If one thousand Mora is converted into real currency, it is about five to ten dollars.
After all, Aradaki Ichito was the leader of the Aradaki faction, but he ended up being extremely poor.
But these thousand Moras are enough for him to eat for three to five days.
He walked towards the 99 sundry shop with a tired look on his face.
The store owner, Aoi, was a young, pretty woman. As soon as she saw Chiki Ueno coming to the counter, she immediately greeted him enthusiastically.
"My handsome guest, what would you like to buy? My shop has ninety-nine items to satisfy your wishes."
"I want to buy some rice. How much is a pound of rice now?"
When she heard that the other party was here to buy rice, Kui's face fell on the spot. She couldn't make much money selling rice. "Two hundred Mora per pound."
"Is it so expensive?" Ueno Chiki remembered that it seemed to be one hundred moras per pound before.
"You said it's expensive?" Kui was furious, her eyes full of disdain and contempt for him, "I'm really going crazy. I've been selling rice for so many years, I know the price best. How can two hundred moras per pound be expensive? I'm selling authentic Inazuma domestic rice, not some random rice. You think it's expensive, have you ever thought about your own problem? Have you ever increased your salary over the years? Have you worked hard?"
Chiki Ueno on the opposite side was extremely depressed. In fact, he had really tried hard enough.
During the month he traveled through time, he wrote novels all night long until his wrists ached and he could not lift the pen.
But the original body's conditions were too harsh, what could he do?
"Take five kilograms of rice." He gave all the one thousand Mora he had just extorted from Ara Taki Ichito to Aoi.
Aoi took Mora impatiently, counted it casually, then went backstage to find a cloth bag and weighed five kilograms of rice.
After taking five kilograms of rice, Ueno Chiki walked back to his home.
Inazuma Castle is an ancient and beautiful city. Strolling on the bluish-white stone streets, the red cherry trees on both sides of the road sway gently in the breeze, and the elegant fragrance of the flowers fills your nose, making you intoxicated.
Soon, he reached the edge of Inazuma city, where there was a long-standing fireworks shop on the roadside.
He looked there with a complicated expression and found that the familiar figure in his memory did not appear at the door of the store, so he quickened his pace and left quickly.
However, what he didn't know was that not long after he left, a passionate golden girl came out of the store. She had a tall and graceful figure, and her proud chest was tightly wrapped with white bandages. The deep ravine in the middle aroused people's infinite reverie. Her face was very cute, her eyes were clear and bright, and she was full of innocence and purity.
"Come to think of it, Brother Qianshu hasn't come to see me for a long time. Could there be some problems at home?" The girl touched her fair chin with her slender hand and said to herself, "Should I go to his house to take a look? Uh, it seems I don't even know where his house is. It's so annoying. He clearly said that he would come to see me when he is free."
She stamped her feet angrily, irritated at someone for not keeping a promise.
……
When Chiki Ueno returned home, it was already sunset.
The setting sun used up its remaining strength to cast down the last wave of warm light.
He lowered his head and stared blankly at the two purple-red violets placed on the ground at the door. A warm current flowed back and forth in his heart. He turned his head to look at the ghost woman's house on the right and felt an urge to cry.
His time travel was so terrible. As an ordinary lower-class person, Inazuma had a very hard life during the Eye Hunting Order and the Locked Country Order.
He often complained, what a lousy place this is! A lousy place! A lousy place!
God brought him here, have you ever thought of letting him go back?
But the care and concern from the ghost lady next door made him feel that at least the world was not too bad, and there were still people who cared about and remembered him.
Pushing open the shabby wooden door, he first put the rice into the rice jar, then boiled water in the pot to prepare today's dinner.
As smoke rose from the cooking stove, he focused on watching the rice grains and violet melon pieces in the pot tumbling in the hot water.
The moment the hot porridge was ready, he was overwhelmed with indescribable excitement and joy. He savored the geothermal porridge carefully. The heartwarming temperature and sweet taste were like sunshine shining into his heart, bringing him warmth and comfort.
