Chapter 329： I disagree

After getting the letter from the guard, Ye Xiuqing couldn't help laughing.

A classmate who came with Ye Xiuqing laughed as he saw the expression on her face.

"It looks like this is done, right? We can get the manuscript fee, right?"

The condition of this girl's family is pretty good, and she doesn't expect to live on the money for the manuscript fee. It's just that this is the first time she makes money by her own ability. To her, the meaning is completely different, so she naturally looks forward to it very much.

Ye Xiuqing nodded when she heard her.

"The envelope is quite thin. If it is a rejection, it wouldn't be enough to mail it back to us with such a thin envelope. It looks like it's done."

Ye Xiuqing opened the envelope as she spoke. As expected, there was a letter and a money order inside.

Ye Xiuqing took out this remittance slip.

"Look, this is our contribution fee."

This girl excitedly accepted the money order that Ye Xiuqing handed over. After looking at the numbers on it, she couldn't help but laugh.

"Is there so many? This is too much. The text we translated is so valuable. Oh my God, after we become proficient in translating in the future. I translate some more content every month. Wouldn't it be more than what my parents earn every month?"

Because of the excitement, the girl couldn't control her crackling and said something. After she finished speaking, she looked at Ye Xiuqing, who had been standing by her side and looked at her with a smile, and she felt a little embarrassed. To Ye Xiuqing, he explained in a low voice.

"This is the first time I have made money, and I can make so much. I'm kind of excited."

Ye Xiuqing nodded very understandingly.

"This is normal. When I made money for the first time, I was more excited than you. At this time, the post office has not yet finished get off work. Let's go back to the classroom to find some male classmates from the English club and go with us. The money is taken out.

Let people go and notify the other students in the club. Tonight, we will divide the contribution fee. "

Hearing Ye Xiuqing's request for contribution fees, the girl became even more interested.

It was also Ye Xiuqing's luck that this year the National Publishing Administration decided to revise the remuneration of books. It just started on July 1. The manuscript is 6 to 20 yuan per thousand words, and the translation is 4 to 14 yuan per thousand words.

Although it sounds not too much, at this time, pork is less than one yuan per catty, and rice is two cents more than one catty. Many household items, such as toothpaste, are only a few cents. There are even some commodities that are calculated by points.

This remuneration is pretty good no matter which city it is placed in.

Originally, at this level of translation, they could get a remuneration of six yuan per thousand characters.

But because they belong to newcomers. In addition, at the beginning, Ye Xiuqing took the initiative to reduce the manuscript fee in order to be able to cooperate with the publishing house.

So according to the agreement, they can only get five yuan per thousand words.

However, the manuscript that Ye Xiuqing submitted this time really gave Editor-in-Chief Zhang a big surprise. Therefore, he took the initiative to offer them 50 cents, that is to say, gave them five cents for every thousand words.

Because Editor-in-Chief Zhang didn't trust them at the beginning, he tried short stories for them. The five novels are added together, and the total is less than 70,000 words. The cost of the manuscript is 337 yuan.

In this era, the wages of ordinary workers were only forty to fifty yuan. The students in their English clubs could earn more than 300 in just one week, which is already a fortune.

Sure enough, after Ye Xiuqing went back. The male classmates in the class were happy when they knew that they had made so much money.

Several male classmates with lively personality could not help but shout loudly. Attracted the attention of other classmates in their major.

Feeling the gaze of other classmates, these students who spoke out immediately closed their mouths. After they left, they looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.

"Walk around, let's go and take out the money quickly, so that the big guys will be happy for a while."

At this time, the largest denomination of coins in circulation was ten yuan. This is because we have to distribute these manuscript fees to every student in the club who participates in the translation work.

Therefore, among the money Ye Xiuqing took out this time, the largest denomination was only five yuan. There are small sums of money together, and the area is not small.

In addition, at this time, the sky is already a bit dark. If it weren't for two male classmates to accompany her, Ye Xiuqing alone would really dare not bring so much money and wander back and forth on the road.

When the three of them returned to the classroom where the English club usually held activities, the others in the club had already arrived.

The big guy sat there and looked at the three people who walked in through the door with special eager eyes.

Especially when they saw the package in Ye Xiuqing's arms, their emotions became even more unbearable.

Ye Xiuqing didn't sell the seal either, she stood directly in front of the podium and put the package in her hand on the table.

"The big guy listened to me. Two days ago, we handed over the translated manuscript to the publishing house. Today, we received a reply from the publishing house and our manuscript fee, which is a total of 337 yuan and 6 cents."

Before Ye Xiuqing came back, these students in the room had already heard about the specific amount of the contribution fee.

However, this does not prevent them from feeling a little excited after hearing this number again.

This is more than 300 though not all of them. However, as long as they think of having their own share here, they are very happy.

"There are a total of 43 classmates in our English club. Excluding myself and one classmate who did not participate in this translation work because of the competition, there are 41 classmates left."

Hearing what Ye Xiuqing said, she hadn't waited for her to continue. Many of the students sitting underneath have quit.

"Student Ye Xiuqing, you are wrong to say that, why should you be ruled out?"

"You are also a member of our English club. If it weren't for you, we would have no way of receiving translation jobs. Later, you were always by our side, and we would solve any problems with us.

After we have finished translating the novel, you will also perform the final verification. It can be said that you have put in no less effort than ours, and we do not agree to exclude you. "

"Yes! Is anyone saying something behind your back? You don't need to worry about what other people say, we all see your efforts, and I don't agree to exclude you."
