Professor of Magic

Chapter 210 Lesson 91
(Correct a small mistake. In Lesson 88, the "Finnish City" mentioned by Sara should be "Talan City". I'm really sorry.)
Sha Luo was slightly taken aback, then laughed: "Of course I am willing, but Lin, my salary is not low?"

Seeing that Sha Luo agreed, Lin Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

If this proposal was brought up to Sha Luo a few days ago, of course he would not have any psychological burden.But today is a little different, because he just learned that Shaluo is a descendant of the great magister Fenor, and her identity is quite different from the last time they met.To tell the truth, it was a bit abrupt to ask her to help him hastily.

However, his invitation was not impulsive. It is not difficult to find someone with certain painting skills, but it is very difficult to find someone who can clearly express what he wants to express.

Because the person he is looking for needs to come to illustrate the basic theory of hybrid magic he wrote, and if he wants to clearly express the meaning through painting, it is best for this person to have a certain understanding of magic.

It is relatively difficult to find a person who understands magic and has the ability to paint.

Originally, Lin Yuan didn't have much expectations for this, and he had long planned to explain it verbally at that time.But now that he has met Sha Luo, of course he is unwilling to give up this rare opportunity.

What's more, it's really fun to be with Sara.

"Salary?" Lin Yuan chuckled. "Saro, you are also the one who publishes books with Boss Searle, don't you know that publishing books is very profitable? Just tell me how much salary you want, and I promise to satisfy you."

Lin Yuan's brash words made Sha Luo's eyes widen.

"Very profitable?" Sha Luo shook her head. "In order to allow more people to read this book, I asked Uncle Searle to sell it as cheaply as possible. Not only did I not make money from these books, but I also posted a lot of them." After a pause, I looked at it angrily Looking at Lin Yuan: "Lin, did you make a lot of money with "The Significance and Promotion of Sports Events"?"

Seeing Sha Luo's pure and curious eyes, Lin Yuan couldn't help blushing, touched his nose, and said awkwardly: "It's okay...not too much."

He is lying!

If Boss Searle were here, he would definitely accuse Lin Yuan so loudly.

Although compared with "Theory and Foundations of Mixed Magic", this "The Meaning and Promotion of Sports" does not make much money, but this is only in relative terms.In fact, he earned nearly [-] gold coins in less than a month, no matter what.

Sha Luo looked at Lin Yuan, a little hesitant.

She has read the book "The Significance and Promotion of Sports Events" and has been in contact with Lin Yuan many times, so she already has a certain understanding of Lin Yuan.At the same time, through today's contact with the students in Class [-], Grade [-], and some other people's reports, she has reason to believe that Lin Yuan is not a particularly greedy person.

In fact, Lin Yuan is somewhat similar to her in many ways. Both of them hope to teach others what they know through the convenient way of books, and Sara can also see that on this point, Lin Yuan has no selfish intentions.At the very least, every sport is clearly written in "The Significance and Promotion of Sports Events".If he really wants to make money from this, he can leave some of the most critical things.

But why does he still use this to make money, instead of trying to lower the price like himself, so that more people can afford it?

After thinking about it, Sha Luo still decided to raise this question. For some reason, she always had a lot of questions in front of Lin Yuan, and at the same time, she couldn't suppress them.

"Sara, your idea is good, but have you ever thought that the result might not be good?" Lin Yuan asked back. "I think you should know that "The Meaning and Promotion of Sports Events" has now been sold by Boss Seale to Renault and the Maginot Empire, and your book..."

"Only Wendnuo City and a few nearby cities sell it." Shalo gave him an annoyed look. "Lin, you write better than me. I admitted this last time. You don't need to bring it up again."

Lin Yuan couldn't help but smile, it seems that Sha Luo's competitive spirit is not so small.

Shaking his head, he continued: "That's not what I meant. Leaving aside the issue of the book itself, have you ever wondered why Boss Sear would promote my book to other countries but not yours? How about promoting the book as well?"

"Because my book is not selling as well as yours." Although Sha Luo was a little unconvinced, she could only admit this fact.

"No, that's not the main reason." Lin Yuan continued shaking his head. "As far as I know, your book sells well in Boss Searle's bookstore, and it can even rank in the top ten in many cases. And many books that sell worse than yours are also sold to other countries. , but yours doesn’t.”

"Why?" Sarah asked in surprise.