Life must go on after all. Although it is bitter most of the time, there are sweet moments occasionally.
Well, since we have come to this world, we should live well.
After dinner, he lay on his bed, thinking about his future.
In my previous life, I didn't have any basic life skills except for writing novels. My original self also didn't have any skills except farming and selling property.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but start complaining about his original body. Although the Ueno family gradually declined after the accidental death of the previous head of the family, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and the family still has a lot of assets, at least there will be no problem with food and clothing for a lifetime.
As a result, the original body spent all his family fortune for that fireworks girl, and in the end, all he got in return was a sentence, "Ueno Chiki, you are a good person, I regard you as my brother."
The original body was unable to get over the problem and embarked on a path of no return, which led to his traveling through time and space as Zhang Qianshu.
Licking a dog will lead to a bad death!
Putting these distractions aside, he began to conceive his next light novel.
The previous routine online novels will not work here. The huge cultural differences mean that these types of novels are not popular among the Inazuma people. They prefer novels with a light-hearted and cheerful style.
Life is already full of disasters, why should I go through sadness just to hide away and read a light novel?
However, he had little experience in this type of light novel and had no idea how to write it.
And he didn't know much about the island nation's culture, most of which came from wonderful man-woman action movies.
When he thought of this, inspiration suddenly struck him.
He immediately took out a piece of paper, wrote down the title of his next light novel, "My husband is weak and powerless, so as an executive I have no choice but to embark on a path of immorality."
Chapter 5 Young Woman Rosalyn
"Rosaline is a young woman, a natural beauty, outstanding appearance, hot body, attracting men one after another.
These days, she has been worried about the assessment of the Fatui executive officer seat. Logically, her strength is sufficient, but her qualifications are relatively shallow.
But if she could get the recommendation of Piero, the chief executive officer of the Fatui, she would have a good chance of sprinting to the eighth seat.
However, although her husband, the cock Puccini, was the fifth seat, he was not very capable and could not help her at all. Moreover, he gradually became unable to help her at night, and the affairs often ended in a hasty manner, which could not satisfy her fiery desire. She was always stuck in an uncomfortable position of being neither up nor down.
For this evaluation, Rosalin had to rely on herself to win the recommendation of the greedy and lustful Piero.
She was wearing a very sexy slim-fitting fiery red dress, her proud white breasts were squeezed out, her waist was slender, her round buttocks were plump and straight, and her beautiful legs were tightly wrapped in black ultra-thin stockings.
Under the fiery gazes of the Fatui soldiers, he walked into Piero's office.
Soon after, there were violent collision and friction sounds coming from the closed office.
Chiki Ueno wrote day and night for three consecutive days and finally finished the article "My husband was powerless, so as an executive, I had no choice but to embark on a path of immorality." Many key parts of the article were written in a very obscure way.
The original novel has always been a classic among classics. In addition to the vivid description of that aspect, it mainly tells the story of the various bullying and injustices suffered by a woman in the workplace, reflecting the power domination and unspoken rules in contemporary society.
There are also quite a few people who like it because they put themselves into the perspective of the original husband.
……
In front of the Eighth Hall.
"Ueno Chiki, are you sure you really want to publish this novel?
The editor Kuroda who was speaking had a haggard face and a weak step, and he felt as if he had been hollowed out. While reading this novel just now, he had already gone back to his bedroom and showered six times. He had clearly entered the sage mode. But when he thought of the plot in the novel, his whole body became hot and there was a commotion down there.
This novel is so well-written that it fully displays the charm of the heroine. He can imagine the seductive scene as soon as he closes his eyes.
"Yes, I want to publish this novel." Ueno Chiki's face was determined. He was now almost at the end of his rope. If he had no new source of income, he would starve to death sooner or later.
