How to buy the novel

tip: use the app to buy the novels at a lower price as the app charges at SUPER VIP rate (save more, buy more)
*BASIC / VIP / SUPER VIP USER: 5 points / 4 points / 3 points
per thousand words respectively
*one completed novel usually cost 1100-1500 jj points on the app

1. searching for the novel:

webpage

for desktop website, you can simply google “(title of novel) jjwxc” and find it directly (will be easier and clearer)

app

2. buying the vip chapters:

*will be cheaper on app unless you have the SUPER VIP card to use/is already a SUPER VIP user

method 1: click the list → click any of the vip chapter

method 2: click the download button (able to read offline in the app)

*the bottom part in the third pic won’t appear if you uncheck the download box
*the red part is different for different novels depending on the author’s setting
*automatically purchase only works for ongoing novels→jj points will be deducted whenever a vip chapter is updated so you don’t need to buy them manually

making sure the chapters are downloaded:

in the case that some chapters just won’t be downloaded via mass download (select all), do not click “download in the background”. just wait till this appears:

How to comment/rate (please do not abuse this function, use it to send love to your favourite authors~)

do comment only under vip novels after you have at least purchased a vip chapter as people can check to see whether you purchased the novel(；・∀・)
and feel free to get me to help you translate/check your comment (just leave a comment below (and with a way to contact you if you prefer it to be more private!))

*you can only rate a novel on the app and given that you purchased the whole novel (you won’t be able to rate for novels with locked chapters as they don’t count that as a full purchase)

web page

app

(nutrients bottles can be given to novel when commenting too)

this rating function is just to make the novel look more appealing to potential readers (no further impact)

How to give away nutrients bottles

What it’s for:
– Increase chances of (mostly) ongoing novels getting on the Most Supported by Readers Chart
– Makes the novel more attractive to potential readers
*expires on the 1^st of the third month after you receive the bottles (so pick the novel you like to give away the bottles! can be your fav author’s ongoing novel even if you haven’t read it as that will be more useful!)

How to get the nutrients bottles:
1. Purchase vip chapters from a novel (without skipping any chapters (so novels with locked chapters are affected)). For every 300000 words purchased, you get 10 bottles.
2. If the novel purchased has less than 300000 words, you get 1 bottle per 30000 words.
