041 is hard to buy with money, and it is good to have a heart
Lin Xiao had already seen them, so he greeted them, "A few people, please." She didn't ask the other party why she came, and since she came, the purpose was very clear.
Xu Lang was originally lying on the kang, but he had already sat up when he heard someone coming.
"Master Xu, let's meet again." The shopkeeper was a little displeased, he came to the door in person, and Xu Lang was still holding the shelf. "I heard that Xu Gongzi is sick, looking at it like this, it seems to be very good." Xu Lang is now full of red light, and he really can't see that he is sick.
Xu Lang was just about to get up to salute, but Lin Xiao stopped him over there, "The bone is broken, can you still do it?" Considering that there were outsiders, her tone was already very good, but she still surprised the visitors.
Xu Lang sneered, "I'm sorry, Xu Lang is injured and it's inconvenient to get up." ”
"Ah, it's okay, it's us who bother." The shopkeeper looked at the state of the two and found that it was not quite the same as he imagined. In this house, it seems that Miss Lin is in charge.
"Sit." Lin Xiao beckoned people to sit down and said directly: "There is no tea at home, I'm sorry, there is only mung bean soup to relieve the heat." As he spoke, he brought two bowls of mung bean soup into the house. Although she occasionally has a bad temper, she still understands the etiquette she should have.
The shopkeeper was polite again, and then officially introduced: "This is the owner of our Wenyuan Book Store, who happened to come to our fish and grain county, and knew Miss Lin's conditions, so he came to take a look." ”
"Far down there." Fang Wenyuan looks rich, and he has a smiling Buddha-like face, which makes it easy for people to have a good impression. "Reading Miss Lin's book made me lose control and couldn't wait to read it. We don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, I can agree to the girl's 30% profit from this book, but I have one condition. "Businessmen pursue profits, even if Fang Wenyuan is half a scholar, he still likes to calculate.
Lin Xiao seemed to have a plan for this, and made a "please" gesture.
Fang Wenyuan was stunned for a moment, as if he felt that the other party should bargain.
"In the future, if Miss Fanlin has any good novels, she will sell them to us Wenyuan Books, and we will make this clear." People who can write such a strange book will bring them more surprises in the future.
Lin Xiao smiled and said with some sarcasm: "What Boss Fang said is good, is it possible that if you give me a tael of silver, I will sell it to you?" Shall I not pay for my death? "Is she really a fool to agree to this kind of overlord clause?
"This ......" Fang Wenyuan is not embarrassed, girl, even if this is the case, you don't have to say it so clearly. He quickly collected his thoughts and said with a smile: "It's Fang Mou's lack of consideration, Miss Lin doesn't have to worry about the price, as long as it's a good book, the price is fair." ”
If you say it, you don't say it, and the businessman really thinks a lot.
Lin Xiao glanced at him, "I'm sorry, I won't agree to this kind of overlord clause." "Selling yourself is a fool's job.
Fang Wenyuan was a little embarrassed, and the shopkeeper hurriedly explained: "I think Miss Lin has misunderstood, what our owner means ......"
"There's no misunderstanding, no misunderstanding." Xu Lang took over, "We don't dare to guarantee that we will be able to create something like a novel. Isn't it right now that we want to cooperate with this "Tears of Infatuation" (Lin Xiao's bloody name), if the cooperation is pleasant, if there is a new book in the future, we will naturally consider Wenyuan Books. In other words, if the cooperation is not pleasant, then it is a matter of no discussion.
Compared with Lin Xiao, a rookie with almost no social experience, Xu Lang's speech can be said to be leaky. "Of course, a big bookseller like Wenyuan Book is also our first choice." secretly praised the other party and clarified his own interests, although Xu Lang had a gentle attitude, he didn't let it go at all.
Lin Xiao secretly shouted, "Beautiful!" ”
Xu Lang really didn't buy this product in vain, look at this black-bellied one, tsk, I knew that this deal should have been negotiated by him.
Thinking of Xu Lang's injury again, she was depressed again.
Before the strength is reached, she should keep a low profile. Although Xu Lang didn't say anything, Lin Xiao also blamed himself recently, if it weren't for her, Xu Lang wouldn't have been hurt at all. So she worked hard to make money, and just wanted Xu Lang to do her best to restore her burden.
The shopkeeper's face changed, what he wanted to say, it was inconvenient in front of the owner after all. He sighed secretly, thinking that he had looked down on these two, but he didn't expect to look away. How old are they? As a teenager, everyone understands that although the girl does not seem to be as mature as this young man, her courage and bearing should not be underestimated.
Where the hell did these two demons come out?
Fang Wenyuan didn't have too much embarrassment, he was in business, he had encountered a lot of this kind of thing. "Hehe, Little Brother Xu has to remember today's promise, and if there are good books in the future, we must follow Wenyuan's books." He glanced at the stack of papers placed on the kang, and his eyes lit up, "You two have finished writing "Infatuated Tears"?" He couldn't wait to see it.
"It's not." Since everyone agreed, Xu Lang would not continue to entangle, and said with a smile: "It's just a strange novel I wrote in my spare time." Speaking of which, it was really a boring one he wrote, with a small number of words, only about 2,000 words, but it was much better than the novels of this era.
Fang Wenyuan's small eyes became brighter and brighter, "Can you show me?" "No one knows that his favorite thing in his life is the strange novel.
"This ...... Absolutely. The business had just been negotiated, and Xu Lang didn't want to do too much, so he showed him the first few pages.
This Fang Wen thanked him from afar, and he really read it with relish, with some exaggerated expressions from time to time, and Lin Xiao, who was watching it, silently complained: Uncle, how old are you, put away those cute points.
A few pages, but after reading it in a moment, Fang Wenyuan looked at Xu Lang with a blank look, the meaning was self-evident.
Xu Lang subconsciously wanted to send the rest over, but after thinking about it...... "Hehe, sorry, this is not finished yet." "What you can't get always seems to be the best. The Xu family has studied medicine for generations but has an ancestral motto that they are not allowed to practice medicine, and the Xu family is low-key, and there are businesses in all walks of life. As the heir of the Xu family, Xu Lang has been running since elementary school. In this regard, Fang Wen is far behind. "If Boss Fang likes it, Xu Lang will be the first to show it to you after he writes it."
"It's a deal." Fang Wenyuan didn't seem to be at ease, thought about it and said simply, "How much are you going to write this book?" ”
Xu Lang thought for a while, "It's just an ordinary short story, a few thousand words." "He deliberately didn't say the exact number.
"Twenty taels of silver, I bought it." Fang Wenyuan's bid is not high. You must know that in this era, an ordinary book sells for seven or eight taels of silver, and he gives twenty taels at once, which is indeed not low.
"Thirty taels, I'll send the book to Wenyuan Book Store tomorrow." Xu Lang smiled and spoke, looking determined.
Fang Wenyuan gritted his teeth, "Okay, a word is a certainty." He was really afraid that Xu Lang would put forward the idea of sharing, and he felt that it was worth it to buy this book so quickly. After all, it's hard to buy money if you have it.
Xu Lang breathed a sigh of relief, and finally didn't have to eat soft rice.
