Rebirth and making money first

Zhang Jing returned to Shenzhen, exhausted. She grabbed a quick bite at a random restaurant and returned to her dorm room to rest. The past two days had been exhausting, both physically and mentally. Fortunately, she had some money. Her hard work finally gave her some hope.

After resting, Zhang Jing decisively showered and changed into comfortable clothes, then headed to the parking lot downstairs with her record player. Since it was a day off, the parking lot was sparsely populated, allowing Zhang Jing to easily find a spot with a good view and begin practicing Guanyin Fist to the music. Having not practiced for two days, Zhang Jing needed some time to get used to the familiar feeling.

Slowly relaxing her body, Zhang Jing performed the Guanyin Fist twice in a row, stopping only after the final round. She felt a long-lost sense of peace and tranquility deep within her heart. This peaceful state of mind made her feel extremely satisfied, as if all her worries had been cast away.

After finishing her practice, Zhang Jing returned to her dorm to check the time. It was still early, so she decided to continue writing her story in the computer room. She first opened the backend of her writing platform and checked the data. She saw a message from a website editor urging her to submit her manuscript, and also received a notification that her royalties had been deposited. This time, she earned another 1800 yuan, but Zhang Jing still felt that earning money wasn't easy, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Suddenly, Zhang Jing thought of the many time-travel stories she'd read in her past life. In those stories, the protagonists, leveraging modern knowledge and skills, found wealth and lived happy lives in ancient times. She couldn't help but wonder if these plots would be well-received by readers if they were translated into novels. So, Zhang Jing decided to explore this new creative direction, moving beyond short stories and tackling a medium-length novel.

Zhang Jing looked at the outline with anticipation. She knew that to write a compelling novel, she needed more details and plot. So, she began to conceive the specific content of each chapter, adding more characters, conflicts, and emotional elements to enrich the story.

She firmly believes that as long as she perseveres and writes with all her heart, she will be able to create an immersive and addictive novel, thus winning the enthusiastic attention and deep love of countless readers. And this time, she will use her own literary skills to personally create a brilliant literary world that belongs only to her.

And even traveling through time to exchange resources for places throughout history... Thinking of this, Zhang Jing couldn't help but feel ashamed of her past plagiarism. However, after her rebirth, she had no other assets to turn things around, aside from a deeper understanding of the developments and changes in her past lives. She knew that if she wanted to avoid repeating the mistakes of her past life, she must seize this rare opportunity.

When her phone rang, Zhang Jing looked at the words "Zhang Zhi" displayed on the screen and felt a little annoyed. She knew it was another call from Zhang Zhi, sharing her recent purchases or interesting activities. This time it was definitely a follow-up to the shop purchase. Although they had a good relationship, Zhang Jing was immersed in her own story and didn't want to be disturbed. But if she didn't answer, Zhang Zhi would definitely keep calling, so she finally pressed the answer button reluctantly.

Sure enough, as soon as the call was connected, Zhang Zhi excitedly said, "Honey, I have great news! My colleague just bought a store!" Then she started talking about the lottery, explaining that only two people had won prizes, while others had laptops, teacups, and tea sets. In short, no one left empty-handed. The most eye-catching thing was that one person actually won a motorcycle!

Hearing this, Zhang Jing suddenly became very interested in the laptop. She quickly asked, "What brand is it? Will he sell it? If the price is right, I want to buy it." After all, she was fed up with the days of secretly playing games in the Internet cafe. That uneasy feeling was really too uncomfortable.

Zhang Jing silently prayed that the other party would sell it to her, so that she wouldn't have to go to the internet cafe every night. She felt that if she had her own computer, she could focus more on writing without worrying about being discovered. The thought of this made her feel a little excited.

However, Zhang Zhi told her that the man was her husband's colleague, and that he had a very advanced computer and didn't care about the prizes at all. Zhang Jing was in a good mood when she heard that, and said with a smile: "Then can you ask him if he will sell it to her?" She was still full of anticipation.

Zhang Zhi told her to wait and said she would ask her husband to see if they could find a cheaper laptop for her. If so, she would call her back. Zhang Jing was disappointed, but she could only let the idea go for now. She sighed, wondering when she would finally have her own computer. That way, she could create at home without worrying about time constraints or other people's eyes.

