Chapter 40: Change Begins Now
There are many people who would say that money is not important ...
This is true, of course, unless you have lived an ideal life and achieved your ambitions or missions, this sentence does not apply to you. The most correct thing is that you have to strike a balance between money and life, not to live for money, but to let money be your help.
Almost the vast majority of people in the world are busy running around for money, even doing everything they can, racking their brains to make money.
So, have you ever wondered what money is?
Truth be told, money is essentially nothing unless you attach meaning to it. It's just a tool to get what you want, whether it's status, status, power, fulfillment, quality of life, living your dreams or just trying to help those in need.
Money allows you to live the life you want most, don't think it's impossible, believe that there are really people in this world who live the life you want!
Arthur was thinking about one thing during this time, what did those successful entrepreneurs rely on to go from scratch to be worth hundreds of millions, or even tens of billions?
Maybe he could name a hundred or even more reasons, but Arthur summed up an important factor based on his current situation, and that is fearlessness!
What is fearless, is selfless!
You have a hundred dollars to give people ten dollars, easy. In fact, the more people have, the more they are afraid of losing, but you think about it the other way, in fact, you have nothing in the first place, what are you afraid of starting from scratch?
If you want to smash all your money to invest, Arthur is not afraid, he must be afraid, don't think that with memory, knowing the trend will definitely be able to make a lot of money, not to mention whether Arthur's most feared 'butterfly wings' will appear, so that things will change.
Just the ups and downs of the financial market, it doesn't mean that if you know a general trend, there is no risk at all, for the current Arthur, everything is the future of the world in his memory, both known and unknown.
On the one hand, you can honestly live the life of a rural aristocrat with a house and land, on the other hand, you are taking huge risks to fight for a future, one is content with the status quo, and the other is bold and hardworking, and courage is the most important factor.
Either never take that step, or now!
Arthur chose now, because this is a big opportunity he can seize, and if he seizes it, the world's will completely open its arms to him and let him gallop!
Looking at the back of the housekeeper Paul, who was still a little worried, left, Arthur smiled slightly, he could understand the housekeeper Paul's worries, some people have some things, before they really succeed, they will be regarded as crazy and crazy by people who don't understand.
Instead of wasting time and energy on these questions and incomprehensions, Arthur opened the document and continued to start his great business of writing books, he also needed to use fiction to enhance his social fame.
For all of us in Hampshire, it was just an ordinary day, and it continued to run as usual, even if the news that the newspaper was going to change the publication time did not cause much ripple for many readers who bought the new issue of the Southern Daily Echo, and similarly, the serialization of the novel "Boleyn Manor" published in the Southern Daily Echo did not cause much repercussions.
Of course, this is also a normal thing, but it is not that the slightest ripple has not occurred, and the two logos of "Boleyn Manor" and the author's signature Arthur Boleyn have still attracted some attention and discussion among some people.
In Highclell Castle, also in Hampshire, Countess Fiona Canaphon, who was holding a newspaper in her hand, knocked on the door of her husband's study, pushed the door and walked into the study, and unfolded the newspaper in her hand and handed it to her husband under the inquiring gaze of her husband, George Herbert, the eighth Earl of Carnaphon.
"Honey, look at today's Southern Daily Echo. ”
"Oh, is there anything big going on?" asked George Herbert, taking the newspaper, glancing at it in his hand with a puzzled expression, and finally at his wife.
"Nothing big happened, but there was an accident ... The countess said with a somewhat complicated expression, went around her husband's back, stretched out her hand and pointed to the serialization of the novel in the newspaper, and then said while massaging her husband's shoulders: "A big accident!"
George Herbert looked curiously at the newspaper position on his wife's finger, and his eyes were on the new column serialized in the novel, "Boleyn Manor?" After reading the name softly, George Herbert raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with some surprise: "Boleyn family?"
"Look at the author's signature... Hearing the surprise in her husband's tone, the countess continued to prompt with a somewhat complicated expression.
"Arthur Boleyn? There's nothing wrong with that, right?" After seeing the author's signature, George Herbert was stunned, as a nobleman in the Hampshire area, and the same earldom, even if they rarely interact, they still know and pay attention to each other very well.
The funeral of Francis Boleyn's death, George Herbert and his wife were also present, and they also know what kind of person the successor of the Earl of Boleyn is, Arthur Boleyn, according to what the other party did, that is a fool who will make the Boleyn family decline.
After reading the first chapter of Boleyn Manor with astonishment and surprise, George Herbert looked at his wife in disbelief and said, "Could this be that he asked someone to write it for him... How can a guy who only knows how to drink and make trouble, get into fights, and get kicked out of campus before he even finishes college, can write this kind of novel?"
"The first reaction, I thought the same, but who would let their work be signed by someone else? Moreover, this kind of thing can't be hidden for too long, and if it is found to be ghostwriting in the end, the reputation and credibility of the Boleyn family will be greatly damaged, and I don't think anyone will joke about this kind of thing. The Countess shook her head and analyzed.
George Herbert nodded in agreement, picked up the newspaper and looked at it again, and then said, "That's true, it was really created by Arthur Boleyn, it's really surprising, it seems that we should re-examine him." ”
"yes. The Countess squinted slightly, nodded and said, "However, there is no need to make a judgment in a hurry, this is only the first day of serialization, and it is difficult to say what the quality of the novel is, the Southern Daily Echo is the property of the Boleyn family, maybe it is their behavior to curry favor with the new boss." ”
"Huh. What if the quality of the novel is really good?" asked George Herbert, smiling at his wife.
"At next month's party, we'll prepare an invitation for him as well. ”
"Well, just do what you want. George Herbert nodded and smiled, picked up the newspaper again and sighed while reading: "Sure enough, you can't underestimate any aristocratic family, this is the foundation of nobility!"
"Yes, originally, I also wanted to ask someone to write a biographical novel based on the story of our Kanafon family, but I didn't expect him to take the lead. ”
Hearing his wife's sigh, George Herbert smiled and took his wife's hand and comforted: "He writes his, you do yours, this does not hinder ... ”
"No, I don't want people to think that our Canaphon family is emulating the Bolin family, you don't know those people, you won't say anything in person, and you don't know how to ridicule behind your back, even if you write, it's me who writes it myself, and I can't fake the hands of others!"
"Hehe, okay, then I'm looking forward to your masterpiece. George Herbert smiled and tapped the back of his wife's hand.
And Arthur Boleyn, who was enjoying a sumptuous afternoon tea, didn't know that his novel not only caused some repercussions among some well-intentioned people, but also appeared on the afternoon tea table at Buckingham Palace.
