Except for the time to get on the road, the major cities in Jeju, such as Ji'an, Linzi, and Taizhou, do not stay longer than 20 days.

Stayed so short because Zhou Ming discovered that he didn't seem to be very popular.

For example, Tang Junming, a classmate, held a "Signed Book Sale" for readers and authors in a newly opened Zihua Bookstore in the capital of Jeju City and Yangcheng. During the promotion and warm-up period, there were five or six hundred A reader wrote a letter saying that he will definitely come to this "meeting meeting", meet the "Mr. Zihua" whom they have long admired, and buy a few sets of "Zihua Collected Works" autographed by Mr. Zihua, etc ... ... As a result, on the day of the signing book sale meeting, only less than two hundred people arrived at the scene, and most of the people who strongly said they would come did not come.

For example, Lu Wencai, a classmate, in Linzi City, where he is full of energy, packed the entire Zuixianlou, and posted invitations widely, inviting a group of local celebrities and elegant prostitutes, as well as some local prostitutes, preparing to have a show in Zuixianlou. A large-scale "poetry society", together with the boss "Haiping Wenxian", taste poetry, fly flowers and wine, cast pot poems, listen to prostitutes playing the piano, how to be elegant ... As a result, the drunken poetry society is invited to come Those who are not fully seated.

Even when the poetry meeting was only halfway through, "Hai Ping Wen Xian" Tian Zihua, had just created two poems that cheered everyone on the field, and when the atmosphere became strong, a group of people suddenly came to the scene The uninvited guests, this group of uninvited guests, are mostly middle-aged men, and there are several old-faced old men, all of whom are Confucian and Confucian, with a cold face and a bad look.

As soon as they entered the field, these people scolded at Zhou Ming, saying that his "Story Meeting" by Zihua Bookstore "corrupted the atmosphere" and "reversed the holy way", and his "Zihua Collection" was "cheerful" and "not worth it" "Ill", as for "Comic", it is the focus of their abuse, saying that it "leads people to evil" and "mistakes of children", asking him to "close up early" to avoid "disaster" and "harming himself" in the future body".

All kinds of harsh accusations made Zhou Ming have a sense of "thousands of fingers".

Appeared in this era, the first batch of "spraying" made Zhou Ming, who was still in a good mood, face like water, and the mood was extremely bad.

But after thinking about it, Zhou Ming immediately figured out the reason.

In the final analysis, it was Zihua Bookstore that he founded, which violated the interests of these "Qilu Mingru".

What does 子 华 书屋 represent?

Is to advocate freedom, to be aggressive, to be open, innovative, and unconstrained.

What do these Qilu famous Confucians represent?

Is old-fashioned, stubborn and conservative.

Two kinds of things are out of tune. Naturally, there will also be violent collisions and conflicts.

Especially an old man, pointing to his nose, pointing to some verses written by him, accused him of being "unlucky", violating the saint's "slight words", claiming that Zhou Ming's "great rebellion" His behavior will surely be self-defeating ... Zhou Ming was furious, and he was speechless in a sentence, red-faced and red, almost vomiting blood and fainting:

"Your first and foremost fellow is also worthy of talking about the saint's little words and meanings? I only say one thing, this place is a place of saints, why do the rich have many continuity, and the poor have no place of cones? Er, as a saint's disciple, why not see that benevolence See the thief everywhere? Send a sentence to you next: Since you are a bitch, do n’t set up the saint ’s arch, junior, ashamed of hypocrisy and other hypocrisy words! "After that, he walked away.

After completely offending these "Qilu Mingru", Zhou Ming and others had to leave in disappointment.

However, there are still some gains in Jeju. For example, when climbing famous mountains such as Mount Tai and Xiaolu Mountain, Zhou Ming wrote a "Deng Taishan Fu" and several excellent works of poems. Soon after, through Zihua Book House, these The works are widely circulated in the world. Many local literati and celebrities in Jilu, after watching these poems and fuss, sighed in the chest and felt anguished: "Why did n’t Mr. Zihua stay for a while in Jeju? Poof! I wish I could n’t talk to Mr. Zihua Take a tour of Mount Tai, and see its fairy chanting poetry, the endowment of the fu ......... what annoying it is! "

At this time, Mr. Zihua, who had long disappeared, was nowhere to be found.

Uh ...

Yangchun May, on a broad official road.

A team of horsemen came from the wind and dust.

Approaching the evening, under the setting sun, fifteen weeks in a week, surrounded by a majestic city with a moat around, radiating golden light like a city of gold in front of it. This hurried rider only slowed down and wandered on the shore of Yangliu.

Riding on the horse, everyone looked at the spring water in the moat. In the breeze, the catkins flew. On the white stone slab road, the tall horses also raised the horseshoes, and they didn't seem to want to make too much noise.

The warm wind is intoxicating, and the surrounding scenery is like a paradise in heaven.

"Hundreds of thousands of waists, riding a crane to Yangzhou! This Yangzhou is really the richest place in the world!"

After paying the entrance fee and entering this huge city that may have 300,000 people, there are countless people on the streets, crowded warehouses, and carters. There are countless men, women and children wearing different colors of clothing, rubbing their shoulders, from When passing by ... Zhou Ming, who was leading the horse, shouted loudly to Zhang Yuandao beside the merchants on both sides.

