Don't move, this child bride is not easy to mess with.
Chapter 137 Meeting Xie Chengan again in Fucheng
Zhou Shinian couldn't help but yelled: "Mom, stop talking! Do you know how much money we have lost?"
"Ah? How much was lost?"
"Perhaps I could earn nearly a thousand taels a month, but now I can only earn a few dozen taels, do you understand?"
Zhou's mother swayed: "You could have earned nearly a thousand taels?"
"No more. Now it's back to its original form, only a few dozen taels. No, it's not as good as before, because the popularity of Qingzhu Bookstore is so high that it also sells a lot of other goods. Now we can only watch his family make money, and we, are Throw it away!”
Qingzhu Bookstore and her own bookstore are old rivals, and Zhou's mother naturally knows that.
She slapped the table: "What a shame for Su Mulan, who wants to punish us like this? Can't we be partners even if we can't get married? But she behaves so recklessly, deliberately punishing us, and deliberately letting the Qingzhu Bookshop Ride on top of us."
The mother and son faced each other and fell into melancholy.
If they had never tasted the feeling of earning hundreds of taels of silver a month, they would not be so angry.
But after just tasting it twice, I really can’t stop.
"So what if the girl can make some money? Don't you always want to get married? Do you think that if you can make some money, you can reach a high level?"
Zhou's mother was still aggrieved.
She couldn't figure out why a girl who lost her father at a young age was so grand!
My home is not bad at all.
My son is good-looking, a scholar, young and promising, and his family is well established!
"Today, the shopkeeper Bai of Qingzhu Bookstore was waving his fan as he passed in front of Lao Huang and me, looking very strange."
Zhou Shinian felt uncomfortable when he thought of this.
Ever since he took over his own bookstore, he has been outperforming that bookstore.
Who knew there was still today?
Zhou's mother also turned pale with anger: "I remember that Lao Bai, now thirty-five, there is a tigress at home?"
"That's right. Rumors say he is henpecked."
Zhou Shinian also found it funny.
A great shopkeeper is actually henpecked.
Mother Zhou disdainfully said: "How can we not be henpecked? Isn't his shop thanks to the help of his father-in-law? Otherwise, how could he afford to open a shop and compete with our family? That tigress in his family is very strict. That's I work on time and report the slightest movement. I never dare to mess around outside or even listen to a piece of music."
The mother and son laughed for a while, and suddenly Zhou's mother became a little fierce: "Since Su is determined to leave us alone and let Lao Bai ride on our heads, then I can only give them a big gift."
Zhou Shinian looked over in surprise, and Zhou's mother began to chirp in a low voice.
The carriage drove on the official road, and the sound of horse hooves sounded crisply, intertwined with the dust on the road, and time seemed to pass extremely slowly.
Su Mulan went to Fucheng alone this time, and the carriage was already the best means of transportation. There were tea, snacks, and soft cushions on the carriage.
But she still felt very tired from riding in the carriage.
When she came to Fucheng again, Su Mulan stayed in the same inn as last time.
After thinking about it, he still avoided going to Xiangxiu Tower to send a message to Xie Chengan.
Although in modern times, there are many ways of getting along between men and women, in ancient times, we still had to be more cautious.
Business trips are really tiring!
Su Mulan ate, washed, and had a good sleep.
The next day, I still dressed up in men's clothing and went to the bookstore.
Shopkeeper He smiled and narrowed his eyes: "Miss Su, you have lived up to expectations. A total of [-] copies of the book were printed this time. The [-] copies of the third issue and the [-] copies of the first and second issues were sold out within two days. This also dissuaded the owner. He asked us to re-sign the contract and split it [-]-[-]."
Su Mulan was also very happy, this is the boss who knows how to behave!
Before the new book manuscript was handed in, Su Mulan received another 600 tael in balance.
The two parties happily signed a new contract, and Su Mulan handed over the remaining manuscripts.
"You can take care of the rest. You can divide it into several issues. I won't have to come to Fucheng to submit the manuscript."
Shopkeeper He was overjoyed: "Don't worry, Miss Su, we will make sure the market demand is well calculated and we won't mess around. Then we will send the money divided into Qingsong County by us."
"So much better."
After getting the manuscript, shopkeeper He directly made a down payment of 2000 taels of silver.
Although she can earn money quickly from selling this manuscript, Su Mulan doesn't plan to sell out all Mr. Jin Yong's books at once.
She also didn't want to cause competition with herself.
There is no other way. Having seen many modern hunger marketing methods, she naturally knows a thing or two.
She was secretly happy because she had a total of 8000 taels of silver in her hand.
In fact, she is already a rich woman!
Shopkeeper He was also a little worried: "Miss Su, you are a little girl who goes out with a huge sum of money, so you must be careful."
Su Mulan smiled and said: "Thank you for your trouble, shopkeeper, I will be careful. Besides, I will deposit it in the bank soon."
Shopkeeper He was relieved.
"Girl, come and let me know when you go back. I'll have someone escort you back, and I'll make sure to get you home safely."
Of course Su Mulan didn't refuse when she was offered a special car, she thanked her and went out.
"Mulan!"
Su Mulan looked up, oh, what a coincidence, it turned out to be Xie Chengan.
"It's really you!" Xie Chengan's face was full of surprise, but he was also angry, "Why didn't anyone let me know when you came?"
Some classmates were curious: "Is this your friend?"
Xie Chengan smiled heartily: "He is my distant cousin."
Fortunately, I was wearing men's clothing again. Su Mulan thought to herself.
Looking at Xie Chengan again, I saw that he seemed to have lost weight, but he was in good spirits and his eyes were shining.
He directly asked his classmates to leave first!
Su Mulan was a little embarrassed for him, but he himself had a silly smile on his face.
"Why didn't someone tell me? If it hadn't happened by chance, wouldn't it have just been missed?"
Seeing his classmates leaving, Xie Chengan's face darkened slightly and he was a little unhappy.
"I'm just here to hand in the manuscript, and I'm about to go back. Aren't you very busy studying?"
Somehow, Xie Chengan always felt that Su Mulan was alienating him.
He also became very polite when speaking.
He was a little panicked and pursed his lips: "I haven't gone back yet? Why don't I take you to visit the academy where I study? In the future, maybe Xiaobai will come to Fucheng to study, so it's a good idea to take a look first."
Su Mulan thought for a while and agreed.
Fortunately, they were wearing men's clothes, so the two of them looked like two scholars walking together.
Wouldn't it be more convenient if I traveled through time and became a man?
Su Mulan was thinking about this, and suddenly Xie Chengan asked: "Why are you distracted? What are you thinking about?"
"I was thinking that it would be convenient if I were a man..."
The words blurted out, and Su Mulan was also stunned.
Looking at Xie Chengan again, he was already stunned.
After a while, he sighed: "It is indeed much more convenient for men than for women. Women cannot take the imperial examinations or become officials. Even doing business will be criticized more by others."
"Ah? How much was lost?"
"Perhaps I could earn nearly a thousand taels a month, but now I can only earn a few dozen taels, do you understand?"
Zhou's mother swayed: "You could have earned nearly a thousand taels?"
