Chapter 189: Getting Rich If You Are Not Careful (Asking for Subscription)
After the last class in the afternoon, Lin Lu put on his bag and left the school on a small electric donkey.
From Su University to Huajiang Building, where Li Xingruo works, it takes about 20 minutes to ride an electric car, and it is just 5:40 when she comes here, and she also gets off work on time and comes out of the company.
"You're here so soon! Did you skip school? ”
"Normal speed, okay, Sister Xingruo, get in the car!"
"What do you want to eat tonight?"
"It's starting to get cold, why don't we have a hot pot together tonight?"
"Oh! It seems like I haven't eaten hot pot in a long time! ”
Li Xingruo straddled into the car, hugged his waist as usual, and greeted the afterglow of the sunset, and the sister and brother rode the electric car leisurely on the road home.
I think it's been a long time since I've been cooking and eating together at home, from the Mid-Autumn Festival last month to the present, either I ate at Aunt Zou's place, or I brought food with him to eat in the canteen during military training, but now it's fine, life is gradually on the right track, and Lin Lu can go home to eat and sleep every day in the future.
Compared with the hot summer, now sitting in the back seat and hugging him intimately, there will be no sultry feeling surrounded by the heat, the sky is gradually becoming taller, and the street trees are secretly dotted with a few golden yellows, autumn has arrived.
The change of seasons is always imperceptible, and when you notice it, you are often already in the middle of a certain season.
This is a bit like the relationship between the two, until now, Li Xingruo can't tell when he started to like him so much, maybe it was a break during a certain tutoring session, he took a water cup to help her pour water, sat down next to her, and watched the two water glasses side by side, very beautiful; Or maybe you have a long, long dream about him, and wake up and see him by your side; Or maybe it's a backlit afternoon, he's wearing a white shirt, and a moment makes her laugh so happily......
I like this, it sounds complicated, but it's actually so simple that it doesn't make sense.
It's the same with happiness, the more I grow up, the more I feel that it's not easy to be happy, but when I'm with him, the happy mood is like candy scattered in a fruit bowl, which can be easily obtained.
"Hey......
Li Xingruo laughed secretly, and slapped his blue helmet with her pink helmet.
"What's the matter, Sister Xingruo seems to be in a good mood today?"
"Huh? Did you see it? ”
"Of course, Sister Xingruo pouted Bigu, I knew you wanted to ......"
"Change the adjective!!"
"Okay, so why is Sister Xingruo so happy today?"
"Guess it~"
"Because you're going to sleep with me in the bed tonight!"
“…… Get lost! ”
"That's because you're going to take a shower with me tonight!"
"Whew! What the hell do you guess it! ”
Li Xingruo pinched him a few times in shame, this bad guy is cautious everywhere, she never thought that she could transfer her brazen wishes to her in this way, if she said congratulations, you guessed right, then he would not be happy!
"It's so hard to guess, Sister Xingruo and I are very happy every day, if I want to guess why Sister Xingruo is unhappy, then I will definitely guess it."
"Huh? Would you still guess unhappy? ”
"It's not simple, if Sister Xingruo is not happy, she must not be with me and miss me."
"Phew!"
"Could it be that Sister Xingruo has picked up the money?"
"Haha! Half and half of it! ”
Li Xingruo became happy, hugged his waist, and whispered to his ear: "Tell you, tell you, my book is about to be published!" ”
"Publish?! Are you sure?! ”
"Hey, yes! After buying the groceries later, you can print the contract with me! ”
Since last month, the department in charge of copyright on Haitang's side has begun to operate the publication of her book, and I thought it would be delayed until the end, but I didn't expect that on the first day I came back from the holiday, this matter was confirmed.
In the afternoon, the editor in charge of copyright contacted her, communicated with her about the publication, and sent her an electronic contract to see.
It is a very large publishing house in China, and she directly signed the simplified and traditional Chinese copyright of her book, and the royalties were also given twelve points, excluding the share of the website, she could get about ten points of royalties herself.
"Is ten points too much or too little?"
"That's a lot! It's not a well-known god, but newcomers can get ten royalties for publishing, which is amazing! ”
"Sister Xingruo is shocked! Invincible to the ground!! ”
"Hahaha~"
Sure enough, someone can share happiness, it will double the happiness, since knowing that her book was going to be published in the afternoon, Li Xingruo almost didn't suffocate in the company, after all, no one among her colleagues knew that she went to Haitang to write a book, and the publication naturally couldn't let her colleagues know, but I really wanted to tell someone! The old sister pretended to be calm and went to work for a long time, and finally stayed up until she saw Lin Lu after work before telling him that this mood bloomed, not to mention how fluttery it was.
"How much money can Sister Xingruo get?"
"It's linked to the first print~"
"What does the first print mean?"
"It's the number of the first printing, stupid~"
"I don't understand, Sister Xingruo, give me the math!"
Li Xingruo is too happy to count this, because the book is still serialized, so it is currently decided to print three volumes, three volumes are about 500,000 words, and the last volume will be printed after her book is finished with 600,000 words.