"Yes, Brother Zihua, when we passed Suzhou and Tuozhou, which is known as the" paradise on earth ", we felt that it was already a big city in the world. Unexpectedly, this Yangzhou capital was more prosperous than that of Nazhou and Suzhou. Several times! "

Classmate Zhang Yuan lamented that compared with Yangzhou, the development level of his hometown, Qingzhou, was indeed too far behind.

"Yangzhou is the hometown of fish and rice, the hometown of yam, and the salt industry of Yangzhou. It has brought infinite wealth to this place. The accumulation of wealth over hundreds of years has created a large number of salt merchants on the rich side. Therefore, there are two things that are most famous here. One is Yangzhou cuisine. For example, there is a famous dish called 'Thousand Silk Tongue'. To make a dish of this dish, you must use the tongue of a thousand tender chickens to cook a dish ... "

"Second is the Yangzhou skinny horses. It is said that these skinny horses are male and female. After buying the thin girl, they carefully tuned them, passed on their qin chess and calligraphy and painting, taught them all kinds of ingenuity, and made them half hungry and half full. He has developed a slender figure. Among them, the "three-inch golden lotus" is the best. These thin horses, after being bought by the wealthy and rich merchants, are playful and satisfying the change of mind. There are many thin horses every year. It ’s really pitiful to die by condemnation ... "

Classmate Cui Shian, I am deeply sorry for some prosperous and abnormal things in the prosperity of Yangzhou.

Hearing this, Li's big mouth on the side, eyes widening like brass bells, said: "I am the first to hear that rich people can still play like this? But ..." He clenched his fists again, his face sad. Authentically: "If anyone dared to treat my sister as a thin horse, my fist will surely smash that person's head into a pulp."

Li Dazui's family has two younger brothers and three younger sisters. Because he eats the most, the younger brothers and younger sisters are very thin, especially the three younger sisters. When you think about it, it is really the same as the "thin horse" Cui Shian describes, but, Now that he can make money, he has sent hundreds of homes one after another. The conditions in his hometown have improved a lot. The three younger sisters should not be so thin ...

Zhou Ming didn't say anything. Some people have money, and their moral quality will not improve. Instead, they will quickly decline and do all kinds of ridiculous things ... But in this era, people have long been accustomed to it, and there are even more absurd. The noble royal family is not as good as that. Absolute rights, absolute desires, no certain restrictions, most people will be lost in these desires, and will be destroyed in them ...

Zhou Ming, who has experienced everything, desires and desires, of course, there are, but, he has become the master of these desires, instead of being enslaved in turn.

After walking through several streets, I asked the locals a few times, and Zhou Ming and others finally found a four-story restaurant called "Deyun Building"-this is a Tianjia enterprise that Zhou Ming sent people to start, the world There is one in every state capital in ten states. Naturally, Deyun Building is also the predecessor of "Deyun Society".

Of course, Deyun Building is still more important for meals and accommodation, but there are also some storytellers and showgirls who talk about book reviews and singing performances in the building every day, plus some special dishes. Deyun Building soon became One of the most famous restaurants in Yangzhou City.

Just entered the restaurant.

Leng Wencai and Tang Junming, who learned the news, quickly walked downstairs.

"Boss, waiting for you eight or nine days, why didn't you arrive until now?"

"Boss, UU reading www.uukanshu.com. If you never come back, I and Brother Wencai, I am afraid that I will be drowned by those who want to see you. Good guy, I have received two hundred at most one day, eight hundred. Many letters ... Boss, you do n’t know yet, how hot are you in Yangzhou City now? "

Lu Wencai pulled Zhou Ming's sleeves and said: "Boss, you still hold the pipa's half-covering plan. It's absolutely awesome! In Yangzhou City, Mr. Zihua's reputation is already great. Zihua a few months ago After the opening of the bookstore, your fame is even more terrible. Brother Junming and I, after releasing the news that you might pass through Yangzhou, guess what? Your fans are going crazy ... Come, boss, I will take you Go to a room and look at the pile of prayers and letters to make you startled! "

Unlike Jeju, which has a tendency to be conservative, Mr. Zihua has always been very popular in Yangzhou. He sent people to Qingzhou to buy a large number of works of Mr. Zihua. When he returned, he pirated a lot. It was also Yangzhou ’s bookstore. A rich state with a strong commercial atmosphere and a very entertaining atmosphere, Mr. Zihua ’s reputation is not much lower than that of Qingzhou.

This can be seen from Zhou Ming et al.'S short stay in Suzhou and Tuozhou, which caused the phenomenon of emptiness of all people and the phenomenon of Baitiaoyun. It can be seen that in this era, the collective of handsome guys, talents and celebrities are still very popular People welcome.

Hearing Lu Wencai's words, Zhou Ming smiled slightly and waved his sleeves: "This matter is not in a hurry, I rushed for many days, and let me burn incense and bathe for five days, first wash the wind and dust on this body ...

Finally, under the guidance of the manager, he walked straight up to the second floor.
