Chapter 90 The Exchange Meeting of Yae-do
Ningzhe knew very well that he was playing more of a witness role in this plan.
Liyue hopes to open up the trade route with Daoji by himself, and it is best to make Daoji owe Liyue a favor, which will facilitate the development of various tasks in the future.
As for himself, Ningzhe was not even fully aware of Ningguang's specific plan.
——In fact, he doesn't need to know, because Ningguang can never put him in danger, and all the arrangements are based on the premise of the treaty of "protecting Ningzhe's safety".
But this does not mean that Ningzhe himself did nothing.
In fact...
One thing Ningzhe likes to do is to set up many small details under a big picture, and finally connect them one by one to make it into a bigger picture.
To accomplish this, the Eightfold Divine Son, who is the [Thunder God Scroll Attribute], is an extremely important part of it.
...
Time passed quickly. After the meal, about an hour passed before the editor of Yaedo came to visit in person.
The editor who came to meet Ningzhe was Murata. This capable woman was very familiar with Liyue's [Pillow Jade] master, and her attitude towards Ningzhe was also very good.
She followed the door number and found him. When she saw Ningzhe himself, she kept saying "Master Ningzhe" with a very respectful look and tone, which made Ningzhe himself feel a little uncomfortable.
As far as Ningzhe himself is concerned, he only received such treatment during the days when Mond published novels under the pen name "Stephen King" and when he was in the Liyue Writers Association.
Oops...
If you tell this lady that she is not only the Mondstadian writer [Stephen King] and the great Liyue writer Ningzhe, but also the number one author of Inazuma's popular light novels [Tadokoro Koji], how will she react?
Thinking of that scene... forget it, just think about it. If he really wanted to lose his vest, he would be the first one who couldn't bear it.
On the way to the Eighth Hall, Editor Murata also asked Ningzhe about [Pillow Jade], that is, how Xingqiu is doing recently.
Autumn...
Frankly speaking, the last time Ningzhe returned to Liyue, he had not seen Xingqiu... No, not only Xingqiu, but also Chongyun.
I guess these two guys are probably going somewhere together again.
No, no, no... Rather than traveling together, it is more likely that Xingqiu "deceived" Chongyun that there was an evil spirit somewhere, so the two of them went together... The outcome is not yet known, anyway, these two people should
Not often in Liyue Port.
Regarding this news, Editor Murata said that he was in a good mood and even secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
A writer who can write a martial arts novel like "Shen Qiu Shijian Lu" must also be a person who loves chivalry... And in front of such people, editors generally don't have to worry about whether the manuscript can be delivered on time.
of.
The only thing the editor has to worry about is whether the writer will encounter an accident during a certain heroic act, which would not be a good thing for everyone.
After arriving at the preset location of the Eighth Cathedral Hall, Ningzhe also saw an acquaintance whom he had not seen on the ship before, Abedo, who was wearing casual clothes.
After changing from the alchemist costume of the Knights of the West Wind, Albedo's temperament has changed a lot.
After all, he came to Inazuma as a painting artist, so he would naturally put aside his alchemist's research attitude for a while.
"Albedo!"
After approaching, Ningzhe smiled and said hello to him.
"Ningzhe, I haven't seen you for a while."
Abedo also nodded.
Haven't seen you for a while?
Apparently he had only left Mondstadt for about a week!
After hearing this, the corners of Ningzhe's mouth twitched unconsciously, but he didn't pay much attention to it. After all, this was Dao's wife, and they were both guests.
"So you also know Teacher Bai Chuo? That's great!"
Editor Murata was very happy to see Ningzhe and Abedo greet each other and they looked quite familiar.
"Um?"
Ningzhe was naturally a little confused about Murata's unfounded happiness.
Essentially, the works of [Ningzhe] and [Stephen King] have not been published in Inazuma, so what does it matter whether you recognize Teacher Baichao or not?
"Ah...so you don't know yet? But editor-in-chief Yae told us..."
Seeing Ningzhe's confused expression, Editor Murata was also a little unconfident, but before she finished speaking, another familiar voice came over.
"Oh my, aren't these the great Liyue writer Mr. Ningzhe and the Mondstadt master of painting Mr. Albedo? It's really brilliant that the Eighth Cathedral Hall can invite these two."
Before I saw the person, I heard his voice first.
But in fact, Ningzhe had already guessed who this guy was without seeing her appearance...
Son of the Eightfold God!
"Haha... Editor-in-chief Yae is just joking. It is an honor for me to be able to participate in this exchange meeting held by Yae Hall."
Ningzhe didn't even think about it, and turned backhand with yin and yang like a conditioned reflex.
"Editor-in-chief Yae is flattering me, but I'm just a person who likes painting."
Compared to Ningzhe's strange tone, Abedo was much more serious.
"Hmph... Murata, you go to entertain the other guests first, and leave these two masters to me."
Glancing at Ningzhe, the Eightfold Divine Son said without looking back.
"Yes, editor-in-chief..."
Murata also obviously felt a strange atmosphere, so she did not dare to stay, and after receiving the order, she fled here as if running away.
"Mr. Ning Zhe, do we have any objections to the publication of your book in Yae Chong Tang?"
Seeing his subordinates leaving, Yae Shenzi showed a half-smiling expression.
"Publish what? Publish what?"
Ningzhe smelled the conspiracy very keenly, but he didn't know anything, so he decided to play dumb.
"hehe......"
Seeing Ningzhe's appearance, Yae Shenzi's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he wanted to say something.
At this moment, Abedo suddenly understood something. He quickly bowed slightly, and then said to the two of them: "I suddenly remembered that Editor Murata gave me some suggestions about illustrations last time. I want to talk to her.
Let’s discuss it again.”
After finishing speaking, Abedo left the scene without changing his expression, and the direction he left was also different from the direction Murata left before.
"..."
Seeing that Albedo had also left, Ningzhe took a deep breath, then looked at the Eightfold God Son with a dead fish eye.
He knew that Yae Shenzi had long been very jealous of his series of books such as "Liyue Loyalty Water Margin", "The Story of the Stone", "The Shining", etc., and he had mentioned more than once that he wanted to have another copy published by Yae Tang.
Originally, he didn't care about this kind of thing, but the problem is that these are under the control of the publishing house, and he is just an author...
"In that case, let's put this matter aside for now."
Yae Shenzi rolled his eyes and decided to start anew and attack in a different way.
"Coral Palace Xinhai will come to Eighth Hall soon. I heard that you are interested in Haiqi Island?"
Upon hearing the words "Haiqi Island", Ningzhe's eyes immediately lit up.
"It's easy to say. From now on, the publishing rights of [Ningzhe] and [Stephen King] in Inazuma will belong to Yaeido. We have a happy cooperation."
These words are so clear and flowing that they can be said to be impeccable.
"Haha... Then we can cooperate happily."
Ningzhe laughed, and so did Yae Shenzi.
Although there were only a few sentences, the information they exchanged seemed to be more than that.
Chapter completed!