Because the electronic subscription results are very good, there are currently 9,000 equals, and the number of first prints given by the publisher has also been set, 50,000 copies in simplified Chinese and 20,000 copies in traditional Chinese, divided into three parts, that is, 210,000 physical books are printed, each book is priced at 36 yuan, according to her ten-point royalties, she can get 756,000 yuan at one time, even after tax deduction, there are more than 600,000 yuan.
The royalties of the first printing are issued in a one-time manner, and if the sales of the follow-up physical book are good, then it will be reprinted, and the royalties of the additional printing can be increased negotiably, as long as the market response is enthusiastic, the sales of physical bestsellers are very considerable, and it will not be a problem to print 100,000 copies, 200,000 copies, or even one million copies in the future.
Probably this is the belief that every creator depends on to survive, physical books are printed, film and television copyrights are sold, and only one book is needed to eat for a lifetime, which is really enviable.
"Seven hundred and fifty thousand!! It's just the money for the first printing!! Sister Xingruo!! My Superman!! ”
"Hahaha......"
"If hundreds of thousands of copies are printed in the follow-up, and the film and television rights are sold, Sister Xingruo will really become a little rich woman!!"
"Low-key and low-key, how can it be so simple, if it is not printed and sold well, there will be no follow-up printing."
"Sister Xingruo has to believe in the vision of the publishing house! If you weren't optimistic, how could you dare to print so much for the first print! ”
"Hahaha, don't say it, my tail will be up to the sky in a while!"
"Sister Xingruo!"
"Huh?"
"You've really become a great writer! Done your dream! It's really remarkable! ”
"How can there be a great writer......"
"Yes, in my heart, Sister Xingruo is the most powerful writer! Big Writer Sister ~ My Big Writer Girlfriend ~~"
Lin Lu frequently triggered her shyness keywords, and her sister, who couldn't help but praise, couldn't speak, and buried her face in his back with a smile.
She felt more and more that Lin Lu was really here to repay the favor, since she met him, life was smooth and sweet, and her work performance was also thriving, and the book she wrote was not only signed, but also published, and she was barely embarrassed to tell others that she was a writer, full of energy every day, full of confidence in the future, and the positive attitude brought by his existence made her smooth sailing, probably this is the so-called meeting a lover!
"I'm having a lot of fun today, so I'm going to reward you tonight!"
"Is the great writer Xiao He going to take a bath with me?"
", you~!"
It's rare to make a fortune, and tonight's food standard has naturally been improved, even if it's a hot pot, it's a high-standard hot pot.
I bought oysters, sea cucumbers, abalone, scallops, prawns and other nutritious and delicious seafood, and I will eat seafood hot pot tonight, which my sister and brother and the little fat cat at home like.
After buying the vegetables, Lin Lu went to the printing shop with her to print out the contract.
In the past, he had a headache when he saw these dense words, but now he is holding her contract and reading it seriously, and he doesn't let go of every word.
After all, she is a new author, and she has no right to decide on copyright, the contract is negotiated between the website and the publishing house, she only needs to sign it, and the royalties will be paid to the account along with the manuscript fee next month.
"Abominable capitalists! Come on, Sister Xingruo, one day she will become the pillar of Begonia, like Pillow Xiaoyue, she will have the right to discuss with the website! ”
"Sister now has enough money to maintain you, right?"
"I want to buy a Mercedes!"
“…… Buy you a head! I don't have any money! Eat buns for you! ”
Although I made six or seven hundred thousand yuan at once, it seems like a lot, but in the long-term future, it is still not enough, and I need to earn a little more, after all, I have to spend money to buy a house, get married, and have a baby in the future.
"Eat steamed buns, eat steamed buns, anyway, I don't get tired of eating~"
Sister Xingruo has always said that she does what she says, recalling that when she first met, she also said that she would invite him to eat the most delicious buns in the world, and now he has eaten it, he really can't get tired of eating it, and he will eat it tonight.
"Don't be in a hurry to buy a car, when my sister has money in the future, I will drive you the best car in the world!"
Listening to her words, Lin Lu began to yearn for it again.
When they got home, the two of them were busy in the kitchen together, and the little fat cat didn't know what day it was, but he knew that there was something delicious today.
Not to mention Xiaoman, such a hearty seafood hot pot, in exchange for anyone to come, the aftertaste is endless, like oysters, sea cucumbers and the like, not only delicious and sweet, but also tonifying the body, good for both men and women.
The petty bourgeois hot pot of the two of them ate until eight o'clock in the evening, and even the little fat cat was full, and they were extremely satisfied.
After the meal, Lin Lu was responsible for cleaning up the kitchen, Li Xingruo also took out the contract to check it again, then signed his name, packed it in a document bag, placed an order on the small program, and soon a Fengshun courier came to pick it up.
She can't wait for tomorrow to send it, if she doesn't send it out for a minute, she won't be able to settle down for a minute, if the Begonia company is also in southern Jiangsu, she can personally send the contract over.
