"Sir, let me inform you first. Please wait a moment." The beautiful woman at the front desk was very polite.

In less than two minutes, the front desk called to confirm and let the security guard pass, and pointed out the location of Li Wen's office.

"Dong dong dong!"

Li Wen knocked on the office door.

"Please come in."

A middle-aged man's voice came from the room, and Li Wen opened the door and walked in directly.

"You were introduced here by Lao Huang, right? Come and sit down, would you like some tea or coffee?" The middle-aged man was obviously taken aback when he saw Li Wen, and then asked enthusiastically.

"I'll excuse you, let's have some tea!" Li Wen said humbly.

Then the two of them exchanged pleasantries again, and they both had the same surname as Li, and they got a lot closer as they chatted.

Li Wen didn't hesitate, he introduced himself and showed Li Xiangyang some of the works he had brought.

"Xiao Li, your works are all good, but you are still a newcomer in Xiangdao. Can you accept the lower fee at the beginning?" Li Xiangyang asked with a smile.

"Uncle Li, can you give me a rough idea of ​​the price per thousand words?" Li Xiangyang and Huang Bo were friends, and Li Wen also followed the snake and called him Uncle Li.

"How about six yuan for a thousand words first? This price is not low. Mr. Ni only paid a few yuan for a thousand words when he first entered the industry." Li Xiangyang pondered for a moment and said.

Li Wen didn't expect the price to be so low. It was only one or two yuan higher than when he first wrote it a few years ago.

"Uncle Li, if I want to publish a book at my own expense, I wonder what your newspaper's split method is?" Li Wen thought for a while and asked directly.

"Ha! You want to publish a book at your own expense? Really?" Li Xiangyang was stunned when he heard this and said in disbelief.

Li Xiangyang didn't expect that this kid from mainland China was so loud and wanted to fly before he left.

"Publishing a book is not cheap. The cost of a book is one Hong Kong dollar. Based on the minimum printing requirement of 10,000 copies, plus the ISBN, the publicity and distribution fee will cost at least 30,000 yuan.

With this kind of money, you can buy an 800-square-foot house, which is not worth it for a newcomer." Li Xiangyang did the math and advised.

"Uncle Li, I will first publish two 100,000-word works in your company to build up my reputation, and then cooperate with your company to publish a book.

My book has sold more than 300,000 copies in mainland China, so the risk of not selling it is very small.

When the time comes, I will publish it at my own expense, and your company will help me publicize it and divide it into seven parts for me and three for you." Li Wen gestured with his fingers and said.

"Okay, Xiao Li, you have said so. I am stopping it because I don't want to do this business anymore. I really didn't expect it! Xiao Li, you just came from the mainland and your courage is so extraordinary." Li Xiangyang looked at Li Wen and said in admiration.

.

"hehe!"

"Uncle Li made you laugh. Boy, I'm scared of poverty, so I just want to give it a try.

These days, the brave will be overwhelmed and the timid will be starved. What’s more, I have confidence in my book. Even if it fails, I won’t be afraid. In the worst case, I will continue writing novels.” Li Wen smiled wildly.

Next, Li Wen took out a gangster novel that became popular in mainland China in later generations, and the gangster student handed it to Li Xiangyang.

Of course, this novel was adapted by Li Wen. In the later period, it was about being a gangster and not having a good end, and trying to persuade people to be good. He didn't want to be labeled as a gangster author, as it was easy to be a bad name on the streets in Hong Kong.

"Xiao Li, was this novel really written by you? It's so immersive! It's like being in a real dark society.

Especially the content at the end is simply a stroke of genius. It turns evil into good and encourages people to do good. It is really amazing." Li Xiangyang read it for an hour and clenched his fists with excitement.

"Just like the summary I wrote, the right path in the world is subject to vicissitudes of life!" Li Wen crossed his legs and forced Gram Man.

"Xiao Li, I think your novel has more than 100,000 words! Do you have any more?" Li Xiangyang asked with a smile.

"I'll post these first, I haven't written the follow-up yet! You know, this kind of literature cannot be published in mainland China." Li Wen pretended to be innocent and spread his hands.

