"Son, how many times have I told you? Don't brag." His aunt said while cooking, "I don't know how much money you have in your bank account. It's 137 yuan, almost 50 cents. You can't even afford a bicycle, yet you say that you want to buy a car and a house to win over a fair, rich and beautiful woman. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at? "
"Haha!" Shi Jun scratched his head and laughed awkwardly. "Mom, how can you expose me like this?"
Fang Tian looked around. The mother and son were living in a small rented apartment. How good could their family situation be? Marrying a fair, rich and beautiful woman was definitely nonsense.
His aunt, who was wearing an orange apron, came over with a plate of vegetables. She looked at her son and said with dissatisfaction, "Can't you be more down-to-earth?"
Since there were guests, she cooked two more dishes. There were a total of three dishes.
There was a plate of spicy tofu, a plate of vegetables, and a plate of cucumber lean meat.
It was a very ordinary meal. But for Shi Jun's family, it was already very sumptuous.
His aunt took off her apron and sat down. She looked at Fang Tian and smiled, "Nephew, don't mind it."
Fang Tian picked up his chopsticks and smiled, "It doesn't matter what I eat."
Shi Jun picked up his chopsticks and wolfed down the food.
"Cousin, how is the Tama Mada factory? Is it good? "Fang Tian looked at him and asked.
Shi Jun worked at the Tama Mada factory. He knew about it from him.
Shi Jun said, "Don't you also work at that factory?"
"I just started working there today." Fang Tian picked up a piece of cucumber and put it into his mouth.
Shi Jun's face suddenly became serious, "Cousin, don't go to that factory. That place is simply hell on earth!"
Hell on earth? Fang Tian was so surprised that he almost bit his tongue.
"Nonsense." His aunt said, "How can it be so exaggerated?"
"It's true." Shi Jun opened his eyes and mouth wide and said with an exaggerated expression, "Many workers call that factory 'Hell Factory'. Bleeding is considered light. Broken fingers, broken arms, smashed bones, and lying in a funeral parlor! "
Fang Tian smiled. This was too exaggerated.
She quickly hit the back of Shi Jun's hand with her finger and said unhappily: "You ah, you're just afraid of hardship and tiredness. A good factory was turned into a hell on earth by you. My son … "
His aunt said earnestly, "You can't go on like this. You're always doing odd jobs in the factory. Mom is really worried about you. When will you get married?"
"Soon, soon." Shi Jun stuffed a piece of tofu into his mouth and said, "Mom, you don't know how many girls like me. Everywhere I go, I cause a commotion. Many girls are screaming and begging to be pushed down! "
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Jun was hit on the head by his mother with the chopsticks.
His aunt snorted and said, "How many girls have I arranged for you to go on blind dates? Including the last time, this was the 101st blind date that had failed, right? When the girls saw where we lived, they screamed and ran away! "
Fang Tian almost burst out laughing. This mother and son's conversation was really interesting.
Shi Jun chuckled and said, "If my novel is published, buying a car, a house, and a wife won't be a problem."
At the mention of his novel, his aunt became angry and said, "You only know how to write novels all day? Even when you're at work, you're secretly writing those unrealistic things. Can that be eaten? "
"It can." Shi Jun said, "Haven't you seen how many writers earn millions from publishing a novel?"
"Are you a writer?" His aunt wrinkled her nose and said unhappily, "Son, how many times have I told you that you have to be down-to-earth? Writing novels can't be eaten. Many writers can't even fill their stomachs for three meals. "
"It's only temporary." Shi Jun said, "If I persevere, I'll succeed."
"If you persevere, you'll die." His aunt said angrily, "You'd better work hard. Don't live in a fantasy all day."
In her opinion, writing novels was not a proper occupation. It was a dead end.
Shi Jun was unhappy and said, "You're so annoying."
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Fang Tian tried to smooth things over and said with a smile, "Let's not talk about this. Let's talk about something else."
Shi Jun sullenly finished his meal and picked up a stack of white paper from the table. He walked outside and sat down on a stone slab.
He took out a cigarette from his pocket and took out a lighter.
"Pa!" Shi Jun lit the cigarette and took a deep breath.
Shi Jun lowered his head and looked at the manuscript on his lap. He flipped through the pages of his novel.
"Great writer, what kind of novel are you writing?" Fang Tian walked over and asked Shi Jun.
Shi Jun smiled bitterly and said, "Cousin, don't laugh at me."
Fang Tian sat next to him and said, "Can you let me see your novel?"
Shi Jun was taken aback for a moment before handing the manuscript over.
It was a thick stack of manuscripts with a clip on the left. There were about a million words in total.
Fang Tian looked at the title and suddenly smiled.
"Harry Potter and the Great Sage."
These two guys, can you pull them together?
Shi Jun smiled and said, "Isn't it very nonsensical?"
"Nope. Haha! "Fang Tian smiled and said," It's very creative. "
What was the most popular novel in this era? It was without a doubt Harry Potter. It could be seen on all the bestseller lists in the world. With the success of Harry Potter, a woman living in poverty realized her legend of wealth.
It was said that the author Rowling's wealth was more than the Queen of England.
"Harry Potter" made magic book fans all over the world go crazy. Authors who wrote novels also went crazy and imitated "Harry Potter" one by one.
Shi Jun was one of them.
After flipping through a few pages, Fang Tian looked at Shi Jun and asked, "Do you really like writing novels?"
"Yes." Shi Jun said, "I like reading novels and writing novels. I really want to rely on it to make money."
"I don't have a high education and I can't find a good job. I can only work in factories and do tiring 12-13 hours a day. I don't want my life to be held hostage like this. I have dreams."
"I want to make a lot of money and improve the lives of my family. I want to buy a car for my father and a shop for my mother. I want her to be the boss …"
As he spoke, his voice choked up, "Am I wrong?"
He was also a person who looked up at the sky at a 45 degree angle!
Every industry was like a pyramid. Only a few people could stand at the top. This was why everyone had dreams and most of them would fail in the end.
Fang Tian heavily patted Shi Jun's shoulder and said, "Cousin supports you."
"Cousin, you are a person full of positive energy." Shi Jun said gratefully.
"Right." Shi Jun said, "Why did you go to work in that crappy factory? That factory is really bad. I'd rather move bricks at a construction site than go there. "
He had just wanted to go to Tamada Company to meet the boss, but Shi Jun had mistakenly thought that he was going there to work.
Fang Tian laughed and said, "I just wanted to go there and take a look."
