Chapter 409: Accepting Female Writers and Successive Promotions
Paradise Cafe, 2nd floor guest room.
Red Pepper and Pineapple sat in front of the computer, their fingers tapping on the keyboard rapidly, and they were working the codeword.
In the past ten hours, the two of them have updated 110 novel chapters together, and "Paradise Story City (102) - Bill Gailou" has become the most updated non-fiction novel on Huang-Wenxiao-Shuo.com today.
"Chili, I really can't move the water!"
Pineapple suddenly stopped and moved her sore hand, "I've been watering for more than 50 chapters today, and my hands are cramping." ”
Red Chili pepper smiled: "You take a break first, I'll write a few more chapters, and the number of updates today is about the same." ”
"Chili, you are so good at irrigation, you are simply the irrigation-female-king of the emperor-literary world. ”
During the chat, Pineapple has already opened the webpage of Huang-Wenxiao-Shuo.com, reading the updated novel chapters of other female-writers in Paradise Story City, and learning about the latest developments of their protagonists.
"Chili, a lot of protagonists died in Paradise Story City today. ”
Pineapple looked at the computer screen and introduced, "Among the 200 non-fiction novels, 16 non-fiction novels have been interrupted today, and 8 non-fiction novels have been announced as eunuchs, which means that there may be 24 protagonists who have encountered accidents." ”
"The protagonists of Paradise Story City are now going to PK each other, and there must be protagonists dying every day. "Since 24 of the protagonists have been killed, there are at least 12 female writers who have lost their qualifications as writers, and I don't know how many female writers will come to Mr. Bill." ”
Pineapple said: "I just took a look, and there are currently only two non-fiction novels in Paradise Story City that the protagonists are explicitly willing to take in the female-writer, one is "Bill Gailou". The other is "The White-Faced Scholar". If it were halved, there would have been six women-writers who would have come to Bill Gai. ”
"Six women-writers are no less. Allows Mr. Bill to move up six levels in a row. Red Hot Chili Peppers looked at the time, "Our chapter has been updated for ten hours. If there are female writers, it should be almost there. ”
……
Meanwhile.
In the office of the café, Liu Xing was engrossed in cultivating "Bai-Fa-Baizhong-Capture-Wave-Dragon-Claw-Hand".
He now has no beauty-woman to upgrade his salty-pig-hand, so he can only find a way to upgrade his skills.
If you can cultivate "Hundred-Hair-Hundred-Hit-Wave-Dragon-Claw-Hand" to the highest level, it will have a magical effect.
At present, the proficiency level of "Hundred-Hair-Hundred-Shot-Wave-Dragon-Claw-Hand" is only 1%, and Liu Xing naturally has to practice more.
The energy consumption of the dragon-claw-hand was extremely high, and after practicing for a while, Liu Xing's energy gauge was exhausted.
Energy must be replenished.
"Little Bone, come here. ”
Liu Xing shouted. Wang Lanlan rushed over, and Liu Xing immediately stretched out his salty-pig-hand to Wang Lanlan.
"Tick! The host's salty-pig-hand-touch-touch-touches the head of the cute little Lo-Li, and the energy is +5!"
Streams of energy were transmitted from Wang Lanlan's body, and the salty-pig-hand recovered little by little.
After a few minutes, the energy value was finally full, and Liu Xing continued to practice "Bai-Fa-Baizhong Grab-Dragon-Claw-Hand".
Another half hour passed.
"Congratulations to the host, your "Hundred-Hair-Hundred-Hit Capture-Wave-Dragon-Claw-Hand" proficiency has been increased to 2%!"
Liu Xingchang breathed a long sigh of relief, the dragon-claw-hand seemed to be difficult to practice, and he tossed for most of the day. With only 1% increase in proficiency, it obviously takes a lot of time to cultivate to the highest level.
Airplanes!
Just as he was thinking about it, Liu Xing's salty-pig-hand suddenly began to twitch again, shaking violently. It is completely impossible to suppress, and the situation is more serious than the previous times!
"What's going on? Salty-pig-hand's reaction is so strong?"
