After her rebirth, the first thing she did was retrieve the marriage report, find ‘Third Sister’ to get the IOU, and then head to the Lu family to annul the engagement with the scumbag.
In he...
That's true, but she ran away in her previous life and never went back. Later, she changed her identity, and people in her hometown had no idea whether she was alive or dead.
She couldn't tell what her life would be like.
Lin Yuyao thought for a moment and said, "She now thinks that we should live apart for two to three years first."
"Well, that's fine. Living apart for two or three years will help with the divorce."
"I rented Sister Le Yi's house to her for 20 yuan a month. I told Sister Le Yi about it."
"Oh, just rent it."
"Let me tell you something." Lin Yuyao said.
Fu Huaiyi felt that she really had to tell him everything.
She was looking for an opportunity to talk to him.
Lin Yuyao will not write the manuscript tonight. After dinner, the two of them curled up on the sofa and watched TV.
There is a spacious living room with a comfortable sofa and a fan when it is hot, so you can watch TV while enjoying the fan.
In 1989, few families could survive such days.
Living a comfortable life now, Lin Yuyao feels more and more that she was mentally ill in her previous life.
…
The next day, Ye Xiaotong came to work. After she washed herself, everyone saw what the girl looked like.
She doesn't look bad, and is of the same type as Lin Yuyao, with fair skin and big eyes.
But he was terribly thin, his eyes looked too big, and his skin was pale.
Seeing her like this, Song Qin asked the restaurant owner to add two more portions of meat.
"Poor thing, you're so thin, eat quickly."
This made Ye Xiaotong very uneasy and she looked at Lin Yuyao.
Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "Eat it. This is a working meal. You will get used to it slowly."
Ye Xiaotong nodded, then lowered her head and started eating.
After Lin Yuyao finished her meal, she began to introduce her to their magazine and their work content.
"There are only three of us at the moment. Sister Song is mainly responsible for finding content and negotiating with people. I am responsible for writing content and typesetting, and you are responsible for some miscellaneous matters. For example, cleaning the office, sweeping and mopping the floor, and our daily working meals. You can do these first, and you may be asked to participate in organizing the manuscript later."
"Okay, I understand."
"Make sure the house is clean and tidy, the bookshelves are in order, and remember to water the plants so they don't die."
"OK."
The tasks have been arranged and everyone has their own responsibilities.
As the first issue was successfully published and sold well in the market, they gradually became busy.
It’s called a monthly magazine, but it still has to make money.
The first issue is published as a test, and if it sells well, the second issue may be published. Once it is on the right track, it can be truly realized as a monthly issue.
It is easy to write a serialized novel, but the difficult part is finding the content.
Lin Yuyao was just worried when Ye Xiaotong took a letter from her.
"Yuyao, look, this was sent to us, and we don't know what it is."
"Let me see."
The recipient is Nebula Society, and it is not a private letter.
Lin Yuyao thought of a possibility and hurriedly opened the letter.
Sure enough, it was a submission.
After their first issue sold well, they finally received their first submission.
A person's brain is limited. With such rich magazine content, Lin Yuyao and Song Qin cannot complete the monthly magazine on their own. It would be exhausting.
So when she arranged the publication, she published detailed submission requirements.
Including the subject matter, word count, format, etc. of the manuscript.
At the same time, their addresses will be published as contact information to facilitate authors to submit articles.
The first thing I received was a set of cartoon comics.
The painting style is childish, but the content of each painting is very interesting.
Lin Yuyao laughed out loud after watching these and decided to use this set of comics in the second issue.
But as for the price... we have to wait for Song Qin to come back to discuss it.
When Song Qin came back in the afternoon, Lin Yuyao showed her the comics.
"Sister Song, take a look at the first submission we received. The author is a thirteen-year-old girl."
"But it's a rare perspective from a child's perspective, which can easily resonate with our target customers."
"Right? From now on, more than half of our content will be contributed by children. What do you think is a suitable price for this set of comics?"
"This is the first submission we received... I need to think about it."
Originally she wanted to say, why not set a higher price.
But on second thought, that’s not right. Your first pricing may be related to future pricing.
If we set the price high this time, we can't set it too low next time the girl sends in her manuscript, right?
"Thirty for these paintings, and we'll send her a set of brushes. After all, this is the first submission we received, and she's a young girl, so we should encourage her."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
When it comes to pricing, Song Qin definitely knows better.
In the afternoon, Song Qin went downstairs and got a set of the best paintbrushes, which were not cheap.
She said to Lin Yuyao, "Look at the girl's paintings. They don't look like they were painted casually. She must have been taught by someone special. Her family is well-off. People who buy ordinary brushes may not use them, so I asked Zhou Qin to get the best brushes from their store."
Lin Yuyao agreed and put the bill down.
The royalties and paintbrushes were put into a bag and handed over to Ye Xiaotong.
"Go to the post office across the street and mail it to this address. For small remittances like this, you don't need to go to the bank, you can mail it at the post office. Ask for the details, as there will be many such cases in the future."
"good."
Song Qin smiled and said, "Yuyao, why are you so enthusiastic? Normally, it takes one to three months to get paid for a submission."
Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "This is the first manuscript we received. Be more positive and make the little girl happy."
The girl's family may not be short of money, but what her family gives her is still different from what she earns herself.
As the magazine sold more, they received more and more manuscripts.
The subjects are not only comics, but also various short essays, etc., and the quality varies.
Only after Lin Yuyao and Song Qin reviewed it was it included in the new magazine.
All those that pass the review will be recorded separately.
I will wait until the book is officially published before transferring the money to them.
Ye Xiaotong saw some people taking fifty, eighty, and even one hundred.
She found Lin Yuyao that day and asked her hesitantly if she could write.
Lin Yuyao said, "Of course."
She remembered that Ye Xiaotong wrote good essays when she was in school.
"But try not to write during work hours. Write after get off work when you get home."
These things need to be made clear in advance, otherwise you will become addicted to writing and write from work to after get off work. Who will do the work here?
Should she pay her royalties or a salary?
Ye Xiaotong nodded hurriedly, "Okay, I'll write it after get off work, then it's settled."
Lin Yuyao smiled and said, "Okay, when you're done, just give it to Sister Song for review."
Song Qin was originally an editor. She might not be able to write, but she had a good vision.
After hearing about Ye Xiaotong's plan, she smiled and said, "Of course, I will accept any good article."
"Then...can I write something more realistic?"
"Oh? What do you want to write?"
Ye Xiaotong said: "I want to write down my experience with a little bit of adaptation."
