Xie Yan and Wen Heng had just gone upstairs for a while when they suddenly heard Fu Zhu say that there was a strange girl outside the gate who wanted to see him.

"Is it Erya?" Xie Yan remembered that he asked Yunliu to pass the news to him through Erya after getting the news from Xiefanglou.

"It's not Miss Miao Erya." Fuzhu shook her head, because of Wen Yanhui, she had met Miao Erya several times.

"Which other girls do you know?" Wen Heng posted from behind, with a subtle tone.

Xie Yan patted him from behind, "Fuzhu, you really don't know who she is?"

"I don't know her. She's a teenage girl dressed in ordinary clothes. She's thin and inconspicuous. She told the concierge that you left something during the day, and a woman called Mrs. Hua asked her to bring it to you."

Xie Yan was sure that she hadn't missed anything during the day, but when she heard the word Hua Sao, she understood everything, that girl probably belonged to Xiefanglou.

It's just that why Xiefanglou didn't let Yunliu give him information through Miao Erya, but sent another person over alone?

"I remembered, I did leave a watch outside, let that girl come up directly." Xie Yan suppressed her doubts and said to Fuzhu.

Fu Zhu took a quick look at Wen Heng, then turned and left.

After she left, Xie Yan quickly told Wen Heng about Xiefang Tower, but still concealed what Xiang Yanlin had left.What he did was not because he didn't trust Wen Heng, but because he thought it was a big deal, and before Wen Heng went to Sichuan, he rashly told him that there was no benefit other than distraction.

"Sichuan is not a short distance from Hankou. It is the sphere of influence of the French. Fang Xunxuan and the Wen family can't control that far, and you have never been there. I ask Yunliu to help me find Mrs. Hua and the others. Ask for information about Sichuan, and hope they know something that will help you on your trip." Xie Yan explained.

While listening to Xie Yan, Wen Heng hugged him from behind, touched the top of his hair after Xie Yan finished speaking, and sighed softly: "I made you worry."

Xie Yan opened her mouth, and suddenly her nose felt a little sore, "Wen Heng, you will be fine, right?"

Wen Heng smiled, "Of course, I will come back to marry you."

Xie Yan elbowed him from behind, "Stop spoiling the atmosphere, I haven't agreed yet, and why didn't I marry you?"

"Then can you marry me?" Wen Heng followed the good advice.

"..."

Xie Yan's skills are not as good as others, and she was speechless for a while, thinking about how to answer, when she heard movement outside the bedroom door, she hurriedly pushed Wen Heng away.

"Mr. Xie, why is your face a little red?" Fuzhu asked in surprise after opening the door.

"Cough!" Xie Yan hid her embarrassment with a dry cough, "It's too hot in the room."

"Huh?" Fuzhu felt the temperature in the lower room, and felt a little self-doubt, "Then I'll ask the fire-burning servants to add less charcoal for you at night."

"You can figure it out, it's troublesome." Xie Yan responded casually, looking behind Fu Zhu.

A familiar thin girl was standing outside the door, wearing a smart bunt and braids behind her head, noticing Xie Yan's gaze, she pursed her lips and smiled.

"Sister lame?" Xie Yan was a little surprised, this person was really unexpected and reasonable.

"Mr. Xie." The lame girl walked into the house while saying hello, her movements were very neat, and she didn't see the limping appearance that she was walking in the Xiefang building before a little bit.

After Fuzhu brought her there, she tactfully withdrew, and now there were only Xie Yan, Wen Heng and Sister Lame left in the bedroom.

"Lame sister, why are you here? Aren't you afraid of being discovered? What did Mrs. Hua and the others tell you?"

"I sneaked out while it was dark. No one would pay attention to where a lame little fire-burning girl in Xiefang Building went. In the next few days, it's enough for Mrs. Hua to tell me that I'm sick." The lame girl laughed. .

Xie Yan heard the meaning in her words, "The next few days?"

