The storytellers remained silent for a long time, and Gu Xiaoyou asked anxiously: "How about some gentlemen, what do you think of my story?"

One of the storytellers responded and clapped his hands: "Wonderful, wonderful, this is the most fresh and interesting story I have ever heard."

The other gentlemen seemed to be waking up from a dream and clapped their hands: "Boss Gu is so talented."

"Interesting and interesting, much more interesting than the story about the scholar and the lady."

"It's very novel. Although it's a bit blunt in some places, if I change it, it won't be a good story."

After hearing the praises from the storytellers, Gu Xiaoyou felt at ease.

"Can any of you gentlemen think of how to change it? Do you need me to repeat it again?"

"No, we don't have any other skills. We just have a good memory and can repeat it after listening to it once." The storyteller said with a bit of pride.

"That's great, do you gentlemen have any ideas?" Gu Xiaoyou asked with a little more joy.

"Mr. Feng among us is the best at telling stories about talented men and beautiful women. Boss Gu, why not listen to him." Mr. Storyteller, the older man, recommended.

"Okay." Gu Xiaoyou responded: "Just ask Mr. Feng to talk about it."

After saying this, I saw a slightly fat gentleman with a kind face standing up and bowing: "I will boldly change it."

Gu Xiaoyou nodded expectantly, Mr. Feng's expression changed, and the corner of his mouth raised a slight smile: "By the way, a young lady from a certain family is waiting to be married..."

In just a few words, Mr. Feng changed Gu Xiaoyouyou's somewhat modern story into a rather ancient-style story. After listening to most of it, Gu Xiaoyou began to wonder if this was a story written by her.

How come it has become so classic, with a little more twists and turns and romance? It sounds really nice.

After Mr. Feng finished speaking for a long time and picked up the tea cup to moisten his mouth, Gu Xiaoyou couldn't help but applaud: "That's great, you are a genius at telling stories!"

"I don't deserve it. Boss Gu's story is better. I just modified it a little." Mr. Feng said humbly.

"You are too humble, you should change it well." Gu Xiaoyou praised him profusely. Just as he was about to reach out to pat Mr. Feng on the shoulder, he suddenly remembered what Mu Wuchen said about men and women not being intimate, and silently took his hand away.

go back.

"Then please ask Mr. Feng to revise this story. I will interview a few scholars this afternoon. If Mr. Feng is ready, you can tell the story to them for recording and polishing." Gu Xiaoyou arranged in an orderly manner.

"I am willing to listen to Boss Gu's arrangements." Mr. Feng saw the gift, sat back down and murmured in a low voice.

Gu Xiaoyou looked at the other storytellers and asked, "I wonder what types of stories these gentlemen are good at?"

"I'm good at telling anecdotes."

"I'm good at telling strange stories."

"I tell more historical romance stories."

The storyteller spoke in twos and threes, and Gu Xiaoyou felt dizzy again: "Stop, I'd better ask one by one."

The storytellers quieted down, and Gu Xiaoyou asked one by one, and then he figured out the types that the storytellers were good at.

Two of them, like Mr. Feng, can tell romance stories, three can tell martial arts stories, and there are two who are better at telling goofy stories. The older gentleman is good at historical stories.

After Gu Xiaoyou put it all together, she thought about her story inventory and found that the people Mu Wuchen sent were really all-inclusive. Fortunately, she knew a lot of stories, which were definitely different from the existing stories and were fresh, interesting and exciting enough.

"I make up all love stories, but I also know other stories. Let's do this. I will tell a story to a gentleman every morning and afternoon, and you can adapt it. Of course, if you have your own stories, you can also tell them. If it's good,

, it can be compiled directly into a book.”

"Okay, it's all up to Boss Gu's arrangement." The storytellers were obviously interested in Gu Xiaoyou's proposal and agreed one after another.

While we were talking, it was already noon. Gu Xiaoyou arranged for the storytellers to have lunch and then went to the business card shop to interview scholars.

Gu Xiaoyou tested the suitable scholars according to common interview questions and said to them: "I will tell you about working in my store. You are responsible for recording the stories told by the storytellers. Since the stories told by the gentlemen are a bit colloquial,

I just hope you can polish it up. I settle the bill according to the number of words. Each person is responsible for writing a book. Every thousand words is worth fifty words, and a well-written thousand words is worth one hundred words."

After Gu Xiaoyou finished speaking, several scholars were very happy. They did not expect that a very simple job for them could have such a high income. Furthermore, the contract provided free pen, ink, paper and inkstone, as well as rest time.

The scholars actively signed the contract.

"Now there is only one gentleman who has stories. Which of you is better at writing stories about talented men and beautiful women?" Gu Xiaoyou asked.

Two or three scholars with reddish faces raised their hands. Gu Xiaoyou waved his hand: "You can go to the backyard to find Mr. Feng and ask him to take the school exam. Then I will arrange for you to work in the book club."

The three scholars immediately walked quickly to the backyard. Gu Xiaoyou glanced at their backs strangely, curled his lips, turned to the other scholars and said: "Don't be anxious, follow me to the backyard first, and get familiar with the other gentlemen. If there is any

If you have a story, sir, you can work together."

"But it depends on Boss Gu's arrangement." The scholars said politely and followed Gu Xiaoyou to the backyard.

After some discussion, five gentlemen had their own stories. Gu Xiaoyou listened to them and found that the story told by the storyteller was much more interesting than the story told by the bookstore. He immediately made a decision: "Just ask a few gentlemen to tell the story."

Please record the story and make it into a booklet, and I will give you a share of the story."

Gu Xiaoyou assigned the scholars to the gentlemen again, and coincidentally, the nine gentlemen happened to be nine scholars, and the name of Jiumen Book Club all occupied the character nine.

"What a coincidence. This store is destined to be open for a long time." Gu Xiaoyou said with a smile.

She said to the remaining three gentlemen who had no stories yet: "This gentleman will stay in the afternoon and I will tell you a martial arts story. The other two will come to me in the morning and the afternoon tomorrow. You can make arrangements."

The two storytellers discussed it and agreed on a time with Gu Xiaoyou.

Gu Xiaoyou told the storyteller the martial arts story he told Mu Wuchen yesterday. The storyteller and the scholar he was accompanying listened to it with great interest, and they were still immersed in the story until Gu Xiaoyou finished telling it.

Gu Xiaoyou took a sip of tea and looked at the sky: "It's getting late today. You two can just come over tomorrow morning and go directly to the book club."

"Yes, Boss Gu." The storyteller and the scholar cupped their hands and stood up to leave.
