Chapter 121 Su Yueling Digs a Pit (Fourth Update)

Yuan Suijun went to several hotels, and it took half a day to inquire about them.

His storybook is indeed very popular, and some storytellers even tell the stories in restaurants and teahouses after buying it back.

Although in the eyes of many literati, this kind of strange novels are difficult to be elegant, but Yuan Suijun is not such a person.Seeing so many people like this story, as a creator, Yuan Suijun is quite happy.

In addition to "Legend of Su Yuan", the biggest excitement in the state capital is Nanzhifang's popular new drama "Loveless".Although Wu's chair tried every means to silence outsiders, there were so many people in the state capital, and the Wu family couldn't cover the sky with one hand. On the contrary, the more they suppressed, the more it spread outside.

Some rich merchants who were at odds with the Wu family even liked to invite Nanzhifang to sing this play, which also made the Wu family very low-key during this time and rarely went out.

No one knows that both "Legend of Su Yuan" and "The Loveless Man" were concocted by Yuan Suijun.

After inquiring about it, Yuan Suijun went to see the head of the Mo family again.His purpose is to ask Mo Lin to help find out where Hu Zhen is being held.

Hu Zhen is Wu Shu's nanny, and Wu Shu still dare not openly fight against the Wu family because she is worried about Hu Zhen's safety.

After Hu Zhen was rescued, Wu Shu didn't need to continue to fight with Wu Jiaxu.

The Mo family has made a lot of money with the white sugar recipes these days, and Yuan Suijun sent two new recipes, Mo Lin is very happy to help Yuan Suijun with this favor.He said: "I will tell you as soon as I have news."

After leaving Mo's house, Yuan Suijun took the manuscript to Qiu Yuxuan.

Seeing Yuan Suijun, the shopkeeper of Qiu Yuxuan smiled directly, "Young Master Yuan, I'm waiting for you." All started.And as a person with discerning eyes and discerning pearls, the shopkeeper also received a few compliments from the master, and there is hope that he will be transferred to the capital in the future.

So when the shopkeeper saw Yuan Suijun, he wished he could be more attentive.It is inconvenient for Huang Liangke, the owner of this script, to come forward, so naturally Yuan Suijun has the final say.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the shopkeeper asked, "I don't know how many times Mr. Huang has written in the past few months?"

When Yuan Suijun was at home, he wrote this in addition to Wen Shu. After a few months, he also wrote [-] chapters, which was enough to hand in the manuscript for half a year.

"Twenty times."

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, twenty times!Then you won't have to worry about the next six months.

The shopkeeper is very understanding of the world, and before Yuan Suijun opened his mouth, he said: "Mr. Huang's story has been widely loved. In the past few years, there is no one who can have so many crowds. So we thought, his finishing fee is also worth it." It's time to improve."

"Twenty taels of a thousand words, what do you think?"

The shopkeeper wanted to tie Huang Liangke up in their Qiu Yuxuan, fearing that other shops would poach him, so they would have no place to cry.It's a pity that they don't even know who Huang Liang Ke is, and can only communicate with him indirectly through Yuan Suijun.

Twenty taels of a thousand characters, Qiu Yuxuan is indeed very sincere.

But when Yuan Suijun thought of so many mouths at home, the pressure immediately came up.

He showed a smile like a spring breeze, and his tone was gentle, "My friend has his own ideas in this regard."

When the shopkeeper heard this, his heart was in a ball - could it be that Huang Liangke was not satisfied with the price?If it is not possible, they are also willing to give thirty taels.

Yuan Suijun said: "He wants to negotiate a new contract with you."

"What contract?"

Yuan Suijun's smile was as clear as a breeze in the forest, "What do you think of the step-by-step charging?"

Half an hour later, Yuan Suijun came out with a new contract.

According to the new contract, when the sales volume is less than [-], the finishing fee will be [-] characters and [-] taels.Between [-] and [-], it is twenty taels of a thousand characters, and when the sales exceed [-], it is thirty taels of a thousand characters.For sales of more than [-], it is fifty taels of a thousand characters.

Yuan Suijun also made a suggestion with the shopkeeper, saying that at that time, we can put up a big-character poster similar to "Congratulations to the sales of "Legend of Su Yuan I" breaking through [-] copies" to attract the attention of customers.After all, people have a herd mentality.

When seeing a story that is highly sought after, whether it is out of curiosity or to have a common topic with others, I will choose to buy a copy.

The reason why Yuan Suijun did this was because Qiu Yuxuan valued the popularity more than the money for the finishing fee, so they wished that the store would have a better reputation, so that they would not hide the sales volume for the little finishing fee.

After signing the contract, Yuan Suijun handed over the [-] chapters, nearly [-] words of manuscripts to the shopkeeper, and also received a basic manuscript fee of [-] taels.As for the others, the settlement will be made after the sales quantity of each volume comes out.

He lowered his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief. According to the current popularity of this story, the [-] words will bring him more than a thousand taels of income in the future, and the pressure on his body has been reduced.

Before waiting for news from the Mo family, he could stay in the state capital for a few more days to see if he could find two skilled embroiderers.

……

When Yuan Suijun returned home from the state capital, Wu Shu also received a letter from Wu Shilin.

The letter first praised Wu Shu's ability, saying that she was able to join Su Yueling and become a big maid, and she did a better job than he imagined, and urged her to get the white sugar recipe as soon as possible.

Then Wu Shilin began to cry for poverty, saying that the Wu family has been suppressed recently, and the business is not as good as before. They have been unable to make ends meet in the past few months, and the brothers and sisters in the family have all started to shrink their clothes and diet.

But Wu Shu endured humiliation and became a maid for the future of the Wu family, and he felt uncomfortable as a father, so he still squeezed out three thousand taels, hoping that Wu Shu would save money and spend every money wisely.

Wu Shu read the letter and read it to Su Yueling.

Su Yueling snorted from his nose, "It's only five thousand taels, but it's still discounted, only three thousand taels, it's too stingy."

Wu Shu said: "Because I haven't received any useful information for them yet, I'm reluctant to bleed."

Su Yueling was really unwilling to take a bite out of the Wu family's body.

Suddenly she remembered something, her eyes lit up, "Tell me, is the Wu family interested in spinning wheels?"

At present, the pedal spinning wheel is only known in Lushan Village.The people who got the spinning wheel were very shrewd, knowing that if everyone had this thing, the price of cotton and silk would definitely come down, so they didn't even tell their relatives, and even when they were spinning, they didn't let other people in the village watch.

As for the carpenter Lao He who owns the blueprints, he is now concentrating on making more spinning wheels, and will sell them at once after hoarding enough.In this way, you can sell more before other carpenters steal.

This means that as long as Su Yueling is willing, he can overcome the time difference and sell the drawings to the Wu family at a high price.She just needs to say hello to the few companies that own the weaving carts.

After the Wu family got the blueprint, they carefully used it on Zhuangzi like a treasure, but when they turned around, they found that the streets were full of spinning wheels, and it would be wonderful at that time.

 Su Yueling: You see, this pit is big and round, it's perfect for you to stay [kick the Wu family into it]
