I found a cell phone from ten years ago.

Chapter 39 "Encounter" Luo Jiahui
After leaving the Normal University, Li Xu did not return to school, but went to Dacheng Famous Store.

He walked into Centennial Impression with ease and found an empty machine in the corner and sat down.

Maybe because he came to the Internet cafe too many times, he became more and more accustomed to the atmosphere of the Internet cafe and even felt like he was back home.

After opening the browser and logging into the Qidian writer backend, Li Xu first checked the data of "Mysterious".

The first order was 25572, the average order was 12657, and there were 2653 monthly tickets.

It currently ranks first in the new book monthly ticket list, and its ranking in the overall list has also risen from third to second.

"Fights Break Sphere" is still ranked first in the monthly ticket list, but the third place has become "The Evil Lord of Another World", and Fanqie's "Devouring the Stars" has dropped to fourth.

In the few days after the book was put on the shelves, a new leader appeared almost every day, and there were four updates at least. In addition to the additional updates for the leader, first order, monthly ticket, and reward, Li Xu updated eight or nine chapters every day, about 30,000 words.

The continuous release of new chapters has resulted in an average subscription increase of six to seven hundred per day, and the number of monthly tickets has also increased rapidly.

For novels on Qidian, the higher the average subscription, the more monthly votes you will get. To compete for the rankings and get monthly votes, you need to update more or more frequently.

Just like Fanqie's "Devouring the Starry Sky" has the highest average subscription, but he did not compete for the list this month, nor did he add many updates. He only updated twice a day and occasionally took leave, so currently he is only ranked fourth in monthly tickets.

Li Xu uploaded eight chapters in one breath. After completing today's update, he unplugged the USB drive, plugged in the USB shield, and logged into his online banking account.

However, just as he opened the paper gold trading interface, he felt someone patting his shoulder from behind. Turning around, he found that it was Luo Jiahui from Class 4.

She wore a dark blue lace dress that wrapped around her hips, revealing her beautiful figure and a pair of long, slender, white legs.

Seeing Li Xu's slightly puzzled look, Luo Jiahui raised the corners of her mouth slightly and said with a smile: "You don't know me, right?"

When she smiled, her eyes curved, giving people a very cunning feeling.

Li Xu looked her up and down and said half-jokingly, "Luo Jiahui, right? How could I not know the campus beauty?"

"Garden flower?"

Luo Jiahui was slightly stunned, then a smug look appeared on her face. She smiled and asked, "Do you boys all like to discuss which girl in school is prettier?"

This Luo Jiahui is quite narcissistic!

Li Xu glanced at her and said with a smile, "I didn't say that. It was our class life committee member who made the comment."

He "betrayed" Guan Jiayu without hesitation.

"Your class life committee member... Guan Jiayu?" Luo Jiahui curled her lips in disapproval when she mentioned Guan Jiayu.

"Do you have something to talk to me about?" Li Xu looked at her and asked.

"It's nothing. I just saw you surfing the Internet here, so I came over to say hello and get to know you." Luo Jiahui said with a smile.

Then, seemingly casually, she asked, "Do you often come to this internet cafe to surf the internet?"

"Yes, what's wrong?" Li Xu looked at her again.

"Nothing, I came here a couple of days ago, but I didn't seem to see you."

Luo Jiahui finished speaking and quickly changed the subject, "What are you doing?"

As she spoke, she leaned over and looked at the computer screen in front of Li Xu.

The distance between the two of them suddenly became very close, almost head to head. Li Xu could clearly smell the fragrance coming from Luo Jiahui and could even see the tiny hairs on her face.

"Is this... gold?" Luo Jiahui said in surprise as she looked at the paper gold trading interface.

"Aren't you writing a novel? Why are you speculating in gold?"

"Just for fun." Li Xu's eyes couldn't help but fall on her delicate profile and the whiteness of her neck. How could Luo Jiahui have such good skin? It was so white and tender, with almost no pores. It felt even better than Xiao Yu's skin.

However, Li Xu quickly looked away.

"Aren't you here to surf the Internet?"

The subtext of his words was to remind Luo Jiahui that she could leave.

However, Luo Jiahui seemed not to have heard it. She straightened up, looked at Li Xu and said with a smile:
"Why don't I just sit here? We can sit together and talk, and it won't be so boring."

As she spoke, she pulled out a chair and sat down in front of the empty machine next to Li Xu.

Seeing this, Li Xu stopped paying attention to her and turned his attention back to paper gold trading.

If Luo Jiahui wants to sit here, let her sit here. She can't disturb him anyway.

Now he no longer needs to go to a single room to write.

A few days ago, when Li Xu was playing with the Honor Magic6pro, he accidentally discovered a new function - the text on pictures with text in the album can be directly extracted.

If he had known that there was a function to convert pictures to text, he wouldn't have bothered typing it out by hand.

It is true that experience limits thinking.

At that time, some novel websites converted text pages into images to prevent theft, which led to Li Xu not even thinking about converting images into text.

However, the conversion is a bit troublesome. First, you have to screenshot the novel page by page into pictures, and then extract the text on the pictures page by page and copy them to the document.

Li Xu planned to buy a laptop computer after his royalties arrived in a few days, and then buy a bed curtain to install.

This way he could pretend to type and trade paper gold in the dormitory without having to go to the Internet cafe all the time.

The reason why he didn't install bed curtains before was mainly because the weather was still relatively hot at that time, and it would be too abnormal to install curtains on such a hot day.

Moreover, he always plays with his mobile phone after turning off the lights and going to bed. With the quilt and mosquito net covering him, he doesn't have to worry about being discovered by his roommates.

As for renting a house, not to mention that freshmen are not allowed to live off campus, even if it is allowed, Li Xu does not plan to do so.

Landlords usually have spare keys, and they would feel even more uneasy about leaving their phones in a rental house where others can enter at any time.

It would be better to carry your mobile phone with you at all times like now, so that you can feel more at ease.

When I have enough money, I can use it as a down payment to buy a house, then build a secret compartment in the room, hide my cell phone in the compartment, and take it out when I need it.

He had consulted a real estate agent and was told that as long as he could come up with the down payment, he could buy a house. It didn't matter if he didn't have a stable job, as long as he could keep a running income.

Li Xu sold half of his gold at a price of 302.13 yuan per gram. After deducting the handling fee, he made a net profit of 453 yuan.

He was not in a hurry to sell the remaining 40.37 grams of gold. He planned to wait until the market opened next Monday to see if the market would continue to rise.

The price of gold has been rising in the past few months. The average price in November was 11. By December, it will rise to 294.91, and there is still considerable room for growth.

After exiting the paper gold trading interface, Li Xu reinserted the USB drive and began to modify the saved draft.

At present, there are less than 100 chapters left to be revised. Once these chapters are revised, it will be completely finished.

In the future, you can directly convert images into text, so you don’t have to revise the manuscript so often, which saves time and effort.

However, just after revising half a chapter of the manuscript, Li Xu smelled a familiar fragrance, a faint sweet aroma mixed with a hint of cosmetics.

He knew without even looking that it must be Luo Jiahui sticking her head over again.
