Xing Shuang was also puzzled about her daughter's pen name, she asked her daughter: "The courtyard where you live is not called Zilingzhou, I thought you would be called Ziling or Lingzhou." How did you come up with such a name, and what does it mean? ”

Yingchun smiled and explained to her mother: "Whether it is Ziling or Lingzhou, they are too much for their daughter's family, and it is a little lacking in momentum as a translated name, which is inevitably underestimated."

"And I, who am from the East, and go to the West to study, it is most appropriate to consider myself a visitor from the East. And such a translation of the name is indistinguishable between men and women, even if it is mentioned every day, I can't think that it is from a female streamer.

"Although I can be educated as a talented woman, and I can show my own name generously, but my father is an official in the court, and my mother has to bear pressure from many parties, so it is better to hide people's eyes and ears, and it can save a lot of trouble."

Xing Shuang was really touched by her daughter's intimateness, and even when Wang Xifeng heard about it afterwards, she couldn't help but praise Yingchun, saying to her: "Everything is detailed, and there is nothing unreachable about human feelings." ”

So next, Xing Shuang really used the translated name of Donglaike, re-ordered the typesetting cover, and officially printed and published a batch of books.

Only 100 copies of the first batch of books were printed, and all of them were sold in the "Shouyuan Bookstore" in Guangzhou.

It's only been half a month, and only two or three of these 100 books have been sold.

On this day, Jia Jin had nothing to do at home, wandering to Zilingzhou, and met Wang Xifeng to comfort the depressed Yingchun again, and when he asked, he learned that his sister's translation was not selling well and was worried.

When Jia Jin heard this, she burst out laughing. Yingchun looked at his younger brother, and was embarrassed to annoy him, so he only said angrily: "I hurt you in vain." ”

When Jia Jin heard this, she laughed louder and louder, and after laughing, she said, "My sister said this, but she wronged me." I only laughed at my sister for not understanding the truth of this business, and she was still arrogant, thinking that she had a problem. ”

Yingchun was stunned and said: "What is this business, if the book is well written, someone wants to buy it, and if it is not good-looking, no one will buy it." ”

Jia Jin shook her head and asked her: "Then dare to ask sister, if I give you a fruit I haven't seen before, and tell you that this is a delicacy in the world, let you eat it, do you eat it or not?" ”

Yingchun thought for a while and said, "Since you gave it, naturally you want to taste it." ”

Jia Jin asked again: "Then if you see such a fruit on the side of the road, and the merchant praises it and says that this fruit is extremely delicious, will you buy it without hesitation?" ”

"This ......" Yingchun was speechless for a while.

Wang Xifeng smiled at the right time: "Didn't I say the same thing, but what I said was not as simple as my brother, but when my brother said this, even a child can understand it."

"Everything that can be called a cargo has to have a process of promotion. It's not what the merchants recommend, and the people rush to grab it.

"Didn't the first person to eat crabs have to take courage to dare to eat? Besides, my mother sent so many books out before, so I have to allow people to have a time to read them at this time, and after reading the sample books that were sent out, I will know if this book is good, right?

"You just have to wait with peace of mind, and when those sample books are recited and opened, someone will naturally buy them."

Yingchun was persuaded by her sister-in-law and younger brother in turn, but she calmed down a lot.

Then Jia Jin asked Yingchun again: "Sister, is it that the translation is to sell books to make money in the first place?" ”

Yingchun Zhengse said: "Naturally not, I think that there are many good works in the West, but they are not known to us in the East." What is conveyed in these books is what I want people to know. I just want Oriental people to learn more about Western culture, not to make money. ”

After listening to this, Jia Jin looked at Yingchun with a smile and stopped talking.

Yingchun looked at his younger brother's expression, and gradually understood in his heart, and couldn't help blushing.

"It's a shame that I'm a lot older than you, but it's not as clear as you think." Yingchun said: "I didn't touch utilitarianism at the beginning, but now it's utilitarian, I understand what you mean." ”

Wang Xifeng blinked his eyes and laughed: "Come on, you sisters and brothers have a deep affection, you all have a tacit understanding, but I can't understand this rough person, and I won't mix it up, Ming'er is going to issue a big order again, and I'm busy with mine." ”

After that, Wang Xifeng got up to say goodbye, and asked Jia Jin again: "Are you leaving?" ”

Jia Jin woke up her sister, so naturally she was leaving. Yingchun did not leave them, and as soon as they left, he returned to the study, selected the next book he wanted to translate, and began to read it again.

Out of Zilingzhou, Wang Xifeng said to Jia Jin with a smile: "I'm afraid you didn't come by yourself, you must have been called by your wife?" ”

Jia Jin smiled, did not say yes, and did not refute.

Wang Xifeng saw that he didn't answer, and he didn't ask, but said: "You go back and tell your wife, I have two orders here to send to the capital, I want to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, take the eldest sister's translation book as a personal favor, and beg her to give me a few copies and let me bring some to the past." ”

Jia Jin then spoke: "My sister-in-law obviously wants to help the eldest sister, this is really the heart of the Bodhisattva." It's just that my sister-in-law is a bit of a haste to do this. The books given away by my mother are really almost coming to fruition, and my sister-in-law doesn't have to worry, just wait. ”

Yes, in a hurry? It takes half a year to go back and forth to the capital here, and even if there is good news, it will be said after half a year.

At this time, in the capital, there are already people who are obsessed with this book.

The two who acted as the brunt were Xing Xiuyan, who lived in Jia's house, and Shi Xiangyun, who often came to Jia's house to play.

On this day, Shi Xiangyun was taken by Jia's mother to Jiafu to play, and when he went to find Xing Xiuyan, he saw that Xing Xiuyan was obsessed with the books in his hand, and he pestered Xing Xiuyan for a while.

Xing Xiu couldn't grind her, so she raised her head and said to her maid: "You go to the second wife, ask for a copy of the same, show it to her, and save her to pester me again." ”

Shi Xiangyun didn't take it seriously at first, but when the book was really coming, he read it for a while, and he was also addicted to the book and couldn't extricate himself.

At dusk, the maid came to call them to dinner, and the two girls forgot to look up, until Jia's mother came to find herself, and then found that the two girls were enchanted.

"Good girl, you are so stunned by a book, you don't eat or drink water, what kind of book has brought you to this point?"

Although Jia's mother blamed her mouth, she was very proud in her heart, others didn't know the origin of this book, but she privately inquired about the family who sent it, and heard that this book was translated by Yingchun, she was also very happy, and she finished reading a book early, which would be recommended to Xing Xiuyan.

Now that these two girls are so intoxicated, Jia Mu is naturally more proud, and even proud, without a trace of dissatisfaction.