"Because of profit." Lin Yuan replied. "As you said just now, you asked Boss Searle to sell it as cheaply as possible. Because of your relationship with him and your status, he should sell it at cost price, and did not make money through this."

"Well, you're right." Shalo nodded. "Uncle Searle told me he never expected to make money from my books."

"That's right." Lin Yuan said. "Boss Searle is a businessman after all. What is the purpose of a businessman? It is to make money. And your books can't bring him benefits. Naturally, he can't put so much effort into promoting your books. Even if you sell these books all over the world If he goes to the mainland of Farinos, he can't earn a single gold coin, so why do you think he should do this?"

"But doing so will allow many ordinary people to learn..." Sara was only halfway through her words, and couldn't continue.

She is not stupid, but because of the influence of the environment she lived in since she was a child, she has never considered money, and it is difficult for her to consider issues from the perspective of a businessman.Now being reminded by Lin Yuan, she immediately reacted.

"Then read my book again. Unlike you, when I cooperated with Boss Searle, I clearly stated what kind of remuneration I would get, and I would not restrict him from benefiting from it. In this way, whether it is me, Boss Seale can benefit from it, and in order to earn more gold coins from this book, Boss Seale will of course spare no effort to sell it to more places and more people." Lin Yuan shrugged. "You see, he has already promoted this book to other countries without my reminding him. I believe that there are not a few people on the Farinos continent who have read this book."

"But...but the price is too high, so many people won't be able to afford it, right?" Sara said with some unwillingness to give up.

"Although this is true, but have you ever thought that although my book is priced high, but because more people see it, even if the proportion of people who buy it drops because of the high price, the total number of people who actually bought it But more, isn't it?"

Shaluo collected herself, and finally nodded in agreement.

I didn't think about these issues before, so I didn't think so, but now that Lin Yuan analyzed it, Sha Luo found that some of her thoughts were actually a little immature.

"Lin, why do you know these truths?" Shalo asked angrily. "No matter how you look at it, you don't look like a businessman."

Lin Yuan couldn't help laughing, this is his advantage over everyone on the Farinos continent.

As a person from the original world with advanced communications, his contact range is far beyond that of everyone on the mainland of Farinos.There are many things that you don't need to experience yourself to understand, it just depends on whether you are willing to accept it.

"Actually, to put it bluntly, this is the difference between active and passive." Lin Yuan suddenly remembered that he once said this to Mia.It was just to tell her the way of educating students at that time, but now it is to tell Sara about business issues. "If you want someone to do something for you, let him take the initiative to do it, which will undoubtedly have a much better effect than being passive. Boss Searle can make money by selling books, so he will take the initiative without you urging him. Do it. And if he can’t make money, he certainly won’t have much enthusiasm and initiative, and the effect will definitely be much worse.”

"I understand." Shalo nodded slightly.

Lin Yuan's words not only made her understand this problem, but also made her think of many other problems because of it.For example, she has been unable to figure out why Lin Yuan's books seem to be easier to accept, while hers seem to be worse.In the past, she thought it was just because of the language and illustrations, but now she finds that these are just superficial, and more importantly, this is Lin Yuan's attitude of considering issues from the perspective of readers expressed in the book.

Seeing Sha Luo bowing her head in thought, Lin Yuan also stopped talking.After knowing Sha Luo for so many days, he has a certain affection for this girl. Although Sha Luo often has immature ideas, at least she can persevere and realize her mistakes. The most important thing is Willing to learn.No matter how you look at it, such girls are relatively rare.

I really don't know, how did the family of the Great Magister Fenor educate such a girl?
Shaluo's home was beyond Lin Yuan's expectations. It didn't occupy a huge area like those big nobles, and the houses were luxurious. Although they were higher-grade than the houses of ordinary commoners, they were generally ordinary. The city of Windno is not very impressive.

"Okay, I'm home." Walking to the door of her own house, Shaluo stopped thinking and regained her smile. "It's too late today, so I won't invite you in. But I will definitely go at the academy festival tomorrow."

"Then I'll see you tomorrow." Lin Yuan waved his hand to Sha Luo with interest.

Although he thinks he has a good relationship with Sha Luo now, but he is not so cheeky when he ran to a girl's house at night.

What's more, it's really late now, and I have to get up early tomorrow. If I don't go back to rest right away, I will definitely suffer tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan made a quick step, rose into the air, and flew over Wendnuo City in an instant, and quickly rowed towards Feynor College.
