The end of the Ming Dynasty swept the world

Chapter 908 The Threat of the Golden Retriever
"Mr. Xu, has he ever eaten crabs?" Ding Yi asked suddenly.

Xu Ying froze for a moment, then nodded slowly: "I have."

"Crabs are ugly and have a strange shape." Ding Yi said slowly: "When I ate it for the first time, I was thinking, how can this thing be eaten?"

"After eating crab roe and crab paste, I thought it was delicious."

"I'm not only thinking, who was the first to eat crabs? This person is very courageous and has brought benefits to future generations."

Eating crabs was popular in the Ming Dynasty. After Ding Yi ascended the throne, the palace often took the lead in eating crabs, so this will be a big fight against eating crabs, which is similar to later generations.

Xu Ying listened to Ding Yi's words with a smile on her face.

"Mr. Ye is very good at deceiving people." Xu Ying laughed loudly.

Song Deming looked at Xu Ying strangely, it was rare for Xu Ying to laugh out loud in front of strangers.

He hasn't read the next five chapters yet, but now listening to the conversation between the two, he has already realized that there may be something different in the next five chapters.

Xu Ying handed the manuscript to Song Deming at this time, and Song Deming quickly read it.

Xu Ying walked small steps left and right in the room, as if thinking about the consequences of being the first to eat a crab.

Daqian owns the Red Mansion in Ding Yi's hands, and charges high taxes. If the court is like this, what's wrong with me serializing some romantic novels?
If the business of Tianxia Magazine was booming a few years ago and the sales volume was leading, Xu Ying would not dare to do this, and the Xu family in Songjiang could not afford to lose face.

But now she has to consider another issue. If she doesn't accept it, Ding Yi will take it to other magazines and let other magazines be the first to eat crabs. At that time, they will follow up and seize such a market again. , but passive.

Also, how many people in Dagan are willing to write this kind of novel, and their level can reach Ding Yi's level?

Then Pu Renfeng would definitely not do such a thing. He has achieved great success and is known as the No. 1 new martial arts novel in China. How could he lower his status and write Fengyuewen.

bet.

Thinking of this, Xu Ying slapped the table hard.

"One cent and five characters, all copyrights are thirty-seven cents, seven for us, three for you."

"Mr. Xu, you are too stingy, you should be a word." Ding Yi followed her to start a half-hour-long tug-of-war, and the two bargained for a long time.

final decision.

Two characters for one cent, all copyrights, four or six cents, four for the magazine, six for Ding Yi.

Xu Ying also promised to increase Ding Yi's price at any time according to the sales volume.

Of course, she was thinking in her heart at the time that only the senior executives of the Xu family knew the sales data, and whether they met the standard by then was not up to them.

At this time, Xu Ying thought that she had everything under control.

After Ding Yi signed the contract with her, he handed over [-] manuscripts and left.

Tianxia Shi magazine issues every three days, each issue has [-] words.

It means that Ding Yi has to write a thousand words every day.

His current price for a thousand characters is 50 yuan, which is definitely a high salary for a big job now.

But that was far from his plan.

In the end, he wants to sell the copyright and make movies and TV shows.

After watching Ding Yi leave, Xu Ying was still staring at the door in a daze.

"Miss?" Song Deming called out cautiously.

Xu Ying came to her senses: "His real name is Ding Yi?"

Song Deming disturbed his head and called Ding Yi, isn't there a lot of people?

After Emperor Yong'an came to power, people were not allowed to have the same name as members of the royal family, but they did not order it to be corrected.

Xu Ying felt strange, because when she saw Ding Yi for the first time just now, she immediately had a strong sense of familiarity.

Especially when Ding Yi slowly told her about the crab, Xu Ying even had the illusion that she had known this person countless years ago.

She shook her head heavily, finally regaining her sanity.

"It's good for you to work overtime, prepare immediately, and the next issue will be released nationwide simultaneously."

She thought for a while, and said, "This is the cover of this issue."

"Ah?" Song Deming was shocked. The cover is usually used for advertising, which can make money, and it is also another source of income for the magazine.

Now this is to give up advertising and go all out to promote this novel.

"Oh, what, we must win this battle. If we lose to the Dahan Group, we will be finished."

"Yes, Miss."
-
Ding Yi was in a better mood when he came out of the magazine.

From now on, he basically has a stable income.

Selling beer is at least 50 yuan a day, and novels are [-] yuan a day. For the time being, reading novels is behind, but the follow-up will definitely work hard.

But beer is sold day by day, and when everyone wants to do it later, he has a premonition that the sales of beer will drop sharply in a year or so at most.

So in the long run, fiction is the main source of money.

At this time, after these few days of sales, he already had 6000 yuan in his hand.

Ding Yi installed another phone in the office to ensure that others can find him in time.

Then he would get up in the morning as usual, run, exercise, and then write novels. Usually, he could write about [-] words in the morning, teach Ruoruo at noon, write another [-] or [-] words in the afternoon, and go to various KTVs in the evening.

Every day suddenly becomes full, and there is almost no time to spare.

But it's been less than a week.

Some bad news came, Brother Dali found Ding Yi with a depressed face.

A KTV has never used Ding Yi's wine, and then found that many people order beer now, so they started to use the 500ML Dongxiao beer on the market.

This KTV is relatively large, it is the top five KTV in Hengdian, it is called Tianhe International KTV.

