My Lord, the princess doesn't want you anymore.

Gu Jia has run a casino for more than ten years, but this is the first time she has seen such a gambler.

Mei Xueer and her group of four just ate, drank and slept every day.

Everyone who comes to the casino aims to win money, but the purpose of these four people is to spend money.

They never hang out in the casino hall and just stay in their rooms.

"Boss, these four people are treating this place as an inn. Are they fugitives?" said Wan, the steward in charge of the daily affairs of the casino. "The capital has been in a state of panic recently. If they are really the accomplices of the deposed crown prince, please don't implicate us."

People who run casinos usually look fierce and ferocious, but Gu Jia is an exception.

This person is fair-skinned and looks gentle and elegant.

The most outrageous thing is that he was still waving a paper fan in the middle of winter.

A blooming Epiphyllum is painted on the fan.

He seemed to be trying hard to pretend to be an intellectual, but you would never have imagined that he was actually a gangster running a casino.

However, as soon as he opened his mouth, this elegant image was shattered into pieces in a second.

"Your father has a point. Damn, even you feel something is wrong. Why don't you go check it out and find out what the group is up to."

Deacon Wan had long been accustomed to the boss's authentic dialect accent, "How about we just kick him out?"

Gu Jia kicked Deacon Wan on the butt. "What the hell is this idea? I run a casino. If we just chase the customers away, why would the gamblers outside look at us? The casino business is not good, isn't it? Did your kid get hit on the head by a door when he was a child?"

"Yes, yes, yes, Boss, you are right." Deacon Wan said with an apologetic smile, "How about you go and take a look yourself. If you go, you will definitely be able to see the details at a glance."

"Don't try to flatter me, you bastard. I'm going to stand up for you and watch me." Gu Jia waved a paper fan and kicked Deacon Wan on the butt. Then she walked away cursing, waved the paper fan.

In the room, Mei Xueer was sitting at the table writing something. Without even raising her head, she asked Wen Jia, "You mean, the people who followed us have all withdrawn?"

Wen Jia nodded: Everyone has withdrawn, does that mean the prince has completely given up on the princess?

Mei Xueer was very happy - now she could really be happy.

Have fun, there's plenty of time.

Now, there is really nothing that can stop her yearning for freedom.

"After the prince's incident is over, I plan to open a clinic. I have to make money, right? Otherwise, we will all starve to death."

"A princess wants to open a clinic?" Wen Bing disagreed at first.

Mei Xueer put down her pen and glared, "I can't think of a solution. How about you and Wen Jia go to the streets to perform and earn money to support us?"

"I think it'll work!" Nanxing clapped his hands, "You two are good at martial arts, so performing is a way out for you. You can break rocks with your chest, or swallow swords and spit fire. If you can't even do that, singing and dancing will work. Wen Bing will perform the cart-driving show with a small whip, and Wen Jia will sing "The Little Donkey"..."

This picture is really too beautiful.

"Then, what about you?" Wen Jia stared at Nan Xing fiercely and asked word by word with gritted teeth.

It turns out that he is truly an all-round talent who can even enter the entertainment industry.

"I'm responsible for collecting the cash." Nanxing smiled from ear to ear.

"Check out the money, include me in the bill." Mei Xueer smiled lazily.

"It's already this time, and you can still laugh." Wen Bing snorted.

At this moment, there was a soft knock on the door.

Wen Bing opened the door a crack and was about to stick his head out to look when a middle-aged man with a fair and gentle appearance squeezed in.

To be precise, a foot squeezed in. "My name is Gu Jia, the owner of this casino. I have something to ask you guys."

Gu Jia finally squeezed in. He knew at a glance that the lame woman was the leader of the group, so he stepped forward and saluted, "Excuse me, young lady. May I ask if you think the gambling methods in the casino are meaningless? If there is anything that needs improvement, just tell us, we will work together to meet the needs of our customers."

Mei Xueer gathered the papers on the table, looked at the gangster in front of her who didn't look like a gangster, and stretched lazily, "It's quite boring, let's take a look first, it won't be too late to take action after seeing what happens."

"Yes, yes, yes. To be honest, I see that you are a gambling expert."

Uh... that’s not really the case.

Mei Xueer rolled her eyes and said, "Manager Gu, right? Come, sit down, let's talk."

Gu Jia didn't hesitate and sat down at the table, looking at the four people in front of her with a smile.

"I think the shopkeeper should own more than one casino, right?" Mei Xueer asked.

