Chapter 472 Letter to Fifth Brother

"Comrade Xiaobai, write a letter to your fifth brother and welcome him to contribute to our "Jilu Daily". Since he is a special writer of "Youth New Daily", his writing skills must be good. We need such young people very much. When people are full of strength, the royalties will be based on the highest standards."

After Director Huang completed the exclusive interview with Bai Meixi, he sincerely invited Cheng Haiyi's fifth brother to become a special writer of Jilu Daily. If his article is good, Director Huang can also open a column for him.

This news is a great good thing for Bai Meixi. The sales of Jilu Daily are not low, and there is a column for serializing novels. If the fifth brother can become a serial author, the monthly income will be very considerable, which is much higher than the current monthly publication of one novel. The situation of earning more than ten yuan per article is much more stable.

"Thank you, Director Huang. I will send a telegram to Fifth Brother now and ask him to write a manuscript and send it to you immediately."

Bai Meixi thanked Director Huang profusely. She kept bowing to him, which made Director Huang very embarrassed. He only helped a little, which was incomparable to Bai Meixi's life-saving grace to the little fat man.

"Ask him to write as much as possible. If there are any shortcomings, I can give him some pointers. Young people are worth cultivating." Director Huang said for sure, even if Bai Meixi's fifth brother's manuscript does not meet the requirements for publication. , he will also help him polish and revise it, so that he can reach a publishable level.

Bai Meixi did not dare to delay. After leaving the hospital, she immediately went to the post office to send a telegram to her fifth brother, asking him to immediately send a most satisfactory article to Director Huang of "Jilu Daily". She must strike while the iron is hot and cannot miss this great opportunity. opportunity.

In order to describe the matter clearly, Bai Meixi wrote all the ins and outs of the matter in the telegram, and emphasized it three times, asking the fifth brother to submit the article as soon as possible, and absolutely not let the matter cool down.

"It costs a lot of money to write like this. Isn't it just to submit a manuscript? I'll correct it for you. A dozen words will be enough." The people at the post office thought that Bai Meixi didn't know how to write telegrams and wanted to help her correct it. , can save a lot of money.

Nowadays, telegrams are charged by the word. It would cost Bai Meixi at least half a month's salary to write like this.

"No need to change, just send it like this. I will pay as much as you want." Bai Meixi insisted. Her current state was to race against time. If she didn't explain the matter clearly, she might not be able to attract the attention of her fifth brother.

There are many people with literary background in this era, but not everyone can make money by writing. With Director Huang as an insider, Fifth Brother has one foot in the door of the magazine. The quality of the manuscripts is almost the same. Under such circumstances, he would naturally use Fifth Brother's manuscripts and even give him a clear path to let him know what types of manuscripts are easy to publish. Targeted submissions may have a higher chance of winning.

As long as he can catch Director Huang's line, the fifth brother will definitely make much more money than this dozen yuan.

The people at the post office couldn't persuade Bai Meixi and had to do it. They kept shaking their heads, feeling that Bai Meixi had wasted a lot of money. Such money was enough to buy a good dress, but she wasted it on a piece of paper.

After completing this matter, Bai Meixi felt much more at ease. She bought a copy of Jilu Daily and read the novel columns on it. These novels were far less exciting than those written by her fifth brother. As long as her fifth brother was willing to contribute, they would definitely be successful. Can come out on top.

Bai Meixi sent the Jilu Daily back to her fifth brother by regular mail so that he could use it as a reference. Even if he didn't hit the target this time, he would still have another chance.It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when she came out of the post office. Bai Meixi followed Director Huang's instructions and went to a medicinal company in the city. Although Jilu is a small city, donkey-hide gelatin is a particularly famous tonic. The medicine of donkey-hide gelatin The effect is very good, it comes from Dong'a, and its quality is unmatched by other places. It is very good for the disease of Bai Meixi's mother-in-law.

Now her mother-in-law's medicine costs almost 20 yuan a month. After taking it for two months, she has only seen a slight improvement and the effect is relatively average. If there are some supplements with significant effects, it may make her body recover quickly, which will not only save money. A large amount of money can also make the family stop worrying, which is a good thing to win in one fell swoop.

The medicinal materials company is very lively. It is more like a huge trading market. Almost all the donkey-hide gelatin in the country is produced here. No matter what time, the market is filled with pharmaceutical dealers purchasing medicinal materials from all over the country. They are dealing with different grades of donkey-hide gelatin. Ejiao keeps checking and trying to find the most cost-effective products.

"You must be Comrade Xiaobai. Director Huang has already said hello, saying that you saved his son and asked us to entertain you well."

A director named Wang took the initiative to say hello to Bai Meixi. He and Director Huang were classmates. He was frightened when he heard that the little fat boy almost drowned. Fortunately, the child was rescued. Otherwise, he would not know how to comfort himself. An old classmate.

"Look at these, they are all top-grade donkey-hide gelatin. The effect is very good. Even patients who are paralyzed in bed can be alive and kicking after eating it." Director Wang is very confident in the medicinal materials produced by his company. He gave Bai Mei detailed information Xi introduced the differences between various grades of donkey-hide gelatin and how to identify them.

At present, the quality of donkey-hide gelatin on the market is mixed. Many people use low-grade donkey-hide gelatin as top-grade donkey-hide gelatin, specifically to deceive retail customers like Bai Meixi. Customers like her do not understand the quality of donkey-hide gelatin at a glance, and they are outsiders. Even if there is any problem, there is no way to go back to Jilu City to settle the score with them.

Bai Meixi nodded and agreed with Director Wang's statement. In her eyes, these donkey-hide gelatins did look similar, and they all had a strong medicinal smell, which she couldn't tell with her naked eyes.

"Those people are just taking advantage of the loopholes, but you can rest assured about the products I have here, and Director Huang said that I will leave five kilograms of special grade for you. He will pay for it, so you can take it."

After speaking, Director Wang brought a big box to Bai Meixi, which contained five kilograms of top-quality donkey-hide gelatin. This was what Director Huang had warned before. He was afraid that Bai Meixi would be deceived when selling donkey-hide gelatin in the future, so he came here. After a round of careful teaching.

"Please help me thank Director Huang. I really can't ask for these things. Director Huang's lover has bought me a new set of clothes today. I have already thanked him. Besides, I don't need so much donkey-hide gelatin, two kilograms." enough."

Bai Meixi insisted on paying for the donkey-hide gelatin in Director Wang's hands. After several tug-of-wars, Director Wang had no choice but to compromise and sold the donkey-hide gelatin in his hand to Bai Meixi for 8 yuan.

Bai Meixi knows that there is a friendly price here. Top-grade donkey-hide gelatin is hard to come by. Normally, even if you have money, you can't buy it. What's more, the price given by Director Wang is the price of first-grade donkey-hide gelatin. The price difference may be necessary. Director Huang added.

Bai Meixi secretly noted Director Huang's kindness and prepared to return it to him if he had the opportunity in the future.