Li Wen has kept a lot of manuscripts in recent years, but he doesn't want to pay Xingdao a very low manuscript fee.

"Okay! I'll send it out tomorrow to test the market's reaction.

Also, didn't you say you would send two copies? Where's the other one?" Li Xiangyang was already impressed by Li Wen's writing style.

"I also followed the trend of another one, which is the most popular martial arts novel nowadays." Li Wen did not give up the masterpiece, but took out the first two chapters of a later fine martial arts novel, Six Doors, and thought about it.

He also wanted to use the second book to negotiate with Xingdao for publication and manuscript fees! If he gave it to Li Xiangyang too early, wouldn't it be like a meat bun beating a dog?

There are only 6,000 words in total. As a veteran editor, Li Xiangyang finished reading it in less than five minutes. Li Wen looked at it and it seemed that he still had more to say.

However, he also understood what Li Wen meant. He knew that Li Wen was not a newbie and that he could not rely on deception, so he had no choice but to give up.

When he walked out of Sing Tao Daily, Li Wen pocketed 600 Hong Kong dollars, which was the royalties for the underworld students.

After coming to a tabloid stop and buying some of the biggest newspapers from the newspaper man, Li Wen returned to the rental house.

"According to the latest news from this newspaper, three containers containing clothing disappeared inexplicably at Wan Chai Port last night.

These three containers of clothes were exported to Ami by the Zhaoji Clothing Factory on the island, and were worth US$50,000.

The loss of goods this time made Ms. Zhao Ji burst into tears and bluntly said that this was her family’s last fortune, Sing Tao Daily reported the latest.”

At the end of the text, there is a picture of a beautiful woman crying, which made Li Wen feel a little sad.

"What a sin I have committed! It seems that I can't hurt these poor ladies anymore, otherwise they will cry to death." Li Wen said to himself with a smile.

Li Wen grinned as he looked at the newspaper in his hand. He never imagined that his random actions last night would lead to the bankruptcy of a family.

"It's better to compensate this young lady! It would be bad if the whole family is sold to a black workshop. After all, it is his own fault." Li Wen decided to compensate him. After all, he is a good person.

In the evening, Li Wen, dressed in black, came to the vicinity of Zhao Ji Clothing Factory and used his mental power to find Miss Zhao who was sitting in the room preparing to hang herself.

"Oh! Fortunately I came early, otherwise there would be another bachelor in the world." Li Wen yelled.

Li Wen used his mental strength to pick up a measuring ruler from the room and slapped it on Miss Zhao's round buttocks.

"ah!"

The beautiful Zhao Xiaozhi trembled in shock and screamed.

At this time, Li Wen happened to use his mental power to deliver the package containing jewelry to the door of Miss Zhao's house, and hit the door with the package.

Zhao Xiaozhi, who had some pain in the buttocks, had no intention of dying at this time, so he quickly untied the ribbon of the house beam and hid it.

"There's no one here! Did I hear it wrong? Hey! Where did this package come from?" Zhao Xiaozhi looked around and scratched his head in wonder.

Turning around and looking down, she saw a small yellow cloth bag placed at the door. Zhao Xiaozhi curiously took the bag into the room.

"Wow! There are so many jewelry pieces." Zhao Xiaozhi opened the cloth bag and was so surprised that she could stuff an egg into her mouth.ωωw..net

She was really confused as to how someone could give her such an expensive thing. "Could it be my own licking dog?" Zhao Xiaozhi thought to herself.

After gesturing for a while, Zhao Xiaozhi finally found a note under the jewelry.

"Beautiful Miss Zhao, you look really ugly when you hang yourself! Don't look at it, I've already left.

I took the container yesterday, and the jewelry is worth 60,000 US dollars, which is considered as compensation for you, unknown person."

Zhao Xiaozhi was ashamed and angry after reading Li Wen's message. She ran to the yard and started to curse, but Li Wen had already left.

Li Wen was still a little funny when he returned to the rental house. The scene of spanking Zhao Xiaozhi with a ruler just now made him very excited.
