Chapter 74 Draw the sword in anger

A twelve or 3 years old boy, his body is far from mature. Wang Ning'an is very tall and his muscles have not yet been kept up. He can count a few ribs. He is not the noble young man who teases his maids and commits death in the dark at such a young age. In fact, there are only two old wives in the Wang family who help take care of the elderly’s daily life.

After returning from practicing martial arts, Wang Ning'an wanted to take a shower, then work hard and prepare for a rest.

But I knew there was one more person in the study room and screamed loudly.

"Dengtu! A stinking hooligan!"

"Please, this is my study, you are still a thief!" Wang Ning'an followed the candle light and saw the other party's face clearly. It was the little girl who came with Yang Jiumei, who seemed to be named Yang Xi.

Wang Ning'an knew Yang Huaiyu's disdain for the Wang family, but he was too lazy to know the knowledge of his ancestors, and he had no good opinion of his sister.

"Believe it or not, I'll call someone to catch the thief?"

Yang Xi was so scared that she sneaked into someone else's study in the middle of the night and was blocked by others. She was so embarrassed that she was so embarrassed that the little girl's face turned red in an instant, like a big apple, both ashamed and angry, tears rolling back and forth in her eyes, looking like a pear blossom with rain.

Wang Ning'an was also numb when he saw it, "Hey, you don't have any bad intentions, right? If it's okay, go back to your room quickly. I, I will pretend that I don't know."

Yang Xichi was stunned for a long time. Wang Ning'an wanted to call someone. The little girl suddenly jumped up, covered her face and ran away.

"I'm spoiled if I don't even say an apology!"

Wang Ning'an sat in front of the desk with anger. When he saw that his manuscript was very messy, he became even more angry. He ran to himself to act like a young lady, but I didn't have the heart to spoil you. Fortunately, there was nothing key in the study, otherwise the stinky girl would have to pay the price!

After sorting out for a while, Wang Ning'an continued to write and polish the novel.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was a hit, and did not bring him actual income, but it brought him a fame. Wang Ning'an felt that he had to strike while the iron was hot, which would make him famous, and the profit of publishing books was not small. Moreover, Wang Ning'an had deeper calculations.

In the future, the Wang family will develop towards the generals, but now the nobles and the military are inferior, and their voices are monopolized in the hands of literati. The generals are constantly being slandered and attacked, and there is no room for counterattack.

If you run the publishing industry and have a huge number of readers, you can use novels to instill some ideas, and even create newspapers in the future to sing flags and shout for the generals... Of course, that is all long-term plans.

For the time being, Wang Ning'an felt that the publishing industry in the Song Dynasty was considered to be developed, but it was incomparable to the Internet era.

In an environment where the whole nation creates and novels are like mountains, just cause some trouble for pig's feet, that is, "abuse the master", and will be criticized.

However, in the era of paper publishing, it is relatively difficult to obtain books. The more tragic it is, the more likely it is to shock people and leave a deeper impression. Don’t count too much, even those classic martial arts, even those who are not the most powerful figures in the end, are suicides, cuckolds, disabled, lonely, and masters and apprentices turn against each other... In short, it is tragic and miserable. Different eras need to have different works to cater to the readers’ mentality.

After thinking about it, Wang Ning'an chose three tragedies, including three beauties, Xi Shi, Yu Ji, and Yang Yuhuan. He wrote about Xi Shi being used by Fan Li and hanged himself. His beautiful face turned into food for fish and died. He wrote about Yu Ji's love was passionate and sincere, like a strange woman like fire. He sang and danced for Xiang Yu in Jiuli Mountain, Gaixia, and committed suicide by suicide; he wrote about Yang Yuhuan, who was traveling to the Li Tang royal family, committed to the elderly Li Longji, and said sweet words, saying that the loving couple had been born for generations. Under Mawei Slope, soldiers forced the palace, pear blossom trees, concubines hanged, and white petals fell on her clothes...

While polishing and modifying, Wang Ning'an practiced martial arts and also urged the production of nectar in Yaochi. Spring plowing is approaching, and the demand for sorghum has increased greatly. There must be a variety of sorghum...

He was busy, and he left behind the incident of Yang Xi running to the study. Yang Jiumei had been lingering for more than ten days, and Yang's gun had been almost done. She told Yang Huaiyu and Yang Xi that she would return to the capital in a few days.

Master Yang was naturally cheering. The girls in Fanlou are waiting for Master Yang to cherish you! Compared to brother, Yang Xi seems much more worried. She has not eaten well and has not had a good sleep these days. Her little face has been thinner, and her eyes are big, which is so pitiful.

