The editor criticized his writing for being too unsophisticated, expanding a simple line of dialogue into hundreds of words. He said that he also wrote "The Sailboat the Day Before Yesterday" in the same way.

 In despair, he regarded "The Sailboat the Day Before" as his spiritual food.

 Until he received the first payment——

 "dong dong dong..."

 There was a knock on the door, and Finkiho quickly put down the character peripherals in his hand and stumbled to open the door.

 As soon as the door opened, Salma Garner's fat face came into view:

 "Finkiho, my child..."

 She squeezed through the door, her eyes emitting a ghostly light:

 "I heard... the doujinshi I paid for... doesn't seem to be able to be published on time?"

 "You lost to... a newcomer, a little girl...? You know, I spent a lot of money..."

 "...I helped you to establish connections."

Chapter 655: Laziness in Comfort (Part 14) -3k- (Double Update in One)

 Finkiho's pupils shrank into a tiny dot when Salma spoke.

 He was terrified because he didn't expect Salma to come to him.

 He vaguely remembered that afternoon after receiving the relief meal, a butler in formal attire came to his door and took out a

 His manuscript.

 "Work for us," the butler turned around, "we will open up channels for you, and as long as your work is published, you will receive a sum of money.

 "Who do you work for?"

 “Salma Garner, ma’am, you should be familiar with her name.

 When he first heard that name, Finkiho's sleeping hole might have shrunk even smaller than it does now.

 That was Massena's. She could not be called the emperor, but she owned half of the country. The whole city was her property.

 In other words, it is the property of the Messina Chamber of Commerce, but it is managed by her.

 A person of such status actually wants him to work

 Finkiho later learned that he wasn't the only one.

 Many third-rate authors—or rather, readers who have tried to create—have been recruited into this

 Plan to create some works mainly for the sinking market.

 What they need to do is actually very simple, which is to add elements that are beneficial to the Chamber of Commerce into these works.

 The New Party is evil, the old king is evil, the August Party is evil, and the Chamber of Commerce is the light that saves Massena.

 These elements can be freely replaced with other skins as long as they can be integrated into the world view, but the core is the word "Chamber of Commerce"

 Apart from these, there are some customized plots: for example, when the whole city is starving, it is the Chamber of Commerce rather than the King who saves people;

 For example, people in the Chamber of Commerce are always kind and friendly, and they are generous to everyone.

 Publishing is a simple matter. The Chamber of Commerce will spend money to take care of it, and everything else will basically come naturally.

 To be honest, writing essays on assignments like this always made him feel sick. He wanted to make money from his own original work, but he just couldn't seem to meet the standards for publication.

 The editor suggested that he read some world classics, read more books and think more.

 But he was too lazy.

 He felt that the texts of those famous books were so obscure that they made people vomit.

 He was too lazy to take the time to savor it.

 The same is true of the in-depth plot, "The Sailing Ship the Day Before Yesterday" is interesting to watch.

 Good writing is what he can understand, and it is also very profound. Massena is so popular, he is a very good writer.

 There is no problem in being on par with famous works.

 Just write it according to this flavor, you won’t go wrong.

 As for doujinshi... that's fine too.

 Although Finkiho was unwilling to become someone else's writer, he was really short of money and he really needed this job.

 He was a poor kid since he was young. He never worked hard in life. After receiving the food, he basically went to the reading club to quarrel with others.

 The.

 He has to make some money first, otherwise he won't be able to eat.

 Besides, after all, it was a doujinshi about "The Sailboat of the Day Before Yesterday", which was the world's number one masterpiece in his heart.

 Finkiho followed the outline given by the butler and used his strong willpower to forge a magical work comparable to "The Sailboat of the Day Before Yesterday".

 Level writing.

 In the end, I met Ruby and her literary novels.

 That guy looked pampered, and from her clothes you could tell she was a rich lady.

 The eldest lady is here to play house

 He thought he would definitely surpass her. After all, "The Day Before Yesterday's Sailing" had many fans and the editor-in-chief had also opened a channel.

