Chapter 268: What I Want



When returning, Li Yu was sent downstairs by Qu Xiangbai.

He felt that he was almost the same as Chen Zongwen now, and regarded Li Yu as the God of Wealth.

"Madam, go back first. If you have any new ideas, come over and discuss them with us. I have been in the capital recently.

As for the people I'll need when I go to the capital after the New Year, I'll slowly look for them."

It seems that Qu Xiangbai really takes the magazine to heart, and Li Yu is also very happy.

Magazines can make much more money than storybooks if they are done well.

Some people don't like reading stories like vernacular novels.

But when it comes to fashion trends in food and clothing, she doesn't believe that there is no woman who doesn't like to see them.

Especially women who love beauty and have money, there are many such people in the capital.

This is where the big money is made.

Thinking of this, Li Yu began to look forward to going to Beijing. She wanted to make money, a lot of money.

She had a wish, a wish she wanted to fulfill in modern times.

But it has never been possible due to money problems. She believes that she can do it in this era.

It’s possible in Beijing.

She said to Qu Xiangbai in a good mood, "We're looking for someone with a long-term development plan in the capital. We need all kinds of talents: writers, painters, business people, or even people who know how to make rouge and powder."

Although Qu Xiangbai didn't know what Li Yu wanted these people for, she was sure they would be useful.

Although Li Yu only gave him a general idea, he inexplicably felt that he could succeed.

He stood at the door, looking at the street and thinking about something, when Du Liangan came over.

"What is the boss thinking?"

Qu Xiangbai didn't answer, but just asked him: "Aliang, do you want to go to the capital?"

This question made Du Liangan stunned for a moment, and he didn't understand what he meant.

"Is something going to happen in the capital? Besides, someone is in charge of the Capital Library."

"My wife and I have decided to do something big. Would you take charge?"

The wife from before? Du Liangan recalled Li Yu's appearance and found that he couldn't remember what she looked like.

If Li Yu were here, he would definitely give him a word: face blindness.

"Who is she? I see you guys are having a smooth conversation."

Qu Xiangbai didn't say who she was, but only said, "All the best-selling books in our store recently are from her hand."

Just from this one sentence, Du Liangan already knew who it was.

Looking towards the door, the lady had disappeared.

He complained to Qu Xiangbai: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I really want to meet this lady. She is really talented."

For the sake of the book, he went to Qingyan Town several times, but unfortunately, Li Yu was not there every time.

"I asked you to go to the capital to work with her. Are you interested?"

Is this even a question? Of course.

"I couldn't ask for more. Once I'm settled in the capital, I'll bring my family over."

"I heard that the concubine daughter of the Fan family has already married, and she married well. Aren't you afraid?"

Qu Xiangbai asked him, what a coincidence, the one who fell in love with him back then was Minister Fan's concubine's daughter.

This question made Du Liangan sneer: "Oh, I am a businessman now, and I have no intention of becoming an official. What can they do to me?"

That’s true.

"That's settled then. Actually, I now feel that doing business is more interesting than being an official."

This is true. It’s not tiring and you can make money.

The most important thing is to do what you like.

Of course, Li Yu didn't know about the conversation between Qu Xiangbai and Du Liangan. She went home in a good mood.

She is about to write her fourth novel, and this time the book will be serialized in Story Club.

Li Yu's theme has changed again this time, it's a love story.

Although it is a love story, it contains a strong sense of family and country.

The heroine is the youngest daughter of a general guarding the border. Although she grew up on the border, her parents did not allow her to practice martial arts since childhood in order to prevent her from suffering. They even spent a lot of money to hire a nanny in the capital to teach her etiquette.

She is also allowed to study. It can be said that the heroine is a noble lady who grew up in the frontier and is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Of course, this is just on the surface. She has been secretly learning martial arts. She doesn't want to marry back to the capital, she just wants to live in the border.

Of course, these are just her thoughts, and her parents and brothers would not agree.

They even arranged a marriage for her with the second son of the Marquis of Xiangyang in the capital. The heroine knew that her family was doing this for her own good.

I also planned to follow the arrangement and marry in the capital.

However, something unexpected happened just one month before her coming of age, when a traitor appeared in the border town.

Opening the city gates in the middle of the night allowed the enemy to come in, burn, kill, and loot, and half of the city's residents were slaughtered.

Even if the generals defending the city were unaware of this matter, they would still be guilty of negligence and their entire family would not survive.

Even if she could escape, the court would not forgive her father. In the end, her father asked his confidant to send her out of the city overnight.

He and his wife and son fought the enemy to the death.

In the end, only the heroine survived.

Of course, the story doesn't end here.
