"Could you please issue a receipt...... And may I ask, how do you go to the county No. 2 middle school in Qingshui County? ”

Geng Zhi handed the money to the collector of the guest house, took back his letter of introduction, and then asked for directions by the way.

At noon today, he suddenly received "good news", and after comprehensive research in the society, it was decided that he should contact the "Seven Inch Blade" and finalize the publication of "Latent" as soon as possible.

Geng Zhi held his breath for a while, and almost erupted on the spot.

[Didn't I wipe Feng Bo's ass with this? Whoever pulls the poop and who eats it back......]

But in the end, Geng Zhi still endured this breath.

Because he is really optimistic about the book "Latent", he wants to fight for it again.

It's just that Feng Bo played a trick and didn't tell Geng Zhi clearly about calling Principal Chang.

So Geng Zhi didn't know that someone from the publishing house had come to Li Ye, and after arriving in Qingshui County, he thought about staying first and mixing up the departure fee.

At that time, the unit went on a business trip, and there was no way to "buy invoices", that is, to earn some departure fees.

Geng Zhi set off at noon today for one day, and there will be at least one day tomorrow, and although the departure fee for two days is not much, it is enough for the family to eat meat twice, or to improve the grade of smoking this month.

But at this moment, Geng Zhi caught a glimpse of a middle-aged man with glasses exiting the guest house, and then running away.

[What's wrong with this man, is he being chased by a dog?] 】

"Take your invoice, turn left when you go out of the county No. 2 Middle School, and walk one mile to get there."

The waiter at the guest house handed Geng Zhi the invoice and stretched out his hand to point him in the direction.

Geng Zhi took a look, isn't this the direction of the guy who was picked up by the dog?

His heart moved, and he panicked for no reason.

[Anyway, it's still early, why don't you go to the county No. 2 middle school first? ] 】

Geng straightened out the door and walked towards the county No. 2 Middle School.

Qingshui County is located in the plain area, the street is long and straight, and you can see Dong Yuejin who is out of breath because of the fork in the road.

Geng Zhi looked left and right, very puzzled.

[There's no dog chasing him!] 】

But the next moment, Geng Zhi saw Dong Yuejin look back at him, and then he ran up again.

"Is he looking at me?"

Geng Zhi subconsciously guessed a possibility, and unconsciously accelerated his pace.

Geng Zhi is far younger than Dong Yuejin, and Dong Yuejin in front of him has run out of breath again, and he has never thrown Geng Zhi off.

Seeing Dong Yuejin enter the county No. 2 Middle School, Geng Zhi still didn't figure it out, but when the doorman Lao Liu stopped him, he shouted that something was wrong.

"What are you doing? Who to look for? ”

"I'm from Dahe Publishing House, looking for Li Ye."

"It's the publisher again, you're in the same group as the guy in front of you?"

“.........”

"Wo Cao~~"

。。。。。。。

When Dong Yuejin rushed to the first class with his mouth wide open and panting, Li Ye and the others were holding their own enamel jars, and Wuyang Wuyang was about to go to the cafeteria to eat, crowding the corridor outside the classroom.

Dong Yuejin struggled to go retrograde in the crowd, killed all the way in front of Li Ye, swallowed his saliva, and said: "Li Ye, I have asked the company, and your manuscript fee can be increased to 8 yuan per thousand words." ”

Li Ye was slightly surprised, a few hours ago it was still 5 pieces, but now it suddenly became 8 pieces, something must have happened during this period.

Otherwise, with the efficiency and rigid thinking of the 80s, this would never have happened.

Since you're in a hurry, then I'm not in a hurry.

Li Ye smiled gently: "Editor Dong, let's not be in a hurry first, eat first, and then talk slowly, okay?" ”

What a fart!

Dong Yuejin took out a stamped contract directly from his schoolbag, took out a pen and handed it to Li Ye, and began to persuade like a devil bewitching a lamb.

"Li Ye, you believe me, no one will pay a higher price than me, your book has nearly 300,000 words, as long as you sign this contract, you can get 2,400 yuan in two days at most."

"Huh~~"

"Oh my God, 2400 pieces wow~"

"What did Li Ye write, and he could get so much money? He...... You can't make mistakes, do you? ”

"If you make a mistake, you can take 2400, you can show me if you make a ......."

The students crowded in the corridor were sensational, and they all stood to look at Li Ye who was surrounded in the middle, feeling like they were looking at a glittering money tree.

2,400 yuan, in the early eighties, you can build several large tiled houses, you can buy more than a dozen bicycles, and you can marry dozens of daughters-in-law.......

The average worker's monthly salary of thirty or forty yuan does not know how many years it takes to save 2,400 yuan.

The reason why Dong Yuejin said this number on the spot was to arouse the shock of the surrounding classmates and take advantage of the situation to smash Li Ye with a hammer.

At this age, when he heard such a large sum of money, he didn't want to be obedient.

Of course, in good conscience, as a newcomer to Li Ye's authorship, the price of 8 yuan per thousand words is indeed not low, and it is only because of the insertion of Dahe Publishing House that Dong Yuejin is forced to play this little trick.

