Naruto's youthful blood

Chapter 168 Jiraiya's novel became popular
After half a month of Maiteying's careful guidance, Jiraiya's writing level has greatly improved.

Like a strict editor, Maiteying keeps asking Jiraiya to revise the manuscript until Maiteying is satisfied.

In the past two weeks, Zilai has also revised his manuscript more than a dozen times, his eyes were bloodshot and his eye circles were black. He hadn't had a good night's sleep for half a month.

But all of this is worth it. After changing the third episode of "Intimate Paradise" more than a dozen times, not only Mai Teying nodded, but even Zilai himself was very satisfied.

He couldn't even imagine that such a good novel was written by himself.

Jilai also took the finished novels to a bookstore for publication. The bookstore in this world is a publishing house, and only the boss prints it himself, and runs it with a small budget.

Jilai is already a frequent visitor to this bookstore, and the first and second episodes of "Kindness to Heaven" have been published in this bookstore before.

At the beginning, Zilai still paid for the printing at his own expense, but Zilai also asked the bookstore to help him sell books, and the books were sold, so the bookstore began to cooperate with Zilai, [-]% of the account, and the bookstore took [-]% of the profit , The author always takes seven percent of the profit.

In fact, Jilai didn't care about the money at all, he only cared that more people would read his novels.

Ji Laiya handed over the manuscript to the bookstore owner, and said expectantly: "I wrote it very well this time, boss, you should print more."

The bookstore owner held back and said with a glance: "Every time you say that, okay! This time you will add 50 copies for you, so let's print 150 copies! If you print too many copies, if you can't sell them, I will lose money."

"Only 150 copies, too little, how about adding 50 copies, 200 copies?"

The bookstore owner frowned and said, "200 copies...the risk is too great, if you can't sell more than 100 copies, you will lose money."

Ji Lai also said angrily: "If I can't sell more than 100 copies, I will buy the rest myself!"

After all, the writing is so good this time, and Jiraiya still has some confidence that he can sell more than 100 copies.

"Okay! This is what you said, don't cry when the time comes, I will print 200 copies for you, and it will be ready for sale in three days. Come and see for yourself when the time comes! Can you sell that much?"

Three days later, that is, the day when the third volume of Jiraiya's novel "Intimate Paradise" was released, Jiraiya seemed very nervous.

Obviously, he can't make any money by writing novels, it's just because of his interest.

This nervous look was even more exaggerated than on the battlefield.

This time, with the guidance of Mai Teying, Zilai also felt that his writing skills have improved a lot, so he is very much looking forward to more people watching the third episode of "Kissing Paradise".

Zilai said uneasy: "Teacher Maiteying, after your guidance, I feel that the third episode of "Intimate Paradise" written this time has made great progress. I don't know how the sales will be this time?"

"Go and have a look and you'll know!" Maite Ying suggested.

Mai Teying and Zilai also came to a bookstore that issued books, which printed and sold Jiraiya's "Intimate Heaven".

When he was about to go to the bookstore, Zilai also said to Mai Teying: "Usually, this bookstore only prints 100 copies of my "Intimate Heaven". This time I asked them to print 200 copies."

"You should have them print more than 500 copies."

"500 copies are too many. Last time I sold the second episode of "Massiveness in Paradise" for a few months and only sold more than 60 copies."

"Really? But with me guiding you this time, I don't think it should be a problem to sell 500 copies." Matt Ying is quite confident that he can sell that much.

In front of the bookstore I came to, there were only a dozen or so people who came to buy it. Zilai also just released the third episode of "Intimate Paradise".

"When the second episode was released last time, there were less than 10 people who came to buy it directly. Unexpectedly, there were twice as many this time." Zilai was also a little excited.

A few readers who bought books saw Zilaiye, knew that he was the author, and said to Zilaiye quickly: "Mr. Zilaiye, I will buy your book later, you should sign it for us."

"No problem! No problem!" Ji Lai also looked terrified.

Compared with the respect of those ninjas in Konoha, Zirai also prefers the admiration of book friends.

Soon bookstores began to sell the third volume of Jiraiya's novel "Kindness to Heaven".

Every book friend who bought the third volume of "Kindness to Heaven" gave the book to the author Jiraiya to sign.

Zi Lai also signed autographs for them one by one naturally.

Soon, those who bought books and got autographs left one by one.

Seeing that no one came to buy books, the boss came out and said to Zilaiye: "Zilaiye, you told me to print 50 more copies, and you will be responsible for not selling them."

"Understood! These books won't be sold after three days, so I'll buy them myself and give them away." Zilai replied with some embarrassment.

Mai Teying stepped forward and said confidently to the bookstore owner: "Boss, I believe that after reading Jiraiya's book, those people should share it with more people, and many people will definitely buy it by then. "

"Hmph! Who are you?" The bookstore owner snorted coldly, and then said: "These books won't be sold by then, and I'll be at a huge loss. Do you know that you're making sarcastic remarks?"

When did I make sarcastic remarks?Matt Ying was a little puzzled.

Ji Lai also said nervously: "Boss, please be more polite, this is my teacher, Maiteying."

The owner of the bookstore gave Matt Ying a hard look, "Teacher... this brat is much younger than you."

Zilai was not convinced, "Teacher Mai Teying has a very high level of writing. He is guiding me in writing, so my writing level has improved rapidly. I believe my book will sell well soon!"

Matt Ying suddenly pointed at Jiraiya's back and said, "Your book may already be a bestseller, Ziraiya!"

Mai Teying pointed to the other side of the street, there were more than a dozen people walking towards this side together, the leader was a book friend who had just bought the third episode of "Intimate Paradise", and this book friend was walking towards the crowd surrounding him. People show off the books they have bought.

Ji Laiya and the boss are overjoyed that book friends actually help to bring in new customers.

If so many people come to buy it every day, the 200 copies will be sold out in a few days.

"I want one!"

"I want two!"

"I want three copies!"

These people really think that the book written by Zilaiye this time is good, and some people bought not one but two or three.

These people who bought the book knew that the person standing next to the bookstore was the author of the book, so they immediately asked Ji Lai to sign it with great joy.

Ji Laiya had just started to sign autographs, and another group of people poured into the street.

"I want to buy the third episode of "Kind to Heaven", and also the first and second episodes."

There were more than 30 people who came here this time. These people had just arrived in front of the bookstore, and several people appeared on the street, and they also came here to buy books.

Under the guidance of Matt Ying, Jiraiya's book really became popular all at once.

More and more people came to this bookstore to buy books. After a while, all the 200 books in the bookstore were sold out, even the first and second episodes of "Intimate Paradise" from the previous Zilaiye were all sold out.

This is not enough, there are hundreds of people around the bookstore, asking to buy books.

Everyone compared Jiraiya's first episode, second episode and third episode, and found that Jiraiya's progress is really too great.

Zilai also found that his book was selling well, he was extremely excited, and said gratefully to Maiteying: "Thank you! Teacher Maiteying, this is all thanks to you."

Maiteying said lightly: "You're welcome! Just remember what you promised me."

Zilai also said seriously: "No problem! I will definitely bring Mr. Maiteying and you to Mount Miaomu."
