Chapter 60 Distribution

"Wow, I'm so unwilling......" Sylvia said with her long hair scattered on the pillow, her tender cherry lips twitching slightly, and she whispered full of loss. Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the long vacation she asked for to the school is coming to an end, and Fang Yan will also go to Milwick School to start a new round of further training. For a girl who has already lived a real honeymoon life with Fang Yan, it is undoubtedly a matter of great reluctance for her to be separated from her lover so soon.

However, Sylvia is no longer the somewhat pampered and willful girl she used to be. She knew very well that it was not yet the time for her and Fang Yan to enjoy happiness for a long time, and everything had to wait until her and the other party's life resumes were on the right track before she could truly pursue long-term happiness. When it was time to leave, she did not entangle and procrastinate, but boarded the train directly to Milan; What made her feel a little comforted was that Fang Yan was studying in a military academy in the future, which meant that he would have a lot of vacation time to meet him again.

After sending the girl away with a little reluctance, Fang Yan also packed up and left home. However, he did not go directly to the Milwijk school in the western part of Schleswig-Holstein, but first went to the port of Kiel, less than 100 kilometers away, to meet Raeder. Fang Yan's High Seas Fleet Apocalypse, which had been written over the years, had been sent to Raeder for several days, and the other party should have read the manuscript almost by now. After all, this was something that Fang Yan had come up with in accordance with the latter's will, and now he obviously wanted to walk in front of the other party after his success, and by the way, get the kind of recommendation he wanted that was enough to make him famous in the industry.

It was a short drive from Hamburg to Kiel, and Fang Yan, who had set out early in the morning, arrived in front of the vast military port before noon. Although the non-commissioned officer stationed at the sentry post gave Fang Yan an extremely disbelieving look at Fang Yan, who explained his intentions, thinking that the young man in front of him was suffering from delirium; However, he still followed Fang Yan's request and called the theater headquarters to confirm it. After less than two minutes, the non-commissioned officer holding the earpiece suddenly changed color; Slowly retracting the earpiece, he no longer had the previous suspicion in his gaze at Fang Yan, and immediately asked the two big-headed soldiers under him to remove the obstacle and let Fang Yan in.

"I've been reading your manuscript for the past few days. Most of the words in them have given me new enlightenment in my thinking. Seeing Fang Yan, Raider looked a little excited, and he did not hesitate to praise the young man in front of him in his words. He asked Fang Yan to sit at his desk, and said with a look of indignation: "I didn't expect that you yourself would be able to do this: not only are there almost no mistakes in the specific historical details, but even the words and sentences are so refined and sharp, and they have a fairly high readability in literature. I've helped you make up for the flaws in the details of the war history, and slightly changed some of the sentences to bring the whole article closer to perfection. If you think there is no problem, please submit it to the publisher as soon as possible to prepare for distribution. It will be a book that will allow the 65 million German citizens to dispel the fog in front of them and find the path of the future development of the nation. ”

Fang Yan took the manuscript handed by Raeder and flipped through it slightly, the expression on his face couldn't help but change, Raeder gave himself revisions and annotations in quite a few places, and in some places even deleted and rewrote large paragraphs. However, he could clearly feel that the areas that had been improved by Raeder had been significantly improved compared to his previous sentences, and the reading was more smooth and condensed, without any abrupt feeling. This kind of profound skill is by no means impossible for people who have been immersed in it for many years and are already talented in their own right. Now Fang Yan somewhat understood why the person in front of him was favored by both the Kaiser and the Crown Prince back then, thirty years ago, the young Raeder was undoubtedly the top group of young talents in the entire German Navy!

Looking at the other party's face that was a mixture of shock and gratitude, Raeder smiled slightly and said, "These are just some of the small tinkering I made on top of the theoretical edifice you built. Speaking of which, the importance of this bit of my work is not at all comparable to the feat of writing this article. In addition, it is my duty to make such a revelatory word of the gods as close to perfection as possible. As for the author's signature and the final copyright fee, I didn't have the slightest consideration at all, and you can write this article and distribute it to the whole country to educate the public, which is already the best reward for me. ”

Fang Yan was inexplicably moved in his heart, but he did not speak again on this issue; Raeder's words had already made everything clear to him, and he didn't need to say anything too much. With a solemn expression, he stood up and saluted respectfully to the vice admiral in front of him, and this time Raeder accepted it calmly, and with an appreciative and gentle smile, he gave Fang Yan, who was about to enter the military academy, a word of encouragement.

