The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

Less than eight years after the division of the world, Chu State wanted to divide the land again.Although the uncles and brothers in the room were dissatisfied with each other, they also knew that no one could dominate the family at this moment.It would be good if the land of Chu State can be divided equally, but how to divide it is still very troublesome.Suddenly, there was a noise outside, and everyone turned their heads to see that it was the queen mother who had been imprisoned for many days and walked in with her head held high.Behind her was a person who was recognized by someone, but Zhang San, the bodyguard invited from Beijing for the King of Chu.Several old ministers immediately rushed up and kowtowed with tears in their eyes.

The queen mother couldn't help but burst into tears, and said dejectedly: "My lord is ignorant, and he's burdening the state of Chu."

The veterans asked, "Where is the prince?"

The Queen Mother shook her head: "Master Zhang refused to tell me."

Only Zhang San said: "The king of Chu forbids the villain to reveal his whereabouts."

The old minister stumbled and said, "How can you listen to him for such a big matter!"

Zhang Sandao: "Take people's money and do things for others. I was hired by the king of Chu to rescue the queen mother, and it has been done." He made a group bow to everyone and smiled, "We are SHIELD. Our bureau not only sells news, I also do a lot of other business. Everyone here, I look forward to using cooperation in the future." After speaking, ignoring the stunned eyes of everyone, he turned and drifted away.

There was an uproar in the hall for a long time, and then the Queen Mother became a little scruples.Although the king of Chu never showed his face, it is considered a skill to be able to rescue his mother.First-rate assassins are always feared by those in high positions, especially the two princes of Chu State who have died due to assassins.

After many days of trouble, the state of Chu finally made seven big pieces and three small pieces.The founding king of Chu had seven sons.Because the current king of Chu led Ai Ji to escape from marriage, there is no trace of it, and the queen mother has another young son who succeeds the king of Chu, who is supported by a group of veterans; each of the six king uncles gets a piece.And there are three princes whose mothers are stronger get a small territory each, and the ones whose mothers are weaker stay with the Queen Mother to study.

The special envoy of the State of Chu was very anxious when he heard the news, so he rushed straight to the Falcon Bookstore, broke in without even looking around, saw Liu Xiaoqi, and shouted: "What's the matter with your bodyguards!"

Liu Xiaoqi was talking to someone, turned her head and said, "My lord special envoy is here~~ You King Chu is not bad, but I underestimated him."

The special envoy couldn't help being startled, and a hope quietly rose in his heart: "Where is our prince?"

Liu Xiaoqi said: "I don't know where he is now, it's just safe anyway."

The envoy said: "Why did your bodyguard let him escape?"

Liu Xiaoqi said: "Our bodyguards only protect his own safety. He is a client, so where will the bodyguards take care of him? Besides, he can only be killed if he runs away, so that the green hills are here and there is no need to worry about no firewood. "

The special envoy was shocked: "Who wants to make trouble?"

Liu Xiaoqi glanced at him: "Even though the Lu king at the beginning was suffering from Hualiu disease, he would not live for a few years without Hualiu disease. Liu Tong has become a foreign relative, but if he has two sons with Liu Tong's daughter, he will have to live for a few years. Death. If you, King Chu, don’t run away, Zuo will die like this.”

"Hiss..." The envoy took a deep breath.

Liu Xiaoqi said: "Since I have saved my life, there is no way I can make a comeback in the next year. The world is so big, what if?"

But he heard the person who just talked to him clap his hands and said: "Qi Ye still has this vision."

Liu Xiaoqi said: "It's just that the authorities are obsessed and bystanders are clear. I don't believe Master Feng didn't see it." Only now did the special envoy of the King of Chu realize that Feng Ziying, the chief executive of the King of Yan, was sitting opposite Liu Xiaoqi, having tea.

Feng Ziying said: "The general trend of the world, what advice does Qi Ye have?"

Liu Xiaoqi said: "Although the time is still short, the first wave of contests has already roughly won and lost. In the future, we only need to see which of the next kings of Yan, Shu, and Wu is stronger. Liao Kingdom may not have the strength to fight."

Feng Ziying said: "The Liao Kingdom only engages in the looting of green forests, why is it able to enter and fight?"

Liu Xiaoqi said: "The Three Kingdoms of Yan, Shu, and Wu are all attacking the places where the land is big, the people are few, and the country is poor. The Liao Kingdom concentrates on plundering the most affluent places in the world except for me outside the court, and the least short of money. And it is adjacent to Russia. That country It’s so good to be born, just when the young foolish king is ruining the government. When he ruins the Liao Kingdom’s heir, the national power will probably be as good as a piece of paper. Now, the Liao King can just prepare money and food for his son.”

Feng Ziying was stunned: "Liao country is too small, but Russia is so big."

Liu Xiaoqi said: "Isn't the Yuan Dynasty a small country at the beginning?"

Feng Ziying stroked her palms: "If it wasn't for the reminder from Master Qi, I wouldn't have thought of this section."

