Chapter 5 Work, Lord Ye Su

After writing the first chapter of Haruhi Suzumiya, Ye Su suddenly realized that it was not as easy as he imagined to make money to support his family by publishing novels.

Not to mention whether the novel can be published, it can be published. How much time does it take to revise manuscripts, rectify, typeface, illustration, application for a book number, printing, and publicity?

I heard in my previous life that there are two ways to pay for publishing novels, one is royalties and the other is buyout.

The former is published in simplified Chinese and collects royalties, which means commissions, ranging from 6% to 15%.

Royalties are the amount of money you can get by selling the books, but there is a guarantee, that is, the first print, usually 10,000 copies, and the minimum is 6,000 copies.

The latter is published in traditional Chinese, and it collects a buyout. If you directly buy out all the benefits after the author's publication, you will pay a thousand words of 50 yuan to 1,000 yuan.

Ye Su was not very clear about the publication of Japanese light novels and the time it took to take, but most of them were royalty-free.

So how many copies of the first print are the first money Ye Su can get.

Ye Su does not have an accurate concept from writing to submitting the article, reviewing it, and being qualified to publish it, but it will definitely not be done soon. Whether it can be done before school starts is a question.

So the question is, where do you get the living expenses during this period?

In the end, there is only one way.

work to earn a living.

Japanese zero-hour workers can still make money, and even students can work.

There are two types of salary for working, one is hourly salary, which is calculated in hours. The longer the time, the more money it is.

The second type is one-time paid work. Compared with this, the former is more common.

When Tujianbu heard that Ye Su was going to work, he showed a surprised expression: "Is Brother Ye Su going to work?"

"Yes. If this continues, the living expenses will not be enough, so working is a must." Ye Su said.

"I still have some money." Tujianma took out his wallet, which contained five 10,000 yen bills. He took them out generously and said, "Brother, let's spend it!"

Ye Su shook his head: "You can buy this money yourself. It's not pretentious. Even if you use your money, there will always be a time to spend it. Before that, it is still necessary to work. It is important to have a stable source of life. After my novel is published, you can get rid of the current situation of working."

"In this way, I am indeed worthy of being my brother." Tumama was very impressed by the previous words. The poster of the novel suddenly left her speechless. After hesitating, she asked, "What kind of work are you going to do?"

"Do I have any specialties? I can only go to convenience stores, snack shops, or KFC, or McDonald's to work." Ye Su said with a smile.

"Oh? My brother has specialties. He didn't play guitar and songs well before?" said Toumama.

"This is also considered? Do you have any suggestions?" Ye Su asked.

"Yeah..." Tumama thought for a while and said, "Can brother be a guitar teacher? Or a guitar player, or... a professional tuner?"

"What you said always feels a bit unreliable." Ye Su said.

"That's right..." Tomama smiled and asked again: "Do you have any specialties in your brother?"

"The specialties, to be precise, are not without them. However, most of them are still difficult to find specialties, such as piano, painting, rap, etc...." Ye Su said a lot in one breath.

Tujian was a little surprised. She really didn't expect that her brother would have so many things. Then she thought about it, she couldn't have such things when she was born like her brother, and she was relieved. But as her brother said, these skills are difficult to find a job.

"No matter what, we'll know when we go out and look for it." Ye Su had a clear idea and was not too anxious. He said with a smile.

For Ye Su, if he can't find an interesting and suitable job, then he can do a boring job like a salesperson.

Work is a boring thing. It is ridiculous to have too many delusions and desires.

The two came to the street together and began to look for a job.

The journey to find a job is not smooth, there is no accurate goal, no one introduces it, and it is undoubtedly like finding a needle in the seabed.

However, Tujianbu seems to have a lucky bonus. About half an hour later, she pointed to a coffee shop on the side of the road and said, "Brother, I'm recruiting people who are good at guitar to do part-time jobs."

"It's really?" Ye Su was stunned for a moment, looked over, and immediately saw the guitar performance recruitment announcement not far away.

This is a coffee shop called ‘Blue Boiling Point’. Compared to the coffee shop, such a name seems to be more suitable for bars…

Ye Su said, "Then let's go over and take a look."

The decoration of a coffee shop is no different from that of a regular coffee shop, it is just a little bigger.

Soon a waiter came to greet the two and said, "Are you two? Please come here."

"No, I'm here to apply for the job." Ye Su waved his hand and said.

The waiter was stunned for a moment and said, "We don't have a waiter to apply for a job..."

"No, it's a guitarist." Ye Su said.

"Guitarist?" The waiter was stunned for a moment and looked at Ye Su with suspicion: "You?"

"Ye Su nodded.

"Sorry, the guitarists we recruit may be very harsh about the level of guitarists. You may not be suitable." The waiter said.

"Brother Ye Su is very powerful." Tujian buried beside him and spoke.

"But I can't decide this, so... you can talk to the manager." The waiter said.

The waiter at the blue boiling point is a mature woman in OL outfit. She looks so beautiful, with a beautiful mole on the corner of her mouth, which looks a bit charming.

"Hello, I am the manager and store manager of Blue Boiling Point, Yuriko Ueshima. Are you here to apply for a guitarist?" Yuriko Ueshima asked with a smile. Although she was very polite, she sat on the sofa and didn't even stand up.

"Yes." Ye Su didn't care, and nodded and said.
