At the end of April, Sun Quan looked at the monthly ticket ranking of his book "My Decathlon" on the website.

In April, he updated two chapters almost every day, and he didn't send out a single chapter to ask for a monthly pass, so he was mentally prepared for this month's monthly pass ranking, knowing that the ranking would definitely not be high.

He first looked at the monthly ticket list of the city classification.

"My Decathlon" ranked fourth.

Although he had been mentally prepared, he was still a little disappointed when he saw that the urban classification had slipped to fourth.

"My Big Star Girlfriend", which had been suppressed by his book for several months, finally raised its eyebrows, and this ranked second, only below Ghost Dance's "Evil Qi".

Looking at the overall list of monthly passes, it has slipped to 47th.

Narrowly missed out of the top 50.

This time, he stared at the ranking for a while before closing the website, needless to say, he also knew that his manuscript fee in April would definitely drop a lot.

Is it worth it?

In order to prepare a copy of "The Rings of the Immortal Dragon", it affected the income of "My Decathlon", is it worth it?

He wasn't sure.

Because if after the release of "The Rings of the Immortal Dragon", the results are not as good as his hesitation, or even as good as his current "My Decathlon", then ...... It shouldn't be worth it.

But if the results of "Immortal Dragon Ring" are really as he expected, performing better than "My Decathlon" and having a better reputation, then it must be worth it!

And for him, all this is unknown until "The Rings of the Immortal Dragon" is actually published, and the original "The Rings of the Immortals" has a good reputation, at least for readers who like the book, the reputation is first-class.

But for those who don't like this book, this book is too poisonous! The male protagonist is always dying and changing.

Achievements in subscriptions...... It's not too much, but if you compare it with those popular works, it's an absolute hit.

It's such a work, and he hasn't started writing it yet, but the outline that has been prepared so far has long been beyond sight compared to the original version in his previous life.

For some readers, the biggest poison point of this book, the hero, always hangs up on this, and Sun Quan has made changes to eliminate this poison.

The background of the story has also been expanded many times.

Some of the characters in the story have been deleted and some have been added.

The entire cultivation system has also been changed.

It can be said that in addition to the core idea of this book, everything else that can be changed has been completely changed in the outline part, so that when his new version of "The Rings of the Immortal Dragon" is officially written, compared with the original version, it will be two books that are unrecognizable.

Therefore, Sun Quan is unable to make an accurate judgment on the prospects of this book.

His intuition told him that the results of the new version should be much better than the original, after all, he deleted and changed the poisonous points in the original version that he knew, and there was no one left.

However, in terms of story background, character setting, cultivation system and story line, it has been comprehensively improved, and the successful elements of some popular works in memory have been integrated.

But how much better will the new version be than the original?

It's a gamble!

If you win, everyone will be happy.

If you lose the bet, it can show a problem: the road of his works before his rebirth will not work.

This will directly affect his confidence in writing in the future, and at that time, he may face a situation that is really a dead end.

……

May 1, M City, sunny.

It's another holiday, Labor Day.

When Sun Quan went downstairs in the morning, he happened to see Dong Chuan moving buckets of cooked yellow braised chicken, yellow braised pork ribs and yellow braised pork knuckles from the tricycle.

What kind of barrel is the barrel......? No, it is a stainless steel vat, the kind that can hold at least dozens of catties of things in a bucket, which is commonly used in hotel kitchens.

Seeing him carrying outside the door alone, Sun Quan, who was about to go to wash, hurriedly trotted over and said with a smile: "Look at your struggling appearance, there are a lot of goods in the bucket today?"

Dong Chuan carried a large bucket into the store, and laughed when he heard the words, "It's not! Lao Kuang said, today is May Day, the school is not in class, there may be more students who come out to eat, and I was asked to prepare more goods last night!"

Sun Quan realized that today was May Day, walked over and opened the lid of a bucket and looked at it, most of the barrel was half a bucket of burned yellow braised pork ribs, he smiled, covered the lid of the bucket, and moved it away.

When he moved the bucket into the store, he was thinking: After April, my manuscript fee must be missing, how much can I earn from the yellow stewed chicken?

Thinking so, when Dong Chuan finished moving the last bucket of yellow braised pork hands, returned to the tricycle outside the door, and was about to drive away, Sun Quan stepped forward and called out to him, "Dabao!

"What's the matter, I've got a job!"

Although Dong Chuan said that he was still alive, he did not leave.

Sun Quan handed him a cigarette, lit one himself, took a puff of the cigarette, and asked, "Dabao, I haven't been looking at the new store recently, how is the business over there lately?"

"Didn't Lao Kuang report to you?" Dong Chuan was a little surprised.

