It was already early in the morning when the old man put down his pen.

May Xiaoman, it is the second time when Limu finished painting the wall. On Friday, Riki was still on leave, and he needed to rest and prepare for a while. On the third Saturday of the second half of this month, that is, tomorrow, the semi-final of the Olympiad will be held at Tianmang Primary School. The competition brought together all the elementary school students in Nanhua City who passed the preliminary round.

Unlike the qualifiers of the preliminary round, the main purpose of the semi-finals is not to make money. Its task is mainly to screen the top national players who will eventually participate in the national competition, and cannot let the teachers of each school invigilate the examination on their behalf, so the students participating in the city will be arranged in a unified examination room.

It may be a bit impolite to say this - if the people who sat in the preliminary arena were all miscellaneous fish, then the students who could sit in the semi-final examination room and compete were the real 5% supernormal students, or modern talents.

Everyone has to go to school in compulsory education, even if only a small part participates in the Olympiad, which is not comparable to the ancient number of scholars. Compare the modern population of 6 billion with the tens of millions of people in ancient times. In terms of the selection base of the primary school students who passed the qualifying competition in the city, every student who participated in the semi-finals was already on par with the Xiucai of the ancient township examination.

CMO, a nationwide event with an official surname, is naturally valued by various schools. If the students get the medals back for the school, if the school can build a medal showroom, then the school's face will be so bright!

Pingnan Primary School has such a showroom, but it is not a real medal room, it is a small space divided into the school's small library. On the glass windows on the walls of the library, there are many awards, such as trophies for swimming competitions, medals for primary school long-distance running, and certificates for the second prize in the National Mathematics Olympiad. Although there are many awards, most of them are not first prizes.

If you ask which school has a wide showroom with a large number of first prize winners, it is probably the city's premier Tianmang Primary School.

Tianmang Primary School is a famous and aristocratic primary school in Nanhua, located at the intersection of education leading to art colleges. Most of the parents of the students are the children of officials, civil servants and entrepreneurs. Of course, there are also small entrepreneurs who fish in troubled waters, and they may only have three or four employees under their hands. Limu's aunt and uncle, who used to set up a stall, were such small entrepreneurs, who spent 30,000 or 40,000 yuan to invite guests to drink, and only after some dotting did they let their daughter enter Tianmang Primary School.

But it is undeniable that when later generations pass by the gate of that school, Riki can always catch a few blonde students on the football field. Although most students walk to and from school, the proportion of students who are picked up and dropped off by car is higher than that of other schools. If Li Xiuli can make Mr. Zhang treat Limu differently when she drives a Santana, then the Mercedes-Benz BMW here is probably enough to scare her eyes down.

Isn't that a school...... The cousin, who is two years younger than Limu, was arranged inside, she is the only close relative of Limu in the Limu family, and she is not very good at studying, and she belongs to a more sunny type.

But whenever she talks about the experience of studying in Tianmang Primary School, she always becomes gloomy. In terms of studying, others ask for tutors, but she can't afford it, so she can only be at the middle and lower level of the class; In terms of family background, her grandfather was just an excellent technician, her grandmother was only a sharp-mouthed woman in an urban village, and her parents were small merchants from stalls......

"Nima, can you imagine how I'm going to live in there!?"

Because she didn't have the courage to question her parents when she grew up, this girl often vented her grievances loudly with him.

If she had enrolled in Pingnan Elementary School at that time, she would definitely have had a rather happy experience, at least compared to Pingnan's students, and even relative to Limu, she was a rich second generation, and she was also covered by her eldest brother Limu in Pingnan. Every day when you go to and from school, invite your classmates to eat popsicle offal, and it will not be difficult to get together to eat, drink and have fun.

The reality is that Aunt Limu and her uncle sent her to Tianmang Primary School, and there is no random selling at the door of this elementary school. The students there don't eat popsicles, but the Häagen-Dazs store in this era has not yet opened at the school gate, and even if Häagen-Dazs opens, she will not be able to invite customers, at most she can only eat freshly squeezed juice.

She was originally a white crane in the flock, but she was cruelly thrown into the phoenix pile, roasted to the ground under their scorching body temperature, and finally failed to evolve into a phoenix.

Now that I think about it, my aunt and uncle should have two starting points-

First of all, it must be for the sake of her daughter's future that she was sent to a famous primary school; Secondly, probably out of the "businessman's thinking", they need to borrow their daughter to jump from one circle to another. After 12 years of divorce, they were both promoted to multi-millionaire status, and easily sent their daughter to an aristocratic college in Yenching to study German...... Or rather, he dug another hole for his daughter.