"Alas." Kuroda sighed. Ueno Chiki was actually a good author that he was optimistic about. It was just that his writing ideas were not right. With a little adjustment, he would definitely become a very good light novel writer. But he never expected that this guy would go down a wrong path.
Honestly speaking, even if we put aside the sex scenes in "My husband is powerless, so as an executive I have no choice but to embark on a path of immorality", this is still a very good light novel, but it is unlikely to sell like hot cakes.
"Ueno Chiki, can I ask you a personal question? You are not an expert at visiting flowers, so how can you describe those contents so vividly and vividly?"
Ueno Chiki naturally would not tell him that in his previous life he had watched a lot of movies. Although he had never put them into practice, he had extremely rich theoretical knowledge.
"Maybe I am gifted in this area!"
He is gifted in this area? This guy is really talented. Kuroda did not continue to ask. There are many weirdos in Teyvat, and Ueno Chiki is considered normal.
"Congratulations, your novel meets the requirements of our Yaedo. If you have no objection, then come and sign the contract!" Kuroda said as he took out three copies of the standard contract from behind the counter. "The cost of a novel is 1,000 Mora, and the selling price is 1,500 Mora. The net profit of 500 Mora is split 80% to 20%, with Yaedo taking 400 Mora and you taking 100 Mora."
After listening to this, Ueno Chiki was speechless. He only earned a hundred Mora from writing a novel, which was only enough to buy half a pound of rice.
As a new author, he does not have many choices. Moreover, 80% is also the normal profit sharing ratio of Yaedo. Only authors who have been famous for a long time or have special circumstances can get more.
For example, the author of "I was reborn as the General of Thunder and became invincible" received 50% of the share because he wrote it at the risk of being executed by the Tenryo Bugyo. If it weren't for the Yaeji who personally came out to rescue him, his whole family would have come to the feast long ago.
After quickly signing the contract, he did not leave Yaedo directly. Instead, he touched his nose and said a little embarrassedly: "Editor Kuroda, can you give me an advance on the manuscript fee?"
"How much do you want?"
"Ten thousand molas."
Editor Kuroda took out 10,000 Mora from his purse and said, "Use it first."
"Thank you!"
Ueno put one hundred Mora coins with a face value of one hundred into his purse.
"Editor Kuroda, can you lend me a pen and paper? I'm writing an IOU."
Kuroda waved his hand gently, "Don't bother, it's only 10,000 Mora, not much money."
However, Ueno Chiki insisted on writing an IOU, and Kuroda had no choice but to agree.
After waving goodbye to editor Kuroda, he took Yiman Mora and walked towards the Kujuku Monopoly Store.
As he was walking, someone suddenly hit him hard on the shoulder, almost breaking his fragile skeleton.
"Little White Dragon of the Waves, what a coincidence, I meet you again. While the weather is so good, let's have another passionate bet between men! This time, I, Huang Long, who is invincible in the world and unrivaled on earth, will defeat you in a fight. Hahahaha!"
Arata Ichito put his hands on his hips and laughed heartily.
"Can't you be gentler?" Ueno Chiki rubbed his shoulders painfully and complained to him.
"Oh, sorry, I lost control of my strength in the excitement."
"Hey! Are you going to make a bet with me? Did you bring Mora with you this time?"
Arata Ichito immediately took out his purse, "This is my day's salary as a part-time worker! Come on! Let's play another game of addition and subtraction within 20! I will definitely win this time."
Ueno Chiki felt helpless and couldn't help but sigh secretly. He was ready to turn over a new leaf, but someone just came to trick him.
As the saying goes, every failure makes you wiser, so I'll let this guy learn some wisdom.
“Since you are so eager for this battle, I, Little White Dragon of the Waves, will give you such an opportunity.
You answered this question last time.
Excuse me, there is one monkey on the ground, and seven monkeys on the ground, how many monkeys are there in total?"
Arata Ichito answered without hesitation, "Two monkeys!"
