Chapter 24 No longer in the brothel business

Shen Qingjia brought Mr. Luo into a teahouse that was convenient for discussing matters and discussed cooperation in detail.

She carefully read through several chapters of the painting book written by Mr. Luo and found some shortcomings in it.

"The beginning of your story is too complicated. Even if the writing is excellent, people who like to read storybooks won't want to continue reading until they see the beginning."

When Mr. Luo was pointed out the shortcomings of his script, he nodded, "That's the reason. I actually changed a lot. It's just that the bookstore owner is no longer willing to cooperate. I don't know what the cooperation meant by the young lady? She is willing to buy my book." ?"

"No!" Shen Qingjia shook his head and said, "I have a story in my mind, but I can't write it well, so I want you to write it for me. If you can write it well, you can pay whatever you want."

"I wonder what story you want to write, Miss?"

"It's a bizarre story. This is a concept I wrote in advance. You can try it out if you can."

Shen Qingjia handed over the story and character ideas he had written to Mr. Luo.

Mr. Luo simply read it and couldn't help but feel happy: "Miss, your story is indeed bizarre, but it is also really interesting. This is just an idea, so I was interested to know the follow-up. If I write it out, I will definitely It can be a big seller!”

"So this is the cooperation I want to discuss with Mr. Luo. When will you be able to write a chapter at the earliest?"

Mr. Luo thought for a while and said, "Miss asked me to write this story. Why is it used?"

Shen Qingjia said directly: "I want people to perform it on stage for everyone to watch."

Mr. Luo nodded to express his understanding and said to Shen Qingjia: "According to the idea written by the young lady, I can write a chapter in three days."

Shen Qingjia nodded with satisfaction: "Three days from now, we will still be in this teahouse. I will wait for Mr. Luo."

"Of course it's not a problem, it's just... I have a request."

Mr. Luo looked a little embarrassed.

"Sir, please speak."

"Miss, can you pay me ten dollars first?"

Mr. Luo was also a little embarrassed, and was afraid that the lady would not agree, so he quickly said: "I have an urgent need, and I don't mean to extort the lady's money."

But Shen Qingjia agreed readily and said: "Okay, tomorrow we will stay in this tea house and this room, I will ask someone to bring it to you."

Ten guan of money is not a small amount, but this young lady agreed without blinking an eye, which is really extraordinarily generous.

Mr. Luo is not a greedy person, and he will not talk to the lion just because the young lady is rich. He also told the young lady in front of him all the details of his net worth: "Thank you very much, young lady. My surname is Luo Mingyuan, and I live in Shili." House No. 230 in Hutong is currently on duty at Dali Temple."

Shen Qingjia couldn't help but be surprised: "Are you still an official?"

Luo Mingyuan smiled sheepishly and said, "It's just a casual job in Dali Temple, with no real power."

Shen Qingjia asked again: "Why do you still write storybooks to make a living when you are an official? Is your salary too small?"

"It's not too little, but it's not too much either." Luo Mingyuan replied seriously to her words: "Writing storybooks is just a small hobby in daily life. I don't expect to write anything famous. I just write casually. It's just that these days I ran into some minor trouble, so I wanted to change some money for emergency use.”

Although they had just met, Shen Qingjia had a good impression of Luo Mingyuan. He was an honest person and could be trusted.

"Since it's urgent, I'll have someone deliver the money to your home later."

Luo Mingyuan's face showed great gratitude: "Miss has already helped me a lot. If I dare to bother Miss, I will just follow you to pick it up myself."

"I haven't returned home yet. You can go home for the time being. I will definitely ask someone to send the money to your home."

Shen Qingjia has other things to do. Now that he's out, he can do them all at once, saving him procrastination.

Luo Mingyuan nodded: "Miss, you don't need to guarantee me. I believe in you."

After all, Luo Mingyuan was in the officialdom and had some ability to recognize people. The young lady in front of him didn't seem to be telling lies.

……

After finishing the story book, Shen Qingjia went to Cuiyan Tower again.

The girls in Cuiyan Tower have not been open for half a month, and they are all very relaxed and happy.