It stands to reason that primary and junior high schools should be distributed according to geography, but this rule does not seem to work for the parents of Tianmang Primary School, who only need to ask someone to change the location of their household registration to help their children enroll in school. In addition to the place of household registration, if you want to enter Tianmang Primary School, you also need a certain "process".

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the green garden on the roof of the Lu family's building.

"Aren't you going to paint this afternoon?" The woman in the narrow skirt standing by the grape trellis asked.

She lifted her glasses and stared at the boss, as if she had entered secretary mode, urging Limu to draw a comic with a serious expression.

"Let's rest for half a day, I'm going to compete with those guys tomorrow, it's not okay if my spirit is not good." Limu lay lazily on a chaise longue like a dead fish, and spoke in a tone like an incompetent uncle.

"Boss Pear, with all due respect, according to your physical condition, sleeping 10 hours a day can nourish your spirits. If you don't exercise or think right now, you won't feel sleepy at all when you go to bed at night, and doing so will affect your performance tomorrow. The woman in the narrow skirt tried to cheer him up.

Since becoming his secretary and confessing that she is the mysterious author of "Steel", she already knows where Riki's main income comes from, and she naturally spares no effort to urge Riki to draw manga. In the "Financial Planner Practice Manual" and "Family Financial Planner" that she bought, it is mentioned that "try to encourage employers to develop in a favorable direction." ”

It is good for the financial planner to urge the employer to get the capital quickly and in the right way. However, she didn't know that Riki's most efficient painting was during the use of "video projection", and the efficiency of the rest of the time was only 20% compared to it, so it was better to think about the scripts of other manga while she was free.

Thanks to Mo's efforts, a 21 percent stake in Matriten Penguin has been acquired, and she welcomed the generous shareholder who said he would not interfere in any of the company's affairs.

All Riki has to do is draw more comics, and while these IT companies are still in their infancy, every promising company will step in. He doesn't know much about energy, oil, machinery, etc., but he naturally knows which IT companies are the most promising after working as an IT person for a while.

As for why Limu is on the roof of Lu's house, it is because Limu's studio is "too small". Although he was fast at line drawing, he had to catch up with the work of attaching some mesh paper. Mo Moxin and Da Shengnan often need to make cameos as his comic assistants, so Riki's studio (small bedroom) is too cramped anyway.

Therefore, the round table on the roof of the Lu family became a working table for three people.

…… For Limu, who is worth millions of dollars, hired a bodyguard and a secretary, and Limu, who knows the inside story, asked his family to open the door to him, basically to the extent that the prospective son-in-law has a key.

Anyway, no one came up to the top of the building outside of the weekend, and Li Yishu was too lazy to take care of her husband's hanging garden, and the two old people who stayed at home would not climb to such a high place on the roof.

Truth be told, the scenery is pleasant, and the refreshments are a great treat.

The lush vines block most of the sun, and the warm spring air is inconspicuous. Sitting among the green pots, you can really feel the breath of nature, and occasionally accompanied by the fragrance of moon flowers. As you look along the embankment, you will see the murmuring surface of the river.

"I don't think you have a tendency to be a workaholic, so you won't be like Ah Nan, right?" Indifferent to Mo Moxin's words, Riki mouthed at Katsuo Nunu on the side.

Standing in the sun, the big black man with sandbags strapped to his hands and feet, and his hands and feet were holding two huge dumbbells and throwing quick punches. Seeing her sweating like rain, Limu only felt that her mouth was dry, and she picked up a jar of iced coconut milk and took a sip.

"Isn't this what you want her to do," Mo Moxin is indeed not a workaholic, she took a plastic chair and sat opposite Limu, and also opened a can of coconut milk and said: "Didn't you ask me to bring her back the dumbbells and sandbags." ”

"That's what he chose, you bought it, I didn't buy it, and I didn't ask her to practice all the time."

"Qubble." She only commented on Rimu's irresponsible statement, picked up a copy of the "Financial Planner Practice Manual" and pulled out a sticky note, and continued her unfinished reading.

When you are busy, you will be very busy, and you have to run there to get a loan from the bank. When you are free, you can be very idle, just like a waiter, after all, the object of service is only the boss. She could feel that Riki was in a state of anxiety today, thinking that it was the pressure caused by tomorrow's Olympiad rematch, and she didn't persuade Riki to continue drawing comics.

As everyone knows, what Riki is worried about is the "Mind Wall Painting" task, which has not been confirmed to be completed until now. He only keeps reassuring himself that "understanding the artistic conception" and "gaining recognition" are different concepts, and the time they take is also different, and it may take some time for the viewer to understand the artistic conception in the painting.

- Isn't it true that it takes time to understand words......

Limu slumped on the chaise longue and looked at the sunlight leaking from the vines, and unconsciously wandered out of the world—

When Yu Yi was a child, he could open his eyes and say......
