Zhang Kenan saw that it was Gao Jialin, exchanged a few words, suddenly remembered something, and became very enthusiastic.

"Garin, this is your fiancée, Comrade Liu Qiaozhen! Sure enough, she is a talented woman, and she is a good couple. Where are you two going? ”

"Oh, I haven't seen you for a few days, you're all out of the way. The two of us had just picked up our parcels at the post office, visited a few more small courtyards, and were now ready to go to dinner. Gogarin replied.

"Eat? Okay, it just so happens that I'm going to dinner too, let's go together, I'm in for a treat! Zhang Kenan was very enthusiastic, even beyond Gao Jialin's expectations.

The three of them found a restaurant and sat down, Zhang Kenan picked up the demeanor of a landlord, and ordered several dishes in a hurry, until Gao Jialin repeatedly stopped him.

While the three of them were waiting for the dishes, Zhang Kenan asked again: "By the way, Garin, has your article published in Contemporary" magazine been published?" ”

Gao Garin smiled slightly, opened the package in his hand, and inside was a sample issue of "Contemporary".

"You said it was a coincidence, it just came out, and I just received a sample issue."

"Great, congratulations, this is a great event!" Zhang Kenan congratulated him repeatedly, took the magazine, found the article signed by Gao Jialin, and began to read it.

After reading for a while, the dish came up, and Zhang Kenan was afraid that he would stain the book, so he hurriedly returned it to Gao Jialin.

"Our unit also subscribes to this magazine, and I will come back to read your masterpiece. I just read the beginning, but I can already see that your writing is brilliant and wonderful! ”

Gao Jialin took the magazine and handed it to Liu Qiaozhen, who carefully put it away. But Van Gogarin's commemorative things were carefully put away by Liu Qiaozhen. If it was Gogarin, it would have been thrown away a long time ago.

Gao Garin joked casually, "Kenan, I haven't seen you for many days, your literary talent has grown a lot, and the exits are all idioms, one after another!" ”

"Alas! Don't mention this, you mention that I'm full of bitterness! Zhang Kenan suddenly made a sad face, "You don't know!" Yaping now forces me to study every day and assigns me homework every day. Look, what is this? ”

Gogarin took it and took a look, good fellow, Dante's Divine Comedy!

"This is the homework that Yaping assigned to me this time, after reading it, I have to write 3,000 words of after-reading feelings!"

"Haha!" Gogarin couldn't help but burst out laughing. Even Liu Qiaozhen pursed her lips and smiled.

"What are you laughing at! Schadenfreude! It's still a brother, it's not interesting at all! Zhang Kenan was a little angry.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, don't laugh!" Gogarin hurriedly apologized, "I said Kenan, you didn't even think about resisting?" ”

"Oh, don't mention it!" Zhang Kenan was immediately angry, "If I'm a little lazy, Yaping will sue her mother, and her mother will tell my mother, and then I will be beaten, there is no way!" ”

"Yaping is so powerful? Got both parents done! Gogarin was a little surprised.

"Yaping told her mother that it was a test for me, and my mother said that studying is a good thing, and people urge you to study, because they can afford you!" Zhang Kenan looked helpless.

"Haha!" Gao Jialin laughed twice, and when he saw that Zhang Kenan's face was wrong, he hurriedly stopped.

"But then again, I think both of you parents have a point. Yaping, she loves literature, and you know that if you don't know anything about literature, if you are together in the future and have no common language, there will inevitably be estrangement and frequent quarrels. To be honest, Yaping is also thinking about your common life in the future! ”

Gao Jialin's words suddenly made Zhang Kenan happy, according to what he said, he has entered Huang Yaping's long-term plan, and it seems that his licking dog will soon turn positive.

"Garin, you still think it through. As soon as you say that, I understand. But there's another thing for now, and I have to trouble you. If it's a brother, help me. Zhang Kenan licked his face and handed over the book of Dante's poems, "You are a great writer, you can write this thing easily, and I will help draft it after reading it." ”

"Let me help you cheat?" Gogarin smiled and took the book of poems, "It's not impossible, but what's in it for me?" ”

"The benefits? We are brothers, what benefits do we want! Zhang Kenan just put it on his sleeve, "By the way, aren't you looking for a yard, who are you looking for?" ”

"Both of us! We plan to live in the county seat after marriage, Gaojia Village is too noisy, and there is no electricity, so it is inconvenient to engage in creation. By the way, Kenan, do you have anything to introduce? Gogarin asked casually.

"Really!" Zhang Kenan slapped his thigh, "You said it's a coincidence!" It just so happened that a relative had a small yard to rent. Let's eat first, and I'll take you to see it after dinner. ”

Gao Jialin was very happy, and it was the best to have Zhang Kenan, a local snake, to help.

Of course, after eating, before going to see the house, Gao Jialin took out the manuscript paper in Zhang Kenan's expectant eyes, and with a wave, a feeling after reading was born.

Zhang Kenan thanked him and took Gao Jialin to his relative's small courtyard.

