Genshin Impact: Liyue's Strongest Thousand Rock Army

In the end, Su Ping kept the money. The reason was simple and ridiculous, but it made sense.

Because Su Ping had a serious expression on his face, and said solemnly: "Leave this money with you. When I get old enough, use it to marry me a wife!"

When these words came out, Aunt Zhang and Xiao Cui were at a loss as to what to do so they helped to put it away first, to avoid it being brought up about dowry and old-age support later, which would have been even more troublesome.

After all, Su Ping, a businessman, is more eloquent and shameless, and can even say such unreliable words.

Let alone getting married, he doesn't even have a woman he likes or a woman who likes him. If no one intervenes in his future marriage and doesn't introduce a few to him, it would probably be difficult.

There is still a long way to go to get married and have children. The important thing right now is to make money to support life. The store needs to be open tomorrow, so he has to go back first.

After that day, all the legal persons who shared the accounts of Su Ping's shop were finally contacted, and money was sent to the northern housing area of ​​Liyue Port every month.

The people who lived there, apart from the original residents of the village, only knew that at the end of every month a young man would bring some money to the mother and daughter. As for other things, no one bothered to ask.

Time flies, and it is almost the end of October in the blink of an eye. Su Ping has been living in Liyue Harbor for two months, but there are still some things that need to be done.

For example, he was completely unprepared for the upcoming meeting; he had only written one volume of his new book and had not started writing due to various reasons; and he had never read any of the works of Nan Zhangsheng, another writer who was going to co-host the event.

This meeting, of course, cannot be just a simple meeting. There will definitely be many newspapers watching it, ready to get first-hand information and become famous overnight.

Both of them are popular writers. Although Su Ping's book has not been updated for almost half a year, there are still people reading it. Needless to say, Nan Zhangsheng has been performing steadily and has never missed an update.

Imagine if someone asks, "What do you think of Nan Zhangsheng, another popular writer? What are his works like?"

How should he answer? Should he say he had never read it, or did he make it up? The next day's headlines would probably say that the writers looked down on each other, and Su Ping bluntly said he had never read Nan Zhangsheng's works.

It’s scary to think about what kind of criticism there will be and what a big storm it will cause. Although it is said that a man of integrity fears no crooked shadow, but when too many people criticize him, integrity will become evil.

It is one thing that he is not afraid of being scolded, but he does not want to be scolded because of his own reasons. This will also make him seem like he does not value friendship and is likely to hurt people's feelings.

It's not that he didn't want to read it, but since he started writing the book, he had very little free time every day. Even if he did, he was too tired to read it.

But things are different now. He runs a shop from 8 am to 7 pm and does not need to worry about inventory. With less work to do, he naturally has more time.

So, for the sake of your own reputation abroad, you can buy some books, read them, broaden your horizons, and also take a look at people's current literary tastes. It seems like a good idea to kill two birds with one stone.

Su Ping saw off the last customer, then closed the small shop here and went back to the big shop over there to have dinner.

On the second floor of the grocery store, there was a table of food and a table of people sitting next to it. The square table was meant to seat five people, which meant that it was impossible for each person to sit on one side.

But two months have passed and no one has any objections anymore. After all, they are the partners that Ningguang found. Baiwen is gentle and capable, Baishi is lively and optimistic, and even Baixiao, who was originally a little resistant, has let go of his prejudice.

Because in the past two months, she also discovered the likable and interesting side of this young man. Besides, it was not a very serious problem. It was just that the girl suddenly felt it from the bottom of her heart. After the passage of time and the proof of facts, it was impossible not to change.

She is not an unreasonable person. Maybe she is a little unreasonable, but she can distinguish right from wrong and know who is good and who is bad. For a girl of this age, this is enough.

The meal, or rather, there were five bowls filled with fried rice noodles from a restaurant outside. The bowls were large sea bowls and the rice noodles were fried fish noodles.

The taste is golden, the fish is fresh and fragrant, and the rice noodles are soft and glutinous. However, you will feel thirsty easily if you eat too much, so you need to prepare some soup and drinks, such as the scallion tofu soup on the table. Other than that, it is indeed a very good delicacy.

Mealtime is always a time when people tend to open up and talk, and this is true for everyone else, and the five people in the grocery store are no exception.

Although there is an old saying: Don't talk while eating and don't talk while sleeping, there are also unwritten rules: business meals, family laughter and conversation, and friends chatting over tea and meals.

Su Ping finished half of his bowl of rice noodles. Seeing that the four women had no intention of talking anymore, he reported today's income and asked for leave.

"Ms. Ningguang, I have a reader meeting the day after tomorrow and I won't be able to look after the shop that day. Can you send someone to help look after it? I'll get up early and make the pastries."

"alright."

She had known for a long time that this partner was a writer and quite famous, so she was not surprised at this moment. After all, with fame, more activities would come to her naturally.

The matter of asking for leave came to an end, but the topic did not end there. The smiling girl Bai Shi smiled and said, "Su Ping, do you know how to make your novel more popular and have more people read it?"

