Yu Zhou was stunned for a moment, then bowed to Shopkeeper Qian, "Hello, Shopkeeper Qian."

Then he turned to the brother and bowed as well, but said nothing. He had a rough guess about the brother's identity.

Sure enough, before shopkeeper Qian could speak, the man raised his chin and said, "Everyone, sit down."

Yu Zhou glanced at Shopkeeper Qian, waited for him to sit down, and then sat down opposite the brother.

The man poured a cup of tea for Shopkeeper Qian and Yu Zhou each, and then asked calmly: "Did you write these two storybooks?"

"Yes." Yu Zhou nodded.

"The story of the fox demon is quite readable, but the wording is a bit too straightforward." The brother said, "If you want to sell it, you must find someone to make slight modifications first."

"It's up to you." Yu Zhou was very clear about his level. He spent a lot of time just to avoid writing some words from traditional Chinese to simplified Chinese. There was really nothing he could do about the wording. After all, it was only a short time. It is not so easy to reverse it.

The brother nodded, looking quite satisfied, then paused, and then asked: "As for the other book... why do you want to write a story that happened to me?"

Yu Zhou thought for a moment and realized that he couldn't say that he was writing freely, so he gave another reasonable answer: "Because the person I like is a brother."

The person behind the desk was stunned and did not answer for a while. Even shopkeeper Qian glanced at Yu Zhou in surprise.

Yu Zhou felt a little uncomfortable when they saw him, so he picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. As a result, the tea liquid entered his throat, and the fragrant and mellow taste made him couldn't help but take another sip.

"Although this storybook is good, it probably won't sell well. What do you think?" Finally, it was the brother who spoke first, "I will accept the storybook first. For every copy sold, I will give you fifty cents. If I can't If you sell it, there will be no money.”

Isn’t this what it means to get money based on commission? Yu Zhou put down his teacup and asked, "Is this true for both books?"

The brother said: "That's the only one like this. In addition, we can buy the Fox Demon book for one tael of silver at our bookstore."

Yu Zhou could only earn about one tael of silver by copying books for a month, so he nodded and said, "Okay" without thinking.

"Since there is no problem, just follow the money manager to get the money."

When he left the room, Yu Zhou saw from the corner of his eye that the brother was looking down at the stack of papers on which he wrote his storybook.

After walking some distance, he tentatively asked shopkeeper Qian: "Who was that just now?"

"Our boss." Shopkeeper Qian didn't hide anything.

Yu Zhou thought that was indeed the case.

Later, when paying the money, shopkeeper Qian gave Yu Zhou a piece of silver and then counted out another 260 copper coins and handed them over, explaining: "One hundred and sixty of them are the coins you copied this time." The money and fifty coins are the deposit you put here before. If you sell the book here in the future, you won’t need to pay any more deposit.”

"What about fifty more coins?" Yu Zhou asked doubtfully.

Shopkeeper Qian smiled and said, "Our boss said he wants to buy a storybook. The fifty cents will be given to you for selling the storybook."
