My husband, please respect yourself. The princess is here to grab the bride.

Chapter 145 The visitor is evil!

The Liujiaojing Alley is filled with the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers!

As everyone watched in shock, a team of fifty people stood in unison on the street in front of Sanwei Bookstore.

These fifty people are all women!

They are all young and beautiful women dressed in red and green!

There are drummers in front and behind.

Those in the middle are all waving colorful flags!

They marched in unison to the beat of drums in front of the gate of Sanwei Book House, with the small flags in their hands swaying with their waists, creating the most beautiful scenery in Xiling City in this early summer!

Bai Shaoqiu was standing in front of the gate of Sanwei Bookstore.

On the left and right are He Xiaofeng and Zhao Xiaoshu.

Behind him are Uncle Fu, Xiao Xi and Manager Wen.

The onlookers were extremely surprised, wondering what this son-in-law of the prince's palace was going to do next.

Isn’t it just opening a bookstore?

What's the point of inviting so many girls and making such a big scene?

They all thought that this son-in-law would say something, but unexpectedly...

Bai Shaoqiu waved his hand, without saying a word, he turned around and walked back to Sanwei Bookstore.

The team turned left, and the drummer ran to the front and back of the team, and another burst of firecrackers rang out.

"Dong dong dong..."

Amid the drumbeats, the team headed towards the west end of the alley.

The girls were still swaying their waists and waving the flags in their hands. Suddenly, they shouted in unison in the crowd:

"The Stone!"

"..."

They walked towards the streets and alleys of Xiling City.

The sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers filled the air, and the shouts of "The Story of the Stone" resounded through the sky.

What the hell,

The idle people wandering on the street, the shop owners and waiters, and even the girls embroidering in the boudoir all ran out and stood on both sides of the street to watch this strange team.

What they are most curious about is what The Story of the Stone is?

When the onlookers took a closer look, they saw that the small flags in the girls' hands also had the three big words "The Story of the Stone" written on them!

The team passed by Changning Academy next to the Broken Bridge, Changxing Academy beside the Hanshui River, and Shangling Academy.

More and more people followed them, and gradually they seemed to form a long dragon.

This incident naturally alarmed the city defense office.

When Chen Cong, the captain of the Xiling City Defense Force, reported this to the city defender Ge Gang, Ge Gang was shocked:

"Is Mr. Bai in there?"

"Your Excellency, Mr. Bai is still staying at Sanwei Book House."

Ge Gang finally breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good... Don't worry about them... Wait, we should send some people to follow them, we can't let anything go wrong!"

"Okay, my subordinate will go right away."

"You said there were fifty young girls... Where did these girls come from?"

"My Lord, they are the young ladies from Tianxiang Tower."

"Oh... go ahead."

Chen Cong bowed and took his leave. Ge Gang thought for a moment and said, "Come... follow me out to take a look!"

……

Qi Shaotong and Zhuo's group were also among the onlookers.

Of course they were also very surprised.

It’s not that I’m surprised by this bookstore. After all, Mr. Si, the great scholar, came to the academy and talked about this matter a few days ago.

What surprised them was the name of the bookstore.

It is not called Bai's Bookstore, but Sanwei Bookstore!

This name seems to have a profound meaning, but I don’t know what it means.

In addition, what really surprised them was the method Bai Shaoqiu used to promote his Sanwei Bookstore -

"Is this... really okay?"

Zhuo Yihang looked at the girls dressed in fancy clothes and said, "Whether it's a bookstore or a bookshop, they are all places that sell articles."

"Poetry and prose...are always somewhat elegant, but he invited the ladies from the brothel...isn't this a bit of a blasphemy towards literature and writers?"

Qi Shaotong smiled slightly:

"I don't think so."

"What do you think, Brother Qi?"

"Effect!"

Qi Shaotong raised his hand and gestured towards the densely packed crowds on both sides of the street:

"Look, after these girls have walked through the streets and alleys of Xiling City, the name of his Sanwei Bookstore has become known to everyone, young and old!"

"This kind of popularity... is there any other shop in Xiling City that can compare?"

"For the next period of time, everyone in Xiling City will be talking about his Sanwei Bookstore. They will all be curious about his Sanwei Bookstore. So, many people will run to Liujiaojing Alley to see his Sanwei Bookstore!"

"There are so many people reading this book, there will always be people going into the bookstore to take a look."

"As long as the books he sells are good, people will naturally buy them. Isn't that the deal?"

"He used the least amount of money to make the name of Sanwei Bookstore a household name in Xiling City..."

"Mr. Bai is not only good at poetry and writing, he is also good at business!"

Upon hearing this, Zhuo Yixing thought for a moment and nodded slightly.

"But they didn't promote Sanwei Bookstore. Instead, they were shouting about The Story of the Stone... What the hell is The Story of the Stone?"

Qi Shaotong shook his head: "I don't know either."

"How about...we go to Sanwei Bookstore?"

"Okay, if he's at Sanwei Bookstore, I'll have a chat with him."

The two left the crowd and headed towards Sanwei Bookstore.

The group of women continued to walk forward in their fancy clothes, and as they walked, they arrived at the street where Chang's Bookstore was located.

This is a very busy street.

Chang's Bookstore is located in the middle of this street. It has three storefronts and its decoration is antique and exquisite.

now,

Chang Fugui was standing in front of his shop with his second son Chang Huan and the newly appointed butler.

The sound of gongs and drums became louder and louder.

The women's shouts were getting closer and closer.

The three words "The Story of the Stone" kept echoing in Chang Fugui's ears like a magic sound, and he hated this sound!

His hands were clenched into fists, and his eyes seemed to be on fire!

He already knew what "The Story of the Stone" was.

Originally he did not care much about this news, but Qiye said that the prefaces of "The Story of the Stone" were written by his teachers, Mr. Si and Mr. Fang from Kyoto!

Qiye had not read "A Dream of Red Mansions", but Qiye told him that the great scholar Si praised this long chapter novel highly, calling it a masterpiece unprecedented and unparalleled!

It is even 30% better than the "Flower Moon Song" written last year by Master Du Ziteng, the director of the Imperial College in Kyoto and one of the six great Confucian scholars of Xingguo!

If someone else said this, Chang Fugui would definitely sneer at it.

But it was Qi Ye who said this!

Qi Ye has always been by the side of Mr. Si!

There is no need to question Mr. Si's ability to appreciate literature.

Bai Shaoqiu...

Where did this guy find a scholar named Meng Ruan Jushi to write this long chapter novel?

Who is this Mr. Meng Ruan?

He can actually write a long chapter novel better than Master Du...

Chang Fugui had to re-examine Bai Shaoqiu.

I even suspected that Bai Changgeng had returned.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart!

The person is not good!
