"Forget it. I'm sorry."
Lin Ke politely rose to see his guest out. "I really can't accept a split like that. Perhaps I'm too greedy."
He still believed that the value of human creation should outweigh the value of reproduction.
Besides, he wasn't short of money now.
As for changing the ideas and outlook of the Great Wei Sacred Dynasty, that would have to happen one step at a time.
Although Lin Ke also wanted to become fat in a single mouthful, as a muscular man with eight-pack abs, he found that rather difficult.
"Greedy?" The old woman frowned as well. "You should know that they originally intended a ten-ninety split. We were the ones who secured thirty-seventy for you. Don't fail to appreciate a favor."
Fail to appreciate a favor?
Ten-ninety?
Lin Ke couldn't help freezing for a moment at those words.
Were they really that freaking impressive?
Even having witnessed the ugly faces of capitalists, he couldn't help feeling stunned.
"Young Master Lin, thirty percent is already quite a lot. Think about it-we still have to cover paper, labor, and the gifts needed to open one door after another. Of course, you needn't worry about any of that. And even after we grease their palms,
"we might not be able to start doing business outright. You should know that even once your book is printed, it might not go on sale smoothly. Don't be fooled by how quickly it sells here on Chaoyang Street. In Capital City, others don't dare meddle casually, but elsewhere, selling it might not be so easy."
As she spoke, the old woman raised her index finger and pointed upward, smiling. "Besides, even in other parts of Capital City, you might not be able to find a market."
Not find a market?
