Datang: Empress mother-in-law sent Li Er to test me

Seeing Zhang Dun looking down and turning the pages of the book, Yang Changrou secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"I will provide you with the story behind this book, but it is written by you after all, so you have to understand in advance what is the core of the whole story."

Zhang Dun raised his head and asked, "What do you think is the core?"

"The core..." Yang Changrou said cautiously, "Is it the love between the master and the disciple?"

"wrong."

Zhang Dun shook his head and said solemnly: "It's ambiguous."

"Ah?" Yang Changrou was taken aback, ambiguous?It seems to be true... Every chapter of this book seems to describe how the master and the disciple get close...

"To put it a little deeper, love is the skin, and ambiguity is the bone."

Zhang Dun continued: "The story design, first, must focus on these two points."

"So, you have to think about it carefully."

Zhang Dun raised a finger and said seriously: "Also, you must work hard on the details. This detail will enhance the sense of substitution. The stronger the sense of substitution, the more people will feel like they are there, and the book will definitely become popular." .”

After speaking, Zhang Dun patiently explained the problem of writing.

Yang Changrou pricked up her ears and listened earnestly, with a faint idea of ​​how to write this book in her mind.

"Ping Kangbo, I'll give it a try first."

Yang Changrou thought for a while, and said, "If there is anything I don't understand, I will come to you again."

"Okay!" Zhang Dun nodded with a smile, then turned and left.

When Zhang Dun left, the maid whispered: "Little lady, Ping Kangbo really seems to be planning to teach you how to write books."

Yang Changrou raised her finger, tapped her little head, and said angrily, "What is it like? Isn't it obvious?"

The maid rubbed her head and said even more confused: "But it's because of this that I don't understand. Ping Kangbo redeemed you from Wanhua Building just to teach you how to write books? Is this what normal men should do? ?”

Yang Changrou was stunned for a moment before she understood the meaning of her words, her pretty face blushed, and she said in embarrassment, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

"No nonsense, I'm serious." The maid said with a serious face.

Yang Changrou stomped her feet and said, "You still say it! Don't say it!"

----

"Brother Zhang, you have a great time with Miss Yang, I haven't seen you down for so long."

Seeing Zhang Dun walking down the stairs, Hu Guang, who was standing at the counter, grinned and said.

Hu Quhe, who was standing beside him and was making a plan, paused in his hands, raised his head, and looked at Zhang Dun quietly.

Zhang Dun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "What are you thinking, I'm doing business."

"Huh?" Hu Guang opened his eyes wide and said, "Zheng? Shouldn't it be Yang? Oops!"

Seeing Hu Guang clutching his waist and grinning in pain, Hu Quhe withdrew his little hand in embarrassment, and said, "Daddy, if you keep talking nonsense, my daughter won't help you!"

"Yes!" Zhang Dun said with a smile.

Hu Quhe raised his head, snorted softly, put down the abacus in his hand, turned around and walked upstairs quickly.

"Brother Hu, what happened to her?"

Zhang Dun looked at Hu Quhe's back in wonder and asked.

Why do you feel that this female disciple is very dissatisfied with him?

"What do you say?"

While rubbing his waist, Hu Guang said angrily: "You said that you are a wife and hang out with women in brothels every day. Can Qu He be happy?"

Zhang Dun shook his head, and explained to her later that there are still things to do, looking at the shop opposite Zuixianlou, he said, "Brother Hu, let's go in and have a look."

Hu Guang nodded and followed him to the opposite side. Zhang Dun took out the key and opened the door.

It doesn't smell very good inside.

"This shop hasn't been opened for a long time, it needs to be released."

Hu Guang covered his nose, walked in with his sleeves waving, and said, "It's our first time visiting this shop."

After scanning for a week, Hu Guang said with emotion: "This shop is much bigger than the one in Zuixianlou. Look at the decoration, the one surnamed Wang must have spent a lot of money in the past!"

Zhang Dun scanned the surroundings and said, "Brother Hu, how did you find the person you were asked to find?"

Hu Guang smiled and said, "Are you still worried about my work? It's already done, and those people can start work at any time."

"The decorations here are all ready-made, and they can be used directly. At most, they can be opened by adding some household items."

After speaking, Hu Guang paused, and asked, "Brother Zhang, what do you plan to call this shop?"

Zhang Dun pondered: "Let's call it Chang'an Bookstore."

Chapter 349 Chang'an Bookstore, the first day of opening

Chang'an Bookstore?Hu Guang nodded slightly, "The name of this shop sounds good, it's impressive enough, and it's easy for people to remember."

"What about the book?"

He looked at the empty store and said, "Shall we buy some?"

"No need." Zhang Dun waved his hand, making money is secondary to running this bookstore by himself.

"We'll just sell one book."

"Ah?" Hu Guang looked at him in astonishment, "Just sell a book? Can you make money?"

Zhang Dun said with a smile: "For now, I haven't thought about making money directly. Let's make the reputation of our Chang'an Bookstore first."

"Okay!" Hu Guang nodded and said: "Listen to you, I will call someone, and let this store open within two days!"

Zhang Dun hummed, he can rest assured that Hu Guang is doing things, after all, his execution ability is very strong.

It's just that you can't let him do it alone, you have to plan for him.

Otherwise, once he does it alone, he will lose his pants.

In two days, a new plaque was hung on the shop opposite Zuixian Tower, with four big characters written by Zhang Dun himself on it - Chang'an Bookstore.

"Chang'an Bookstore? Is this going to open a bookshop?"

"The name of the store is fresh."

"Who drove it?"

"Who else could it be? Of course it's Ping Kangbo!"

"How did you know?"

