Chapter 43 Do you believe it? I believe it!(1/2)

"Please give me a receipt. Can you ask, how to get to the No. 2 Middle School of Qingshui County?"

Gentleman handed the money to the guesthouse collector, took back his letter of introduction, and then asked for a way.

At noon this day, he suddenly received "good news". After comprehensive research by the club, he decided that it would be up to him to contact "Seven Inch Blade" and finalize the publication of "Luxing" as soon as possible.

I was so angry that I almost ejaculated on the spot.

[Isn’t this asking me to wipe Feng Bo’s butt? Whoever pulls the poop will eat it back]

But in the end, Jin Zhi finally endured this tone.

Because he was really optimistic about the book "Louching" and was eager to fight for it again.

But Feng Bo was just scheming and didn't explain clearly to Jin Zhi about calling Principal Chang.

So Gengzhi didn't know that someone from a publishing house had come to find Li Ye. After arriving in Qingshui County, he thought about staying in first and having a start fee.

Back then, the unit was on a business trip, and there was no way to "buy invoices", that is, to earn some departure expenses.

Even if I leave at noon today, I will have at least one day tomorrow. Although the departure fee for two days is not much, it is enough for my family to eat two times, or improve the level of smoking this month.

But at this moment, I saw a middle-aged man wearing glasses quit the guesthouse and ran away.

[What's wrong with this person? Was he chased by a dog?]

"Get your invoice, and turn left at the county No. 2 Middle School, and walk a mile away."

The waiter at the guesthouse handed the invoice to Gengzhi and reached out to point him in the direction.

I looked straightforward, isn’t this the direction of the guy who was chased by a dog?

He felt a little nervous and for no reason.

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

Gentle straight out of the door and walked towards the county No. 2 Middle School.

Qingshui County is located in a plain area, with long and straight streets. You can see Dong Yuejin, who was breathing step by step because of the stuttering.

I looked around with my heart, very confused.

[No dog chases him!]

But the next moment, Gengzhi saw Dong Yuejin look back at him, and then jump up again.

"Is he looking at me?"

He straightforwardly and subconsciously guessed a possibility and unconsciously accelerated his pace.

Gentleman is far younger than Dong Yuejin, and Dong Yuejin in front of him is out of breath and never gets rid of Gentleman.

Seeing Dong Yue enter the No. 2 Middle School of the County, Gengzhi still didn't understand, but when the guard Lao Liu stopped him, he screamed that something was wrong.

"What are you doing? Who are you looking for?"

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

"It's from the publishing house again, are you from the same group as the man in front?"

""

"Wacao~~"

.........

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

Dong Yuejin fought back in the crowd, rushed to Li Ye all the way, swallowed, and said, "Li Ye, I have asked the community for instructions. Your royalty can be increased to 8 yuan, a thousand words."

Li Ye was a little surprised. He was still 5 yuan a few hours ago, but now he suddenly became 8 yuan. What must have happened during this period.

Otherwise, with the office efficiency and rigid thinking of the 1980s, this would never have happened.

Since you are anxious, I won’t.

Li Ye smiled gently and said, "Editor Dong, let's not be anxious first, have a meal first, and then chat slowly, okay?"

What a bullshit!

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

"Li Ye, believe me, no one will pay higher prices than me. Your book has nearly 300,000 words. As long as you sign this contract, you can get a royalty of 2,400 yuan in up to two days."

"Wow~~"

"My God, 2400 yuan~"

"What did Li Ye write about? He can get so much money? He won't make mistakes, right?"

"You can get 2,400 if you make a mistake. Please show me one."

The students crowded in the corridor were sensational. They all looked at Li Ye who was surrounded by them, and they felt like they were looking at a shining money tree.

2,400 yuan, in the early 1980s, several large tiled houses could be built, more than a dozen bicycles could be bought, and dozens of wives could be married.

An ordinary worker earns thirty or forty yuan a month, but I don’t 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 classmates around him, and he took advantage of the opportunity to shock Li Ye with one blow.

Just a young man of this day, when he heard that he had such a large sum of money, he was not jealous of Venus and obedient.

Of course, based on conscience, as the new author of Li Ye, the price of 8 yuan for a thousand words is indeed not low. It was only because of the insertion of Dahe Publishing House that Dong Yuejin forced this little trick.

But Li Ye has seen people with "big money", so how could he be easily impressed?

He shook his head, pointed to the classmates around him and said, "Editor Dong, look at this place, it is not a conversation environment, right?"

"I"

Dong Yuejin wanted to hold Li Ye down now, drag his fingers over, and sign the contract just like Yang Bailao signed the contract.

But looking at Li Ye's harmless smiling face, Dong Yuejin felt deeply powerless.

[This kid is just a slippery man, he is a profiteer.]

"Who is Li Ye?"

He appeared straightforwardly at the end of the corridor, his eyes crossed Wuyang and the students who were crowded together in 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 in unison: "He is Li Ye!"

Gengzhi squeezed over, glanced at Dong Yuejin, stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Li Ye, I am Gengzhi from Dahe Publishing House, and I am now responsible for the publication of your novel."

"Is there another publishing house? It's so rare."

The students around him stopped making meals, and they all squeezed outside the classroom to see the Western scenery.

There was a scene where two publishers snatched a student, and they didn't even hear about it.

Li Ye asked Gengzhi strangely: "Isn't your publishing house the one Feng Bo connected with me?"

Gentleman felt sick, but explained: "Feng Bo just happened to answer a call, but in fact I was responsible for it from beginning to end."

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

.....

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

The scene of competition that Li Ye expected did not appear. Dong Yuejin and Gengzhi were in tune with each other, but suddenly they formed a tacit understanding and started a "cold confrontation" with Li Ye.

But how could Li Ye, who had been a man for two lives, not see through these little tricks of them?

He sucked his mutton soup and said hello to the two of them and was about to leave.

"You eat slowly, I'll go to class first. If you have any questions, you can just talk to me alone, and you can chat together."

Gengzheng immediately couldn't hold back his anger. Judging from the way Dong Yuejin was running just now, he was extremely sure that Dong Yuejin would talk to Li Ye alone.

Anyway, the short seller’s promise didn’t have money, so he said openly: “Student Li Ye, can I let me read the manuscript first? Please rest assured that our Dahe Publishing House is first-class and can give the best conditions.”

Li Ye scratched his head and said modestly: "My manuscript has just been written. I always feel that there are still some shortcomings. I'd better find a few senior people to take a look and ask you to correct me after confirming the final version!"

""

[Are you looking for someone to take a look? Are you going to contribute to other publishers?]

With his straightforward hatred, Dong Yuejin shook his head helplessly.

There are many domestic publishing houses. Although they may not be able to give higher conditions, they will definitely make things complicated.

[Give up? Wouldn't that give up and let others get a bargain?]

Dong Yuejin exhaled a breath of depression and said firmly: "10 yuan, 10 yuan, 10 yuan, this is the sincerity of our Lanhai Publishing House."

Looking at Dong Yuejin in surprise, he suddenly seemed to see a tragic warrior.

Li Ye blinked and asked, "Where are the royalties for printing?"

[You still need to print a few remunerations?]

He stared at Li Ye with his eyes wide open, and suddenly felt that Feng Bo and Li Ye were the perfect match for the turtle to match mung beans.

Dong Yuejin smiled and said, "There is something about printing the royalties, I can't answer you immediately.
