Late Ming sea owl

Chapter 84
It will be released tomorrow. I have a lot to say.Let me, Lao Zhu, be a talker for a moment, and I ask all book friends to bear with me, because from now on until the end of this book, I will not publish any more single chapters.I hope it's best not to post a chapter at all, because posting any more would mean I have to take a leave of absence.

Some book friends have asked me before if I have written other books before, and many people have left messages saying that Lao Zhu does not look like a newcomer.So let me first talk about my writing process, only related to online articles.

The first time I read an online article was probably more than ten years ago, "Returning to the Ming Dynasty to Be a Prince" by Master Yue Guan. However, I didn't know about the online serialization model until a few years later. Then I read the novels that Uncle Guan had published at that time. I read them all. There are about seven or eight books on martial arts, history, cities, and fantasy in total. I was immediately impressed by them.

The first time I started writing an online article was when I read "A Generation of Military Advisors", a book that followed the trend. Because this book was somewhat similar to my writing style at the time, I signed up 2015 words and hurriedly published the book. That was in the spring of [-].

As a result, I found that updating thousands of words a day was not as easy as I thought. I was working in a 996 office at the time, and the unit did not have Internet access and I could not bring a laptop with me, so I only posted 6 words a month.

At that time, it was far from the volume it is now. I have been recommending it for a month, but I was too embarrassed to write it, so I sang "What is the use of this iron rod?" and cut it forever.

Then I decided to save the manuscript and practice my hand speed, and wait until my hand speed improved before publishing the second book. As a result, I spent most of my spare time reading books, such as Hu Shizhi's card-playing story.

It started with Yueguan, Angel Oscar, Three Idiots of the Thief, Master of the Three Rings, and Little Monster, then to Lao Bainiu, Ke Shanmeng, and Proud Iron Heart, and then to the new series in July, Grenades Are Afraid of Water, and Seizing the Deer Hou, it is really I read a lot of historical online articles, and of course I also read some other categories.

After looking at it, I found that the book I was writing seemed a bit outdated and easy to 404. That book was about Uncle Guan's routine more than ten years ago, and everyone knows it.So I stopped writing again.

At this time, I was playing "Late Ming" for the third time, and I felt that it was a pity that the Jiangnan line was cut.I happened to be familiar with the history of overseas trade in the Ming Dynasty and the history of overseas Chinese, so I came up with the idea for this book.

Okay, now I can answer the question.Lao Zhu is a newcomer, but it is not his first time writing a novel, and he is not what some book friends praise me as a great master.

Next comes the acknowledgments.

The first person I want to thank is my wife. We have been in love for 20 years and can be considered childhood sweethearts.It has been almost ten years since I got married. Without her continuous support for my dream of writing for ten years, this book would not have been possible.

(By the way, the author is the author, and the protagonist is the protagonist. Lin Hai’s character has no similarities with myself. I doubt whether he will be as single-minded as me.)
Secondly, I would like to thank my editor, Qingzhou, for this book was about three rejections. In the end, it was Qingzhou who gave Lao Zhu a big thumbs up.At that time, Lao Zhu was already preparing to write another book. Although it would also research historical facts, the style was very different from this one.This is evident from the title of the book, which is called "Chongzhen: I'm So Willful". The previous plot has been conceived, and the pace is much faster than this one.

Not only did Qing Zhou write the manuscript for me, but he also guided Lao Zhu, a newbie, to revise the beginning. Otherwise, the performance of this book would have been even more bleak - the original beginning had a prologue, and the protagonist should be 1500 words long. Then he appeared.

Next, I would like to thank four authors. First, Ke Shanmengda. Without "Late Ming", there would be no "Late Ming Haixiao".Then there was the director of Seizing the Deer Hou, who gave Lao Zhu a lot of help before conceiving and writing this book.Then there are the chapters of Big Iron Heart and Big Tank. I got to know Big Bones after I published the book. I have known Big Tank for many years. Thank you.

Finally, the most important thing is to thank the readers who rewarded, voted, read, and commented on the new book issue. It is you who gave Lao Zhu Mo great confidence and made me determined to finish this book no matter what.Regardless of the results, at least it will greatly improve the individual.

Although it has only been recommended in two rounds, this book's recommendation votes, monthly votes, and number of rewards are all very prominent among books in the same period.There are new books by newcomers. Recently, there have been nearly 200 recommendation votes and more than 20 monthly votes every day. People have rewarded them almost every day. This should be quite prominent among the books of the same period.Judging from various data, this should be a book with outstanding advantages and disadvantages. It may be understood that Lao Zhu is a rough jade that can still be polished, rather than a stubborn stone destined to mediocrity.

After all, this is his first book in the true sense. Lao Zhu is not afraid of shortcomings, but is afraid of lack of advantages.Just like a young man is not afraid of not being mature enough, he is afraid of being stable.

I would like to express my special thanks to the book friends who gave rewards and voted for the new book issue. It is you who gave Lao Zhu the determination and motivation to move forward.

Then, it’s time to talk about the updates after launch.

Several book friends told Lao Zhu that updating is the way to go and it will cost tens of thousands per day after it is put on the shelves.Of course Lao Zhu understands the truth, but Lao Zhu is running around. Tens of thousands of days can't make a living, so some other things may be okay for the time being.

Based on Lao Zhu's current situation, 5000 updates per day is the limit.Therefore, after being put on the shelves, we can only sell 2 a day for 5000 days, and then it will be around 1 a day.It may be one big chapter or two small chapters, which will be released regularly at 2 noon.

Someone may ask, what about the 20 you saved when you started the book?I’m ashamed to say that there are only over 7 left. First, 6 words have been updated. Second, I have deleted tens of thousands of words, removed some unnecessary foreshadowing, and postponed the appearance of some characters.After this deletion, many parts of the text will need to be revised.

Of course, the most important reason is that the performance of this book in the new book period is a bit ups and downs. Lao Zhu spends too much time every day reading reviews, looking at data, and chatting in the author group.There must be many book friends who find that Lao Zhu will reply instantly when they post a paragraph. That's because I open the Writer's Assistant from time to time to look at the collection.

In view of this, after the Easter egg stamps are distributed tomorrow, Lao Zhu will uninstall the Writer Assistant APP, allowing me to return to the state of clear mind and Zen like water when I was typing on a single machine.

Comments will still be read regularly on the computer to avoid poisonous points or rhythm problems without realizing it. This is the most common mistake for new authors.I won’t reply to so many comments anymore, but I will reply occasionally. After all, no one understands the loneliness of single-machine coding better than me (really, 8 years of single-machine).

Therefore, I only have 2 days left, so let me leave [-] to [-] words for emergencies in case something gets stuck or something happens.

Finally, let me say the important thing three times: please make your first order!Please make your first order!Please make your first order!

It is said that the 24-hour first order data is very important. Friends who are planning to or are currently buying books are asked to subscribe in advance.

Chapter 84 was originally a large chapter of more than 5000 words, but I split it into two chapters in order to get the first order.Tomorrow's Chapter 1 is more than 2200 words, so it should only cost a few cents. Thank you all.
