South of Chang 'an City, Jin Yu Academy.
Hua Hongyi, Meng Tianhua, and Liao Fei-chen, these three fellow sufferers, began their daily routine of "morning reading".
However, it was the unlucky Meng Tianhua's turn to buy the newspaper today. He was so unlucky that a copy today cost ten copper coins! It was twice as much as usual.
As Meng Tianhua read the newspaper, he could not help but feel the pinch.
"Oh my god! So many people tipped 'The Legend of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality' yesterday? All of them were tipped! Hiss! How much money does this add up to? That's insane! "
Liao Fei-chen exclaimed as he looked at the red tipping notices behind him. His legs trembled and he almost fell to his knees.
When Hua Hongyi heard this, he looked at it and said, "It adds up to about 10,000 strings of cash!"
Meng Tianhua had already turned his attention over. After he heard Hua Hongyi's words, his eyes widened and his breathing quickened. "Then … then doesn't that mean that Leather Knight received close to five thousand strings of coins from the tipping yesterday?"
Hua Hongyi nodded and said calmly, "That's true. However, this is probably just a random outburst. There won't be so many tipping every day in the future!"
"That's still incredible! I'm willing to write even fifty strings of coins, let alone five thousand strings of coins! "
Meng Tianhua was in a daze. After a while, he stood up abruptly and said,
"No, you guys read it first! I'm going to write a novel. I plan to send it to Datang Daily's editorial department after I've written thirty thousand words to try my luck! "
"Yes, yes, yes, I'm going to write a novel too. Brother Hong Yi, I'll take my leave first!"
After Liao Fei-chen finished speaking, he hurriedly followed Meng Tianhua and walked away.
"Sigh! These two, seriously, do they have to be in such a hurry? "
Hua Hongyi sat on the stone bench and shook his head speechlessly.

Azure Dragon Lane, Wang Family Residence.
After Wang Renbiao finished his breakfast, he sat under the pavilion with a satisfied look on his face. He sipped his tea and read the newspaper. Beside him sat a little girl in a pink dress. The little girl was playing with a small golden badge in her hand. It was the Golden Alliance Leader badge given by the editorial department of Tang Daily.
"Big brother, this badge is really beautiful!"
The little girl said with a grin.
Although Wang Renbiao was interrupted, he didn't show any displeasure on his face. He rubbed the little girl's head and smiled. "Is that so? If Fei 'er likes it, then big brother will give it to you! "
It was rare to be able to give away a badge that was exchanged for a thousand strings of cash.
"Really? Thank you, brother! "
The little girl cheered and ran away.
"Young Master, Yuyao doesn't understand why you would give a thousand strings of coins as a reward to a complete stranger. Moreover, you don't seem to care about the Alliance Leader Badge."
Leng Yuyao asked doubtfully when she saw Wang Renbiao's indifferent expression.
"Hehe, Yao 'er, don't tell me you don't think this' A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality 'is very interesting?"
Wang Renbiao casually said.
Leng Yuyao frowned and said with disdain, "Yuyao doesn't find it interesting at all. From the level of martial arts, this novel is simply nonsense. It doesn't conform to common sense at all. In this world, there can't be any Everlasting Spring Technique, Blink Sword Technique, and there can't be any Immortal Cultivation Sect!"
"Ahem!"
Wang Renbiao was just casually talking nonsense. He didn't expect to hear such an answer. He quickly coughed and said, "It's just a novel. Why are you so serious about it, Yao 'er?"
Actually, there was one thing that Wang Renbiao didn't say. The reason why he gave the reward was mainly because he guessed that the real identity of the author of 'A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality' was Li Zexuan. Moreover, whether it was Li Zexuan or not, this reward would more or less repair the relationship between the two families.
…
Li Residence.
When Li Zexuan was eating breakfast, he looked at the newspaper and was shocked by the huge amount of rewards. This was already beyond his expectations!
"F * ck, this group of scammers. They gave so many rewards. Are they trying to cause trouble! How many chapters will there be in tomorrow's newspaper? "
Li Zexuan felt a little bitter in his heart. Since ancient times, there had been no one who could complain about the number of people who gave out rewards! Sigh, forget it. I'll just draw the map first. The draft at the workshop should be enough to last for another day.
After breakfast, Li Zexuan went straight to the study and began to draw the map wholeheartedly. This map was related to the lives of tens of thousands of people. He couldn't help but be cautious.
Li Zexuan sat quietly on the stool with his eyes closed. He began to slowly recall the maps of the Eurasian continent that he had read in the geography books from his previous life. Every island and every bay flashed past in Li Zexuan's mind. After a full hour, he opened his eyes and began to draw.
His memory and control were excellent now. Mountains, rivers, oceans, and canyons gradually became perfect curves under his pen. He had a good grasp of the proportion and length. It looked like a perfect copy of the map from his previous life. Of course, the place names couldn't be copied.
Li Zexuan didn't know if the tectonic plate movement would cause the world map of the modern era to be different from the one of this era. He was just trying his best to imitate the map in his memory. He believed that even if there were slight differences with the topography of this era, it wouldn't be too big. Such a detailed map was already better than more than 90% of the maps from the Tang Dynasty.
Just like that, Li Zexuan continued to meditate and "copy" the map in his mind onto a piece of paper. He kept his brain working at high capacity until the afternoon.
"Phew! It's really not easy to complete this! I'll never take on this kind of work in the future! It's too tiring! "
Li Zexuan kept rubbing his temples and couldn't help but mumble.
However, the reason why he was able to finish it so early was not only because of his abnormal spiritual power, but also because the fleet was mainly going south by the coastal route. The maps he drew were only coastal nautical charts. As a result, the workload was reduced by more than half. Otherwise, it would take him two or three days to finish drawing the nautical chart.
"Young Master, do you want to eat? Xiao Xi will go to the kitchen and ask them to heat up the food for you! "
Xiao Xi, who had been waiting outside the door, heard her young master's voice and quickly asked.
Li Zexuan's heart felt warm. It felt good to have someone care about you!
"En, eat eat eat. Xiao Xi, go quickly!"
Li Zexuan stood up and stretched his body. Then, he carefully put away the results of his hard work for half a day. Then, he pushed the door open and prepared to eat lunch! Recently, he had been working too hard for work. It really didn't suit his identity as a rich second generation! But if there were fewer people dying in the fleet going south, it would be the best reward for his hard work these days.
