Chapter 23 23. Sample Book
This unique aroma is the secret of Shanju Beef's popularity overseas. It selects the best beef and adopts a unique marinating technique to blend the flavors of beef and spices together.

"This beef is really good."

Gu Cheng closed his eyes and savored it. Although the beef had already been swallowed into his stomach, the aroma still lingered between his lips and teeth, which made people feel endless aftertaste.

"Brother, you come too."

Gu Cheng reminded Yu Qi who was still indulging in the aroma of wine, and motioned him to try this beef too.

"Well~ that's the taste, it really deserves its reputation, but the price is a bit expensive."

Yu Qi also swallowed the beef, sighing sincerely.

"Go first."

Yu Qi held his own wine bowl with both hands, while Gu Cheng could only hold the bowl with one hand because he wanted to hold his daughter, so the wine in his bowl was half less than Yu Qi's, and he could hold it up with one hand.

"Come."

When the two bowls collided, Gu Cheng took a sip of the wine.

The unique image of bamboo, the wine is soft, like the gurgling water in the mountains, flowing from the throat into the stomach, bringing a burst of heat, accompanied by the smell of beef just now, this is really an intoxicating taste.

"Good wine."

Gu Cheng put down his bowl with some nostalgia. The taste is really addictive. He is not addicted to alcohol on weekdays. If the alcohol he drinks every day in the future is this kind of wine, Gu Cheng feels that even alcoholism is acceptable.

Suddenly, I regretted what I promised just now, let Yu Qi wrap up the rest of the wine, but the daughter who was squeaking in her arms reminded him that he should not drink too much.

"Okay. Brother, I'll just say what I mean. I'll leave the rest to you."

Gu Cheng poured his own wine into Yu Qi's wine bowl, then put the bowl of wine aside, and enjoyed it after one sip. Although he was very reluctant, he still knew what was more important now.

"Then I'm welcome."

Yu Qi was taken aback for a moment, and then took it unceremoniously. If you drink more of such a good wine, you will earn money. Moreover, Gu Cheng has to take care of his daughter, so he will not persuade him to drink.

As for what Gu Cheng drank, then there is no problem. When I was in school, there were many times when my pockets were low. Everyone had a bottle of wine and passed it on to each other. Men didn't care about it.

"That's right. Do the business first. This is your sample booklet. Please see if there is anything unreasonable. I'll ask the people below to revise it."

Yu Qi untied the books tied behind him, took out a book and handed it to Gu Cheng. This is his mission today, and it must be discussed before he gets drunk.

"So fast."

Gu Cheng was surprised at the time when Yu Qi's task was completed. You must know that it took only two days for him to give the manuscript to Yu Qi. He didn't expect to confirm the cover and printing now.

"The quarterly summary will be concluded soon, and we are all going to focus on performance, so it will be better for us if your book can be released one day earlier, so that the statistics of this book can be included in this quarter. The book reviewer of the publishing house, Unanimously praised your book, so now this is our life-saving straw, can you not hurry up."

Yu Qi ate a cold dish and explained.

Gu Cheng carefully observed the cover, the background is cloudy blue, the pattern is a railroad track, there is an old-fashioned train on it, smoke is coming from the roof, the lights are on, and a man whose face is not clear is standing in front of the car, Wearing a western gentleman's hat and holding a civilized stick in his hand, the whole cover presents a weird atmosphere and a punk element.

On the top, in white calligraphy, is written the title of the book "Murder on the Orient Express", "Masterpiece by cutting-edge writer Gu Cheng." "The most exciting detective novel in the past 30 years."

This world also has the category of detective novels, but the time when this theme flourished was in the last century, because there were so few writers, detective novels have gradually declined over the years, and many detective novel fans can only read those famous myths of the last century. Do it, watch it over and over again.

When Gu Cheng chose detective novels as his first novel, he had thought about it. In this category, no one will come out to compete with him, and it can more restrain the enthusiasm of book fans.

The market has been longing for detective novels for a long time.

Yu Qi spoke in an exclamation tone.

"I never thought of it. You kid actually writes detective novels so well. If you can find out when you were in school, maybe you have become a master of this category now. You also know that the grand prize of detective novels in our country is about to be suspended. Yes, this category has a lot of fans, and many writers in other categories wanted to get a piece of the action, but because of insufficient writing skills, they all ended in disastrous failures."

Gu Cheng smiled irrefutably, he is a man standing on the shoulders of giants, with the huge earth literature behind him, think about the Sherlock Holmes series and the Edogawa Ranpo series in his previous life.There are also China's Bai Ye Xing and Dark Man, which of these works are immortal masterpieces. Gu Cheng feels that he is more like an ambassador for cultural communication, transporting the popular works of his previous life to this world, so that the familiar Earth culture Shine here.

Open the cover, there is a bust photo of Gu Cheng and his resume printed on it.

"Gu Cheng, a young writer, graduated from the Department of Literature of Huaguo University. After graduation, he worked as a reporter and worked as a reporter for XX Newspaper."

Because Gu Cheng's previous work was not in the writer's circle, his introduction was very short, only two lines, but Gu Cheng believes that his introduction will definitely get longer and longer as time goes by.

The foreword was written by Gu Cheng himself. He just briefly introduced the reason why he entered this industry. Because he is a novice, he didn't have any seniors to help write the preface, so he directly started the main body of the story.

The printed paper is still good, smooth and resilient. Gu Cheng flipped through it roughly, and there are illustrations every few pages. The illustrations are colorful paintings, and each picture is very consistent with the scenes described in his book. Gu Cheng was surprised.

After all, time is so tight, and Yu Qi Publishing House thoughtfully inserted the color painting, which can be seen that although it is in a hurry, it is still very attentive.

"How about it?"

Yu Qi looked at Gu Cheng and found the surprise he had made, and was very proud. He paid a lot of money for these illustrations and asked illustrators to make them urgently. Now it seems that the effect is very good.

"I was looking for the illustration. I have cooperated with you before, and this time it was completed in a hurry. I will introduce it to you later. This time, it is because the time is too short. Next time something like this happens, I still want you to describe it. The appearance and requirements of the illustrations, so that the book will sell better, by the way, the illustrator is still a beautiful woman."

Yu Qi blinked at Gu Cheng. Discussions between men are always inseparable from the topic of women.

 I drank too much yesterday, I'm sorry to stop for a day, I will pay attention to the arrangement of time in the future, I am very sorry