Liu Xing's heart moved, could it be that there was another beauty-woman-writer nearby?
Wrong!
Not a beauty-woman-writer!
If only there was one beauty-woman-writer. It is impossible for the salty-pig-hand to react so abnormally.
So, how many beauty-women-writers are nearby?
Didn't think about it. Liu Xing immediately left the office and went out to find the beauty.
Get out of the café. I found that the sky was already dark, and there were not many pedestrians on the streets.
Sweeping around, Liu Xing soon found three young women standing next to the flower-bush at the entrance of the café, about 24 years old, young and beautiful. They seemed to be in trouble, and there was a faint look of worry on their faces.
These three women are none other than the three women and writers of Paradise Story City - oranges, eggplants and bananas.
When they saw Liu Xing appear, the three women-writers couldn't help but feel a little nervous, and when they looked at each other, they walked in the direction of Liu Xing together.
"Hello sir!" Orange stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, does Red Chili Chili stay at this café?"
Liu Xing asked, "Are you looking for red peppers?"
The three female writers nodded at the same time, and Eggplant said, "We are good friends of Red Hot Peppers, and we want to discuss something with her." ”
Liu Xing said: "You guys have found the right place, the red peppers live in my café." I'm the owner of the café, my name is Bill Gailou, come with me. ”
"Thank you so much, Mr. Bill. ”
Under the leadership of Liu Xing, oranges, eggplants, and bananas came to the second floor of the café, and successfully met red peppers and pineapples.
After that, Liu Xing left first, and the five female writers chatted about private rooms.
in the bedroom.
"Oranges, eggplants, bananas, it's great that you're finally here!" said Red Pepper rejoicingly, "what a blessing for you! With the help of you three beauties, women, and writers, Mr. Bill's salty-pig-hand can be upgraded by three levels." ”
Tangerine said: "Speaking of which, the person who sent charcoal in the snow was Bill Gailou. If he hadn't been so quick to express his willingness to take in women-writers, we would still be living on the streets. ”
Banana reminded, "Chili, Bill Gailou has publicly expressed his willingness to take in a woman-writer, which will definitely offend the other protagonists." Without further ado, we're going to help Bill build a house upgrade with salty-pig-hands. Let him hurry up and become stronger. ”
Oranges, eggplants, pineapples, and other female-writers did not belong to Bill Gailou originally, but to the violent birds.
It's just that these women-writers are unwilling to take refuge in the violent birds. I escaped in secret.
Whoever takes in these women-writers is tantamount to openly making enemies of the protagonists such as the Violent Bird. As a result, the other male protagonists of Paradise Story City did not dare to take in these female writers at the risk, lest they get into trouble.
Bill Gailou now has three female writers, which is tantamount to a feud with the violent bird, and the two sides will inevitably fight.
"The Storm Bird could come to the door at any moment, and we must immediately upgrade Bill's salty pig hand. Orange said, "If we want to upgrade our salty-pig-hand, we must let Bilgay touch our bodies, so let's go find Bilgay now, right?"
Eggplant asked: "After seeing Bill building a building." What do we say? Do we say, 'Mr. Bill, can you please touch me with your hand?'
The women looked at each other, which was indeed a bit difficult to speak.
Red Hot Chili thought for a moment and proposed, "Mr. Bill - proficient in "Hanging Waves-Pulse Diagnosis", the three of you can pretend to be physically ill and then go to see him." When the time comes, Mr. Bill will use his salty-pig-hand hand to help you check your pulse. ”
The women-writers discussed it and felt that this method was feasible. After a brief discussion, they went back to the chairman's office on the first floor of the café and found Liu Xing.
……
in the office.
"Mr. Bill, there's something for you. Red Pepper walked in front of Liu Xing. said, "My three good sisters-sisters have been feeling a little uncomfortable recently, and they can't find the cause in the hospital. Can you help with a diagnosis?"
Liu Xing looked at the three female writers and said, "I'll take your pulse first." ”
"I'm sorry for you. Mr. Bill. ”
Tangerine was the first to walk in front of Liu Xing, and his white hand stretched out.
