attack stream of life
Chapter 55
Uncle didn't give a particularly good suggestion, but Qing Chuan himself said that he wanted to set up a food stall.His mother was very embarrassed, life is not easy these days, there are so many gangsters on the street, without background influence, this food stall is really difficult to set up.It's a trivial matter for people to eat and get for nothing, and I'm afraid there will be blackmail and robbery.Even if there is no extortion and robbery, there are still messengers who come to collect protection fees openly.
Here, they are notoriously careless.
The top management are all British, they don't care about the life and death of the Chinese, they want 'Hong Kong people to rule Hong Kong', so they assign various gangs of black forces to oppress the Chinese and exploit them layer by layer.There are also large consortiums monopolizing people's livelihood, causing prices to only rise but not fall, and it is difficult for dual-earner families to support their families.
The social class does not flow, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, and there is no anti-monopoly law, and the people at the bottom can see no hope in their children, and there is no room for advancement.The soles of other people's feet are your own ceiling, so it's more than just heartache?It's just that he is small and weak, and has no voice when speaking, so he has to mix like this.
"It's not that I don't allow it. In the food business, the craftsmanship must be special before someone buys it. You can count on one hand the food you cook at home, which means you can eat it. If you want to do this business, you have to prove your ability .” Qingchuan’s mother used this to dispel his idea.
"I can buy some materials and make it once. Two of the three people in my family agree, so let me try it. I don't go to far places, nor go to the streets in the downtown area. I go to the school gate earlier to set up a stall. Just in the morning. People only come out to hang out in the afternoon when they hang out on the street, and I am at the school gate, so if it really doesn’t work, let them have a free meal.”
When he said this, his mother couldn't refuse, and if the boy wanted to go out, the family couldn't grind his will too hard.
Qing Chuan went to buy the ingredients, some flour, pork and leeks, and he used a frying pan at home to fry a pot of dumplings. The dumpling bottom was crispy, the dumpling skin was tough and chewy, and the filling was tender. The combination was just right. One wants to eat a pot.
The two younger brothers and sisters ate without raising their heads, and proved their elder brother's craftsmanship with practical actions. Even the neighbors next door came to smell it.
"Sister-in-law of the Gu family, I think Ah Sheng is doing well in this business." The grandmother next door spoke the local dialect with a strong local accent, full of praise.
The prices are high, the food is expensive, and the neighbors in the neighborhood don’t eat too much. Everyone eats one. There are three sauces on it, vinegar, tomato sauce, sweet and sour sauce mixed with vinegar, and hot sauce. Everyone has their own preferences, but no one said. Unappetizing.
Qing Chuan looked up at her, she knew that the child had made up her mind, so she nodded.
She gave Qingchuan 500 yuan, which was the capital.She only spent more than 100 yuan for sweeping the land for a month, and it was almost 70 yuan plus various tips.It’s the early 500s, and you can eat a meal for a few cents, not less than [-] yuan.The family relies on this little income to make ends meet. If it weren't for the house they bought, they wouldn't be able to pay the rent alone, let alone raise their children.Therefore, I don't have any savings, and sometimes I have to be cheeky to ask my elder brother for help, but my sister-in-law looks down upon me.
Qingchuan went to the flea market to find a second-hand snack cart, it was well repaired, and it was barely usable.I also bought a large iron pan and other odds and ends, and have since started the breakfast cart business.
The place where he set up his stall is across the river at Wenbo Primary School, where most of the students come from well-to-do families.The rich and powerful families usually don’t eat street stalls, and don’t eat those who don’t have money, so they have to choose a school attended by upper-class families, and the children have some change in their hands.Like the original body, because of poverty, he went to a missionary school nearby, so he hardly ate at street stalls, and had no money in his pocket.
In fact, middle school children are even richer, but considering that the original owner's small body cannot withstand the torture, he still chose elementary school.
No matter how good the school is, there are school bullies, and there is no anti-criminal activities here. There are gangs everywhere, and many middle school students get mixed up in the society. Qingchuan is not afraid of fighting. up.In addition, there is a system of repeating grades in schools nowadays, and many gangsters are still in middle school as adults. They say they are students, but they are almost social people.
