"The rain breaks the heart, the wind sheds tears..."
"Lingering dreams, long-lasting love..."
Xiaoxiao and Xiaoyue played flying chess while singing songs that Tang Ningxin taught them. Both girls had standard luoli accents. Although their voices were immature and their breaths were immature, their intonations were cheerful and full of energy.
When people listen to it, it will be sweet to their hearts.
King Run stood beside them. He was now Xiaoyue's follower, because she could not only write on white paper, but also cook delicious dishes, most of which he had never eaten.
Tangning had already seen Fang Xiaoyue's talent in cooking. Surprisingly, Prince Run seemed to have this talent as well.
The Fang family has foodie genes, Tang Ning is sure of this, both Fang Xinyue and King Run have demonstrated this very well.
I don't know if there is a gene that determines whether the food is delicious or not. Tang Ning doubts that the Fang family also has this gene.
Fang Xiaoyue transferred her pursuit of food to cooking skills very well.
Fang Xiaoyue didn't have any friends in the capital, and neither did Xiaoxiao, so they became very good friends.
The two girls were similar in age and quickly became familiar with each other. Although Xiaoxiao was two years older than her, it seemed that Fang Xiaoyue was the older sister. Even the old beggar prepared medicinal meals for her every day. These days,
She has never been hungry again, and her nutrition can keep up, but her body has been weak for a long time, and if she wants to change it, it cannot be done in a day or two.
King Run stood aside and watched for a while, then ran to Tang Ning and asked, "Sir, do you think there are really fairies in this world?"
Tang Ning raised her head and looked at Tang Yaojing, who was talking to Xiao Yi Xiaoru in the pavilion. He really couldn't answer the question asked by King Run.
If anything, he had never seen one in his two lifetimes, and the education he had received from childhood also told him that there were no fairies or fairies in this world.
If not, if you think about it carefully, Tang Ning is actually a goblin, a goblin different from Goblin Tang, let alone a vixen like Su Mei.
People often label things they cannot understand as demons and gods. From this point of view, Tangning fits this definition.
Zhao Yuan looked worried: "If a snake spirit that has been practiced for five hundred years can turn into a human form, then if there is a fairy around us, wouldn't we not know about it?"
"Fairies may not necessarily harm people." Tang Ning looked at him and said, "Aren't Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing good fairies? Maybe there are also fairies who want to marry you."
Zhao Yuan thought for a while and couldn't help but shuddered: "I don't want to marry a goblin. If I do, I will marry a fairy..."
King Run is a very strange child. Sometimes he shows wisdom that is inappropriate for his age, and sometimes the questions he asks are too stupid. His EQ and IQ obviously don't match up well.
Spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums each have their own merits. Goblins and fairies also have their own charms. Only children can make choices. Adults..., haha.
Although King Run is very good at flirting, in the end, he is still just a child.
…
The huge sales of "The Legend of White Snake" soon caused a wave of excitement in the capital.
Tang Ning originally thought that Rich Man Tang would just put a few simple advertisements on the last page of each volume, but he didn't expect that he would actually change the name of the medicine shop opened by the Tang family in the capital to "Baohe Tang", which is exactly what Xu Xian mentioned in the book.
The apprentice's pharmacy.
In addition, he also temporarily started a paper umbrella business, hired skilled craftsmen to draw illustrations of the Legend of the White Snake on the umbrellas, and sold these customized paper umbrellas directly at the door of the bookstore for five taels of silver each.
The price of the umbrella is more than ten times the price of a volume of "White Snake".
What's more important is that those young ladies are actually willing to spend five taels of silver to buy an umbrella!
No matter what he said, he was still Tang Yaojing's father. Tang Ning couldn't let the waiter drive him away, nor could he collect the stall occupancy fee. Unexpectedly, this was not the end. Tang Ning didn't stop him, but he actually got worse.
In addition to making umbrellas for The Legend of White Snake, Rich Man Tang also made round fans, earrings of the same style as Bai Suzhen, hairpins of the same style as Xiao Qing, and costumes for the two demons of Qing and Bai. He also made all the peripheral products that Tang Ning had not touched.
The profit from this was greater than the books they sold, and Tangning was jealous when she saw it.
When Tang Yaoyao walked past him, Tang Ning couldn't help but wave to her: "Yaoyao, come here."
Tang Yaoyao sat down opposite him and asked, "What's the matter?"
Tangning told her what she had just thought of one by one, and finally sighed and said, "If we do this business ourselves, we may make more money than simply selling books. We have suffered a big loss this time..."
"That's unreasonable!" Tang Yaoyao stood up angrily, "I'll go find him!"
Tang Ning also discovered in recent days that Tang Yaoyao is very suitable to be a housekeeper. When it comes to business and money, she never acts emotionally. She and her biological father also settled the accounts clearly and handed over the money to her. Tang Ning was very relieved.
