!

Si Qinghu immediately lost his temper. If it hadn't been for meeting Xiao Yi, it would not be the fox who made a fuss in Xiao's house, but Si Qinghu herself!

Xiao Tong had just been swayed by the Taoist priest, and finally calmed down, lay down and wanted to sleep, but from yesterday to today, he slept too much, and couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning.

"Big eater, look who's coming to see you!"

When Xiao Yi's words came, Xiao Tong vaguely saw a thin white figure through the bead curtain, recognized it as Si Qinghu, immediately became interested, and sat up excitedly.

"Qinghu, you are here!"

The voice was dry and hoarse, like a teal duck calling.

Si Qinghu opened the curtain and walked in, with a disgusted expression on his face, he said: "If you can't talk, then talk less, it's so ugly!"

Xiao Tong immediately didn't dare to say anything, and watched Si Qinghu sit on the edge of her bed intently.

Xiao Yi brought people here, but it was not easy to make a big lantern, so he left wisely.

Xiao Tong couldn't help but said nervously: "Qinghu, how is the rehearsal going?"

Si Qinghu said softly: "Everything is fine, you can rest at ease to recuperate."

Xiao Tong felt that every expression and every eye of the person in front of him was tender and tender, Xiao Tong felt itchy when he saw it, his throat felt dry for a while, and he swallowed unnaturally.

Si Qinghu saw it in his eyes, and quickly poured her a glass. She was about to take it when the water glass came to her mouth.

She glanced at Si Qinghu in surprise, the man looked indifferent, as if there was nothing to worry about.

That's right, this kind of thing between two women couldn't be more normal.She likes women so she has scruples, but Si Qinghu may not.

Then she opened her mouth to drink water obediently, and couldn't help but look up at Si Qinghu.Suddenly, I felt that this scene was a little familiar, as if it happened last night.

At that time, she squinted her eyes half-closed, vaguely as if she saw Si Qinghu feeding her water just like now.

But she couldn't see it clearly, shouldn't she!How could Si Qinghu appear in her room in the middle of the night?It might be her hallucination, or it might just be a dream!

Si Qinghu put the water glass back on the tea table a few steps away, and turned his back to Xiao Tong to sort out his nervous emotions.

Just now she brought the water to Xiao Tong's mouth with her own hands, it's not like she didn't hesitate.It's just that a conversation with Xiao Yi last night made her figure it out. At least she can't hide her liking for Xiao Tong from Xiao Tong, and treat her as she likes, otherwise Xiao Tong won't be able to see it in his life. understand her mind.

She took out the red kit in her sleeve, summoned up the courage to turn around, and pretended to be natural: "Shiro, how do you feel today?"

Xiao Tong said: "I'm much better, and I can go back to my teeth tomorrow."

Si Qinghu returned to her, and said, "You rest for a few days, I'm here for the rehearsal, what are you worried about!"

Xiao Tong pouted, feeling a little frustrated, thinking that no one would plead for her to let her return her teeth.

"When will your medicine jar body recover? You get sick every now and then?"

Xiao Tong was dejected and kept silent. She also felt that she was very weak and could have a high fever even after eating popcorn.

"I heard that wearing silver has the effect of dispelling wind. I have a silver ornament here. Someone gave it to me a few years ago. I will wear it for you. It may help you recover."

Si Qinghu took out a red string from the kit, with a shiny silver ornament at the end, and hung it in front of Xiao Tong.

Xiao Tong looked at the curled up little silver cat, squinting his eyes and sleeping lazily, very cute.She was a little flattered, "How dare I accept it?"

Si Qinghu was afraid that she would think it was too expensive, so he hurriedly said: "Don't misunderstand, this is not a valuable item, and it was given to me by an irrelevant person, so I keep it!"

"OK then!"

Since it was a misunderstanding, Si Qinghu didn't have that kind of intention, so it's okay for Xiao Tong to accept it.

"I'll put it on for you."