There is nothing he can do about middle school students, but when facing elementary school students, he still has some height and age advantages.
There are no fixed types of stalls in Qingchuan, except for white porridge, which is fixed, and everything else is exchanged.Fried dumplings today, stir-fried rice cakes with fried noodles on iron plates tomorrow, and fried glutinous rice the day after tomorrow.But the taste is very good, but within half a month, the students of Wenbo Primary School have won the appetite, and even the teachers here have to buy two for breakfast.
His asking price is not high, usually one piece is enough to feed adults, and children are more economical.Because the stalls are opened early, the stalls are usually closed before nine o'clock, and troubles are rarely encountered.But because he has already set up a stall there, he still has to pay the protection fee, and there is a fixed amount of the fee. Qingchuan only thinks that he has paid the land rent, so he can only forget it.
Qingchuan set up a stall in the morning, and went to buy materials for the next day at noon, and usually had nothing to do in the afternoon.I don't go out to play with other peers, and write manuscripts at home with a pen.His mother worked as a cleaner in an entertainment club and had no other requirements for the eldest son, as long as he didn't make trouble, so he wrote and sent it to the newspaper.Anyway, the postage is not too much.
In fact, she didn't have the slightest expectation in her heart, and she hadn't heard that her eldest son was particularly good at writing, but she still encouraged her son very much.
Sometimes the neighborhood jokes about Qingchuan, a dropout kid who didn't pass the high school entrance exam, and learned how to write manuscripts, she scolded them back.Don't look at her being very gentle in front of the children, her voice is soft, and she is full of air when she scolds people. She doesn't take a breath for 15 minutes without repeating a word of abuse, which is the essence of a street shrew.
That's right, she is not a weak person if she can keep her family at a young age.
Qingchuan used to write a lot of detectives, but now he changed it, he wrote horror.
He has carefully studied the setting of the original plot, and the ghosts in this world are imaginary monsters, pure spiritual energy bodies.Generally, it is all kinds of stories about gods and ghosts in ancient times, as well as urban strange tales, which did not exist before, and spread widely. With the blessing of human thoughts, it appeared, and when the people who spread the belief disappeared, it disappeared again.
So for so many days, even if he deliberately went to the home of someone who had just died, he didn't see many souls. Even if there were occasionally, they were very weak and disappeared soon.
The system said that this kind of wandering ghosts belonged to a category of 'wandering spirits', no matter how many there were, it was only one type.
On the contrary, many other species have been found in schools with various campus legends, but they can also be summarized as 'toilet ghost' and 'sleeping ghost'.Because these ghosts do not have very specific settings, the background introduction is very general, and their behaviors are similar, so they are classified into one category.
Just like the 'ghost' he caught, all female ghosts who suck human blood belong to this category.
The worse thing is coming, this kind of ghost can't be killed.
The erotic ghost he trapped with chicken blood ropes, sun exposure, roasting, frying, electricity, splashing black dog blood, sprinkled salt...all worked, but they couldn't die. recover.
Afterwards, he investigated and visited, and it turned out that there was indeed such a legend of a erotic ghost in the local area.According to the legend, the ghost has a name and a surname, and there are records of how many people have been sucked dry. Many people really believe it, not just reading it as a story.These people sent their ideas continuously, so that she could not die no matter what.
If the legend is deciphered, and everyone knows it is false, maybe she will not exist.Unless the person who designed and produced this rumor is still alive.
In the plot, the protagonist creates a monster with his own hands because of spreading rumors of campus horror.This monster instinctively pursues the person who created it. The protagonist spends his time dispelling the rumors that the ghost is going to disappear, but it is still fine.
The protagonist and others analyzed that because the protagonist, the person who created it, still exists, it will not die.Several of the protagonist's friends died, and there were still a bunch of innocent students involved in the school. Everyone sealed it with the method of sealing it in rumors after a narrow escape.
Of course, Qing Chuan didn't want her to die, after all, dispelling such rumors is a thankless task.What's more, he still has a task hanging on him, one hundred high-definition photos.
"Too weak." Qing Chuan dislikes Yan Gui very much, because it is a traditional setting, there are a lot of things to restrain Yan Gui, such as chicken blood, black dog blood, ink fountain line, salt...etc. High is also useless.So he took a clear and unobstructed full-body photo of Yan Gui and let her go.
