"Editor-in-Chief Nagano, there is no need to talk to outsiders. I am also a member of the newspaper. Now the newspaper is in a period of expansion. If the newspaper has any difficulties in meeting its expenses, there is no need to force it..."
Bai Gui thought for a while and said.
Now is a good time for the Demin Progressive Newspaper to expand. It seems to be making money, but after paying for writing materials, salaries, etc., there is not much left. If we increase the manuscript fee... it will not be good if we miss the opportunity period.
Already.
Editor-in-chief Nagano took a sip of tea, waved his hand and said: "The newspaper still has more than 7,000 yen on its books. I have also discussed this matter with the president, and I will pay you installments to increase your writing materials.
The time can be staggered.”
"After discussing with the president, we decided to give you an increase of four days per thousand words!"
He put down the tea cup and smiled.
"Four days of yen for a thousand words?"
Bai Gui was surprised. Although the price was not as good as the polishing materials of well-known short story writers, he could be said to be the only one in the field of novels. At this time, few people in Japan could compare with him in this regard.
Pass.
"Yes, the newspaper is also planning to use this name as a stunt..."
“It’s not just about increasing your royalties!”
Editor-in-Chief Nagano said.
The development of the newspaper has now encountered a period of opportunity, but Da Qin Novels alone cannot make it a big newspaper. It must be supported by other fresh blood.
Therefore, using the gimmick of "Japanese novel writers polish their writing materials" will not only make the newspaper famous, but also encourage many writers to actively submit articles to the newspaper.
And this... only doubled the royalties. Although the expenses have increased a lot, the prospect of making this important decision is still promising.
Besides, it’s time to raise prices.
Just be bold!
Be more determined!
“Extremely happy!”
After hearing what editor Nagano said about the plan, Bai Gui also agreed.
He also gets a certain amount of dividends from the newspaper. It would also be good if there were new writers coming in, which would relieve him of part of the pressure of publishing articles. Besides, if there is this gimmick, his status will definitely be significantly improved.
As for why other newspapers didn’t do this but chose him?
This is because the reputation of the Great Qin Empire is strong enough to make people feel that it is worth the money. Otherwise, if you praise a newcomer casually, it will ruin the situation and make everyone laugh...
…
After bidding farewell to editor-in-chief Nagano.
Bai Gui also rushed to Dongda without stopping. Dongda is also in Wenjing District and is not far from the newspaper office. It is also a benefit of this era that some places are clustered together.
Tokyo University, Hongo Campus.
Soon after, he entered the library with Professor Shiraishi's library card.
He walked to the archeology area, found a random place, and sat down.
After reading the book for most of the day.
Suddenly I felt something in my heart.
"Are there enough Taoist points?"
Baigui surprise.
He immediately meditated, and the Kunlun Mirror gradually appeared in his mind. The golden mirror had lines of simplified Chinese characters written on it.
"Name: Bai Gui."
"Tao Kung Talent: Hundreds of talents, strong bones and muscles, and subtlety."
"Talent for work: Diligence can compensate for weakness, the more you work, the more you gain, review the past and learn new things, and make progress every day..."
"Tao Gong: 732 points."
"Achievements: 12223 points."
"Anchor time point: 2014."
"From the time Bailu Village decided to take the imperial examination to now, it is the easiest to obtain merit points. You only need to concentrate on doing one thing, but it is the most difficult to obtain Taoist points. Last year, I redeemed the shortlisted talents, and only now have I accumulated them.
More than seven hundred points."
Bai Gui sighed softly.
The human body has an upper limit, and no matter how much talent is exchanged for meritorious deeds, it cannot break through the upper limit. But Taoist talent can help him break through the upper limit of the human body.
For example, he has been exercising in the past few months, and his speed of improvement is much faster than ordinary people. He can also know where his upper limit is, so as to prevent him from exercising too much and causing physical damage.
"But the upper limit is there. If you want to break through the last step, the price you pay is far more difficult than the first hundred steps!"
"Now the first volume of The Great Qin Empire is selling well in five cities, and the second volume has also earned a lot of Dao Gong. This is the way of writing..."
"Seven hundred points is enough! It's enough for me to exchange for a physical talent."
Bai Gui looked at the Kunlun Mirror.
There was a faint voice in my heart, "Do you want to redeem the talent of 'Strength of Resisting the Cauldron'?"
He immediately nodded yes.
In an instant, he felt as if his muscles and bones had exceeded their upper limit. His strength was much easier than usual, and the muscles in his body were more coordinated, as if they were born this way.
Moreover, he secretly felt that Sakon's physical talent was similar to the "power of resisting the tripod" and "exerting all his strength", which refers to being able to explode with his full strength to the maximum extent, and the power of resisting the tripod can be further upgraded.
His physical talent and "the power of nine cows and two tigers".
It's just that the "Exerting All" talent requires 800 Taoist points, while the "Power of Nine Oxen and Two Tigers" is even higher, requiring 1,500 points.
"Throughout the ages, the most famous person who can carry a cauldron is none other than Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu."
"Historical Records of Xiang Yu record: '(Xiang Yu) ordered all the cavalry to dismount and walk, and held short soldiers to fight each other. He killed hundreds of Han soldiers alone.'"
"Besieged on all sides and ambushed on all sides, King Xiang is at the end of his rope, but he can still kill hundreds of people. This shows that such a talent must be extraordinary!"
Bai Gui immediately felt happy.
The difference between a human being and a dog is greater than the difference between a human being and a dog. Xiang Yu can resist the tripod, and his physical talent is definitely beyond the reach of ordinary people. Now that he has this talent, through training, I believe he can reach the level of a king.
He returned the book to its original position.
Get out of the library.
Go to the gymnasium of Tokyo University.
Walk in.
Tokyo University's gymnasium has complete facilities and can be said to be top-notch in Tokyo. So after reading, if he has free time, Bai Gui will come here to exercise.
Of course, when exercising, it is naturally impossible to practice Pi Gua Quan or something like that. Although most people can't understand it, Bai Gui still remembers Master Ma's teachings and doesn't spread them out without permission.
This is similar to how most martial arts masters like to wear mandarin jackets. When fighting, the hem of the clothes covers them, and the kicks cannot reach the knees, and the direction of the kick cannot be seen, making it difficult for people to guard against it.
Be on guard!
Be well prepared!
Bai Gui walked to a wooden target and stopped.
This is the sports equipment that some Japanese kendo clubs and judo clubs need to use during drills. However, he has joined all the kendo clubs and judo clubs, and no one dares to object to his use.
"What is this evil star doing here?"
"Training again?"
Some students from Dongda Kendo Club in the distance retreated to both sides and complained silently.
However, at this moment, Bai Gui moved. He kicked the ground violently, and the force went straight from the soles of his feet to his waist and abdomen. Then he twisted his waist slightly, and an extremely powerful force burst out from his waist and hips, which was transmitted to his arms in an instant.
It was like a stretched bow, and the fist was like an arrow shot out, bringing with it a series of afterimages, and with a bang, it hit the wooden target.
There was just a click, and the target made of hard elm broke instantly from the point where the fist landed.
The upper half of the projectile flew more than ten meters away.
"Si Guoyi!"
The students who were watching couldn't help but exclaimed.
A student hurriedly ran over to pick up the flying target, and saw that there was already a deeply sunken fist mark under the silk cotton cushion, as if it was a work deliberately carved by a master craftsman, and the lines were clearly visible.
