The world of film and television begins with Zhou Bingkun in the human world.
Chapter 17 Reencounter with Zheng Juan
On weekends, Zhou Bingkun can freely manage his own time because the live-in nanny Zhao Chunzhao is looking after Li Suhua.
So Zhou Bingkun thought he should go out and see if there was any way to make money.
After all, money is always an essential thing, no matter when.
To be honest, Zhou Bingkun is not wealthy right now.
With a monthly salary of eighteen yuan, ten yuan was paid directly to Zhao Chun, leaving only eight yuan. It was difficult to make ends meet even if he wanted to.
Don't think that giving Zhao Chun ten yuan a month is a lot.
Zhao Chun lived at the Zhou family's house, taking care of Li Suhua 24/7. She fed and watered Li Suhua, emptied her diapers, cleaned her body, and even learned massage to give Li Suhua massages daily. In addition, she cleaned the house and prepared three meals a day. This was no easy task.
They took the ten yuan with a perfectly justified attitude.
Fortunately, Li Suhua had given Zhou Bingkun fifty yuan before he went to the countryside, so he didn't have to worry about going hungry for a while.
In addition, Zhou Zhigang wrote another letter, saying that he had just started working and had not yet received his salary. He said that once he received his salary, he would send thirty yuan home every month, which was much more than Zhou Bingkun's salary.
However, Zhou Bingkun was not really interested in accepting Zhou Zhigang's money, or rather, Zhou Bingkun did not believe that the money Zhou Zhigang sent belonged to him.
That was sent back by Zhou Zhigang to cover the Zhou family's expenses.
That's why Zhou Bingkun wanted to go out for the weekend to see if there was any legal, non-criminal way to make money.
However, in this era, finding a way to make money outside of a regular job, and that it has to be legal, is obviously almost impossible.
You should know that, like Zheng Juan's family, anyone selling candied hawthorns outside the movie theater has to report to the subdistrict office and get their permission, and sometimes even have to do it under their arrangement, otherwise it's considered speculation.
Therefore, making money in this era is much, much more difficult than imagined.
Of course, if someone is a chef with excellent culinary skills, they can take on some freelance work outside, such as catering for weddings, births, or the passing of an elderly person. This is undoubtedly a very good way to make money.
You might even earn five or ten yuan by hosting a banquet.
However, Zhou Bingkun didn't have good cooking skills and couldn't do the job at all.
Like other crafts, such as carpentry and blacksmithing, Zhou Bingkun was completely unskilled.
Therefore, Zhou Bingkun was completely incapable of taking on private jobs to make money, a way that usually went unpunished.
Try writing a novel!
This was the only legitimate way for Zhou Bingkun to make money. Although he hadn't written any novels before transmigrating, he had read quite a few, so maybe he had some talent in this area?
Anyway, it's just a try, and it doesn't require a lot of capital.
Moreover, in the original novel "The World," there seems to be an editor from a publishing house or magazine who is Zhou Bingkun's friend. Later, Zhou Bingkun was even recommended by the editor to join the publishing house and get a permanent position.
Thinking about all this, Zhou Bingkun felt that writing novels should be a viable path.
Once you have an idea, put it into action immediately.
Zhou Bingkun tried to find some magazines to see what kind of articles they accepted and where he should publish his articles.
But after Zhou Bingkun had wandered around outside for a long time, he was completely numb.
Because 90% of domestic magazines have ceased publication.
Zhou Bingkun sighed heavily, feeling that life was really too difficult these days.
"Zhou Bingkun?"
Just as Zhou Bingkun was lamenting that his path to becoming a literary giant had been cut off, a woman's voice rang out from the side.
Zhou Bingkun turned his head and saw Zheng Juan staring at him with her big eyes wide open.
"It really is you." Zheng Juan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Zhou Bingkun's face, and then moved closer.
"Zheng Juan, what are you doing here—uh." After asking the question, Zhou Bingkun realized that he had unknowingly walked to the vicinity of the movie theater again, where Zheng Juan was selling candied hawthorns.
Zheng Juan chuckled, then glanced cautiously at Zhou Bingkun, then at the surroundings, before leaning closer and asking in a low voice, "Zhou Bingkun, what you said about Tu Zhiqiang, is it true?"
"Huh? You mean Tu Zhiqiang likes men? It's true, his girlfriend is named Shui Ziliu." Zhou Bingkun thought Zheng Juan was suspicious of Tu Zhiqiang's preferences.
"No, no, that's not what I'm asking about." Zheng Juan's face turned red instantly, and she quickly shook her head, her two long braids swinging with her movements.
"Then what are you asking?" Zhou Bingkun asked curiously.
"Um, you said Tu Zhiqiang had a crush on me and would secretly hire thugs to ambush me, but it's been a month and Tu Zhiqiang hasn't come to see me at all. The thugs you mentioned who were supposed to be there haven't shown up either. Are you... are you just trying to scare me?" Zheng Juan's tone was slightly accusatory.
Zheng Juan's words took Zhou Bingkun by surprise, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
After all, Zhou Bingkun was only trying to prevent Zheng Juan from falling into Tu Zhiqiang's trap. So, before he went to the countryside, he told Zheng Juan about what might happen in the future.
But when will Tu Zhiqiang want to get married? When will he set his sights on Zheng Juan?
These are all uncertain things.
It could be this year, next year, or even the year after next.
At the time, he was just thinking that he was going to leave and that he would be gone for many years and wouldn't be able to come back, so he informed Zheng Juan in advance.
Who could have imagined that Zhou Rong would run away? Zhou Bingkun had no choice but to return to Jichun.
Now, faced with Zheng Juan's questioning, he really didn't know how to explain.
Zheng Juan looked at Zhou Bingkun, who seemed unsure how to explain, and her gaze towards him changed.
Zheng Juan looked at Zhou Bingkun with anger in her eyes: "Zhou Bingkun, you're such a bad person! You deliberately scared me. Do you know how scared I've been for the past month? I was so afraid that I would be cornered by thugs. I didn't even dare to go out when it got a little dark..."
Zheng Juan, however, thought that what Zhou Bingkun had said to her before was just to scare her.
"I'm not kidding you, I'm telling the truth. It's just that although Tu Zhiqiang has his eye on you, he doesn't have any plans to get married yet. Once he does, he'll definitely make his move on you the first thing he does," Zhou Bingkun could only explain.
Zheng Juan rolled her eyes, not believing a word Zhou Bingkun said.