Yangui didn't dare to take revenge at all, so she slipped away.
What a ghost, he ran out in the middle of the night to find this area. It was already a huge place, and there were only a dozen or so non-human creatures found scattered here and there, and many of them were still on the verge of dissipating.
There are so few types of ghosts, how long will it take to collect a hundred?Could it be that he went to Dongpu to collect some exotic ghosts?Otherwise, wait for more than 20 years to come back, okay, the mainland is vigorously breaking down superstitions.
After much deliberation, if I write some urban ghost stories myself, maybe someone will believe it?Even if there can't be more, the ones that are about to dissipate must be stabilized.
If it doesn't work, I have to wait for the ghost gate to open in the middle of July, and I don't know if the group photo is in compliance with the rules.
Qingchuan's literary talent is still there.No matter how stupid a person is, he will become better after studying for a long time, not to mention that he has studied several worlds seriously.His first article was included, and it was divided into ten issues and published in the supplement, each issue was about [-] words long.
Because he is a newcomer, the manuscript fee given is not high, only eighteen thousand words.Nowadays, a bowl of wanton noodles costs a few yuan, which is really not that high.There is a wonton equation here. The normal fixed author’s manuscript fee should be [-] words equal to [-] bowls of wonton noodles. A well-known author counts money in terms of words. A word is a few cents, and a thousand words is several hundred.
But writers have no power. They cannot argue with publishers over manuscript fees. Offending one family means offending the entire circle.
The title of the first part is 'The Invisible Man', starting with serial murders, leading to a very strange creature, an invisible man.
Sometimes you feel that someone is watching you, watching you, on the road, at work, at school, at home, or even in your sleep.But anyway, you can't see it.Sometimes cameras and cameras can spot it, like an underexposed shadow.
This kind of monster was born in the dark. Its setting is that it cannot be seen by humans, but it is extremely eager to be discovered, so it will follow those who are popular and concerned. It gives them three chances to find out its existence.
Sometimes it is a guest at your party that you don't know, who has no impression, but knows everything about you like a good friend.
Sometimes it is a neighbor who passed you by, and you feel familiar, but you can't name it.
Sometimes you see it at school and you're not sure if it's your classmate, even though it's wearing a school uniform.
If after three times it is not recognized, it will twist your throat when you are alone.
The invisible man is not afraid of what most traditional ghosts are afraid of. Mahogany swords, crosses, lights, animal blood, etc. are useless to it.The only thing that can trap it is the blockade formed by the white salt.But once you look at it, because of the setting of 'unable to be seen', even if it is surrounded, you will escape in the next second.
Qing Chuan couldn't help but think of illegitimate meals, those stalkers, voyeurs...
This is a series, The Invisible Man is the first article, about 3 words, and the accompanying letter costs a little less than [-], which is almost three months’ salary of his mother plus tips, or his two and a half months’ breakfast stall income.
From this point of view, authors who write manuscripts can indeed be counted as middle-income people, decent, and don’t have to be entangled by gangsters, and they won’t be forced to take away protection fees.Whether setting up a stall or sweeping the floor, they are low-level occupations, because the income is low and the risk is high.
This matter was soon known, there are no secrets here, the sound insulation effect of the wall is not very good, and the family members always have a feeling of pride, and then blow it outside as a talking point.So almost the next day, the whole building knew about it.
In their view, selling words is a pretty good job. Many writers can only barely support their families by selling words, and it is difficult to live decently without other income.But for the people in this building, just being able to make ends meet is already pretty good.
They borrowed the newspaper, read the first issue with relish, and couldn't help but follow the development of the plot after he asked.The editor of the newspaper office is very bad at breaking the manuscript at the key point, and knows the essence of leaving suspense.
Of course Qingchuan would not say that chasing after him is also a kind of fun.
The story was unexpectedly popular, and many people, especially those beautiful women, felt that there was really such a creature stalking her and spying on her.The newspaper office sent him a bunch of letters from readers, most of which stated that they were troubled by this.
