[Qing] Princess is the first cute

After a period of waiting for food, the people in the capital finally fell into a carnival as a large number of printed picture books hit the shelves.

Of course, a large number is relative, and picture books are still in short supply, but it is guaranteed that a certain number of new products will be put on the shelves every day.

As a result, the line in front of Fucha's bookstore got longer and longer.

Now this street can be lively, people queuing worth mentioning,? There are ragged people running around.It is a newly developed business in the capital: errand boy. Because many people can't spare their time to line up to buy books, this business came into being.It was originally in charge of a little beggar. If you buy a book and take it back to the owner's house, you can get some food or a reward.Because books are hard to buy, they get more and more rewards, and now many poorer children from good families are also involved—the cost of running errands is now almost half the price of picture books.

Some people in the queue thought the little beggar was unclean, but they didn't dare to speak, and curled their lips as if they didn't see it.There is no way, the book lays down the rules, and those who scramble and make trouble refuse to receive them.

Therefore, although there are many people at the door, it is considered to be in order.

There are also clever little vendors who put their stalls directly at the door of the bookstore. What sells food, stools, candied candied haws and rattles—they are all for children. When you buy books, buy them by the way!

Needless to say, business is very good.

The shopkeeper of the bookstore opposite stood by the window with his hands in his hands, looking at the young men who were about [-], [-] and [-] thick, talking to their companions while nestling on a small, inferior wooden chair.

The companion asked suspiciously: "You only have one child in your family, why buy two sets of picture books?"

The young man chuckled and took a bite of the candied haws: "...show it to my wife."

Companion: "...Is your daughter-in-law illiterate?"

The young man choked for a moment before he argued, "Then I'll read it to her? If it doesn't work, I'll keep it. Maybe it will be very valuable in the future!"

The companion looked like I listened to you.

The shopkeeper saw that the middle-aged man behind the young man rolled his eyes, with a somewhat resentful expression on his face.

He felt that this person was probably saying in his heart: another person occupying the latrine, it won't be my turn to die, right? !

The shopkeeper sighed leisurely.

The guy was using a feather duster to clean up the dust on the bookshelf. Hearing this sound, he couldn't help but sighed and said, "The pirates at their door earn more money than us. Shopkeeper, didn't you just say it for a while? when?"

The shopkeeper turned his head: "Xiao Huang, you are not young, can you do physical work?"

"Yeah," the clerk patted his chest and said heartily, "I'm so strong, what work do you want me to do? Just tell me! Anyway, there's no one in the store, and I'm just bored."

The shopkeeper said in a leisurely tone, "There are plenty of jobs at Tongzhou Wharf. I know someone. How about introducing someone who pays you well?"

Xiao Huang's eyes widened.

He shrank his neck and went to work.

After a while, Xiao Huang came over again, and whispered: "Shopkeeper, why don't I find some people to make a fuss in their store?"

The shopkeeper stared at him with lowered eyes: "We are running a bookstore."

What do you learn in the book?

wisdom!

do you know?wisdom!

——The background on the opposite side is so tough, what a big-headed ghost you are!

Erdun came out of the restaurant feeling drunk.

With the popularity of picture books, he has now become a little celebrity.Almost every day someone treats guests to dinner.

Each has a purpose.

Some are for picture books, some are for business, some are for the princes and princesses behind him, and some are just for fun.

But Erdun is not a rigid person, why is there a purpose?Most people have various purposes at the beginning of their relationship, and whether they can maintain a good relationship for a long time is their own ability.Many of these people are people he could not reach before, and it is extremely rare to be able to make friends with this opportunity.

Therefore, he did not refuse most invitations, and returned home smelling of alcohol every day.Fortunately, he was working next to the emperor, and no one dared to persuade him to drink too much, so he was not drunk.

When passing by a small stall for buying accessories, he also saw a butterfly bead flower, and bought it to bring to Ning Huan.

The bead flower was not cheap, at least it was far more than the price of the goods at the stall, but because the shape, workmanship, and materials were all good, Erdun paid the bill without hesitation.

The boss was very enthusiastic: "Young master bought it for your daughter, right? I also have a hairpin here, it will look good on your wife."

He took out a small box from the cage at the bottom and opened it. On the red silk lay quietly a peach blossom hairpin. It was really beautiful, and it seemed to be of the same craftsmanship as the bead flower.

Boss: "This is you. I don't show it to ordinary people. You see, this hairpin and pearl flower are just a pair. Your wife and daughter have one each. I will give you a cheaper price."

"No, no, no, no..." Erdun waved his hand, and bought the hairpin with some silver.

Just as he was about to leave, the boss pulled him back and said in a low voice: "I saw that you are a good man who loves his wife and daughter. In this way, I have one more good thing..."

Erdun subconsciously: "What?"

The boss smiled mysteriously, and rummaged through the cage for a long time, took out something wrapped in red cloth, opened it layer by layer, and found a copy of "Snow White" inside.

Erdun: "..."