Su Ping knew, but he didn't know either, so he said slowly: "Improve writing skills, investigate readers, and enrich the plot?"

"No, no, no, these are too general. You've already written a book, don't you know yet?" Bai Shi's words were vague, leaving people confused.

However, after living here for two months, Su Ping knew a little about the other party's reading habits, so he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there a missing love line?"

"Correct!" Bai Shi said, snapping his fingers in a clear and pleasant voice, "Just imagine, a young man who has suffered a lot in the past and is still struggling meets a beautiful woman who is willing to help him. Wow... What a wonderful redemption, which can wash away all the sadness you wrote about before.

This not only enriches the plot, but also allows for more chapters and more readers, and it is not very difficult to write, isn’t it great?”

Bai Shi's words made Su Ping silent. Ning Guang held his forehead with his hand. Bai Wen ignored her, while Bai Xiao pouted, seemingly having no intention of arguing with the girl.

Seeing this, Bai Shi didn't care about anything else. In order to add some emotional drama to the book she thought was pretty good, she asked, "My opinion is pretty good, right?"

"Wrong. Very wrong. Who's career development story needs to include a love story between a man and a woman?"

Of course, the person who answered this was not Su Ping, but Bai Xiao, who was always outspoken, sometimes fond of laughing, and sometimes sharp-tongued.

"What's wrong with that? Adding a love scene is obviously a good thing." Bai Shi pouted and said sullenly.

Bai Xiao snorted, "Have you read it? Everything in the book is clearly arranged, so where is the place for the love story? Besides, do you think a person who runs business all day and sleeps less than five hours can have the mood to think about this?"

"You... don't talk nonsense. I'm talking about economics. That is, the woman took the initiative, and the man was moved later. Do you understand?"

"That's a disaster. I just mentioned that once you enter the business world, it's like entering a deep sea. If you're not careful, you'll lose everything. Now you're writing about someone being willing to help a down-and-out, talentless, worthless young man who just turned twenty. Could it be that... that woman is a fool?"

Bai Xiao originally wanted to say, is it possible that the author is a fool? But after all, the author was right next to her and they were sitting at the same table, so she changed the subject temporarily.

But when it comes to this, Bai Shi is not convinced. He smiled as if he had succeeded and said, "Then tell me, why did that uncle take the protagonist out of the mountains? Was he seeking profit, or something else?"

"This... is just an exception." After Bai Xiao finished speaking, he realized that he was agreeing with the other party's point of view, and quickly added: "That uncle brought more than one!"

"But there is only one protagonist in the book, and the other adopted people are not mentioned much. Unimportant people will not be mentioned much in the book. This is common knowledge! So what I said is still possible!" Bai Shi covered his mouth and chuckled, his laughter was moving.

Bai Xiao turned his head and looked at the author who had been silent from the beginning until now, and said: "If the author didn't write it, then it's not important. Since there is no love story between a man and a woman, does that mean it's not important either?"

"This cannot be generalized!" Bai Shi's face turned anxious, as if his lifeline was at risk.

Bai Xiao, however, was calm and said slowly, "I'm not arguing with you. I'm asking what the author meant. Can you see things more clearly than the author himself?"

"Books are for us to read. The author is considered... a writer. Su Ping, tell me, who among us is right!" Bai Shi quickly changed his words to avoid the author helping the other guy.

Su Ping, who had inexplicably become the "foreign aid" of both sides, said seriously: "I think both are fine."

"what?"

"what!"

Two shouts with the same meaning but different tones came from the two women's mouths and instantly became the loudest sound in the grocery store.

Ningguang couldn't bear to watch the two people fighting, so she stopped them and said, "Please stop arguing. If you keep arguing, Su Ping won't dare to say anything."

The two of them fell silent immediately, not only because of the boss's authority, but also because they wanted to read the author's explanation of what "anything is fine" meant.

Su Ping noticed that everyone was looking at him, but he remained calm and said with a faint smile: "Actually, whether to add emotional scenes depends mainly on how the author wants to write it, and whether it is well written and attractive enough.

But my ability to depict emotional scenes is terrible, so I didn’t write it.”

Before he finished speaking, Baixiao was secretly delighted, Baishi was unwilling to give in, Baiwen was still indifferent, and Ningguang was very interested in listening to what he had to say next.

Bai Shi asked, "How could that be...it's obvious that your family scenes are well written."

Su Ping smiled and said, "That's because I've had it before, so I know how to write about it. As for love between men and women, I haven't experienced the mystery of it, so if I want to write about it, I'll just write based on my thoughts, which will easily get me scolded!"

"But there are also authors who are eccentric but can write talkative protagonists." Bai Shi was still unwilling to give in. She wanted to argue for her point of view and ask the other party to add the emotional scenes that she liked.

Su Ping chuckled and said with emotion: "That's because the words they wrote are the words that have been suppressed in their hearts and have not been expressed.

Also, every man has his own strengths and weaknesses. I am not good at writing love stories between men and women, but this is for the readers’ and my own comfort.”