Mother He saw Shen Qingjia coming and greeted her with a smile: "My boss is here, please come quickly."

Shen Qingjia didn't go upstairs. He sat down directly in a private room on the first floor and talked to Mother He: "Mom, I came here to tell you something."

Mother He ordered people to serve tea, and listened carefully to Shen Qingjia's words: "Just tell me, my boss."

"I plan to renovate this building. I need a large stage on the first floor for daily performances, and all of these private rooms must be able to see the stage."

Shen Qingjia pointed to the middle of the first floor.

Mother He took a look and nodded: "This is not difficult, I will just let the craftsmen change it."

Shen Qingjia added: "One more thing, our place will no longer be in the business of picking up clients from brothels."

"Ah? What kind of business do we do?" Mother He was shocked. She had been in the brothel business for most of her life, and she was very good at it, but she had never done any other business!

Can this be done?

Mother He became serious and said to Shen Qingjia: "My boss, please think carefully. This street is full of brothels. Who would come here? If we do other businesses, the business will definitely not be good!"

Shen Qingjia couldn't help but nodded and said, "You can make sense."

This was indeed not considered well. The brothel was converted into a theater. This place was indeed not very good.

It's just that this building has been bought, so it can't be sold again, right?

She bought this building at a high price, and if she sells it, she will lose even more.

She didn't think about these things before if she didn't lack money, but now that she wants to learn how to do business, she can't lose money randomly, otherwise she will go bankrupt sooner or later.

It can be seen that doing business is still a skill, and you need to learn more and do more.

Shen Qingjia sighed and said to Mother He: "You can change this building to what I just said for the time being, and we can discuss it later when problems arise."

Mother He also sighed: "Okay!"

Shen Qingjia continued to explain: "Also, tell the girls in the building about this, and all the deeds will be returned to them. If they are unwilling to stay, ask them to find another job. If they are willing to stay, let them find another job." Re-sign the work contract and tell them that I will never treat them badly."

"It's my boss, I will definitely tell you this, mom."

After the matter was settled, Shen Qingjia led his people back home.

Mother He summoned the girls and began to explain what Shen Qingjia had just explained.

Some girls asked in confusion: "Mom, what are we doing if we don't do the flesh business?"

"Don't worry! My boss said that if you are willing to stay, I will help you and give you a job. I will definitely not treat you badly."

"Really?"

Ru Niang was not there just now, and when she heard her boss coming, she hurried back immediately. However, when she came back, her boss had already left, so she felt a little lost and was feeling wilted.

Unexpectedly, after hearing what Mother He said, her eyes immediately lit up and she asked: "Mom? Are you telling the truth? Can you really be a good person?"

Mother He said: "What my boss said is certainly true."

"Great!"

Mother He continued: "These are your deeds. Take them all. Those who want to leave can pack their things and leave. Those who are willing to stay can stay."

Girls, you look at me and I look at you, they are all still a little unbelievable.

To be honest, whoever wants to do this flesh and blood business has no choice but to do so.

Seeing that they didn't dare to take it, Mother He took the deeds and gave them to them herself.

"You guys! You're lucky and you met a good person."

Mother He handed the life deeds to them one by one, waved her hand and said: "Okay, if you want to leave, just leave. If you want to stay, we will sign another work deed. It can be long or short."

"I want to stay."

Ru Niang took her body deed and immediately came to her senses, raised her hands and stood eagerly in front of Mother He.

"Okay, write it down."

"Then I'll stay too!"

"I want to go home……"

"..."

All the girls who had somewhere to go left, and those who had no place to go stayed behind and each signed a work contract.

But some girls are still a little worried: "Do you think such a good thing is really possible? The new owner won't ask us to do other...shameful things, right?"

Ru Niang is very happy and trusts the new owner very much. From time to time, she even persuades the remaining sisters: "Oh! The new owner is a good person. Believe me, he will definitely not be worse than us before."

"You do trust this boss."

"Of course I believe it!" Ru Niang smiled.

"I think you believe it, there must be someone else!"

Ru Niang became shy: "Sister Pinhong, stop laughing at me."

The girls were playing around and there was a burst of joy in the building.
