Chapter 36 Ghostwriting
After he finished drawing, the boss nodded, "They are all common things. I estimate that these add up to more than ten taels. Do you really want to order a set?" With this money, it is better to use it to make silver What about the bracelet.

"You have to pay two taels as a deposit first."

"When will it be ready?" Yuan Suijun asked, and while paying two taels of silver as a deposit, the shop owner wrote him a note for the deposit, and stamped the red seal of his finger on it.

"These are not difficult to do, just come and pick them up tomorrow afternoon."

Yuan Suijun heaved a sigh of relief after settling his mind, and prepared to go back.

When he was going out, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a sneaky figure, Yuan Suijun recognized it at a glance, it was Su Yueling's great aunt Su Liaoshi.

Yuan Baoshu told him about Su Liao's attempt to "borrow money" some time ago, which also made him realize that Su Yueling's life in the Su family might not have been so satisfactory, so she naturally didn't like Su Liao's.

From Su Liao's sneaky appearance, one can guess at a glance that she is afraid and uneasy, but she doesn't know who is unlucky this time.

Looking in Su Liao's direction, Yuan Suijun saw a figure beyond his expectations - a masked man in a blue shirt embroidered with green bamboo.The figure of the man was quite familiar, and Yuan Suijun recognized Zhang Chengwang from his clothes.

There was a look in his eyes, and he finally followed. When passing by a stall, he bought a mask with two cents and covered his face.He saw Zhang Chengwang walking into the dead end in the southeast corner of the county seat.

Yuan Suijun had an idea in his mind, so he raised his feet and walked in another direction. From that side, it happened to be on the other side of the alley. Through the wall, he could hear the conversation, but he would not be discovered by the person involved.

As for the Su Liao family, they naturally followed without hesitation.

Zhang Chengwang didn't know that he had a tail behind him, so he came to the dead-end alley with ease, and when he walked inside, he held a roll of paper in his hand, on which were his works during this period.

Two policy theories and three poems all focus on autumn and winter.Zhang Chengwang reckoned that after the results of the college examination came out, the scholars in the city would hold various poetry meetings, and these would come in handy.

As for the two policy theories, they were written by Li Jianyue, the only son of his old client Li Yuanwai, and he was willing to give 10 taels of silver for one policy theory.After submitting these two articles, after deducting the tooth-lost person's commission, he can get 16 taels in his hand.

Zhang Chengwang thought that the money could be used to buy land.

Zhang Chengwang waited for a while, and finally he waited for the arrival of Zhang Da, the dentist he had always worked with. Zhang Da has always been very tight-lipped and never leaked customer information.But just in case, Zhang Chengwang would put on a mask every time he met him.

He called himself Yuan Qian in front of Zhang Da.

Zhang Da smiled when he saw "Yuan Qian", "Mr. Yuan is here, how many articles have you written this time?"

Zhang Chengwang tried his best to make his voice sound more mature, "The two policies Li Yuanwai asked for have been written, and there are three other poems related to autumn and winter."

Zhang Da's eyes lit up, and he said, "If you trust me, I'll send these to Li Yuanwai's house right now, it's not far from here anyway."

Zhang Chengwang also wanted to get the money as soon as possible, so he nodded.

Zhang Da knew that this was a big deal, and he wanted to make it happen as soon as possible so that he could get several taels of commission, so he ran out quickly.

After a stick of incense, Zhang Da came back again. His forehead was covered with sweat, and he obviously ran all the way here. His dark face was flushed with excitement, "Mr. I was so impressed by your literary talent that you gave me 50 taels in one go."

"You take the 40 taels."

This time he directly got 10 taels of silver.

Joy appeared in Zhang Chengwang's eyes. Previously, he sold his articles for a maximum of thirty taels a year, but this time he earned much more than he imagined.

He took the money, put it away, and said to Zhang Da: "I'll probably be busy for a while, and I'm afraid I won't be able to cooperate in these few months." He was going to have a college exam in August, and he had to put all his thoughts on it.

Zhang Da patted his chest, "It's okay, I can wait. If you have a new work, remember to look for me, Lao Zhang."

There was a bang, much like someone accidentally bumping into something.Zhang Da looked vigilantly at the alley not far away, and strode over.Zhang Chengwang raised his heart, could it be that someone overheard their conversation?He comforted himself that he was always wearing a mask and using a pseudonym, so even if the other party heard it, he would not know his identity.

And Yuan's surname... No matter what, he couldn't be contacted.So he calmed down again.

After Zhang Da came back, he shook his head and said, "It's nothing. When a wild cat ran over, it knocked down the jar."

Zhang Chengwang nodded slightly at him. He didn't mean to tell Zhang Da too much, so as not to reveal more information about himself.

Yuan Suijun, who was separated from him by a wall, frowned fiercely.

He didn't expect that Zhang Chengwang got the money by giving people contemporary pens.As a scholar, but to do this kind of behavior, it can be said that there is no courtesy, no shame, and unscrupulous.

Especially the pseudonym Yuan Qian the other party took...

This surname wouldn't be because he thought that if the Dongchuang incident happened, the disaster would be brought to him, right?

There was a cold look on Yuan Suijun's face, if he really wanted to, don't blame him for taking off his face.Leaving aside, his handwriting is completely different from Zhang Chengwang's, his own style, while Zhang Chengwang's handwriting is bright and formal, which belongs to the most regular type.

Maybe it was because he knew that his calligraphy and paintings could not be sold, so he chose this path.But even when Yuan Suijun was short of money, he would rather copy books than do such a thing.

He and Zhang Chengwang have different ways and do not conspire with each other.

Yuan Suijun waited for the sound on the other side of the wall to go away, and left quietly after a while.

He took off the mask and gave it to a child on the side of the road. Holding the things he bought this time, he got up and went home.The sword bought for Suifeng will not be available until tomorrow.

As soon as he reached the city gate, he was stopped by Su Liao's family.

Su Liao didn't ask Yuan Suijun for money this time, she just asked Yuan Suijun excitedly, "Suijun, do you still recognize me?"

Yuan Suijun called out lightly, "Auntie."

Su Liao didn't talk nonsense with him, and said in an excited tone, "I'll ask you a question. I'm the only child of a relative who is very talented. Then someone asked him to buy his poems and essays, and they published several taels. Do you think you should?" Should it be sold?"

Yuan Suijun realized that Su Liao was going to ask him about the seriousness of the matter so that he could handle Zhang Chengwang.

He showed a serious expression, "This kind of deceit is not advisable. If it spreads, I'm afraid that your relative's child will be ruined, and everyone will be ashamed to be with this person."

Su Liao understood, this is a big taboo in the circle of scholars!
It turned out that her good son-in-law committed such a major crime, and she will be able to handle him in the future.