In the past, when I didn't know her well enough, I actually thought she was a prodigal. Thinking about it, I really shouldn't have.
He didn't wait for Tang Yaoyao, but he waited for Tang Richman.
Rich Man Tang looked at him and said in a bad tone: "What kind of ecstasy soup did you give Yaoyao again?"
Tangning asked in surprise: "What kind of ecstasy soup should I drink?"
Rich Man Tang said angrily: "You didn't give me any ecstasy soup, but she will come here and ask me to share some of the profits from those businesses with you?"
"Uncle, calm down." Tang Ning poured him a cup of tea, sat down and said, "Emotions are feelings, business is business, White Snake and Green Snake, we both registered our copyrights at the Copyright Office of the Imperial College, and Yaoyao and I did not get the copyright."
With permission, you cannot use it for private commercial purposes.”
"Don't talk to me about copyright!" Rich Man Tang looked at him and said angrily: "Forget it if you rob my daughter, now you even want to rob my Tang family's business, are you still trying to take advantage of my Tang family's property?
"
Tangning slapped the table and said angrily: "Uncle, just forget about slandering me. How can you slander Yaoyao's innocence out of thin air!"
"Slander?" Rich Man Tang was even more angry than he was. "The huge foundation of our Tang family will be left to Yaoyao in the future. But now she has started a business with you. I asked her to come back and take care of the Tang family's business."
Even if they don’t agree, isn’t this robbery?”
Tangning thought for a while, looked at him, and said seriously: "Yaoyao is a person, not a thing, and she is not a puppet. She also has her own ideas. Although Uncle Tang, you are her father, you cannot arrange everything for her.
Besides, she is naturally strong. Haven't you seen that she doesn't want to rely on the Tang family, she wants to achieve something with her own efforts..."
Rich Man Tang narrowed his eyes and looked at him and said, "You know her quite well..."
Tang Ning said modestly, "I generally understand."
"Everyone knows that she likes to drool when she sleeps?"
"..."
When the rich man of Tang Dynasty came, he was very aggressive and looked like he was going to attack the enemy. When he left, he seemed to be in a much better mood.
Rich Man Tang, who was not easy to deal with, was dealt with by him. Looking at Tang Yaoyao walking in from the outside, Tang Ning said proudly: "How is it?"
Tang Yaoyao hid the smile on her lips, spat secretly, looked at him and said, "You are nothing!"
He just said so many things for her, but she only remembered "it's not a thing". Women's focus is always strange, and Tang Ning didn't bother to argue with her.
He made an appointment with Xiao Jue and the others for dinner in the evening, and the place was chosen to be Tiantianju. Thinking about it carefully, he had never seen Su Mei again since his wedding.
The business of the Tangrenzhai branch is booming, and the first dividend has been paid to them, followed by dividends once a month. Within a few months, their principal will be returned.
Several people entered Tiantianju. Xiao Jue looked at him with a strange smile on his face and asked, "Aren't you going to see Miss Su?"
Liu Jun and others immediately started making noises, with smiles on their faces that both you and I understand.
"Don't laugh so obscenely..." Tangning looked at them and said, "Miss Su and I are just friends, pure friends..."
Xiao Jue shook his head and said, "Even if we are just friends, we should say hello when we come, right?"
What he said was quite right. Tang Ning walked to the door of Su Mei's courtyard and knocked on the door.
After a while, a head poked out of the door.
It's the maid named Xiao Tao.
"Ah!" Xiao Tao shouted when she saw him, "Miss, Miss, he's here again!"
Su Mei walked out of the room, her face looking a little bad. It seemed that she hadn't had a good rest these days.
When Tangning saw the way she looked at her, she couldn't help but feel a chill running down her back.
At this moment, Su Mei looked like a fox that had found its prey.
Tangning said, "I..."
"Don't talk." Su Mei walked up to him and said, "Sleep with me for a while."
The look in her eyes made Tang Ning feel a little guilty. She took a few steps back and said hurriedly, "I have something else to do and will come see you later..."
Su Mei reached out and touched his neck, then hugged him up, looked at Xiao Jue and others who were standing outside the door, and said: "I have something to discuss with him. You can eat whatever you want today, and it's all mine."
of……"
The courtyard door closed with a bang, Xiao Jue's body trembled and he came back to his senses.
Liu Jun shook his head and said: "Sure enough, this fairy also falls into the mortal world sometimes."
Gu Bai looked envious, covering his chest and murmuring: "I feel a little uncomfortable, please let me slow down."
Xiao Jue looked at the closed door. It's not like he didn't hear what Su Mei said just now. He didn't have anything to talk about. He clearly wanted to sleep!
What kind of simple friends? They are also simple friends. Why don't you see him sleeping with you?
