The two of them sat down and the tea was served. After a sip of tea, the conversation officially began.

"Mr. Xikuang is a talented person. It is also my honor to be able to cooperate with Mr. Xikuang." Xu Jieren said first, without any intention of being arrogant, but rather a little respectful.

Ning Yunxi didn't know the other party's identity, so she took a sip of tea and asked bluntly: "Please forgive the little girl for being ignorant. I don't know what business is in the old man's home, but it is related to calligraphy and painting?"

Xu Jieren smiled, not caring that the other party didn't know him, and introduced himself: "I wonder if Miss Ning has heard of Zhuolin Academy?"

"Of course, Zhuolin Academy, Qingfeng Academy and Xiading Academy are also known as the three major academies of the Daxia Kingdom. They educate countless students and can be said to be the cornerstone of the Daxia Kingdom." Ning Yunxi still knew this.

"Our Xu family is one of the founders of Zhuolin Academy and has also opened several literary shops. This time we came to cooperate with Mr. Xikuang in the hope of introducing his children's book. I had the honor of reading the contents of it, which was really vivid and interesting. Children at home liked it very much. If you can introduce it to the academy for enlightenment readings, it would be very suitable." Xu Jieren briefly introduced his identity, but in fact his identity background is more complicated, because the Xu family is considered a royal relative, and the concubine of the third prince is his granddaughter.

The third prince is Dongfang Yixuan's legitimate brother, the eldest son of the current queen, and the most popular candidate for the prince. The Xu family is naturally standing in the camp of the third prince. This time, he was fortunate to be given a book "Xiaobai's Sleeping Journey" by Dongfang Yixuan. He immediately investigated Ning Yunxi's place through various channels. He also learned from Dongfang Yixuan's close servant that Ning Yunxi was not only a talented woman with both calligraphy and painting, but also Dongfang Yixuan's life-saving benefactor, so he immediately arrived with sincerity.

There is no shortage of people who are good at judging the situation in any dynasty. The reason why Mr. Xu has the current wealth and power is inseparable from his ability to judge the situation in the future. Therefore, when facing Ning Yunxi, he was very respectful.

I have to say more here that Dongfang Yixuan has really done a lot of things for Ning Yunxi. He is afraid that Ning Yunxi will not have a reputation, and that those people will not pay attention to Ning Yunxi. While helping Ning Yunxi promote it, he also let people spread it. Ning Yunxi is his life-saving benefactor, and openly makes himself Ning Yunxi the biggest reliance. Unless he is desperate or wants to be hostile to him, no one dares to bully Ning Yunxi!

As for those hostile people, Dongfang Yixuan did not lack defense. After giving Ning Yunxi a small team of guards, he sent two groups of troops one after another to protect Ning Yunxi, as well as Ning Yunxi's family and career that Ning Yunxi cares about. He really had good intentions and deep affection.

At this moment, Dongfang Yixuan’s love for Ning Yunxi is probably because he wants to make you shine brightly and charmingly, and he also wants to protect you from peace, joy and success!

"I am naturally willing to be able to get Mr. Xu to pay so much attention. This book is written for the children, and I naturally hope that more children can read it and like it." When Ning Yunxi said this, she suddenly had an idea. If she wanted more people to see her books, selling books was just one of them. After all, some families don't have the money to buy books for their children to read, so if she has this idea, it's better to think of a way to rent books and let more people read books, not just children.

"Hahaha, that's great. Then let's talk about buying books this time. I wonder how many books can Mr. Xikuang sell and what price can he give?" Xu Jieren smiled and asked the most important question.

In fact, at this moment, outside the small hall where the two were discussing, the guests who had bid for the right to buy were waiting to know the answer, but they were not as good as Mr. Xu, so they could only be greeted by Manager He outside.

"The price of "Xiaobai's Sleeping Journey" is ten taels of silver, and your purchase price is naturally six taels per book. There are a lot of inventory. How much do you need?" Now there are ten thousand books in stock, which is almost the result of all her savings, it depends on how much the other party needs.

