Chapter 24: Hundreds of thousands of scrap papers
"Xiaoyou, look at the end of your second volume, there should be a third and fourth volume in the follow-up, right?" Jiang Yong asked Lin Zhou again, although he was very obsessed with studying Lin Zhou's writing, but the wonderful content of this novel also made him have a strong interest in following up.
Old age is boring, for a high-level alchemist who is rich and rivals the country, glory and wealth have become floating clouds, and everything in the world is difficult to arouse his interest anymore. Lin Zhou's booklet made his eyes shine, if he could have some such different pastimes and pursuits in his spare time, he could make the long and boring life taste again.
"Yes, as long as someone likes to watch it, or ...... Someone is willing to pay money to sponsor the cost of Xuan paper and carving, but I can write it all the time. Lin Zhou and Jiang Yong talked for a while. Those online novels in the previous life, as long as you subscribe to Haolu, which one didn't write it for millions of words before you stopped?
"That's fine...... If Xiaoyou is willing to write it down, the old man can buy these manuscripts for two dollars, take them back to the city of Yunfeng County, and ask the old man's acquaintances to give them to people of insight in the pharmacy and market to read after the carving is out, I don't know what Xiaoyou wants?" Jiang Yong asked Lin Zhou.
"Yes. Of course, Lin Zhou agreed, but Jiang Yong's doing so saved him a lot of money spent on Xuan carving.
"Little friend, these manuscripts...... There is also the manuscript of the future book, if it is entrusted to the old man, how much will the remuneration probably be more appropriate? Of course, if the little friend has other requirements, he can also put it forward, as long as the old man can do it, everything is easy to say. "Jiang Yong hadn't done this before, and he didn't know what Lin Zhou thought, so he had to understand it first
Jiang Yong's main purpose is, of course, to hope that Lin Zhou can write down all the time and not be a eunuch.
"Mr. Qiu likes these manuscripts so much, even if he just takes them, and as for the remuneration, he will be exempted. I only have two requirements, one is that the original content of the text must be engraved according to the original content I wrote, and the text cannot be deleted, and the second is that the more copies of the inscription, the better, and I hope that more people in the future will appreciate the charm and power of this text. Lin Zhou said to Jiang Yong.
"Of course these two items are fine, the number of copies of Xuan Carving ...... Because of an old incident two years ago, the old man's house happened to have more than 100,000 pieces of waste Xuan paper, although they were all used, but they can be used for the engraving of these articles after returning to the furnace. It's just that Xiaoyou, you really don't get paid at all?" Jiang Yong didn't expect Lin Zhou to only make these two requests.
"I have an immature idea, but I can think about it with the old gentleman......" Lin Zhou heard that Jiang Yong's family actually had more than 100,000 pieces of Xuan paper, and he couldn't help but be surprised, which means thousands or even tens of thousands of pamphlets!
But if this matter wants to last for a long time, it can't let this old man Qiu lose money all the time, isn't it? Lin Zhou didn't know the true identity of Jiang Yong, and naturally he didn't know that these hundreds of thousands of pieces of Xuan paper were nothing to Jiang Yong.
"Xiaoyou has nothing to say. ”
"That's right, since the old gentleman is interested, we might as well ......" Lin Zhou told Jiang Yong about his preliminary idea, which was his Xuan paper reading rental plan.
If the wealthy people in the county were interested in pamphlets, they could rent them out for free, and periodically recycle their black paper for a small fee in exchange for the next volume of the novel. If these rich people are willing to give some extra tips, the next page of the novel can also make a tip list for them, the top ten can be listed, and the top two tips are the top.
If they have enough money, the novel can even make some text advertisements for the businesses of the wealthy families.
In the pharmacies and markets of his acquaintances, Mr. Qiu said that in places with large traffic flows, these pamphlets could be dismantled and posted in conspicuous places on the exterior walls outside the store, or some wooden newspaper kiosks could be built separately, so that the people who came and went could read them for free.
Those who have money spend money to see it, and those who don't have money can also see it in these public places. Fees from the wealthy and money earned from advertising can offset some of the costs of Xuan paper and engraving.
"If the recovered silver taels are still profitable if the cost of the Xuan Paper is removed, then you and I can divide it fifty-fifty, old gentleman. Lin Zhou rowed his plan to Jiang Yong. To put it bluntly, it is the set of Chinese network at the beginning of the previous life, and Lin Zhou adapted it slightly and then moved the entire ancient brain to this life.
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! Really wonderful! Xiaoyou is really an extraordinary genius! Not only is the calligraphy of the article amazing, but the whimsical ideas are endless, and the old man really admires it!" Although Jiang Yong didn't care about the money, after listening to Lin Zhou's idea just now, he was full of praise for Lin Zhou's clever mind again.
If you can make money from this, it will definitely be better than investing in it all the time, so that the work can continue. The silver earned can give some additional rewards to the apprentices in charge of the carving, so as to increase their motivation to work.
Distributing recycling pamphlets and posting Xuan paper everywhere all require manpower, and if you can be self-sufficient in this matter, you don't need to invest more money in addition, Jiang Yong is naturally happy to see it.
As Jiang Yong's senior alchemist, the prestige accumulated among the wealthy people of the big family in Yunfeng County, it is conceivable that once these rich people like the content of this booklet, there will definitely not be a few people who are willing to pay money. Accumulate a lot, and maybe you can really make money.
The two talked very speculatively, at noon Lin Zhou invited Jiang Yong into Linjiabao, and after having lunch together, the two talked for half an hour, and agreed on the delivery location of the third volume.
Lin Zhou was in a good mood, and rewarded Lin Meng with a few taels of silver. After the matter with Jiang Yong was finalized, a big problem was solved for him, and as long as he continued to write in the future, the experience points of ridicule would become more and more. If this model can succeed in making money, Lin Zhou will even distribute this pamphlet to the imperial capital, knowing that there are millions of people in Ludao, and the influence is not comparable to Yunfeng County.
Let's take this step first, I don't know if Lu Dao can succeed!
'Ding Dong', Lin Zhou's Flame Fist has also been upgraded to the second level, and after his calligrapher skill is upgraded to the second level, he will transfer the taunt experience points to the Flame Fist, the second level calligrapher is temporarily enough, and improving his strength at this stage is the most important thing.
......
After leaving the Bucket River Post Station with Lin Meng, the two wandered all the way to the town center square, which was very lively at this time.
Although this is a world of martial arts cultivation, things like killing people and setting fires on the surface are still not allowed, and if there is a dispute between families, you can choose to solve it in an open competition. Of course, this must be agreed by both sides, but since it has been decided to compete in public, each party will be responsible for any casualties in such an open competition.
It seems that there are two people in the town who are very unhappy with each other today, so they choose to solve the problem by openly competing in the town center square.
Lin Zhou's memory gradually recovered, and when he approached the ring of the competition, he quickly remembered the identities of the two people when he saw the two sides of the competition.
I didn't expect it to be two people with a certain status. One is Guo Xiong, the owner of Guojiazhuang in Barrelhe Town, and the other is He Fei, the great elder of Hejiabao in Buckethe Town.
Whoever wins this contest will be the mine's.
Because these two people are both cultivators in the middle of the seventh order of Xuanqi, they are relatively powerful martial artists in Barrel River Town, so after the news of the competition spread, many people came to watch the battle.
Among them are the two sisters of the Su family, Su Muling and Su Muqin, the two beauties appear here, and there are naturally young men of the right age in Barrel River Town who are like flies, including Lin Tao from Lin Jiabao, who is unwillingly talking to Su Muqin with a flattering expression.
