The Ming Dynasty in Another World: People are in the Heavenly Prison, and Wuji becomes a Taoist
Chapter 32: Meeting each other late, making money by writing books
Tongfu Teahouse.
After finishing the storytelling, Li Changshou made a bow and came off the stage.
Walking to Lin Mo's desk, he cupped his hands and said, "Brother Lin, you're here."
Lin Mo stood up and greeted: "Mr.'s storytelling is extremely exciting. After listening to it once, I will never forget it. I saw the poster of your performance posted in the teahouse yesterday, so I naturally wanted to come and support it."
Li Changshou was naturally very happy to be praised.
"Don't always speak for yourself. It sounds like I'm just like those old academics in school. Why don't you call me longevity!"
"Okay, then I'll ask you to call him Brother Changshou."
The two sat down and started talking.
The shopkeeper of Tongfu Tea House felt strange when he saw this scene.
Li Changshou, a young man with a proud personality, how could he take the initiative to say hello to a young man?
Are you still chatting so passionately?
Li Changshou asked: "From Brother Lin's accent, is he a native of Kyoto?"
Lin Mo nodded: "Yes, my ancestral home is Hubei, but my grandfather's generation fled to Kyoto to take root. I grew up in Kyoto."
"I haven't thanked Brother Lin for helping me name my name last time. Today, Changshou will give me tea instead of wine to express my gratitude!"
Li Changshou picked up the tea on the table and drank it in one gulp.
Lin Mo also drank a drink, waved his hand and said: "It's just a small effort, there is no need to be so polite."
Li Changshou's face was filled with a happy smile.
"I have submitted the manuscript of "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" to the newspaper, but the editor said that there is a martial arts novel that has not yet been completed, and it will not be published until it is completed."
"Congratulations to the longevity brother!" Lin Mo clasped his fists and said, "When it is published, I will definitely read the masterpiece."
"What a masterpiece, it's just an ordinary novel..."
Li Changshou was humble again and again.
Lin Mo thought to himself, then you really underestimate yourself.
I don’t know how influential “The Legend of Shushan Swordsman” is!
However, Lin Mo could understand his mood.
Due to the limitations of the times, he may have felt that his novels were too advanced.
I'm worried that people who are used to seeing Three Heroes and Five Righteousnesses won't be able to accept it.
"Senior Brother Chenglin's good words."
Li Changshou handed over.
Lin Mo's praise gave him a little more confidence.
"Looking at Brother Lin's conversation, it seems like he went to a Western school?"
"No, I just love Western reading. I deal with a bunch of lay people on weekdays, so naturally I speak a little more indulgently, not as restrained as a scholar."
Lin Mo's lies came out of his mouth.
"I see that Brother Changshou often comes to the teahouse to perform storytelling every few days. Is it because he is busy on weekdays?"
Li Changshou took a sip of tea and nodded.
"I have an editor's job at the People's Voice Daily, and I just do a few commentaries on the side."
Lin Mo said in surprise: "Oh? Brother Changshou is very good at storytelling. I thought he was from the pear garden."
Li Changshou explained: “My family has been engaged in the pear garden-related business since my great-grandfather’s generation. When I came here, although I had practiced pear garden kung fu since I was a child, I didn’t like it from the bottom of my heart.
I like to listen to stories, and I also like to write stories. The feeling of squandering pen and ink in books, igniting passion, wandering around the world, and being unconstrained, is much more interesting than the boring life in a pear garden..."
Lin Mo was convinced.
"Life is short, you should do what you love."
In his previous life, he also liked to write books.
Unfortunately, I wrote ten books in succession, each of which did not exceed 200,000 words. In the end, it was a flop.
Suddenly, an idea came into his mind.
Although he can't write his own story, he can stand on the shoulders of giants!
In his previous life, he still loved reading.
The plots of many novels are in his mind.
"Brother Lin is so right!"
Hearing what Lin Mo said, Li Changshou felt for the first time that someone could truly understand his thoughts.
I also feel like I regret meeting Lin Mo too late.
He continued: "Unfortunately, my family did not agree with me writing a book, but I was very insistent and caused a lot of awkwardness. In the end, my family couldn't bear it, so they made a request.
That is, I have to come to the teahouse to talk about storytelling three times a week, and they will not stop me from doing what I like. "
Lin Mo smiled and said: "It seems that your father is still very open-minded."
Li Changshou also smiled and took a deep breath.
"Yes, it's pretty good now. Although it will be a little tiring, I can do what I like and I'll be happy every day."
Lin Mo nodded.
He asked: "Brother Changshou, I would like to ask, what is the salary at the newspaper?"
Li Changshou said: "What? Brother Lin also wants to join a newspaper? Major newspapers are different..."
Lin Mo shook his head.
"No, I have a friend who also writes novels. I want to see if I can submit a manuscript to a newspaper."
Li Changshou subconsciously thought, this friend couldn't be you, right?
However, he is a very well-educated person, so naturally he would not ask such an abrupt question in person.
He thought for a while and said: "In this way, I will have a storytelling performance in two days. You can ask your friend to write part of the content first and show me the manuscript. If it is good, I can help you submit it to our newspaper. Contribute.”
"Okay, then I'll thank you on my friend's behalf."
The two chatted for a few more words. It was getting late, and then they stood up and said goodbye.
When returning home, Lin Mo bought a newspaper "People's Voice".
This newspaper serialized storytelling and novels.
Let’s leave aside storytelling for now.
The novel is a very primitive martial arts novel, which has not yet left the category of Three Heroes and Five Righteousnesses.
Lin Mo thought that he might be able to contribute and copy a few martial arts novels to earn some royalties.
Of course, making money is not the goal.
After all, he is not short of money now.
In this day and age, one can buy a house for less than a thousand yuan.
His ten thousand yuan was considered a huge sum of money.
It's just that it's okay for him to spend a little money on weekdays.
If you want to spend a lot of money, it will be easy for others to notice you.
Especially since his money came from a shady source.
Lin Mo had actually wanted to buy a house for a long time.
The courtyard where he lived was crowded with people.
Many things are inconvenient to do.
Take martial arts training as an example. He wanted to make big moves, but he couldn't do them.
If he can make some money by writing books, he can use the money generously in the future.
Lin Mo suddenly understood why some people in later generations wanted to launder money.
Black money is hot!
So which novel should we "learn from"?
After much deliberation, he chose "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
First of all, the most popular novels on the market today are martial arts novels.
Secondly, the righteousness of family and country in it makes Lin Mo feel heart-stirring every time he reads it.
There is nothing in the plot that makes people think it is poisonous.
The most important thing is that this is the book that he remembers most deeply.
The narrative background of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is grand and combined with real history to depict the chivalrous tenderness of the heroic sons and daughters.
The identity of the protagonist is not the traditional knight in old martial arts novels.
Old-style martial arts novels are nothing more than about the love between men and women, personal grudges and so on.
To put it bluntly, it is vulgar.
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" contains the great interests of the nation and the rise and fall of the country.
The novel has been elevated to the level of the country and the nation.
"The great chivalrous man serves the country and the people!"
This sentence alone makes it different from traditional martial arts novels!
Lin Mo went home and found pen and paper, and started writing.
With divine help, I wrote more than 5,000 words in one night.
It's a bit late, so I have to leave the rest until tomorrow.
He sorted out his manuscript and went to bed.