Even the neighbor next door, a 50-[-]-year-old woman whose arms are thicker than Qingchuan's thighs, came to tell Qingchuan that she was being followed by invisible people.She sincerely believes that there are invisible people chasing her.She asked Qingchuan for help, although the story has already given a solution, which is to call out the name of the person who broke its disguise.
"It will only find people who are popular and popular." Qing Chuan said seriously.
"I know, isn't that me? Who doesn't know me in this building?" The aunt's voice trembled, she was really scared.
Qingchuan: ...
What gave you this illusion?
Because of the fire of the first article, Qingchuan felt that he had the capital to bargain, so he went to the newspaper office in person, holding his handwritten manuscript in his hand.He didn't know the depth of this industry, so he had to hire a professional. He spent a lot of money. At the price of 80 yuan an hour, he hired a lawyer with considerable experience in this field.
The editor in charge of the newspaper was also very surprised to see him, Qingchuan was too young, 15 years old.He also knows how to find foreign aid.Few people think of having a lawyer review it when signing a contract, only to regret it later when they discover loopholes.Qingchuan knew from a young age that chopping wood should not be a mistake in sharpening knives, and this caution alone deserves his serious attention.
They signed another contract, and Qingchuan signed a short three-month contract with the newspaper to provide a new story of the same series every month, with no less than [-] words.All kinds of copyrights are still in the hands of Qingchuan, but for all published by their newspaper, their publishing house enjoys the right to republish and publish together.
The manuscript fee is 35 yuan per thousand words.
Qingchuan insisted on signing a short-term contract, because he still thought about raising the price after three months.
And he has secretly made up his mind to publish his detective works in another famous newspaper.There is no need to choose the content. It is easy to grasp the things he has written before, and he can also describe the loopholes in logic and common sense.
He is absolutely unwilling to be held in the hands of others like this, and he has not signed an exclusive author's contract, so he can publish it separately.
A writer who has no cards is a money-making tool in the hands of the publishing house. When making money, it is beautiful, but in fact there are really not many things in hand.And they are always short of those publishing houses, unless they have made a name for themselves, maybe they are a little more respectable.That is to say, powerful people still don't take writers seriously.
He had never swallowed his anger like this in mainland China at the same time, and he couldn't do it here either.
After The Invisible Man came his second, The Man in the Closet.
The person in the cabinet is a two-dimensional existence. It is very thin, as if it has only one piece of skin. It can fold itself into any shape, and can also be compressed into a paper-like sheet to swim on the surface of various objects.When seen, it is the appearance of their worst fears in anyone's eyes.It only likes to hide in closed and dark small spaces, such as wardrobes, cracks in the walls, and above the ceiling, which makes it feel safe.
Contrary to the invisible man, the closet man has an extreme fear of being seen, and if it is seen, it emits a horrific scream that destroys any electrical appliances that are working.
Usually it is very docile and harmless, but when people see it, it becomes very angry. It will change into whatever image you are afraid of. It is extremely fast and powerful, and can break a bowl in an instant. Thick steel bars.
The person in the cabinet is a special two-dimensional creature, which can be attached to any plane and cannot be caught.
So at the beginning, the case was very strange, wild animals entered the house and killed people, people sucked blood to death, cardiac arrest due to fear, and the body was professionally divided... But there was no trace of anything leaving the scene.
The only survivor was a child who was in the period of changing teeth and was very afraid of the doctor who pulled out her teeth. Then she had all her teeth pulled out. Fortunately, they were all deciduous teeth, which were harmless.When it was about to kill, the child's parents came back and found that the light was broken, so they used a flashlight to illuminate it and drove it away.
The protagonist duo found its weakness based on these clues. The people in the cabinet don't like light, and it can't move when it is illuminated by light. This is its only weakness.They found him, sealed it up in a special container with spotlights on six sides, hooked it up to electricity, and buried it near the power plant.
The people in the cabinet cannot be killed, because of fear, they cannot be killed.
As soon as this article came out, the public cried out again, and when they saw cockroaches, they would be so excited that they would call the police, claiming that they had been attacked by 'the people in the closet'.
Sometimes Qingchuan really feels that it is an extremely great and rare thing for such a fragile creature as human beings to survive and develop to this day.
