My Prime Minister is so cute

.......

Similar things have happened to many fashion designers and writers.

Under the money-throwing offensive of "Happy Paradise", creators abandoned their so-called moral integrity and contributed to "Happy Paradise" anonymously.

In fact, the bitter feeling has never disappeared from people's hearts.

It was just that due to the constraints of the times and the pressure of public opinion, people did not dare to discuss it publicly, and fashion magazines had never published similar clothing.

But when they freed themselves from their inner constraints and followed the requirements of "Happy Paradise", a series of absurd and interesting costume designs immediately emerged. Although some were rather bizarre, there were also many excellent designs...

Misabel didn't expect to receive so many replies.

She originally thought that at most a few people would respond to a few submissions under the temptation of money.

As a result, there were so many manuscripts that the pages of "Happy Paradise" could not accommodate them all. We just had to select the best ones and screened out several of the best works, including Scott's hollow lace works.

"How can it still be like this?"

Misabelle's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but sigh, "It's so translucent, half-transparent, whoever designed this is a genius! It's so cool!!!"

Just by imagining what this equipment would look like on a woman, she felt her phantom limb go a little straight.

"Calm down, we're still working."

Misabel forced herself to calm down: "It's decided, this is the cover of this issue!"

As for the remaining works, she didn't plan to waste them, so she paid each person a varying amount of royalties.

After all, in the initial stage, what is most needed is to cultivate a group of stable contributors.

However, this inevitably increased expenses again. Seeing that the small treasury that had made a little money recently thanks to Bersabia was visibly shrinking, Misabel couldn't help but show a look of heartache.

After muttering a few words.

Misabel took another look at the design draft and couldn't help but exclaim "It's so astringent". She turned around and went into the bathroom with her handkerchief.

Chapter 144 How to Thank Teacher Bird

One week later.

It’s time for the new issue of “Happy Paradise” to be released.

This time, Reginald no longer hid like before, but walked into the bookstore openly.

"Boss, give me a copy of 'Happy Paradise'." He said with his head held high and his chest puffed out.

Ever since Sarah's speech at Irvine College, everyone knew that she had submitted her manuscript to "Happy Paradise" magazine because it was rejected by "Magic World". Everyone talked about it with relish, feeling sorry for Teacher Bersabia's bad luck and expressing contempt for the vision of "Magic World".

The reputation of "Magic World" suffered considerable damage for a while.

At the same time, the purchase of "Happy Paradise" suddenly didn't attract as much disdain - after all, everyone was there to support Teacher Bersabia, not to buy some adult magazine...

Just as Reginald thought so.

"20."

The bookstore owner coldly quoted a price.

Reginald was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage: "Old Deng, don't go too far! Last time you wanted to triple the price and refused to give me the stock, but this time you're actually doubling the price. That's not how you make money!"

"Tsk, buy it if you want."

The boss curled his lips and said disdainfully, "I'm saving it for you this time because you're a regular customer. I wouldn't sell it to others even if they were offering five times the price."

"What? Five times the price? Are those people crazy?"

Reginald was shocked and said, "It's just an adult magazine. Besides, Mr. Bersabia hasn't been serializing it recently, has he?"

"Those guys aren't crazy. This issue of 'Happy Paradise' is really good. You'll know once you read it." The boss explained, "If you can't afford it, buy one. I'll sell it to you for 20. I'm definitely not ripping you off."

"Is this true? I've bought so many issues of Happy Paradise and I still don't know the quality of it."

Reginald was skeptical.

"Believe it or not," the boss said disdainfully, "If you don't buy it, there are plenty of people who will."

Seeing him like this, Reginald decided to trust him for once. He gritted his teeth and took out 20 yuan: "Okay, give me one."

He decided that if the quality remained the same, he would never buy from this store again.

The boss took the money, smiled mysteriously, and slowly took out a copy of "Happy Paradise" from the counter...

Just one glance.

Reginald's gaze was fixed on it.

It is different from the simple and even low-quality black and white printing in the past.

The cover of this issue of "Happy Paradise" is actually a very seductive color picture of a girl with blonde hair and big breasts. She is wearing only a piece of black underwear that has never been seen before. The semi-transparent texture makes people want to stuff themselves into it.

hiss--

Reginald had never seen this before. He immediately gasped and his eyes almost popped out of his head: "This, this, this, this, this..."

What are you thinking?

The blonde on the color cover is already pretty cool, but she's wearing some lingerie that's even cooler than nothing!

It's clearly partially covered, but it's even more impressive than not covering anything at all! How did he do that? Is the person who invented this outfit a genius? Is the person who came up with this cover for "Happy Paradise" a genius?

He couldn't help but take this copy of "Happy Paradise" home and hide in his room!

You don’t even need to read the content, the cover alone is enough!

"How about it? I didn't lie to you, did I?"

The boss then said calmly, "In fact, the moment I got this issue of 'Happy Paradise', I rushed into the room seven times by myself."

Seven times???

Reginald was shocked.

