That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 39 The Thirsty Belt

Li Ye, don't be so impulsive. Maybe I really just want to guide you with good intentions?

Li Ye, think about it again! Dahe Publishing House is the best publishing house in our province. If you are so stubborn, you will offend others.

Li Ye, why don't you show us the manuscript first, and the teachers can help us come up with ideas and find out where there are any 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 Dahe Publishing House's publishing intention.

In their opinion, Li Ye is just hypocritical, a middle-aged child who has never been beaten by society and is unwilling to eat even one breath.

But Li Ye's attitude was extremely firm, Master, I write novels to make a fortune, not for guidance.

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 and I can handle 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, so don't give up hastily.

After Li Ye left the door, Principal Chang said to several teachers who hated iron and steel: This child is determined. Please don't get involved. I will inform his family and let them make their own decision.

It's such a shame.

Oh, I am so blessed that I don't know how blessed I am!

Several teachers sighed and dispersed, so they didn't see the sarcasm flashing in Principal Chang's eyes.

He picked up the phone and called the Food Bureau.

I'm looking for Director Li.

.

Li Zhongfa received a call from the County No. 2 Middle School and was wondering, hadn't he just been given a batch of affordable grain? Why come again?

As a result, without saying a few words, he suddenly stood up, knocking over the chair under his buttocks.

What did you say? Say it again!

The sound of chairs falling to the ground and Li Zhongfa's loud voice alarmed many colleagues in the Grain Bureau.

Everyone quietly came over and carefully looked into Li Zhongfa's office.

The office happened to be open, and everyone saw Director Li, who was usually dignified and calm, with a complexion as if he had opened a dyeing workshop, sometimes red, sometimes white, full of surprise and uncertainty, and trying his best to change things.

Don't worry, Principal Chang. You teachers are all educated people. It's not easy to discipline a naughty child. I personally repaired him today, and he rebelled.

Understand, understand, no matter how capable he is, he is still my grandson. I must let him know what humility is.

The people from the Grain Bureau heard Li Zhongfa's words from a distance and made eye contact with each other, as if they had guessed some secret.

A little over half a year ago, Li Zhongfa's grandson's engagement was annulled by a college student, and everyone gossiped about it for a while.

Now it seems that that handsome young man may have committed something again.

But just as everyone thought of this, they heard Li Zhongfa's wanton and wild laughter.

Hahahahahaha~hahahahaha~

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what had happened to their director.

Li Zhongfa laughed heartily for a while before dialing the number of the fertilizer factory.

I'm looking for Li Kaijian. Who am I? I'm his father.

Construction is starting! You go to the County No. 2 Middle School right away and help me carry that kid home. Why? That kid's wings are stiff and I have to smooth him out.

After Li Kaijian put down the phone, Zhang Er Jingang was confused and didn't understand what kind of eagle his father was playing.

However, Li Ye's wings have become stronger, and as a father, he feels this deeply.

Li Ye bought five pairs of new leather boots from the provincial capital a few days ago. Each woman in the family had a pair, except for Li Kaijian and Li Zhongfa.

Li Zhongfa cursed, I've hurt this bastard for nothing, but he was severely criticized by the old lady. He was so old that he almost couldn't get off the stage.

Since I have this opportunity to tame my hair today, I must let that bastard remember it for a long time.

Li Kaijian felt that the leather armed belt around his waist was already thirsty.

. . .

Two hours later, Li Ye and Li Dayong were sneaked into the Li family yard by Li Kaijian.

Then Li Zhongfa introduced the cause and effect, and then Li Ye and Li Dayong were visited by the big-eyed and small-eyed Li family, like monkeys in a provincial zoo.

As expected, Li Kaijian's leather armed belt fell into the hands of his mother, Li Ye's grandmother.

Then Li Kaijian was spanked twice hard by my mother.

[How can you, a good guy like you, be able to beat my grandson? 】

The dignified veteran and workshop director looked at Li Ye faintly, looking left and right. It looked like he was his precious son, but why did he suddenly start shaking?

He took home a lot of money a few days ago, which was incredible enough, but what do you say today?

writing a novel?

He also rejected the publishing intention of Renjia Publishing House.

