Two days later, Xu Nianhua sent back the remaining signed books, along with the translated manuscript of her second book, to the translation publishing house in Hai City.
Ten days later, when the books arrived at Ningbei’s bookstore, all the employees of the Su Family received a special benefit: free book vouchers, and specific book vouchers at that.
Thinking about these book vouchers, it was actually Su Lie and Su Jinrong who brainstord the thod for several days.
Nianhua’s book translation was good, but distributing a copy to everyone was just wasteful.
This book voucher thod was different; those who needed it would naturally go buy the book.
In the bookstore, the book translated by Xu Nianhua beca a hit. It couldn’t be helped; the people who received the book vouchers included both the old and the young. So of them didn’t read books themselves, but their kids did at ho. Knowing that the book was free, they figured they’d take it ho for their kids to read.
Reading more books never goes wrong.
Even though the book had just been released, there were so many people looking for it.
Su Lie had already arranged with the three largest bookstores in Ningbei that anyone coming in with a book voucher to buy the book would have their cost covered by him.
Everyone who read the book praised it, and word spread quickly. The book she translated soon sold out entirely in Ningbei.
The translation publishing house in Hai City was thrilled when they received a call from the supplier. They imdiately decided to print a second edition while also calling Xu Nianhua to add a prologue. Of course, they offered the most generous price as well.
The price for Xu Nianhua’s second translation manuscript was directly raised to nine yuan per thousand words. Not only that, but she could also earn royalties. For example, if ten thousand copies were sold, Xu Nianhua would receive a generous bonus, and the editor-in-chief urged her to publish the second book as soon as possible.
"Nianhua, many people think it’s just soone with the sa na," Su Xi said, panting while lying on the floor. "It’s the book you translated."
"That’s better, saves from explaining to everyone," Xu Nianhua had no intention of explaining that she was the translator of the book.
"Oh, my mom couldn’t stop praising you," Su Xi sighed and said, "You have no idea how happy she is. She said that letting you be a student is a waste of talent; you should be a teacher."
Xu Nianhua: "..."
She hadn’t even graduated yet.
"Are you translating the third book?" Su Xi turned over to lie on her side, stretching her arms and legs until she felt much more comfortable. These days, she had been learning self-defense with Xu Nianhua. She felt her arms were too weak even to play the piano.
"Yes, it helps grow and earn money," Xu Nianhua planned to continue with her translations. Translating a book was both a form of self-training and transcendence for her.
"How’s your hand doing?" Xu Nianhua looked at Su Xi’s hand. Her hand was naturally suited for playing the piano, but lately, due to training, she found it hard to play.
"It’s okay. A few days ago, it was weak, but yesterday when I went back, I realized that playing seed easier. Could it be that exercising makes playing the piano easier?" Su Xi was puzzled, but she indeed felt physically stronger.
In the past, she needed to rest after playing for so ti, but yesterday, she played for a long ti and didn’t feel tired at all.
"Then we should keep it up and persevere. The benefits of exercising are too nurous," Xu Nianhua encouraged, hoping to keep Su Xi company in her exercise routine.