Eighteen yuan for ordinary delivery, twenty-three yuan for express mail, although the speed is not much different, but Li Xingruo did not hesitate to choose the most expensive.
As soon as the courier picked up the parcel and left, she couldn't wait to take out her mobile phone to refresh the express information, Haitang headquarters is in Yanjing, and it can be sent at noon the day after tomorrow at the latest.
After finishing this, the little girl breathed a sigh of relief and lazily lay down on the sofa.
I'm excited today.,The code word can't calm down.,Although the manuscript has been urgent.,But it's okay to top it for two more days.,Then give yourself another day off.。
"The contract was sent?"
"Uh-huh~"
Thinking about it warmly, seeing Lin Lu come out of the kitchen after cleaning up, Li Xingruo, who was on the sofa, got up and stuck to him like a koala and hugged him.
Since returning from the trip, it has become more and more obvious that the sister-next-door with a seemingly cold face rubbed over and coquettished him.
Lin Lu was angry and funny, thinking that he had ever wanted to pull her little hand, he refused.
"Sister Xingruo, isn't she coding words tonight?"
"Don't code words, don't be quiet, and write again tomorrow. How's your up account going? ”
"The avatar has been drawn, and I'm about to edit the video."
Lin Lu put the computer on the dining table, he pulled out the dining table and chair and sat down, Li Xingruo, who was originally holding him behind him, let go of his hand, thinking that she would sit down on the chair next to him, but he pulled his hand, shrunk his delicate and soft body into a ball, turned over and sat on his lap, as if he was placed in the proper position, and the movements were so natural and smooth.
Sister Xingruo, who rubbed on his lap like a coquettish kitten, there was no place in his body that was not warm and soft, Lin Lu opened the laptop and put it in front of him, and put his hands around her waist, so that the bodies of the two were closer together, Li Xingruo put his slender arm around his neck, and his pretty face was close to his heart, and then raised his chin slightly, smacking the Adam's apple on his neck.
"Itchy, Sister Xingruo, don't make trouble, I'm going to work."
"Then you just work, and I won't talk to you."
Although he didn't talk to me, who is it that has been teasing me!
God knows how much perseverance Lin Lu had before he edited the first video uploaded to his account.
The moment her hands left the mouse and keyboard, she was about to slip in from the hem of her clothes, but Sister Xingruo, who had been naughty for a long time, moved very quickly, seeing that Lin Lu couldn't hold it back, she grinned and slapped his hand away, and slipped out of his arms like a little loach.
"Bye-bye! I'm going to take a shower! You're going to take a shower, it's stinking! ”
"Together!"
"!"
She took a change of clothes and hid in the bathroom of his room, and when Lin Lu went to screw the door, she actually locked the door with a bad heart.
"Sister Xingruo open the door!"
"Go away!"
"Then I won't sleep with you tonight."
"Who is rare! Bye! ”
Lin Lu was angry, took a shower in the bathroom outside, and then went to sleep in her room.
When Li Xingruo returned to the room after taking a shower, Lin Lu was pretending to be asleep on her bed, and she pretended not to see it.
Just turn on the hair dryer, and when the sound of the hair dryer sounds, her royal hair guards will rub over to blow her hair.
"Who said you wouldn't sleep with me tonight?" Li Xingruo tilted his head and thought.
"I slept in Sister Xingruo's room, Sister Xingruo can go to my room to sleep, Sister Xingruo also came over, so Sister Xingruo wants to come with me." Lin Lu blew her hair while admiring her round and slender legs extending out of her little shorts.
"I see! Then I'll go over there and sleep! ”
"Don't ......"
Lin Lu hurriedly wrapped his legs around her to prevent her from escaping, and Li Xingruo plucked his leg hair badly.
The sound of the hair dryer stopped, Lin Lu reached out behind her and played a game of catching polar bears, Li Xingruo gently sneered, showing his resistance, and then stopped moving, closed his eyes, and his eyelashes trembled.
"Sister Xingruo."
"Hmm......?"
"I'm so happy today, do you want to do something else?"
"What?"
"It won't hurt your body's ...... anyway"
The two lay down together, Lin Lu reached out to turn off the light in the room, and the bedroom fell into darkness.
The sound of Suo Suo came in the dimness, and the two figures under the light of the night light hugged more and more tightly.
"Alright, it's time to go to bed......"
"I'm sleeping, but Sister Xingruo can't seem to sleep."
"Hmph, no."
"Sister Xingruo is dishonest."
"Yike......!"
At a certain moment, Lin Lu slipped into the quilt, and her little hand that pushed his head covered his mouth at some point, but even so, the shame and sweetness in her soft voice couldn't be hidden.
I don't know how long it took, Lin Lu finally came out of the quilt.
Li Xingruo, who was already satisfied, was finally sleepy, his eyebrows and eyes were hazy and charming, curled up in a small ball, and hid in his arms in shame, looking like a little bird.
"It's good to sleep now."
"Hmmm......"
The delicate sister bit him and forbade him to mention it again.
