Carrying the rice paper with the four characters "Sanyu Bookstore" inscribed by Zhongli Daru, Jiang Han happily left Anxiang Academy.

Zhongli Daru's investment in his bookstore, coupled with this plaque, is enough to help his bookstore block countless open and covert attacks.

Coupled with "The Legend of Wu Song", he will definitely make a lot of money.

But Jiang Han was not complacent. He thought of Zhongli's seemingly unintentional words. The disputes in the court seemed to be very fierce now, and Ningguo Mansion might also be drawn into the whirlpool in the future.

Although he didn't know about any disputes in the court, he did have to make some preparations.

To start a bookstore business, you need to find a few trustworthy people, and you also need to strengthen your physical fitness and learn martial arts.

The former has to be done slowly and cannot be solved in an instant, while the latter also requires time to temper.

Also, his wedding to Miss Qin is on the 23rd of this month, so there are only about ten days left.

Just when Jiang Han was thinking about some things in the future, in Anxiang Academy, Zhongli Wuyou looked at Jiang Han's leaving figure and smiled: "What do you think of this kid?"

Gu Qingqiu said: "This kid... can not only speak glibly and flatter others, but he can also say that a great hero serves the country and the people, making it difficult for people to see his true face. It is indeed not simple!"

Zhongli Wuyou said: "How can he be a simple person after concealing his talent for more than ten years! If this person enters Li Mingsi, he can become a secret guard of Xuanzi in less than a year!"

Gu Qingqiu's expression remained unchanged, but Si Jian's expression changed slightly.

The Li Ming Division divided the Li Ming envoys into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang. The lowest yellow-character secret guard requires the eighth-grade blood refining realm, while the Xuan-character secret guard must at least reach the seventh-grade essence refining realm...

An ordinary yellow-character secret guard would have to train for at least three years before he could be promoted to Xuanzi. The teacher actually said that this person could become a Xuanzi secret guard in less than a year.

Gu Qingqiu said: "You want him to enter Li Mingsi? Well, you want him to become the secret agent buried in Ningguo Mansion?"

Only a few people in the world know that Li Mingsi was founded by Zhongli Wuyou, and Gu Qingqiu is one of the few people who knows his identity.

At that time, the Day Patrol Division and the Night Patrol Division were in fierce competition and criticized each other, so Zhongli Wuyou inherited the emperor's order and single-handedly created the Li Ming Division to check and balance the Day Patrol Division and the Night Patrol Division. Later, Zhongli Wuyou used a series of With his iron-blooded methods, Li Mingsi has been turned into a supervisory department that is now deeply feared by all officials!

Zhongli Wuyou said: "There is no need for supervision by the Ning Guo Mansion, but he will eventually be implicated by the Cheng Guo Mansion, and I don't want to treat him as a secret agent... This person is a talent and is worth cultivating. Guess what if he How long does it take to become a secret guard of Tianzi after entering Li Mingsi?"

Gu Qingqiu was shocked when he said these words, and Si Jian also frowned.

How long does it take to become a Tianzi secret guard?

Is this Jiang Han qualified to become a secret guard of Tianzi?

Which Tianzi secret guard is not a one-in-a-million talent?

Even though Li Mingsi's fierce reputation is now well-known in Kyoto and has become a being feared by many officials, Zhongli Wuyou only has a few Tianzi secret guards in his hands.

That young man named Jiang Han has low martial arts skills... no, he doesn't even have martial arts skills. How could he become a secret guard of Tianzi?

Gu Qingqiu said in a deep voice: "This person... do you think he has that qualification?"

Zhongli Wuyou smiled, but did not answer. He raised his sleeves and looked at the plum blossoms outside the window.

"It's a pity that you rejected my kindness. Otherwise, with his "Wu Song Biography", your Qingqiutang might be better than Yuting Shuxing."

Gu Qingqiu frowned and said calmly: "Is that book really that good?"

Zhongli Wuyou said: "Shall we make a bet? Once "The Legend of Wu Song" comes out, it will definitely sweep away all the books on ghosts and monsters published by Qingqiutang!"

However, Gu Qingqiu smiled faintly and said, "Oh, I'm really curious about what he wrote in that book that made you make such big claims! Okay, then I'll take a bet."

He didn't read the book, and Jiang Han took it with him when he left.

As a great scholar, he naturally couldn't bear to let Jiang Han leave the manuscript for him to read.

But how can a mere popular novel sweep through the books published by Qingqiutang? How can it shake the status of Qingqiutang in Dayu!

joke!

"If you lose, I want your Qingyun Sword that has been refined for decades." Zhongli Wuyou said leisurely.

"What if I win?"

"You can make any condition."

"Okay, let's bet!"

Gu Qingqiu nodded and said, there is a bet where there is a win but no loss, why not bet!

After a pause, Gu Qingqiu said seriously: "Did you find what you wanted to check when you came here this time?"

Zhongli Wuyou also put away the smile on his face and said: "How can it be so easy to find out the false accounts to fool the court! But in Yunmeng, the accounts involved are the most serious! I came to Yunmeng and have already Many people came to test my purpose."

Gu Qingqiu said: "The inventory of the Ministry of Household Affairs is short of money. Excluding military expenditures, six ministry expenditures, official salaries, disaster allocations, deficit balances... There are many determined officials involved. If you want to thoroughly investigate this case, you will naturally encounter many obstacles. .”

After a pause, Gu Qingqiu asked: "Are you related to Ning Guogong?"

Zhongli Wuyou shook his head: "This matter involves a lot, and Qin Zhong cannot do it with his courage! Moreover, Ning Guogong only has a false title and does not have that kind of ability."

Gu Qingqiu said: "If the case is found out and the person involved is a certain marquis, or the entire Jiangnan is involved, what will Li Mingsi do?"

Zhongli Wuyou's eyes were piercing and filled with murderous intent: "They embezzled money from the treasury and deceived the court by making false accounts. These worms should be killed!"

Gu Qingqiu looked out the window. The boss of Lian Li Ming Division took the initiative to investigate the fake account book case. This time, he might not be killing Jiangnan people!



Jiang Han didn't know about the bet between the two great scholars, nor did he know that Zhongli Wuyou was planning on him. After he got the calligraphy of Zhongli Wuyou, he found a shop to frame the calligraphy and made it. plaque.

When the plaque was hung up, the scholars who kept Yunmeng City gathered around the door of his shop.

The craftsmen hired by Butler Qin were very fast, and the decoration of the bookstore started quickly according to Jiang Han's requirements. Looking at the progress, Jiang Han estimated that it would be open in two days.

But at this time, a piece of bad news suddenly came.

That is, the popular novels he ordered were suddenly out of stock.

There were only one or two companies left that still had goods to sell to him.

Jiang Han didn't know that Yin Tingli was behind it, but he didn't care. The main thing he wanted to sell was "The Legend of Wu Song", and the popular novels he ordered were originally just to fill the scene.

Qin Zhong from the Literary Review Institute also greeted him, and "Wu Song Biography" was reviewed as quickly as possible and the publication documents were obtained.

Jiang Han was overjoyed and immediately went to the printing shop with the publishing documents. He found an official from the printing shop, handed in the documents, and printed 30,000 copies first.
