In the evening, a small battery tricycle drove to the door of the sword qi and stopped, riding a small tricycle is an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, combing a twisted braid hanging down on her chest, her appearance is acceptable, and her upper body is a pure white round-neck overalls, and there are a few words on the chest and back of the overalls - good taste restaurant.

And in the carriage behind her, there were some boxed lunches neatly arranged, and it was obvious that she was here to deliver food.

Fan Long is responsible for the logistics of all the people with sword qi, and the daily meals are naturally under his control, he originally wanted to find an aunt who cooks for everyone, but he didn't find a suitable one for a while, so he reached an agreement with the nearby good taste restaurant, and the good taste restaurant will deliver food to the sword qi regularly and quantitatively every day according to the recipes he provides, and the price is it! Naturally, there will be some discounts.

As soon as the car of the girl delivering the food stopped, she honked the horn twice in a row, and shouted with a sunny smile: "Hey! Aaron! Aaron! It's time for your dinner! ”

"Hey! It's coming, it's coming! ”

Fan Long, who was close to the door at the desk, quickly agreed, and soon came out of it with a smile on his face.

"Sister Hua! I'm two minutes late today! I'm going to deduct your money! ”

Fan Long is already very familiar with this girl who delivers food every day, and he jokes with her as soon as he opens his mouth.

"You dare!"

"Sister Hua", whose full name is Zheng Xiaohua, glared at Fan Long when she heard this, and she had already gotten out of the car to bring the meal prepared by Youjian Qi, as well as soup.

"I dare! Who made you late! I'm hungry and thin! ”

Fan Long was arguing with her, but he had already helped Zheng Xiaohua take the lunch box with both hands, and when the meals were brought into the company, Fan Long sent Zheng Xiaohua out, and signed the account book that Zheng Xiaohua took out When he returned to the company, as usual, the company had already opened the lid of the meal, and you and I went to eat it one by one. The remaining meal belonged to Fan Long.

Tonight's dinner seems to be no different from usual, the food is still of that grade, the people who eat are still the same people, everyone is eating around the folding table that has just been set up, but it may be because the subscription data of the ten books on the shelf last night is not very good, and there are a lot fewer voices talking and laughing at the dinner table tonight.

When the meal was almost eaten, Fang Bing suddenly stopped his chopsticks and said to Wang Qin, who was eating with his head down, "Mr. Wang! Can we stop working overtime from today? ”

Wang Qin was stunned, stopped his chopsticks and slowly raised his head. Slowly chewing the food in his mouth, he first looked at Fang Bing, who had a serious look, and then slowly looked at the faces of the others.

Fan Long wanted to speak and stopped, Xi Jian glanced at Fang Bing, then at the others, did not speak and lowered his head and continued to eat, Xu Shun and Jia Hongwei, who were sitting next to Fang Bing, also slowed down their eating speed significantly, and their eyes were paying attention back and forth on the faces of Fang Bing and Wang Qin.

Su Junyu took a napkin from the table and wiped her mouth gently, Yu Xiaona lowered her head as if continuing to eat. Out of the corner of his eye, he was paying attention to the scene.

"Why?" Wang Qin was silent and asked. There was not much expression on his face, and his expression was faint.

Fang Bing seemed to be a little unable to stand Wang Qin's indifferent gaze, and glanced left and right at Xu Shun and Jia Hongwei. There were other people, seeing that everyone did not condemn him, he seemed to have the courage again, and looked at Wang Qin and said, "Why? Mr. Wang! It's normal not to work overtime, right? We used to work overtime every day. It's because we have a lot of work to do, to maintain the operation of the website, and to develop a new version of the website. Now that we've done all this work, why do we have to work overtime every day? Although there is overtime pay, we are both young and we also need a private life! Take me for example! Two days ago my family called again to ask when I was getting married, but I still haven't had a girlfriend yet......"

A few snickerers rang out at the scene, making the serious atmosphere of the scene even more eerie.

Wang Qin noticed that several people had smiles on their faces, and Jia Hongwei and Yu Xiaona seemed to have a share of the laughter just now.

Jia Hongwei suddenly interjected: "Yes, Mr. Wang!" I'm still single. ”

After speaking, he looked at Xu Shun, Fang Bing also looked at Xu Shun, under the gaze of the two, Xu Shun smiled embarrassedly, raised his right hand slightly, and said to Wang Qin: "Mr. Wang!" I, hehe, I'm still single! However, if the company needs it, it's no problem for me to continue working overtime! ”

As soon as Xu Shun said this, Fang Bing and Jia Hongwei's faces changed on the spot, it was obvious that this was not the same rhythm as they had discussed before, and the others also glanced at Xu Shun with different eyes, Wang Qin too, and Xu Shun met everyone's eyes and continued to smile.

Wang Qin glanced at Xu Shun deeply, and just when everyone thought that he was going to veto Fang Bing and Jia Hongwei's request, Wang Qin lowered his head and pulled his own food with chopsticks, and said lightly: "Okay!" Since whether or not to work overtime is a lifelong matter for you, then, from tonight onwards, it is up to everyone to work overtime or not! No more insistence! ”

There was a slight commotion at the scene, Fang Bing and Jia Hongwei showed joy on their faces, Yu Xiaona raised her head a little happily, Su Junyu was a little stunned, and the smile on Xu Shun's face froze for a moment, and then returned to his original smile.