Si Qinghu got up, leaned over to Xiao Tong, pulled the red rope with both hands, wrapped it around Xiao Tong's neck, and put it on for her.

Xiao Tong smelled the unique fragrance from her neck, she saw the snow-white skin in front of her eyes, her heart was surging like a spring, and she couldn't help blushing and her heart beating.

Straight girl teasing Ji is really killing people!

If it wasn't for being misunderstood to have an affair with his own artist in his previous life, it would be used as a reason for criticism; if it wasn't for his vow that he would not have any unreasonable thoughts about Si Qinghu.In this situation, she really can't help but hold her down and ask her, "Are you playing with fire?"

Putting the silver pendant on her, Si Qinghu chatted with her about opera for a while before leaving.

After three days, Xiao Tong's fever finally showed no signs of recurrence, and the Jiang family finally released her.

She first went back to the tooth shop to deal with the affairs, remembered about the popcorn shop, then returned to Xiao's house in the afternoon, Mrs. Chen was already waiting for her in the kitchen.

Seeing her come in, her peach blossom eyes were sparkling, and she smiled enthusiastically, "Siro, my aunt has been praying to God and worshiping Buddha for the past few days, and I finally hope for you!"

Xiao Tong smiled brightly: "Siro has been waiting for today for a long time!"

Mrs. Chen set his servants on fire, and watched Xiao Tong roll up his sleeves and pour the oil into the pot.

Xiao Tong took a look at the ingredients of the stove, rice, brown sugar, salt, oil, vanilla extract, this time it was more complete than last time, and she asked Mrs. Chen to prepare it.

Modern caramel popcorn tastes so good without these toppings.

While making it, Xiao Tong said: "Actually, this caramel popcorn is easy to make. It's nothing more than popping the rice first, and then caramelizing it. The key is to control the heat so that it doesn't get too burnt!"

In her previous life, when Xiao Tong was a child, her grandfather sold hand-cooked popcorn at a stall. At that time, she was curious about everything, so she asked her grandfather to teach her how to make it.Later, the living conditions of their family improved, and my grandfather stopped selling popcorn, and she didn't do it anymore.

But when people get older, they will have a deeper understanding of things when they were young.

That day, she was just trying it out of curiosity, but she didn't expect that the taste was almost the same as what she ate when she was a child.

She knows that the production process of caramel popcorn is the ingredients used in the two eras. The equipment is different and needs to be flexible.

Chen watched Xiao Tong do it all the way, and wrote down the most complicated and difficult steps.

After a pot of rice crackers popped, a strong sweet smell wafted into the air, Mrs. Chen didn't care about the dignified and elegant lady, and directly grabbed it into her mouth with her hands, eating with relish.

Xiao Tong licked his lips, and stretched out his hand to grab her. Mrs. Chen slapped her paw fiercely, and said fiercely: "You son of a bitch, do you want to die!"

Xiao Tong withdrew his hand, held his mouth shut, feeling aggrieved.

She remembered what happened to Xiao Zi that day, and said again: "But Auntie, speaking of Xiao Zi, since he can't study, why not let him come out to do business and let her open a popcorn shop for you."

Chen's smile froze instantly, and his chewing slowed down, "When did I say I'm going to open a shop?"

Xiao Tong was stunned, didn't Chen learn how to make caramel popcorn to open a shop?

"Auntie, you are notoriously talkative, this popcorn tastes good even to you, do you think it won't make money?" Xiao Tong lobbied cheekily again, "Besides, the cost of opening a store like this is too high. Not much, besides you, the dental clinic will also invest money."

To open such a popcorn shop, you only need to rent a bunk in Wazi and hire a master.

Xiao's dental firm and Chen's each contributed [-]% of the capital.Since the technology and ideas are all from Xiao Tong, and she will be required to provide sales strategies at that time, so in terms of share, Xiao's business will naturally take the majority, and Chen's will only get [-]%.