But Li Ye is a person who has seen "big money", how can he be easily moved?

He shook his head, pointed to the classmates around him, and said, "Editor Dong, look here, it's not an environment for conversation, is it?" ”

"I .........."

Dong Yuejin couldn't wait to hold Li Ye now, dragged his fingers, and signed the contract just like Yang Bailao signed the deed of sale.

But looking at Li Ye's harmless smiling face, Dong Yuejin felt a deep powerlessness.

[This kid is just a slippery head........ No, he's a profiteer. 】

"Excuse me, which one...... Is it Li Ye? ”

Geng Zhi appeared at the end of the corridor, his eyes passed over the students crowded together in Wuyang and Wuyang, and accurately stared at the contract in Dong Yuejin's hand.

More than a dozen arms pointed at Li Ye in unison, and the enthusiastic classmates pointed out in unison: "He is Li Ye!" ”

Geng Zhi squeezed over, glanced at Dong Yuejin, stretched out his palm and said, "Hello Li Ye, I am Geng Zhi from Dahe Publishing House, and I am now in charge of the publication of your novel......."

"Another publishing house? It's really strange. ”

The surrounding students stopped eating anymore and all crowded outside the classroom to watch the Western view.

The scene of two publishing houses grabbing a student, they don't even have heard of it, they haven't even heard of it.

Li Ye asked Geng Zhi strangely: "Your publishing house, isn't that Feng Bo docking with me?" ”

Geng Zhi was tired of feeling crooked, but he still explained: "Feng Bo just happened to answer a phone call, in fact, I was responsible from beginning to end." ”

"Oh oh oh," Li Ye was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Then let's eat first, I'll treat you and talk slowly, okay!" ”

。。。。。

Half an hour later, in the sheep soup restaurant outside the school, the three of them were silent and no one spoke.

The scramble scene expected by Li Ye did not appear, Dong Yuejin and Geng Zhi didn't know if they had a good idea, and suddenly formed a tacit understanding and launched a "cold confrontation" with Li Ye

But how could Li Ye, who is a man of two lives, not see through this little trick of the two?

He sucked and drank his mutton soup, said hello to the two and was about to leave.

"You eat slowly, I'll go to class first, you can talk to me alone if you have something, or you can talk together."

Geng Zhi immediately couldn't hold his breath, judging from the way Dong Yuejin ran just now, he was extremely sure that Dong Yuejin would talk to Li Ye alone.

Anyway, the empty promise didn't cost money, so Geng Zhi opened up and said: "Li Ye, can you let me take a look at the manuscript first, please rest assured, the strength of our Dahe Publishing House is first-class, and we can give the best conditions." ”

Li Ye scratched his head and said very modestly: "My manuscript has just been written, and I always feel that there are still some deficiencies, so let's find a few senior people to take a look, and ask you to correct it after confirming the final version!" ”

“.........”

[Do you want someone to take a look?] Are you going to submit to other publishers? 】

Geng Zhi's hateful teeth itched, and Dong Yuejin shook his head helplessly.

There are many publishing houses in China, and although they may not be able to give higher conditions, they will definitely complicate things.

[Give up?] Wouldn't that be a bargain for someone else? 】

Dong Yuejin exhaled a depressed breath and said firmly: "10 yuan, 10 yuan for 1,000 words, this is the sincerity of our Blue Ocean Publishing House." ”

Geng Zhi looked at Dong Yuejin in surprise, and suddenly, as if he had seen a tragic warrior.

Li Ye blinked and asked, "What about the remuneration for printing a number of manuscripts?" ”

[Do you still want to print a few manuscripts? 】

Geng Zhi looked at Li Ye with wide eyes, and suddenly felt that letting Feng Bo and Li Ye dock was the perfect match for Wang Ba and mung beans.

Dong Yuejin smiled and said, "There is something about the remuneration of the number of prints, I can't answer you immediately.

But we've recently established contact with several literary media outlets on Hong Kong Island, and we can recommend your novel to you.

The royalties over there are very high, and if they fancy them, it is possible to say not to mention thousands, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands. ”

"Huh~, do you believe this?"

Geng sneered and turned his face to the side.

Because the island city occupies 80% of the province's export share, it is indeed easier to establish contact with the outside world, but how honest is that connection?

What's more, how can a novel with obvious colors like "Latent" be taken by the media on Hong Kong Island?

Not only did Geng not believe it, but even Dong Yuejin himself didn't believe it.

But the two were surprised to find that the treacherous thief turned out to be ...... It seems like...... Believed.

Li Ye's eyes brightened in an instant.

Grass, there is this kind of relationship, you said it earlier!

A novel like "Latent" is definitely not going to work.

But I have "Looking for Qin"!

What tomb robbery notes, ghost blowing lamp, what type do you want?

It's really not good, and there are all kinds of sadomasochistic love novels of the female frequency, Aunt Qiong Yao, let's have a friendly exchange?

per 10,000 copies, five percent, 90 years to 8,