Zhang Jing knew achieving this goal wouldn't be easy, considering buying a computer would cost a fortune. But she believed that with hard work, she would one day achieve her dream. She secretly resolved to write well and earn enough royalties to buy a computer. With this in mind, her mood gradually brightened, and she began to immerse herself in the story again. Hopefully, Zhang Zhi would be able to get the answer she wanted.

Zhang Jing felt tired, so she packed up and headed back to the dorm to rest. Not long after, Zhang Zhi called to tell her her husband had already bought the computer for 4500 yuan, a friendly price. Furthermore, her husband's current laptop could be transferred to Zhang Jing for just 2000 yuan.

However, Zhang Jing felt the price was too high. She said she was willing to spend an additional 2500 yuan to buy a new computer, and hoped Zhang Zhi could persuade her husband to give her a discount. Finally, after some bargaining, Zhang Jing successfully bought a used laptop for 1500 yuan and planned to pick it up when she returned home the following week.

Zhang Jing was pleased with this. After all, her only need now was a quiet and comfortable place to write. Everything else was acceptable. Therefore, she was very pleased with the deal. Furthermore, she secretly resolved that she would never reveal her identity while earning money through writing articles, as the consequences would be disastrous. The thought of this made her shudder.

"Mom has already arranged it. The household registration booklet will arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and my brother will arrive in three days." Zhang Zhi then instructed, "As soon as you receive the news, ask for leave and come back to handle the paperwork!"

Zhang Jing frowned and said hesitantly, "It depends on the situation. If work isn't busy here, it should be fine, but if it's too busy, it might not be possible. Saturdays and Sundays are the only options, but I'll try to take time off."

Looking at the money in her account, Zhang Jing felt depressed. She was constantly struggling with lack of money. The pressure was immense!

The next day at work, the students were all very happy and greeted Zhang Jing. Zhang Jing had them practice what she'd taught them, then pulled them out for practice. It seemed they'd forgotten most of what they'd learned after the break. The director came over to inform Zhang Jing that there would be a performance at the end of the month, and urged everyone to practice hard and strive for good results. Zhang Jing saw this as an opportunity, and she took it even more seriously.

After some thought, she told her director that she had family matters and needed two days off. The director said it wasn't a big deal, and that he couldn't fill in for two days. "Jing, were you being dragged along on a blind date?" Zhang Jing denied it. Seeing the director's "you can't fool me" look, Zhang Jing had an idea. She figured buying a shop wasn't a big deal anyway, and having the director know about it would make it easier to take time off. So she told him about her trip to Huizhou to buy a shop in Yiwu.

Zhang Jing had clearly underestimated Director Chen's ambitions. She was pulled out of the classroom for a detailed explanation. Soon, even the security guard and Aunt Zhang knew there were shops for sale in Huizhou with a down payment of 3 yuan and monthly payments of three years. Furthermore, a daily lottery would be held for 3 winners among the shops sold, with the winner receiving another shop! The news was widespread before lunchtime, and while many people remained skeptical, others continued to approach Zhang Jing to inquire.

What Zhang Jing didn't expect was that Uncle Zhang also called to ask, figuring his daughter-in-law had been transferred and she might still have connections there. Zhang Jing talked until her mouth dried, and then she realized they were organizing a group trip to Huizhou to visit the shop, and she was the "leader" of the group. Not only did she not have to take time off, but she was also paid. They even gave it a name: "Exchange with a partner unit." They'd chartered a tour bus and included a visit to West Lake... Fearing they wouldn't have enough time, they decided to book a two-day trip.

As for bringing family members, just pay the fee. Busy with gathering friends, Zhang Jing decided to write a story. While this was a strange thing, it was nice to get a ride. Ah Long called again to ask how Zhang Jing had been doing. Just like in his previous life, even if it meant a few days of silence, Ah Long had the ability to feign amnesia.

Zhang Jing figured she wouldn't argue with him anyway, so she just used him as a window into her life. So she told him everything that had happened over the past few days. Sure enough, Ah Long, impersonating Director Chen, asked ever more detailed questions. Finally, he decided to pay for his family to ride the company bus to check out the shops. If it was a good fit, he'd take action.