Mrs. Chen is a person who is good at calculating. Hearing what Xiao Tong said, he naturally calculated the low cost of opening a popcorn shop.

Moreover, many spectators who bought cheap tickets in the hook column did not have the awareness to bring food into the venue.According to Xiao Tong's opinion, if they eat it well and develop the habit of eating popcorn while watching performances, then she can open a few more semicolons, and the profits will be immeasurable.

As long as Xiao Tong has an idea to sell, it doesn't matter if she takes a little less share.

Look at Si Qinghu's signing in Xiao's line. Everyone in the market, including her, thought that Si Qinghu's reputation would fade due to being dragged down. Unexpectedly, Xiao Tong held a re-concert and successfully restored her reputation. Not falling but rising;

And that tabloid, which had only been released for a month or so, was sold all over Beijing. Even when she went to the Town God's Temple, she could see many women holding copies.

Not to mention those tailor shops, makeup shops, and jewelry shops that advertise in tabloids, which one doesn't make a lot of money?

She has already seen Xiao Tong's methods of making money, and feels that if she follows her, she will make a steady profit without losing money, and it is worth it to get a little less share!

After thinking about it, she said straightforwardly: "Okay, then let's try to open a family!"

Xiao Tong smiled happily, "Auntie, you really have vision!"

"Then Xiao Zi..."

Xiao Tong looked at Chen's tentatively, Xiao Zi, this cousin, used to love to eat, drink and have fun with the original body, she knew exactly what kind of person he was.I'm usually stunned, so I can learn to start a small business, but I don't want to count on my academic achievements in this life!Reading any further is a waste of money.

Chen fell silent, lowered her head, the more she chewed the sweet Bolou in her mouth, the more she felt her heart ache, her eyes were soon filled with red, and the teardrops swirled and rolled inside.

"Auntie, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Tong asked nervously.

Chen sobbed, and the tears couldn't hold back anymore, Xiao Tong quickly wiped her with his sleeve, and comforted her: "What happened, you tell Shiro."

Mrs. Chen complained, "Xiao Zi, a prodigal son, I worked so hard to save so much money to send her to the best academy, but the head of the academy sent her back the day before yesterday! It is said that after studying for so long, even an article I can’t even write it, and I’m afraid it will damage the reputation of the academy if I continue to read it.”

Chen felt ashamed to death.Thinking about how she lost her husband in the early years and was a widow for many years and worked so hard to raise those three siblings, but none of them made her feel at ease!

The eldest daughter refused to listen to her persuasion and married a woman, but in the end she only ended up amicable; the second daughter didn't stick to her family, and she didn't see her for a few months a year; what about the youngest?In the past, there was a more dandy Xiao Tong who was a little relieved in comparison, but now that Xiao Tong has changed his skills, this youngest son has become the worst one among brothers and sisters!

Although it was quite unfortunate, Xiao Tong couldn't help but secretly laughed twice in his heart.Isn't this just right, after being bombarded by the academy, I can sell popcorn.

She pretended to be sympathetic and comforted: "Auntie, don't be sad, 360 lines, you can be the number one scholar! Since Xiao Zi is not sensible, if he can't read well, give him some hardships in life, maybe he will know when he is suffering. Good reading."

Mrs. Chen was persuaded by Xiao Tong, and after going back, she released Xiao Zi from the study, let him learn to make caramel popcorn, and then went to look for a bunk outside the lotus shed.

The reason why it is outside the lotus shed is because since Xiao Tong and the owner of the lotus shed co-organized Si Qinghu's re-singing concert, the geisha from Xiao's line have also appeared in several performances in the lotus shed, and they have a good relationship.This time, the "Mulan" opera has been discussed since the preparation of the crew. First, it will be performed in the lotus shed for three consecutive days.

The popcorn shop is opened outside the Lotus Pavilion, so it will be convenient for a bundled sale with "Mulan" at that time, so as to cultivate the habit of eating popcorn while watching the show.