"Mr. Xie, you don't know. My sister-in-law Hua and my dumb sister-in-law and I were all from Sichuan before. After our family suffered a disaster, we drifted all the way to Shanghai along the Yangtze River. We were rescued by Mr. Xiang, and settled in Hankou according to his wishes. Home."

Lame sister explained to Xie Yan: "Our home was originally in Chongqing where you asked about, and Mrs. Hua and Mrs. Mute still have some old people there. Although they can't help much, it's okay to ask for information to understand the situation. It's just that both of them are guarding the Xiefang Tower and can't leave, so they can only tell me the relevant things in detail, and let me help you."

"So that's how it is." Xie Yan was a little surprised, he never expected Mrs. Hua and the others to have such a relationship with Sichuan.

Although the crippled sister said that the people that Mrs. Hua and the others knew could not be of great help, but as local aborigines, those people must know a lot of secrets and rules that outsiders do not know, and they can help hide their whereabouts when necessary. For people in Sichuan who still have a black eye, it is like a blessing from God.

"So you want to go to Sichuan with us?" Xie Yan thought of Wen Heng who naturally understood, and asked the lame sister calmly.

"Sister-in-law Hua and sister-in-law asked me to go to Sichuan with you to help. I know that the Wen family should not make too much publicity on this trip, and they should not bring many people, so as not to be intercepted by thieves who know their whereabouts in advance. You don't have to worry about how to take me there, I will wait for you The boat has set off, and I will follow behind as a handyman, and we will contact you when we arrive in Sichuan."

There is nothing wrong with what the lame sister said, Wen Heng looked at Xie Yan, Xie Yan understood that the other party was asking how credible the lame sister was.

Xiefang Building is the place Xiang Yanlin chose to take care of his orphans after realizing the crisis. After Xiang Yanlin passed away for more than a year, Mrs. Hua and others still silently guarded the huge amount of money left by the other party, waiting for Xiang Yanlin who did not know when to come. As Yan Lin's heir, his devotion and loyalty can be seen.

Xie Yan thought for a while, then nodded to Wen Heng, Wen Heng immediately made a decision, "I will give you the place where we rest halfway and the tentative address after we arrive in Chongqing, and I will trouble you along the way."

"It's okay, we're just here for Mr. Xie." The lame girl politely returned the gift to Wen Heng, "By the way, it's not convenient for me to go back to Xiefang Tower tonight, can you help me find a place to live?" ? I’ll follow you tomorrow.”

Wen Heng nodded, "I'll ask Yan Lin to take you to live in the public house later."

……

After Wen Heng took the lame sister to explain the situation to Wen Jiulou and Mrs. Wen, he asked Yan Lin to take the lame sister to rest. Before leaving, he told Yan Lin to see what the lame sister was doing to help get ready, and not to treat others badly.

When Wen Heng packed everything up and returned to Xie Yan's room, Xie Yan had already taken a shower, and was sitting on the sofa in silk pajamas, quietly writing something.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, he raised his head from under the desk lamp, with the unknowing fog in his wet eyes.

"Come back so soon? Have you packed your things?"

"It's all good." Wen Heng stopped Xie Yan from getting up, and leaned on the table to half-circle him under him, "What are you writing?"

"I plan to start a publishing house by myself." Xie Yan leaned back naturally, and showed Wen Heng the proposal written by himself, "I have been relying on Wen Wei Po to publish things before, and it was okay when the demand was not much at first, and now the theater is open There are too many various articles to be published in the future, which is already a bit inconvenient.”

"Newspaper, weekly, monthly?" Wen Heng read Xie Yan's plan carefully.

"Yes, I plan to run three publications at once. The newspaper is the same as the newspapers on the market today, publishing social news and entertainment news, and besides my novels, I also accept novel submissions from other authors. If the other's novels are really good , and can also be bought and made into a play to be staged in the current theater."

Xie Yan has already realized that if he alone writes stories, it is impossible to build an IP kingdom in a short period of time, let alone create a trend that can affect the whole of China.

