Chapter 547 If you laugh at me again, believe it or not, I will kill you socially now (please subscribe and vote)
At this moment, Master Xu is concentrating on splashing ink, using his concise and very experienced pen.
On that piece of white paper, curves were left one after another. Gradually, a charming woman with half-undressed clothes and an affectionate look appeared on the paper.
Master Xu held the pen in hand, took two steps back, tilted his head and looked at it carefully for a long time, and then stepped forward.
I am going to add a man with similar clothes next to this charming woman...
A familiar rhythmic knock on the door rang at this moment.
Master Xu sighed helplessly, put down his pen, and walked towards the layman.
I saw the shopkeeper walking into the courtyard, and the two people accompanying him were the two distinguished guests who made special requests last time.
A smile appeared on Master Xu's face and he quickly stepped forward and bowed. "It turns out they are Mr. Cheng and Mr. Li. They are so polite."
"I've met the master. I haven't been masked for several months, but the master is still in high spirits." Cheng Chubi chuckled and returned the salute to Master Xu.
"Hahaha, it's true that I and Mr. Li haven't seen each other for several months, but I and Mr. Cheng..."
Li Ke suddenly let out a series of wild coughs, interrupting Master Xu's polite words that he almost blurted out.
"Master Xu, actually Cheng and my brother came here today because they have an important matter and they want to discuss it with the master."
Cheng Chubi glanced at Li Ke, who looked very embarrassed, and said, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, this guy is really not a good guy, and he has a very obsessed hobby for informal art."
"Oh? Could it be that you two came together this time and have some special requests?"
Master Xu held his head high and chest confidently, stroking his long beard and asked with a smile.
As long as it's a human being and not an animal, it doesn't matter what special requirements you have.
Master Xu is confident that he will be able to do it with his decades of hard-working artistic skills.
"It can be considered a special request. Actually, our brothers would like to have a chat with you, Master Xu. Are you willing to transfer your printing shop?"
"Book printing shop?" The smile on Master Xu's face condensed. He looked at Li Ke and saw the two young masters nodding their heads up and down.
He forced a smile. "I'm really sorry, I don't quite understand..."
"Master Xu, the two of us have absolutely no other intentions. We just want to spend a lot of money to buy a ready-made printing shop."
"After searching all over Chang'an City, the only thing that suits my heart is your property, Master Xu."
Seeing the sincere look on the face of this handsome and prosperous Mr. Cheng, the smile on Master Xu's face finally subsided.
"Since the two young masters know that I have such a workshop, I must also know that it is an industry that I can make a living from."
"If I sell the printing house to you, what will I do for a living?"
Cheng Chubi pursed his lips, took a step forward, and said to Master Xu.
"Master, we will spend a sum of money that is enough to nourish your family."
"Haha... I'm sorry, I don't want to sell it. If you two have nothing else to do, please take it back.
Of course, if you two want to request a painting, I will naturally not refuse."
"..." Seeing Master Xu, whose face was getting more and more ugly, he began to order the guests to be kicked out. Cheng Chubi and Li Ke looked at each other.
"Master Xu, please wait for a moment. Let's discuss it." Cheng Chubi waved his hand and winked at Li Ke.
Master Xu watched in confusion as the two guys ran to a corner of the yard and started muttering furtively. What on earth do they want to do?
"What should I do? He's not willing to sell it?" Li Ke was a little helpless.
"If you're not willing to sell, then cooperate." Cheng Chubi rolled his eyes and thought of a good way, similar to the cooperative business model with Zhao Zhengyang and his son.
"...Brother, are you serious?" Li Ke was stunned and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"Brother Chu Bi, you have to think clearly. Although this Master Xu has outstanding talents, he still has a bad reputation..."
Cheng Chubi just laughed and glanced at Li Ke, His Highness the King of Wu, who had been friends with Master Xu for many years because of improper art.
"It doesn't matter if you have a bad reputation. Cheng will take care of this matter."
After hearing Cheng Chubi's words, Li Ke thought, "That's right. The old Cheng family has a bad reputation that makes everyone in the court tremble. Are they afraid of pouring two ladles of sewage on it?"
Seeing Li Ke raising his thumb towards him with a sincere expression on his face, Cheng Chubi raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
"Nonsense, if we help him and make him bigger and stronger, is he still unhappy?"
Li Ke almost burst into laughter.
"The problem is that if this kind of industry becomes bigger and stronger, there won't be that much consumption."
Cheng Chubi looked at this delinquent prince who was obsessed with illicit arts. This boy had very questionable moral character.
But forget it, just leave it to the great emperor to whip him with a big stick and scream. Mr. Cheng doesn't have the time to be Uncle Li's nanny.
"...I mean, he can run the informal business however he wants, but we can cooperate with him to build a serious printing shop."
"Is this okay?"
"What better way could you find skilled craftsmen?"
"Try then?"
"Okay, just give it a try." Cheng Chubi sniffed, no matter how hard he tried, he would definitely not die.
After waiting for a long time, I saw the two gentlemen winking and chattering.
Master Xu, who still thinks about continuing to quietly engage in artistic trauma, is really unhappy.
"Boy, what exactly do you want to do?"
Cheng Chubi strode up to Master Xu and went straight in with a serious expression.
"I'm going to cooperate with you. I'll pay to buy a stake in your printing shop, help you expand its scale, and then help me print things. How about that?"
Master Xu looked at this tall and majestic young man with a arrogant and unreasonable demeanor, his brows furrowed, and his tone revealed a hint of impatience.
"Why should I let you buy shares?"
Cheng Chubi chuckled, his sharp white teeth showing. "My surname is Cheng, and I am Cheng Chubi and Cheng Sanlang."
When Master Xu heard this self-introduction, he was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses.
"Cheng, are you Cheng Sanlang from Duke Lu's mansion? The Cheng Sanlang who has eaten the heart of a wolf and the lungs of a dog?"
Cheng Chubi looked at the frightened Master Xu in front of him and the suppressed squeaking sound coming from behind, and his whole body felt bad.
Damn it, you just can’t get over what you’ve experienced in this life, right?
Looking back at Li Ke fiercely, he saw that Li Ke had returned to a serious and serious expression.
Come on, let this bad prince go for now. If you dare to ridicule me again, believe it or not, I will let you die socially right now.
Presumably your father, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, will be happy to pick up the little whip.
