my infinite personality

Editor Yamanaka wanted to be that person, so he immediately signed a contract with Li Lin.

Li Lin took a closer look at the content of the contract. Compared with later generations, the author not only owns the personal rights of the work, but also owns property rights and intellectual property rights, which is simply too rich.

After all, the status of a literati at this time should not be underestimated, but even so, Li Lin carefully looked at the terms of the contract.

"I will ask the proofreading editor to proofread it first, and print a thousand copies first, to see how the sales are." Editor Yamanaka said. "According to the newspaper's regulations, for short stories, the remuneration is the highest according to the market price, which can be as high as two yuan per thousand characters. But you are a medium-length novel, so it will be less at first."

"However, if it sells well, follow up with the newspaper office and the publishing house, and the commission will be increased by [-]%."

Now the monthly income of ordinary people in Dongying is about three or four yen.

Li Lin nodded slowly, then signed his name on the contract and stamped it with his seal.

After the two parties signed the contract, Li Lin got up and left.

Taking advantage of the weekend to sell his manuscript, Li Lin was quite happy, and even planned to take Jiro to a small restaurant to eat and drink.

Walking on the bustling street, Li Lin and Jiro passed a medical clinic.

"It's Li Linjun." Suddenly, a slightly unfamiliar voice stopped Li Lin.

The girl wrapped in a white cloth is greeting Li Lin in the hospital. It is the girl Li Lin met on the train - Butterfly Ninja.

Li Lin froze for a moment, then finally remembered the other party's name.

"So it's Miss Butterfly." Li Lin responded friendly.

"Just ask me to endure." The girl ran towards Li Lin with a bang, and was quite happy to meet Li Lin.

But when she heard her sister yelling outside, Butterfly Chanahui couldn't help sticking her head out, but just happened to see Li Lin's handsome appearance, and couldn't help but blush.

In fact, Li Lin's appearance is by no means the most beautiful, but he has an aura that makes people feel like a spring breeze, making people willing to get along with him.

"It's Li Linjun, I didn't expect to see you again." Butterfly Kanae smiled and looked at Li Lin.

"Meeting is fate. It seems that our fate is not over yet." Li Lin said with a sigh.

It is really fate to meet again in such a big city.

Sister Butterfly welcomed Li Lin into the hospital, and then talked about her recent life.

After they arrived in Edo, they lived in the medical hall and were accepted as disciples by the owner of the medical hall, and they are studying hard.

They talked to each other about the things they encountered while studying, and the two had a good time talking.

Among them, Li Lin talked about the manuscript he signed, and the two sisters expressed that they must have a look at it.

"When it's published, I'll definitely read it." Butterfly Kanae said firmly.

"Then thank you for reading." Li Lin said.

Since he came out for dinner with Jiro, Li Lin invited two young girls along the way, and even raised it to a higher level.

Sitting in a small izakaya, Li Lin and Kanae had a good chat.

Different from the boyish Shinobi, Butterfly Kanae is a genuinely talented woman who is quite accomplished in guzheng, flower arrangement, and tea ceremony.

And Butterfly Chana Hui was also surprised by Li Lin's erudition, and admired Li Lin's gentleman style even more.

After sending the two sisters back to the hospital for dinner, Li Lin took Jiro back to the residence.

"Thank you so much for the hospitality this time, Yaoshi-kun." Butterfly Kanae thanked.

"Being able to meet the two young ladies again is something to be happy about. Since it is something to be happy about, then you should do something that makes you happy." Li Lin responded with a smile.

"This time, the host and guest will have a good time, won't they?"

Li Lin and Butterfly Kanae looked at each other and smiled, that smile like the warm spring sun seemed to render even the streets.

After saying goodbye to each other, I reluctantly bid farewell to Li Lin.

"You are really distressing." She reprimanded her sister fondly, and Butterfly Chanahui turned around and was about to go back to the hospital.

But Die Ren still went his own way, anyway, he already knew Li Linjun's address this time.

Even in the evening, the streets were bustling with people. Jiro walked ahead with a lamp, while Li Lin walked slowly behind.

For no reason, he suddenly felt homesick.

