Henry ran all around the neighborhood, only the Giraffe publishing house, and farther away, he had to hitchhike to the city center. Henry was penniless, so naturally he couldn't go. As for the submission, there was neither postage nor money for copying the manuscript, and Henry meditated as he walked along the road. After thinking about it, I finally came to a conclusion: that is, find a job first!

After working part-time to earn money, and then copying manuscripts and submitting them to major publishing houses, there will surely be well-looking publishers who favor their novels.

But what kind of work are you looking for? Henry was troubled again. Henry spent the afternoon wandering around the train station, and finally he got a job, a job selling newspapers. This is a nondescript tabloid in London called "London Entertainment Newspaper", which gossips about the scandals of various celebrities every day and sells thousands.

Since then, Henry has been busy, and after finishing his housework during the day, he will go to sell newspapers, and find time to write novels in the evening. Since the last time Henry talked back to Lady Rosa, Lady Rosa has been a little more restrained, which has allowed Henry to have more free time. And Henry's family also knew about Henry's novel, which was naturally told to Peter by the editor-in-chief of Pulis.

Of course, Priss certainly did not forget to show his attitude towards the novel - extremely naïve and ridiculous!!

Therefore, Madame Rosa often satirized his novels in front of Henry, but Henry did not bother to pay attention to her and continued to go her own way.

Every day watching Henry's back with a small bag of newspapers in the distance, Lady Rosa always cursed and mocked viciously: "You broom star, no one will like your novels!!"

There is a lot of people around London train stations, but very few people buy newspapers, especially the obscure tabloids. Henry broke his leg and screamed out his throat, and only sold more than a hundred copies a day. And for each newspaper, Henry only gets 0.01 pounds, which is equivalent to earning one pound a day. After twenty or so days, Henry scraped together twenty or thirty pounds to make copies of three novels and submit them to three of the more well-known publishing houses.

Waiting is the most painful day.

Every day, Henry checked the mailbox outside the door to see if anyone had replied, but he was always disappointed, either the mailbox was empty all the time, or it was a thick pile of rejections. On one occasion, one of the publishers included a piece of paper with a piece of advice to Henry: "Please find a job with peace of mind, your life is not suitable for writing books and getting rich!" Henry's face turned red after reading it! Despite this, Henry was rejected by eight publishers back and forth, but he still did not give up.

Madame Rosa also checked her mailbox every day, and she sometimes thought that if a publisher took a fancy to Henry's novel, it would be able to sell it for money. So, although Madame Rosa laughed at Henry every day, she also had a bit of a fluke mentality, and whenever the mailman passed by the door, Madame Rosa would always ask, "Hi, sir, is there any mail from our house today?"

But as the days went by, and no publisher sent a contract, Madame Rosa no longer had any hope, but hated little Henry more and more. One night Rosa said to Peter, "Peter, let's send Henry away, I can't stand him any longer! He's just a white-eyed wolf that can't be raised!!"

"Rosa, we have signed an agreement...... Peter was puzzled.

Rosa exclaimed, "What is this! We can't afford two children, and the law can't make us starve to death." Ask a lawyer if we can give the child to someone else to raise. ”

"Okay. ”

The next day, Peter went to consult a lawyer. Henry, however, was kept in the dark and waited for a reply from the publisher. A week later, a guest suddenly arrived at the house.

"Mr. Will, please be seated!" Rosa greeted excitedly, and Peter busily brought Mr. Will a drink.

Will is dressed as a successful person, about thirty years old, with shiny hair and very energetic. His eyes were shrewd and shining, with a hint of wisdom.

"Mr. and Mrs. Williams, I am a lawyer at American Brothers, and I am now signing with you on behalf of Mr. Roger Nicholas, Mr. Roger Nicholas, on behalf of you, regarding the transfer of custody of Henry Williams. If there are no problems, please sign it!" Will handed a document to Mr. and Mrs. Peter.

While Peter and Rosa huddled together to read the agreement, Henry hid upstairs early to eavesdrop on their speech. At this time, Henry's face was very ugly, because he felt that his self-esteem had been severely damaged, and he was being sold like a commodity. Henry clenched his fists, his nails digging into his flesh, and he was about to squeeze out blood. A wave of anger rose in his heart, but there was nowhere to vent.

He knew that he might be "sold" tonight!!

After a few minutes, Peter and Rosa put down the document in ecstasy, and hurriedly said to Will impatiently: "There is no problem with the content of the agreement, we can sign it now!!!" And the reason for this urgency was that they saw that it was written in the agreement that Roger Nicholas would pay them five thousand pounds.

Originally, Peter and his wife were going to throw away their burdens, but they didn't expect to make a fortune, so they couldn't help but be happy!!

Both parties sign and shake hands. At this time, Peter asked embarrassedly, "Mr. Will, this ...... When will the money arrive?"

Will smiled and pulled a check from his clothes.

Peter and Rosa's eyes lit up.

……

Henry lay in bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep all night. It's disgusting to think of the happy and greedy faces of Mr. and Mrs. Peter after they signed. Maybe they're not asleep yet, and they're still laughing at the check. The corners of Henry's mouth moved, and a touch of disdain and ridicule appeared.

Tomorrow, tomorrow, where am I going tomorrow?

As soon as it was dawn, Rosa knocked on the door of the storage room.