Sun Quan smiled and shook his head slightly, "Not yet!" He has called me several times recently, all of them are talking about the preparations of the other two branches, and now I am very busy every day, and he is also very busy, so when I talk on the phone, I mainly talk about the other two branches. ”

Dong Chuan nodded, "Well, that's right! Lao Kuang and Luo Na have been really busy recently, they both go out early and return late, it's only been April, and the two of them have tanned, can you believe it?"

"Oh, really? They're both out there looking for a branch to use?"

"Pretty much! A few days ago, yes, haven't the two new stores been found recently? They are busy doing decoration work, and some other miscellaneous work, and sometimes when they see me idle, they even send me a little work!"

"Oh, that'......."

Sun Quan groaned slightly, thought about it and asked, "Then tell me how is the recent business in the new store? Is it better than at the beginning? Or is it worse?"

Dong Chuan laughed, "Heh, of course it's better! I don't believe you come with me now, just stay there this morning, make sure you can see the most real situation, don't worry! Business is good! Although our shop is not big and sells few things, which of the three dishes we sell is not of good quality and low price? Have you not counted the things you made yourself?"

Seeing Dong Chuan say this, Sun Quan put his mind at ease and patted him on the shoulder, "Okay! Then you go and get busy! Come to me when you have time to come back, let's have a few drinks!"

"If you're done asking, I'll go back and earn you money as soon as possible, right?

Dong Chuan joked with a smile, waved his hand, and drove away.

……

It's early 10 a.m.

Sun Quan refreshed the author's background again, and finally found out the amount of his manuscript fee in April, as he expected, the number of his manuscript fee in April was indeed much less than that of the previous two months.

Only.

You must know that his manuscript fee in February is only a dozen yuan, and the pre-tax manuscript fee is 50,000 yuan.

And his pre-tax manuscript fee for March was also more than 46,600.

In April, the number of manuscript fees was directly reduced by more than 10,000 yuan.

Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time and really found that there was so much missing, Sun Quan still couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He still knows in his heart that this is just the beginning, his manuscript fee in April is only more than 10,000 yuan less, and if his update speed is still like that in two chapters a day in May, his manuscript fee figure in May will definitely continue to fall, and even in June and July, it will continue to fall.

It's a given!

Such a fact was in front of him, and he could not help but feel a sense of urgency.

He wants to complete the outline of "The Rings of the Immortal Dragon" as soon as possible, start writing the main part as soon as possible, and then send the "The Rings of the Immortal Dragon" to the starting point as soon as possible, and he wants to make up for the loss of manuscript fees on the side of "My Decathlon" as soon as possible.

This sense of urgency turned into an impulse in his heart.

But his reason is still there, and his reason tells him that the more times like this, the more he must be steady, and he must not mess up!

You must be steady, and you must make the outline perfect before you can start writing the main text.

This is not the time to be quick!

After settling down and spending half an hour adjusting his state, he started today's code words, still according to the original plan, writing "My Decathlon" during the day and continuing to write the outline of "Immortal Dragon Ring" at night.

And so it went on for three days.

On the morning of May 4, Kuang Longfei finally took the account books of the two stores to report to Sun Quan the income of the two yellow braised chicken shops in April.

When he came to Sun Quan's small room on the second floor and handed the two account books to Sun Quan, Kuang Longfei explained: "After all, Luo Na and I are not professional accountants, so it took a little more time to count last month's profits and expenses, and it was not done until last night, so I didn't come to report to you until today! ”

Sun Quan opened the first ledger and saw a set of data.

When I opened the second ledger, I saw a set of data.

He smiled slightly bitterly, Kuang Longfei and Luo Na are not professional accountants, am I?

He simply turned to the last page of the second account book, and at the same time happened to hear Kuang Longfei say: "This is the account book of the old store, and the net profit in April is about 13,000." ”

Sun Quan also happened to see the net profit figure written on the last page of the ledger: 13,728 yuan.

He smiled and flipped through another ledger.

Kuang Longfei introduced in a timely manner: "This is the account book of the No. 1 branch, and the net profit in April is about more than 31,000!"

Hearing this, Sun Quan was taken aback, "So many?"

He stared at the specific number on the ledger, 31,446 yuan.

In other words, the net profit of the two stores under his name now in April totaled more than 40,000?

not only made up for the lack of money in his manuscript fee, but also had a surplus of 20,000 or 30,000?

Kuang Longfei said with a smile: "Well, it's quite a lot, but it's normal, Fulin Food City, after all, the old street close to our city, there are too many people who travel there every day, and these people who come to travel, when they eat, don't care about the price at all, hmm, do you remember? At the beginning of the month, I told you that I want to raise the price of each dish by two yuan, heh, those tourists really don't care!"

After a pause, he said, "Oh, by the way, we have registered the company now, so according to the regulations, we should hire a professional accountant and cashier!"
