The boss was shocked.
Since he started this publication, no author has ever dared to come to ask for a price.
Originally, he thought that the ten taels of silver he offered was already too much.
Who would have thought that this blind servant would want four or six points? !
And he's six? !
He's six! !
The boss shook his head and said: "No, if you do this, I will suffer a loss."
Xue Mu didn't talk nonsense, but cupped his hands and said, "In that case, I won't bother the shopkeeper."
After saying that, he planned to leave.
The boss saw him leaving so decisively.
I suddenly hesitated in my heart.
Considering that he has been watching porn for so many years, this is not a heavy novel.
But this story is very novel, and all the elements of love, hate, and hatred are present.
His judgment was that this story would explode.
But if he wanted to make a profit of 60%, he was really reluctant to give it up.
When the boss saw that Xue Mu was so determined to leave, the lady must have given him a death order.
Without 60% profit, this story will never be sold.
He was worried that the duck in the mouth would be passed into the hands of other colleagues.
After a brief tangle, the boss quickly went out and called out to Xue Mu: "Brother, come on, come on, don't leave in a hurry."
But in fact, Xue Mu had no intention of leaving at all.
Because he knew the boss would definitely call him back.
It's like going shopping to bargain.
If the bargaining fails, he immediately turns around and leaves.
Go resolutely!
It will create disguised suspicion on the part of the shop owner.
Once you have doubts, there is an opportunity.
Now, the opportunity has come.
Xue Mu returned to publishing.
The boss still didn't seem to give up, and asked again: "Brother, can't you give in a little more? Each person takes one step back, 50-50?"
After hearing this, Xue Mu turned around and planned to leave.
"Hey, hey, little brother." The boss grabbed him and said, "Why did you run away as soon as you disagreed with me?"
Xue Mu replied: "My lady only asks for four or six points, and there is absolutely no room for negotiation."
"Okay, okay." The boss said immediately: "Then we have agreed that the profit generated by this story novel after deducting the cost will be divided between us 40-60 times, me 4-4, and your lady 6-6."
After a while, the boss drew up the note, took out the cinnabar, and signed it for Xue Mu.
He noticed that Xue Mu couldn't see, so he asked one more question: "By the way, aren't you afraid that I will scribble on this note?"
"No, boss, you are a smart man. You know that this story can attract a lot of money. Besides, my lady also has the other half of the story. You will not do this." Xue Mu said calmly.
The boss's thoughts were revealed to him one by one, and he looked a little embarrassed.
He could only finally introduce himself: "By the way, my name is Zhou Qingshan, what do you call your lady, or what is your name?"
"My name is Xue...Agui." Xue Mu said a name casually.
"Okay, then Agui, please remember to take this note back and let your lady read it. From tomorrow on, I will print this storybook novel. I will print twenty copies first. If they sell well, I will print more. What? Sample?"
"Well, everything will be arranged by shopkeeper Qingshan."
Xue Mu left the publishing company.
He doesn't have to worry about whether "The West Chamber" will be popular.
After all, any young woman in this story will be moved by the plot.
He even wondered whether a woman as unsmiling as Nangong Xue would secretly cry under the quilt after reading a novel like this.
After thinking about it, he realized that he was back in Jingzhao Mansion.
As soon as he entered the Tianlao, he heard Hu Daming and others discussing something.
When Hu Daming saw Xue Mu coming, he quickly stepped forward and asked, "Brother Mu, do you know that something big has happened?"
"What's the matter?" Xue Mu asked.
Hu Daming replied: "Your Majesty wants a general amnesty."
"amnesty?"
Xue Mu had some impressions of this word.
Just like when I watched the TV series before, the emperor who had just ascended the throne usually gave a general amnesty to the people in order to comply with the people's wishes.
But now that the emperor of Daqing is sitting firmly, why should he want an amnesty for no reason?
Hu Daming saw his doubts and explained: "I heard that one of your majesty's beloved concubines was seriously ill, so your majesty asked the old god to ask him to grant amnesty to the world in order to accumulate blessings..."
Xue Mu was suddenly speechless.
What kind of old god is this?
This should be the old magic stick, right?
Wait!
Something suddenly occurred to him.
If there is amnesty.
Then didn’t all his experience point tool prisoners run away? !
Just when Xue Mu was nervous, Nangong Xue came.
Seeing that everyone seemed to be discussing the matter, she explained: "Starting today, the prisoners on the third floor of cells A, B, and C will be granted amnesty."
"Master Nangong, those cells below D level..." Xue Mu asked at this time.
"Only release prisoners from cells A, B, and C. This is an order from above." After saying that, Nangong Xue left.
The issue of amnesty for prisoners is a matter of concern to the jailers.
is a good thing.
This means that there are no prisoners in the sky jail that he is guarding.
Isn’t it a cool time?
Xue Mu also breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as those in the D-level cell are not released by amnesty, even if Liu Xiaodao in the C-level cell is released, his experience points reward will not be too much.
Or... wait until Liu Xiaodao goes out and then catch him back?
Xue Mu just thought of a joke idea.
Not long after, he arrived at the Class C cell.
At this time, Liu Xiaodao was already waiting.
After he saw Xue Mu, he immediately asked: "Sir! Sir! Can we go out?"
Xue Mu nodded: "You can go out before dark today."
"Great, I never thought I could still go out." Liu Xiaodao said happily.
"What do you want to do after you get out?" Xue Mu asked.
Liu Xiaodao shook his head: "I don't know. I'm thinking of wandering around somewhere else first. Sir, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to see you in the future. Your kindness to me in prison will be something I will never forget."
Xue Mu thought for a while and then said: "Don't say that you will never forget it. If you really want to repay me, do something for me."
Liu Xiaodao immediately said: "My lord, if the knife can do it, we must do it."
"When you come out at night, wait for me at the back door of the prison." After Xue Mu finished speaking, he left.
On this day, Xue Mu was thinking about something while resting.
First of all, Xu Jie was sentenced to death in advance.
A full half a year in advance.
But a month later, His Majesty suddenly granted amnesty.
If he hadn't been sentenced to death in advance, Xu Jie might have been able to get out alive now.
Which is to say...someone wants him dead.
And that person knew a month ago that His Majesty was about to issue a general amnesty.
Xue Mu couldn't help but feel that the people behind this were like a big net.
But he can't control that right now.
Before I knew it, the night was dark.
Liu Xiaodao put on the clothes that Xue Mu had prepared in advance and came to the back door of Tianlao as promised.
While he was waiting, Xue Mu came to him.
Liu Xiaodao asked curiously: "Sir, what do you want me to help you with?"
"Come with me to a mansion and look for some things." Xue Mu explained.
When Liu Xiaodao heard this, he was a little surprised: "Sir, this mansion should belong to someone else, right?"
"What do you think?"
"Sir, I don't want to do this crime again!" Liu Xiaodao shook his head quickly.
At this time, Xue Mu took out a large ingot of silver and said, "This will be enough to keep you cool for a while. Don't worry, that house is not the house of a wealthy family, it belongs to an official who has been ransacked."
"Xu Jie?"
"how do you know?"
Liu Xiaodao chuckled: "Sir, although I am in prison, my ears are still very good and I can know a lot of things."
"Then let's go."
"okay!"
The two of them used the shadowless micro-step at the same time, and soon they arrived at the outer wall of the Xu Mansion.
I saw them scratching for a while and then jumped in.
"Sir, where are we going? What are we looking for?"
"Go to the backyard and look for a rockery."
"Okay, sir, come with me."
At the same time, the man in black not far away was quickly approaching the mansion...
