Rebirth of the Great Era 1993

Chapter 498, Penguin Publishing’s greatest recognition and respect

Zhang Xuan looked regretful: Hey, you are a bit unhuman.

I thought you would say: The Shanghai Stock Exchange is my territory, and we are so familiar with each other. As the host, I will treat you to this meal.

Hearing this, Wen Hui pouted slightly, and finally couldn't help but smile softly: It's all the same.

Sir, please pay here. The salesperson packed the two items and greeted him extremely politely.

Zhang Xuan nodded and followed the other person to the counter to pay.

After buying the earrings, he didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, he followed Wen Hui and looked at the bracelet.

When he saw a jade bracelet in the middle, Zhang Xuan was moved and felt that this one would look good on his mother's hand or Ai Qing's hand.

Rich and courageous, the jewels and beautiful ladies here couldn't sway him. Zhang Xuan immediately said to the salesperson:

Let me take a look at this one?

Just now he bought two pairs of earrings without blinking an eye. All the salespersons in this store, including the store manager, knew that this was an owner who was not short of money.

So people behaved more enthusiastically.

He has lived in the past for so long and often followed Shuang Ling and Mi Jian to visit jewelry stores. He still has certain opinions about jade bracelets.

As soon as he got this jade bracelet, Zhang Xuan fell in love with the water and color.

It's just a bit difficult because he doesn't know the wrist sizes of Comrade Ruan Xiuqin and Comrade Ai Qing.

I just remember that when the couple bought them in my previous life, they always bought the same size because the two mothers were about the same height and frame.

Without hesitation, he took out his cell phone and called Du Shuangling.

Shuangling, are you at home?

Zhang Xuan asked as soon as the phone call came through.

Du Shuangling replied softly: I'm at home. I walked outside with my grandpa before I came back.

Zhang Xuan asked: Is grandpa in good health?

Du Shuangling said: Fortunately, you don't have to worry.

Then she asked: Where are you, are you busy?

Zhang Xuan told her: I'm in a jewelry store and I just fell in love with a jade bracelet. I think it would look good on our two mothers' hands, but I don't know the size.

Hearing We two mothers, Du Shuangling's worry about her grandfather was swept away.

She glanced at Ai Qing, who had his ears perked up next to her, and asked, You want to buy a jade bracelet for my mother?

Ai Qing's ears stood up a little more.

Zhang Xuan said directly: Yes, tell me the size secretly.

Du Shuangling said with a full smile: Absolutely the same as me.

Zhang Xuan knew clearly. He had bought diamond bracelets for two actresses, so he naturally knew the size.

He immediately told them: Don't tell them yet, I'll give them a surprise.

Du Shuangling glanced at Ai Qing, who was leaving with a smile, and cooperated with a smile: Okay.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Xuan picked two jade bracelets. The elegant one is given to Ai Qing, and the elegant one is given to his own mother.

Zhang Xuan put away his mobile phone and asked the salesperson: Is there a discount if I buy two?

The salesperson politely said: Please wait a moment, I want to ask the store manager for instructions.

Zhang Xuan said: Okay.

I saw the salesperson going over to discuss with the store manager, and came back after a while: Sir, after discounting the two items, I will charge you a total of 60,000 yuan.

The discount was not bad. Zhang Xuan paid the bill directly without any nonsense.

With such a refreshing look, the eyes of several salesmen nearby unconsciously stopped on him for a long time.

Zhang Xuan walked over and asked Wen Hui: Have you picked it yet?

Okay. Wen Hui picked up one of the items and started to pay.

After walking out of the jewelry store, before anyone could say anything, they saw an Audi coming in front, and Wen Yu was driving.

The Audi stopped next to a few people. Wen Yu, who got out of the car, looked at Zhang Xuan immediately, smiled politely and took the initiative to say hello:

Hello, classmate Huihui.

Hello. For some reason, Zhang Xuan felt that this woman looked at him strangely.

Although the other party hides it well. But the old man had lived two lives and couldn't hide it from him.

After a brief exchange of greetings, Zhang Xuan said to Wenhui: I have something else to do, so I'll go first. See you at school.

Wen Hui knew what he meant and stopped asking about dinner: Okay, see you at school.

