Early the next morning, NingZe brought the first half of the manuscript to Bachong Hall.
The person on duty was a young girl. The editor in charge of reviewing the manuscript was a woman in her thirties who exuded a mature aura. She did not see the Eightfold Son of God.
Ning Ze felt a little regretful. Although he called the Eighth Layer Remnant a little fox, he still wanted to see what the real Eighth Layer Remnant looked like.
After all, she was one of the wives he loved dearly.
"Did you really write this?"
After Sakura Keiko finished reading the first half of " The Years When Little Fox and I Travelled the Continent," her eyes lit up and her emotions surged.
As a professional reader, she knew that this book would definitely be popular, and not just any ordinary one.
Both the storyline and the characters were very attractive, not to mention the cute little fox. It was simply a reader killer.
"Yes, this is only the first half of the first part."”
Sakura Keiko's expression became even more joyful as she asked,""There's actually a second one. Is it done? Can you show it to me?"
"Not yet. Creation takes time."
"That's true."
After her excitement, Sakura Keiko regained her composure as a review editor.
"Our Bachong Hall is the best and largest publishing house in the entire continent. The corresponding rules and regulations are also very sound. For creators like you, we generally have two ways to accept manuscripts.”
"The first is a one-time purchase. For example, we can buy out the ownership of your book for one million Mora, and you will have nothing to do with it anymore.”
"The second method is to split the profits. The amount of royalties you get is closely related to the number of books you sell. The more people buy it, the more money you earn. Of course, it was also possible that they would not be able to sell a single book and become a failed author.”
Without hesitation, Ning Ze chose the second option.
Although buying out the rights to the work in one go could earn a huge return in a short period of time, it would also lose the space and possibility of future growth.
He was still very optimistic about this book," The Years When Little Fox and I Travelled the Continent." It definitely had the potential to become a bestseller.
"A very discerning choice."
Sakurako smiled and said," There are several different levels in the sharing model. Novice authors and well-known authors get different shares. You should be able to understand this.”
Ning Ze nodded." What's the highest I can get?”
"I'm just a review editor with limited authority. I can only give you 20% of the profits. In other words, the Bachong Hall will take 80% of the profits, and you will take 20%.”
Ning Ze frowned slightly. 20:80 was indeed a little low.
Sakurako saw through his thoughts and smiled."I can recommend your book to the editor-in-chief. If she's satisfied, you can get a bigger share.”
"That's troublesome."
After chatting about some trivial matters, NingZe returned to the Jinri family.
Sakura Keiko read the manuscript from beginning to end again. The more she read, the more satisfied she was. This was definitely a work that could only be written by a mature author.
With the promotion of the Eight Halls, it would definitely sell well across the entire continent.
At dusk, Sakurako took her manuscript and left Iname Castle for Narugami Daisha.
Under normal circumstances, the editor-in-chief would not come to Iname City. Instead, he would stay in Naruto Great Society to handle related matters.
If he wanted to see her, he could only come to Mingshen Society in person. She would not disturb the chief editor.
After all, that person was not only the chief editor of the Eighth Hall, but also Magus, who was in charge of the Song God Society. She was the Eighth Hall's Palace Secretary and her eternal companion.
When Sakuraeko arrived at the Songjin Shrine, the fluttering cherry blossom petals had already washed away the liveliness of the day.
After passing through the many Torii, under the huge cherry tree, on the wooden steps, the respected chief editor was sipping wine and flipping through a book.
Her lazy and noble temperament made everyone who saw her deeply fascinated.
The dim yellow sunlight shone down, covering every inch of her skin evenly, making her look even more divine.
If Ayaka Kamili was the pure egret that flew in the human world, then the eight-fold Son of God was the Thousand-faced Apostle that walked in the human world in place of the gods.
"Chief Editor, I found an extremely interesting novel today and wanted to show it to you.”
Sakurako said respectfully. The Eightfold Remnant on the steps continued to flip through the book in his hand as if he didn't hear her.
Sakurako understood her personality, so she wasn't in a hurry. She just raised her head slightly and glanced at the cover of the book she was reading." Tonight, the Rock King Emperor came to my bed."
Sakura Keiko glanced at it and quickly looked away. She really couldn't accept this book.
This was one of the recent bestsellers. Many female readers on the mainland secretly hid one or two copies. It was said that some of the readers were male.
Her slender fingers slowly swept across the page. When she reached the end of the scroll, the Eightfold Son of God finally looked down at Sakura Eko, who was standing at the bottom of the steps.
"It seems that I won't be too bored tonight since you've come personally.”
His voice was casual and carried a hint of temptation. It was like the wind that inexplicably invaded the depths of his heart through his ears.
"It is indeed a good book."
Sakura Keiko walked up the steps and presented the manuscript.
The Eightfold Remnant took a look and started flipping through the pages elegantly.
At first, he was just flipping through the pages casually, but gradually, his mind was immersed in the story in the book. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and his smile became wider.
Sakura Keiko heaved a sigh of relief. This meant that it wouldn't be a problem to increase the share of the book by another 20 - 30%.
With the cooperation contract, she would have the opportunity to see the exciting story behind it.
Ever since she became a review editor, she had seen many excellent novels. However, a large number of authors either delayed their updates, cut off their chapters, or ended their novels casually for various reasons.
She really liked this novel and didn't want it to die.
After a long time, the Eightfold Son of God closed the manuscript and smiled." The book is indeed well written, but...”
"But what?" Sakura Keiko was stunned for a moment. Could it be that there was something lacking in this book?
"A fox is never a symbol of pure kindness. A fox like that would never be able to survive in danger.”
