Chapter 937 [936] Nirvana of the Republic of China 2 five thousand

Chapter 937 [936] Nirvana 2 of the Republic of China (Five Thousand)

The woman was called Riemann, and she asked her to call her mother. Others called her Mann mother, but it didn't matter to Ma Lu. She was here to do the task anyway, just call her.

In her opinion, the words of ordinary people fell into the woman's ears, but they were moved to tears.

It may also be because she felt that she was safe when she was old, so the woman asked Ma Lu to take care of her at home, so she went out to inquire about her job.

But if she had a good job, she wouldn't have washed clothes and picked up garbage to make a living. But she worked hard for her to work. After searching for three days, she finally found a job in a restaurant in the city that could control food and accommodation, but no wages.

"I'm sorry, I'm not capable of letting you live with a bunch of kids. There's nothing I can do about it. I really can't find a suitable one. It's just because I'm their fellow villager."

Not giving wages means not being able to make money, not being able to make money, and not being able to save money. To be honest, she is not willing to do it.

"Mom, do you have money? I'll try other ways to write, such as writing novels."

Some sad love stories during the Republic of China period were quite popular. No matter how bad they were, they could write ancient novels. Although this era was turbulent, with family and country, there were also circles loved by aristocratic women. In addition to drinking coffee, singing, drinking, dancing, reading novels, they could also be called daily entertainment.

As the saying goes, there is a market. This is definitely more profitable than running over to brush the plate.

But Rieman shook his head awkwardly: "There is no money, and I only earn enough for myself in my daily life. I'm sorry Lulu."

"What's wrong with this? In this way, you don't have to worry about my affairs. I'll think of a solution myself. If I really can't find a job, I'll clean the plate again. Do you think it's okay?"

"Okay, okay, you can arrange whatever you want. I am also powerless."

Ma Lu felt that her health was a little better, so she cleaned up and went to the bookstore. There were people selling pens, ink, paper and inkstones here. She didn't scheming. When she got there, she asked the boss directly how much it cost to add a set of pens, inkstones. When she heard about two silver dollars, she didn't feel too surprised.

First of all, there are not many people in this era, and they are not something that ordinary people can think of. The so-called rare things are expensive, and this is how the price comes from.

From ancient times to the present, this path of studying has been made by spending money, and she is the person with the most say.

So she asked the shopkeeper to give her a knife to paper, a set of pens, inkstones, and pens are still rare now, and not many people use them, and ordinary scholars can't afford it.

The shopkeeper looked her up and down, "I'm not looking down on you, you're sure you can get two silver dollars?"

Although she received translations a bit slow, it did not affect normal communication.

"I can't take it out, but I can write novels here. After writing the novel, the shopkeeper will see how much money is worth. If I can't pay back the paper I use, I will come here to work for you for free until I pay it back. Do you think it's like? The family really has no money, but I want to prove myself, me,"

"Oh, you ignorant little boy, you are such a big tone. You are just a little boy, who writes novels? Just my bookstore, I am usually busy enough by myself and don't need a labourer at all. Don't mess with me here, go around, stay wherever you get cool!"

"The heroine was originally a noble princess, but she became the tool for the hero to revenge. Not only did she die, but she was also sent out to marry. She died on the way to marry. How hatred she should have in her heart, but when she opened her eyes again, she was reborn in the same time and space, and the younger ten-year-old farm girl. Because she was young, she had plenty of time to brew revenge. What I want is this feeling of falling from heaven to hell, climbing up from hell, and controlling it in turn. I believe that readers can also follow my story, enter the plot, and form a sense of substitution. When you just watched it, weren't you integrated into it?"

"Yes, I have this feeling and I can't wait to read it down. I really didn't expect that you would have such talent at a young age, your writing is good, and your articles are very popular. Although our bookstore is small, I will not treat you badly. You can offer a price."

"I don't want the price, I want to share the share, 50% and 50% of the money. It's very fair. How many books you sell and how much you earn, I'm half of it."

The shopkeeper frowned, "Five points? There is no such rule in the industry. If you want to divide the money, you can do it, you have three or seven!"