The boss was delighted by his expression, and proudly said: "I finally got it, I wanted to keep it for myself, and see if we hit it off, how about transferring five taels of silver to you?"

not so good?

This book can only be sold in their bookstore for less than a tael of silver. After deducting the cost and the share to the palace, he can't earn a penny for each book. The other party will earn forty or fifty times as much as he does. It's too bad !

Erdun turned and left.He turned his head and went to the yamen to report. The boss was still in a daze when he was invited to drink tea.

Fortunately, after verification, the boss got the pearl flower and the hairpin from a scholar, and he only dared to take it into the palace because he bought it at a low price without any disputes or unknown origins.

He even told the little masters about it as a joke.

But now, Erdun planned to go to the bookstore to take a look as usual.He no longer dared to go through the front door. He entered through the back door, and before he even entered the shop, he heard the dispute inside through a curtain.

It is said to be a dispute, but it is actually just one side being aggressive.

His nephew Bao'er said: "This is my shop, and the books belong to my second uncle. What's wrong with me giving each of my classmates a set of books? What are you? If you stop me, don't do it!"

Erdun returned the same way without saying a word.

It's not that there's no way to cure this kid, it's just that it's not worth it for a few books.He had to let him take it when he went in, which would only fuel the opponent's arrogance.

Erdun was a little upset, why is everything going wrong today?

Just go home.

He came home distraught, and felt that the atmosphere was not right as soon as he entered the door.Parents and eldest brother and sister-in-law were deadlocked across the table, and the old man was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes.

Erdun: "..."

Probably because he has been tossed a lot by the eldest couple, he is not angry at the moment, but upset.

...There is no end to worrying today, right?

He sat between the two groups of people without saying a word, knowing what was going on today.

Sure enough, the sister-in-law opened her mouth and said, "It's not that I've said it back then. I did say that all the money earned from picture books will go to my second uncle, but didn't I not expect that the business would be so big? Now not only are other books unsold, but also for nothing." Occupying the shop and labor, that’s not Second Uncle’s.”

Fart with your eyes open!

Picture books bring so much traffic, the other books bought by customers are enough to save the half-dead shop, and the shopkeeper remembers everything, not counting picture books, and the business of the shop has improved a lot during this period.

After all, it's just that he is greedy for the money he has made recently and wants to get a share of it.

He just lowered his eyes and remained silent, believing that the old man would deal with it fairly.

Mr. Fucha did have an idea. He was silent for a long time before he said, "You are right. When doing business, you need to distinguish clearly. My brothers will settle accounts clearly."

The sister-in-law smiled and nodded: "Actually, we are the eldest brother and sister-in-law, and we don't take advantage of the second uncle. We only need three points..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the old man: "Then let's split up!"

Sister-in-law: "...Li-what?"

Everyone was stunned, even Erdun didn't think of it.

He couldn't bear with his elder brother and sister-in-law long ago, but he was only worried about the old man, and never thought of separating the family, but today he brought it up by himself?

But the old man has made up his mind: "The big tree branches, and the National People's Congress separates the family. You are all grown up and have more thoughts, so why not divide the family now, so as not to turn against each other in the future."

He even decided on the distribution of the family property: "According to the usual practice, [-]% is given to the eldest child and [-]% to the second child. All other things in the house belong to the eldest child, and the bookstore belongs to the second child. Do you have any opinions?"

The sister-in-law rolled her eyes: "The location of the shop is very good..."

The old man didn't know what she was thinking, and said with a sneer, "Short-sighted things, the bookstore is making money now, do you think you can make money when it's in your hands?"

The sister-in-law was still dissatisfied, the elder brother held her down, hesitated for a moment and said: "Ama, the second brother is not married yet, we can't separate the family."

The old man's heart is smoother, at least this son didn't really marry a wife and forgot his mother, he snorted coldly and said: "Even if you still miss your brother, the marriage should be done by the public. Since you have the heart, give this house to me as well." Your younger brother, I will live with your mother-in-law and him."

"Ama!"

Parents have always lived with the eldest son, and the old couple lived with the second child. What face does he have?

The old man chuckled: "Isn't your brother not married yet? I should worry about your mother-in-law."

"But...but..."

The boss, but for a long time, did not say anything.The old man obviously hadn't been thinking about it for a day or two, so he quickly made a preliminary decision on the matter.

The sister-in-law still wants to criticize: "The resources that the second uncle occupies in the bookstore are also from the public, so they also get a point..."

It's only two 30 taels of silver.

Seeing that the old man was about to get angry again, just in time Bao'er came back full of ambition, obviously she had gained a lot of face with her classmates.

Erdun smiled slightly: "Sister-in-law wants to count us, let's not talk about anything else, just now Bao'er bought a few sets of books from the bookstore, you can settle the bill. It's not much, a set of seven books, One tael of silver per book, he took a set for each of fifteen or sixteen classmates, and wiped out the odds..."

He said, "Just give me 100 taels."

Sister-in-law: "..."
