When the Patriotic Goddess of War is bound to the love system

Chapter 256: The Disappointed Republic Woman (80)

Tang Ning took a look and saw that these were indeed very generous terms. It seemed that Ji Fan had put a lot of effort into it.

"I think we only need to make some slight changes here, and the royalties will be paid 50-50. After all, newspapers also need to operate and develop."

Her eyes were full of sincerity, "I appreciate Mr. Ji's kindness, but as an author, I always hope that the newspaper will continue to be as good as ever. This is the best way to complement each other and get the best of both worlds. What do you think?"

Ji Fanzhen touched the cigarette with his hand, his throat felt a little itchy, and he didn't say anything for a long time.

He left home and traveled around the country for many years since he was a child, even going overseas alone. Finally, he chose to found New Spring and Autumn in Shanghai without any other purpose.

I just want to be able to retain some glimmer of light and hope when I'm hit by a wall at every turn, and something warm is still surging in my heart.

He has met all kinds of people, and after countless things, his heart has become harder and harder. He often looks at this insensitive and bloody society, and his biggest emotion is just a cigarette, and all he can do is

It's really limited.

This is the first time that someone has pushed money outwards and actively asked for a reduction in royalties.

"I know that Mr. Ji is a man with pursuits. In this era, it is very difficult to be different from others, let alone persist in his own pursuits and make the best efforts for it. I admire Mr. Ji, but my ability is limited.

He only has a pen and a few dollars. If Mr. Ji needs help with something, I hope he can think of me and let me do my part."

Tang Ning would not think that Ji Fanzhen was just a simple editor-in-chief of a newspaper. Except for the mouthpieces of the authorities and those who collaborated with various factions, those who ran newspapers these days were all people with ideals and ambitions.

They all want to burn themselves and play a little role, and Ji Fanzhen is the same.

Xin Chunqiu has become a thorn in the side of the authorities. She doesn't believe that Ji Fan really can't receive other news, but he still persists and all parties are working hard.

What kind of spirit will be behind him?

Tangning doesn't want people to think of her as just a woman. She wants them to know that she is a woman, but she is also a woman with ideals, ambitions and pursuits. In addition, she also has money.

Don't save money for her. If you need it, ask her as soon as possible and she can contribute money and effort!

"Excuse me, I have a cigarette."

Ji Fanzhen still took out his cigarette. After hearing what Tang Ning said, he thought deeply and felt more and more that he should not underestimate this Miss Tang.

He walked into the yard, where he was leeward from the wind, and lit a cigarette.

At this moment, he urgently needed nicotine to soothe his brain. Did Tangning's words...do he mean what he thought?

Is she testing, or does she really want to join in?

"Mr. Ji, why did you come out to smoke?" After visiting the newspaper office, Cheng Zilong was about to go to school as soon as possible. He saw Ji Fanzhen who was talking to his sister inside and came out to smoke, and asked curiously.

Ji Fanzhen finished the puff and explained, "Oh, it's nothing. Smoking is not a good thing. You have to respect ladies."

"Oh~ My sister doesn't like it, right?"

Cheng Zilong raised his voice and winked at Ji Fanzhen, "I understand, Mr. Ji, quitting smoking is uncomfortable. Quit slowly. Ah, I'm leaving first. Could you please tell my sister."

If Ji Fan really wanted to be with his sister, he would definitely have to quit smoking. Now that he is aware of smoking, he still has some winks.

After Cheng Zilong finished speaking, he patted Ji Fanzhen, put his schoolbag on his back and ran away.

Ji Fanzhen was left dumbfounded as he put out his cigarette butt, went into the room, and explained to Tang Ning.

"Zilong has already gone to school."

Tang Ning nodded. It's not too far from Cheng Zilong's school and can be reached within walking distance.

Moreover, Cheng Zilong is very familiar with the road now, so she is not worried.

"As for what you just said... I will think about it carefully, and if necessary, I will definitely speak to Miss Tang."

Ji Fanzhen spoke very slowly, as if he had made a lot of determination.

After all, this is not his matter alone. He personally trusts Tang Ning, but... one move can affect the whole body, and every step must be done cautiously and cautiously. These are all lessons learned through blood.

"Thank you." Tangning could see how cautious he was, and she understood it very well, "Let's agree on the terms of the contract first. When you get it done, I can sign it at any time. There is also the matter of publishing.

