Chapter 42 Thoughts
"Xiao Zhuo, ...... here"
Ning Suxin sat in the car and beckoned to Fang Zhuo, who had just walked out of the gate of the community, with a smile on her face.
Fang Zhuo also smiled and hurriedly trotted over.
"Aunt Ning, I've kept you waiting. ”
Fang Zhuo said.
Ning Suxin smiled and said, "Okay, let's get in the car first, my aunt will take you to eat something delicious!"
"By the way, Xiao Zhuo, what do you want to eat? Chinese or Western food? or island cuisine?" Ning Suxin asked as she drove the car.
Fang Zhuo thought for a moment and said, "It's still Chinese food, I'm not used to eating those Western foods and any island cuisine." ”
In his previous life, Fang Zhuo was not very interested in Western food and island cuisine.
"Okay, then let's eat Chinese food!"
After a while, the two came to a very elegantly decorated Chinese restaurant.
"Xiao Zhuo, even if you let go of eating today, my aunt is happy!" Ning Suxin said with a smile on her face.
Fang Zhuo pursed his lips, "Auntie, then I'm not welcome." ”
Ning Suxin grinned, "You're welcome, your book can at least help your aunt earn tens of millions!
"Hehe, that can't be, I'm not gluttonous, how can I eat poor Aunt Ning, you are such a rich woman!" Fang Zhuo said with a smile.
"Oh, you're actually called Aunt Fuma, what about you? Aren't you also a little tyrant!"
"Let me tell you, according to my aunt's estimate, by the end of the year, the total sales of your "Dragon Family" will definitely exceed 5 million copies, and after the channel dealer returns the money, my aunt will give you your royalty as soon as possible, which is more than 10 million!"
Ning Suxin said.
Fang Zhuo laughed and said, "Then I thank Aunt Ning a lot." ”
"Hey, thank me for what, I should thank you. I estimate that the final sales of your "Dragon Family" are likely to reach the point of seven or eight million copies, the key is that your book is a long-form work, this is the first episode, as long as the follow-up can ensure the quality, I believe that it is no longer a dream to sell more than 10 million copies of a single volume!"
"Maybe your book will make it to the top five bestsellers of the year. Reaching the top of the list is not entirely out of the question. ”
In this time and space, due to the joint crackdown of publishers and related interest groups, there are very few pirated physical books, and the entire book market is much stronger than Fang Zhuo's previous life.
Basically, the top five best-selling books of the year every year have sales of more than 10 million, and even the top 10 in some years can all reach the level of 10 million.
Of course, the fact that the book market can be so hot is also related to the fact that the average income level of Chinese people in this time and space is much stronger than that of Fang Zhuo's previous life.
Without the support of a strong enough economy, it is difficult for the book market to have such a prosperous scene.
"Well, then borrow my aunt's good words. Fang Zhuo smiled slightly.
After a while, the dishes ordered by the two were served one after another.
Ning Suxin looked at Fang Zhuo and said with a smile: "Do you want to have a bottle of red wine?" We are here to celebrate today, and without wine, we always feel that something is missing." ”
Fang Zhuo hesitated for a moment, "Auntie, you came by car, are you okay drinking?"
"Well, it doesn't matter, just call a substitute driver when the time comes. Ning Suxin pursed her lips and said.
Fang Zhuo didn't say anything more, and said, "Okay, then I'll accompany Aunt Ning to drink two glasses with you." ”
"Okay! I'll let them open a bottle of red wine and bring it over. Ning Suxin responded excitedly, and immediately beckoned the waiter to come over and let him open a bottle of red wine priced at 1888.
The two of them ate and drank for more than an hour before coming out of the restaurant.
Because he was drinking red wine, and Ning Suxin was happy, he couldn't help but drink a little more when he ate just now, and he didn't feel anything before, but when he came out and was blown by the wind outside, he actually felt a little dizzy.
Ning Suxin patted her rosy cheeks, took out her mobile phone and called a substitute driver, and then said to Fang Zhuo: "Xiao Zhuo, let's go, let's go to the car and sit first." ”
"Standing here and being blown by the wind like this, the strength of the wine has come up a little. ”
"Oh, okay. Fang Zhuo hurriedly replied.
As soon as he got into the car, seeing Ning Suxin leaning directly on the back seat and closing his eyes, Fang Zhuo couldn't help but ask with concern, "Auntie, it doesn't matter to you, right?"
"Well, it's okay, it's just that the wind just blew a little, and the strength of the wine came up a little, and my head is a little dizzy at this time, so I'll just lean on it for a while." ”
Ning Suxin opened her eyes slightly and waved her hand at Fang Zhuo.
Fang Zhuo saw that Ning Suxin was just a little drunk, and it was not serious, so he nodded his head and didn't ask any more.
Not long after, Ning Suxin's mobile phone suddenly rang.
Ning Suxin obviously didn't want to move at this time, so she said to Fang Zhuo with half-open eyes: "Xiao Zhuo, you help me answer the phone, the mobile phone is in the bag, it may be that the substitute driver I called just now has arrived." ”
"Oh, okay. ”
Fang Zhuo hurriedly answered, and immediately leaned over to take her bag from Ning Suxin's other side.
However, when Fang Zhuo leaned over and reached out to take the bag, wisps of faint fragrance mixed with red wine emanated from Ning Suxin's body and drilled into his nose.
This made Fang Zhuo's heart jump slightly unconsciously, and his gaze couldn't help but sweep over Ning Suxin's delicate face with slightly closed eyes, and then swept over his upturned chest......
Suddenly, Fang Zhuo felt a little dry in his mouth, and his throat rolled unconsciously.
After all, he is a human being in two lives, and now he is strong in blood, in the face of such a scene, coupled with some alcohol stimulation, it is inevitable that there will be some thoughts.
However, he reacted immediately, quickly shook his head, exhaled secretly in his heart, and took Ning Suxin's bag.
After connecting the phone, it was indeed the substitute driver who called, and Fang Zhuo directly told the other party the specific parking location, body color, and license plate number and hung up the phone.
A moment later, a woman of about forty years old approached.
Ning Suxin specially called a female substitute driver, and it can be seen that she is very cautious in self-protection on weekdays.
"Aunt Ning, where do you live?"
After confirming the substitute driver, Fang Zhuo gave the car key to the other party from Ning Suxin's bag and asked Ning Suxin.
Ning Suxin half-opened her eyes and said, "Building B5 of Ronghe Community." ”
Hearing Ning Suxin's words, the substitute driver in front couldn't help but nod his head, signaling that he understood. The car was started immediately......
The distance between Ronghe and the community is not far, and it will be about ten minutes later.
After paying the money and letting the substitute driver leave, Fang Zhuo couldn't help but say to Ning Suxin: "Aunt Ning, it's here, let's get out of the car." ”
Hearing this, Ning Suxin opened her eyes and looked out of the car in a bit of confusion, "It's here, okay, then get out of the car." ”
"Oh yes, Xiao Zhuo, how are you going to go back later?"
After getting out of the car, Ning Suxin reacted suddenly and couldn't help asking.
Fang Zhuo smiled and said, "Hehe, it's okay, I'll just wait for a taxi, it's not far anyway." ”
"Well, that's fine. By the way, what time is it?"
Ning Suxin suddenly asked.
Fang Zhuo looked at the time and responded, "It's still early, it's not even eight o'clock." ”
"It's still so early, so you can go up and sit down for a while, and then go back later." ”
Fang Zhuo thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I haven't been to Aunt Ning's house yet." ”
"Hehe, that's just the time to be a guest at my aunt's house today. Ning Suxin said with a smile. Her alcohol had eased a lot by now.
