The ending of "The Mortal" triggered a huge tipping chain effect. Datang Daily's offices in Chang 'an City were overcrowded with people. Thousands of copper coins were being pulled in continuously. The shopkeepers of the other shops were envious! Because the income of this office in a day was equivalent to ten or even a hundred years of their income!
"Tsk tsk! It really made one's eyes red with envy! But the one who benefited the most should be the Leather Knight who wrote "The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality", right? He will get a share of the tipping Datang Daily receives! I didn't expect this! Writing novels can actually make so much money! "
The shopkeeper of a calligraphy and painting shop next to the Datang Daily's office stood at the entrance of the shop. He couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the rich people next door.
This old man must have not seen the miserable situation of the other failed authors. That's why he was so emotional, right?
"Eh? Xiao Le? Why did you come out from there? "
The shopkeeper's eyes suddenly widened. He saw his shop assistant coming out of the office. He quickly went forward to grab the assistant and asked.
"Uh … Shopkeeper, I … I saw that it was quite lively here, so I went to take a look …"
The assistant said hurriedly.
"Eh? Just to take a look? "
The shopkeeper was old and experienced. How could he not see that the assistant was lying?
"Uh … I really just went to take a look …"
"Nonsense! Tell me! How much did you tip them? "
The shopkeeper was so angry that he kicked him. The manservant subconsciously dodged, but he didn't expect that a light blue badge would fall out from his sleeve. The shopkeeper bent down and nimbly picked it up. After looking at it carefully, he suddenly said in a bad mood, "You're too young. You're too young.
"You stinking brat! Just a while ago, you were complaining to me that you were poor and that your mother was sick! Now? You actually went to tip 'The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality'! How much did you tip? "Apprentice?" If I remember correctly, you need to tip five hundred copper coins in order to get the apprentice badge, right? You're really something! "
After saying this, the shopkeeper kicked the manservant two more times in exasperation.
"Shopkeeper, I didn't lie to you! My mother was indeed sick before, but she has already recovered! These five hundred copper coins were saved by this little one over the past half a year of frugality! I feel that 'A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality' is well written. Now that it's finished, I have to do something! "
The manservant rubbed his buttocks and argued.
The shopkeeper frowned. A moment later, he slapped the back of the manservant's head and said, "Bastard! Why didn't you tell this old man that you wanted to give a reward? Go and tell the accountant to withdraw ten strings of coins. Help this old man reward 'The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality'! "
The manservant was stunned, and then he replied with a smile, "Hey hey! I'll go right away! "
A moment later, the manservant came out with a large bag of copper coins. Suddenly, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Shopkeeper, are you only giving ten strings of coins? I feel that with your status, you should at least reward him with an alliance master! "
He had yet to see what the Guild Leader Badge looked like! It was a good opportunity to broaden his horizons!
"Scram!"
The shopkeeper's face darkened as he roared.
… … …
This was only a miniature version of 'Mortal's' fans, but it also showed how popular 'Mortal' was among the masses. From the commoners at the bottom to the officials and dignitaries at the top, there would always be people who would laugh and be moved by 'Mortal'. Now that 'Mortal' had finished, it was like a fuse that completely ignited the love of 'Mortal' in their hearts. Naturally, the rewards would come flooding in!
In the afternoon, Li Zexuan found out about the crazy rewards caused by the ending of 'Mortal'. In fact, he hadn't paid attention to this novel for a long time. This was because he had already finished writing the rest of the novel more than a month ago. At Datang Daily, the daily updates were the drafts that he had submitted in advance.
"Marquis! The reward income from this day's rewards is probably tens of thousands of strings of coins! Aren't we making too much money? "
Ma Zhou exclaimed to Li Zexuan as he held a report in his hand.
At the beginning, the 'business' under Li Zexuan's name was Datang Daily. Later on, when Datang Daily started to accept advertisements from commoners' shops, they recovered some of their losses. Every month, they could earn at least a few thousand strings of coins. But now, the income from the 'Bragging World' section had completely exploded, and the profits were so shocking that Ma Zhou couldn't help but admire Li Zexuan's foresight!
"If you want to make a lot of money, you have to have good novels! A popular novel like 'The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality' is too rare! "
Li Zexuan shook his head and said.
It was undeniable that 'The Mortal' had some shortcomings, but it was also a great novel. Now, there were dozens of novels imitating the 'Mortal's Journey to Immortality' in 'Datang Daily – Bragging World'. This was the best proof!
Ma Zhou chuckled, his eyes shining with wisdom. He said, "For others, it might be extremely difficult to create a novel that is as good as' The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality '. But for Marquis, it shouldn't be difficult!"
Others might not know who the author of 'The Mortal' was, but how could Ma Zhou, the 'editor-in-chief' of Datang Daily, not know who it was? He had previously asked Li Zexuan for a draft!
It was precisely because of his confidence in Li Zexuan that he said such a thing!
After all, Li Zexuan had created too many miracles. What was there to be surprised about if there were one or two more?
Li Zexuan heard that and smiled without saying anything.
Ma Zhou couldn't help but ask, "When does Marquis plan to write the next novel?"
Li Zexuan thought for a while and said, "I don't plan to write it in the near future! Maybe next year! "
Ma Zhou was disappointed. "Then I guess many people will be disappointed! Marquis, you don't know this, but many of the people who gave you tips because of the ending of 'Mortal Man' are commoners at the bottom of society. They scrimped and saved up a few hundred copper coins and used it all to tip you! "
Li Zexuan was touched. In this Datang, not only were the commoners simple and honest, even the readers were so stubborn and cute!
"Brother Ma, you don't have to persuade me anymore! I definitely won't have time to write another novel this year! Good food is not afraid of being late. For next year's new novel, I will definitely not disappoint the readers of 'The Mortal'! "
Li Zexuan shook his head and sighed. He couldn't bear it and added, "In a while, I will write a speech. I'll have to trouble Brother Ma to publish it on 'Dahua Jianghu' tomorrow!"
Ma Zhou knew that it was impossible, so he didn't try to persuade him. Besides, there was only a month left in the year. He didn't have much time left. Hence, he cupped his hands and replied, "Yes, Marquis!"
