Chapter 219 A Beautiful Blueprint
When Xu Xue heard this, her eyes instantly brightened: "Will it really happen? Will they like to come and look for my new book?"
"Yes, definitely." Zhao Ruxi said, "You write so well, how come there aren't others like you? Maybe there are few people like this at the beginning, but when you write better and better each book, such people will naturally
That’s a lot.”
Xu Xue has been so excited by the beautiful blueprint drawn by Zhao Ruxi that she is eager to go back and write another storybook now.
"The more you write, the better and your fame will grow. If someone likes your subsequent books after seeing them, they will come to read your first and second novels. In other words, every time you write another novel, they will
The storybook will bring a wave of sales to the previous books, and the long-term income will definitely be greater than the income of six or even twenty taels of silver."
Xu Xue originally only focused on the few taels of silver she received from this book. But after Zhao Ruxi's analysis, she felt that what was unfolding in front of her was a bright road and broad prospects for life planning. As long as she writes well and writes hard,
She can rely on the income from writing books to support herself and give back to her family. She does not need to worry about being criticized by her husband's family when she gets married.
There are many little sisters in the village, and she has seen the situation of those people before and after they get married.
How many women endured being abused by their mothers-in-law and beaten by their husbands, because they had nowhere to go after leaving their husbands' family, let alone the ability to support themselves. But those women who are good at embroidery and can make money are different. Their husbands' families take care of them
Since she can make money, I don't dare to beat or scold her at will. The same goes for her parents who are rich and powerful.
Now that she can make money, no matter what kind of family she marries into in the future, she will not have to be angry with others. The worst she can do is divorce and support herself.
Zhao Ruxi saw that Xu Xue's fighting spirit was as high as a chicken's blood, so she knew that she had used this trick correctly.
The contract signed with the bookstore is not about earning a few more taels of silver, but whether it has an motivating effect on Xu Xue.
"There's another thing..." Zhao Ruxi told Xu Xue about Zhao Yuanxun and Zhu's finding a school for Xu Chongwen and renting out a house.
"You go back and discuss this matter with your uncle and aunt." Zhao Ruxi said, and took out another post, "On the holiday, my parents invite your family to have dinner. At that time, what uncle and aunt think about the school and the house? You can tell me
Tell my parents directly. My mother said that she’s inviting you to dinner. It’s my grandmother. My parents want to express their gratitude to my uncle and aunt. The other one also wants you to recognize me and come around as real relatives in the future, so just feel free to do it.
.In addition, you can also check out ethnic studies and rental houses."
Xu Xue was excited and a little uneasy when she heard that the Suiping residence could find a private school for her brother. However, it was not something she could decide on, so she only agreed, saying that she would definitely tell her parents when she got back.
After sending Xu Xue to the entrance of the academy and watching her enter the academy, Zhao Ruxi took a carriage to Kang Shilin's house where he went last night.
"Miss, are you here?" Song's mother guessed that Zhao Ruxi was coming soon, so she was waiting in the concierge. When she saw her coming in, she hurriedly greeted her.
"Is my master here?"
"Here we are. Not only are you here, but there are also many people who learned painting yesterday." Mother Song said the names of several people.
Except for Gong Cheng and those who were doing errands in the Yamen, everyone else who had nothing to do came here.
Zhao Ruxi didn't feel surprised when she didn't hear Wu Zong's name.
Although Wu Zong said that he specifically asked for leave from the yamen in order to learn painting. But a place like Dali Temple is not an ordinary yamen. If you ask for leave, you can ask for leave. When there is a case that requires Wu Zong's cooperation, he will do it in the middle of the night.
They all have to go, not to mention regular office hours.
After a few people went in, Zhao Ruxi saw that in the open pavilion where they were painting yesterday, everyone was painting seriously in front of the cone. Except for the occasional sound of sparrows on the branches, the courtyard was very quiet.
She walked over and looked at the paintings everyone had drawn.
"You...are not like that." She said with a smile when she saw the old man's painting in front of her.
Most of the people who come here to learn painting are young people, in their twenties and thirties. He is the only one in his forties like Gong Cheng. Apart from that, there are only Kang Shilin and the old gentleman in front of him.
This old gentleman's name is Zhou Wenbai. Kang Shilin was in a hurry to learn painting yesterday. He didn't introduce the identities of the people at all. He just briefly mentioned their names and urged Zhao Ruxi to demonstrate painting.
Therefore, Zhao Ruxi did not know the identity of Mr. Zhou Wenbai. What impressed her most about him was that his acceptance of three-dimensional painting was worse than others.
Although Kang Shilin is in his sixties, he is almost seventy years old, and he can accept new things just as well as young people. After Zhao Ruxi introduced the three-dimensional image of a cone and gave a demonstration, Kang Shilin was able to draw it in a decent manner immediately.
On the other hand, Mr. Zhou Wenbai was more than ten years younger than Kang Shilin, probably in his fifties. But as soon as he started writing, he still used traditional Chinese painting, and his hand holding the charcoal was also very awkward. Zhao Ruxi was not paying attention, and he would
He changed into holding a writing brush again. He corrected it several times but it didn't work, which gave Zhao Ruruxi a headache.
Kang Shilin did not introduce his identity, but Zhao Ruxi, who was extremely thoughtful, knew that everyone present had an extraordinary background.
The painting industry requires a lot of paper, pens, paints, and other expenses when sketching. Even in modern times, if you want to succeed in painting, it requires extremely high expenses. Generally speaking, working-class families
They were hardly affordable, let alone paper and pens in ancient times where the cost was ridiculously high.
Therefore, even if the people present are not all from aristocratic families, they are definitely from wealthy families. Moreover, these people must have achieved something in the field of painting, so they can catch the eye of Mr. Kang Shilin and be accepted into this painting class by him.
Come.
Therefore, Zhao Ruxi's attitude towards these people was not only kind, but also very respectful. Even though the old gentleman in front of her had a certain attitude of being unchangeable no matter how she taught him, she still corrected him with a good temper.
And in order to take care of the old gentleman's face, even if she saw that he was doing something wrong, she did not go out of her way to point it out. She corrected and guided the old gentleman as often as others, and tried her best to be tactful when reminding him, for fear of this old gentleman.
Being humiliated, I couldn't stand it and walked away.
It would be very painful for her to receive the three thousand taels of silver in her pocket and then return it. Not to mention that she might offend the boss because of it, which is not cost-effective.
She is probably the only person at all times and in all countries who treats a teacher as a grandson. Alas!
As soon as she made a sound, everyone else noticed her arrival. However, seeing that she was giving instructions to Zhou Wenbai, everyone else remained very reserved and silent, even Kang Shilin.
After Zhao Ruxi walked around and gave instructions to everyone, Kang Shilin shouted: "Girl, you draw another picture to show everyone."