"Haha, I'm a regular customer of Zuixianlou. May I know who opened it? Let me tell you, this shop is owned by Ping Kangbo. If it's not a bookstore opened by Ping Kangbo, who else could it be?"

Pedestrians who passed by saw the Chang'an Bookstore being renovated, and stopped curiously to discuss it.

The name of Pingkangbo Zhangdun has been spread all over Pingkangfang these days, and his affairs are even the talk of ordinary people after dinner.

At this moment, someone suddenly said: "I remember that Ping Kangbo redeemed Miss Yang a few days ago. At this time, Ping Kangbo opened a bookstore, is it for Miss Yang?"

As soon as the words fell, the surroundings were instantly silent, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, feeling that what the man said made sense.

Why did Ping Kangbo open a bookshop?

Combined with his redemption for Yang Changrou, it is very likely that he prepared it for Yang Changrou!

"I heard that Mrs. Yang is very beautiful, I wonder if it is true?"

"Needless to say, she is the number one clean-up lady in Wanhualou!"

"I don't believe it, I only believe seeing is believing!"

"Haha, why don't you just say that you want to wait for the opening of Chang'an Bookstore to see it, what a detour!"

The people standing next to him laughed, but more people had bright eyes, and they had the same thoughts as the person who spoke.

There are bookshops in every market in Chang'an City.

Especially in Pingkangfang, there are three bookstores.

At this moment, in an elegant room of a restaurant called "Sheng Ke Lou" in Pingkang Fang.

Three middle-aged men wearing Futou and clothes made of brocade satin sit behind small tables.

Two of them, middle-aged men in dark gowns, were talking and laughing happily.

Suddenly, I saw another person with a gloomy face drinking wine. The middle-aged man sitting on the far left was also the one who invited them to drink. He said in surprise:

"Brother Yang, what's the matter with you? Why are you looking sullen?"

The middle-aged man known as Brother Yang raised his head slowly, and said in a deep voice, "A bookstore is opened opposite the Zuixian Tower, do you think I can be happy?"

Another middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "Hey, isn't it just a bookstore? There are many bookstores in Chang'an City, and I haven't seen you like this."

The middle-aged man who opened his mouth first narrowed his eyes and said, "Wait... you said it's opposite the Zuixian Tower?"

Opposite Zuixian Building, it used to be Dingsheng Building.

Due to Ping Kangbo's reasons, Dingsheng Building closed down later, and that shop came under Ping Kangbo's name.

He was surprised: "The owner of that bookstore is Ping Kangbo?"

"Not bad." The middle-aged man surnamed Yang hummed, sighed and said:

"Brother Gu, Brother Chu, I heard that Ping Kangbo produced a book during the few months he went to Hedong Road, which is very popular."

"Besides, didn't Ping Kangbo redeem Yang Changrou from Wanhualou a few days ago? If he uses Yang Changrou's reputation...to sell books in Pingkangfang in the future, what else can we do?"

The middle-aged man surnamed Gu who invited the two of them frowned.

The middle-aged man surnamed Chu clicked his tongue and said, "Then what should we do? That Zhang Dun is Ping Kangbo, and those of us who have no fame or official status can't beat him."

The man surnamed Yang shook his head: "Is this a matter of fighting or not fighting? Five surnames and Qiwang are under his hands, but they haven't made any good money. The Patriarch of the Wang family in Taiyuan even compensated him with a good shop. If we mess with him Without him, I am afraid that there will be no place to stand in Chang'an City."

The man surnamed Chu said angrily: "Then we can't watch him shit and pee on our heads, but we don't do anything?"

The middle-aged man surnamed Gu suddenly said: "Let's see what Ping Kangbo can do."

He narrowed his eyes and said, "I always feel that Ping Kangbo's opening of a book shop is a bit unusual."

----

"Brother Zhang, don't sleep, get up and have a look!"

Early in the morning two days later, just as Zhang Dun woke up, Hu Guang knocked on the door loudly.

"coming!"

Zhang Dun put on his clothes, opened the door, and before he could speak, Hu Guang dragged him to the outside of Zuixian Building with an excited expression on his face.

"Brother Hu, why are you in such a hurry?" Zhang Dun glanced at him dumbfounded, and then shifted his gaze to the Chang'an Bookstore opposite the Zuixian Tower.

At this very moment, the door of Chang'an Bookstore with a plaque hanging on it was wide open.

Zhang Dun strode in, and the store floor was spotlessly clean.

There are bookshelves on both sides, and the bookshelves are already filled with printed books.

In front of each bookshelf, there is also a bench.

There is a circle in the middle of the store, and there are small tables inside.

"Brother Hu, it's yours!"

Zhang Dun was very satisfied, and gave Hu Guang a thumbs up. The decoration of the store was exactly the same as what he wanted.

"That's needless to say." Hu Guang laughed, and was very satisfied with the furnishings in Chang'an Bookstore, but when he saw that the books on the bookshelf were all with the same title, he felt a little regretful and said, "It's just that there is something different. Well, not many books are sold."

Not only are there not many, there is only one book!In his heart, Hu Guang complained.

The corners of Zhang Dun's mouth twitched slightly, "Books are not expensive, so don't close this door, it will open today."

"Success!" Hu Guang nodded, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Then do you want to promote it?"

Zhang Dun glanced at him, and said in a meaningful tone: "Didn't you already publicize it? When you greeted those diners these two days, didn't you tell them that the bookstore opposite Zuixianlou was opened by me? "

Hu Guang coughed lightly, and said, "What kind of propaganda is that? I mean, we have to beat the gongs and drums to make it more lively."

"It doesn't need to be like that, it will be lively."