"Henry, get up!" Rosa's voice was different from usual, and she seemed very pleasant.

Henry opened the door, and Rosa was stunned for a moment, because she saw Henry packing up his salute in a large bag.

"Yo, it seems that you are quite conscious. Eavesdropping on us yesterday?!"

"Hehe, don't worry, we helped you find a very rich family, you will be rich in the future, don't forget your uncle's family!!" Rosa said with a grin.

Henry didn't speak, and dragged her down the stairs with a salute.

Attorney Will drove to Peter's house early and was now sitting in the living room drinking coffee. Seeing Henry and Rosa coming down, Will stood up, walked up to Henry's side to help him carry the salute, and introduced himself: "Hello, Henry! I'm Will's lawyer! Your uncle has handed over custody of you to Mr. Roger Nicholas, and I'll take you to America today!"

"American ?!!" Henry was stunned, he didn't expect that he would be sold so far! Well, the United States is the United States......

Henry didn't speak, and followed Will with his head down. Behind him, Henry could faintly hear the triumphant laughter of Peter and his wife......

San Francisco, USA.

Henry and Will got off the plane, and a Ford drove up to them. Immediately, an old man with gray hair walked out. The old man looked very excited, and looked at Henry's eyes full of love. The old man stepped forward and hugged Henry vigorously, and his eyes were filled with tears.

"Little Henry, my poor grandson, my grandfather has finally seen you!!" the old man burst into tears.

Henry was suddenly stunned, why did he suddenly have a grandfather?

While Henry was stunned, the old man told him why. It turned out that the old man was really Henry's grandfather. When his mother married his father, the old man was extremely opposed, and even declared that if she dared to marry Henry's father, the old man would not recognize this daughter. As a result, after Henry's parents got married, his mother accompanied his father to live in England. The old man only has such a daughter under his knees, and after a long time, he regrets what he said at the beginning.

And Henry's maternal grandmother is still a Chinese woman, no wonder she looks very much like Chinese, with black hair, yellow skin, but blue eyes.

The old man sent someone to inquire about the news of Henry's parents some time ago, and actually got the news that his daughter's family was killed. The old man sent the white-haired man to the black-haired man, and he was filled with grief, and he instantly aged more than ten years. Later, when he learned that his grandson was actually fostered in the house of an extremely mean and greedy uncle, the old man did not want to take his grandson to live with him all the time.

Now, when he finally saw his little grandson, the old man couldn't help it for a while and burst into tears!

Henry looked at the old man's snot and tears, and couldn't help but feel sad. At the same time, I also felt the old man's full love for him, and I only felt that my heart was warm, and it was the warmest time since I crossed over. Henry hugged the old man and comforted: "Grandpa, don't cry, mom is gone, you still have me, I will take care of you in the future!"

The old man smiled with relief and held Henry's little hand: "Yes, I also have a good grandson, and God hasn't abandoned me yet!"

The crowd then got into the car and drove for half an hour to a European-style villa of five or six hundred square meters. There is a large garage in the villa, in which three cars have been parked, including the American Ford, the Japanese Honda, and the German Mercedes. In front of the villa is a small garden with all kinds of flowers and plants, and at the back of the villa there is a small swimming pool. The décor in the villa is not very luxurious, but it is very exquisite.

"Henry, grandpa will show you your new room!" said the old man, looking very happy, taking Henry's hand as he walked.

When you open the door, you will see a bright glass window, and the green trees outside are like sunshine. There is a separate bathroom in the room, all kinds of household equipment, and the old man also bought an Atari game console for Henry, which is placed next to the TV, and the box has not even been opened.

"Henry, do you like it here?"

"I like it!" Henry said to the old man that he was very happy, although the conditions here were not as good as the five-star hotels that Henry was used to living in his previous life, but the old man's heart was rare.

"If you like it, you can stay here with peace of mind in the future. ”

Henry nodded, settling down in the United States.

Later, Henry learned that his grandfather, Roger Nicholas, was the owner of a well-known bookstore chain in California, with assets of more than $20 million and a total of 25 bookstores.

On the third day after Henry's departure from England, a British publishing house was interested in publishing Henry's novel, and when Rosa opened the mailbox, she suddenly found a package, which she opened and found to be a publishing contract. Rosa was immediately surprised, and hurriedly called Peter, and the two couldn't help but discuss the contract in the evening.

"I can't see that any publisher has taken a fancy to Broomstar's novel!" Rosa, grinning, with a sour tone in her tone.

"yes, that Pulis guy was adamant that this novel was ridiculously naïve, and that absolutely no publisher wanted to publish it. Fortunately, someone else has already sent a publishing contract!" Peter hated Priss.

"If you buy out, you will get 20,000 pounds, and you will get 8% of the royalties. Rosa said with a look of remorse, "Oh, Peter, we're at a loss. We only got five thousand pounds and we lost even more!"

Both of them looked at the contract in a daze, with a look of regret.

"Rosa, are we going to tell Henry that there is a publisher willing to help him publish a book?" asked Peter.

Rosa screamed, "Tell him, and then let him show off in front of us?!! tear up the !!contract!

Hiss!!!!

Rosa was almost frenzied, tore the contract into shreds with both hands, and then threw it on the ground, scattering like peach blossoms......
