It was a pity that if he wanted the full content of Smiling Proud in Pugilistic World to appear directly, it would cost 200 yuan!
And now, all his wealth was only about 130 dollars.
Helpless, he could only spend 100 yuan to buy the entire content of the Smiling Proud in the World from the system and then copy it himself.
"Sigh."
Hong San sighed and continued copying Smiling Proud in the Pugilistic World.
The next morning at ten o'clock.
The listless Hong San stopped writing. At this moment, he had finally finished copying the first volume of the Smiling Proud Wanderer.
Looking at the room full of papers, Hong San rubbed his tired wrist.
At this moment, Qi Lin's voice rang out from downstairs.
"Third Brother! Someone is looking for you!"
Hong San stretched and said,"Let him come up!"”
After a while, Fan Lei appeared at the door of his room.
Looking at Fan Lei outside the window, Hong San said directly,""Come in."
As Fan Lei walked in, Hong San handed the draft paper on the table to him.
"Has everything been settled?"
"Yes, the procedures are all done. We just need to find a suitable place.”
Hong San nodded and pointed at the piece of paper in Fan Lei's hands.""Keep these manuscripts well and don't let others see them. First, publish the contents of the first volume and the first three chapters in the newspaper. Then, print them in large quantities and sell them all over Shanghai.”
Hearing Hong San's words, Fan Lei nodded.
"Boss Hong, I can do it, but the money for printing the newspaper..."
Hong San didn't say anything and threw him a bag containing more than 20 yuan. He said,""Take this money first. If it's not enough, come find me.”
Fan Lei smiled and took the money bag." Alright. Don't worry, Boss Hong. Leave this to me!"”
"By the way, Boss Hong, you haven't told me your pen name yet.”
Hong San was stunned.
Looking at Hong San's expression, Fan Lei thought that Hong San didn't even know what a pen name was. He hurriedly explained,""A pen name is a code name used by scholars when they write a book. Everyone has one.”
Hearing this, Hong San did not explain and said directly,""Third Young Master of the Hong family."
When Fan Lei heard this name, he curled his lips and turned to leave.
Looking at Fan Lei's back as he left, Hong San knew that this person was greedy for money and wasn't a good person. However, he didn't have anyone with him in this area.
For the time being, he could only do it.
When the business slowly improved, he could change to a trustworthy person.
As for now, the novel had just been published, so it definitely wouldn't have any particularly good effects. It still needed time to settle down.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry to find her.
At noon.
Hong San, who had just eaten lunch, lay on the bed and prepared to catch up on his sleep.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she lay down, she heard hurried footsteps on the stairs outside the door.
Immediately after, Qi Lin's voice sounded from outside the door.
"Third brother, third brother!"
"What is it?" Hong San replied helplessly.”
Outside the door, Qi Lin whispered excitedly,""Master Shi Shuangling from the eight-legged party in the British concession is here!”
"He said that he heard someone mention that you're going to start a newspaper and publishing company, so he came to give you a gift!”
Hong San was stunned.
He had never had any contact with Bagudang, so why did Shi Shuangling of Bagudang come looking for him?
Gifts?
"What did he give?"
" It's a shop in a very good location," Qi Lin said excitedly." It's worth 300 dollars!"”
When Hong San heard this, he thought about it carefully and understood.
If it was just an ordinary gift, it meant that the other party was just expressing goodwill.
But now, he had given him a shop and 300 dollars. This gift was not cheap.
At the same time, he was clear about Shi Shuangling's intentions.
After thinking for a while, Hong San said," Go and accept the gift. Tell him that I, Hong San, am sick and recuperating upstairs. It's not suitable for me to meet people. Help me thank Shi Shuangling."”
Qi Lin was confused.
He had come to give such a big gift. It was a whole 300 dollars and a shop.
But you didn't even see it?
However, since Hong San had said so, he had no reason to refute. He turned around and went downstairs.
At the entrance of the first floor.
Shi Shuangling stood at the door, waiting for Qi Lin to walk over.
Qi Lin smiled warmly at Shi Shuangling and said,""Master Shi, my third brother has been sick for the past two days and needs to recuperate. When he heard Master Shi coming over, he asked me to apologize to you and even asked me to thank you on his behalf.”
Shi Shuangling saw that Hong San actually didn't come downstairs to meet, and felt that Hong San's arrogance was really a little too big.
However, he did not come here today to meet Hong San.
Hong Sanming was still a disciple of Yongxin Company on the surface, while he was a member of the eight-legged gang.
Since Hong San accepted the gift, it meant that his trip was not in vain.
As for whether they would meet or not, it didn't make much sense.
At the thought of this, Shi Shuangling did not say anything more. He directly had someone carry the gift into the room and then said to Qi Lin,""Since Boss Hong is not feeling well, then we won't disturb you any further. We'll leave the gift here. I hope that when Boss Hong recovers, you can come to my eight-legged gang for a visit. Our Boss Shen has admired Boss Hong for a long time.”
" Yes, yes, yes," Qi Lin said politely." As you said, when my third brother recovers, I'll definitely ask him to pay his respects."”
Shi Shuangling nodded, waved his folding fan, and left with his men.
Watching Shi Shuangling and the others leave, Qi Lin touched the plate full of silver coins in front of him and revealed an excited expression.
At the same time, Hong San's mother, Beauty, also arrived.
She looked at the ocean in front of her and almost jumped up in excitement.
However, the 'main character' Hong San was snoring on the second floor.
Very quickly.
The news that the second-in-command of the Eight Strikes Gang, Shi Shuangling, had personally gone to the Hero Casino to give gifts, along with the news that Hong San had safely walked out of Yongxin Company yesterday, spread throughout the entire Shanghai Bund.
The originally unknown Hong San was now well-known by everyone.
As one of the overlords of Shanghai, Yongxin Company naturally had its own information channels.
Before the news of Shi Shuangling's gift spread, the three tycoons of Yongxin Company knew about it.
Lu Yucheng looked at his slightly anxious big brother and second brother in front of him and hurriedly said,""Big Brother, Second Brother, you saw it too. That Shen Qingshan must have taken a fancy to Hong San, so he let Shi Shuangling get in touch with him one step ahead of time.”
"Even Shen Qingshan can see the importance of Hong San, so why should we delay? Once that Hong San really stands together with that Shen Qingshan, then our face will be slapped in the face.”