"Six taels per book, if that's the case, I'll get two thousand books first, is there any goods?" Xu Jieren calculated and didn't dare to get more, but for the current sales of books, two thousand books is no longer a small amount, which is probably enough for him to sell for a while.

"Sure, I have also drawn some illustrations in the book and I will give you two sets of them to use for publicity." Ning Yunxi was quite satisfied with this number, and two thousand books were 12,000 taels of silver, and the cost she spent was less than a fraction of the money, which was definitely a huge profit industry.

"Are they the paintings hanging at the entrance of the painting gallery? They are richer and more vivid than the small pictures in the book, and will definitely attract customers." The reason why Xu Jieren recognizes this book is because of these paintings, just like those children who like this book are attracted first because of these cute illustrations.

Ning Yunxi smiled. The cooperation between the two was decided. Then the other bosses were invited in and discussed the ordering. The higher the discount, the more books they ordered. The 30% off the boss ordered 1,000 books, the 20% off the boss ordered 800 books and 600 books respectively, and the 10% off the order. The 10% off the order, and the 20% off the order. The crowd added up to 20,000 taels of silver.

"Mr. Xikuang, I have a problem. You saw that you sold this book to us. So the selling price?" Boss Gu, who has the right to purchase 20% off, asked, with a tantrum in his tone, probably because he was afraid that Ning Yunxi would set the price to death.

"Of course it's up to you." Ning Yunxi's purpose of publishing the book was to make money, and no matter what the reason these people came, she would not block their way out of their wealth.

"That's good, hahaha, thank you Mr. Xikuang."

"It should."

After seeing everyone off, He Guan carefully sent the account book and the silver notes and said, "Boss, this is the account book, take a look."

"Haha, Uncle He, what's wrong with you? Are you scared?" After making money, Ning Yunxi was in a particularly beautiful mood. Seeing He Guan, who had always been steady, she couldn't help but tease her a few words.

"Oh, how can you not be scared? With so much money, little boss, you are so amazing."

"Of course, my little sister is the most amazing!" Brother Ning San held it in for a long time, and finally had the opportunity to speak.

"Haha, thank you for your hard work, Uncle He, you will give each of you a bonus of ten taels of silver. You can rest for a while on three days off."

"This relationship is good, so I will thank my boss for everyone."

At this auction, Ning Yunxi earned a total of more than 60,000 taels of silver, which was a huge sum of money for Ning Yunxi. After giving the bonus to the guys, Ning Yunxi sent the others away, drew 30,000 taels of silver notes, and said to Xuan Shi who had been following him: "Brother Xuan Shi, please find someone to send these 30,000 taels of silver notes to your prince."

Xuan Shi was stunned and said in confusion: "Miss Ning, I haven't heard from my master's orders like this." If he gave something, he would have helped him happily, but now he is giving it money, so he can't agree easily.

"Well, I didn't expect to make so much money, just treat it as a promotional fee for your prince." If it weren't for Dongfang Yixuan, how could her book be so popular? Even if it was really good, it would take more time and energy to promote and ferment.

"This..." Xuan Shi was even more afraid to accept it. His master was too late to show his performance in front of Miss Ning. How could he dare to help his master accept Miss Ning's silver notes? Will he be beaten to death by his master?

"Go, didn't your prince give orders before leaving, let you all listen to me." As soon as Ning Yunxi said this, Xuan Shi immediately shut up and obedient.

After Dongfang Yixuan returned to the capital, he entered the palace as soon as possible. His cold aura did not look like he had returned from a traveling trip at all, but like a general who had just returned from the battlefield, making people feel like he wanted to retreat.

"See Your Highness, King Xuan!" The guards and the attendants and palace maids greeted each other all the way to the door of the Imperial Study Room.

"Welcome His Highness Xuan to the palace. Your Majesty has given instructions. After you come back, just go in." The eunuch in charge of guarding the gate said respectfully.

In the capital, or in the palace, Dongfang Yixuan is a very special existence. He is the legitimate prince and has a very noble status, but he is unable to inherit the throne because of his physical illness. The reason for his physical illness has always been secretive. Therefore, when everyone looks at him, while fearing, he always has an indescribable sympathy, which is also the point that Dongfang Yixuan hates the most.