Fan Long didn't say anything from beginning to end, Zhao Yan had explained to him that he only needed to be in charge of logistics, and he didn't need to express his opinion on other things.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang!" Fang Bing thanked Wang Qin with a smile, and Wang Qin smiled slightly.

After a while, Fang Bing and Jia Hongwei sped up and finished eating the boxed lunch, then quickly cleaned up the workbench and left work.

In fact, everyone present tonight knew that the main reason why Fang Bing didn't want to work overtime from now on was not the reason he and Jia Hongwei said, but because the ten books on the shelves last night didn't have many subscribers, and they no longer had hope for a future with sword energy.

They all know the financial situation of the sword qi.

If Fang Bing and Jia Hongwei were a little older and had a family and a room, they might not have proposed to Wang Qin in public that they didn't want to work overtime anymore like they did tonight, but they are only young people in their early twenties, and they always feel that there are countless possibilities in their lives, even if they lose this job, they can find a better job at any time if they go out with their skills.

Not long after, Yu Xiaona also quietly left.

There was already a small number of people in the sword qi office area, and only Wang Qin, Xi Jian, Su Junyu, Xu Shun and Fan Long remained.

Wang Qin returned to his office, and Xi Jian paced into Wang Qin's office with a freshly lit cigarette in his hand, so the office area outside seemed even emptier.

Wang Qin's office.

Xi Jian leaned back on the sofa in silence, took a puff of cigarette, and the smoke he exhaled was like a sigh.

"People's hearts are scattered!" He said suddenly.

"I know!" Wang Qin sat back at the desk and refreshed the web page on the computer, still looking calm.

"If we weren't friends, I should be off work at this time!" Xi Jian said again.

Wang Qin smiled faintly, looked at him, and said, "Zhao Yan hasn't given up yet!" ”

Xi Jian raised his eyebrows.

"So what? Sometimes it's not just a matter of persistence! Didn't Jin Jianhu last long enough before? Don't you feel a lot like the situation now and a few months ago? At that time, the hearts of the people were scattered as they are now! ”

Wang Qin was silent, in fact, he didn't have much confidence, think about the current situation, the company's financial resources, and Zhao Yan's age...... I don't seem to see a turning point.

After the ten books were put on the shelves last night, there were ten more books on the Golden Sword Unsheath List, and these ten books were also picked out from the library, according to the results on the reward list, the popularity was worse than the ten books on the shelves last night, and the ten books on the shelves last night were not subscribed, is this second batch worth hoping for?

……

In the cafeteria of Hanlin College, Zhao Yan was eating, Zhang Peng, Li Yan, and Nian Xiaobai were sitting next to him, Zhao Yan suddenly received a call from Fan Long, and after listening to what Fan Long told him on the phone, Zhao Yan's temples jumped, with his temper, he wanted to expel those two people immediately, but reason told him that he couldn't do it now!

At this time, once those two people are expelled, those two people will definitely expose negative news about sword qi everywhere on the Internet, which will make those who sing and decline have sword qi find more reasons to sing down, and most importantly - it will affect the confidence of the authors, as well as the trust of readers!

There may be some readers who are hesitant to become a member of the sword qi and recharge the account, but if you hear that you sword qi fired two employees at this time, and hear more negative news about the sword qi, those readers are likely to think that the payment system with sword qi will fail again, and then hold the psychology of not wasting money, and dispel the idea of recharging in the sword qi account.

"Zhao Yan! What's wrong? ”

Zhang Peng noticed Zhao Yan's suddenly deteriorating face and asked with concern.

Li Yan and Nian Xiaobai's eyes also looked over.

Zhao Yan shook his head slightly and said calmly: "It's okay!" ”

……

After returning to the dormitory, Zhao Yan made a phone call to Wang Qin.

"Editor-in-Chief Wang! Put all the ten books on the shelves last night in red font on the bulletin board at the top of the homepage of the website! To make sure you just click on the title of the book on the bulletin board, you can access every page of the book on the shelf last night! As soon as possible! Let's do it tonight! ”

"Oh? Oh good! ”

Wang Qin didn't ask why this time, because Zhao Yan's intention was already obvious, this was to increase the intensity of publicity, no matter what, such a large-scale propaganda must have a certain effect.

After making the call, Zhao Yan turned on his computer, logged in to the background of the author with sword energy, and saw that the number of subscribers to the first chapter of his book "The Great Adult Sword of Rebirth" had exceeded 600, which was far lower than his own expectations, you must know that the online and offline sales of this book in Kyushu Reading, the first episode has exceeded 30,000 copies.

He originally thought that his book had at least a few thousand subscriptions in the sword qi.

600？ Far from it.

Although he was disappointed in his heart, Zhao Yan still cleaned up his mood and put two more chapters on the manuscript, plus the one uploaded last night and at noon today, there are already five chapters of the paid chapters uploaded on the first day of "The Great Becoming Sword of Rebirth".

Just like Wang Qin said, he, Zhao Yan, has not given up hope. (To be continued......)
