Chapter 17: Late Night Canteen
Regarding the huge controversy caused by "The Last Bullet Left for Me" on the Internet, Li Jie doesn't care, whether he likes it or not, he doesn't force it.
After all, in an environment where the Internet is not sound, it is inconceivable if a writer's lifelong writing has been in praise and has not been controversial.
There has never been an impartial reader, it is human beings who have opinions and emotional tendencies.
It is normal to have a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people, with different tastes and different evaluations.
But if there is controversy, it shows that the book has controversial value, at least not in ordinary Xiaobaiwen.
"The Last Bullet Left for Me" was controversial even in the previous life on Earth, but the more controversial it is, the more popular the book becomes......
In the past two days, in addition to the stable update of "Bullet", Li Jie spent all the rest of his time looking for stores.
That's right, Li Jie wants to open a gourmet restaurant, similar to the feeling of a late-night canteen.
As a killer in his previous life, his favorite thing in his spare time was food, and the healing comic "Late Night Canteen" serialized by Yoro Abe in the magazine back then has influenced a generation, including Li Jie.
There is no big fish and meat, all simple home-cooked side dishes, no great sorrow and joy, but the breath of fireworks in the authentic world.
In this late-night cafeteria, there are warm stories staged every night: a middle-aged uncle with a fierce face, a popular singer with an ill-fated face, a leading brother with a cold appearance, and a stage girl who is drunk and dreaming of death......
The special style and nostalgic taste attracted a lot of guests. Everyone drank wine, ate their favorite food, unloaded the fatigue of the day, talked about interesting things they encountered, or tasted sorrow alone.
In the aroma of food, in the unique silence of the late night and the warmth of the cafeteria, a story full of human touch is told. There are sorrows and joys, which are secretly combined with the ups and downs of food. All the flavors of life are all in this Quartet canteen.
These warm and touching stories of the city are staged in a canteen that has been open since late at night in the alleys of the metropolis, and each story is accompanied by simple and delicious home-cooked food, sometimes warm and sometimes melancholy, not only exuding the aroma of food, but also filled with the most simple human touch, which always makes people look at tears.
Li Jie likes the slow-paced life, the little people who walk into the store. Despite the mundane things and their own troubles, only in the late night cafeteria will they unload their defenses and eat their favorite food to comfort their lonely hearts.
In the same way, the customers in those shops respect each other, do not snoop or laugh, give care and advice to strangers, and the delicious souls will always meet and know each other in one place.
The food itself satisfies the enjoyment of the taste buds and the needs of the body, and from another point of view, food is an extension of emotions, which can be love and affection.
Especially after having Xi'er, Li Jie likes this rare family affection the most, and he wants to make all the delicacies in the world for Xi'er to eat.
As for the start-up capital for opening the store, Li Jie is not worried at all, after all, "Bullet" has become popular, and he will receive the manuscript fee in a few days.
After renting a car, Li Jie spent two days walking around the neighborhood, and finally fell in love with a shop that was about to be transferred near the university town.
The shop is actually a bit remote and a bit desolate.
Although it is located at the intersection of three universities, it is far from the city center, and it is a bit far from the dormitory area, except for some students who come to class, the rest are men and women dating in the nearby park.
However, Li Jie also likes its quiet and remote place.
The city is lit up at night, and in an inconspicuous corner of the city, a late-night canteen full of warmth is quietly opened.....
Why do you want to be so busy? He doesn't like to open a late-night cafeteria that he can't even keep busy.
The best-case scenario is a dozen or so guests a day, three or two regulars, listening to music while waiting for someone to forage for food late at night.
As for whether he makes money or not, he doesn't care, some people in this world will do something they like, don't make much money or even be poor, the key is that Li Jie is willing.
Therefore, whether it is feasible or not depends on your values, efforts to create conditions, chance, and living conditions.
......
The owner is a retired university professor, and he didn't open this bookstore with any intention of making money, but he couldn't do without the students.
As for why he transferred it, it was very simple, the old professor's health was getting worse and worse in the past two years, and with the pleading of his grandchildren, he also had a plan to live in the past.
After Li Jie expressed his intentions, the old man didn't think much about it, and agreed on the spot.
The rent is the lowest price in the market, an attic of more than 150 square meters, and the rent for three years is only more than 400,000 yuan, and Li Jie is not required to pay it off at one time, as long as the deposit can be brought after half a month, the store is Li Jie's.
After saying goodbye to the old professor, Li Jie returned home and opened the author's backstage, ready to upload today's chapter.

"More than 80,000 collections, what's the situation? I remember that yesterday it was just more than 30,000 collections, and now how can it directly be more than 80,000 collections, and the collection has risen by more than 50,000 in one day, is it my eyes spent?"
Li Jie wiped his eyes and continued to look at it, and found that the data had changed again, and in the few seconds he wiped his eyes, the collection had risen by more than several hundred.
What speed is this, the speed against the sky!
"Is the website data wrong?" Suddenly, Li Jie's head flashed, and another possibility came to mind.
After refreshing the page, the collection did not decrease, but increased.
Opening the work, a series of anti-heaven data shocked his eyes.
The military channel is the first in weekly clicks, the first in the recommendation list, the first in member clicks, and the first in favorites......
The data of more than 300,000 words of fiction is definitely not good in terms of creation, but you must know that "Bullet" is a military novel after all, which can be described as the unpopular among the unpopular, and it is very unfortunate to be able to obtain this data.
This is not the end, what really stunned Li Jie is still in the background.
looked down slowly, and saw that the book review area was red-
"The sky is full of flowers, and the people who are moved by the tears are gone, and the talents of the gentleman deserve this reward. The eight great families rewarded 100,000 coins, don't say anything, "The Last Bullet Left for Me" is too classic, just rush to this title to be rewarded. ”
"Hit the festival and admire, and the case was raised, but this reward is not enough to express my meaning. Qixian Li Bai contacted the reward of 100,000 coins, and the sadness was reversed, and the author cried three times......
The bottom of the entire book review is full of red, Rao is Li Jie is well-informed, and his heart is slightly moved at the moment.
Looking at the list of book friends and fans, the top 50 have all been occupied by the alliance leader, and if you want to become the alliance leader, you have to spend at least 1,000 yuan on a book.
One can imagine how many readers of "The Last Lesson Bullet Left Me".
Li Jie uploaded the chapter, and was about to turn off the computer, when suddenly, the station letter rang.