Because human beings don't have the attack power of ferocious beasts, they don't have the size of elephants, they don't have toxins... they are so fragile, and their souls are often inexplicably excited or frightened, and they can kill each other because of various things, yet they are still the top of the living beings.
Nature is so amazing.
Here, they are notoriously careless.
The top management are all British, they don't care about the life and death of the Chinese, they want 'Hong Kong people to rule Hong Kong', so they assign various gangs of black forces to oppress the Chinese and exploit them layer by layer.There are also large consortiums monopolizing people's livelihood, causing prices to only rise but not fall, and it is difficult for dual-earner families to support their families.
The social class does not flow, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, and there is no anti-monopoly law, and the people at the bottom can see no hope in their children, and there is no room for advancement.The soles of other people's feet are your own ceiling, so it's more than just heartache?It's just that he is small and weak, and has no voice when speaking, so he has to mix like this.
"It's not that I don't allow it. In the food business, the craftsmanship must be special before someone buys it. You can count on one hand the food you cook at home, which means you can eat it. If you want to do this business, you have to prove your ability .” Qingchuan’s mother used this to dispel his idea.
"I can buy some materials and make it once. Two of the three people in my family agree, so let me try it. I don't go to far places, nor go to the streets in the downtown area. I go to the school gate earlier to set up a stall. Just in the morning. People only come out to hang out in the afternoon when they hang out on the street, and I am at the school gate, so if it really doesn’t work, let them have a free meal.”
When he said this, his mother couldn't refuse, and if the boy wanted to go out, the family couldn't grind his will too hard.
Qing Chuan went to buy the ingredients, some flour, pork and leeks, and he used a frying pan at home to fry a pot of dumplings. The dumpling bottom was crispy, the dumpling skin was tough and chewy, and the filling was tender. The combination was just right. One wants to eat a pot.
The two younger brothers and sisters ate without raising their heads, and proved their elder brother's craftsmanship with practical actions. Even the neighbors next door came to smell it.
"Sister-in-law of the Gu family, I think Ah Sheng is doing well in this business." The grandmother next door spoke the local dialect with a strong local accent, full of praise.
The prices are high, the food is expensive, and the neighbors in the neighborhood don’t eat too much. Everyone eats one. There are three sauces on it, vinegar, tomato sauce, sweet and sour sauce mixed with vinegar, and hot sauce. Everyone has their own preferences, but no one said. Unappetizing.
Qing Chuan looked up at her, she knew that the child had made up her mind, so she nodded.
She gave Qingchuan 500 yuan, which was the capital.She only spent more than 100 yuan for sweeping the land for a month, and it was almost 70 yuan plus various tips.It’s the early 500s, and you can eat a meal for a few cents, not less than [-] yuan.The family relies on this little income to make ends meet. If it weren't for the house they bought, they wouldn't be able to pay the rent alone, let alone raise their children.Therefore, I don't have any savings, and sometimes I have to be cheeky to ask my elder brother for help, but my sister-in-law looks down upon me.
Qingchuan went to the flea market to find a second-hand snack cart, it was well repaired, and it was barely usable.I also bought a large iron pan and other odds and ends, and have since started the breakfast cart business.
The place where he set up his stall is across the river at Wenbo Primary School, where most of the students come from well-to-do families.The rich and powerful families usually don’t eat street stalls, and don’t eat those who don’t have money, so they have to choose a school attended by upper-class families, and the children have some change in their hands.Like the original body, because of poverty, he went to a missionary school nearby, so he hardly ate at street stalls, and had no money in his pocket.
In fact, middle school children are even richer, but considering that the original owner's small body cannot withstand the torture, he still chose elementary school.
No matter how good the school is, there are school bullies, and there is no anti-criminal activities here. There are gangs everywhere, and many middle school students get mixed up in the society. Qingchuan is not afraid of fighting. up.In addition, there is a system of repeating grades in schools nowadays, and many gangsters are still in middle school as adults. They say they are students, but they are almost social people.
There is nothing he can do about middle school students, but when facing elementary school students, he still has some height and age advantages.
