Chapter 73: Meeting the Best in Town



Chapter 73: Meeting the Best in Town

The man opened his mouth and looked at Qu Jingyao in front of him with some embarrassment. Should this girl split the profit 70% or 30%? Or is it really...

Seeing that the man did not answer, the old man muttered angrily:

"What's a grown man to do, just do what the little girl says."

As soon as he finished speaking, the man looked at the old man with wide eyes in surprise, sighing as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

"Miss, can you please be so kind? I need to make some money from my small bookshop, right? I need to find someone to copy this story."

Qu Jingyao raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment, then asked his younger brother beside him for his opinion.

Mo Lichen was very surprised. He didn't expect his sister to ask him. Looking at his sister's encouraging eyes, Mo Lichen coughed twice and bravely started talking to the man.

"You get what you pay for. I believe the boss has also seen the business opportunity here. Besides, if you buy one thing, you can sell it in a thousand ways. It's not a small amount for the boss to take up one third of the profits.

My sister also said that there are many more stories to come. She believes that if the boss can cooperate with us, it will definitely be a win-win situation. However, it doesn’t matter if the boss really feels that the profit is small.

Sister, this thing is so popular in any bookstore, but it will be a big hit in Yuzhou."

Qu Jingyao didn't expect that although Xiaochen was young, he was good at doing business. There was a gleam in her eyes and a slight curve at the corner of her lips.

"Hahaha...boy, you two are really good at doing business. I say Shuyu, just agree to it. This little guy is right. This deal won't lose money."

The old man liked the brother and sister in front of him very much. There was a light of tenacity and confidence in their eyes!

The man smiled helplessly and then agreed to the request of Qu Jingyao and his sister, splitting the profits 30% and 70%, but the stories they wrote could only be sold in his bookstore.

"That's no problem. Take a look at this contract I drafted. If you think it's okay, we can sign it. This will provide protection for both parties!"

The man took the deed she handed over with surprise. He didn't expect that she had prepared it so thoroughly.

After a moment, the man put down the wolf-hair brush in his hand, blew away the ink, and handed the deed back to Qu Jingyao, a copy.

"Okay! Then I wish us a happy cooperation." After Qu Jingyao finished speaking, the man also laughed, and the old man asked her with a smile when she would publish a new story?

"Well, I'll come back next time at the market. I guarantee you'll like the next story even more, old man!"

The old man was itching to learn more about Qu Jingyao's words and asked her if she could reveal it. She shook her head mysteriously.

"If I tell you now, it won't be a surprise. You can wait a couple of days. The story will be worth the wait!"

The old man looked at her mysterious little look, laughed out loud, and confirmed with her again and again, so what if he waited for two more days?

Before leaving, Qu Jingyao bought a few books and pens.

After leaving the bookstore, Mo Lichen happily pulled Qu Jingyao's arm and asked her if what he had just said was true.

"Of course you are right, you are right. If you really don't want to pursue a career in government, as long as you can pass the exam and become a scholar, I will promise to celebrate your birthday with you, okay?"

Mo Lichen didn't understand why he had to pass the exam to become a scholar. Qu Jingyao explained that even if he was doing business, he needed some knowledge, so that he would have more confidence when he went out to discuss business.

Bai Guo was also persuading Mo Lichen at this time, saying that it would be good for him to read and write books since he was still young, and he would be able to help his master in many ways in the future.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, sister, but if I don't pass the exam..."

Qu Jingyao looked at him and asked herself worriedly. She smiled and pinched his cheek. Whether they passed the exam or not, it would take them a year.

Mo Lichen was so happy that he almost jumped up when he heard his sister's promise.

Baiguo asked his master where he was going next?

"To the blacksmith shop."

Bai Guo's men paused, not understanding why their master was going there. But they didn't dare to ask, and drove the ox cart slowly towards the west street entrance.

From a distance, you can hear the sound of "ding ding dang dang" coming from the blacksmith shop.

When the apprentice in the shop saw the person coming, he hurried forward to ask what he needed.

"Do you have a dagger? A bow and arrow!"

The apprentice was stunned at first when he saw the pretty girl in front of him asking for a dagger and a bow and arrow. Then he saw the boy next to him nodded and smiled.

"Yes, the girls are all here, you can choose for yourself."

Qu Jingyao raised her eyebrows and motioned Baiguo to go and choose.

Bai Guo didn't expect that the master would give himself...

She smiled and nodded, then went forward to carefully choose. There were indeed two good daggers among them, but they were still slightly inferior to the one her master had given her before.

Finally, under the master's suggestion, she chose a bow and arrow. The master said that the other two daggers would be given to two young masters, and it just so happened that both of them knew kung fu.

"Thank you, sister. I will cherish it."

Mo Lichen blinked his eyes with joy and put the dagger in his arms like a treasure.

"It's for self-defense, but remember not to hurt innocent people."

Qu Jingyao warned him seriously.

After they left, they went to the butcher shop and the grocery store and bought some snacks for Xiaochen to fill his stomach.

"Baiguo, let's go to the pharmacy and get some more medicine. I'm afraid Xiaoyang's wound will leave a scar. Go ask if they have any tissue-growing ointment."

"Okay, master, sit tight."

As he spoke, Baiguo whipped the ox cart and slowly drove towards the pharmacy.

But as soon as they arrived at the shop, they saw Wu Lian crying and being supported by a maid into the pharmacy.

"My master is crying. Could it be that Master Hou... uh..." Bai Guo gestured at his neck.

Qu Jingyao raised a sarcastic smile at the corner of her lips, raised her eyebrows, and strode into the shop with her brother.

The medicine boy in front of the counter saw Qu Jingyao and hurried forward to greet her.

"Miss, it's you! Are you still buying medicinal herb seeds today?"

"Do you have any muscle-growing ointment for the medicine I'm picking up today?"

The medicine boy nodded and led the few people to another medicine cabinet, and took out a small porcelain jar from the drawer. Inside the small jar was the popular skin-growing ointment sold in the pharmacy.

"This is it, girl."

As she spoke, Qu Jingyao asked Baiguo to tell the medicine boy about the medicine he wanted. While waiting, Qu Jingyao glanced around the hall boredly, and she found that Wu Lian's crying came from the back hall.

She asked the medicine boy what happened next?

"Ahem! That Master Hou had his leg broken by a startled horse. I heard that he was injured... that is... that is..."

The medicine boy spoke in a low voice to Qu Jingyao and the others, but the latter part of the words was a little difficult to say to the two girls. Qu Jingyao and his servant also understood the meaning.

Mo Lichen blinked in confusion, still waiting for the medicine boy to speak, but he turned around and went to get the medicine.

He scratched his head, wondering what happened next. Qu Jingyao tapped his forehead and told him not to ask any questions.

Baiguo quickly paid the money, and when they were walking out of the shop, they bumped into Wu Lian and her servant who were running out from the back hall.

"Ouch, that blind man knocked down my wife." The little maid looked at Qu Jingyao and the others with a cunning look in her eyes.

Wu Lian was stabilized and looked at the person opposite with a pair of red and swollen eyes.

"You bitch? How dare you show up in town?"

"Why don't I dare show up? Did I do something that angered heaven and man, or did I dig up your ancestral grave? I don't dare show up. Does this Ruyang City belong to your Wu family?"

Qu Jingyao would never tolerate her. After a few words of criticism, Wu Lian's face turned pale.
