Jiang Shian's lips curled up slightly. This lady is quite interesting. In ancient times, people always followed the Three Obediences and Four Virtues, and the husband was the heaven. Her idea is somewhat similar to those girls who like to read novels with heroines in modern times.

After listening to almost everything, he took two steps forward to interrupt the two people who were arguing, "I came at a bad time. I have written the script that Shopkeeper Bai promised to write before. Do you think it's okay?"

Being interrupted, the two people looked at him at the same time. The shopkeeper didn't care about being angry anymore and directly stuffed the script in Jiang Shian's hand into the hands of the little maid.

"Come, come, this is the latest one. Ask your young lady if she likes it. You are so picky when reading a storybook."

The little maid flipped through it casually and found that the handwriting was quite beautiful, but she couldn't read, so how could she know what was written inside?

She snorted, "Don't fool me so easily, wait until I take it back to show my lady."

"Hey……"

Jiang Shian only had time to stretch out his hand and grab in mid-air, and the other party had already walked away before he could finish his words.

He had no choice but to look at Shopkeeper Bai in front of him and said, "Shopkeeper, you are..."

Shopkeeper Bai sighed, "You see, I'm so angry that I'm confused. Let me pay you two taels of silver as a deposit. His daughter has paid me for a year's worth of books. In two days, the little maid will definitely come to get a new one. Then I'll take a look at the book you wrote. If it's good, you can send it to me when you finish writing it."

Thinking of what the maid had said just now, he became furious again. "You heard it just now. Look at what these requests are. Most of the storybooks in my shop are bought by the young ladies in town to read at home, or by the storytellers in the restaurant. You can write according to your wishes."

Jiang Shian nodded and accepted the money. He didn't expect that he could make so much money from just this one storybook.

The two chatted for a while, and then he said goodbye and prepared to leave.

The shopkeeper did not try to persuade him to stay, but still gave him a set of paper and pen as he had said last time, and asked him to send the finished script back in two days.

In this way, this can be considered a small way to make money. With Ji Yinghuai in charge of writing, it is relatively easy for him.

When he finishes writing down all the ideas in his mind, he can probably earn a hundred taels, Jiang Shian thought happily.

At daybreak in the morning, they boarded a carriage to the town.

The carriage belonged to the village chief, and they borrowed it for a day and paid two cents.

I was busy planting seedlings and vegetables these days, so I hardly used the carriage. The village chief originally refused to take the money, so Jiang Shian simply stuffed it into the hands of Li Ge'er who was playing nearby.

Although they were all from the same village, he really didn't like to owe favors to others. This way, it would be convenient to borrow money later, and others wouldn't say he was taking advantage.

Ji Yinghuai sat in the front and drove the carriage, with two bamboo baskets beside him. Inside were rabbits and pheasants that he had hunted in the mountains yesterday. The wild boar was tied to the back of the carriage with a rope and followed it.

Jiang Shian was originally worried that the wild boar would run away, so he had been staring at it since he got on the carriage. He didn't know how the man tied the rope so tightly, but the little wild boar followed the carriage obediently.

In addition, there are two particularly large wooden frames in the car, one of which contains neatly arranged toothbrushes, and the other is a bamboo box filled with tooth powder.

The shops in the town sold exquisite boxes for small items, some round and some square, with patterns carved on the outside, but each box cost ten cents. He didn't have much spare money, so he had to find a way himself.

This was an idea suggested by Carpenter Yang. There were many bamboo forests on the mountain of Taohua Village. A thick bamboo tube could be split into two parts. Carpenter Yang was very skillful and made a lid to cover the bamboo tube.

In this way, a box for tooth powder is made, which is simple and does not cost much.

Today was the day he had chosen. He would put everything in place and set off a bunch of firecrackers to tell people around him that a new shop had opened.

When we arrived at the town, there were few people on the street. Apart from the merchants and small stalls selling breakfast on both sides of the road, there was almost no one walking around.

The carriage stopped directly in front of the shop they rented, and Ji Yinghuai took the key and opened the door.

Then the two of them carefully moved the things in. After the things were moved into the house, Jiang Shian prepared to place them on the wooden cabinet, and also posted instructions and precautions on various places on the wall.

These were also drawn by Ji Yinghuai according to his requirements. He drew a picture of a Q-version man brushing his teeth, and wrote the specific usage instructions in words next to it.

"I'll just arrange them here. You're not going to sell these prey!" This job is not difficult, he can do it alone. The little wild boar was tied to the back of the carriage, and it kept howling.

Ji Yinghuai nodded, "Okay, then I'll park the carriage first, and then go to the nearby restaurant to ask if they will accept it. I'll leave this place to you, call me if you need anything."

"Yeah, I know." Jiang Shian responded with a smile.

He noticed that this man had a smile on his face since this morning, and the tone of his voice when he spoke to him was a little different from the past two days, but the change was not particularly big, which made him confused.

Ji Yinghuai had a slender figure. He got on the carriage with one step of his long legs. Then he raised the reins in his hand, and the carriage slowly drove away from the shop.

Jiang Shian curled his lips when he saw this. How come he looked like a mighty general preparing to ride on a tall and fine horse just by getting on a carriage?

He chose to locate his shop in a busy part of the market. Many shops around were already open. Seeing Ji Yinghuai's action, everyone had the same idea as him.

When a stranger opened a shop, the surrounding merchants naturally had to pay attention, fearing that it was another competitor who came to steal their business. However, since I had rented the shop for four or five days, I hadn't seen anyone there, and I thought it was closed. I didn't expect that the person who came to do business this morning was actually a young man.

Many people stood around curiously and looked into Jiang Shian's shop.

Suddenly they came with a cart of stuff early in the morning, as if they were about to open for business, but I had no idea what they were selling.

The curious shopkeeper of the shop next door simply stood at the door and asked Jiang Shian inside: "Young boss, what kind of business are you planning to do? I have never seen the things you have on display."

Jiang Shian gave him a friendly smile. He was quite familiar with this shopkeeper. He had sold his clothes there.

He took a set of toothpaste and toothbrush and walked a few steps closer, introducing: "This is a little thing I researched. This one is called a toothbrush, and this one is tooth powder. As the name suggests, it's for brushing teeth."

He pointed to a few paintings hanging on the wall and said, "How about it, Manager Zhang, do you want to try it?"

Zhang Songbai took the toothpaste and toothbrush from Jiang Shian. He lowered his head and looked at them carefully. He smiled and said, "You are quite smart, young master. I have never heard of a toothbrush like this. It looks very practical."

"It's quite practical. I used to chew twigs and felt my teeth were a bit dry. This thing solves the problem of brushing teeth very well. I'll give this set to Shopkeeper Zhang. Take it home and try it. If it works for you, remember to buy a few more sets."
