Space at hand: Pick up a prince to farm

Chapter 1198 Trouble
Zhong Shuge's gambling game not only satisfied their sense of seeking excitement, but also made them feel noble instantly, so everyone accepted this rule at the moment.

Those with more money bet 100 taels, and those with less money bet a few less. They each placed a number that they felt was safe, and waited for the opening of the banker on the next day.

In just two days, Zhongshuge in Shangjing City has been known to many people. Of course, there are also many literati who despise it. They feel that Zhongshuge is insulting them, scholars, and actually writes the text. It's all used as a gambling game.

Some radical people even came outside Zhongshuge to debate with the people in Zhongshuge. However, they did not expect that these people in Zhongshuge were not the rude and useless people they thought. In the process of arguing with them, they did not benefit at all.

In the end, I could only persuade them with earnest words.

"Your name, Zhongshuge, is very good. I guess your boss is also a scholar, but why does he have anything to do with gambling? Where has the nobleness of scholars gone?"

The people in Zhongshuge actually sneered at such a statement, and immediately threw out a sentence, "Everything is inferior, but studying is the only one who is superior? Then why don't you study for a lifetime, but take the imperial examination? How noble are scholars? Why?"

"You say that studying is your top priority, so what about your daily eating, drinking, and diarrhea? You look down on businessmen who are full of copper odor, but why do you think of ways to make money? What's more, how can you support your studies without money? "

"We never think that studying and making money are in conflict, and we don't think what we are doing now is unacceptable. It is just a way to make a living."

The words of the people in Zhongshuge did not come from the mouth of one person. Almost everyone could give them a reason that was enough to make people speechless. Those unconvinced scholars could only point at them with trembling fingers.

"You... you are simply hopeless!"

But the scholars who left these words fled in a hurry. They didn't want to admit that what they said was true, but the fact was that they studied hard for the imperial examination in order to have a good future. The so-called books have their own truth. The golden house has Yan Ruyu in the book. This is their last dream.

It is difficult to move forward without money. This is the unchanging rule in the world.

They don't want to admit this, and they don't dare to admit it, so they can only run away.

Yang Shiyun was also among the crowd of onlookers. He watched the current situation in Zhongshuge the whole time, and his original resistance disappeared little by little. Whether it was what Cheng Sijie told him before or what he heard here now, for him It's a huge inspiration to say it all.

He also knows better the path he wants to take next.

Naturally, he must participate in the imperial examination, but before that, he will always do the job in front of him well. It is best if he can make money. If he can't make much money, at least he will pay the price of one hundred coppers per exam. It’s time to live a life where you don’t have to worry about anything.

He didn't know what happened next. After figuring it out, he went back and prepared to continue writing the following content.

He has already given the content of the second chapter before, and what he wants to write now is the third chapter and beyond.

After finishing writing and proofreading the third chapter, he actually started to wonder how long they had been sealed in that box.

I have to say that the owner behind Zhongshuge is really something. This kind of gambling can not only allow everyone to place bets, but also better arouse everyone's curiosity about this storybook. Even those who don't gamble, They will also start to look forward to when the next episode will come out.

In fact, in a sense, this can ensure that the bookstore is always making money. After all, the simple bet sizes in this gambling house are different. It is impossible for so many people to bet correctly. Even if there is a big odds, it is actually about the same. Can be leveled.He also began to look at Cheng Sijie with admiration because of this incident. He originally thought that the people who could become the number one scholar were those who immersed themselves in studying, but he didn't expect that he had such a good vision.

Although Cheng Sijie said that he was his friend, Yang Shiyun was not stupid and naturally knew that there was a part of Cheng Sijie in it.

Danyu still reported the situation to Lu Qingyi every day according to the previous pattern. Compared with the more than 200 taels of silver from yesterday's gambling, today's number will naturally be more impressive.

On the one hand, the number of people betting today has doubled, and on the other hand, the amount of bets this time is also larger.

"Miss, today we made 300 taels from betting, and the income from the sale of storybooks was 670 taels."

The size of the bet is chosen by themselves, as long as it does not exceed 100 taels, but the amount of the word book is fixed. For ten cents, more than 60 people can buy it.

This number has doubled compared to the day before.

This is still just the beginning. I believe everyone will be more and more interested in it in the future. After all, the development of the story will become more and more exciting.

What's more, Lu Qingyi actually has a trump card now. The storybook the princess gave her before will definitely set off a craze once it comes out.

But Lu Qingyi is not such a radical person. She likes to work steadily. They have to lay the current foundation and let Zhong Shuge have a complete foothold before they can use that book.

After all, there is only one such book. If you reach a peak at the beginning, it will be difficult to do it in the future. After all, after reaching the peak, no one else can surpass it. If nothing else, at least for their writers. It's a very big stimulus.

"Let's see how it goes when we open the village tomorrow."

After Zhongshuge became known, it actually brought another trouble to Lu Qingyi.

Her father, Lu Kunlin, still knew about it. After all, she used to use the shop given to her by her mother. After hearing someone talk about Zhongshuge, his father went to take a look, and he knew the location of the shop.

However, after returning home, Lu Kunlin did not directly ask Lu Qingyi, but first went to tell his wife about the matter.

Mrs. Lu knew better about the shop she gave her, and she knew her daughter somewhat well. She knew that she would not rent out a shop in such a good location and could only use it for herself.

That also proves that Zhongshuge is related to her. The only thing that is not sure now is how it is composed, so both husband and wife are hesitant about how to speak.

For Lu Kunlin, he was definitely against it, but after all, his daughter had grown up without him. If he took his words seriously, he would still be worried...
