Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 800 Ghostwriter Zhao Tiansheng
After leaving the academy in the south of the city, Liu Ya thought about today's arrangements, and then went directly to the book printing workshop in Nanling.The weather was hot, and when Nanling came out of the workshop, his sweat mixed with the printing ink, and his face and neck were covered with black spots.

But the smile on Nanling's face was extraordinarily bright, and when he saw Liu Ya, he said enthusiastically and sincerely: "You're here, little boss? Thanks to you, I've been really busy these days."

Liu Ya laughed as soon as she heard it, and asked: "It's such a hot day and you are so busy, why are you still smiling so happily? Don't you say you want to spend a few days off?"

When Nanling heard this, he shook his head quickly and said, "I don't want to be idle, but I want to be more busy. To tell you the truth, my little boss, for your books, I took two more apprentices. One followed me to learn rigidity, and the other learned binding." , This is considered to be busy. Otherwise, my little apprentice and I are busy every day, even if we don’t sleep for a few nights, we can’t carve so much. There must be a person who is responsible for the binding, otherwise the pages will be lost. It’s messed up, and the order is not so neat, and we have to go back and fix it.”

After hearing this, Liu Ya turned her face on purpose, and emphasized half-jokingly: "You hired a new person, and you are still only an apprentice, so don't print all the bad words on it. I am very demanding of quality."

After hearing this, Nanling waved his hands quickly and said: "No, no, this new engraving apprentice just learned to carve lines at first. He carved all the vertical lines and border lines needed on a whole board, and the other one and I It would be good for a proficient apprentice to only focus on engraving, which can also save a lot of time."

Liu Ya nodded, and asked again: "Then how is the progress of my book? I want to reply to Feihongfang today. If they accept it, I have to send the book over."

Nan Ling nodded and said, "No problem. Eight hundred copies of the second volume have already been published, and all of them will be printed in one day's work. The ones that were added to the first volume will also be printed the day after tomorrow."

Liu Ya took out the manuscript that Jiang Zitao wrote last time. After she went back to proofread it, she divided it into volumes and gave them to Nanling, saying, "This is volume three and volume four. You should engrave the block first. Turn around I will tell you directly how much to print. It is estimated that it will be [-] copies as a base."

Nanling was overjoyed for a while after receiving it, it was a big deal.Then he said: "Little Boss, I think it is troublesome for you to run back and forth. Why don't you just contact me for the delivery time and tell me later, and I will send it to you directly after I print it here." Right. If there are few books, my apprentice and I will carry them in a few bundles. If there are a little more, I can borrow a small trolley to deliver them. Don’t worry, I won’t charge you extra money, you are my regular customer now, It is also the biggest customer, and I can still handle this matter well."

After hearing this, Liu Ya felt that this was quite correct, and it would be really convenient for her to have him help deliver it, so she nodded and agreed.

Now that the matter of the book was settled, Liu Ya didn't stay too long.It was decided to send a letter to Nanling later, and after paying him a sum of money, he hurried to Jiang Zitao's side.

Now that the book business is good, Liu Ya has to find someone to write a few more books.Even if it is a book that Feihongfang doesn't like, she still believes that she can find a market.

What's more, the signature on this first book is "written by Liu Ya" and "written by Jiang Zitao". Presumably after the large-scale publicity of Feihongfang this time, "the name of Liu Ya will not be unfamiliar among these students. Even if some books are no longer sold by Feihongfang, as long as they rely on such a name, other small bookstores will be willing to sell them for her. The sales are not as good as Feihongfang, and they will not too bad.

When he came to Jiang Zitao's house, his wife was playing with the baby at the door.This time his wife knew Liu Ya, so when she saw her coming, she got up politely to say hello, and called in: "Zi Tao, the boss is here."

Coming out with Jiang Zitao was a dark and thin man.He looks younger than Jiang Zitao, but his eyes are very energetic, not like a literati but like a practicing family.

Jiang Zitao bowed to Liu Ya, and introduced him very politely: "This is my former classmate, Zhao Tiansheng. I said I wanted to find someone who could write for Miss Liu, but he came unexpectedly. I told Miss Liu's request. I also told him, and brought some manuscripts for Ms. Liu to look at."

That Zhao Tiansheng didn't seem to be out of sight at all. He came over and smiled at Liu Ya, handed over another manuscript, and said: "Miss Liu has worked. My family runs a martial arts gym. But I don't care about those who dance with spears. I'm not interested in things, but I became interested when I heard that Zitao was writing a book for someone else. So I asked Miss Liu to take a look at what I wrote."

Liu Ya took it over, and didn't read the manuscript first, but said: "Since you know all my requirements, don't you have any requirements? Also, I'm looking for someone who can write a book. Write for me for a long time, and you must be down-to-earth. You can’t write today when you are in the mood, and don’t write tomorrow if you have nothing to worry about.”

Zhao Tiansheng nodded repeatedly and said: "I understand, I understand. I also asked Zitao how long it would take to write a book. He said that he had written tens of thousands of words, but he felt that he had just written the beginning. I just did a rough calculation. After a while, it is estimated that it may take one or two years to write a book. So I have made long-term plans.”

When Liu Ya heard this, she felt that Jiang Zitao was a person with a clear mind.Although I can't ask Jiang Zitao about the content of the book, but ask him about the expected number of words and time, and I have a rough preparation in my heart, and I probably won't give up casually.Only then did he open the manuscript in his hand to take a look.

Seeing this, Liu Ya couldn't help being secretly surprised.This Zhao Tiansheng's writing style is not bad!
Moreover, the content of his writing is also a novel. Although it is not as bizarre and tortuous as a modern novel, the description of the fighting in it is more detailed and exciting.This may also have something to do with the fact that his family opened a martial arts gym.

Liu Ya flipped through it for a while, and already had a rough idea in her mind.He asked Zhao Tiansheng, "Did you write the story in this manuscript?"

"Yes. I have a martial arts gym in my family, and I often meet some people from the Jianghu, or some people come to kick the gym. After seeing a lot, I kept thinking about the stories behind these people, so I wrote some of them. Although this is not the real arena, it is closer to the current arena. I think it is very interesting, so I will show it to Miss Liu."

Liu Ya nodded, and said: "Very good. If I ask you to continue writing according to this, but need to polish it, add some storylines and character interactions, can you write it?"