There are no fixed types of stalls in Qingchuan, except for white porridge, which is fixed, and everything else is exchanged.Fried dumplings today, stir-fried rice cakes with fried noodles on iron plates tomorrow, and fried glutinous rice the day after tomorrow.But the taste is very good, but within half a month, the students of Wenbo Primary School have won the appetite, and even the teachers here have to buy two for breakfast.
His asking price is not high, usually one piece is enough to feed adults, and children are more economical.Because the stalls are opened early, the stalls are usually closed before nine o'clock, and troubles are rarely encountered.But because he has already set up a stall there, he still has to pay the protection fee, and there is a fixed amount of the fee. Qingchuan only thinks that he has paid the land rent, so he can only forget it.
Qingchuan set up a stall in the morning, and went to buy materials for the next day at noon, and usually had nothing to do in the afternoon.I don't go out to play with other peers, and write manuscripts at home with a pen.His mother worked as a cleaner in an entertainment club and had no other requirements for the eldest son, as long as he didn't make trouble, so he wrote and sent it to the newspaper.Anyway, the postage is not too much.
In fact, she didn't have the slightest expectation in her heart, and she hadn't heard that her eldest son was particularly good at writing, but she still encouraged her son very much.
Sometimes the neighborhood jokes about Qingchuan, a dropout kid who didn't pass the high school entrance exam, and learned how to write manuscripts, she scolded them back.Don't look at her being very gentle in front of the children, her voice is soft, and she is full of air when she scolds people. She doesn't take a breath for 15 minutes without repeating a word of abuse, which is the essence of a street shrew.
That's right, she is not a weak person if she can keep her family at a young age.
Qingchuan used to write a lot of detectives, but now he changed it, he wrote horror.
He has carefully studied the setting of the original plot, and the ghosts in this world are imaginary monsters, pure spiritual energy bodies.Generally, it is all kinds of stories about gods and ghosts in ancient times, as well as urban strange tales, which did not exist before, and spread widely. With the blessing of human thoughts, it appeared, and when the people who spread the belief disappeared, it disappeared again.
So for so many days, even if he deliberately went to the home of someone who had just died, he didn't see many souls. Even if there were occasionally, they were very weak and disappeared soon.
The system said that this kind of wandering ghosts belonged to a category of 'wandering spirits', no matter how many there were, it was only one type.
On the contrary, many other species have been found in schools with various campus legends, but they can also be summarized as 'toilet ghost' and 'sleeping ghost'.Because these ghosts do not have very specific settings, the background introduction is very general, and their behaviors are similar, so they are classified into one category.
Just like the 'ghost' he caught, all female ghosts who suck human blood belong to this category.
The worse thing is coming, this kind of ghost can't be killed.
The erotic ghost he trapped with chicken blood ropes, sun exposure, roasting, frying, electricity, splashing black dog blood, sprinkled salt...all worked, but they couldn't die. recover.
Afterwards, he investigated and visited, and it turned out that there was indeed such a legend of a erotic ghost in the local area.According to the legend, the ghost has a name and a surname, and there are records of how many people have been sucked dry. Many people really believe it, not just reading it as a story.These people sent their ideas continuously, so that she could not die no matter what.
If the legend is deciphered, and everyone knows it is false, maybe she will not exist.Unless the person who designed and produced this rumor is still alive.
In the plot, the protagonist creates a monster with his own hands because of spreading rumors of campus horror.This monster instinctively pursues the person who created it. The protagonist spends his time dispelling the rumors that the ghost is going to disappear, but it is still fine.
The protagonist and others analyzed that because the protagonist, the person who created it, still exists, it will not die.Several of the protagonist's friends died, and there were still a bunch of innocent students involved in the school. Everyone sealed it with the method of sealing it in rumors after a narrow escape.
Of course, Qing Chuan didn't want her to die, after all, dispelling such rumors is a thankless task.What's more, he still has a task hanging on him, one hundred high-definition photos.
"Too weak." Qing Chuan dislikes Yan Gui very much, because it is a traditional setting, there are a lot of things to restrain Yan Gui, such as chicken blood, black dog blood, ink fountain line, salt...etc. High is also useless.So he took a clear and unobstructed full-body photo of Yan Gui and let her go.
Yangui didn't dare to take revenge at all, so she slipped away.