Thank you so much for running. I have been led by you all this way until now. I am really glad that I have met a good person."

"It's a good person meeting a good person."

Ji Fanzhen finally had a smile on his face and followed her.

"Okay, I stayed to help because of your kindness, Miss."

Cui'er went to the kitchen and started chopping the meat with quick hands and feet. She didn't show any reluctance at this moment.

Sure enough, Chen Zhuang came after a while, and he shyly greeted Cheng Yufen.

"You are dressed neatly today." Cheng Yufen looked at Chen Zhuang and naturally noticed the changes in him. He was no longer in the tattered clothes and pants he wore when pulling a cart, but now had clean and tidy clothes and his hair was trimmed.

After understanding it, she found that Chen Zhuang's face was not bad at all.

"How dare you come here wearing dirty clothes? What if your house gets dirty?"

Chen Zhuang said with a smile, "Miss is kind-hearted, and we can't be presumptuous just because she is generous. How can this be worthy of Miss's heart? By the way, Miss, where is my Cui'er? This girl made an agreement with her..."

"Oh, you said you would take Cui'er home, I've heard about it."

Cheng Yufen said and sighed secretly, "It's good of you. It's not safe here. You took her away and left me here by myself. Chen Zhuang, I'm sorry I gave you face like this."

"Miss...don't you have a husband..."

Chen Zhuang scratched his head and felt a little at a loss. "Sir, I will protect you. How can it be the turn of rough guys like us?"

He whispered, with regret in his tone.

Cheng Yufen hadn't felt this feeling of being cherished and this man's uneasy tone in front of her for a long time.

No, she had never felt that Zhang Weimin would not cherish her, and she had never met any other good man. It was Chen Zhuang in front of her who made her feel that...

"He left, and I was left alone at home. You don't know how scared I was when Cui'er said that, but what's the use of being scared? I'm unlucky, and no matter how many things I do, I can only

Just suffer it alone."

Cheng Yufen shed tears as she spoke.

Chen Zhuang immediately became anxious, "Miss, what are you talking about? If I had known that no one was guarding Miss, I, I... oh!"

He remembered that his face turned red and sweat broke out on his forehead. Cheng Yufen felt soft in his heart when he saw it.

"I'm just waiting at the door of the house to see who dares to come in and cause trouble!" He finally said, "Just don't say those words anymore, miss. In my opinion, miss is the most beautiful and kind-hearted girl. Chen Zhuang only hopes that miss can be well.

of."

"Pfft."

Cheng Yufen finally couldn't help but laugh. It was quite fun to tease the cart driver.

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. You can stay here. I told Cui'er and asked her to arrange a room for you. How can I let you stand at the door? We all have to protect you!"

In front of her parents, she was the second daughter who humbled herself and tried to please her parents. In front of Tang Ning, she was the younger sister who couldn't be compared with him in everything. In front of Zhang Weimin, she was a woman who was driven by others and wanted to be his elder sister.

Maid, only in front of Chen Zhuang, she is a noble young lady, beautiful and kind-hearted, with all the beautiful qualities in one body.

He looked up to her, and her words could make him extremely nervous. This novel experience of being a superior person made Cheng Yufen suddenly unable to stop.

She has spent her entire life with low self-esteem, constantly trying to please others but never succeeding. She is always a loser or a clown in the eyes of others.

Watching Cui'er explaining things to Chen Zhuang, Cheng Yufen smiled, this was good, there must always be a man at home to protect her.

"According to what you said, Zhang Weimin followed them back to Jinnan?"

Tangning received the news and asked.

"Yes, but why doesn't Cheng Yufen go back? She stays in Shanghai by herself."

Xiaofang was a little puzzled as she talked about the news she had learned.

Tang Ning thought for a while, and she could probably understand this kind of move that could be advanced or retreated. The Cheng family had already invested money, and of course they didn't want Cheng Yufen to waste it in vain.

However, Mr. Zhang was able to think of this trick and completely exclude his son. He is really a master.

After thinking about it, I finally realized that keeping Zhang Weimin would be a huge disaster and would be of no use at all.

"Don't think about it. This is her business and has nothing to do with us. But she is staying in Shanghai and will probably come to us soon."

"Looking for us?" Xiaofang didn't understand.