It was not until this moment that he noticed the boss's extremely pale face and his fat body that was trembling and looked like it would fall down with a gust of wind.

"Are you okay?" Reginald swallowed and asked subconsciously.

"fine."

The bookstore owner waved his hands weakly: "I'm just a little weak, I'll be fine after a few days of rest..."

"Take care of yourself, boss," said Reginald.

"I want to, too, but the cover of 'Happy Paradise' is so erotic," the boss lamented. "I've seen the cover seven times already. I don't even dare to open it to read the contents, for fear of losing control!"

Reginald was stunned for a moment: "Boss, didn't you read the contents?"

"Yeah, what if I can't control it?"

The bookstore owner shook his head and said, "I'm not young anymore. Seven times is the limit. Any more and I'll be dead! I still want to live a few more years."

"Oh, thinking about my youth...I won't mention it anymore." The bookstore owner shook his head.

"I see."

Reginald glanced at his boss's pale face, nodded, and said firmly, "Don't worry, boss. I will inherit your will!"

"No matter how difficult it is, I will read the entire "Happy Paradise" thoroughly!"

"I'm betting my dignity as a young man!"

.......

at the same time.

The editorial department of "Happy Paradise" has already started celebrating.

"It's a big hit, boss."

Editor Wilson said excitedly, "The new issue of 'Happy Paradise' was sold out instantly. So many people were fighting outside the bookstore trying to get a copy!"

"It's said that a copy of this book is already selling for 100 yuan on the black market, ten times the price!"

"And this time it's not because of Mr. Bersabia's work, but truly because of the strength of our magazine!"

At this time, Misabel was sitting behind the desk, holding a cup of black tea in her hand.

Listen to the reports from my subordinates.

She had been worried in recent days because of the huge amount of financial expenditure, but now she finally smiled with relief and took a small sip.

Sure enough, Mr. Bird's advice was correct.

Only high-quality, high-end mature magazines can survive and appear in the public eye. The low-quality small-scale magazines of the past have no future.

As long as I continue along this path, sooner or later, "Happy Paradise" will become a behemoth like "Magic World", and my dream of everyone on the street holding a copy of "Happy Paradise" will come true!

Thinking of this, Misabel couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

But then again, how can we express our gratitude to Mr. Bird for providing such important help and route guidance?

While thinking about how to repay.

Misabel's eyes caught sight of the "Happy Paradise" on the table. She looked at the portrait of a blonde girl wearing black lace underwear on the cover with a thoughtful expression.

Chapter 145 Misabelle in a Cloak

hostel.

Bird stood by the window, enjoying his rare leisure time.

Calculating the time, I have been in Central City for almost half a month, and I have almost finished all the things I need to do.

The order for street lights has been signed. The first batch will replace all 300 aging and dilapidated magic lamps in the capital with new electric lamps. Subsequent minor replacements will be made every month and major replacements will be made every six months. The Nad family will also be responsible for subsequent maintenance and repairs.

Although the profit is not much, it is a long-term benefit, and it is estimated that there may be wealthy towns following suit in the future.

Pan-magicism has officially appeared in the public eye, and what remains is to continue to expand its scope of influence, which requires gradual progress.

It's time to head back to the Forks.

I don’t know if the district chief has caused any trouble at home during this period.

But at least Phoebe is watching over us, so there shouldn't be any problem...right?

Bird thought to himself.

Tuk-tuk-tuk——

There was a knock on the door.

Wondering who was knocking on the door, Bird went to open it and saw a petite figure covered in a hood and cloak.

At first he thought it was Sarah.

After all, when the great writer is about to do something shameful, such as going to a bookstore to purchase something, she will put on a concealing hood and cloak, trying to make others not recognize her, but she doesn't know that this will only attract more attention.

If the people who were paying attention to her hadn't discovered that she had taken a few adult books and magazines, they would probably have called the police.

However, after seeing a hint of green bangs showing in front of the hood, Bird gave up the idea.

"May I ask you are?"

He asked a little uncertainly.

"Teacher Bird, don't you recognize me?" The petite figure in front of him took off his hood, revealing a pretty face.

Judging from her appearance, it is hard to imagine that Misabelle is the editor-in-chief and boss of "Happy Paradise". After all, her first impression is that of a quiet and slender girl, the kind of well-behaved girl who studies well and speaks in a soft voice.

In contrast, Sarah, who was always shouting, didn't find it strange to learn that she was reading Sese's books in private.

But you can't judge a person by his appearance.

Rather than just hiding and sneaking around, this guy in front of me was actually taking action, funding and publishing a successful magazine like "Happy Paradise", and even dreaming of having a copy for everyone. He was a heavyweight! In the game, he'd be at least a small-time leader of a dark organization.

But then again, why does the editor wear a cape and a hood?

She definitely wasn't trying to hide her identity. Last time she came to see him openly in casual clothes, so there was no reason for her to hide her identity this time.

But if it's not to hide my identity, what else can I hide...

"Oh, Editor Misabella."

Confused, Bird took a step back calmly and nodded slightly: "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"

"I came to thank you."
