This made sense, but this was just a novel. Wasn't it normal for a pure and kind fox to appear in a fictional story?
Sakura Keiko wanted to defend herself, but she soon remembered the other identity of the editor-in-chief.
The heir of the fox bloodline.
There was probably no one in the entire continent who was more authoritative than her on the topic of foxes.
Since she said that, she must have her reasons.
"Go back and tell that young author what I said.”
"Yes."
Sakura Keiko took the manuscript and hesitated for a moment before saying,""Then, should we still accept this manuscript?”
"What do you think we should do?"
The Eightfold Remnant looked at Sakurako with a smile.
"I understand."
Sakura Keiko quickly understood. If there were good manuscripts, the Baegong Hall would naturally accept them. However, the ratio could only be 20 - 80%. It could not be raised any higher.
The Eightfold Son of God took a sip of the wine in his cup and watched Sakurako leave. He muttered,""A fox is a symbol of craftiness.”
……
The fox was definitely trying to lower the price on purpose. It was taking revenge on him for dividing the book into two parts and hanging people's appetite.
When NingZe heard Sakurako's message, this thought rose in his heart.
There was no doubt about the quality of this novel. The saying that foxes couldn't be pure and kind was definitely an excuse.
After all, the mouth of a fox could not be trusted.
"Actually, a 20:80 split is already a very good result for a new author. As long as your book can become a bestseller, then the income will be very considerable.”
Sakurako tried to persuade him. She did not want the book to end here. She still wanted to read the second and third books.
Ning Ze smiled and handed the second half of the manuscript to Sakurako."Help me pass a message to your editor-in-chief.”
"There will be a second part of this novel. In the second part, the little fox will turn into a human and reveal her mysterious background.”
"I'll pass the message on for you."
Sakurako laughed. She understood what Ningze meant. They were waiting for the right price. Whichever side was interested first would make the first move.
From her point of view, she actually hoped that Ning Ze would have the upper hand. After all, the 20:20 ratio was indeed a little low.
As night approached, Sakurako came to the Wargod Great Society again.
As usual, the Eightfold Son of God was still reading a novel. This time, it was a different book called " How to Raise a Cute Cory."
Hmm…an unusual hobby.
"Oh, is he that confident in his novel?”
The Eighth-Layered Remnant raised his eyebrows slightly and became more interested.
"His work deserves this confidence.”Sakura Keiko handed over the second half of the manuscript.
The Eightfold Remnant took the book and slowly flipped through it.
His good-looking eyebrows relaxed, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. It was obvious that he was excited to see the prey.
Sakurako stood quietly at the side and waited. Occasionally, she would look at the divine cherry tree behind the eight-fold Son of God. It was the resting place of the god's split spirit, and it was silently protecting the people of Inami.
"In the second story, the little fox will turn into a human, a fox that is completely different from me.”
The Eightfold Divine Son laughed after reading it. A pure and kind little fox was indeed worth looking forward to.
After all, beautiful things, even if they were illusory, were still worth looking forward to.
"Chief editor, do you need me to pass on any message to him this time?”Sakura Keiko asked.
"Tell him that we can only increase the price by ten percent at most. If he is unwilling, the Eighth Hall will return his manuscript.”
"Yes." Sakurako accepted the order and left.
After the figure left, the eight-layered divine son turned around and looked at the huge divine cherry tree that covered the sky. Its beauty was just as charming as it was at the beginning.
Time had never left any traces on its body, unlike humans, who would change little by little as time passed.
Back then, he should have been a pure and kind little fox.
What made him become like this today?
What a profound question.
The eighth-layered Remnant smiled faintly and took another sip of the wine.
No matter how much she changed, there were always some things that would not change. The stories in the book and the wine in the glass would always be her favorite.
At the Shinri family's house.
Ning Ze continued to write furiously. Although he had finished the first book, he was prepared to write the second book as well.
If he didn't have time to write in the future, he could use the saved manuscript to deal with it.
As for whether the fox would increase his share, that was not important.
The reason why he had asked someone to send a message to the scurvy fox today was that he did not want her scheme to be too easy to achieve. Otherwise, he would be like a wooden club that could be easily fooled.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Someone knocked on the door.
Ning Ze stopped writing and tidied up his things before getting up to open the door.
The person who came was not Ayaka Kamitani, but a maid. She said that Ayato Kamitani had invited him to the ancient pavilion for a while.
Ning Ze didn't reject this invitation.
He followed the maid through the corridor and walked a long way before arriving at the ancient pavilion.
Moon Receiving Pavilion.
It wasn't welcoming the moon, nor was it inviting the moon. It was receiving the moon, which showed how much the Shinri family respected the moon.
In the pavilion, apart from Ayaren Kamili, Ayaka Kamili was also present.
"Traveler from afar, please sit.”Ayato Shinri smiled and spoke warmly.
Ning Ze sat down on the stone bench and faced the goddess.
NingZe wasn't very familiar with this person. When he played the game, most of his attention was on his cute wives, and the rest of his attention was on the scenery. He really didn't have the extra attention to understand this character.
However, a person who could be the head of a family in Shenli and maintain the overall situation was definitely not a simple person.
It had been a few days since he had arrived at the Shinri family, but Ayato Shinri had only invited him for a meeting today. It was obvious that he was a calm and measured person.
"I've been busy dealing with matters these few days and only had time today. Please forgive me.”
Ayaren Shenli said as she poured a cup of tea for Ningze.
"Lord Patriarch is too polite."
After some small talk, Ayato Kamitani smiled and said,""Can you tell us some interesting stories about the outside world?”
"Naturally."
Ning Ze picked out some of the stories he knew and told them after some embellishment.
There was no lack of wonderful adventure stories and strange experiences, which made Ayaren and Ayaka's hearts surge as they listened.
After a long time, the goddess sighed,"Sigh, I really want to go out and see this vast world."”
"I've heard this saying before, the body is the prison of the heart, and responsibility is the prison of the body."”
The goddess was disappointed, but then she smiled." That's a good sentence."”