This small courtyard is in the northernmost part of the county, which is about to go beyond the county seat and is quite far from the countryside. Although the courtyard is slightly dilapidated, it is quiet and tidy, with a main hall and two side rooms. There is a small vegetable patch in front of the door, and the house has electricity and running water. There is a small toilet, which is also a water toilet, which can directly flush sewage into the river through the sewage pipe, which can be said to be readily available.

Gao Jialin took a fancy to it at a glance, he set his eyes on Liu Qiaozhen, and the other party nodded with satisfaction. Alright, that's it.

With Zhang Kenan's help, the rent is naturally not expensive. 50 yuan a year, even the deposit is confiscated. Gogarin immediately paid for a year, took the key, and this was his new home.

After Zhang Kenan left, Gao Jialin held Liu Qiaozhen's slender hand tightly, his mood was agitated, he looked at Liu Qiaozhen, and spit out, "Qiaozhen, this will be our home from now on!" ”

Liu Qiaozhen let out a heavy "um", her eyes were full of joy.

On that day, Gao Garin mailed "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" to "Juvenile Literature and Art" magazine, and according to the contact information given by the editor-in-chief of "Contemporary" Zhu, he called Qian Wuxin, the editor-in-chief of "Juvenile Literature and Art", and reported to him that his novel had been revised and had just been sent.

Since this day, the editor-in-chief of "Juvenile Literature and Art" Qian has been anxiously waiting for this novel. Long before Gao Jialin called, Editor-in-Chief Zhu had already called him. On the phone, he blew this novel to the fullest, and made a guarantee that the editor-in-chief Qian must be ecstatic after reading it.

Editor-in-chief Qian and editor-in-chief Zhu have been friends for many years and were college classmates that year. He knows very well that the other party is not a person who likes to brag and exaggerate. A novel that can make the other party praise it so much must be extraordinary.

Unlike orthodox literary journals such as People's Literature, Contemporary, and Poetry Magazine, Juvenile Literature and Art has been plagued by a lack of high-quality manuscripts since its republication.

For those orthodox literary journals, the daily submissions have to be pulled by a pallet cart, and the editors only need to fish for pearls in a haystack and constantly screen them.

The submissions of "Juvenile Literature and Art" are completely different, and there are relatively few people in the country who are good at writing children's literature. After 10 years of catastrophe, there are even fewer who can continue to work hard. The new generation of young writers are all aiming at scar novels and main theme novels, and there are very few who are willing to write juvenile literature. Even if there are a few people who are willing to write, the quality of the manuscript is quite poor.

Therefore, a very important task for the editor of "Juvenile Literature and Art" is to contact the writers, keep urging the manuscript, and when necessary, he has to write some content to fill the hole. This is why Editor-in-Chief Qian is so excited and excited when he hears that there is an excellent long-form juvenile literature.

As soon as Gogarin's novel "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" was delivered by the postman, he was immediately spotted by the sharp-eyed trainee editor's assistant, who remembered the instructions of the editor and picked up the package and rushed to his office.

"Editor-in-Chief Qian, the novel you were waiting for has been sent!"

Editor-in-chief Qian was watching the scenery by the window when the door was suddenly opened. He turned his head to see the assistant come in, and said the call excitedly.

Editor-in-chief Qian was overjoyed, "Great, you give it to me, I'll watch it now!" Look at how amazing this novel is, it actually makes Lao Zhu boast like this. ”

Editor-in-chief Qian picked up the package, tore open the package, opened the envelope, and presented a thick and neat pile of manuscript paper in front of him.

"Good guy, that's 200,000 words!" Editor-in-chief Qian is also an old editor-in-chief, and if you touch the thickness, you will know how many words there are. The more words he counted, the happier he became. 200,000 words is enough for a year of serialization.

Editor-in-Chief Qian spread out the manuscript paper, picked it up, chose a comfortable position, leaned back in the chair, and began to read it seriously.

"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, depending on the name, is still a Western fantasy novel. It's a subject that very few people write about. There's not much basis in reality for this thing, it's all imagination! ”

Editor-in-chief Qian saw it this and was immediately immersed in it. The more he looked, the more fascinated he became, and the more he watched, the more energetic he became. I even forgot that I was an editor-in-chief, forgot to review the manuscript, and just thought of myself as a reader, immersed in the fantastic and wonderful magical world, and followed the protagonist to adventure and charge together!

After the editor-in-chief Qian finished reading the last page, he was relieved in amazement. The rumbling stomach suddenly brought him into reality.

"Why are you so hungry, it's time to finish lunch!" Editor-in-Chief Qian raised his arm to look at his watch, and at this glance he realized that it was not only time for lunch, but also for lunch.

Editor-in-Chief Qian smiled self-deprecatingly, touched some food in the cabinet, cushioned it, and coaxed his stomach for the time being. Then he paced around the room, and his heart was excited. He was now finally able to think about the novel as an editor-in-chief.

Gogarin's novel is clearly not standalone, and should only be the beginning of a huge novel. This guy is really bold, he dares to open such a huge magic world for construction, it is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.