Liu Xiaoqi smiled and said: "Master Feng is used to being an official, we people in the green forest often use small things to make big gains."

Feng Ziying raised his eyes to look at him, and suddenly asked: "Who is the knight-errant who has been rampant in Beijing for more than half a year, Lord Qi?"

Liu Xiaoqi said: "To be honest, I have personally inspected many of their dead bodies." Feng Ziying waited with a smile.Liu Xiaoqi frowned, "This shop doesn't provide free news."

Feng Ziying was startled, then laughed loudly: "The money matter is easy to discuss."

The special envoy of King Chu coughed twice: "Master Qi, we haven't finished our business yet."

Liu Xiaoqi said: "My lord, there is a first-come first-come-first-served basis for everything. Mr. Feng came first, and you came later."

Feng Ziying said: "It's okay, I'm free today, let him give way." The special envoy of the King of Chu smiled wryly and cupped his hands.Feng Ziying stood up and went out for a stroll.

Liu Xiaoqi said: "At this moment, I really don't know where the King of Chu is, I only know that he is still hiding in the territory of Chu State. The money for saving the Queen Mother of Chu State will be counted in the King of Chu's own account."

The special envoy sighed: "Today, it doesn't matter who gets the money."

"It doesn't matter?" Liu Xiaoqi said, "If he has no money, how can he save the queen mother with his own ability? If the queen mother is imprisoned, his younger brother will not be able to come to where he is now, right? I'm afraid even the "Chu State" ’ This title has to be taken away. Now it has an orthodox title.”

The special envoy shook his head for a long time and asked, "How about I just buy news from Lord Qi?"

Liu Xiaoqi said: "I really don't know. My lord, it's the rule of our business to keep clients' secrets. Just think about it, besides you, maybe how many people are looking for the King of Chu now."

The special envoy said: "It's useless for others to find it. Will the blame man return to Beijing?"

Liu Xiaoqi said: "I'm going back to Beijing in a few days. The King of Chu will come back after he formally gets married with his woman."

The special envoy was taken aback: "Married?"

Liu Xiaoqi nodded: "The one who eloped with him is going to be a serious wife now. You King Chu really has a conscience, and you specially left a letter for the other little wives, asking your queen mother to let them go."

The special envoy smiled wryly and said, "I knew that..." He shook his head immediately, "If he married Empress Xiao as his concubine, he would not be able to secure the throne."

Liu Xiaoqi said: "Why bother to come here, it's not the material to be a master, it's not good to go to other places to be carefree and be a rich and idle person."

The special envoy snorted, "Comfortable? He can't carry it on his shoulders and hands, how much money can he get away with?"

Liu Xiaoqi spread her hands and said, "This small shop is out of control."

As soon as the words fell, someone shouted outside: "Qiye Qiye! Are you in the shop?"

Liu Xiaoqi said angrily, "What are you yelling about? Is your voice justified?"

The man shouted: "There is business to do, why don't you be more hospitable? Believe it or not, I'll go find another place?"

Then I heard Feng Ziying say outside: "Conger? What business are you looking for Yin Qiye?"

"Huh? What a coincidence, Brother Feng, you're here too? Hey, your shop is too far away, the place in front of the door is too small, and the horses are not easy to tie. Is your business so good today? There are so many horses."

Liu Xiaoqi casually took an abacus from the desk, fiddled with a few beads and said, "If you don't like having no place to tie your horse, go outside for a walk. Although the shop is small, the business is very good, and it's not your turn yet."

Seeing Feng Ziying and Jia Cong walking in side by side, Jia Cong said: "Isn't it for your own good? Since the business is getting bigger, why not open the shop to Zhuque Street, that would be glamorous." Feng Ziying was full of laughter .He asked again, "How long are you going to talk?"

Liu Xiaoqi said: "It's over. Mr. Feng came first."

Jia Cong said: "His business is mostly confidential and long-winded. Mine is fast." Nai hurriedly said, "I don't know if Qi Ye can help me find the king of Chu who escaped from marriage?"

The special envoy of the king of Chu gave him a sideways glance: "What does Mr. Jia want from him?"

Jia Cong said with a smile: "Isn't he not a prince? I wonder if he has a way to make a living? I heard that both he and his concubine are very talented in literature. Please trouble Qiye to be a middleman. Ask him if he is willing to talk to our Zhonghua Bookstore. To do business, to be our signed author? He is such an infatuated man who loves beauty but not country. It is not known how many idiotic men and women envy him the most. He is a natural born star! He and his Ai Ji's poems and articles are as good as they are written. It's easy to sell. Even if it's not very good, at worst, we can find someone to help them polish up." He talked for a long time like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, and everyone who listened was stunned.Another slap, "It's a pity that his concubine who didn't pay homage seems to be from a military general, and probably can't write poems and articles. It would be great if she could do it too. The poems and articles of the three of them will be sold together! Oops, don't you think so?" It is difficult to cause fans to tear up. Then hang the sales rankings of these three at the door of each bookstore and let fans speculate on the sales! We just need to sit and count the money."