She sat withered for a long time, finally gritted her teeth and arrived at the backyard of the Wang family again.

Wang Ning'an was still practicing drawing swords. Compared to the previous few days, his speed was significantly faster and his murderous aura was even stronger. Yang Xi was stunned and asked himself, if Wang Ning'an suddenly launched, she might not have avoided the fatal blow. She was such a powerful guy.

When the little girl was stunned, Wang Ning'an had already taken away his sword and came out of the backyard. When he happened to see the girl under the tree, he was stunned. What's going on with this girl? He didn't know any rules at all, why did he come to peek again? Could it be that she fell in love with her? It's impossible. She is several years older than herself? Does she like a sister-brother relationship?

Wang Ning'an felt chills, "Miss Yang, why are you here?"

With a questioning tone, Yang Xi was shocked and Wang Ning'an had already arrived in front of her.

"I, I..." The little girl lowered her head. The more anxious she was, the more she couldn't speak, and she was so anxious that she stamped her feet.

Wang Ning'an was a little embarrassed. Maybe she learned the Yang family's kung fu in vain. She felt unhappy and wanted to find it back. "Let me go back and let my father record a copy of the Wang family's martial arts. Don't worry, we won't take advantage of your family."

Wang Ning'an was about to leave, but the little girl was really anxious.

"No, I, I want, I want the manuscript of "The Biography of Xi Shi."

Wang Ning'an never expected that he was going to read the novel, but he didn't know what to say. Yang Xi mustered up the courage and ran to Wang Ning'an, with bright eyes full of seriousness.

"I, I peeked at your manuscript, sorry... But, you, you wrote so well, can you lend me a look, it only takes a few days! I promise not to break it, and I won't tell anyone!" After Yang Xi said that, he quickly closed his mouth, for fear that his heart would jump out. Apart from his family, she had not said so much to a strange man, and was asking for help, so she was inevitably nervous.

Wang Ning'an was stunned for a long time and suddenly started to laugh.

"So it's for this! What do I think is it!"

He said generously: "I happened to write three story books, but I was worried that no one would give me a long eye."

Yang Xi was flattered and followed Wang Ning'an and went to the study. Wang Ning'an praised all three books: "The Biography of Xi Shi", "Farewell My Concubine" and "The Palace of Eternal Life" in one breath.

Of course, you need to understand the market when selling books. The largest market in the Song Dynasty was in Bianjing. In recent years, there were definitely many novels on the market. According to Wang Ning'an, many well-known literati have written scripts to make money.

For example, Ouyang Xiu did it, of course they only started writing a script after they entered the court as officials. Naturally, they could not use their real names to avoid being impeached by censors. Perhaps the pseudonym was the origin of this time...

Wang Ning'an wanted to seek help from Ouyang Xiu, but these three books were obviously aimed at ordinary citizens, and of course, they also included girls in the deepest areas, which was more suitable for Yang Xi.

Sure enough, the little girl held three books and felt like she had a treasure. She returned to the room. She looked at it and cried and laughed for a while, and her tears kept falling. She was really made of water.

In a blink of an eye, another three days later, Yang Jiumei officially bid farewell and left.

"Mr. Gu, I, I won't walk anymore." Yang Xi mustered up the courage.

"I won't leave?" Yang Jiumei said in confusion.

"Why do you want to stay?"

"For, for... in short, I don't want to go back so soon."

The little girl's eyes were dazed, her fingers kept rubbing the corners of her clothes, looking uneasy, and she was embarrassed to say it! Oh, no, the little girl is already sixteen or seventeen, so she should find someone... Could it be her?

Yang Jiumei suddenly understood and said, "I want to go back and talk to her mother. You can stay in the Wang family, be as close as possible, it's great."

Yang Xi was overjoyed. She didn't hear the implicit meaning of Gu Tai. She just felt that it was the happiest thing to stay and read the novel, give suggestions, and modify them together.

But Yang Huaiyu stopped doing it. What do you mean? Could it be that I want to stay in Cangzhou?

"Mr. Gu, why should I stay in the Wang family?"

Yang Jiumei's face suddenly sank, "That's right, there are too many places worth learning from the Wang family. Stay here and gain your skills!"

"Wow!" Yang Huaiyu was about to explode. He drew out his sword, "Mr. Gu, I'll go and compete with Wang Ning'an now to see what skills he has to teach me?"