The boss behind it is quite big, and it is said that he has the official background of Hengdian Town, and the person watching this KTV is none other than the 'Golden Tiger' Gu Tianen, one of the Hengdian Four Tigers.

Gu Tianen is the richest and most powerful of the four tigers. His elder brother is the director, and his company shoots tartar dramas in Hengdian all the year round.

Gu Tianen was imprisoned for fighting back then, and he was released after three years of imprisonment. He gathered around a group of reformed and released prisoners, and he occupied a large number of intermediary businesses in Hengdian.

Recently, he saw people drinking beer in other KTVs, so he decided to do it himself. He bought Dongxiao beer from outside and sold it.

Because Ding Yi sent wine in every box, Gu Tianen also followed Ding Yi's example.

But he laughed at the fact that the beer cost twenty-five cents to buy, and he had to give away a few bottles first, so he asked for eighty cents.

At that time, Gu Tianen thought so, you sell beer for KTV for [-] yuan, and I sell it for [-] cents. The low price will kill you.

Unexpectedly, customers did not eat this set at all.

Te Niang's Dongxiao beer sells for twenty-five cents, and you sell it for eighty cents?When we are fools?

Gu Tianen said angrily, what about others selling it for one dollar and five?
People say that others are only for KTV and cannot be bought in the market, but your beer can be bought in any small shop.

Damn, Gu Tianen was furious, people these days are really cheap.

He obviously felt that the Dongxiao beer was higher, not only 500ML, but also had a high alcohol content, but singers didn't want it.

There is no way, this kind of wine is also sold outside, and it costs twenty-five cents. If you sell it for eighty cents, who wants it?
Gu Tianen wanted to be reduced to fifty cents again.

But think about it, Ding Yi has to send it to every box.

He has to learn how to give it to each box, and fifty cents may not be able to make money, the key is that people still feel that it is expensive.

Gu Tianen is upset, he is not short of money, otherwise he would not refuse Ding Yi to sell wine here.

But other people's KTV can sell beer, and sell it at a high price, and he is very upset if his can't sell it.

Soon he found out that Brother Dali was involved in this matter.

And Brother Dali's boss, Han Xiaohu has a good relationship with Gu Tianen.

Gu Tianen called Han Xiaohu: "I heard that your younger brother sells alcohol in KTV, please tell him not to sell it in my territory, otherwise, it is only for beer, I want it, sell it to me."

Gu Tianen wanted to grab Ding Yi's business, but he was not doing it for money, he was doing it for face and to export his anger.

I, Gu Tianen, can't sell beer, and neither can you.

Ding Yi had several occasions that were covered by Gu Tianen, but these KTVs have signed contracts with Ding Yi, so it cannot be said that Ding Yi will not come.

Gu Tianen put pressure on Han Xiaohu and asked Ding Yi to retreat by himself.

Brother Dali has been really high-spirited these days.

Not only does he have a share of the money, but his brothers can also earn some money at night.

Everyone was thinking of a bright future, when Han Xiaohu suddenly greeted him, let him give up Gu Tianen's territory, he wants to save face, he is from the same town, he doesn't see him when he looks up, he sees him when he looks down, forget it.

Brother Dali was very annoyed at the time, didn't say anything, and immediately came to Ding Yi.

Ding Yi's business has been getting better and better these days, and he has received more than 1 yuan in cash.

For the first pot of gold in his life this time, he has not slept until three or four in the morning for several nights in a row.

Because he knows that this is quick money, and someone will come out and grab it soon.

I just didn't expect that resistance would come so soon.

"Is the golden retriever very good?" Ding Yi asked.

"At least in Hengdian, it's very good." Dali said, "He has eight hundred younger brothers in his hands, so you say he's good or not."

"Craft." Ding Yi thought to himself, I used to have an army of 80, bah, a hero doesn't mention his bravery back then.

Right now, a hooligan leader can kill Ding Yi, even if he refuses to accept it.

He was silent for a moment, thinking over and over again in his mind.

The Xinshou Village in the second crossing is actually quite good. Hengdian is a small town with a developed economy and a large population, which is very suitable for Ding Yi to earn his first pot of gold.

But I didn't expect that in less than two weeks, I had already offended two of the Hengdian Four Tigers.

If Han Xiaohu doesn't give him face, he will offend three of them at once.

Can this Hengdian survive?

But if you want him to quit and give up the KTV's special beer to Gu Tianen, it's definitely not acceptable.

What Gu Tianen wants is face.

"Can you arrange for me to meet Gu Tianen?" Ding Yi asked.

Brother Dali shrugged: "I don't have such a big face, or I'll ask the boss."

"Forget it, I'll go see him myself, does he often stay at Tianhe International?"

"Usually he will be there at night."

At around nine o'clock that night, Ding Yi, Brother Dali, and Feng Zai came to Tianhe International.

Brother Dali is quite loyal and willing to accompany Ding Yi over here.

He also found an acquaintance to ask, Gu Tianen has a guest today, and he is singing in the No. 1 box.

The man said that the guest was very honorable and came from the provincial capital.

Ding Yi went upstairs without saying a word.

When they reached the third floor, they found that there were several gangster-like thugs in the corridor, who should be Gu Tianen's bodyguards.

They are basically outside Box 1.

Seeing the unfamiliar Ding Yi, everyone's eyes instantly gathered.
