Chapter 1688
Could she have expected that he would come looking for her?
That's why they prepared the contract in advance?
Shen He seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, and laughed self-deprecatingly: "It's not so much that I predicted that the Young Master Wen would come, but rather that I was full of confidence. I believed that once my Painting was released into the market, it would definitely attract Bo Le's admiration and thus find me here. Young Master Wen, since I have signed this contract with you, naturally, I have the confidence to make you earn money. "
After Shen He finished this sentence, she turned around and brought out the other follow-up updates of the?? Water Margin A
ouncement??, handed them over to Wen Zhi Zhou, and said: "This is the update for this time. In the future, you can come every ten days and I will give you an update every ten days. From now on, the stories of these two books will only be available in your bookstore. "
Hearing Shen He's words, Wen Zhi Zhou's face immediately blushed.
He knew that he was acting like a petty person.
He took the book, and at the agreed price, he took out five or two silver ingots and placed it on the table.
Shen He frowned: "I paid too much."
"It doesn't matter. The rest should be paid in advance." Wen Zhi Zhou smiled at Yanyan.
Only now did Shen He notice that Wen Zhi Zhou's face was very pretty.
In reality, she couldn't blame Shen He for not having discovered his looks at the begi
ing. It was simply because Shen He had long ago been catered to by all sorts of beauties and it was very difficult for ordinary looks to enter her eyes.
Think of He Yi Ning's looks, think of Shen Lu's looks, think of the looks of his siblings.
Thus, could others still look at it?
Directly not!
Therefore, after arriving in this world, Shen He felt that the people of this world all looked like flat maps, which meant that there was only a difference in beauty.
Now that he had resolved the big issue of survival, Shen He felt that the fifteen year old Wen Zhi Zhou in front of him had become much more pleasing to the eye.
Yes, Wen Zhi Zhou was already 15 years old this year, and had become an Elementary Scholar, thus receiving a title. However, he was worried that he would not have enough knowledge, so he didn't take the exam further. Instead, he opened a bookstore in the town based on his family's status and wealth.
Firstly, it was convenient for him to read books, and secondly, it was to win over the hearts of the people.
This was the reason why he knew that there was an extra copy of the message in the teahouse.
Since the two of them had signed the contract, some information about each other was naturally made public.
Wen Zhi Zhou was shocked that Shen He, who was only ten years old, could draw such a beautiful picture book. Shen He was also shocked that Wen Zhi Zhou, who was only fifteen years old, already knew how to win over people's hearts.
Sure enough, in the ancient times, boys and girls were relatively early to be sensible.
In his previous life, Shen He had only started to build his own team around the time he was around ten years old.
Don't forget, Shen He in her previous life was a princess of the He Family.
Most people are naive when they're twenty.
Just as Shen He and Wen Zhi Zhou were chatting, Second Uncle Wang came back with a piece of prey.
When Second Uncle Wang saw the stranger in the house, he was startled for a moment before walking in with large strides. Only after seeing that Shen He was safe and sound did he heave a sigh of relief.
"Second Uncle." Shen He smiled and greeted him: "This is the young master of Wen Jiu Clan from the town. He had just signed a contract with me and set a contract for the purchase of this painting."
Second Uncle Wang did not expect that there would actually be someone who would want Shen He's picture book. He was very happy for Shen He, but he looked at Wen Zhi Zhou warily and said: "Although Shen He is not my niece, but I am friends with her father, and I also treat her as my own daughter. Does Young Master Wen know that Shen He is already a self-supporting woman? "
The meaning behind Second Uncle Wang's words was, if you dislike Shen He being a self-supporting woman, then don't come into contact with us!
Although Wen Zhi Zhou was only fifteen years old, he had already become sensible. After hearing what was said, he immediately said, "Second Uncle, don't worry. He had already made a contract for a celebration. However, I still have some chores to attend to. I will treat you to some food another day and invite Second Uncle and Miss Shen to celebrate. "
Hearing that Wen Zhi Zhou was about to leave, Shen He did not keep him any longer and nodded: "Okay. At that time, there will be plenty of celebratory banquets! "
Wen Zhi Zhou immediately laughed: "Thank you for your auspicious words. "Farewell!"
Wen Zhi Zhou cupped his hands towards Second Uncle Wang and Shen He and left.
After they left, the Second Uncle Wang asked Shen He: "Is this person reliable?"
Shen He thought for a while, then said: "High Scholar Wen is now in charge of the academy's matters. After hearing that High Scholar Wen was noble and benevolent, it was likely that his son was not that bad. I have a contract with him, and if he defaults, he won't be able to gain anything from the High Scholar. Besides, I took out the picture book on time, and he paid for it on time. If I don't pay the bill, I won't give the new picture book. If he earns money afterwards, he won't be able to bear to split it, so it's not too late to settle the score with him again. "
Second Uncle Wang thought that this was the only way.
The Second Uncle Wang tidied up the prey a bit and said to Shen He: "Child, you're just too stubborn! I don't have any money to eat, so I won't tell you. "
Shen He only smiled.
She did it on purpose.
She wanted the whole village to see how poor she was.
If something happened in her uncle's family, it would be too much for her.
Sure enough, ever since she went back to poverty, without any money to eat, and had no choice but to go up the mountain to look for eggs, the rumors and gossip in the village had lessened by quite a bit.
These people, that's all.
Now that Shen He was holding onto the 5 taels of silver, the house could finally be repaired.
It would be enough for someone else to build a house for about 30 taels of silver.
Shen He's house, couldn't even be stopped with fifty silver coins.
This was because everyone else had their own floors. She was on the first floor, and even a layer of earth had been dug up.
The houses on the ground were all built with solid stone, so how could they not spend a lot of money?
As a result, the house was built intermittently for three months. Finally, it was completely built.
Shen He also earned a lot of money from selling the canvases, which she kept in her room.
Two days before the house was built, Second Uncle Wang specially went into the mountains to hunt for prey. He did not plan to sell it, but left it for Shen He to slaughter and entertain guests.
According to the rules of the village, every household had built a new house, and they were all going to treat the chief of the village and his relatives to a meal.
Even if it was a branch family member, they had to call their relatives over for a meal.
This meal was called the Warm Pot Rice.
If this restaurant was too shabby, people would mock them.
Shen He didn't really care about it, but Second Uncle Wang valued him a lot more, so she had helped Shen He with this matter in advance.
As soon as the new house was completed, Shen She invited the village chief to his new home to eat. He was currently with his neighbors and the Eldest Aunt family.
Villagers say abominable also abominable, but say kind also kind.
Upon hearing that Shen He's new room was treating him to a meal, all the aunts from the village came over to help him out spontaneously.
As Shen He was cooking some steamed buns on the fire, she heard Aunt Huang, who was cutting vegetables, mysteriously ask: "Shen He, your Second Uncle is so good to you, how are you going to repay him in the future?"