After hearing the plan, Xiao Zi felt that the hero had a place to use, so he put all his energy into finding a berth, hiring a master, buying rice, and doing it one by one!

In addition to the lotus shed, Xiao Tong also had a good talk with Gou Lan, two other acquaintances. When he got off the lotus shed, he went to each of those two houses to perform two performances.For the rest, if "Mulan" becomes popular, some people will come to ask for performances.

On the seventh day of June, Xiao Tong finally asked Xiao Zhen to publish in the tabloid the news that "Mulan" would be staged at the Lotus Pavilion on the evening of Qixi Festival, and began to pre-sell tickets.

That day, the geisha were tired from rehearsal, and they all sat on the floor in the rehearsal room, chatting and laughing.

Jia Luo and Xiao Yunu stuck around Xiao Tong and talked non-stop.

In the sweltering weather, more than a dozen people gathered in one room, and there were no air-conditioning fans in this era, so it was so hot that people were sweating.

Xiao Tong wiped the sweat on his neck with a handkerchief, and accidentally turned the silver pendant inside out.

The sharp-eyed Jia Luo quickly spotted it, and leaned forward, holding the silver pendant to look at it carefully.

"Since when did you wear silverware?"

She was so close that Xiao Tong was completely restrained, so he moved his body back to create a little distance.

Looking at the kitten with the silver pendant, Jia Luo was overjoyed: "This little raccoon slave is so cute, who gave it to you?"

Xiao Tong squeezed out a smile awkwardly, and looked at Si Qinghu opposite.

Si Qinghu and Linger were also sitting on the ground, she was wiping the sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief, she glanced at Xiao Tong from time to time, Xiao Tong and Jia Luo were too close to make her irritable, she simply turned her back, Out of sight is pure!

For some reason, Xiao Tong felt that Si Qinghu was unhappy.

Perhaps it was because she and Jia Luo acted in such a way that it was really out of manners in the public.

She quickly pulled back the silver cat held by Jia Luo, and said, "I bought it myself!"

She glanced at Si Qinghu's back with a guilty conscience. Did she do the right thing when she said that?

It can't be said to the public that it was sent by Si Qinghu. Where does this put her reputation?

At that time, they obviously have nothing, and they are rumored to have something, saying that it is the most convenient to buy by themselves!

Just as Jia Luo was about to get to the bottom of it, Lin Yifang hurried in with a tabloid.

"Shiro, take a quick look, this Bai's dental practice is too shameless!"

Lin Yifang handed the tabloid to Xiao Tong.

It was a colorful tabloid, with the name of the tabloid "Da Song Fenghua" written on the cover, and a charming portrait was painted on it.

Xiao Tong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and moved to Si Qinghu's side, "Qinghu, look who this is?"

Si Qinghu looked at the color newspaper in Xiao Tong's hand. On the cover was a woman with charming makeup, dressed in a bright red floor-length dress and a phoenix crown, looking gorgeous and exaggerated.

This woman is none other than Liu Qingmu from Qingyufang.

Xiao Tong flipped through this issue of "Great Song Fenghua" again, from the cover to the content section, it is exactly the same as their "Bianjing Fenghua", and there will be novels serialized later!

Xiao Tong laughed out loud, "I knew there would be a counterfeit version!"

Si Qinghu looked at her indecent look and was annoyed, "You can still laugh, Bai's Dental Shop and Qingyufang have teamed up!"

This shows that their tabloid has competitors!

Lin Yifang also said: "Silang, this matter cannot be taken lightly. This tabloid is sold in other bookstores except one bookstore. You can also send someone to sell it in Washeri like us."

Xiao Tong said indifferently: "This kind of thing is unavoidable, and it's useless for us to worry."

In her previous life, she also worked in the entertainment industry, and plagiarism has happened a lot, and it is indeed inevitable.There are millions of people in Bianjing, as long as their tabloids are good enough, they are not afraid that no one will buy them.