Even if it is a letter every month, this kind of homesickness makes it unstoppable and begins to spread.

"Lonely in a foreign land as a stranger, I miss my relatives during the festive season." Li Lin whispered.

Things about the manuscript went very well, in fact, it can be said to be very popular.

After the first edition, Li Lin's book gradually became popular, and those writing skills and crime techniques that surpassed the times made many readers unable to stop.

Later, the mailbox in front of Li Lin's door was even full of letters from readers.

In the township of Li Lin's hometown, the old servant of the pharmacist's family, that is, Jiro's father, had long been waiting in front of the road, waiting for the arrival of the postman.

Seeing the postman coming from a distance, the old servant hurriedly waved his hands.

"The old man is really on time." The postman stopped the bicycle, took out a package from the bicycle's hanging pocket, and handed it to the old servant.

"The family is waiting anxiously." The old servant took the heavy package with a happy smile on his face.

But not only received the package, the old servant also handed several letters to the postman again.

Li Lin will send letters home every other month, and sometimes he will bring some special products and the like.

Taking the package home, Yao Shihui slowly opened the package. In addition to the letter, there were also photos, books and a dictionary sent by Li Lin.

Looking at the figure on the photo, Yao Shihui's eyes showed nostalgia.

"These things were given to Zaomen's family by Li Lin. Give them to Zaomen's family when they come next time." Yao Shihui said to the old servant.

The old servant nodded hastily, and then the old man read Jiro's reply.

Jiro can barely read and write, but the old servant is illiterate, so he can only let Yao Shihui read the words in the letter.

Chapter 195 Chapter 190 Chapter [-] A Visit to Yoshihara

Under the light, Li Lin smiled slightly as he looked at the letter with extremely immature strokes.

This is Nezuko's reply letter. The appearance of the young girl trying to write the letter seems to appear in front of Li Lin's eyes at this moment, which makes Li Lin feel a little warm.

As for the letters from the old man, they are mostly babbling words, it is good to dress when the weather is cold, and to study hard, but you must also pay attention to your body... They are all short words from some parents, but they are very warm.

Looking at the sky covered by dark clouds outside the window, Li Lin turned off the desk lamp, and then slowly fell asleep.

The next day,

Li Lin continued to head towards the high school step by step. Because of the release of the novel, Li Lin was already considered a celebrity in the high school.

However, at the very beginning, Li Lin showed extremely high talent. Thanks to his reputation as a genius, everything became a matter of course.

"Li Linjun, this is your scholarship for this semester." The teacher called Li Lin out during the break, and then gave Li Lin the scholarship wrapped in an envelope.

"Thank you, teacher." Li Lin replied.

The money in the envelope was not small, enough for Li Lin's basic expenses for a semester, plus the family money and the money for writing books, Li Lin finally got rid of the embarrassing state.

Especially because there are not many entertainment methods now, it is conceivable that Li Lin's remuneration will increase in the future.

After getting rich, Li Lin invited a few close friends to play in the park.

"What's the point of the park? Have you ever been to Yoshihara? That's a good place." Jiutiao said after hearing Li Lin's words.

Most of the people in the medical school are people who are tortured by their studies, and the current medical school is not as precious as the later generations, and the military school or the law school are even more noble.

Between the nine words, a group of young people who were just in their teens were excited.

However, he didn't make it difficult for Li Lin, but he used the date of Li Lin's book to invite him to a banquet.

This kind of method is obviously a way for noble people to win people's hearts.

But everyone has been encouraged, so they had no choice but to go.

Afterwards, Jiutian repeatedly apologized to Li Lin and promised to bear all the expenses.

Li Lin didn't think too much, since he was going to Jiyuan, let's go.

Under the guidance of Jiu Tiao, a group of medical students came to the tea house in Yoshihara.

The so-called tea house is a place for drinking tea, relaxing and entertaining.The place where geisha live is Okiya, but customers cannot go directly to Okiya, they must go to the tea house to make an appointment.

Even before the curtain fell, Edo daimyos and cultural figures used to mingle here.

Although there is no big name now, occasionally some cultural celebrities are seen socializing and entertaining here.

