Tobias may have been drunk there at night and didn't come home all night, which made Shen Long a lot less troublesome, otherwise if he wanted to be violent to himself, Shen Long didn't dare to guarantee that he wouldn't break his legs.

When he woke up in the morning and had breakfast, Shen Long chose a set of clean and tidy clothes from Snape's pitiful clothes, and cleaned up his hair in the bathroom, making himself look a little more energetic, Snape's messy hair looked really bad.

"Irene, I'm going out, have you thought about what I told you yesterday?" Shen Long asked as he was leaving, Erin Prince's face was quite tangled.

Shen Long knew that such a big matter must be seriously considered, especially before he found a new way to make a living, Erin Prince was not so easy to make a decision, so he didn't rush and went out first.

Coming out of Spider Alley and changing the subway twice according to the map, Shen Long found his destination this time - the office building of Penguin Publishing Group in London.

To be honest, for an eleven-year-old child living in the bottom society, there are indeed not many good ways to make money, go to work and there must be no company to collect, go to the football club to play, the current star income is not high, and the eleven years old is still a long time away from entering the first team, and it will affect the study at Hogwarts.

In contrast, copying books is relatively free, and although it is surprising for an eleven-year-old to write a book, it is not impossible, and it is also conducive to getting Erin Prince out of that unhappy family.

Shen Long looked at his new image at the glass of the door of Penguin Press, nodded with satisfaction, pushed the door and walked in, came to the front desk, stood on tiptoe and said to the receptionist, "Beautiful lady, can you tell me where the editor-in-chief's office is?" ”

"Oh, what a cute little angel!" Shen Long's cuteness played a role, and the new image and charm bonus made her win the favor of the girl at the front desk at first sight, she looked at Shen Long with a smile, "Call me Mary, what are you looking for the editor-in-chief?" Do you want the writer's autograph? I'll definitely help you if I can do it. ”

Penguin Publishing Group publishes mostly non-works, as well as children's books, so it's not uncommon for children to come to the office building to ask for an author's autograph.

"You're such a kind lady, but I'm not here to ask for an autograph." Shen Long sighed in his heart, thinking that I was also the godfather of the underworld and the boss of a warlord in one place, but I didn't expect that now I would have to rely on selling cuteness for a living, which is really sad.

Under Mary's curious gaze, Shen Long took out a stack of manuscript paper from his bag and handed it to her, which he had prepared before entering this world, Shen Long showed an innocent smile unique to a child, "This is what I wrote myself, can you let the editor-in-chief take a look?" ”

Mary exchanged glances with the front desk girl next to her, today is really interesting, there are children to submit to the company! Mary instinctively refused, what good story could a child of this age write?

But under Shen Long's gaze, she really couldn't say such a thing, anyway, she wasn't too nervous about work now, so it was better to play with him for a while, so Mary took Shen Long to the reception area and poured him a glass of juice, "Cute little writer, can you tell me your name?" ”

"Greetings Severus Snape!" Shen Long gave Mary a gentlemanly salute before sitting down, which deepened Mary's favor.

The manuscript doesn't look very thick, it seems that I can take a look at it first, Mary opened the manuscript, the font on it was quite immature, but it was very neat, and it was very attentive at first glance.

On the first page is the title of the book - The Lion King, and below is the author's name Severus Snape, a fairy tale written by a child? Mary looked at it, and the sight was fascinating.

Shen Long thought about how to make money before entering this world, and thought about what books to copy, for a child, there is no better choice than a fairy tale, the plot of "The Lion King" is simple, full of childlike fun, and the setting of the plot refers to Shakespeare's classic book "The Prince's Revenge", so it is perfect for an English child to copy this.

Shen Long drank the juice unhurriedly, and it was not until the juice was drunk that Mary withdrew her gaze from the manuscript paper and looked at Shen Long in surprise, "Seaver, is this really what you wrote?" ”

Although she is not an editor, she has been working at Penguin for a long time, and she can learn something by touching on the bypass, and she thinks that this book is better than most of the popular children's books in the publishing house today.

"Yes, when I read Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book, I wanted to write a story about animals." Shen Long nodded and said, "The Jungle Book" was also made into an animated film and a live-action movie by Disney in the future, renamed "Fantasy Forest", and now it is a well-known children's work in the United Kingdom, and the two works have a little in common.

"I read about the African savannah, lions, baboons, warthogs in children's pictorials, and I thought of this story." Shen Long told Mary about his creation.

Mary asked a few more questions, and Shen Long answered them fluently, and then Mary believed it, "You rest here for a while, and I'll go find someone to help you take a look, maybe it can really be published!" ”

She refilled Shen Long with a glass of juice, took some candy and biscuits, and then hurried to the editing room, found a children's book reviewer she was familiar with, did not disclose Shen Long's age for the time being, and handed the manuscript to him, "Charlie, I just received the submission, the author is still waiting outside, you can help me take a look!" ”

"It seems that this author must be a handsome young man, or our Mary would never be in such a hurry!" Charlie made a joke and flipped through it.

A handsome lad indeed, if only he were ten years older, Mary waited quietly, and smiled at the look of surprise on Charlie's face.

"The writing is a bit immature, and the choice of words and sentences is far from "The Jungle Book", but it is still a good work and has great publication value." After reading it, Charlie closed the manuscript and thought about it for a while.

"Kipling is a Nobel laureate in literature!" Mary muttered, but comparing this work to the work of a Nobel laureate is enough to prove a lot.

"Where is Mr. Snape?" I'm going out and talking to him! "It's a very commercially valuable film, and it must be signed, Charlie made an accurate judgment.

"I'll take you there, by the way, Charlie, don't be surprised to see him!"