"You wouldn't spend money to buy it, sister Fang?" Xiao Tong asked suddenly.

Lin Fang shook his head, it was given to her by another friend who opened a bookshop.

Xiao Tong smiled lightly.

Look, the first issue of their tabloid was sold out, and this counterfeit tabloid also has a colorful version as a gift!

This momentum cannot be compared.

She flipped through the counterfeit tabloid again. The products on the cover were women's products, and the content in the news section was quite dirty and obscene, all of which were vulgar affairs between geisha and guests.

In the shopping area, all kinds of advertisements are answered, one for rouge, one for wine, and one for medicinal materials.

Looking at the serialization of the novel again, Xiao Tong and Si Qinghu made an overview and almost laughed out loud.

A country bumpkin enters Bianjing, makes a fortune along the way, becomes the owner of the largest geisha dental shop, and finally marries four wives, a story of family harmony.

Lin Fangfang told them: "I heard that this novel is based on Bai's grandfather."

Xiao Tong smiled, because he heard from his family that the founder of Bai's Dental Shop really came out of the countryside to work hard, relying on the support of his regular wife to make a fortune, and later married a third-bedroom concubine, but the family struggled endlessly. In the end, the founder It was still when the main wife was fighting with the concubine, she was crushed to death by mistake.

The words in this novel are vulgar, and the plot is illogical. It will be a poor male novel for future generations.

Xiao Tong said: "Their readers should be men, right?"

Lin Fang said: "Perhaps the newspaper publisher didn't think of selling it to men or women, but Shiro was right. There are indeed many men in the market rushing to buy their black and white edition."

Xiao Tong is relieved, this is not a big threat to their tabloids, after all, what they do is geared towards women.

Si Qinghu also relaxed his mood, and said with a smile: "The upper-class scholar-bureaucrats and noble sons have elegant tastes, and I don't think they may like such vulgar content. The men of the lower class have the financial resources, at most, they can buy the black and white version."

She looked at Liu Qingmu on the cover, a little distressed and a little funny.

A well-known and well-known actor with a noble and elegant image, I have to make a cover for these dirty things to lower the style!

Xiao Tong couldn't help squinting his star eyes, and looked at Si Qinghu with admiration.

He is as beautiful as a fairy, and he can sing, compose, act, martial arts, pipa, and now he can analyze the market.

What a treasure girl!

When Bai's Yaxing and Qingyufang published their newspapers, they never thought about what kind of readers they wanted. They only knew that copycats would follow suit and fill in the content according to their own bad tastes.

In the end, the content only catered to lower-class male readers. It is true that cheap black-and-white newspapers are easy to sell, but expensive color newspapers are not bothered by upper-class scholar-bureaucrats!

Those who can buy are probably the fans of Liu Qingmu on the cover. After reading the content, they may still become fans!

Xiao Tong looked at the male novel, and guessed that they created it to fill the tabloids with the trend, and never thought about rehearsing operas.

Besides, the secrecy work during the rehearsal period of "Mulan" was done very well, and Qingyufang probably didn't get any news, let alone rehearse a part.

She is not afraid of others following suit, but she is afraid of following too fast, grab resources with her!

Xiao Tong breathed a sigh of relief, comforting Lin Fangfang to relax, this tabloid will not threaten them!

In the inner hall of Qingyufang, Liu Qingmu was holding two colorful tabloids, and looked at the covers of the two tabloids, one was his own portrait, and the other was Si Qinghu's.

Her charming and delicate face twisted into a rope in anger.

Aunt Yu, who was sitting next to her, said, "Don't blame your tabloid for three days. Look at Qinghu's painting, it's so exquisite! That's Mr. Bai, the painter I haven't invited you yet. Let's look at the contents again..."

Aunt Yu stopped talking, out of breath.

Since forcing Si Qinghu away, the most profitable geisha in her Qingyufang is Liu Qingmu, and now the tabloid co-organized with Bai's Dental Shop is full of bad tastes of the Bai family.After painting Liu Qingmu on the cover, she was worried that Liu Qingmu's value would plummet, which would affect Qingyufang's money making!

