After seeing Xia Houming leave, Mu Wanqing sent Xie Yingli away, and soon left the inn and rushed to Chenyan Inn in Quyang.
Chenyan Inn
From the outside, it looks no different from an ordinary inn, and is even simpler than an ordinary inn. Once you step inside, it's a completely different world.
You can see the service counter less than five meters after entering the door. The sign on the counter says "crowded all year round". The waiter at the counter is less than one meter tall. He stands on a wooden stool and wears a silk scarf on his head. He sometimes talks.
When excited, fluffy ears will squeeze out of the silk scarf.
Most of the people who come here are abnormal, including gods, demons and monsters. The strange thing is that the Chenyan Inn has been open for hundreds of years, but I have never heard of anyone who dares to cause trouble here.
Mu Wanqing first knew this place because of an accident.
The novels she wrote were too novel and not in line with the trend. Ordinary bookstores did not dare to accept them. Even if they accepted them, they would only dare to put one or two scattered copies in the corner. Later, she asked around for any bookstores that did not taboo these and dared to print them.
Someone mentioned Chenyan Inn.
With the mentality of giving it a try, Mu Wanqing's works were appreciated by Gongsun Yun, the boss behind the inn, and he signed a contract with him to provide at least one new work to Chenyan Inn every year, and the inn would use the money from each printing sale.
Give her 40%.
Forty percent was too little. Mu Wanqing was still hesitant at first, but later agreed after Gongsun Yun persuaded her. The people at Chenyan Inn were indeed very trustworthy, and they hired people for publicity on a large scale. She admired the publicity method after seeing it.
They are more slippery than modern people.
Why are you asking storytellers to tell stories for free to the audience? It’s just that they stop at the exciting point every time. New content is only updated every three or four days. Some people who are impatient can’t wait and start spending money to buy.
.
Even if there are those who don't spend money to buy it and just want to wait for the storyteller to tell them, the tea money consumed by listening to the book for a long time has already made them buy countless copies.
After the books sold become popular, Chenyan Inn will arrange for its own people to perform and arrange the music. After the performance, they will also sell the same costumes of the actors as souvenirs. This series of operations has made Mu Wanqing suspect that this inn has something
Other time travelers help, otherwise this operation would be so familiar.
Mu Wanqing once had the honor to have face-to-face communication with Gongsun Yun, who was a graceful beauty. These plans were indeed made by her, but she was not a time traveler. She had just followed her uncle in the business district since she was a child, and she was very knowledgeable.
There are also many.
Moreover, before Gongsun Yun, there were many predecessors who had tried this business model, but it just didn’t last long. Others thought she was the first, but it was just because she slightly improved the plan to make the business more popular.
Just a long time.
At first, Mu Wanqing thought that the innkeeper Gongsun Yun was a fierce and sassy female hero, otherwise he would not be able to control such a large family business and so many people under his command. However, after chatting with her for a long time, he understood that although the landlady
He is gentle and gentle, but his mind is delicate and well-thought-out. No matter what situation occurs, he always looks calm and unhurried.
Mu Wanqing has never seen her yelling in anger or yelling at someone to deal with. She treats others with respect and respect. She will not look down on others because of their high status, and look down on others because of their low status.
Everyone who has entered or interacted with Chenyan Inn will praise its conscience.
"New booklet." Mu Wanqing took out the novel he had hidden in his chest and placed it on the counter.
The boy put his hands on the counter, stood on tiptoe, took the booklet, and read the inscription, "The Little Wife of the Rock King."
I saw the young man adjusting the glass mirror on his eyes and taking a closer look at Mu Wanqing. His eyes were shining with light. The white tail behind him was swinging from side to side, and his ears were squeezed out of the turban.
Perhaps because he was afraid of scaring Mu Wanqing, the boy was a little confused and struggled to cover his tail and ears, "Yes, I'm sorry...I just..."
"It's okay, I'm not afraid of friendly monsters." Mu Wanqing lay down in front of the counter and poked the little boy with his fingertips. He was indeed a human transformed from an animal. His skin was so soft that people couldn't help but move it.
"My name is Xiaobai. I like to read the stories you write. No, I didn't expect that I would be lucky enough to meet a real person this time." The young man felt that the counter was hindering his communication with his idol, so he jumped up on the counter with all his strength. Sit down in front of Mu Wanqing.
Mu Wanqing was frightened by Xiaobai's series of actions, and involuntarily took a step back, then calmed down and said, "Thank you for liking."
Xiaobai opened his palm, and a three- to four-centimeter-thick account book appeared in his hand. He opened it and looked at it, "I'm sorry, because you submitted the book overtime, a 10% overdue fee will be deducted from this month's income."
Gongsun Yun was merciful this time, and Mu Wanqing thought that all of his salary this month would be lost.
Chenyan Inn pays manuscript fees on a monthly basis, and will give Mu Wanqing an interest rate of 40% of the amount of money printed each month, and the account will be remitted at the end of the month.
According to regulations, if a writer fails to submit a manuscript on time, every day that exceeds the deadline will be deducted based on the month's income divided by the number of days, and doubled the next day. If the manuscript is delayed for a long time, all the earnings made in several years will be lost, and maybe even more money will be deducted. You have to owe them money.
Xiaobai closed his eyes, placed his index and middle fingers together on his temples without moving.
Mu Wanqing had seen this situation several times. This was the way Gongsun Yun communicated with the heads of various branches on a daily basis. It was the first time that she approached the people at Chenyan Inn to discuss selling books. They also contacted Gongsun Yun in this way.
On weekdays, even in the largest Chenyan Inn, you can't see Gongsun Yun himself.
Mu Wanqing and Gongsun Yun met after their first novel became a hit.
"The boss said that according to the agreement, 90% of your profit should be deducted as punishment, but considering that you were unable to submit the manuscript in time due to injury and coma, Chenyan Inn only deducted 10%."
"Of course, Chenyan Inn abides by the contract. In order to prevent more people from procrastinating like you in the future, we will provide a new contract. In the next year, you need to complete at least two works, otherwise your earnings in the next year will be deducted. All income as punishment." Xiao Bai waved his hand, and a contract appeared out of thin air. The content written in the contract was consistent with what Xiao Bai explained.
Even when she was injured and unconscious, she knew that Chenyan Inn was really mysterious.
Mu Wanqing did not hesitate and decisively pressed his fingerprint on the contract.
"The contract has been completed. The money has been transferred to your name. You can use the token in your hand to withdraw money from any bank." Xiaobai finished the programmed content according to the regulations, and returned to his cute appearance just now, like A star-chasing fan, staring intently at his idol and never getting tired of watching it.
"My dear wife, Emperor Yan, what else do you need? Xiaobai will provide the most comprehensive service within his capabilities."