"The main thing is to find Zilong. She is Zilong's second sister. Now that Mrs. Cheng has gone there, she must have taught her a lot. For example, don't let Zilong be won over by a sister with evil intentions like me.

Sort of like that, so she may come to visit Zilong recently to have a good chat with Zilong and ease the relationship with Zilong."

Tangning looked at the content in the newspaper and explained it casually.

Mrs. Cheng's eyes can see it. If you think about it, you will understand. They will only think of their son. Now that his son is with Tang Ning, he must be restless. He is afraid that he will teach their boys bad things and will not be close to them in the future.

But what to do.

These women...

"But feelings don't just come from her saying a few nice words. Master Zilong almost had an accident before, but she didn't even show her face. Now I know what's the use of hindsight."

Xiaofang felt aggrieved for Tang Ning. It was obviously her daughter who did everything. Isn't it natural for Master Zilong to be close to her?

"Master Zilong, when did you come back?"

Wu Ma's surprised question made Tangning and Xiaofang raise their heads and see Zilong at the door.

He stood there for who knows how long, and he probably heard what the two people said.

"Back?" Tangning asked him with a smile.

"Well." Cheng Zilong didn't mention the topic they just talked about, but instead put down his schoolbag, "I'm going to wash my hands and eat. Sister, you can come over and eat quickly."

Xiaofang quickly got up and went to the kitchen to help Wu's mother. Tangning thought to herself, Zilong has really grown up after experiencing some things. Although he is still young, he has learned to be calm and not anxious when encountering things.

It's good to ask out loud.

When she put down the newspaper and sat down at the dining table, Zilong whispered to her.

"Don't worry, eldest sister, I won't be coaxed away by the second sister with just a few words."

He said, looking at her a little uneasily.

Tangning touched his head and said, "That's your second sister too."

"I know that if she only acts as the second sister, comes to see my younger brother, and talks to me, then I will recognize her as the second sister. But if she wants to use some means against you and deliberately say bad things to me to distort

Facts, then I will ignore her."

"Well, when you grow up, you know these things by yourself, so you can rest assured, eldest sister."

Tangning looked at him with encouragement in her eyes. The young master seemed very happy to be affirmed, and the things that had just happened in his heart were no longer heavy.

"By the way, sister, I met Mr. Ji when I came back, and he said he wanted you to go to the newspaper office. Originally, he wanted to come home, but he had something to do and couldn't leave."

Cheng Zilong thought of this while eating, and originally planned to talk about it when he got home, but overhearing the conversation between the eldest sister and Xiaofang disturbed his mind, and he suddenly forgot about it.

Tangning nodded, "Okay, do you want to go with us later? Don't you want to see what the newspaper office is like?"

"Okay, can I really go?"

Cheng Zilong calculated his time and said, "I'll go to the newspaper office to read it and then go to school immediately. I'll make it in time!"

The two of them set off after dinner. Cheng Zilong also saw the newspaper editorial department with piles of manuscripts and materials as he wished, and his face turned red with excitement.

"Mr. Ji, when can I visit the factory? I heard that the machine for printing newspapers only needs to press a button to start, and then rows of newspapers will be printed!"

"Well, when you guys go on vacation, the factory will be a little far away."

Ji Fanzhen showed the contract to Tangning and answered Cheng Zilong's questions.

"Is this... are you going to publish this book?"

Tang Ning asked, feeling that the dust had settled, and if she didn't bring it up, she would accept offers from other families.

After all, the spread of newspapers is only temporary. If you want long-term spread, you need to publish books.

"I've been so busy lately that I only remembered it after someone else reminded me of it. I'm really sorry. Royalties are easy to negotiate, not just for the book in front of me, but also for the previous books "Zhang Tang's Divorce" and "Chaoyang"

, have they all been published together, what do you think? This is just a draft contract, and we will study all the terms after Miss Tang has read it."

As for the fact that Ji Fanzhen almost fell out with Yan Baiqing because of this contract, he didn't say anything at all.

In Ji Fanzhen's view, the truly good works are those written by Miss Tang, which have a sense of mission. He does not want to make money with this kind of work, but Yan Baiqing, as a partner, must make money, so the two of them are dealing with Tang Ning.

Unable to reach an agreement on royalties, it almost caused a conflict.
