The world was in turmoil. With the support of Germany, the Austro-Hun Empire declared war on Serbia under the pretext of the Ruoyun incident. The First World War officially began.
This was undoubtedly an opportunity for the Jiang family, and it was also the opportunity that Jiang Chen had been waiting for countless years.
However, even if they were to start a war, it would still take some time.
Jiang Chen wasn't in a hurry.
Moreover, he had just caused chaos in the entire John Bull City. It would not be a good thing to rush over now. Although it was almost impossible for him to be exposed, he was still prepared to be careful.
He would wait until the war completely broke out.
His days continued to be leisurely.
However, Jiang Chen didn't expect his leisure to not last long.
At this moment, a young man came to his door.
"Please inform them that Zhong Fu is here to pay his respects to Mister!”
the young man said respectfully.
He had no choice. After reading those martial arts novels, he was full of admiration for Jiang Chen.
"Wait a moment!"
The guard was stunned for a moment, but he could clearly sense that the person who had come was extraordinary. He quickly went in to report.
At this time, in the courtyard, Jiang Chen was reading the report in his hand.
Now that the country was relatively peaceful, the second revolution had begun, but Old Yuan was still relatively strong. If it wasn't for the later stage, Old Yuan would have been fooled by everyone, and the second revolution would not have been successful.
After all, Old Yuan was rich and had people. The South really couldn't compare.
"Second Young Master, there's a Mister Zhong Fu outside the door who has come from Shanghai to seek an audience.”
the butler said respectfully.
"Zhongfu?"
Jiang Chen was stunned.
For a moment, he did not know who it was.
However, he was not a proud person.
"Invite him to the guest room!"
Jiang Chen pondered for a moment before he spoke.
"Yes, sir!"
The butler replied.
Soon, the young man was welcomed into the classroom.
When he saw the person, Jiang Chen's pupils constricted. He finally understood who the person was.
Zhong Fu, also known as Shi 'an, was from Huaining, Anhui Province. He was the advocate, initiator, and main standard-bearer of the New Culture Movement.
Jiang Chen never expected such a big shot to come to his side.
"Mr. Jin Gu, I've heard a lot about you!”
"I didn't expect Mister Jin Gu to be so young.”
When Mr. Zhong Fu looked at Jiang Chen, he was also stunned. Jiang Chen was younger than he thought. He looked like he was only around 20 years old. It was hard to imagine that he could write such a martial arts novel.
As for Jin Gu, it was Jiang Chen's pen name.
He took a word from Jin Yong's and Gu Long's names, so he naturally called them Jin Gu.
"Mr. Zhong Fu, I've really heard a lot about you.”
"Please sit!"
Jiang Chen's shock faded as he smiled.
Then, the servant came forward and poured tea.
"Please forgive me for coming uninvited, Mister Jin Gu.”
Mr. Zhong Fu said apologetically.
"How can that be? Mr. Zhongfu's arrival will definitely bring light to my humble house.”
Jiang Chen hurriedly waved his hand.
He wasn't joking. With the latter's future achievements, he felt that it was worthy of such a title.
"Mr. Jin Gu, I won't beat around the bush. I've returned from Japan this year and am preparing to start a magazine in Shanghai. I'm here to shamelessly ask for a manuscript.”
Zhong Fu said with a bitter smile.
"Are you asking for a manuscript?"
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment. He really didn't think of this one bit, this one bit, this one bit, this one bit, this one bit.
However, he quickly reacted.
Now, with the popularity of basic novels, Jiang Chen clearly knew his popularity in newspapers and magazines. It could be said that as long as he was pulled in, a newspaper or magazine could instantly become popular.
Mr. Zhong Fu obviously thought so too.
"Mr. Jin Gu, I know this is a little presumptuous, but I can give you ten yuan for a thousand words. What do you think?”
Mr. Zhong Fu's bitter smile grew wider.
He didn't know if his request was acceptable.
Although he had some confidence in the past, after all, in this era, a thousand words and one yuan were unimaginably high. No one had reached ten yuan for a thousand words.
However, when he entered the Jiangnan Prefecture and saw the huge scale of the Jiang family, Mr. Zhong Fu no longer had any confidence.
"Hahaha, Mr. Zhong Fu is too serious.”
"Forget about ten yuan for a thousand words.”
Jiang Chen shook his head. In Mr. Zhong Fu's disappointment, he suddenly spoke.
"Mr. Zhongfu, I recently traveled around Western Europe and wrote a book. However, it's not a martial arts book. I wonder if Mr. Zhongfu is interested.”
Jiang Chen smiled.
"Books?"
"Drifting away from Western Europe?"
Mr. Zhong Fu's disappointed expression froze.
Then, his heart could not help but move.
"I'm interested, of course I'm interested. Mr. Jin Gu, can you take a look?”
Mr. Zhong Fu said anxiously.
"Of course!"
"Fu, go and get the book in the second column of my book!”
As he spoke, he gestured for the butler outside the door to go get the books.
Very quickly.
A few minutes later, the Butler returned with a thick book in his hand.
"This is my humble self's clumsy work over the past few years. Sir, please take a look. If it passes your eyes, it will be a manuscript.”
Jiang Chen smiled.
As for this book, it was obviously not written by him. He had signed in and obtained it.
As for why he didn't continue to give it to Wuxia.
He wasn't short of money, and his reputation had reached its peak with Wuxia.
He wanted to do something for this nation. Wuxia alone was naturally not enough, so he took out this book.
He also believed that this book could definitely change something.
"Mister Jin Gu is too humble.”
"Sir's work must be a masterpiece.”
Mr. Zhong Fu quickly said and took it seriously with both hands.
As soon as he received it, he opened it impatiently.
However, the moment he opened it, his pupils could not help but contract violently.