After carefully putting away the manuscript, Fang Yan, who had said goodbye to Raeder, set out on the road to Milvik School. Before the afternoon, the red castle-like building built on the hill by the sea came into view of Fang Yan. This is Fang Yan's second visit after nearly two years, and the last time it was back when he came here to participate in the two-week preliminary screening after graduating from middle school. This time, Fang Yan will complete a one-year theoretical refresher course, focusing on marine engineering and ship principles, but the internship period with the ship is still nearly three months. As long as this stage of training is completed, Fang Yan will be able to obtain the qualification of a senior candidate officer and go to the fleet to serve for the real time; And after the expiration of half a year of service, the term alternate in his title will also be removed, and replaced by a genuine second lieutenant that countless soldiers envy.

For Fang Yan, who had already laid a solid foundation in professional theory, this stage of further study in the military academy was undoubtedly much simpler than the previous training. However, he did not slack off because of this, on the contrary, the large number of professional books inherited from the Kiel Naval Academy in the school became an excellent source of nutrients for him to absorb in his spare time during the course. Fang Yan's greatest focus is undoubtedly in the field of aviation, with basic books on various specialties and the latest research articles published at home and abroad. Fang Yan had an ambition that had never been mentioned to anyone, that is, to raise his aeronautical attainments to the same level as ship design, so that he could organically use his knowledge of aircraft based on later generations, and hold up a vast sky for the future German naval aviation.

While Fang Yan was starting a new round of further study, he also negotiated with the Hamburg-based publishing house Gunayar for the publication of his long essay, which had been revised by Raeder. Due to Rudolph's connections and Raeder's recommendation, the publishing company, which was ranked number one in the whole of Germany, was very cooperative with Fang Yan's request and fulfilled his will in many ways. The full text was printed and published in the form of a book, and the title of the book was set to be more straightforward, "The Revelation of the Rise and Fall of the High Seas Fleet of the German Empire"; The price of about 300 pages is 15 marks, which is more than three times the price of most books published in Germany today. Regarding Fang Yan's black-hearted high price, the relevant personnel of Gunayar Publishing House couldn't help but secretly despise Fang Yan's wealth fan attribute while sweating for the future sales. According to the agreement signed by both parties, the proceeds from the sale of this high-priced book will be divided between Fang Yan and the publisher; And the Brom family is already the top tycoon on the banks of the Elbe, and now this young man is so eager to get these corners of the money!

At the beginning of June 1926, the first edition of 15,000 copies of the book began to be sold in bookstores in major German cities. In order to allow consumers to grit their teeth and shell out the high price of nearly $4, the cover of the book is a painted Bavaria-class battleship of the old Imperial Navy, which looks imposing. According to the estimation of the manager of the publishing house in charge of the book, it would be considered God's favor to sell 10,000 copies this year, after all, it is so expensive that it is almost impossible for ordinary wage earners to throw their wages for more than a week into this spiritual food. In fact, he really wanted to reduce the price of the book to a normal level, even if his own profits shrank significantly, it didn't matter, but the young author resolutely refused, claiming that if he didn't act according to his wishes, he would rather change his partner, which made him choose to obey the other party's wishes.

In the first week, the book sold as the publisher manager had expected, with the vast majority of people shy away from the high price of 15 marks, with only those in the upper income class buying some, and in total fewer than 400 copies were sold. However, Fang Yan was not in the slightest hurry, and still calmly completed his studies in school. He was waiting for the reaction of the first crab eaters, and the comments they made after reading the entire book were used to drive the second sale of his book. Fang Yan has always believed that his unique insight from later generations can take root and grow in Germany, the country concerned, and this country's second maritime enthusiasm will soon be ignited in his own hands.
