"There's Uncle Lao Shi, I'm really sorry not to go!" Shirakawa thanked him.

"Sir is too polite, compared with the two great miracles you offered, this kind of trivial matter is simply not worth mentioning!" Mr. Gao said seriously.

"Just do your best, the younger generation is really not as great as you say, Uncle Shi."

After a polite gesture, and then the two sat down, Bai He carefully looked at the book in his hand, and then he realized that this book was not one, but two, the first and second volumes, each about 150,000 words, and the content just matched the manuscript he had handed in.

The paper is the best rice paper, and the ink is also the top pine smoke ink, and Bai He specially asked Mr. Gao to refine the collector's edition for the second lady, and the cost is quite expensive...... Well, there is money and relationships, it's so capricious.

The cover is not as fancy as the pirated tome that can be seen on Baihe's previous life on Tong Street, it simply reads the five words "Legend of Mortal Cultivation of Immortals", with sharp strokes and iron and silver hooks, like a fairy sword sealed on paper, giving people the illusion that as long as they blow the fairy breath, the paper will break out.

The whole book, antique, looks like a tall work.

"It's not easy!"

Rubbing the book in his hand, Bai He's heart sighed, but also filled with a full sense of achievement: although it is only a book, it is a collection of three major technologies: mechanism, movable type printing and assembly line production, in just three days, a book was created from scratch, and it also comes with two sets of advanced technology that can be said to be epoch-making, it is not an exaggeration to say that it represents the crystallization of labor condensed by the highest level of productivity in this era, and this is still promoted by oneself, and it is false to say that there is no sense of achievement.

Especially when he saw that there were three small words written under the title of the book: by Bai He, the sense of accomplishment in his heart was even higher: haha...... We're big writers now, too!

"Of course, it is also possible that he has changed to a hard-working coder ......" Although he added this in his heart, Shirakawa still smiled like a fool.

Making liquor and opening a franchise store is to make money to feed his wife, which is very meaningful, but it is not interesting. To put it in sour, it is a mundane matter. And making movable type, out, although it has no practical significance for Bai He, he thinks it is very interesting.

Interesting, that's enough.

As a human being in two lives, just want to be happy, and the other Baihe don't dare to ask for too much......

"It's easy to ask for priceless treasures, it's rare to have a lover, Mr. is so affectionate, the second lady must be very happy." Mr. Gao was obviously in a good mood, and made an unprecedented joke, "I only hate the old and the blessed, and there is no daughter under my knees, otherwise, marrying Mr. as a concubine is also a blessing from my Gao family's three lives, hahaha......"

Bai He's rare old face turned red: "Uncle Shi said that he laughed, the younger generation is just a son-in-law......"

"Sir, that's a mistake."

Before the words fell, he was interrupted by Mr. Gao, and the old gentleman just finished laughing, and suddenly became serious again in a blink of an eye, "The so-called Tianxingjian, a gentleman strives for self-improvement!" If you are as talented as Mr., you will not be a thing in the pool in the future, so why should you be arrogant and cherish the name of a mere son-in-law? As for all kinds of ridicule from the outside world, it is just a fool's short-sightedness, and Mr. does not need to take it to heart. It can be seen that although the Lin family gave you the name of son-in-law, they have no intention of seeing anything else. ”

"Uncle Shi is reasonable, the younger generation has been taught!"

People who have taught books, speaking is a set, as soon as there is a chance to go online, after being sincere, Bai He diverted the topic in a slippery way, and casually asked if there had been any accidents in the printing house in the past few days, and the production was smooth, Mr. Gao thought about it, and then talked about the failure of the little rascal to cultivate immortals and ate a big mouthful of crab shit.

"I'm Nima!" Shirakawa was stunned at the time.

"But fortunately, Li Shaoxia has a solid foundation, and the Taoist theory is really pure, although it can't be practiced, it won't hurt the body, so it's okay."

Mr. Gao added another sentence, and Bai He was relieved.

He didn't know that his original manuscript had been combed by Gao Laosan again, and after listening to Mr. Gao, he just felt a little incredible: Is our forced standard too high, or is Li Yuanfang's IQ too low? Did you really read the cheats of cultivating immortals?

With this IQ, how did he get his one-grade realm?! Could it be that this is the heart of the legend of a child, who can be distracted without distractions, so he advances by leaps and bounds?

Tsk, it's really the world of martial arts masters, we don't understand!

On the homepage, there is a sentence specially added by Gao Laosan: Before reading this book, please be sure to bring your brain. Bai He pondered it a few times very seriously, and felt that Gao Laosan's decision was too wise! thought to himself, it seems that the reason why the second stunned man would worship Gao Laosan as a brother is not unreasonable-just rush to this tacit understanding.

Just thinking about it, I suddenly heard Mr. Gao say again: "Sir, the old man has something to ask for." ”

"Well, Uncle Shi, please speak." Shirakawa came back to his senses.

Mr. Gao pointed to the hardcover edition in his hand and said seriously: "Sir, this book is exquisite, although it is not a famous scripture, but the story implies that it is Taoist essence, but it is no less than a masterpiece. Therefore, I want to ask Mr. to authorize my old pen to print and sell on behalf of me, so that people all over the world can read Mr.'s masterpiece together, so that it can be regarded as a good thing. ”

Well, to copyright? Bai He was stunned for a moment.

In this era, there is actually no such thing as copyright and patent, and the liquor he made is a special case and cannot be generalized.

There are two ways to get a book published:

First, a masterpiece by a famous artist, the publishing house will naturally pay to buy it out to help you print, and as for the subsequent profits, it has nothing to do with you, at most you will gain some fame. Of course, if there is piracy, then the merchants who pay to buy it out will also lose a wave of blood. Therefore, it is not unreasonable that most of the books on the market are mainly Confucian classics such as the Four Books and the Five Classics. You copy me, everyone copys, everyone grabs business according to their ability.

If you can write well, then you can make a lot of money by copying famous calligraphy and paintings to sell, or writing them for people to copy, and even if you can't help people copy books, then you can also make a lot of money - this is where many poor scholars come from.

The second is to pay for printing by yourself, and the bookstore will sell it on your behalf, and you will be responsible for your own profits and losses, and the bookstore will charge you a little handling fee or something at most, this method is suitable for rich disciples who have a lot of money and want to be famous.

There are some reasons why Baihe has no intention of entering the publishing industry: because the cost of piracy is too low, it is easy to lose all your money. If it is an "enchanted talisman" made by a martial arts master, it is naturally a different matter.

Writing a book is only for interest, so it naturally doesn't matter, but if you really want to look at it as a business, it is easy to affect your mood because of profit and loss, and the gains outweigh the losses.
