Chapter 39 The thirsty belt
"Li Ye, don't be so arrogant. Maybe they are really just kind enough to guide you?"
"Li Ye, think about it again! Dahe Publishing House is the best publishing house in our province. If you are so tough, you will offend people."
"Li Ye, why don't you show us the manuscript first, and the teachers will help you come up with ideas and find out where there are shortcomings."
In the principal's office of the county No. 2 Middle School, several teachers took turns to persuade Li Ye, hoping that he would change his decision and agree to the publishing intention of Dahe Publishing House.
In their opinion, Li Ye is just a pretentious boy. He is just a second-year-old child who has never suffered from the beating of society and is unwilling to eat in one breath.
But Li Ye's attitude was extremely firm. I wrote novels to make a fortune, not to guide me.
So Li Ye said lukewarmly: "Principal Chang, Teacher Luo, thank you for your concern, but I have decided to switch to other publishing houses.
If nothing happens, I'll go back first, I can solve it myself."
""
Principal Chang looked at Li Ye and nodded slightly: "Okay, go back and think about it first. This kind of opportunity is rare, don't give up hastily."
After Li Ye left the house, Principal Chang said to a few teachers who were disappointed: "This child is determined, so don't get involved. I'll inform his family and let them decide for themselves."
"It's a pity."
"Oh, I really don't know how blessed I am in a blessing!"
Several teachers dispersed with sighs, so they could not see the sarcasm that flashed through Principal Chang's eyes.
He picked up the phone and called the Food Bureau.
"I'll look for Director Li"
.
Li Zhongfa received a call from the County No. 2 Middle School and wondered if he had just given a batch of affordable grain? Why did he come again?
As a result, without saying a few words, he stood up and stuck out the chairs under his butt.
"What did you say? Say it again!"
The sound of the chair falling to the ground and Li Zhongfa's loud voice alarmed many colleagues in the Grain Bureau.
Everyone came over quietly and looked carefully into Li Zhongfa's office.
The office just didn't close. When everyone saw Director Li, who was usually majestic and calm, his face seemed to be open as if he had opened a dyeing workshop. He was sometimes red and sometimes white, and he was shocked and doubtful, and he did his best to change his mind.
"Don't worry, Principal Chang, your teachers are all educated people. It's hard to discipline my child. I'm going to fix him myself today, and he's going to be the worst."
"I understand, no matter how capable he is, he is my grandson. I must let him understand what modesty is."
The people from the Food Bureau heard Li Zhongfa's words from afar and exchanged eyes with each other, as if they had guessed some secret.
Half a year ago, Li Zhongfa's grandson was resigned by a college student, and everyone was very gossiped about it for a while.
Now it seems that the handsome guy who is not as handsome as a man might have done something again.
But as soon as everyone thought of this, they heard Li Zhongfa’s wild laughter.
“Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Everyone looked at each other, wondering what their director had sucked.
Li Zhongfa smiled happily for a long time before dialing the fertilizer factory.
"Who am I looking for Li Kaijian? I am his father."
"Building starts! You go to the No. 2 Middle School immediately and lift the boy home. Why? The boy's wings are hard, so I have to stroke his hair."
Li Kaijian, who put down the phone, was confused and didn't understand what his father was playing with.
However, Li Ye's "wings are hard", he is deeply touched by his father.
Li Ye bought five pairs of new leather boots from the provincial capital a few days ago. The women in the family each had one pair, but they were not as good as him, Li Kaijian and Li Zhongfa.
Li Zhong cursed, "It hurts this bastard in vain", but was fiercely criticized by the old woman. He was so old that he almost couldn't come to Taiwan.
Since there is this opportunity to "pull hair" today, I must give the bastard a long memory.
Li Kaijian felt that the leather armed belt around his waist was already hungry and thirsty.
...
Two hours later, Li Ye and Li Dayong were brought to the Li family yard by Li Kaijian.
Then Li Zhongfa introduced the causes and consequences, and then Li Ye and Li Dayong were visited by the Li family, who were staring at each other, like monkeys in the provincial zoo.
Li Kaijian's leather armed belt fell into the hands of his mother, Li Ye's grandmother.
Then, Li Kaijian's butt was thrust hard by me twice.
[Just like you, you can still beat my grandson?]
