Chapter Eighty-Eight: Half Points
After Jiraiya finished explaining, he disbanded on the spot, and when Mizumon and Kushina left, Jiraiya came to Mingyan and took out his bulging wallet. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Seeing the wallet, Ming Yan is like a hungry wolf seeing a lamb, he has been going crazy with poverty lately.
"Guess how much I paid?" said Jiraiya, waving his wallet and laughing.
"One hundred thousand taels?"
"Not true. ”
"Two hundred thousand taels?"
"No, guess again. ”
Jiraiya's smile at this time betrayed him deeply, it was a smile that would only appear when he was so happy that he could not appear in his bones, so Ming Yan's guess became bold, "Five hundred thousand taels?"
"Forget it, you can't guess. ”
Is it more than 500,000 taels? Ming Yan's eyes glowed green, "How much?"
Jiraiya erected the index finger and middle finger of his right hand, swayed from side to side, and the corners of his mouth set off a very exaggerated arc.
Ming Yan jumped up directly in shock, "Two million taels?!"
Zilai also smiled and nodded, "I've been idle lately, my thoughts are like springs, I can write five thousand words a day, I just finished writing the second volume of "Intimate Heaven" yesterday, and this morning I gave the original manuscript to the owner of the book club, a total of more than 200,000 words, according to the price of 1,000 words, it is 2 million taels. ”
Two million taels is not a small amount, this has to perform an S-class mission, and the S-class mission, only the upper ninja can take it, and it is very dangerous, most of them are difficult tasks such as assassinating important people and stealing confidential documents, if you are not careful, even if you are a ninja, you will be wiped out in an instant.
Two million taels can turn a penniless poor person into a rich man, enough to build a building in Konoha, eat delicacies from the mountains and seas every day, and live a rich and luxurious high-end life.
The ordinary villagers of Konoha can't earn more than two million taels in their lifetime, and if you remove one zero, you may not be able to earn two hundred thousand taels, and the meager income can only meet your daily needs.
And Zilai also stayed in the village, drinking small wine, humming a little song every day, lying on the desk and waving pen and ink, not only could he get the reward for S-class tasks at any risk.
Of course, writing a book is not as beautiful as imagined, when inspiration erupts, the author thinks like a spring, and writes hard, but there is often a situation of cardin, a card is a day, or even several days, will consume a large number of brain cells.
I know that there are 10,000 taels when I write a thousand words, but lying in front of the desk, I can't hold back a word for a long time, this kind of painful psychology can only be truly felt by doing it in person.
It's like writing an essay in the college entrance examination field, writing and writing suddenly stuck, and then not writing a word for half a day, that kind of anxious mood is more appropriate.
However, compared with going out to perform S-level tasks, writing a book is a normal person who will choose the former, of course, not everyone has the talent to write books, and creation has higher requirements for writing talent, and the acquired effort will only add to the icing on the cake, but it can't jump into the dragon gate.
Behind the two million taels, there are days and nights when Zilai racked his brains to conceive the plot and sat alone at the desk.
Recently, Jiraiya asked Ming Yan very little about writing books, because after writing so many words, he learned to conceive interesting plots, have the writing ideas of following the main line and developing side lines at the same time, and also have a good control over the future plot development.
It's only when he can't make sure about some plot trade-offs and big twists that he will discuss with Ming Yan, and Ming Yan can always give him good advice.
Therefore, the sales of the book are so good, it is inseparable from Ming Yan's help, especially in the early days of his creation, Ming Yan spared no effort to guide him, teach him writing skills, teach him suspense settings, and teach him how to portray characters......
It can be said that without Ming Yan, there would be no "Intimacy Paradise", because he would never have thought of writing books to make money, let alone the current popularity of "Intimacy Paradise".
"We have half a cent of this manuscript fee. ”
It's also a casual sentence, but it hits Ming Yan's heart.
Half points!
The whole book of "Intimacy Paradise" was written by Jiraiya alone, and he just doubled his lips and took half of the entire remuneration?
He does not deny the help he has given to Jiraiya's writing, but he believes that his contribution to "Intimacy Paradise" is not enough to get half of the remuneration, and Jiraiya is the person who has put in the most effort and deserves to be paid more.
Although he provided a lot of interesting plots, the actual writer still came from himself, and the plot was there, and it was also a kung fu to bring the vivid and interesting plot to life, which required good writing, that is, the ability to choose words and make sentences, which required continuous accumulation from the beginning.
He only wanted to wait for Zilai to get the manuscript fee, and then use a little of it to buy a few detonation charms for use, and mix some food money by the way, but he never expected that Zilai would directly share half of his manuscript salary.
Jiraiya's generous shot made Ming Yan not slow down for a long time.
"Hey, you're so happy, aren't you?" Jiraiya patted him on the shoulder.
Ming Yan hurriedly waved his hand, "Teacher Zilai, this can't be, I'll take two achievements." ”
Twenty percent of the manuscript fee is 400,000 taels, which is enough for him.
"I said half to half, not negotiable. Jiraiya directly stuffed his wallet onto Ming Yan's body, which he had prepared in advance, and there was just one million taels in it.
He knew that without Ming Yan, he would continue to be squeezed by the owner of the book club, writing a book of 1,000 words and 50 taels, how could he have the current high remuneration, so this million taels is what Ming Yan deserves.
Jiraiya's tough attitude makes Naruto can't refuse, and it's useless to refuse, Jiraiya's character is like this, and the things that are decided will not be easily changed no matter what.
Ming Yan could only put away his wallet embarrassedly, and sincerely thanked him, this money was very uncomfortable in his hand, if this was what he deserved, he didn't have to shoehorn it into him, and just went over and grabbed it, okay, but it's not.
The right is to lend it to Jiraiya, and when he makes a lot of money in the future, he will return it to Jiraiya.
However, he doesn't know when he will be able to make a lot of money, maybe he can also write a book, but writing a book requires a lot of time and energy, it will delay his cultivation, he doesn't have the strength of Zilai, let's talk about it when he has it, the first task is to seize the time to practice.
Jiraiya clapped his hands, "Let's talk about the plot direction of the third volume of "Intimacy Paradise". ”
Two figures, one tall and one short, sit on a boulder to exchange ideas and discuss the plot, looking forward to the bright future of the third volume of "Intimacy Paradise".
The warm sunlight soothed and the pores of the whole body were breathing happily.
Naruhiko never thought once that if there was no war in the Hokage world, countries would be friendly and merchants would do business everywhere, and ninjas would communicate with each other, instead of drawing their swords as soon as they met, but this was unrealistic, because no one could unify the ninja world, and no one had the power to talk to the entire ninja world......