 Who knew that at that autograph session, Zheng Mei was treated like a clown, defeated head-on on the logical level, and left in disgrace.

 The next day, the votes were reversed.

 After returning home, Finkiho slumped down on a chair, unable to do anything.

 Perhaps he should go and explain, or perhaps he should find the housekeeper to make amends and see if there is any way to recover the loss.

 But he can't.

 Or rather, he was too lazy to do it.

 Powerless.

 He was too powerless.

 Whatever I do seems to fail, and my life is useless. The only time I can show my value is probably when I use that

 When you open your mouth to bite someone

 He didn't want to resist anymore, so he just starved to death.

 but who knows

 Salma Garner actually came to the door.

 "Please listen to my explanation."

 Finkiho fell into the chair, and with a "clang", his weight crushed the chair.

 He fell to the ground, stretched out his hands tremblingly:

 "It's all that big-lady-like guy. She must have bribed the editor-in-chief! I was sure I would win.

 Salma came in person, he must be here to settle accounts with him.

 Finkiho knows Salma's methods and he doesn't want to die

 He hasn't read the latest Victory chapter of "The Sailing Ship of the Day Before Yesterday" yet.

 "Don't be afraid, child."

 Finkiho felt his chin lifted up. He stared at Salma blankly, and she smiled evilly: "Tell me, what bottleneck have you encountered in your creation?"

 "I…."

 "There is no bottleneck, because there is none! Right!

 Salma burst into laughter, and Funkiho was stunned.

 He stared at Salma's smile blankly and murmured:

 "you."

 "I can hear everything in your heart"

 Salma gently grasped her chest, a crimson light flickering in the depths of her eyes.

 "You could have been more prepared, right? After the debate with that woman, you could have prepared a counterattack!

 Or you can organize the manuscript of the trial reading and strive to win the vote the next day! Or, you can contact me

 Let him go to the editorial department and settle this matter!

 "But you didn't do anything, didn't you? It's really unbelievable that you didn't do anything and just sit here and complain about yourself."

 "I, I."

 Looking at Salma's distorted fat face, Finkiho shouted:

 "I was wrong! I shouldn't have"

 "No! That's what you should do!

 Salma patted Funkiho's shoulder solemnly and nodded in approval.

 This shot stunned Finkiho.

 "Miss"

 "You have always been so lazy, haven't you?" Salma's mouth curled slightly, "I have no father or mother, I would rather accept charity than work.

 The author clearly wants to enter the world of literature, but does not want to spend time to understand those famous works. He clearly has a chance to reduce the loss after losing the debate.

 Lost, but already swallowed up by my own self-centered and somewhat boring emotions...

 "How lazy you are! You're so lazy that you don't even know the allusions in 'The Sailboat of the Day Before' that you worship so highly!

 He didn't even serve his own God wholeheartedly!

 "You're lazy! Lazy to the extreme!

 After Salma finished yelling, her face suddenly became calm.

 "But what if I tell you that you are not wrong?

 "I am not wrong"

 Although Finkiho did not feel that he was out of danger, he seemed to have sensed something about the purpose of Salma's visit.

 He had those dreams, in which he saw himself lying on a pile of books, unable to read a single word, and lying there forever.

 Then someone whispered in his ear:

 "Do you want to just fall asleep like this?"

 "No one will bother you with your desires. What's wrong with that? Why bother to understand that knowledge?"

 "As long as all beings are as depraved as you are"

 Dreams and reality overlapped, and Salma chanted with Finkiho's memory:

 "You will all be the same, and the differences will disappear."

 "I…"

 For some unknown reason, Finkiho stretched out his hand.

 "What should I do..."

 At this moment, the talented author of "Flowers Are Always Blooming" finally appeared in his mind.

 How he longed for such an existence, to conquer readers with his own words and stand on a hundred-foot-high building overlooking the sea of ​​books.

 And he doesn't even have the courage to sink and float in the sea of ​​books

 How can I climb a hundred-foot-high building?

 But what if he could pull those people down with him while sinking?

 The knowledge he didn't know

 Those who he cannot reach