The veteran and workshop director looked at Li Ye quietly, looking around, no matter how he looked, they were all his own precious sons, but why did he suddenly tremble?
A few days ago, he took a lot of money home, which was incredible enough, but what were you talking about today?
Writing a novel?
He also rejected the publishing intention of the publisher
Have you become a sperm?
"Cough ~"
Li Zhongfa coughed with a very stylish look and said, "Li Ye, grandpa knows you are capable, but in this society, it is not just about ability to eat, but also has a brain."
"Where is our Ono who has no brains? I think you two are not smart!"
The serious speech was interrupted by the old lady of the Li family, which made Li Zhongfa speechless.
So Li Zhongfa had to say a long story short: "Ono, he is not a coward when he bows his head for a while. He is a checker, and you are a submission.
Someone said that you didn’t lose any oily skin. You just went into your left ear and came out of your right ear. Besides, didn’t they call back and agree to publish it for you?”
Li Ye sighed and said, "Grandpa, I also want to publish it smoothly and make some manuscript fees, but their attitude is too high. I think it's better to change to another publishing house."
"What does it mean to change one?" Li Zhongfa said anxiously: "Do you think the publishing house is a carrot in the field, so you can pick up any one you like?
You hug the entire Qingshui County to count. Who can publish a novel in recent years? The tofu chunks of palm-sized tofu were displayed in the newspaper for several days!"
Li Ye smiled embarrassedly and took out a piece of paper from his schoolbag.
"Of course I won't go to the radish from the ground, but the radish will come to my arms by myself!"
""
Li Zhongfa couldn't understand Li Ye's words, but he recognized what the paper piece in Li Ye's hand was.
That was a "telephone and newspaper" and the fastest carrier of text information transmission in the 1980s.
Li Ye handed the telegram to Li Zhongfa, who quickly asked his wife to bring him reading glasses.
[Our company has accepted your submission and I sent editor Dong Yuejin to your office to discuss publishing matters]
There were only two lines of words on the telegram, but Li Zhongfa read it over and over again and carefully several times, thinking about the meaning.
"Hiss," Li Zhong took a breath and asked, "Ono, when did you receive the telegram?"
Li Ye said: "Just when school was about to end, I just got the telegram and my father caught me with a belt."
"Ba~"
Li Zhongfa slapped the table and scolded Li Kaijian: "Who asked you to move the belt? People in their forties are still like hooligans and gangsters."
Li Kaijian was speechless, and he couldn't express his grievances.
[Don’t you want to stroke Li Ye’s hair? Why are you changing me now? Haven’t I admit defeat over the years? I forgot my son with a grandson, wouldn’t we not bring such a heartless person?]
Li Kaijian didn't dare to provoke Li Zhongfa, so he had to turn his head and ask Li Ye with a dark face: "Explain and explain to me, what's going on with this telegram?"
Li Ye explained: "This is a telegram from the Island City Blue Ocean Publishing House. They accepted my submission and have sent someone to our Qingshui County to talk to me about publishing. Can you understand the difference between this and the provincial capital Publishing House?"
Can Li Kaijian not understand?
One was holding a shelf and asked Li Ye to come to the door to see the other person's face with the manuscript.
One is to send someone directly to the Li family's territory to negotiate price codes with Li Ye.
There is a big difference here.
Looking at Li Ye who was proud, Li Kaijian finally couldn't help asking: "What did you know? Why did you suddenly become so smart?"
""
Li Ye knew that he couldn't get around in the end, and said after a few seconds of silence: "Li Dayong knew that I suddenly became ill that time. After two consecutive days of fever, it was different."
Li Kaijian hurriedly asked, "Why is it different?"
Li Ye smiled evilly and said, "The waist is no longer sore, the legs are no longer hurt, what you eat is fragrant, your brain is bright. I can't remember the text and test questions before, and now I can remember it by reading it once."
The young and old of the Li family, just like listening to the story, felt the rebirth of a monster as Li Ye's narration was full of imagination.
Li Dayong also quickly echoed and said, "Master, Uncle Kai Jian, this is true. Since Li Ye got better that day, he has become amazing.
We were doing the questions that Master had brought for Li Ye a few days ago. Those questions were better than those given by the teacher. We didn’t know how to do them. Only Li Ye could do them, and then he told us.”
Li Dayong Balabala said, Li Zhongfa was confused at first, and then became serious.
"Question? What question?"