And in Yoshiwara, first-class prostitutes must first learn singing, dancing and tea ceremony, and will not stay overnight with guests they meet for the first time.

Although many students admired Ai when they were young, they still had to be shameless after all, so they didn't rush to make a date directly, but their behavior was still unavoidable.

In the tea house, the first is the tea ceremony performance. It can be seen that the geisha performing the tea art are very skillful, the movements are graceful and slow, and the boiling water is slowly poured into the pottery teacup from the long mouth of the teapot. The fragrance of tea is the so-called full of color and taste.

After the tea ceremony performance, there was a song and dance performance. Three geisha opened the paper partition and bowed their waists to enter.

One of the three geisha holds a shamisen, one holds a shakuhachi, and the third holds a folding fan.

Fan dance!

Although the fan dance is called the fan dance, it is not to admire the fans, but to appreciate the graceful postures of the geisha during the dance, especially the faint and graceful style, which makes these young people intoxicated.

But when the students were immersed in the graceful dance of the geisha, what Li Lin saw was a girl who was only fifteen or sixteen years old.

The three geisha, the girls who danced were about the same age as the students, and the two older ones were only about 20 years old.

The four irons in life, they have carried guns together, passed through windows together, shared dirt together, and prostituted together.

But now, a group of people can be regarded as two big iron.

As the interest grew, the crowd became more and more unrestrained, but Jiu Tiao looked at Li Lin who was sitting in the first place, but he was still complacent and dignified, not as indulgent as other students.

And this is Jiujo alluding to the action of the geisha, letting him walk towards Li Lin.

"Sir, please drink."

The young female geisha looked at Li Lin with obvious shyness, and her beautiful eyes seemed to be slightly affectionate. Holding a cup in her plain hand, she handed the sake to Li Lin.

Li Lin took the wine glass, took a sip, and expressed his intention to decline.

Jiu Tiao looked at Li Lin who was unmoved, and suddenly felt anxious in his heart, and asked involuntarily.

"Mr. Yaoshi is dissatisfied with the performance?"

Before Li Lin replied, the body of the geisha who was pouring wine suddenly shook, as if a little frightened.

"It's not because of the geisha, it's just that I have some doubts." Li Lin said with a smile, he didn't want the geisha to be punished for himself.

Jiu Tiao thought he was hiding it well, but in fact it all fell into Li Lin's eyes.

"I don't know what relationship Kujo-kun has with this place?"

Hearing Li Lin's question, Jiu Tiao's complexion suddenly changed.

"What does Medicine Master mean by this?"

"Why hide it? Since entering Yoshihara, Mr. Kujo no longer behaves like a duck in school, but he is like a fish in water. And between greetings, Mr. Kujo knows everything about Yoshiwara like the back of his hand."

"Although the servants and geisha who come and go try to hide it, they are very familiar with Mr. Kujo. Why are the servants and geisha so afraid and obedient to Mr. Kujo?"

"All these things, one by one, made the pharmacist a little puzzled."

Hearing Li Lin pointing out the strangeness of Jiu Tiao's actions little by little, the sweat on Jiu Tiao's face had already fallen on the ground, and he couldn't hold the wine glass in his hand.

"Can I ask Yaoshi-kun to talk to me outside?" Kujo pleaded in a low voice.

"I believe Mr. Jiutiao must have his own reasons for doing this, and Mr. Jiutiao didn't hurt other people, right?" Li Lin replied with a smile, expressing that he was not interested in the secrets hidden by Jiutiao.

Jiu Tiao looked at Li Lin who seemed to have nothing to do, and could only suppress his emotions.But when he drank the wine in the glass again, Jiutiao only felt bitterness in his mouth.

Mr. Pharmacist, Guo Fei is also a human being!

After the performance, some students stayed in Yoshiwara, but Li Lin left alone with a lantern.

"Beautiful face is getting old, how much gray hair has grown? The spring breeze of peaches, plums and plums has passed, leaving mulberry and elm in the afterglow."

Looking back at Yoshihara, which was prosperous because of the night, Li Lin chanted the poems of the ancient country, and only lamented how many beauties it has.
