Chapter 9 After the Meeting

When Yan Shao typed out the last word, it had been a full seven hours since the press conference was held, and although the long time made many people feel uncomfortable, no one in the venue made a complaining voice.

"Whew, I'm really tired..."

Standing up from the typewriter, Yan Shao moved his muscles.

With just a slight movement, the bones made a series of rattles.

If it was a bit rude to do this kind of behavior in normal times, I am afraid that some people would have already spoken out, but at this moment, the entire venue was silent, and everyone seemed to be watching aliens.

"Now, no one will question you anymore..."With a look of surprise, Tarys walked up to Yan Shao and said softly. By the way, are you really human? ”

It's no wonder he thinks so, after all, Yan Shao's performance just now is too demonic.

However, Yan Shao didn't answer his question, just folded his hands and bowed to the sky.

This worship is not to God or other gods, of course, but to writers who have been born or have not yet been born.

"Anyway, thank you so much..."Yan Shao laughed to himself. Although after knowing the truth, you may not want my thanks..."

has plagiarized so many other people's works, Yan Shao will naturally not be without burden.

However, he had already thought about this kind of thing before the start of the press conference, since he had come to this era, unless he was ready to go to a place where no one was going to live alone, otherwise whatever he did would have an impact on future generations, and the difference was only the size. Since whatever you do will have an impact, why not choose the easiest path for yourself...

"Let's go..."Seeing that no one was questioning him, Yan Shao turned to Elaline and stretched out his right hand as he spoke.

Looking at Yan Shao's outstretched hand, after hesitating for a while, Elaline gently put his hand on it.

"Hmm..."

Holding each other's hands tightly, the two walked off the stage together

Noticing the appearance of the two, Tharis frowned slightly.

But before he could say anything, the two people who walked off the stage were surrounded by a large crowd.

Among these people are both reporters and some local celebrities, and as for those 'originals', they have already slipped away quietly while no one is paying attention to them.

Looking at the two people surrounded by the crowd, Tharis sighed lightly, even if he wanted to say something at this time, he might not be able to squeeze in.

"Forget it, I'd better wait for them outside...", said Taris and turned and walked out of the venue.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

As expected by the people at the venue, what happened in Marseille the next day quickly caused a sensation throughout Europe, and Yan Shao became the most dazzling person in the whole of Marseille.

After creating many epic works in a row, no one dared to question Yan Shao, but there were many more people who came to visit. Among them, there are even a few Qing government officials who came from Paris, Yan Shao is his own knowledge, and he doesn't have to copy things, and it would be a little shameless to really regard the things he copied as his own. On the other hand, although he was very unhappy with the current Manchu government, Yan Shao did not neglect those officials.

In the final analysis, Yan Shao is going back to China after all.

Of course, these are not big troubles, at this time the envoy to France was Sun Baoqiβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” before the Xinhai Revolution, the Manchu government's foreign envoys did not have the title of minister or ambassador, but were called the envoy of the envoy.

Sun Baoqi from 1901 (Guangxu 27 years), successively served in Germany, Sri Bania (that is, now Spain), Portugal, France and other countries of the embassy attachΓ©, in July 1902, promoted to the French minister, on the rank of four or five grades, the reward of the third rank of the secretaryβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” by the way, Sun Baoqi has a total of one wife and four concubines, but has 16 daughters and 8 sons, I don't know what he did when he was young...

Bombarded by the braided drama of later generations, the presence of officials below the third grade is too small for Yan Shao, and Sun Baoqi did not come to Marseille in person, so those officials naturally can't bring any trouble, but this is also a relationship in France, if he returns to China, even if he is a petty official of the seventh grade, I am afraid that it can bring a lot of trouble to Yan Shao.

But these are all things in the future, and for Yan Shao now, it is Taris who can really cause him trouble.

Ever since he saw the pits that Yan Shao had opened, Tharis had been pestering Yan Shao, asking him to find a way to fill in those pits as soon as possible, so Tharis would come to Yan Shao's residence almost every day, which made Yan Shao really annoying, but Yan Shao couldn't offend him, who called him Elinor's uncle...

There was no way, and under the supervision of Elaino, Yan Shao could only work overtime to fill the pit.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Standing behind Yan Shao, Elaline was carefully shaving off the stubble on Yan Shao's face with a straight-handled razor.