What a ghost, he ran out in the middle of the night to find this area. It was already a huge place, and there were only a dozen or so non-human creatures found scattered here and there, and many of them were still on the verge of dissipating.
There are so few types of ghosts, how long will it take to collect a hundred?Could it be that he went to Dongpu to collect some exotic ghosts?Otherwise, wait for more than 20 years to come back, okay, the mainland is vigorously breaking down superstitions.
After much deliberation, if I write some urban ghost stories myself, maybe someone will believe it?Even if there can't be more, the ones that are about to dissipate must be stabilized.
If it doesn't work, I have to wait for the ghost gate to open in the middle of July, and I don't know if the group photo is in compliance with the rules.
Qingchuan's literary talent is still there.No matter how stupid a person is, he will become better after studying for a long time, not to mention that he has studied several worlds seriously.His first article was included, and it was divided into ten issues and published in the supplement, each issue was about [-] words long.
Because he is a newcomer, the manuscript fee given is not high, only eighteen thousand words.Nowadays, a bowl of wanton noodles costs a few yuan, which is really not that high.There is a wonton equation here. The normal fixed author’s manuscript fee should be [-] words equal to [-] bowls of wonton noodles. A well-known author counts money in terms of words. A word is a few cents, and a thousand words is several hundred.
But writers have no power. They cannot argue with publishers over manuscript fees. Offending one family means offending the entire circle.
The title of the first part is 'The Invisible Man', starting with serial murders, leading to a very strange creature, an invisible man.
Sometimes you feel that someone is watching you, watching you, on the road, at work, at school, at home, or even in your sleep.But anyway, you can't see it.Sometimes cameras and cameras can spot it, like an underexposed shadow.
This kind of monster was born in the dark. Its setting is that it cannot be seen by humans, but it is extremely eager to be discovered, so it will follow those who are popular and concerned. It gives them three chances to find out its existence.
Sometimes it is a guest at your party that you don't know, who has no impression, but knows everything about you like a good friend.
Sometimes it is a neighbor who passed you by, and you feel familiar, but you can't name it.
Sometimes you see it at school and you're not sure if it's your classmate, even though it's wearing a school uniform.
If after three times it is not recognized, it will twist your throat when you are alone.
The invisible man is not afraid of what most traditional ghosts are afraid of. Mahogany swords, crosses, lights, animal blood, etc. are useless to it.The only thing that can trap it is the blockade formed by the white salt.But once you look at it, because of the setting of 'unable to be seen', even if it is surrounded, you will escape in the next second.
Qing Chuan couldn't help but think of illegitimate meals, those stalkers, voyeurs...
This is a series, The Invisible Man is the first article, about 3 words, and the accompanying letter costs a little less than [-], which is almost three months’ salary of his mother plus tips, or his two and a half months’ breakfast stall income.
From this point of view, authors who write manuscripts can indeed be counted as middle-income people, decent, and don’t have to be entangled by gangsters, and they won’t be forced to take away protection fees.Whether setting up a stall or sweeping the floor, they are low-level occupations, because the income is low and the risk is high.
This matter was soon known, there are no secrets here, the sound insulation effect of the wall is not very good, and the family members always have a feeling of pride, and then blow it outside as a talking point.So almost the next day, the whole building knew about it.
In their view, selling words is a pretty good job. Many writers can only barely support their families by selling words, and it is difficult to live decently without other income.But for the people in this building, just being able to make ends meet is already pretty good.
They borrowed the newspaper, read the first issue with relish, and couldn't help but follow the development of the plot after he asked.The editor of the newspaper office is very bad at breaking the manuscript at the key point, and knows the essence of leaving suspense.
Of course Qingchuan would not say that chasing after him is also a kind of fun.
The story was unexpectedly popular, and many people, especially those beautiful women, felt that there was really such a creature stalking her and spying on her.The newspaper office sent him a bunch of letters from readers, most of which stated that they were troubled by this.
Even the neighbor next door, a 50-[-]-year-old woman whose arms are thicker than Qingchuan's thighs, came to tell Qingchuan that she was being followed by invisible people.She sincerely believes that there are invisible people chasing her.She asked Qingchuan for help, although the story has already given a solution, which is to call out the name of the person who broke its disguise.
