"How are you doing if you tear up a broken book that nobody cares about?" Wang ziqiao also broke out and replied with a stem in his neck.
Li forgot to worry and despised him: "nobody cares? Are you qualified to evaluate my book?"
"What can I say? There are so many novels that are difficult to be elegant in the bookstore. Li forget worry, are you going to sell them as wiping paper?" Prince Qiao mocked, pointing to the pile of romance of the Three Kingdoms in the bookstore.
"Ha ha, why don't I give you copper money and sell these books to me as waste paper. It's OK to burn a fire." Cui Daogu also joked.
Lu Siyang and Cui Hong also laughed and nodded.
Both Ma Zhou and Yan Liben were so angry with the dandies of this family that they almost ran away. It was a shame to them to humiliate Li forgetful.
However, Li forgot to worry, but stopped the two people who ran away. They just laughed contemptuously at the ridicule of Wang ziqiao and others: "since you keep saying that no one cares about a book, it's better to make a gambling appointment?"
"Bet about? What do you want to bet?" as soon as I heard the word bet about, Wang ziqiao suddenly had a bad feeling.
Whether in Yi temple or in the brothel of Hualou in pingkang square, they all lost two bets with Li forgetful worry.
Wang ziqiao's face was even more ugly. He remembered his bet with Li forgetful and said he would give up on him.
Li forgot to worry and took a deep look at Prince Qiao: "just bet on this book of the romance of the Three Kingdoms. How many copies can you sell in ten days, how about it?"
"OK, let's bet on your book. It can't sell 10000 copies in ten days. How dare you bet?" when Li forgets to worry, Prince Qiao's eyes brightened and immediately put forward a gambling condition that is extremely difficult and impossible to complete.
After he said that, Cui Daogu laughed and said, "yes, we'll bet that you can't sell 10000 copies of this broken book in ten days. How, Huxian man, dare you bet?"
Ma Zhou couldn't help but be anxious: "do you dare to talk nonsense like this? How is it possible to sell 10000 copies a day?"
"Ha ha, what's our business? Isn't Huxian man going to bet on the sales of his book? Our conditions are like this. It's your business to dare to bet! If I dare not bet, I don't have time to grind my teeth with you. I'll leave now!"
Wang ziqiao thought he had a good plan, grabbed Li forgetful's painful foot, ridiculed Ma Zhou, and was ready to greet several people to leave.
"Wait! You haven't said what the bet is!" Li forgot to worry, but suddenly shouted to them.
"What bet?" Prince Joe didn't understand what Li forgot to worry about.
Li forgot to worry and asked, "don't you want to bet that I can't sell 10000 books in ten days? Then tell me what your bet is? If you sell it, what will you do?"
"That's impossible!"
"It's impossible. Won't it be easier for you to win? Why, don't you dare to gamble with me?" Li forgets worry and continues to say exciting words.
"Why don't you dare to bet? If you can sell 10000 copies of this broken book in ten days, we... We will lose you ten thousand gold. What can we do?" Wang ziqiao was excited by Li forgetting his worries and blurted out.
Li forgot to worry but shook his head: "ten thousand gold? Hehe, can you take it out? It's better to bet a thousand liang of gold. How about it? Can you afford to bet a thousand liang of gold, the legitimate son of a noble family with five surnames and seven hopes?"
Thousand taels of gold? That's six thousand copper coins, six million!
The four of Wang ziqiao looked at each other. Although they were the legitimate sons of the aristocratic family, they really couldn't afford such a large sum of money.
The family is rich, but it doesn't mean they have money in their hands.
However, when it comes to this, how are they willing to let go? What's more, in the view of Prince Joe, they can't lose at all.
Ten days is ten days.
They don't believe that selling 10000 books, let alone ten days, is a year.
After all, Datang is not a future generation. All the bookstores in the east city of Chang'an may not be able to sell 10000 volumes in a year.
Although Li Qieyou's novel looks strange and not a common volume, so what?
"Huxian man, don't talk nonsense, can you dare to make a written note and make a bet?" Wang ziqiao and others are sure that they will win or lose, so they are naturally fearless.
Li forgot his worries and smiled: "ha ha, just so, so that some people won't admit when they lose the bet. Master Sun Fang, please get us a pen and paper."
"Well... Huxian man, do you really want to gamble with them? Let's forget it? Why bother to argue with each other?" leader Sun hesitated for a moment and began to persuade.
He didn't want Li to lose such a large sum of money in order to help him get ahead. Even sun Fang thought it was absolutely impossible for Li to win.
It's incredible to sell 10000 books in ten days.
To sign such a bet, there is no other possibility except to lose 1000 liang of gold.
Ma Zhou and Yan Liben were also shocked by Li's words. Although they thought the romance of the Three Kingdoms was a good historical vernacular novel, it was impossible to sell 10000 copies in ten days.
"Teacher..." Ma Zhou tried to persuade, but Li forgot to worry and stopped him.
"Master Sun, I can only claim that you go and get the pen and ink."
Seeing that Li forgot his worries and had a firm attitude, Master Sun Fang could only shake his head and took the paper and pen according to his instructions.
Li forgot to worry and wrote down two bets on the paper, and signed them.
"Well, it's your turn to draw your autograph." Li forgot to worry, put down his pen, raised his eyebrows and looked at Prince Qiao.
Wang ziqiao and Cui Daogu were also a little silly. They didn't expect that Li forget you actually agreed to such an absurd bet. Is he really confident that he will sell 10000 books in ten days?
How is this possible?
In the eyes of the Tang people, the content of this gambling agreement is almost the same as that of future generations to paint the Great Wall within ten days.
"Bet! I don't believe he can win!" Prince Joe snorted coldly, raised his pen and wrote his name on the bet.
Cui Daogu also looked at each other, nodded one after another and signed the bet.
With a smile, Li forgot to worry, picked up a gambling appointment, dried the ink and put it away.
"That's good. The contract is in black and white. Then we'll see the winner in ten days. Remember, prepare the gold, or I'll directly ask the saint to ask your family for gambling debts for me."
Wang ziqiao and others just sneered: "Huxian man, you'd better prepare the gold yourself. After ten days, you can't take out the gold. Be careful, I'll wait for Taiji palace to file a lawsuit!"
After a few people finished, they didn't stay much. They put away the gambling appointment, greeted the episode, and the crowd retreated like a tide.
"Huxian man, what should I do? Laojiu... Alas, it's Laojiu who has implicated Huxian man." leader Sun Fang bowed to Li forgetful in fear.
Li forgot to worry and waved his hand: "it doesn't matter. I have my own way."