Gu Jia waved her folding fan, "To be honest, young lady, I have a few gambling houses in the capital..."

"Hey, I mean, other industries." Mei Xueer interrupted, "For example, theaters and so on."

Humph, on the second day after moving in, Wen Jia went to check on this person.

Do not check, I don’t know, I’m scared.

Although it is just the tip of the iceberg, based on the information we have found, this unsophisticated gangster boss can be among the top three on the Forbes Great Britain Rich List.

This man does all kinds of business, so it is very likely that he is the richest man in the Great Zhen Kingdom.

Mei Xueer would never tell the truth.

Gu Jia was stunned. "To be honest, young lady, I do own a theater and two teahouses, but the business is not that good."

"That's great... Uh, that's not what I meant. Of course I hope your business is booming!" Mei Xue'er suppressed her smile, "Manager Gu, if you trust me, I'll give you some ideas. But if we make any money, you and I have to split it in half."

Gu Jia: It turns out they didn’t come here to gamble, they came here to rob money.

His face suddenly turned bad, and he closed his folding fan, revealing his gangster nature. He no longer looked like a scholar. "If you are here to gamble, I welcome you. If you are here to mess things up, don't blame me for being rude! In this capital, Happy Casino may not be the most famous, but I have to take you guys seriously."

Mei Xueer smiled instead of getting angry, "Boss, it's like this. I have several ideas for making money, you should learn about them first, and when you think they are feasible, we can talk about money."

Gu Jia originally wanted to continue being angry, but after hearing what Mei Xueer said, she felt a little embarrassed.

Mei Xueer flipped through the pile of papers on the table and handed them over.

Wen Jia and Wen Bing were very curious. The princess had been writing something on the table these past two days and didn't allow them to look. It turned out that it was something prepared for the owner of the casino.

"What is it?" Gu Jia was also confused, but she still took it.

However, after taking the thick stack of papers and taking a look at it, he felt overwhelmed.

The paper is covered with scribbles that look like earthworms. Can you call these words?

Mei Xueer laughed awkwardly: "The key is the content, the content..."

This calligraphy is too difficult to write, and this is the best she can do.

Gu Jia then held his forehead and read through the pages line by line with difficulty, occasionally leaning over to ask "What's that word?" The more he read, the more excited he could not hide his face.

Mei Xueer drank her tea calmly until she had changed the teacup twice before Gu Jia raised her head.

The fierce look on his face before has turned into an admiring look, "It seems that it has not been finished yet? A few brave men who were forced to go to Hengshan..."

"It's Liangshan, not Hengshan..." Mei Xueer corrected.

"Rivals, Liangshan. What happened to them later?"

"Oh, this is just a small part of it. It's just the beginning. There's a lot more to come. I'll write it down to you slowly."

"And there's this monkey that's been trapped at the foot of the mountain for five hundred years. Is there really anyone who can save it?"

"The one who saved him, the next chapter is coming!"

"Also, the story of Painted Skin is so dark..."

"That's the desired effect. The scarier something is, the more people will listen and watch it."

"This story is short and fun, but what's the point? I mean, is it also a play?" Gu Jia pulled out two sheets of paper from a pile of papers.

"You mean 'Selling Crutch'? This is called a skit, it's just a script. Find me a few actors who can act, and I'll be in charge of the rehearsal." Mei Xueer smacked her lips, "As for the story about a man and a group of women, a monkey helping a monk fight various monsters, and the Liangshan heroes, they are all very long and suitable for storytelling. This skit is suitable for people to act. As for the stories about the fox spirits, storytelling or acting is fine."

"Hey, these are all written by girls?" Gu Jia looked at the girl in front of her with some disbelief.

"Of course!" Mei Xueer said shamelessly, "Find someone to prepare first. These stories can be told for a month. I'll update them for you at any time. When we finish, we'll change to new ones. In the end, we can compile these into a book and sell them to make more money. Think about it, those stories like "The Foolish Girl of the Zhao Family and the Bandit" are all selling well, and there are also people reading "Zhang Sheng and Cui Yingying". Do you think ours can surpass those?"

Mei Xueer didn't care whether Gu Jia understood or not, and continued to talk nonstop: "In the future, we can publish books and open bookstores, set up shops and open specialty stores, forming a one-stop pattern from writing, printing, publishing, and sales. There are also derivative markets, such as dramas, sketches, etc., and make some related objects, such as tea cups, paper fans, screens, tourist souvenirs, etc., and the added value of the products will go up immediately. This is called a one-stop cultural industry, it's simply a full industry chain!"
