Carrying a Jurassic on me-Chapter 1281 - 630: Yan Fei the Scalper Expert
Chapter 1281: Chapter 630: Yan Fei the Scalper Expert
"Xiao Fei, when the post office delivered the newspaper, there was a parcel for you too, but since you weren’t around, I signed for it," Yan Fei said as the school day ended and everyone from the field was in the yard, just as he was about to ask what was happening, Xiang Rui spoke up. "There’s also a remittance slip for royalties, saying you need to pick it up personally. Did you publish an article? Open it up quickly and let us see what it’s about."
"Come on, come on, we’re all waiting here!" Everyone was urging, all the people who came back for lunch were here waiting!
Yan Fei took the parcel and glanced at the mailing address, then humbly said: "This, oh, it’s just a short article about cattle rearing, some personal experiences, nothing technical, just randomly written, nothing interesting to look at..."
"Look at that, even Boss Yan knows how to be modest now? Hurry up and open it!" Xiang Rui urged. "We’re all still waiting to eat!"
It is just a local magazine from Wancheng City on veterinary and livestock, the kind of magazine that has a surprisingly low circulation.
Usually, only specific organizations such as veterinary and agricultural technology stations subscribe to such magazines, not many other people do, and even those who do might not be subscribing willingly.
But for the people here, this was already quite impressive. When the parcel was opened, unsurprisingly, there were several copies of the magazine, all from the same issue. It appears that the magazine publisher was quite generous; publishing one article got several sample copies.
Yan Fei was barely able to glance at the magazine before it was snatched away along with the parcel.
"Brother Fei is awesome, I found it, look at this!" Heizi was the first to find the article signed by Yan Fei, showing off to the people around him.
The pride he exhibited was as though it was his own article that had been published.
"Come on, give me one to check it out!" Xiaosong bounded over. "It really is Brother Fei’s name, impressive!"
"Move aside, look at you fellows, all jittery as if you were the ones who got published, what are you so proud of!" Xiang Rui unceremoniously pushed them aside. "Give me one to look at..."
Once she got hold of the magazine, her face lit up with a big smile: "Unexpectedly, Xiao Fei’s writing is quite good. Not bad at all..."
"That’s right!" Gao Rui also looked envious. "Heizi, when will you have the skills like the boss?"
"If I had those skills, would you dare talk to me like this!" Heizi was visibly upset. "Just wait, I’m going to learn from Brother Fei and get a few pieces published too, show you that Heizi is not to be underestimated."
"You’re not overlooked, you’re piled up!" Xiaohei chuckled beside him. "I really didn’t expect it, Xiao Fei being the boss, still going to school, taking exams, and could still manage to write this stuff!"
"Being able to get articles published, does that make him an expert from now on?" Lin Yumei also grabbed a magazine, flipping through it as she spoke. "From now on our boss is also a cattle expert, that will give us some standing when mentioned."
Zhang Hui and the two young vets were not so composed, looking at Yan Fei’s ’research paper’, they were overcome with profound regret. Had we known it’d be like this, we should have tried to get a few articles published too, at least to earn some royalties, right?
Then someone who shouldn’t have mentioned a boiling kettle, mentioned it. Old Ou turned to Liu JinXue and asked: "Teacher Liu, did you guide Brother Fei in writing these articles? You should guide us too next time, let us get a few published as well!"
Hearing this, Liu JinXue’s face turned green, and seeing Yan Fei nearby, giving him a smirk of ambiguous intentions, he quickly denied: "This has nothing to do with me, I’m going to eat, you guys take your time!"
He would be crazy not to run, because Yan Fei wouldn’t let him work late in the lab, and he had always been quite upset about it. So whenever Yan Fei was ’writing articles’ in the lab, whenever he spotted him, he would seize the opportunity to mock him with comments like "You haven’t even switched on a single instrument, and you’re writing papers already?" or "People build cars behind closed doors, you’re building literature?"
That was the lighter stuff, there were worse comments like a grudging "If your articles get published, tell me which magazine, and I will eat that issue!"
In any case, he never had anything good to say, and now, seeing Yan Fei managed to actually get his articles into a magazine, how could he not run away!
Sitting in a corner hidden from view, holding his bowl, and watching the excited crowd, he couldn’t help but mutter under his breath: "Does this even count as publishing articles? Hmph, what nonsense did he write!"
No wonder Liu JinXue looked down on Boss Yan’s published piece, and no wonder Zhang Hui and two young vets regretted, just look at the title of the article, you’d know Boss Yan’s modesty wasn’t really modest, the title was: A Few Insights on Fattening Cattle.
Does that count as a research paper?
In Liu JinXue’s view, if I guided such papers... forget it, I really can’t afford to lose that much face!
Yan Fei, holding his bowl, enjoying everyone’s compliments, said to Xiang Rui: "Aunt, the magazine is quite generous, later you contact them, let them make an ad for our beef jerky!"
Xiang Rui looked puzzled: "Such a magazine, not many people read it, right? Would the advertisements even be effective?"
Yan Fei chuckled: "The fewer people read it, the cheaper the advertising costs, we’re casting a wide net. The more ads we place, the more useful it will be."
