Fuwenzhai.
Shopkeeper Zhao, who had been perfunctory in his attitude just now, was now so excited that he could hardly control himself and his eyes were shining.
He could even guess the scene of making a lot of money after the publication of this book!
But I never thought about it.
Zhuang Jin changed his attitude: "Spread it all over Nanyang Prefecture? Isn't that a bit too radical? Forget it, I'll think about it and don't rush to publish it for now."
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Zhao's face turned bitter and he quickly begged for mercy: "It is my old man who is blind, please don't blame me, Young Master! Your story is truly brilliant, there is nothing like it in heaven or on earth!"
Zhuang Jin then smiled and said, "Then how much do you think such an excellent book is worth?"
Upon hearing this, Pei Jian, Li Heyu and Gao Qi all looked at Manager Zhao.
Only Cui Xian was leisurely drinking tea and eating cakes.
This is the benefit of having an elder brother!
He doesn't have to worry about anything from writing, publishing, listing, distribution, or even bargaining for royalties.
Just take the money.
Then become famous in Nanyang County!
Shopkeeper Zhao was a shrewd man. He smiled flatteringly and said, "If you buy it outright at a flat price, such an excellent script would be worth 20 taels! But if you go to the boss, if the boss is happy, the price he offers will be far beyond my estimation."
What bullshit is this!
Zhuang Jin rolled his eyes and smiled as he read the letter randomly: "Oh my god, you said this book is worth 30 taels? Shopkeeper Zhao has a keen eye for talent!"
Shopkeeper Zhao:?
Before he could refute.
Pei Jian also smiled and nodded: "That's right, that's right, 40 taels to buy the storybook, shopkeeper Zhao is generous."
Li Heyu followed up with, "What? You said you want to bid 50 taels?"
Gao Qi made the final decision very impartially: "I'll give you a number, 60 taels, no more! Any more will not be appropriate."
Zhuang Jin stood up and walked towards the cash box: "Deal! I'll go get the money."
Shopkeeper Zhao's face turned pale. "My dear ancestors! How can this be worth 60 taels? It's almost worth a house in Nanyang County!"
The shopkeeper looked nervous.
Cui Xian then said, "Big brother, brothers, 60 taels is too much. I cannot take advantage of this."
Shopkeeper Zhao heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Cui Xian gratefully: "May I ask who this young master is?"
Zhuang Jin said proudly, "Cui Xian, we are brothers. The script you are holding was written by him. The four of us are just ghostwriters."
How could someone so young be able to write such a dramatic story?
The future is limitless!
Shopkeeper Zhao was surprised.
After taking a closer look at Cui Xian and seeing the four young masters' warm attitude, he gritted his teeth and said, "Young Master, I will pay you 30 taels of royalties first. From now on, for every copy of this storybook sold, Fu Wen Zhai will give you a 20% commission. We will settle the payment at the end of each month. How about that?"
This is a very generous price.
If Cui Xian had come by himself today, Manager Zhao would never have given this number.
Pei Jian and others looked at Cui Xian.
Cui Xian didn't hesitate and nodded with a smile: "Thank you very much, boss."
After a cup of tea.
Cui Xian walked out of Fuwenzhai with a huge sum of 30 taels of cash in his arms.
Or in other words, "a small half property in Nanyang County".
Considering his age, it is really a huge sum of money!
There are eight people in the Cui family in Hexi Village. Even if they work hard and don't eat or drink for ten years, they may not be able to save so much money.
Feeling the bulging wallet in his arms, Cui Xian felt a little excited.
After traveling through time, he finally earned his first pot of gold.
It is now almost June, my mother is about to give birth, and the family is busy with the summer harvest.
After being away from home for a long time, it's time to find a day to return home with wealth and glory!
Of course, Cui Xian also knew that he could earn so much money only thanks to the help of his good brothers.
So he waved his hand proudly: "Today, I will treat my eldest brother and the three brothers to a good meal!"
Seeing Cui Xian happy, Pei Jian and his friends did not want to spoil the fun and shouted that they wanted to go and "eat at a rich man's house".
Wait for the young boys to leave cheering.
Shopkeeper Zhao looked at their backs, especially at Cui Xian, and murmured, "This Master Cui Xian will definitely be a big shot in the future."
He is young, talented, and has a close relationship with the four distinguished young masters.
How could he fail to achieve success in the future?
After leaving home in Hexi Village, Cui Xian worked as a little servant, hanging out in the circle of young masters and was very inconspicuous.
Even though he was liked by the four elders of the powerful families, he had not yet been able to demonstrate his talents.
Now, the time is ripe.
The little book boy Cui Xian will officially become famous and appear in the public eye.
Start shining!
·
That day, Cui Xian spent two taels of silver to treat his brothers to a feast.
The big brothers don’t eat for nothing.
After Li Heyu returned home, he hurriedly found his father and said, "Dad, you haven't forgotten what I told you before!"
Craftsman Li was reading "The Legend of the Seven Heroes of Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit" with fascination. Upon hearing this, he immediately assured: "Don't worry, my son! The workers in our seven printing shops have already started printing this storybook day and night! You wrote it so well, your father is really proud of you!"
Li Heyu blushed as he was praised by his own father for the first time in his life.
But I was happy in my heart!
The other side.
The richest man in Nanyang was even more excited than Zhuang Jin: "Within seven days, all bookstores in Nanyang must have at least twenty copies of The Legend of the Seven Heroes of Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit! My son has made it! My son has made it! Hahahaha!"
Zhuang Jin pouted, pretending to be disgusted by his father's fussing, but in fact his mouth was almost stretched to his ears.
Gao family.
The captain is feeling guilty!
His son Gao Qi was angry with him: "Li Heyu, Zhuang Jin, and Pei Jian's families are all helping out with The Legend of the Seven Heroes of Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit, but you are the worst! You only have a bunch of useless soldiers under you!"