He should not only be a story writer, but also a role in leading the trend of thinking and creation.

By setting up a newspaper to provide a platform for creators, it is possible to receive high-quality manuscripts in a steady stream. When the time is right, he can also hold regular essay competitions on limited topics in the newspaper, allowing everyone to focus on writing and expressing their opinions to lead public opinion fad.

"As for the weekly and monthly magazines, the weekly magazine is a publication that is completely organized around the current theater, and it can also be counted as a theater journal. the audience's impressions."

On the one hand, the weekly magazine can promote the theater, and on the other hand, it can also increase the audience's stickiness to the theater. Due to the limitation of the venue, the current theater can only perform in Hankou, but the magazine of the current theater can be distributed to many surrounding places, waiting for a good mass base It is not impossible to open branches in other cities in the next few years.

"For the last monthly magazine, I plan to make a more serious publication." Xie Yan expressed her thoughts. A nation and an era not only need entertainment guidance, but also need serious enough voices.

"Recruiting professional and suitable editors, soliciting articles from scholars with thoughts and social status, and publishing domestic and foreign major events and opinions of different famous experts every month, so that the public has more opportunities to understand the era in which they live, understand who they are and what they should do. What to do, what to do, to know what is the source of all misfortunes... Only when enough people complete self-awareness can our era get better and better."

Wen Heng looked at Xie Yan's plan quietly, and he could already imagine the profound impact these three publications would have on Hankou and even this era.

Although he has been amazed countless times, every time the other party puts forward a new idea, Wen Heng will still be amazed. This may be the reason why he will never be able to take his mind off the person in his arms.

——You never know how many amazing things he still has.

Wen Heng lowered his head and asked Xie Yan: "Have you found an editor and a printing house for these newspapers and periodicals of yours?"

"A few people have been preliminarily finalized." Xie Yan said, "It's Ms. An's friends. I met them before when I went to the new school admissions invigilator. After receiving my invitation, they were very interested and readily agreed."

The people Xie Yan mentioned were Guan Cheng, Luo Dao, and Ding Hai who he met outside the new school that day.

Among them, Luo Dao is good at foreign languages, and has many foreign students who keep in touch with him, so he can be responsible for foreign current affairs; Guan Cheng is the principal of a new-style primary school, and has the greatest intersection with the literati circle, so it is perfect for him to be in charge of drafting matters; as for Ding Hai, the Although the talent is majored in mathematics, he has a rigorous thinking, a cheerful personality, and a strong ability to respond quickly. A role like him is also indispensable for the publishing house when it is first established.

What's more important is that these three people have been friends for many years. After accepting the affairs of the publishing house, they don't even need to run in, they can get started directly.

"Guan Cheng, Luo Dao and Ding Hai are responsible for the main affairs of the publishing house. Besides them, I will also hire some other staff. As for things like the printing factory, Mrs. Hong from Wen Wei Po has already agreed to introduce them for us. People like them With the help of veterans, the publishing house should be established soon."

"It's good that you know it in your heart. If you have any difficulties, don't tell me in time. Remember to ask your mother for help." Wen Heng caressed Xie Yan's face with some distress, "You are too busy these days, and you have lost weight."

"Understood." Xie Yan felt sweet in her heart, stretched her waist and twisted her body to wrap her arms around Wen Heng's neck, "Let's rest early, you have to get up early and go out tomorrow."

"Now? Rest?" Wen Heng asked while touching Xie Yan's waist.

Xie Yan's face turned hot, "Impossible! You have to go on a long journey tomorrow, so you must rest well."

Wen Heng was innocent, "I didn't say what I was going to do."

"..." Xie Yan gritted her teeth, on purpose, this person definitely did it on purpose!

Wen Heng chuckled a few times, put his lover in his arms on the bed, and fell asleep next to him, without doing anything else, quietly enjoying the last night before parting.

The stars twinkling outside the window seemed to be saying goodbye to the departing people.