Liu Xing lifted the salty-pig-hand. Clasp the orange's wrist and run the "Hanging Wave-Pulse Diagnosis Technique".
"Congratulations to the host, your salty-pig-hand has reached level 13!"
Beauty-Woman is really a good thing, and it is upgraded in an instant.
After performing the "Hanging Wave-Pulse Diagnosis Technique", Liu Xing said slowly: "Ms. Tangerine, your body is actually quite healthy, but your mood is a little low, have you encountered anything unhappy recently?"
Tangerine nodded: "Hmm." I am a novelist, and recently my novel was forced to be imprisoned by the Internet, and I wrote this novel for more than three years, and suddenly I was imprisoned, and it was a little difficult to accept it. ”
Liu Xing said: "This is normal. Novels are like the children of writers, and when a child dies suddenly, how can parents not be uncomfortable? However, you are still young, and there are still many opportunities for creation in the future, so you don't have to worry too much about the eunuch's affairs. ”
Tangerine frowned: "Mr. Bill, writing is the entire source of my income. Now that the novel is too much of a prison, I don't have any income, and I'm homeless, I really don't know what to do?"
Liu Xing pretended to think about it and said, "It's better to be like this, I'll take care of you." Xiaofeng, bring a copy of the "Package-Maintenance Agreement". ”
"Okay, Mr. Lou. ”
Soon, Hua Yingxue handed a copy of the "Package-Raising Agreement" to Tangerine.
On the side, Red Pepper thought to himself: Mr. Bill has started to fool the newcomer again, this "Package-Maintenance Agreement" is useless at all, and has no legal effect at all!
Despite this, Tangerine still picked up the pen and decisively signed his name on the "Package-Breeding Agreement".
"You have signed the agreement, and from today, the package and maintenance will officially begin. Liu Xing said, "This will be your home in the future." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Bill. Tangerine said gratefully, "You're such a nice guy." ”
After Tangerine signed the agreement, Banana greeted him and also stretched out his hand in front of Liu Xing.
Liu Xing began to check the pulse.
"Congratulations to the host, your salty-hog-hand has successfully reached level 14!"
Liu Xing was quite relieved in his heart, and his hands seemed to be more full of energy.
"Banana-ma'am, you're almost identical to an orange. After diagnosing the pulse, Liu Xing asked, "Your novels have also been too eunuch recently?"
"Yes. Banana said truthfully, "My novel is too imprisoned today, and I don't have any income anymore, so I really don't know what to do." Mr. Bill, could you please take me in too?"
Liu Xing glanced at the banana and said, "Your conditions are not bad. It's basically up to my standard of care. But first, answer me a question. Why did you put your novels too much?"
Banana was stunned. Not knowing how to answer for a while, she couldn't say that her protagonist had been beaten to death. So the novel is forced to be too eunuch, right?
After thinking for a while, Banana lied and said: "The reason why I am too eunuch is because of the free coins that appeared on the novel-website-site." ”
"Free coins?" Liu Xing curious, "What free coins?"
Banana said: "In order to attract more readers, the novel-network-site provides some discounts to readers, and gives readers some reading-coins for free to order and read novels." However, the authors of these free coins do not receive money. After the advent of free coins, my novel subscriptions dropped by 44.8% in one day. My income dropped by half in an instant, and I was so devastated that I couldn't write anymore, so I put the novel in ......prison."
"I see. Liu Xing enlightened, "Banana-Madam, you didn't handle this matter properly, it's a little too impulsive." It's really not smart to put the novel too much because of the problem of free coins. We should not look at the problem so superficially, but should take a long-term view. Although after the appearance of free coins. The author's income has decreased in a short period of time, but the free coin can lead more readers who watch pirated editions to become genuine readers. As time goes by, there will be more and more readers of the genuine edition. The author's income will slowly come back, and the subscription you have lost now will be compensated for sooner or later. So, free coins are a long-term layout. The trough is temporary, but the future is bright. ”
Banana willow eyebrows are still tightly locked: "But." Watching the order-reading drop dramatically day by day, I'm really not in the mood to write. I also know that free coins are big layouts. I know that the future is bright, but I don't know if I can wait until the bright day. Because I'm about to run out of food now! I also know that I should grit my teeth and persevere, but I really can't persevere, I work hard every day to code words, but the order and reading are getting less and less day by day, and the motivation of code words is getting weaker and weaker, and finally I have to be a prisoner......
