The first step in the book is to start selling tofu

"I'll take this manuscript!" After looking at it for a long time, the shopkeeper finally said this.

Lin Zhi was so happy that she almost jumped up. The excitement she felt was just like the first time she went on stage to receive the award.

However, the excitement did not last long, and soon, Lin Zhi walked out of the library dejectedly.

"This is really too much!" As soon as he reached the door of the library, Lin Zhi couldn't help but raise his middle finger in the direction of the library.

There was a reason why she was so angry. It was because the shopkeeper saw that theirs was the only big bookstore in the entire county that purchased storybooks, so he lowered the price to an extremely low level.

Originally, Lin Zhi expected to calculate his remuneration based on a share of the profits, but what he ended up with was a direct buyout, and the price was only ten taels of silver.

Ten taels of silver may sound like a lot, and it is indeed a considerable sum for ordinary people. It can be saved and used as a family's expenses for two or three years.

But for readers, this price is ridiculously low.

If you just buy some good writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone, the cost will immediately exceed this figure.

Not to mention the time cost, just the pens, ink, paper and inkstone used by Lin Zhi to write the book would cost at least one or two taels of silver!

If it was a low price offered at the beginning and there was still room for bargaining, Lin Zhi would not be so angry.

The shopkeeper was determined to take advantage of her and insisted on the price of ten taels of silver.

"Humph!"

Lin Zhi turned his head away in anger and returned home angrily.

The people at home had already gone out to set up the stall. Lin Zhi picked up the kettle and gulped down the whole kettle of water. Only then did the anger in his stomach subside a little.

"Since the library is not sincere in cooperating, then sell it yourself." Lin Zhi said angrily.

Since they had to find someone to copy it and then sell it anyway, she might as well find someone to copy it herself.

If it is released, I can ask my two brothers for help.

It was just a casual remark, but the more Lin Zhi thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible.

Whenever Lin Zhi had an idea, he wanted to execute it immediately.

It's just that it's too late now, so she can't go out. But she can prepare other things first.

For example, a place where people are recruited and asked to copy books.

Lin Zhi thought of the room in the shop next door that was reserved as an office, which could be converted into a place where people could copy books for others.

She went next door, took a look around, and then went to the carpenter again.

The distance between the carpenter and her house was just the front and back houses, so in the past it was just a matter of lifting his legs.

"Manager Lin, what are you going to order this time?"

The carpenter's family was having dinner, and they were eating the dinner they sold themselves.

Seeing Lin Zhi coming, the carpenter immediately stood up to greet him.

Just like the pork seller, the carpenter now wishes he could offer Lin Zhi a service, as he is a big customer.

The mentality of the shops that cooperate with Lin Zhi is actually similar to that of the carpenters.

"It seems that I came at the wrong time." Lin Zhi felt like backing out when he saw the family having dinner.

"As long as Manager Lin comes, any time is a good time." The carpenter's wife stood up and said, inviting Lin Zhi to share dinner.

Lin Zhi declined several times, but seeing that the carpenter's family was particularly enthusiastic, she made the excuse that she had other things to do at the stall and briefly told them what furniture she wanted.

After making sure, she ran away immediately.

Just kidding, she had already gotten tired of the food in the stall and wouldn't want to eat it again even if you killed her.

After returning from the carpenter's house, Lin Zhi started to cook dinner for the three little ones at home.

Dinner is ready, and it’s almost time for the three little ones to go home.

"Wow! Mom made dinner today."

As soon as Dalang came back, he saw Lin Zhi bringing out dinner and was immediately excited.

During the time when Lin Zhi was immersed in writing, the three little ones cooked their own meals at home.

to be frank,

taste very bad.

I cook every day, but my cooking skills haven't improved at all, which is really rare.

After the family finished their meal, washed up, and counted their money, Lin Zhi told them not to bother with their own things yet, as she had something good for them to see.

"What good stuff?"

The three little ones looked at her expectantly.

The main reason is that the good things Lin Zhi talks about have never disappointed them, so they are always full of expectations.

Lin Zhi handed them the manuscript and the transcribed manuscript.

The two brothers read one copy together, and Daya read one copy alone.

Later, Daya gave her copy to Erlang, and asked the two brothers to each have a copy of the manuscript.

It’s not that Daya is generous or not interested, but Daya hasn’t learned all the words yet and she can’t understand them!

The two brothers took the manuscript and read it carefully.

This look lasted for a long time.

It was so long that Daya didn't want to wait for them anymore and started her own daily study tasks.

"Mom, is there anything else?"

"Mom, what's next?"

The two brothers spoke at the same time, looking at Lin Zhi impatiently.

Lin Zhi shook his head: "There is no follow-up yet!"

The two brothers were extremely disappointed when they heard this and read the manuscript again.

The content of this manuscript was even more attractive than the storybooks they had heard.

When they finished watching it once and wanted to watch it again, Lin Zhi stopped them and asked, "What do you think?"

"It looks great!" the two brothers answered in unison.

"Then do you have any suggestions?" Lin Zhi asked.

"I think the plot of this book is really attractive!" Dalang said first, his voice revealing an irrepressible excitement and admiration.

"Its subject matter is very novel and unique, completely subverting the traditional story model and bringing a brand new reading experience. Moreover, each character in the book has distinct and unique personality traits, which is very impressive.

Their behavior, thoughts, and emotions are so real and believable that they seem to have stepped out of the text...”

Dalang became more and more excited as he spoke, with a gleam in his eyes. He obviously spoke highly of this work and was full of expectations for the development of the plot.

"I think so too." Ji Lang agreed. Perhaps he felt that his answer was too perfunctory, so he added: "It's so good that I want to keep watching it."

"Hahaha, if it's really as good as you say, I'm relieved." Lin Zhi said with a smile, "What do you think is a suitable price?"

The two brothers looked at each other, and Dalang said, "We don't know about this either."

Lin Zhi nodded: "Wait for me to ask someone to copy a few copies, and you can take them to ask other people for their opinions. I will go out and find out how much it should be sold for."

"Okay!" the two brothers agreed in unison.

"Mom." Erlang suddenly shouted.

"What? Is there anything else?" Lin Zhi turned and looked at him.

Erlang swallowed, with a hint of disbelief and trepidation in his eyes: "Mom, this means that you wrote this story yourself, right?"