When Dongfang Yixuan walked into the imperial study, Emperor Renzhong Dongfang Xi was reading a memorial sent from the north. Among them, the northern snow-capped nations invaded the border of the Daxia Kingdom for many times. General Situ Yao, the general of the army, submitted three memorials in a row, asking the emperor to allow the troops to be sent!

"Son of my son, I will attend the father!" Dongfang Yixuan knelt down and saluted, his tone was cold and calm, and inexplicably felt a little cold and cold that belonged to Ning Yunxi.

Emperor Renzhong frowned. When he saw that his son who had not seen for many days came back, his expression did not relieve much. "Xiao Jiu is back, get up quickly. Thank you for your hard work outside these days, are you in good health?"

"Everything is fine, I'm sorry for my father." Dongfang Yixuan replied in a humble and arrogant manner. There was no compliment, no admiration, no grudge or ridicule in his tone. It was as plain as talking to a stranger.

Emperor Renzhong actually didn't like Dongfang Yixuan very much. His son has been perverse and ruthless since he was a child. Even when he was with him, he always looked gloomy and unpredictable, which made it really difficult for him to like him.

"It's good to come back. The national master said that your vitality is in the south. I wonder if you can find it?" Dongfang Yixuan went out for a trip because of the guidance of the national master, Zen Master Yizhi.

"I don't know why my son is going out this time, but I almost lost my life. I don't know whether what the national teacher said to me is a way of life or a dead end!" Dongfang Yixuan said sarcastically without hesitation. He had no objection to the national teacher. He vaguely believed that Ning Yunxi's words were his way of life, but he could not admit these things, at least not now.

If someone else dared to speak to Emperor Renzhong like this, Emperor Renzhong would have asked someone to make a slap. However, although he couldn't like this son, he was strangely not very angry. He just felt a little sad, "I have heard of your assassination. Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation."

Dongfang Yixuan narrowed his eyes and glanced at Emperor Renzhong, saying word by word: "Actually, my son is more willing to ask for an explanation by himself!" He usually dealt with his enemies himself, because no one can rely on him except himself!

Emperor Renzhong looked cold and scolded, "Don't you want to start a big killing?"

"I have never said this." But it may not be that what I mean!

Emperor Renzhong narrowed his eyes, and his slightly narrow phoenix eyes were similar to Dongfang Yixuan. "You should understand that you should not do anything recklessly, otherwise the consequences are not something you can bear."

"Why can't my son bear it?" Dongfang Yixuan raised his head and asked in a loud voice.

In the past, he was neither greedy for power nor afraid of life and death. He really had no weakness, so why fear? Of course, he is different now, but this does not need to be shown.

Dongfang Yixuan's body has been gradually recovering, but he has never revealed this news to anyone. Except for Ning Yunxi and Xuanyi, even his parents and brothers did not tell him. After all, for him, he could not be sure that the so-called parents and brothers were not his enemies!

"...Do you know something?" Emperor Renzhong looked at Dongfang Yixuan for a while, and asked in a affirmative tone.

"I heard that the Sixth Prince is thinking about his mistakes behind closed doors?" Dongfang Yixuan asked without answering a question, but when he mentioned the Sixth Prince at this time, the meaning was self-evident.

Emperor Renzhong frowned, "Do you suspect it's him? Impossible!"

"Why is it impossible?" The sixth prince Dongfang Yiqian was able to send someone to assassinate him shortly after he left the capital. If it weren't for Ning Yunxi, he might have died long ago. Later, he used a trick to expose the sixth prince's intervention in the salt tax, which made his father furious. Not only did he dismiss many officials from the sixth prince's sect, he also imprisoned the sixth prince in the mansion to think about his mistakes, but these mistakes were obviously ineffective. This man actually sent a killer to assassinate him. He really didn't know how to live or die!

"Do you have evidence?" Emperor Renzhong's expression was dim and unclear, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking.

"No, so he can still live safely!" But he can't live long! At this moment, Dongfang Yixuan's body was full of murderous aura!