Ma Lu refused: "No, just 50% off. If you don't want it, I won't want it if it's too much. If it's less, I won't sell it. You've seen it. This is just the first book. If it's sold, there's a second and third book. If it's not sold well, I can take risks for you. But don't think about calculating me. I'm not easy to fool. Since it's a cooperation, it must be beneficial to both parties. It's difficult to write a novel. Writing one word by one and revising it hard can't be done by just one stroke. What I want is just what I deserve."

"I'm afraid we can't cooperate anymore. You can go to another place to check it out. Before leaving, I will pay the money for me."

Ma Lu saw the boss' intention of making things difficult for him, and couldn't help laughing: "Even if I sign now, I will fool you and readers in the later stage because of my unbalance. But if you put me in an equal position, the sales of the book are related to the good or bad I wrote. Who would let me make a bad ending? The shopkeeper is fair and reasonable, which can also reduce your risks and allow us to cooperate for a long time. Why are you stubborn about the immediate interests?"

Ma Lu's repeated persuasion made the shopkeeper feel a little moved, but he still felt a little unfair, and she thought about it again and again.

"Okay, I'll give in. This book is four or six points, I'm four, you six, do you think it's feasible?"

As the saying goes, a step back makes a lot of the sky, and others have made a move. If he persists, he will probably push the master out.

The shopkeeper almost didn't hesitate and agreed in one go: "Okay, I agree with four or six points. You are so happy, then I can't be stingy. All the pens, inkstones are enough. In addition, I will give you another hundred yuan as your hard work fee and daily nutrition fee. By the way, where do you live? I need to check your progress frequently, and you have to stay closer."

When the shopkeeper found out that she lived outside the city and was still on the side of the railway, he was stunned.

"So far, so noisy? Can you stand it? No, no, too far, so if you move here, I'll find a house, but you have to pay for the house yourself."

When Ma Lu thought of her mother, she immediately asked: "My mother is also aware of writing and writing. She is in her thirties. Can you trouble the shopkeeper to find a suitable job?"

The shopkeeper agreed readily, "What's the difficulty? As long as you write well, I will not treat you badly."

Because he talked too much and was tired, the shopkeeper thought he was tired of writing, so he asked his wife to cook a bowl of noodles for her.

After eating and drinking, I felt my mental strength gradually recovered. I thankfully took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone given by the shopkeeper.

When Riemann knew from her that she not only found a job, but also could move, she was shocked.

Ma Lu said a long story short, and Riemann was so excited that he couldn't speak: "So, did I pick up a baby?"

Ma Lu laughed, "Baby is not worth it. You are not worth it anyway. I said, I will repay you."

"Three days later, the shopkeeper found a carriage to help us pull things. Mom, you can also see what you want and what you don't want. We won't be poor all the time. When we have a job, we should throw away everything we shouldn't want!"

As a result, Riemann was reluctant to throw away anything. After all, he felt unsure of it. He always felt that one day they would return to this shed. The so-called "left a line in everything" and "Rimann was afraid of being poor" did not make Ma Lu feel embarrassed.

The house was rented into an alley behind the bookstore. There was a two-story wooden house courtyard with a very good looking look. The monthly rent was five yuan for paper money, and it would cost half a year at a time, which was thirty yuan. Because the bookstore owner was guaranteed, there was no deposit.

"This, this house is so good, right? We are only two of us, how can we live in two floors!"

"Big girl, don't look at two floors, it's actually only four rooms. The key is that it's small and has a yard to grow some vegetables. There are also some expensive methods. You and your son live here, which is safe."

Compared to Rieman's uneasiness, Ma Lu was stunned at first sight: "The shopkeeper has a good vision. He also planted bamboo in the backyard. It is a very elegant house. I like it very much. Thank you. I also ask you to give us a set of furniture."

"Oh, don't be polite to my family. They are not expensive things. They are all brought back from cheaper items. If you can't ask for a few dollars, just don't dislike them."

Riemann was filled with emotion, "Don't dislike it,"

"That's good. I've found a job for the big girl. What are you doing when you are a mother in a wealthy family?"

