Divine Book Era

Chapter 10

ps: The current collection of this book is 233, and every 200 collections will be added, and more will be added.

In Wei Xueshi's tone, there was dissatisfaction with the way of immortality and strong opposition to the cultivation of immortality.

Liu Xiu was silent, not knowing what to say, the immortal way was too far away from him, it was so far away that he couldn't touch it, so naturally he didn't feel deeply.

Wei Xueshi said: "You are credited for contributing cement, I don't know what reward you want!"

"This year's corvee is heavy, and the construction of the Huaihe River will require a large number of males from our village. I hope that with the reward of cement, our village's corvee will be exempted this year!" Liu Xiu said.

"Why this!" Wei Xueshi said: "This request is too simple, you can make it higher!"

"Teacher, there's no need, this is enough!" Liu Xiu said calmly, "I like to get some things by myself!"

"Forget it!" Wei Xueshi nodded.

After chatting for a while, Liu Xiu turned and left.

…………

After bidding farewell to Bachelor Wei, Liu Xiu headed towards the bookstore to sell books.

In the county town, most of the bookstores are in the front and the back. The front is mainly for displaying various books, and the back is a simple printing workshop.

Bookstores can sell books, but they mainly rent books.Many poor scholars couldn't afford to sell books, so they mostly rented them for a period of time, copied them, and returned them after the copies were completed.

There is a sign at the door: Rent a book for ten days, the price is five cents, and each additional day will increase by one cent.No smearing or damage is allowed, and if found, full compensation will be made.

There were quite a few people entering and leaving the bookstore, from scholars in long gowns to Bai Ding in short jackets, and even maidservants of wealthy families who were obviously running errands.Constantly flipping through, there are all kinds of books on the bookshelf. On the bookshelf, there are contemporary literature that scholars need to study scientifically, Confucianism books, military books, farm books, some martial arts skills, and some secret books on cultivating immortals.

However, whether it is martial arts skills or secret books of cultivating immortals, it is just a taste, extremely rough, and it is almost impossible to rely on the above books to become a warrior or a cultivator of immortals.

Also some sheet music, some recipes and more.

Among them, novels, historical records, unofficial histories and the like are numerous and have a wide market, which are very interesting.

Liu Xiu looked through it carefully a few times. The novels mainly described novels about gifted scholars and beauties, as well as some pornographic novels.

It's a pity that most of the novels about wit and beauty are the same. The wit and the beauty fall in love, are provoked by the villain, and finally the lovers get married.Many of them are contradictory, unreasonable and illogical.Few can surpass "The West Chamber".It can be regarded as an ancient Xiaobaiwen!

The writing is rubbish, but the market conditions are very good.

I read some pornographic novels again, Fengyue pen and ink, its filth and filth, butcher's pen and ink, and the sons of bad guys, there are too many to count. "Jin Ping Mei".

Lonely and boring, reading novels about gifted scholars and beautiful ladies can be regarded as comforting the empty mood.Many talented people may not be able to meet beautiful women. Reading novels at least satisfies their fantasy;As for the plot, as long as the loopholes are not too large, it is still acceptable.

Reading pornographic books by the fireplace on a snowy night is considered a great happiness in life.

Regardless of whether it is a man or a woman, when they grow up, they will have physical desires, and many times, the physical desires cannot be satisfied, so they have to read pornographic books to satisfy them physically.

These two categories have the most market and the best market.

Other kinds, the market is not very good!
Liu Xiu looked at the market conditions in the bookstore, and secretly regretted in her heart. If she had known this, she would not have insisted on practicing morals.

I think back then, when Hitler was living in hardship, he could still sell nude paintings to make ends meet, but why didn’t he write novels about gifted scholars and beautiful women, pornographic novels to make ends meet,

Writing "Sword Demon" is too lofty, too unpopular, and too ancient and arrogant.

Liu Xiu sighed slightly in her heart.

With the manuscript in her arms, Liu Xiu felt apprehensive, so she found the owner of the bookstore and recommended the novel.

The owner of the bookstore looked carefully, and said after a few minutes: "This novel is not pornographic, not violent, has no lingering wit and beauty, no passion for love between men and women, no characteristics, no advantages, it is not a cool novel, There is no market!"

With that said, the bookstore owner pushed out the manuscript.

Rejected.

Liu Xiu was a little dejected and left the bookstore.

The first time I wrote a manuscript, it seemed a bit tragic, but it turned out to be rejected.

Liu Xiu continued to search for bookstores and recommended manuscripts, but failed one by one. She submitted manuscripts to [-] bookstores in a row, but all of them rejected the manuscripts.Many bookstore owners didn't even bother to look at them a few more times, so they just pushed them out.

It is not easy to sell literature for a living.

Selling literature for a living, most of them have a fixed market and a fixed network of contacts.For a newcomer like Liu Xiu, there is almost no market for new books.

There are too many people who sell their literature for a living.

There are very few who have really been appreciated by the bookstore owner and recognized by the manuscript.

After walking for an entire afternoon, Liu Xiu all ended in failure, and her manuscripts all ended up being thrown on the street.

"Could it be that my first novel is going to end in failure!"

Liu Xiu couldn't help thinking.

In fact, there is another way, and that is to recommend it to Bachelor Wei.

As long as Wei Xueshi writes the postscript, or the preface, or recommends it to the bookstore, it must be a bestseller.

It's a pity that asking Xueshi Wei for help is equivalent to owing a favor, and the debt of favor is not easy to repay.

Thinking about it, Liu Xiu walked to the last bookstore, only to see that this bookstore was in a remote corner, but there were few customers at the door, and it looked like it was going to close down.

After entering the bookstore, I looked around and saw that the bookstore was empty, so I couldn't help shouting: "Is there anyone here?"

"who are you?"

At this time, a jumping female voice sounded.

Liu Xiu looked aside, only to see a plain-clothed woman appearing, about 16 years old, with a sense of escape all over her body, with the innocence of a girl, and no time.

"I would like to recommend manuscripts. My manuscripts are rare in the world. After finishing those novels about wits and beautiful ladies, and those pornographic novels, this book will not come out. Once it appears, all saints will cry out, and the world will be shocked. God!" A flash of panic flashed in Liu Xiu's heart.

This is the last family in the county. This family has failed, that is, it has failed completely, so it can't help but make a big publicity, using all the words of praise.

"Hundred saints sing together, who do you think you are? Only with the qualifications of a saint can all saints sing together! A book confers a god, who do you think you are, a child of luck, or a son of heaven, and you dare to say a book confers a god !” said the woman in plain clothes, “Little brat, don’t talk big!”

The woman in plain clothes is already 16 years old, and Liu Xiu is just 13 years old today, so she is indeed a kid.

"What a brat, I'm already 13 years old, and this year I'm going to be a scholar. After passing the exam, I'm going to marry a wife, have children, and sleep with a woman!" Liu Xiu said with a stiff neck.

If you don't lose your spirit, how can you lower your head in terms of momentum.