Liu Qingmu looked at the tabloid on the cover of Si Qinghu, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

When the first issue of the tabloid co-organized by Xiao Tong and Yifang Bookstore was published, she saw that the painting of Si Qinghu on the cover was so beautiful, and it was sold to a wealthy family, and she felt jealous.

Looking at the geisha news in the tabloids, it is obviously Xiao Shixing's subjective choice.

Si Qinghu appeared from time to time, as well as those geisha who cooperated with Xiao's line.She, Liu Qingmu, and the geisha in Qingyufang didn't have any splashes at all.People who didn't know thought she wasn't famous enough, and didn't even have news!

Aunt Yu wanted to have the cheek to talk to Xiao Tong about cooperation, but she stopped Aunt Yu when she remembered that Xiao Tong publicly rejected her on the street because of Si Qinghu.

Based on the belief that an enemy's enemy is a friend, Liu Qingmu proposed to cooperate with Bai's Dental Bank to run a tabloid.

Unexpectedly, [-] color newspapers were printed in the same first issue, and Si Qinghu's day was sold out, but hers were still sold out in three days!

Liu Qingmu gritted her teeth, holding the tabloid on the cover of Si Qinghu with both hands and wanted to tear it up. Aunt Yu rushed over nervously and pressed her hand, trying to persuade her: "No way! Auntie borrowed this from Mr. Tang. Return it to someone else's collection!"

After taking back the tabloid, Aunt Yu carefully tidied it up calmly and put it out of Liu Qingmu's reach.

When Liu Qingmu heard that this was a borrowed collector's edition, she got up so angrily that she could barely catch her breath!

Aunt Yu said again: "It's better not to cooperate with Bai's Dental Shop. At most, Auntie will have the cheek to go to Qinghu and plead with Xiao Silang."

Liu Qingmu said angrily: "Aunt Yu, don't allow others to destroy your prestige! Now that you have decided to cooperate with Master Bai, don't sway back and forth like grass on the wall!"

For so many years, she has always regarded Si Qinghu as a competitor.After finally pushing her out of Qingyufang, how can he bear to continue to cooperate with her now?

Instead of looking for Xiao Tong, why not go to Bai's Dental Shop to discuss how to adjust the tabloids!

Aunt Yu looked at Liu Qingmu's back, her restless walking posture, how could she have the demeanor of a famous geisha?

She sighed, looking at Si Qinghu on the cover of the tabloid, with a look of remorse.

At that time, after learning that Si Qinghu and Xiao Tong were working together, she still laughed at her for destroying her future, and ruining her good cards, wasting the painstaking cultivation of Qingyufang.

Seeing that her reputation has risen instead of falling, Xiao Shixing's heart is sour because of her getting better and better.

Why did she choose Liu Qingmu and look down on her?

Baishi Yahang is located on a street beside the Bian River in front of Da Nei, about two kilometers away from Qingyufang.Liu Qingmu soon arrived at Bai's Dental Shop, and was led into the inner hall by a servant.

Bai Shu, the head of Bai's Dental Shop, is a man in his early twenties. He wears a golden crown and a dark blue embroidered brocade suit. .

He saw Liu Qingmu walking in, and got up from his seat with a sinister smile, "Hey, it's Liu Qingmu, it's just in time, Bai just happened to have something to discuss with you."

Liu Qingmu didn't have a good temper, and directly threw the colorful tabloids on several cases, saying, "Master Bai, why can't this colorful tabloid be sold out? Is the content taste wrong?"

Bai Shu's face was indifferent, "I think black and white tabloids are selling well. I've made up my mind, we won't do color ones anymore."

"What?" Liu Qingmu was shocked and angry.

"The cost is high and it's not easy to sell, so forget it. By the way, let me show you something."

Baishu put a black and white tabloid