Riemann suddenly became energetic: "Why don't you do it? My son is promising, I definitely can't hold back. We are just black households, do they want us?"

Not only did Riemann, who had been in Chongqing for many years, do not have a household registration, but also Ma Lu, the shopkeeper pursed his lips and lowered his head to ponder for a moment.

"This requires favor, the road, I can help you find someone. As for how much it costs, you have to remember it in your account."

She likes Zhang Jie, ignore what should be ignored, and what should be calculated must be explained. There will be no trouble for cooperating with such a person.

"This is natural, but you also know how much I weigh. Why don't you put it on and I will write an IOU?"

"Haha, little brother, I like you, so I know what you think. Leave this to me. Please write your novel with peace of mind. Don't waste such elegant places I have found for you. One room upstairs is a study room and the other is a bedroom. I have already asked someone to clean up. As for your mother, you two will do it!"

There are two rooms upstairs and downstairs, and there is a utility room under the stairs downstairs, a thatched yard and a kitchenette built with sheds. Compared to the original place where they lived, it is a world of difference. This also confirms that the money invested by cultural people in the early stage is worth it. If there is no high return, Zhang Jie and Zhang Dashang will not be able to do this, right?

Rieman immediately followed Zhang Jie to the interview, and Ma Lu sorted out at home. About an hour later, Rieman came back with a smile.

"Did they agree with your expression?"

"No, although I am doing odd jobs in the kitchen, I have a job. I cleaned it up neatly and neatly. I don't want me. I'll give you fifteen dollars a month! Oh, I never dreamed that I would have this day, Lulu, this is all thanks to you. How great it would be to really leave our household registration!"

"It's definitely possible, my mother, just live in peace. Life will get better and better. How can you control your work, food and accommodation?"

"Yes, I will control food and accommodation. I don't come back normally. Unless it's a holiday, I didn't ask in detail. Don't worry, I will not embarrass you, nor will I show off, and do my job honestly."

Most wealthy families have the deepest kitchen water. Riemann said this and Ma Lu was surprised because she obviously knew something, otherwise how could she be so clear?

Because of this turbulent period, the circulation of currency was particularly complicated, including local issuances and Yuan Datou government issued. Although they can be used, the depreciation later was also very serious. Therefore, if the money is distributed to you, you still have to be exchanged for silver dollars to keep it if you deduct your daily expenses.

Rieman spent a day cleaning up his home before going to work, and he could come back to see his home during rest.

With work, Ma Lu's heart also stabilized. Neither the mother and the mother were busy dressing up themselves and their family, but went to work first, and it would not be too late to be extravagant after it stabilized.

The brush is very slow to write, and the accuracy is also necessary. It is too difficult, because these fonts still need to be printed later and will not directly present the shape of the brush. So he found a lot of data and bought chicken pen and pen ink. Then rice paper was useless, so he went to the bookstore to replace it with paper with slightly hardness and not easy to get ugly. As expected, the efficiency after the change was greatly improved.

It would be great if you write it and revise it once or N times, and you can spend 100,000 words a month. Later, Zhang Jie also took her manuscript paper to the corresponding unit to go through the procedures. The cards in this era are not strict and can basically pass the review. When she wrote the subsequent chapters, the first ten chapters may have been compiled into a book and published and sold. Because they are newcomers, they need to be vigorously promoted, that is, they are looking for celebrities to promote, just like endorsements, and give them for free to others. If they are good, they can be recorded in the newspaper to promote it in this way.

Her pen name is [Linglong]. At first, she was full of confidence and thought it would be a big hit. Unexpectedly, she did not achieve the expected results afterwards. Zhang Jie was a little discouraged, but Ma Lu was very calm.

"There is another way. You can take these books to the teahouse theater to find a storyteller or the theater director, and spend money to ask them to speak, perform, and recommend them. Although my article is more feminine, the characters are full of personalities and there are many charming male characters. You see, people in your industry say it is good after reading it. It doesn't make sense that readers are not optimistic about it. You have to promote it in place. Take it slowly and don't rush. As for the publicity costs, they can be deducted as costs in the later stage, and you won't be borne by yourself!"