Liu Xing said: "I understand. You are still full of love for your novels, if you really have no choice, and you will not choose the eunuch, life will not be easy. Xiaofeng, get another copy of the "Package-Maintenance Agreement". ”
"Okay, Mr. Lou. ”
A few minutes later, Banana also successfully signed the "Package-Raising Agreement" and became the fifth beauty-girl rescued by Liu Xing.
After the banana signed the agreement, there was only one last beauty-woman-writer, eggplant.
"Ms. Eggplant, your novels are too prison-" Liu Xing asked.
"Hmm. Eggplant replied truthfully, and her protagonist also died at the hands of the Violent Bird.
Liu Xing asked: "Why did you put the novel eunuch because of the problem of free coins?"
Eggplant shook his head: "No." After the advent of free coins, although the subscription has dropped to 30, the difference in subscription income is not very large, because there is no subscription income. The reason why I'm too imprisoned is because I broke off the novel yesterday, and the full attendance award is gone. My subscription-reading was originally small, and now the full-attendance award is gone, and there will be no manuscript-fee this month, and the living expenses will not be settled next month, I don't know what to do, and I am not in the mood to code-word, so I am too ...... prison."
Liu Xing roughly understood, and said, "Speaking of which, you still didn't handle it yourself." A qualified novelist should be fully prepared and save more manuscripts, how can he let the novel be interrupted?
"Yes, I also regret that I didn't have a full-time award, and I didn't subscribe to it, and I wrote it in vain in a month. Eggplant pursed his lips and said, "It's better to be like male writers, they can go to the construction site to move bricks and get some living expenses to make ends meet." Like our female writers, we are miserable, we have been coding words for a long time, our body is weak, we have no work skills, and we can't find a job at all. ”
Liu Xing nodded: "In this regard, male writers do have an advantage, and moving bricks has indeed saved many lost codewriters." However, it is not right to break - or even more so after all, and you must learn this lesson, which will be very helpful for your future career as a writer. ”
Eggplant nodded again and again, and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Bill, I don't have all the time this month, and now I have no money to eat, can you do the same...... Take me in?"
Liu Xing looked at the eggplant and said, "I look at your appearance quite pleasing to the eye, and I can provide you with a package-raising-contract worth 10 million." You have to promise me one condition, though. In the future, if you open a new book, you can't stop it, and you can't be too eunuch, even if you have free coins. You always remember that darkness is short-lived and the future is bright. Only those who can grit their teeth and survive the trough can become the ultimate winner. ”
Eggplant nodded: "Well, I see." ”
"Xiaofeng, get a "Package-Breeding Agreement" for eggplant. ”
"Okay, Mr. Lou. ”
As a result, Liu Xing's sixth contract, worth tens of millions, appeared in front of Eggplant, and Eggplant signed his name without hesitation.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Bill, you are such a wonderful person. Eggplant said happily, "If I open a new book in the future, I will definitely write you as the hero of the new book." ”
"Don't be so polite. ”
Liu Xing said with a smile, and when he finished speaking, his brows furrowed, and he always felt that something was wrong?
What is the most important thing that seems to be overlooked?
"Oh-"
Liu Xing had a flash of inspiration, and then he finally remembered.
It turns out that I haven't touched the eggplant yet!
I just patronized the signing of the "Package-Maintenance Agreement", and almost forgot about the business.
"Eggplant, your face-color doesn't seem to be very good. Liu Xing said suddenly.
Eggplant understood and cooperated: "Maybe it's because I stay up late every day to write." Mr. Bill, why don't you diagnose it for me?"
Liu Xing nodded.
The eggplant rolled up its cuffs, and its white hand reached out to Liu Xing.
Salty-pig-hand moved, and touched-touched.
"Congratulations to the host, your salty-pig-hand has successfully reached level 15!"
"Congratulations to the host, your salty-hog-hand has gained a new skill!"
