Teacher Daxiang, let’s form a lifelong band!

It seems that my buddy's plan to make some money by taking out a loan and then wait for an opportunity to become famous on Pornhub has to be terminated.

that's too regretful.

"No, I have some personal matters recently so I have stopped updating." Lu Li naturally would not be abstract in front of the editor, so he answered the question of why he stopped updating truthfully.

"So that's how it is. We thought you were going to stop updating, Mr. Si Shao. May I ask, when are you planning to resume?"

"Today, actually, the follow-up content has already been written, but I was busy these days and didn't pay attention to it." Lu Li replied.

"!"

Hearing Lu Li mention that there would be follow-up content, the editor on the other end of the phone's eyes lit up: "Teacher Si Shao, do you have a draft in reserve?"

"Yes, of course I do. For light novels, I have outlines and drafts." Lu Li replied.

"!"

The editor was even more excited.

It seems like she found a treasure?

A light novel author who has an outline and drafts is not one of those rookies who just starts writing when he thinks of a plot on the Internet.

As a veteran editor, she knew a lot. In this day and age, there were many gifted people.

There are countless talented authors who can become popular by simply writing tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of words on a whim. However, these authors often rely on momentary inspiration to write light novels without a complete story outline. The result of signing such books is that the first one or two volumes become popular, but then the work plummets after they lose inspiration and are eventually cancelled.

But this time it seemed different. From the other party's answer, the editor heard something different.

The author of the book "I Want to Form a Quilt Band with You" does not seem to be a rookie. He has a complete outline and drafts saved, which shows that he is not an author who writes on impulse, but a talented person who has thought about how to write.

The editor asked expectantly, "Teacher Si Shao, if it's convenient, could you please send me the outline and manuscript of your work?"

"Sure." After saying this, Lu Li added, "I remember you have a manuscript mailbox at CiMao Library. Can I send it there?"

Although the other party was most likely not a liar, Lu Li, as a dark world walker and a terrifying thief, still remained cautious.

In a sense, he is now considered an expert in this area. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if he was fooled?

"No problem, no problem. Just write [萳丁] on the email. 萳丁 is my nickname. If you pay attention to that, I'll see it as quickly as possible."

"Okay, I don't have a computer right now, I'll send it to you later. By the way, can I ask, if my work can be signed, how many words will it take to sign it?" Lu Li asked curiously.

The editor quickly responded, "Teacher Si Shao, generally speaking, we wait until a work is about 80,000 to 100,000 words before signing it."

"80,000 to 100,000 words? I only publish 2,000 words a day now. Doesn't that mean I'll need almost a month?"

"No, no, no, Mr. Si Shao, that's for new authors. It's different for you. You just need to send us the outline and manuscript. After we confirm it, we can sign it within a week at most."

Mistaking Lu Li for being very concerned about the contract, the editor immediately responded that the word count for contract signing in their library was actually determined to see if the author could write long works. As for authors like Lu Li who had an outline and enough manuscripts, they only needed to confirm the contract and then arrange the contract immediately.

Lu Li nodded: "Within a week, okay, I understand. I will send you the outline and the draft as soon as possible."

"That's settled then. Teacher Si Shao, do you have any other questions?"

"Nothing."

"Then I won't bother you for now. I'll be waiting for the information you sent over. Goodbye."

"OK, bye."

After the last sentence, Lu Li hung up the phone.

As soon as the call was hung up, the three girls beside Lu Li immediately looked at Lu Li with joy.

"!"

"Lu Li, was the call just now from the editor of the light novel library?" Toyokawa Shoko asked first.

"Yes, that's right. They said they took a fancy to my novel and wanted to ask me to look at the outline and subsequent drafts." Lu Li nodded.

"real?!"

Toyokawa Shoko laughed happily.

That’s great! Lu Li’s novel has finally been picked up by the editor of the library!

Being noticed by the editor means that Lu Li will receive a substantial signing fee, and once he receives the signing fee, it means that Lu Li will no longer have to get up early and stay up late every day in the hot summer to sell crepes in the park and at the school gate!

"Lu Li!!!" Toyokawa Shoko was so excited that she almost cried.

Great.

The person she loves will finally no longer have to suffer.

Although selling crepes is not a shameful thing, it is really hard work. She has done it before and knows the bitterness of it best.

No matter it is scorching hot or freezing cold, Lu Li gets up early and works late every day, selling dozens or even hundreds of handmade crepes. Although the income is considerable, this job is really too hard, so hard that it makes her feel distressed.

You know, a big part of the reason why she wants to quickly form a band is to make money quickly. After making money, she has to solve not only the debts she has to bear because of her bastard father, but more importantly, she also wants Lu Li to become rich sooner. She really can't bear to let Lu Li work so hard selling crepes anymore.

"Lu Li, congratulations!"

“That’s great.”

Not only Toyokawa Shoko, but also Nagasaki Suyo and Wakaba Mutsu were also very excited at this time.

It's not just Toyokawa Shoko who feels sorry for Lu Li, they feel the same way.

One of them is the former eldest daughter of the Ruoye family, and the other is the current eldest daughter who lives in a top-notch luxury apartment. Both of them are the type who don't worry about money at all, but the better they live, the more they feel sorry for Lu Li.

