Chapter 40: Borrowing Money
In just over ten minutes, Xiao Lan stewed the fish, added a good meal and set up the dishes, and he called for Xiao Changjue and Zhang Qiang to come to eat. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Uncle Zhang, try this fish I stewed, this is something you haven't eaten."
On the dining table, in addition to the boiled fish, there are also braised chicken feet, chicken legs, cold dishes, etc., which are very hearty.
Zhang Qiang looked a little staggered, this meal is estimated to cost twenty or thirty yuan, if it is placed in his house, if it is not a special day such as a festival, it will rarely be so rich.
And when he tasted a piece of fish made by Xiao Lan curiously, the surprise on his face could no longer be restrained.
"What kind of fish is this? How can it taste so good, sour and spicy, none of those restaurants are so delicious! Zhang Qiang couldn't help but ask, he has lived for more than forty years, and he really hasn't eaten it, and he hasn't even seen a fish that does this.
"Hehe, this is called hot and sour fish, it's a fish made with my own special sauerkraut and chili, and I can't eat it with more money outside," Xiao Lan snickered and explained softly.
After all, they are two worlds, and the differences in many aspects are easy to reflect, such as the atmosphere of the entertainment industry, such as some of the usual words and deeds, and also in terms of food.
It was also recently that Xiao Lan discovered that the world doesn't seem to pay much attention to food, the taste of the dishes is relatively ordinary, and there are delicious ones, but there are no so-called characteristics.
Delicious and characteristic dishes such as the so-called sauerkraut fish, spicy chicken, one-pot fresh, spring rolls, sweet and sour tenderloin, etc., cannot be seen in this world at all.
This made Xiao Lan, who has the attribute of a foodie, unacceptable, so he did it himself, sauerkraut, similar to Lao Gan Ma chili pepper and other vegetables or ingredients that cannot be bought in this world, he has made some by himself in the past few days.
Zhang Qiang sighed, it was really impressive, when he came to Xiao Lan's house during the Chinese New Year, Xiao Lan still looked like an ignorant rebellious boy.
"Okay, Brother Zhang, let's talk about business." Xiao Changjue coughed and led the topic to the point in a timely manner.
"Oh, yes, yes! That one...... Xiaolan, uncle heard your dad say that you wrote "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", right? Zhang Qiang was a little embarrassed to borrow money from his juniors, Zhang Qiang was a little embarrassed to speak, but when the words came to his mouth, they unnaturally turned to "Snow Mountain Flying Fox".
"En, that's right, Uncle Zhang, but you have to keep it a secret for me to write a book, if I let others know, I will definitely be annoyed to death." Xiao Lan said with a smile, in fact, he guessed that Zhang Qiang was coming for something, but Zhang Qiang didn't speak, and he didn't take the initiative to ask.
"Okay, I'll help you out." Xiao Changjue sighed, then looked at Xiao Lan, and said with a serious expression: "Lan'er, your aunt is sick and hospitalized, and now she urgently needs money for surgery, Dad knows that you have made a lot of money by writing books, so it's okay to lend Uncle Zhang 30,000 yuan, right?" You must remember that when you were sick in the past, Uncle Zhang was the only benefactor who lent money to your father to help you treat your illness. ”
"No, no, no...... In fact, as long as 20,000 yuan, Uncle Zhang can still take out the remaining 10,000 yuan. Hearing Xiao Changjue say that he would borrow 30,000 yuan, Zhang Qiang immediately explained in a hurry.
When he came, he didn't even think about borrowing too much, because he also knew that Xiao Changjue wouldn't have much money at all, and the 30,000 yuan was really beyond his imagination.
It turned out to be borrowing money, Xiao Lan thought to himself, so he said to Zhang Qiang with a smile: "Uncle Zhang, you are too outside, my life was saved because you borrowed money." Now that my aunt is sick, don't say I can take it out, but I can't take it out, I will also think of ways to help you raise enough money. Is 30,000 dollars enough? You must not be polite to your nephew, your nephew can't take out more here, and he can still take out 180,000 now. And also...... Dad, do you still need to ask me about this kind of thing, wouldn't it be good to give the money directly to Uncle Zhang, what if Aunt Li's illness is delayed? ”
Speaking of the back, Xiao Lan couldn't help but complain a little about Xiao Changjue, because he handed over the bank card with 100,000 yuan to Xiao Changjue for safekeeping, how good it would be for him to lend the money directly to Zhang Qiang for this kind of thing.
Although Zhang Qiang only saved the body in front of this body, no matter what, Zhang Qiang seemed to be kind to himself, otherwise he might not have the opportunity to be reborn this time, so since this is the case, Xiao Lan will definitely not be stingy.
"Huh? That's enough! 30,000 is enough! That's enough! Your aunt is not a particularly serious illness, 30,000 yuan is really enough! Zhang Qiang's eyes were full of surprise, and his words were not good.
