When Wang Mo'er got the twenty silver dollars that her young master handed over to her casually, her whole person was still a little incredible, and she felt like she was living in a dream.

"Now, we finally have our first income." Wang Defu showed a pleased smile on his face, ""Red Rose" is a semi-monthly magazine, I submit 20,000 to 30,000 yuan at one time, twice a month, and I can get 40 to 60 silver dollars a month (equivalent to 4,000 to 6,000 yuan in later generations), which is more than enough to temporarily maintain the daily life of both of us." ”

Wang Defu only feels that his confidence has become more sufficient, and even if there is a worst-case scenario such as a complete break with his family, he can remain calm, because he is financially independent and no longer has to be controlled by others.

Of course, as a last resort, Wang Defu doesn't want to get into too much trouble with his family, he is not a merciless person, he just wants to gain greater autonomy.

Wang Mo'er looked up at her young master with extremely admiring eyes, she also thought that the young master made money through writing, which was a hopeless thing, and was rejected by the "Gusu Evening News" at first, which also made her feel sorry for the young master, she only felt that he had done useless work, but she never thought of it, and then the peak turned around.

This incident made Wang Mo'er further understand that the phrase "knowledge is power" that the young master always said was not a lie, and if she was asked to earn these twenty silver dollars to sew and wash clothes for others, it was estimated that she would not be able to earn so much in a month.

is because the kind of work she does has no technical content at all, and there are too many people who can do it, and literary works like "Love and Sex" are not written by any writer.

Although Du Shuhuan first paid the manuscript fee for the "Red Rose" magazine, there was obviously a contract to be signed between Wang Defu and "Red Rose", so a few days later, Wang Defu met Ling Jingsu, the editor-in-chief of "Red Rose", and he still took Wang Moer, who was almost inseparable from him.

He didn't admit that he was the creator of "Love and Sex" anyway, but pushed Wang Moer out and became "Ms. Yiren".

Ling Jingsu met Wang Defu at a teahouse in the city of Suzhou, and it was raining on this day, and to get to the teahouse, you had to pass through an alley, where the architecture was ancient.

Coincidentally, Ling Jingsu, who was holding an oil-paper umbrella and wearing modern Hanfu, met Wang Defu by chance before walking into the alley, but they didn't know each other at that time, but just by looking at each other, the two left a deep impression on each other.

It can be said that there is no reason, and it can also be said that the appearance of the two is too good, in the case of complete strangeness and no communication, what does it depend on not by appearance?

Wang Defu stopped and let Ling Jingsu, who was holding an oil-paper umbrella, walk into the rain alley first, he only felt that this woman with excellent looks had the same perfect temperament, but she was too cold and arrogant, just like a lilac-like, sad girl.

The chance encounter before the meeting made each other after the meeting quickly become familiar with each other, and the small joy between each other's hearts, even if it was not obviously expressed, but the kind of fit that could not be described in words also made each other happy.

The contract was signed very smoothly, "Red Rose" magazine only needs the serial copyright of the work "Love and Sex", and if a single book is to be published later, Wang Defu can contact the publishing house himself, of course, he can also continue to cooperate with Ling Jingsu and publish it as an agent for her.

Ling Jingsu, the eldest lady of the official family, is not just an editor, she has a very good background and connections.

Wang Defu got the sample issue of the next issue of "Red Rose" on the spot, and found that his work had become the main work of "Red Rose", accounting for the best page of the whole magazine, which shows that Ling Jingsu does have high hopes for this work.

Of course, from another point of view, it can also be known that the authors of "Red Rose" magazine really have no cards, and there are too few who can really get their hands on it, which makes a pure newcomer writer like Wang Defu take the position.

Ling Jingsu did not hide the shortage of author resources under her magazine, and said to Wang Defu generously: "Since Mr. Wang is studying in a prestigious school like Soochow University, there must be talents who can write good articles in the school, if they can, let them all try to submit articles to "Red Rose", whether it is novels, essays, or poems, as long as the quality is outstanding, I will not refuse anyone who comes." ”

Of course, Wang Defu is willing to help with such a gesture, he actually hopes that the sales of "Red Rose" will get higher and higher, so that as the author who signed a contract with "Red Rose" when it was not popular, his status will definitely be higher and higher.

Of course, on the surface, the "Ms. Yiren" who signed a contract with "Red Rose", but Wang Moer, this is probably like a later generation of online writers who took their sister's ID card and signed a contract with the website when they signed a contract with the website, but in fact, it was the elder brother who actually wrote the article.

Ling Jingsu, like Du Shuhuan, could almost tell at a glance who the real author of "Love and Sex" was, but she was very willing to cooperate with Wang Defu.

Ling Jingsu didn't talk about the H content that was a little embarrassing in this work, but just talked about how well a modern poem like "Farewell Kangqiao" was written, as a female literary youth, she was very fascinated by the increasingly popular modern poetry genre, this is not to say that ancient poetry has fallen behind, but in this era, it is difficult for a poet to write such classic ancient poems.

This is not a problem of poets, but a problem of the times, each era has a popular style of each era, just like Tang poetry, Song Ci, Yuan Qu, but in the history of this world, they are not called Tang poems, Song Ci, Yuan Qu, because there are no such dynasties at all, but there are famous poets through the ages, comparable to Li Bai and Su Shi in his world.

Wang Defu saw that Ling Jingsu liked modern poetry so much, and relied on the vision of being ahead of the world for I don't know how many years, and casually said some opinions on modern poetry, which made Ling Jingsu's eyes shine when he heard it, and he only felt that Wang Defu was worthy of being a writer who could portray the role of a great poet like "Xu Shizhe", and his attainments in modern poetry were too deep!

When Wang Defu was speaking, he seemed to remember something, but he took out a pen and wrote a modern poem called "Rain Alley" on the paper and gave it to Ling Jingsu.

After Ling Jingsu left, Ling Jingsu read the content of the poem with anticipation-

Holding an oil-paper umbrella, alone

Wandering in a long, long

Lonely rain alley,

I hope it will be

A clove-like

A girl with a grudge.

She is

The color of lilacs,

The fragrance of cloves,

Lilac-like sorrow,

Wailing in the rain,

grief and hesitation;

She wandered in this lonely rainy alley,

Holding an oil-paper umbrella

Like me,

Like me

Walking silently,

Indifferent, desolate, and melancholy.

She approached silently

Approached, and threw again

With the general vision of Taixi,

She floated by

Like a dream,

It's like a dream.

It's like floating in a dream

A sprig of cloves,

This girl floated beside me;

She was silently far away, far away,

To the desolate hedge,

Walk through this rainy alley.

In the lament of the rain,

Faded her color,

Scattered her fragrance

dissipated,

Even hers

Breath-like vision,

Lilac-like melancholy.

Holding an oil-paper umbrella, alone

Wandering in a long, long

Lonely rain alley,

I want to float by

A clove-like

A girl with a grudge.