After watching Zhang Xuan leave, Wen Yu asked the three of them to get in the car: Go back, your aunt said she was hungry and is waiting for you to go back and have dinner.

After returning home, Wen Yu looked for an opportunity to ask her daughter: Did we meet you on the road just now?

The daughter didn't react for a moment and looked at her vaguely.

Wen Yu reminded: Male classmate Hui Hui.

The daughter was speechless: Mom, you, the man, should bite harder.

Wen Yu didn't take it seriously and asked: Answer me first.

The daughter told the truth: “I met her by chance on the road.

Wen Yu did not give up and continued to ask about today's affairs.

It was rare for my daughter to see her mother gossiping like this, so she was also curious. After explaining the whole story in detail, she asked:

Mom, why are you so concerned about me? Could it be that Wen Hui had an affair with that male classmate?

Wen Yu slapped her angrily and funny: What did you say? Why are you so ugly?

The daughter asked: Then why are you so abnormal? This is not like you.

Wen Yu said meaningfully: Mom is concerned because this classmate Hui Hui is unusual?

Unusual?

The daughter recalled: You are just good-looking, have a good temperament, oh, and you have a few dollars, but you don't see anything unusual about anything else?

Wen Yu laughed and teased: Ms. Lin, you have really high standards. If a man dressed as a woman is prettier than you, would you believe it?

Miss Lin rolled her eyes and couldn't find a point to refute, so she could only protest angrily: Mom, it's your fault for having bad taste. Finding an average-looking husband has brought down the looks of my brother and me. .”

Wen Yu ignored this nonsense and asked, Did I disturb you just now?

Miss Lin replied: Fortunately, I didn't bother you. Just now Wenhui was going to treat her classmates to dinner. If you hadn't come, we would have gone to dinner.

Hearing this, Wen Yu felt that she could not find any useful clues from her daughter, so she was too lazy to talk to her and went directly to the front hall.

Miss Lin tilted her head and thought for a long time before slowly figuring out the taste.

Today, my aunt and her family are all here. It stands to reason that Wenhui should come back for dinner, but if it wasn't for her own mother to disturb her, then she wouldn't have come back for dinner?

Um?

Uh huh huh?

Miss Lin's eyes widened, as if she had discovered something big: Wen Hui and this male classmate have an unusual relationship!

Otherwise, with this sister's naturally cold temperament, let alone taking others to buy jewelry, it would be impossible for her to eat.

After returning from Shanghai, Zhang Xuan called Tao Ge as soon as he entered the house.

What do you want from me, sister?

This was the first time the two spoke on the phone after that night.

At this time, Tao Ge's elegant voice and smooth words gave Zhang Xuan the illusion that he had returned to the scene when they first met.

Yes, a lot more serious.

Zhang Xuan said: I have written a new book and it is almost finished.

real?

Why did I lie to you?

Tao Ge guessed: Let me guess, science fiction?

Zhang Xuan said yes, and then briefly told the series of stories he wrote about A Song of Ice and Fire.

Tao Ge understood: Are you planning to release the first volume of Game of Thrones first?

Yes, the first volume will be released first, and then one volume will be released every six months. Zhang Xuan responded.

Tao Ge asked: When will it be finished?

Zhang Xuan said: Within half a month.

This is not his bragging. For more than half a month, in order to grab time, he pushed himself like a mad dog every day.

No day is less than 15,000 words.

Tao Ge felt his urgency, You seem to be in a hurry?

Zhang Xuan didn't tell the truth: I need money urgently.

Okay, I will contact Penguin Publishing now and I will call you later.

Um.

An hour later, the phone rang.

Zhang Xuan asked anxiously: How is it?

Tao Ge told him happily: When I heard that you have a new book, Penguin Press takes it very seriously. They will send a team back to China with my sister.

Zhang Xuan was surprised: A team, did I hear that right?

Tao Ge smiled and said: You heard right, we are a team.

This team is led by a chief editor, including operations, translators, photographers, and two assistants, for a total of 9 people.

9 people?

Zhang Xuan was dizzy, It's really a tiger. How dare you play such a big game without confirming the quality of my new book?

Tao Ge said very proudly on the phone: You have proven your extraordinary talent to the world. This is Penguin Publishing's greatest recognition and respect for you.