These 30,000 yuan have been enough to make him troubled for almost a week, if it weren't for the fact that he was almost desperate and really desperate, how could he come to Xiao Changjue's house to borrow money with the idea of being a dead horse and a live horse doctor?
He knows better than anyone whether Xiao Changjue's family has any money, just to repay his eight thousand yuan, it will take three years to pay it back!
"Didn't I find out about this matter this afternoon, besides, it's also your own money, so it's not good if Dad doesn't explain it to you clearly." Xiao Chang said, he smiled gently, and he was not angry at all because of Xiao Lan's complaints, but liked his son more.
"Okay, I didn't say it casually, but the bank card was handed over to you, just let you use it, you don't have to ask me how to use it, just like me when it's gone." By the way, Uncle Zhang, I remember that my aunt was not in good health, why did she suddenly get sick and be hospitalized? Xiao Lan could only smile helplessly at his father's words, and finally had to pay attention to Zhang Qiang.
Because he knew from his memory that Zhang Qiang's wife Li Yun had always been an arrogant aunt, and her health was also very good, and she never seemed to have had any serious illness, so he asked curiously.
Hearing Xiao Lan's inquiry, Zhang Qiang couldn't help but sigh, and his eyes gradually lost from the previous excitement, and even became painful: "How should I say this...... Alas, didn't your aunt set up a stall in Guiyun Middle School to sell some snacks, she was unlucky last week, and was met by the chengguan, you also know that your aunt's temper has not been very good, so naturally there was a dispute with those chengguan, and she seemed to be kicked in the stomach by a young chengguan when fighting for a small cart, and then there was this incident. ”
"Is that because of this?" Xiao Lan was a little surprised, he didn't expect that this family's Huaxia would also have chengguan, and it seemed that its domineering nature and the world in his previous life did not seem to be much more than that.
"Brother Zhang, relax your mind, Sister Li will be fine, my family is not short of money now, you don't have to pay back the 30,000 yuan in a hurry." Xiao Changjue patted Zhang Qiang's shoulder and comforted softly.
Zhang Qiang's family is not very good, and now that this incident has happened, wouldn't it be even worse, thinking of this, Xiao Lan shook his head, and then asked: "Uncle Zhang, which hospital does Aunt Li live in?" I'll go see her tomorrow. ”
……
After dinner, Xiao Lan did not go to school for evening self-study, but returned to his room and prepared to start coding.
"Tomb of the Gods" is a novel of more than three million words, and if it is coded as soon as possible, readers will be comfortable reading it, and his popularity will grow faster.
And he also wants to complete "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" as soon as possible, because after "Snow Mountain Flying Fox" is written, the "Flying Fox Biography" he has been looking forward to can meet readers.
"Flying Fox Gaiden" has a lot of words, nearly 500,000 words of medium-length novels, and the sooner the manuscript is prepared, he will be more relaxed.
When he opened his laptop, Xiao Lan didn't start coding immediately, but habitually went to his original singing network, Weibo and other places first.
After two weeks of fermentation, the three ancient songs of the original singing network have completely demonstrated their power, and the popularity of these three songs has reached more than 18 million, and the users of the original singing network who pay attention to Xiao Lan have also reached more than 10 million!
This is a very terrifying growth figure, because Xiao Lan's song has only been released for less than two weeks! And he's a complete newcomer to the music industry!
On the message board, there are still messages of praise and admiration for Xiao Lan in large movies, but there are also more comments criticizing and satirizing Xiao Lan's songs.
"What kind of strange song is this, isn't it awkward to forcibly install our beautiful ancient poems?"
", I haven't understood the meaning of what is written on it at all, this literary and artistic pretending is too obvious, right?"
"What is the sound of heaven? I just think it's harsh when it sounds like it, okay? ”
It means that I don't understand what the singer is singing at all! What do you want to express! ”
……
With the promotion of these three songs, more and more people know and hear about them, and some controversies begin to slowly appear.
Although the style of the song is beautiful, the text is good, but after all, it is indeed too literary and artistic, there are so many Internet users in Huaxia, people who have not read books definitely occupy a lot of proportion, and they can still understand and understand ordinary pop songs, but Xiao Lan writes more profound lyrics in this kind of text, and they don't know it at all.
Of course, this is not the main thing, the main thing is that Xiao Lan's admirers praised these three songs too well, these people listened to them curiously, but found that they couldn't understand many meanings, didn't they have ideas in their hearts?
What's more, some people are more disgusted with this literary style, because they feel that it is too pretending, as if they are very tall.
But the most important thing is that someone secretly invited the water army to deliberately hack these three songs.
As for why it's black, this is, of course, because last week, Xiao Lan's "Falling Clouds" and "Returning to the Crane" were suddenly included in the daily recommendation list and weekly recommendation.
Every time the original singing network changes the recommended songs, it will send a message to the singer's backstage at noon the day before to inform the singer, so inadvertently, Xiao Lan has a grudge against the singers of the three songs who were squeezed off the recommended list!
