Zongman, the beginning and Er Nai married

Unexpectedly, in addition to Kasumigaoka Shiyu's "Love Metronome", there is actually a "Magic Forbidden Book Catalog" like a dark horse.

"Tch, is it really as good as you say?" Kasumigaoka Shiyu cast a suspicious look at her. After all, is the novel that has not been published really as good as Machida Sonoko said?

"If Shijiang doesn't believe it, you will know when the time comes"

Machida Sonoko said with a look of certainty.

She believes that with her unique vision, this novel will definitely become popular!

But Sonoko Machida quickly thought of something, did the writer also send the manuscript to other libraries?

If she was preempted by other libraries, she would regret it to death.

Looking at the contact information attached to the mailbox, Machida Sonoko called without hesitation.

"Moshi Moxi, is this Mr. Katagiri?"

"Teacher? I'm not a teacher. But I'm Katagiri Natsumi"

Hearing the immature voice from the opposite side, Machida Sonoko's heart was instantly lit with hope - it seems that there is still a chance!

Thoughts were running fast in her mind, and after a moment of silence, Machida Sonoko was ready to organize her words.

"Excuse me, is it the "Catalogue of Forbidden Books of Magic" sent by Mr. Katagiri? I found you according to the above contact information."

Xia Chen on this side finally realized suddenly, it turned out to be like this.

I didn't expect that I was still talking about when my novel would be noticed, and I didn't expect the editor to call him directly to discuss with him in the next second.

It was also a hidden fate that made him free from the responsibility of the four girls in front of him.

"Then it should be me. I didn't expect you to contact me so soon. I thought it would take a few more days."

After all, according to the popularity of neon light novels, tens of thousands of light novels will be sent to Machida Yuanko's mailbox every day for her to review.

"Then when will Teacher Katagiri be free, let's find a time to talk face to face?"

"Weekend it"

"Then look forward to the arrival of Teacher Katagiri, and I will send the location to your phone later."

After Xia Chen hung up the phone, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that my career is finally on the right track, so I don't need to worry about any accidents.

But as soon as he looked up, he saw several people staring at him, with indescribable curiosity and suspicion in their eyes.

"Student Xia Chen still doesn't admit it, we all heard it just now, the voice of the girl opposite is obviously a big sister"

"Huh?" Xia Chen was confused.

These guys seem to have misunderstood something?And seeing their very determined eyes, Xia Chen didn't know how to explain it.

Especially Yotsuba in the lead—at this moment, she folded her arms and showed a confident look, looking like a detective.

"Why do you have such an illusion!"

Xia Chen mercilessly pinched Yotsuba's pretty face.

It seems that this guy dared to talk to himself like this because he passed the pass and gave her so much self-confidence, right?

Obviously it's just a mere four leaves!

If there were no other people present, Xia Chen would definitely put her across his lap and educate her slowly.

"Mmmmm, student Xia Chen, you're bullying!"

"Who told you to slander me first!"

(ps: Brothers, can you get a few more monthly passes!)

(Activity time: January 1st to February 21th)

Chapter 49: Meeting with Sonoko Machida

On weekends, Xia Chen got up early and went to the agreed place.

According to the address, Xia Chen soon came to the place agreed with Machida Yuanko: Angel Cafe.

As soon as I opened the door and walked in, I saw a blond girl who thought she was wearing a maid outfit, like a waiter in this store.

But different from other stores, this girl didn't seem to be very energetic, and Xia Chen felt that she could fall asleep anytime, anywhere with her breathing.

"Here you go!"

"what?"

Is this some kind of novel welcome?

Xia Chen made sure again that he did not come to the wrong address, but it was the first time he saw such a strange waiter.

"Is it Teacher Katagiri?"

Seemingly hearing the commotion here, Sonoko Machida, who was sitting by the window, immediately stood up and looked over.

It's just that she didn't expect Xia Chen to be so young.

"Is Machida the editor?"

"Ah, that's right! This way please."

When Xia Chen sat opposite Machida Yuanzi, she was convinced.

