"I'll go back and think about it." Li Qingyou said, and then pointed to the album, "But I won't sell this book for three taels of silver, at least five taels."

Li Qingyou did not give him a direct answer. This matter must be considered carefully.

Third Young Master Shen was not in a hurry and directly handed over an ingot worth five taels of silver.

Adi had come back at this time. Li Qingyou stood up to say goodbye, but heard Third Young Master Shen say: "It's a pity that this is the only one. It would be better if there were more."

Li Qingyou paused and looked over.

Mr. Shen spread his hands and said, "Block printing requires printing at least five thousand copies, but this is different from books and is not very convenient."

There are many reasons for the inconvenience. First of all, you need to find a skilled carpenter. In addition, in the past, the carved characters can be disassembled and reassembled, but the painting is different. Each plate can only be carved in one type, which is not flexible enough. .

You can find it by looking for a skilled carpenter, but this thing is not suitable for publicity after all. If it reaches his father's ears, there will probably be a lot of criticism. And to be honest, this small profit is not enough to seduce Third Young Master Shen. Eye.

Before leaving, Master Shen once again asked Li Qingyou to go back and paint more, "Next time the girl comes back, you can send it directly to Moxiangzhai. It is the property of the Shen family, and shopkeeper Xu will entertain you."

Does Moxiangzhai belong to the Shen family?

Li Qingyou raised her eyebrows. It seemed that she had a deep connection with the Shen family.

Mr. Shen didn't ask her who the album was from, and she wouldn't tell the truth if he asked her, so he simply didn't ask.

Regarding his proposal, Li Qingyou did not comment, and she and her brother went out and returned to the He family's old store.

Qian Fugui breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them coming back, "I'm wondering what happened to you. You came back with a loss."

He also said that there are no more powerful people in this city than in Qingshan County, "You have to be careful in everything you do, otherwise you don't know who you will offend, and we won't be able to eat and walk around."

He was speaking from the bottom of his heart, and Li Qingyou also understood it deeply. The wretched man in green robe and Mr. Shen they met yesterday were not something they could afford to offend.

"Yes, I understand. Thank you, Third Brother Qian." Li Qingyou smiled and thanked her. The sun shone on the girl's face, clearly reflecting the down on it.

Not having a good rest last night made Li Qingyou's face paler and more delicate. Qian Fugui's ears felt hot when he saw it, he scratched his head and said no thank you, then turned around to greet the others and get ready to go on their way.

It's just that his steps are a little hasty.

On the way back, Li Qingyou and Adi were still in the same car with the Qin family's mother and daughter. Qin Xiu glanced at Li Qingyou from time to time, and quickly looked away when she looked over.

Although Li Qingyou was confused about this, she ignored it.

Adi also noticed it, but as long as this woman didn't provoke them, he wouldn't pay attention to her.

Qin Xiu didn't think much about it. After all, she was just a girl from an ordinary family. At most, she had some small thoughts but could not do any serious evil. This was why Li Qingyou ignored her.

Qin Xiu just wondered. Although Li Qingyou was not bad looking, she was not very good-looking. She was far from being a queen. She was not even as good-looking as her younger sister.

But why is it so attractive to men?

This was what she was puzzled about.

It's just Zhang Tieniu. After all, he has lived in the same alley for several years, and he can express his affection to a certain extent, but that Feng Wenru, Qian Fugui, and the third Young Master Shen in a pink robe that he just saw.

Especially Mr. Shen, such a handsome and handsome man, she was attracted by her. What kind of charming tricks does this little prodigal have?

She is no worse born than Li Qingyou, and she has a broad mind, a hundred times stronger than her withered body, but why do these men only look at her?

Could it be that they are all blind?

Li Qingyou didn't know Qin Xiu's little thoughts. He barely slept in the prison last night. He didn't sleep for a while until it was almost dawn. Now the carriage was swaying and he was even more sleepy. His eyelids were fighting. After a while, he dreamed of Duke Zhou. Went.

Adi was not much better than her and slept soundly on Li Qingyou's shoulder.

Fortunately, Fucheng is not very far from Qingshan County, and the convoy finally made it back to the county before dark.

When I got home, I saw Xiaoshan Niang feeding pigs. Seeing that Li Qingyou was back, she quickly wiped her hands on her apron and came out, "Why did you come back? I was so worried. Did you encounter anything on the way?"

Normally, she should have returned in the middle of the afternoon, but this delay lasted more than two hours. She thought she was in trouble again like last time.

Zhao Xiaoshan is here today, and he is very happy to see Li Qingyou and his sister. After not seeing each other for a while, he has grown quite a bit.

This is mainly because I work in the Zhang family and have good food.

"Sister Li, brother, you are back." Zhao Xiaoshan took the baggage and talked to the two siblings as they walked.

Li Qingyou asked him how it was like working in the Zhang family and whether anyone treated him harshly. Zhao Xiaoshan smiled and said no, "The Zhang family are very good. I work honestly and do whatever I am asked to do. There is no problem." People say that about me."

Li Qingyou also specially warned him, "It's different in other people's homes. You have to be discerning. When you see someone else is too busy, go over and hold out your hand, mouth a sweet treat, and be diligent with your hands and feet."

In fact, there is no need for Li Qingyou to explain this. Zhao Xiaoshan has been an apprentice for several years. He does nothing in the master's house and is basically like free labor.

But he still listened carefully to what Li Qingyou said and nodded in agreement.

Li Qingyou was very happy to see that he was obedient. Zhao Xiaoshan was not very smart and was even a bit pedantic. This could be seen from his attitude towards his master.

But he is willing to obey, which is better than anything else.

What I'm most afraid of are those stubborn people who are like donkeys, who only believe in themselves and won't listen to anything others say.

"Okay, don't worry about him. He's so old, so he understands in his heart. Wash your face and eat." Xiaoshan Niang came in from outside. She had already prepared the food while the few people were talking.

Li Qingyou remembered the sauced pork he brought back from Fucheng, took it out of the bag, cut it into a plate and put it on the table. The four of them gathered around the table and had dinner, talking and laughing.

At the dinner table, Li Qingyou suddenly remembered what Mr. Shen said, looked at Zhao Xiaoshan and asked him, "Can you carve?"

Zhao Xiaoshan nodded, then shook his head, "Yes, but the carving is not very good."

After all, he didn't study for long. Although he had been an apprentice for a long time, the master didn't really teach him the craft. Most of the time, he acted as a free laborer. The master only gave him a few pointers occasionally, and most of the time he did the work. , he looked on.