Ever since he learned that Gillette had invented the safety razor, Yan Shao has been thinking about whether to ask someone to bring some back from the United States, after all, it is always inconvenient to use a straight handle razor. But after Eleno, who was cautious in the glasses, Yan Shao suddenly felt that it was better to postpone this matter.

But then again, the Gillette razor at this time is still in its infancy, and even if you buy it, it may not be as good as those in later generations, so it is better to choose this dangerous, but there are many benefits...

"That's it!"

After shaving some of the last stubble, Elino, who was relieved, wiped Yan Shao's face with a towel.

"It's finally clean now."

Touching his chin that had been shaved very clean, Yan Shao looked at Elaline in the mirror. "I'm so happy to have such a beautiful person shave for me..."

Knocking Yan Shao's head, Elano smiled lightly. "It's good that you know the way..."

As the time of acquaintance became longer, the relationship between Yan Shao and Ileno became much closer, and it didn't take long for Eleno's assistant to take on more work.

For example, Yan Shao's food, clothing...

For another example, Yan Shao's beard...

Not to mention Yan Shao, a descendant who is accustomed to using electric shavers and safety razors, even people in this era are easy to scratch themselves when using a straight-handled razor. The scars that appear on Yan Shao's face from time to time are basically because of this kind of thing.

Elino, who really couldn't stand it, simply helped Yan Shao shave his beard.

Of course, Elano herself doesn't have much experience, after all, very few women have experience in shaving, even for others. However, the girl's carefulness was revealed at this time, so although she would look a little clumsy at first, she never scratched Yan Shao, which also made the scars that often appear on Yan Shao's face much less.

"Speaking of which, you've been making a lot of money lately..."

After putting the razor and other tools away, Elano asked softly.

"Well, I guess it's a lot..."

Touching his chin again, Yan Shao nodded.

As an epic fantasy work, the sales of "The Lord of the Rings" are already very hot, and coupled with the events of the press conference some time ago, the number of people who buy books has increased tenfold or even twenty times, and this number is still growing. Listening to Tharris, it seems that there are still people who come from Germany and Italy to buy ...

Earlier, the way that Tharis paid Yan Shao was the basic remuneration plus the remuneration for printing, after all, Yan Shao did not have much fame at that time. And this time the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy uses royalties. In addition, not long ago, an American publishing house bought the copyright of the English version from Yan Shao, and agreed to pay the manuscript fee through royalties...

Counting the money earned from "Tarzan of the Apes", Yan Shao's net worth at this time was close to 100,000 francs, almost three or four thousand pounds, even in Marseille, this is a lot of wealth, you must know that a gunboat with a displacement of more than 500 tons in the same period only costs more than 10,000 pounds.

Because of some thoughts, Yan Shao did not hide this situation from Elaine, and Tarys, who was the main source of remuneration, was her uncle, so Yan Shao's income Elaline was quite clear, and she just remembered a word when she asked.

"In that case, why don't you just buy a house nearby? It's not a great environment after all..."

As he spoke, Elano looked around the room.

At the beginning, he was just thinking about finding a place that was relatively close to the university that Elinor attended, so the environment of the house that Yan Shao rented could only be said to be okay. Although it is much cleaner than it was when Eleno cleaned it up, the smaller space still gives people a feeling of oppression.

In Elaline's opinion, it would be more convenient to buy a house here if you want to live for a long timeβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” at least without paying rent.

And if it's her own house, then Elano can also decorate it with heart.

"Buy a house?"

Hearing Elano say this, Yan Shaoleng shook his head for a moment, but then shook his head.

"Forget it...", Yan Shao turned around and looked at Elanon. I had no choice but to write a novel, but now I have a lot of money, and when the time comes, I will probably go back to China, so it won't make sense to buy a house here..."

"Back to China?"

Elaline looked a little surprised.

"yes..."Yan Shao nodded. After all, I am a Chinese, and I always have to return to China..."

As he said, he is now quite wealthy, and if he is famous, he is at least a household name in Europe, and he can return to China as long as the time is right. At that time, he had a choice between starting his own business or supporting the revolutionary party.

"That..."

Hearing Yan Shao's words, Elaline became a little overwhelmed.

However, just when Elano was a little overwhelmed, Yan Shao suddenly looked back at her seriously and said.

"When that time comes, would you like to go back to China with me..."