Although Feng Ziying didn't fully understand every word he said, she roughly understood its meaning and couldn't help laughing out loud.Liu Xiaoqi also laughed and said: "Even if the concubine himself doesn't know how to do it herself, Mr. Jia can ask someone to write it for her, as long as it is in her name. In the future, she will share some of the book selling money with her."

Jia Cong applauded: "Good strategy! Yin Qiye is indeed a businessman!"

The special envoy of the king of Chu had been listening to them discussing for half a day, and could not help but feel sad and burst into tears.Jia Cong looked at him and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with this gentleman?"

Liu Xiaoqi said: "He is the loyal minister of the king of Chu who escaped marriage."

Jia Cong nodded and persuaded: "Sir, everything has two sides, it's better to think about the good. Li Yu is a romantic and talented man, and his life is hard to be the emperor. A man can't even decide which wife he wants to marry. Then the prince What's the point of doing it?"

The special envoy of the king of Chu sighed: "If he can endure for a while and try his best, he will not be able to hold the Chu country firmly in the future and marry whoever he wants, wouldn't it be good?"

Jia Cong said: "Let's talk about 20 years. The best 20 years of a person have to endure a wife he doesn't like, and the one he likes is bullied for some reason, and his temper will be spoiled. Besides, the one who didn't worship Isn't your concubine also very wronged?"

The special envoy said: "That empress is also very good! Maybe it will take two years for the prince to fall in love with her?"

Jia Cong shook his head: "My lord, you can see that you have never been in love. Two people really fell in love, not to say that they love that person the most in this life, but that no one else loves that person except that person. Being a master also requires Talented, this one obviously has no talent. It is more refreshing to cut through the mess so quickly than to spend years and years. Although Chu State was passed down from his father, he doesn't like it, so it would be good for his younger brother to take over? It's hard to guarantee that his younger brother is stronger than him."

The special envoy sighed: "What's the use of being stronger, the country is divided."

Jia Cong said: "Isn't it enough to go overseas and get some money?"

The special envoy glanced at him: "As expected, Mr. Jia only cares about motivating people to go abroad to fight."

Jia Cong shrugged and said, "I just said that casually. No one saw the benefits of going abroad earlier; now the whole country has seen the benefits. Naturally, those who are courageous will not let go of every piece of land on the chart. I don't worry about it anymore. Now." He suddenly put on a smiling face like a wolf grandmother, "My lord, since you are a loyal minister, do you want to help your lord be a manager and handle the book publishing for him?" Feng Ziying and Liu Xiaoqi covered their faces at the same time, and the special envoy His face was black and white and then purple, staring at Jia Cong.Jia Cong stood solemnly: "I am sincere!" The envoy shook his sleeves and left.Jia Cong was still behind him and said disappointedly: "Forcibly press the bull's head so you won't drink water..."

The special envoy of the king of Chu had just left the house, Liu Xiaoqi couldn't help laughing at his desk, Feng Ziying poked Jia Cong's finger; Jia Cong spread his hand.Feng Ziying asked, "You came here just for this?"

Jia Cong nodded, and said enthusiastically: "As soon as I got the letter, I saw piles of money beckoning to me. What does the publishing industry need most? Celebrity effect! People buy whatever celebrities write. If you can add romance The story of the king of Chu is even easier to sell. The king of Chu has both celebrities and love stories, and it is easy for all kinds of people to bring him in and become his fans. Seven, can you find him?"

Liu Xiaoqi said with a smile: "We are the only ones who can find it. It's just..." Liu Xiaoqi looked up at Jia Cong, "He may not be willing to see you."

Jia Cong said: "I've thought about this possibility. Are you doing business with middlemen?"

"As long as it doesn't break the law, our bureau will do all kinds of business." Liu Xiaoqi said, "Mr. Jia will come back in a few days to ask for information." Jia Cong stretched out his hand, and Liu Xiaoqi gave him a high five.Feng Ziying couldn't help but want to laugh.

After Jia Cong left, Liu Xiaoqi turned around and went inside to find a booklet, saying: "This is the clue I got from the corpses killed by many rangers." He held out his hand to Feng Ziying.

Feng Ziying knew that this was a price negotiation, so she quickly reached out to shake hands with him, and said, "Master Qi has prepared this?"

Liu Xiaoqi said with a sad face: "At first I thought Master Zhao Cheng would come to buy it, but he didn't come; I also expected Master Feng to come to buy it, and you will only come when it comes. I almost thought that it would not be sold."

Feng Ziying smiled and said, "Since it's ballast, can I get a discount?"

"Of course not." Liu Xiaoqi took a deep look at him, and said slowly, "Master Feng, you won't suffer a loss if you buy this business, and you won't be fooled if you buy it."
