Chapter 992 994 [There are flowers that can be folded and straight to be folded]
In the following time, Xiang Nan helped the family sell fish as usual, while doing homework and novels by the way.
By September 1st, before school started, Xiang Nan had finished writing the first part of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", "The Exquisite Ancient City", and sent it to Jingu Legend Magazine.
250,000 words, also brought him 20,000 yuan in income. In 2004, the monthly salary of ordinary people was only about 1,000 yuan, so 20,000 yuan was considered a lot of money.
According to Xiang Nan's estimation, it will be enough for him for two years.
After "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern: The Exquisite Ancient City" was finished, Jingu Legend magazine called again, asking if there would be a sequel to the story of "Ghost Blowing Out the Lantern".
Because this novel received a lot of praise when it was serialized in the magazine. Many readers have sent letters, phone calls, and emails, praising this novel for its novel themes, bizarre stories, and vivid characters, and they all hope that there will be more serializations in each issue.
Seeing that this novel has received such a good response, the magazine naturally hopes that Xiang Nan can continue to write it. After all, the stories of Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang are not over yet, and Captain Mo Jin still has many stories to write.
…
"Editor Feng, the story of "Ghost Blowing Out the Lamp", I originally only thought of this one." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "I am not a professional writer, writing is just my hobby.
You know, writing novels does not make money now, I just use it as a play. I still have my own work to do, so I won't continue to write. "
"Mr. Chu, don't think that way. I think you are very creative. It would be a pity if you were left in such a wasteland.
How about this, I will increase your remuneration to one hundred and twenty yuan per thousand words. When Feng Yunlong heard this, he immediately persuaded, "Do you think it is suitable?" "
"If it's one hundred and five thousand characters, I think it's okay to try." Xiang Nan hesitated and said.
"One hundred and five thousand characters?!" Feng Yunlong couldn't help being surprised. Xiang Nan's appetite is really big enough.
In 2004, one hundred and five thousand characters, that must be the treatment of a well-known writer.
However, having said that, Xiang Nan wrote the novel "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" really well. Even he has read so many novels, and now he is fascinated by it. It's been a long time since I've read such a wonderful, ups and downs popular novel.
Therefore, one hundred and five thousand characters is not outrageous.
"Okay, I'll fight for you." Feng Yunlong nodded.
After discussions with Jingu Legend Magazine, Xiang Nan's request of a thousand words and one hundred and five words was agreed. But he is also required to ensure the quality, otherwise, the magazine has the right to delete the article and deduct the manuscript fee.
In this regard, Xiang Nan agreed.
…
In addition to selling fish, doing homework, and writing novels, Xiang Nan and Ling Xiangqian date in the library every weekend, have dinner, and watch movies.
Although the holiday was only one month, the relationship between the two quickly warmed up and advanced by leaps and bounds.
Xiang Nan is not like Chu Tiankuo.
He is too preoccupied, too inferior, and always worried that love will affect his grades and future, so when faced with Ling Xiangqian's affection, he is always timid, not open enough, and not active enough.
So although they have been in love for nearly a year, let alone hugs and kisses, they have never even held hands.
This is very similar to Chen Xiaozheng, also because of low self-esteem, so he has been in love with Zheng Wei for three years, but he never dared to push him down, instead it made Lin Jing easier.
In comparison, Xiang Nan doesn't have such a big psychological burden.
He has always been adhering to the concept of [flowers can be broken straight and must be broken, don't wait for flowers without flowers to break branches]. My girlfriend, if I can't get it myself, I still keep it for others?
…
On September 1st, the school officially opened.
On the first day of school, the school organizes an exam, saying it is to test the students' learning achievements during the holiday.
Hearing this, many students wailed.
They were busy playing games, sleeping late, and traveling during the summer vacation... they didn't review their homework much. Taking exams as soon as school starts will kill them.
Just take the exam, he doesn't care at all.
The first subject is mathematics.
The math papers are very easy to answer. Xiang Nan has completed all the questions in less than half an hour, and has checked it several times to make sure nothing is wrong.
In comparison, most of the other students frowned after seeing this paper.
"Is there any mistake? The exam is on the first day of school. Just take the exam, the difficulty is so high, it is simply inhuman!"
"How should I answer the last question? I'm confused. Have we learned that knowledge before? Why can't I remember?"
"On the first day of school, the school gave us a warning. It's really well-intentioned! I'm afraid we won't be able to stop studying."
The students discussed with bitter faces, feeling that they did not do well in the exam.
"Tiankuo, how did you solve the last big question? Do you think my answer is right?" Yu Sisi asked Xiang Nan for advice.
"Hey, don't think about it now. I suggest you take one test and lose one." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said with a smile, "Instead of being obsessed with the last paper, it's better to think about the next paper."
"Well, what you said makes sense." Yu Sisi nodded.
…
At noon, Xiang Nan went to the cafeteria to eat with his classmates.
When the students saw him, they couldn't help paying attention.
Especially the freshmen in high school wearing military training uniforms, when they saw Xiang Nan, their eyes were worth it.
"Wow, that senior is so handsome~"
"He, Chu Tiankuo, a sophomore in high school, ranked first in the city in the senior high school entrance examination, and got full marks in seven subjects in the final exam last semester, a real top student!"
"Wow, what a high school student, he looks so handsome."
"He is the benchmark of beauty in the school. There are only two types of boys in our school. One is not as handsome as him, and the other is god!"
Xiang Nan has long been used to this kind of gaze, queuing up, shopping for vegetables, and looking for seats without any disturbance.
"Tiankuo here~", "Tiankuo, here~"
Chu Tiankuo is amiable, friendly, and well-rounded, so he is very popular in school and very popular.
Xiang Nan immediately found a seat and sat down to have lunch with everyone.
During the period, he noticed that Ling Xiangqian was planning to come over to eat with him after buying food again. But seeing that there were people sitting around him, and they were all boys, she quickly shrank back.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan smiled slightly.
"Tian Kuo, have you heard that Lin Yang has also transferred to study literature." Zhou Zhou said with a smile.
"Really, he hid it deep enough. I met him a few times during the summer, but he didn't tell me a single time." Xiang Nan smiled and said.
He knew that Lin Yang switched to studying literature for Yu Zhouzhou.
For this reason, he did not hesitate to sneak into Director Pan's office in the middle of the night and tamper with the list of subjects in arts and sciences. Later, the matter was found out, and he was punished for it, almost being expelled from school.
"I don't know what kind of flair this kid is, what kind of literature can he learn?" Weekend complained.
"Don't guess if you don't know." Xiang Nan smiled, "Everyone has their own choice, as long as you don't regret it."
"That makes sense." Zhou Zhou nodded, "It seems that Geng Geng, Jian Jian, and Jiang Niannian in Class Five originally said they would transfer the text. But when the new semester started, they returned to Class Five."
Xiang Nan nodded, knowing that Geng Geng was for Yu Huai, Simple was for Han Xu, and Jiang Niannian was for Zhang Ping.
In other words, Director Pan once said [Zhenhua has no puppy love]. In fact, Zhenhua has a lot of puppy love.
After all, it is the age when hormones are bursting, and you can't control it if you want to.
