"Really? You're willing to take it on? You, I..." Tao An was so excited she couldn't complete her sentence.
Xu Nianhua offered some tea, saying, "Take your time."
Tao An drank a little hot tea, feeling warm inside, and finally able to speak properly, she said, "Nianhua, don't worry, the editor said that as long as you translate this book, you'll earn at least this amount."
Tao An held up four fingers and said, "Four yuan for every thousand words on average."
Xu Nianhua quietly calculated; although the book wasn't thick, the translation would amount to over three hundred thousand words. At four yuan per thousand words, the translation could earn more than a thousand yuan!
That's quite a lot.
Xu Nianhua was surprised herself. Previously, she mostly translated contracts, earning a few dozen yuan, at best a little over a hundred yuan. If it was for instruction manuals, the amount was even less.