Are you a sperm?

Ahem~

Li Zhongfa coughed in a dignified manner, and then said: Li Ye, grandpa knows you are capable, but in this society, it is not just ability that makes you successful, you also need to have brains.

Why is our Xiaoye so brainless? I think you two are the only ones who have no brains!

The serious speech was interrupted by the old lady of the Li family, leaving Li Zhongfa speechless.

So Li Zhongfa had to make a long story short: Xiaoye, you are not a coward for bowing your head for a moment. They are the ones who control the situation, and you are the one who submitted the article.

People say that you can't say a few words without losing your skin. If you can't put it in your left ear and out your right ear, it's over. Besides, didn't they call back afterwards and agree to publish it for you?

Li Ye sighed and said: Grandpa, I also want to publish it smoothly so that I can earn some royalties, but their attitude is too high. I think it is better to find another publishing house.

What do you mean by switching to another company? Li Zhongfa said angrily: Do you think publishing houses are like carrots in the field, and you just pull out the ones you like?

If you count the entire Qingshui County, who can publish a novel in these years? Newspapers published palm-sized tofu cubes on display for several days!

Li Ye smiled coquettishly and took out a piece of paper from his school bag.

Of course I won't pull the radish out of the ground, but the radish will come to my arms on its own!

.

Li Zhongfa couldn't understand Li Ye's words, but he recognized what the piece of paper in Li Ye's hand was.

It was a telegraph, the fastest carrier of written information in the 1980s.

Li Ye handed the telegraph newspaper to Li Zhongfa, who quickly asked his wife to get him reading glasses.

[Our publisher has accepted your submission and hereby sends editor Dong Yuejin to your office to discuss publishing matters.]

There were only two lines in the telegram, but Li Zhongfa read it carefully several times, pondering its meaning.

Hiss, Li Zhongfa took a breath and asked, Xiaoye, when did you receive the telegram?

Li Ye said: It was almost after school, and I just picked up the telegram when my father grabbed me with a belt.

Pa~

Li Zhongfa slammed the table and scolded Li Kaijian: Who told you to use the belt? You are over forty, why are you still acting like a gangster?

Li Kaijian was speechless, too full of grievances to express.

[Aren’t you going to give Li Ye a hard time? Why are you stroking me now? Haven't I given up on myself over the years? If you have a grandson and forget your son, how about we not be so heartless? 】

Li Kaijian didn't dare to offend Li Zhongfa, so he had to turn around and ask Li Ye with a dark face: Explain to me, what's going on with this telegram?

Li Ye explained: This is the telegram sent to me by Daocheng Blue Ocean Publishing House. They accepted my submission and have sent people to our Qingshui County to talk to me about publishing. This is different from the Provincial City Publishing House. Can you understand the difference?

Could Li Kaijian not understand?

One is to put on a show and ask Li Ye to come to the house with the manuscript to see how they look.

One is to directly send people to the Li family's territory to negotiate the price with Li Ye.

The difference here is huge.

Looking at the proud Li Ye, Li Kaijian finally couldn't help but ask: What on earth did you get? Why did you suddenly become so smart?

.

Li Ye knew that he couldn't get around it in the end. After a few seconds of silence, he said, Li Dayong knows about this. I suddenly fell ill that time and had a fever for two consecutive days. It was different after I waited.

Li Kaijian hurriedly asked: Why is it different?

Li Ye smiled evilly and said: My waist is no longer sore, my legs are no longer painful, everything I eat tastes delicious, and my brain is bright. I couldn't remember the texts and test questions after reading them eight times before, but now I can remember them roughly after reading them once.

The young and old of the Li family, just like listening to a story, followed Li Ye's narration and imagined, feeling the rebirth of a monster.

Li Dayong also quickly echoed and said: Master, Uncle Kai Jian, it's really like this. Ever since Li Ye got better that day, he has become a god.

A few days ago, we were doing the questions that you got for Li Ye, Master. Those questions were better than those given by the teacher. None of us knew how to do them. Only Li Ye could do them, and then he explained them to us.

Li Dayong said it all, and Li Zhongfa was confused at first, and then became serious.

Question? What question?
