Chapter 24 Self-defeating, Exploiting Strengths and Avoiding Weaknesses
The phone rang, and the brother-in-law's voice came from the other side!
Today is not the checkout day, call at this time, don't be bad news! The trouble of the novel has not been solved, and Lin Yi doesn't want to add any more trouble.
The heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and what my brother-in-law reported was really another bad thing: "I went to settle the bill last week, and two employees lied, saying that the business was difficult to do and the protection fee was too high. The income they hand over is less than half of that of others. I went to look at them and saw through their lies. ”
Hearing this, Lin Yi is a joy, and it turned out to be a secret visit! From this point of view, although his brother-in-law is illiterate, his brain is not bad. If you have a burden in the future, you can add a little more to him.
The thought turned, and Lin Yi was furious again. In times of economic crisis, how rare is a stable job! He pulled these people by the hand, and some people were ungrateful, and they really deserved a thousand cuts!
"When my father-in-law found out, he said that they were black sheep and kicked out of the company!"
Uncle Xiang's decisiveness made Lin Yi feel comfortable, just like eating ginseng fruit.
The brother-in-law didn't finish speaking, and there was a follow-up to the matter: "However, just after the typhoon, those two not only returned the money, but also knelt on the ground, cried bitterly, scolded themselves for not being human, and wanted to ask for your forgiveness!"
Hearing this, Lin Yi understood. The two embezzlers were not recruited later, but from shantytowns. The early warning of the mudslide saved their lives. can repent and reform, it seems that it has not broken to the root.
"What to do with it, it's a bit difficult here, and my father-in-law asked me to ask you. ”
Lin Yi's dream of 'raiding his home' is now in difficulty. He has a bunch of troubles by himself, how can he have the heart to ask about this? Just throw the pot directly: "Whether it is raising your noble hand or killing a hundred examples, Uncle Xiang is experienced, just watch and do it yourself!"
Throwing away the burden, Lin Yi started a new topic: "More than 40 employees, are there any who are quick and obedient and sensible?"
"There is one that stands out in particular, that Zheng Yue'e. Not only is it the first to enter the company, but its sales performance is a champion every time. We have all tasted the food she makes, and it is no worse than your eldest sister Chunhua!"
Isn't it the gambler's wife, of course Lin Yi remembers. He ordered: "For excellent employees, we also have to reward and set an example for others." Transfer Zheng Yue'e over, I want to get a tea restaurant, and I will leave it to her to take care of it. ”
Zheng Yue'e is also illiterate, so Lin Yi has to take her to run for many things. Compared to the food stalls, the tea restaurant is certainly more decent. A spark of hope flashed in the woman's eyes.
Lin Yi finished his work here and called Sunflower over. He pointed to the tea restaurant and asked for credit: "In the next three meals, let them deliver them." I also contacted the dry cleaners, so you won't need to wash our clothes in the future!"
Lin Yi's words failed to make the girl smile, but caused a misunderstanding.
There was a mist in her eyes: "Is it housework, I don't do it well enough, so you dislike it?"
If you can get rid of boring housework, shouldn't a woman smile and call her husband sweetly?
Lin Yi shouted wronged, took the other party's hand, touched the thin cocoon, and said sincerely: "I know your hard work! The four of them have to take care of a large garden, at least five hours a day. I know you want to be self-reliant, but our time is precious and we shouldn't use it like this. ”
Seeing that the girl turned cloudy to sunny, Lin Yi pointed at Zheng Yue'e and hurriedly worked harder: "Outsourcing housework will not only save us time, but she can also earn more money." ”
Perhaps, it is because of the burden of Zheng Yue'e, or perhaps, it is because the love has been conveyed in place. Sunflower's face finally showed a sweet smile!
Life is fresh and sweet, and the family has no worries about food and clothing. So the annoyance of rejection quickly subsided. After Lin Yi calmed down, he took out the manuscript of "Datang" and began to think about it carefully. He suddenly found that he couldn't read the book he wrote!
These days, his mood has been up and down, either tossing and turning, or he is excited. The article is of course affected, and it is full of problems.
After finding the reason, he cheered up, and the 100,000 words were greatly revised from beginning to end.
Lin Yi stayed up all night again, and Xiang Yanghua was a little worried: "This hurts your body too much! You don't have money in hand, why do you have to work so hard?"
Lin Yi waved his hand indifferently, and then said confidently: "It's not hard at all! This time it's definitely no problem, when the novel is published, I will be Lin Daxia!"
He never expected that the second submission of the manuscript would sink into the sea! This time, the publishing house didn't even bother to give a reply. This kind of complete neglect is even more uncomfortable than a stern refusal!
Lin Yi was furious, eager to hit the door, grabbed the other party's neck and asked!
Uncle Guan stopped him: "The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear." Get the manuscript out and let us go through it. ”
After reading it, the girls and children all wrote well in Kualinyi. However, based on their experience, they may not have read the novel, so the evaluation is not counted.
"In the 5,000 years of China, there were Qin and Han dynasties, and then there were Sui and Tang dynasties. "The Legend of Double Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", this name is good. As long as you are Chinese, you have the desire to read at a glance. ”
Uncle Guan has a lot of experience, but as soon as he finished boasting, he made a big flip: "Your historical skills are too poor, and this magnificent background has not been written at all." Without a good foil, no matter how fantastical the plot is, the text is still dry!"
The other party's evaluation made Lin Yi, a copyist, sound very uncomfortable. With a pitiful face, he asked for help: "Then can you ...... old age?"
Uncle Guan squinted his eyes and sent the sarcasm over: "Do your own thing." I'm so old, are you too embarrassed to speak? ”
Lin Yi had no choice but to give up. He suddenly remembered that it seemed that Huang Yi and Huang Daxia were born in history. It seems that after eating, it is not so easy to eat! The classic "Datang" is still left to Huang Daxia. If it really collapses, as a fan, he can't forgive himself!
Lin Yi's skills are not enough, and it is difficult to write historical themes, so he wants to turn to the city or fantasy. The feeling of failure was too uncomfortable, and this time he decided to go with the flow.
Touching his head, Lin Yi thought of Bruce Lee. It's been two years since he died, and he can still affect the epidemic, so he deserves to be a phenomenal figure!
If Jin Yong, Gu Long, and Liang Yusheng write about classical martial arts, then Bruce Lee's movies can be called urban martial arts. The peak of the former has passed, while the latter ......
In Lin Yi's mind, the image of Jackie Chan suddenly popped up! Shuanglong is in the city, and they are both chivalrous. But the routines are different, one is pretending to be forced to fight, and the other is comedy martial arts.
It can be seen that the theme of urban martial arts will be no problem for another 20 years!
Lin Yi chose a routine, opened the newspaper, turned on the TV, and began to look for inspiration.
In 1973, the Canadian Museum, precious artwork was stolen and has not been broken to this day. Lin Yi found his goal, and he decided to write about a thief.