780 yen per crepe.

It takes Lu Li about ten minutes to prepare the crepes from the raw materials to the final product. If he works for ten hours a day, he can only make sixty crepes after a hard day's work, so his income is 46800 yen, and that's when he sells out.

However, it is actually impossible to sell out. Under normal circumstances, only about 2 to 3 pieces are sold a day, and the income fluctuates between yen and yen.

2 to 3 yen a day, this income is indeed not much, but it is not much either!

For them, these tens of thousands of yen were probably just pocket money that they could get by asking their parents. However, for Lu Li, they required him to get up early and work late to earn every penny with his own hands.

It’s not that this hard-earned money is bad, but it’s really too difficult.

During the peak summer season, excluding a few days of rest, the monthly income is approximately 50 to 60 yen.

During the off-season of spring and winter, income may be cut in half to only tens of thousands of yuan a month.

All in all, it wasn't much money a year, and they still had to pay for Lu Lian's medical expenses, the living expenses of the two of them, and Lian's tuition at Hanasakigawa.

In order to save money, he usually doesn't drink beverages and eats rice balls that cost a few hundred yen from convenience stores. They really feel sorry for him.

Lu Li's life is really difficult, so difficult that they all want to take money directly from their families to subsidize Lu Li!

Take Ruo Yemu's situation as an example. She actually really wanted Lu Li to accept the ransom paid by her parents. Even if not all of it, at least 100 to 200 million yen or tens of millions of yen would be fine!

This way, the person she likes won't be so tired.

But fortunately, Lu Li’s novel is finally going to be signed, and Lu Li’s life is finally going to get better!

and......

It's not just about living, more importantly, as long as Lu Li has money and time, with Lu Li's ability, he will definitely be able to keep up with the current high school curriculum even if he transfers to a new class. In this way...

They can go to college together!

Volume 4: Chapter This must be Soyo's conspiracy (K)

(I'm coming, I was delayed by something, sorry~)

"Lu Li, the light novel matter is very important to you, so go and take care of your own business first."

Although she really wanted to take Lu Li to the ring, Toyokawa Shoko, who knew the priorities of the matter, took the initiative to push Lu Li to Nagasaki Suyo.

hateful.

The first thing she did after making money was to buy a computer at home to fish for Lu Li. No, she bought a computer for Lu Li!

It's really painful to have to watch the person you like walk into someone else's house because you don't have a computer.

"..."

Hearing what Toyokawa Shoko said, Ruoye Mu glanced at Lu Li and Nagasaki Sushi, then she looked at Toyokawa Shoko again: "I..."

"Mu, you have to go to the ring with me!"

Guessing what Wakaba Mutsu was thinking, Toyokawa Shoko interrupted Wakaba Mutsu's beautiful thoughts in time: "Mu, the band's matter is very important, you can't be absent!"

"..."

After looking at Fengchuan Xiangzi with pitiful eyes, Ruoye Mu could only say regretfully: "Xiangzi, you obviously want to be with Lu Li too..."

"???"

"Mu, what are you talking about!"

Toyokawa Shoko's face turned red instantly.

"I came to see Lu Li for something. I... I didn't want to be with you 24 hours a day... No, Mu, don't talk nonsense!"

Ahhh.

I almost said what was in my heart!

What if Lu Li misunderstands her as a casual girl?

but......

Toyokawa Shoko secretly glanced at Lu Li. She had said it so clearly, shouldn't Lu Li know what she felt?

"Indeed, Mu, you may have misunderstood. Xiangzi is wholeheartedly working hard for the band. She probably doesn't have much time to waste on me."

"..."

Toyokawa Shoko glanced at Lu Li.

Lu Li, you know you can’t go out after marriage!

I don't have much time?

Wait, do you think I have time?

If I let you out of our bedroom again, I’ll be the loser!

"Huh? Xiangzi, why are you staring at me? Is there something dirty about me?" Lu Li asked curiously.

"No."

There are no filth, but there are fools.

Why do you think I work so hard, waking up early every morning to go to school, working in customer service after school in the afternoon, studying late at night at home, and even thinking about the world view of my new band Ave Mujica in the middle of the night?

It’s all for our future!

Every minute invested now will translate into many minutes between us in the future, and you still dare to say there is no time to waste on your side?!

You wait!

I'll have a lot of fun when you get married!

"Then let's separate here, Mu, let's go."

Toyokawa Shoko glanced at Lu Li with some greed, and then she took Ruoye Mu to the ring.

"Lu Li, I'm leaving..."

Ruoye Mu also looked at the person she liked reluctantly.

After I make some progress in guitar, I'll confront my parents. Otherwise, Lu Li might be taken away by Xiangzi and Soyo before we even get married...

"Lu Li, let's go home."

After Wakaba Mu and Toyokawa Shoko left, Nagasaki Suyo smiled and took Lu Li's hand.

Thanks, mom.

It's really nice to have a laptop at home.

Fortunately, I didn't insist on not having a computer at that time. It's true that it's better to be prepared for anything.

So, the two of them walked towards Soyo's house, and after walking for a few minutes, Lu Li found something wrong.
