Chapter 168

As the book market of Robinson Crusoe continues to boom, London literature press is ready for the third printing. Now the whole publishing house is very excited, because if we add another 500000 copies to the final three times, it will be 1.5 million copies.

As professionals, they certainly know what it means to sell 1.5 million copies, and in such a short time, it can definitely be written into the history of English literature.

Only then did Annie understand why Kevin didn't want to sign a long-term contract with the publishing house. Because if you sign a long-term contract, Kevin won't have so many conditions to discuss when he publishes his new book.

For example, if he had signed a long-term contract for Robinson Crusoe, he would not have the capital to talk with the publishing house, and would only sign a text copyright contract.

"It turned out that he had anticipated all this, and his self-confidence led him to become an accurate prophet." Ernie sighed in her heart.

During this period of time, padik's "terror without comprehension" and Kevin's "Robinson Crusoe" have also made many bookworms addicted, because they can read another book after reading one. Anyway, they are so wonderful, so wonderful.

Mr. padik is also planning to go to Edinburgh to have a chat with Kevin after his busy activities, because he is very interested in what Kevin said about the isolated island. He wanted to ask Kevin how he thought of such an island, which also filled paddock with longing.

Since watching Robinson Crusoe, as an adventurer, he also hopes to experience such a wonderful and exciting island.

So, after learning Kevin's contact information, padik called Kevin himself. Kevin is reading the manuscript of youth at school. After seeing the strange phone call, he wanted to refuse. But after thinking about it for a while, I finally picked it up.

"Hi, hello. Please call me Kevin. Who's calling?" Kevin didn't want to answer the phone, but as a people in a gentleman's country, he said politely.

"Hello, my name is padik. Yes, you didn't hear me wrong. It's the king of adventure Paddick said humorously on the phone.

"What? Are you Mr. padik? "

Kevin couldn't believe his ears, and then he didn't expect padik to call him.

"Yes, it's nice to talk to you on the phone. Oh, your Robinson Crusoe is wonderful. You are a literary genius. Can we have a little chat about that? " Padik expressed his sincerity.

"Of course, dear Mr. padik, you are my respected writer, brave man. Oh, thank you for your praise. It will make me feel the weather is very good today. " Kevin said excitedly.

"Oh, Kevin, you don't need my praise. The weather is wonderful today. I'll be in Edinburgh this afternoon. I'll see you at noon tomorrow. How about it“ Padik is not a wordy person, so after a few simple chats, he went straight to the topic.

"Dear Mr. padik, do you mean to go through Edinburgh?" Kevin asked curiously.

"Yes, I'm curious about your talent. I think literature needs an imaginative writer like you, so I want to meet you. I want to talk about literature with you. Isthereanyproblem？”

"No, Mr. padik. I'm very happy to be here. Welcome."

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow. Goodbye. "

With that, padik hung up. After hanging up, he packed up and was ready to go to Edinburgh.

As an adventurer, padik's natural character is not to procrastinate and to do what he says. So, when he said he was going to Edinburgh, he immediately collected things and set out.

Because of the time, paddock didn't book a flight to Edinburgh. So this time he was driving to Edinburgh with his assistant.

Padik's assistant was also very positive when he heard that he was going to Edinburgh, which was also his hometown. Since he graduated from University, he has seldom returned to his hometown. So, taking this opportunity, he can go back once. Naturally, I am happy in my heart.

After taking paddock to Edinburgh, paddock also stayed at the assistant's house at will. Then the next morning, he kept in touch with Kevin.

Kevin was ready for the call from padik. So in the morning, he made a reservation in an upscale restaurant.

When padik's call came, they made an appointment to meet. Paddock's assistant seldom goes home once, so he stays at home. Paddock goes to meet Kevin alone.

Kevin is very happy to meet padik. This is because this is the second literary champion in China. He went to Edinburgh to chat with himself. David Lee, a former famous poetry critic, is now paddock, the king of adventure. This is really an enviable treatment.

The restaurant Kevin ordered is called "Bobby's bar", which is the name of a hound. The restaurant is named after it, which is naturally related to its story.

In Edinburgh, there is a popular story about the loyal dog boby. Boby is a kind of long haired short legged hound unique to Scotland. Its English name is skyetrrier, and its Chinese translation is awkward. It is called "skey Terrier". In 1858, Bob's master died. For the next 14 years, he stayed by his master's graveyard until his death.

Later, the owner's descendants opened a restaurant called "Bobby's bar" in memory of the loyal hound.

Bob's bar is a very high-end restaurant in Edinburgh. Many people come here to eat and chat because of this story. This also leads to a very considerable daily passenger flow here.

Kevin didn't order a room when he first called. Later, I turned to Jennie Norfolk for help. After all, in Scotland, no one would not give the Norfolk aristocracy face. And it's a piece of cake.

Out of politeness, Kevin came to bow's bar early to wait. It's really a high-end restaurant in Edinburgh because of its beautiful environment. As soon as Kevin walked in, he felt very comfortable.

Therefore, many people do not understand why the same dish has different prices in different places. Because you only sell vegetables, while others sell vegetables, they also sell environment and stories. When something gives a different meaning, it will be full of value and charm.
