Chapter 588: Caring for the author is everyone's responsibility

"And then?" Du Jinning squinted at him with his eyes, "The third volume was written, and those people crowded there shouting for the fourth volume, did you come over and ask me to write it again?" For the rest of my life, I just wrote a script. ”

Zhuang Yue choked, only to realize that he was on the wrong line, patronizing for the sake of the readers, and also patronizing himself to read the script for a while, forgetting that Du Jinning is not a professional writer, she has a lot of more important things to do, and she has to take care of her body.

"Say it again." Du Jinning said again, "I came out of these books in time. Now those people are urging to buy the book.,Don't you just want to see if the regenerative rice planted by the male protagonist in the book can be successful? If it succeeds, and I write it in my article, those people will take advantage of the time to harvest the rice now, and try to see if they can actually harvest another crop of rice. ”

She raised her eyes and looked at Zhuang Yue: "It's successful, they get a lot of income for free; If I don't succeed, you know what they're going to do with me, right? Why should I carry this pot for them? ”

Zhuang Yue was stunned, and then he was ashamed.

He, the shopkeeper, is too unqualified. He couldn't even understand such a simple truth, and it was stupid to run for those people to urge his young master to take the blame for others.

"So, just wait. The third volume should at least wait until the rice harvest is complete. Those who are willing to give it a try will naturally have benefits; Those who hesitate and can't make up their minds, always want to rely on others to dig the ditch, and rub on other people's experience to pick up ready-made, then wait for next year to get this income. Try it or not, it's all in their minds, and it has nothing to do with me. You know, in the second book, I just mentioned that there is such a thing, and I didn't say that it would really work. What do they have to do with me? ”

"Young master, it's the right thing for you to do this, but I didn't think about it deeply." Zhuang Yue had palpitations, "Fortunately, you are thoughtful, otherwise I would have made a big mistake." ”

Thinking about how those people would be entangled with Du Jinning if they had no income from regenerating rice, or if the income was not comparable to the fertilizer and labor money they had paid, and how they would belittle our young master in public opinion, Zhuang Yue felt that he was really stupid just now.

Although he believes in his young master, Du Jinning wrote about regenerative rice in the book, and said that regenerated rice can get half of the income of the first rice, then it will definitely be possible. There is nothing inaccurate for the young master to say. Therefore, there is no such thing as being overwhelmed by public opinion after defeat.

However, farming depends on the weather for food, and the first crop of rice has a reduced yield and a failed harvest, not to mention regenerated rice. When the time comes, there will be a cold snap, resulting in no harvest or very little harvest of regenerated rice, who is responsible for this loss? Some people will inevitably count this loss on Du Jinning's head.

For the sake of others, putting the reputation and future of his young master in an extremely dangerous situation, isn't he stupid?

The more he thought about it, the more sweat seeped from Zhuang Yue's forehead, and he was so annoyed that he almost didn't give himself a slap.

"Okay, no matter how much those people urge, you don't pay attention to it, just say that the author writes slowly, and he has to change and change when he writes, so there is no way to publish a book in ten days and a half months. You tell them that this book is published about once a month, so that they don't have to run to the bookstore all day long. ”

As he spoke, Du Jinning touched his chin: "Let's set a date, let's start on the first day of each month, and a book will be published on the first day of each month." ”

It is now the beginning of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, and the rice is only planted for one season, and the latest rice harvest is in this month. When the third volume of the book is published in November, it is a foregone conclusion that those people will try to regenerate rice or not.

"Okay, young master." Zhuang Yue is now a guide to Du Jinning's words, and there is no one who does not obey them.

Zhuang Yue returned to the bookstore and convened a meeting of the shopkeepers, and the central idea of the meeting was only one: to protect the author's information, and never leak the author's information to the readers. In addition, I will inform you that "Farming Notes" will be published at the beginning of each month, so that they can patiently explain it to readers.

"No, big shopkeeper, who is the author of "Farming", we don't know, where can we talk about leaking the author's information? You can rest assured, as long as you hold it tightly, no one knows who the author of "Farming" is. ”

One of the shopkeepers came from Gui Province with Zhuang Yue, and the personal relationship between the two was quite good, so he joked with Zhuang Yue with a smile.

At the beginning, Zhuang Yue took this "Farming Record" and personally took it to the printing workshop to print. And these shopkeepers, in fact, are not the special shopkeepers of the bookstore, but the responsible flower shop, and the bookstore is just managed by the way. Because the bookstore is small, it sells the most common things, there are no characteristics, and the business is bleak, compared to the business of the flower shop, which is not good, and the energy of these shopkeepers is all focused on the flower shop. So when this "Farming Story" was put on sale, even if the shopkeepers were told about it, few people paid attention to it; Who its author is, and no one cares.

It's only in the past few days that business has suddenly improved, and there are more people urging more people, that the shopkeepers take it as a thing, and their eyes begin to focus on this book.

However, this does not include the shopkeeper who joked with Zhuang Yue just now.

This one was the shopkeeper of the Du family very early, and he began to follow Yao Shuqi, and later followed Zhuang Yue. He knows very well that his young owner is a master of writing scripts, and the books of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" that are still very popular in the capital are written by his own young owner. So after "Farming" became popular, he deliberately read this book, although there is no very clear mark on his own young owner in the writing technique, but the story is so fascinating and unstoppable, looking at the entire Song Dynasty, I am afraid that there are only their young owners.

Now that Zhuang Yue is beating like this, the shopkeeper is even more sure that this is the handiwork of the young owner, so there is such a joke. And this joke is also a reminder to Zhuang Yue, don't do too much, otherwise there will be no three hundred taels of silver here.

Zhuang Yue also heard the reminder of his old friend, secretly slapped himself, and quickly explained: "The main reason is that there are too many readers at the door who are urging the change, so I emphasize it like this." If you think about it, the author writes at his own pace, and if these readers know where he lives, who his real identity is, and runs to his house every day to make trouble, how can he write well? And the book also deals with farming. If someone learns the protagonist in it to plant regenerative rice, but the harvest fails, he goes directly to the author's house, which author will dare to write a book for our bookstore in the future? ”

The shopkeepers didn't care at first, but when they heard this, they suddenly became nervous and nodded: "That's true, don't worry, the big shopkeeper can save it." ”

Whether it's a flower shop or a bookstore, they all have a 1% commission on sales. Business is good, and it's good for them. They divulge the author's secrets, which is the practice of self-destructing the Great Wall.