"It will only find people who are popular and popular." Qing Chuan said seriously.
"I know, isn't that me? Who doesn't know me in this building?" The aunt's voice trembled, she was really scared.
Qingchuan: ...
What gave you this illusion?
Because of the fire of the first article, Qingchuan felt that he had the capital to bargain, so he went to the newspaper office in person, holding his handwritten manuscript in his hand.He didn't know the depth of this industry, so he had to hire a professional. He spent a lot of money. At the price of 80 yuan an hour, he hired a lawyer with considerable experience in this field.
The editor in charge of the newspaper was also very surprised to see him, Qingchuan was too young, 15 years old.He also knows how to find foreign aid.Few people think of having a lawyer review it when signing a contract, only to regret it later when they discover loopholes.Qingchuan knew from a young age that chopping wood should not be a mistake in sharpening knives, and this caution alone deserves his serious attention.
They signed another contract, and Qingchuan signed a short three-month contract with the newspaper to provide a new story of the same series every month, with no less than [-] words.All kinds of copyrights are still in the hands of Qingchuan, but for all published by their newspaper, their publishing house enjoys the right to republish and publish together.
The manuscript fee is 35 yuan per thousand words.
Qingchuan insisted on signing a short-term contract, because he still thought about raising the price after three months.
And he has secretly made up his mind to publish his detective works in another famous newspaper.There is no need to choose the content. It is easy to grasp the things he has written before, and he can also describe the loopholes in logic and common sense.
He is absolutely unwilling to be held in the hands of others like this, and he has not signed an exclusive author's contract, so he can publish it separately.
A writer who has no cards is a money-making tool in the hands of the publishing house. When making money, it is beautiful, but in fact there are really not many things in hand.And they are always short of those publishing houses, unless they have made a name for themselves, maybe they are a little more respectable.That is to say, powerful people still don't take writers seriously.
He had never swallowed his anger like this in mainland China at the same time, and he couldn't do it here either.
After The Invisible Man came his second, The Man in the Closet.
The person in the cabinet is a two-dimensional existence. It is very thin, as if it has only one piece of skin. It can fold itself into any shape, and can also be compressed into a paper-like sheet to swim on the surface of various objects.When seen, it is the appearance of their worst fears in anyone's eyes.It only likes to hide in closed and dark small spaces, such as wardrobes, cracks in the walls, and above the ceiling, which makes it feel safe.
Contrary to the invisible man, the closet man has an extreme fear of being seen, and if it is seen, it emits a horrific scream that destroys any electrical appliances that are working.
Usually it is very docile and harmless, but when people see it, it becomes very angry. It will change into whatever image you are afraid of. It is extremely fast and powerful, and can break a bowl in an instant. Thick steel bars.
The person in the cabinet is a special two-dimensional creature, which can be attached to any plane and cannot be caught.
So at the beginning, the case was very strange, wild animals entered the house and killed people, people sucked blood to death, cardiac arrest due to fear, and the body was professionally divided... But there was no trace of anything leaving the scene.
The only survivor was a child who was in the period of changing teeth and was very afraid of the doctor who pulled out her teeth. Then she had all her teeth pulled out. Fortunately, they were all deciduous teeth, which were harmless.When it was about to kill, the child's parents came back and found that the light was broken, so they used a flashlight to illuminate it and drove it away.
The protagonist duo found its weakness based on these clues. The people in the cabinet don't like light, and it can't move when it is illuminated by light. This is its only weakness.They found him, sealed it up in a special container with spotlights on six sides, hooked it up to electricity, and buried it near the power plant.
The people in the cabinet cannot be killed, because of fear, they cannot be killed.
As soon as this article came out, the public cried out again, and when they saw cockroaches, they would be so excited that they would call the police, claiming that they had been attacked by 'the people in the closet'.
Sometimes Qingchuan really feels that it is an extremely great and rare thing for such a fragile creature as human beings to survive and develop to this day.
Because human beings don't have the attack power of ferocious beasts, they don't have the size of elephants, they don't have toxins... they are so fragile, and their souls are often inexplicably excited or frightened, and they can kill each other because of various things, yet they are still the top of the living beings.
Nature is so amazing.