But is it too young?Looking at Katagiri Natsumi's slightly green face, Machida Sonoko couldn't believe it.

This guy seems to be even more talented than Kasumigaoka Shiwa!

"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Katagiri Natsumi, please take care of me."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Sonoko Machida"

After the ordinary self-introduction, the two began to exchange simple greetings.

Although they all started talking about Xia Chen's life, Machida Sonoko got a lot of useful information during the process.

For example: This guy is actually Xiazhiqiu Shiyu's junior!

It is really a wonderful fate, the two writers I signed are from the same place.

After putting away the redundant emotions, Sonoko Machida started to get into the theme.

"How many volumes does Katagiri-sensei plan to write "The Index of Magical Forbidden Books"?"

After all, with such a huge world view, the three volumes sent by Xia Chen are definitely not enough to complete.

The story inside is also very strong-if you didn't see it with your own eyes, Machida Sonoko would not believe that such an immature Katagiri Natsumi wrote it.

Not only the setting of superpowers but also the appearance of magic made Machida Sonoko, who has read countless light novels, feel refreshed.

"If it's finished, it should take more than 20 volumes, if there are no accidents."

Xia Chen reckoned that if he really wanted to finish writing the "Catalogue of Forbidden Books of Magic", it would probably take a long time.

After all, he had only finished the sixth volume until now.

According to the progress in my plan, after publication—one volume a month is no problem.

Not that it was written too slowly or anything.

If it is too fast, there will be less expectation.

"Is that so... Is Mr. Katagiri dissatisfied with this agreement? If not, we can sign the contract now."

Hearing that there was still such a long space, Machida Sonoko finally couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart, and immediately took out the prepared contract.

In order to avoid having too many nights and dreams, Xia Chen will suffer a lot if he repents.

Xia Chen took the contract from Machida Sonoko, and looked at it carefully - after all, his own interests are involved now, so it won't work if you don't take it seriously.

I still count on my own efforts to turn over.

What Xia Chen didn't expect was that as a novice writer, he would have a 15.00% royalty!

As if seeing Xia Chen's surprise, Machida Sonoko showed a triumphant smile: "This is just the royalty fee at the current stage. If Mr. Katagiri's novel can reach a certain stage later, it can be increased."

This has to be how optimistic you are.No, people are optimistic about the "Magic Forbidden Book Catalogue"!

Xia Chen took a deep breath, he didn't expect Machida Sonoko to show such sincerity, and he refused just this one.

If a book can sell for 500 yen, then my share is almost 75 yen!

Although it looks like a small amount, it adds up to a very large number!

Well, as expected, it is still comfortable to lie down and make money!

After calming down a bit, Xia Chen took a pen and signed his name.

In this way, the contract is formally established.

"I hope we can have a good cooperation, editor Machida"

"But Mr. Katagiri would have done me a favor if he didn't delay the manuscript. There is another piece of good news—this time, because the upper echelons also saw your novel very much, they decided to print [-] copies of the first edition!"

"Aren't the bosses of Undead River afraid that my novel will hit the street?"

Machida Sonoko smiled and said nothing, after all, the vision of a person who can be a shareholder is not so bad.

Moreover, Undead River Library also has the absolute background to undertake this gamble. After all, it has been too long since there is no masterpiece that can be sold, and Undead River is almost squeezed out of the market by the other three major libraries.

The competition in the market is too strong, and they now need something like the "Magic Forbidden Book Catalogue" to open up the situation for the library.

"Then look forward to our happy cooperation, editor Machida"

"Ms. Katagiri, please don't delay the manuscript, otherwise I will be very troubled."

"If you delay the draft, then it won't work. After all, I can still grind it out if it's one volume a month."

After the meeting ended, Xia Chen felt a lot more relaxed.

Originally, I thought that if the royalties were too low, I could bargain, but I didn't expect them to directly offer a price that I couldn't refuse.

And Machida Sonoko told him that "Magic Forbidden Book Catalogue" will be officially published next week.

The speed was so fast that Xia Chen was unexpected.

In other words, after the next week, he will become a millionaire!
