Back to 1997, I became the originator of online literature

Chapter 176 Senior! I applied to this school because of you
"Well, I moved to a new place, made some money, and didn't know how to spend it, so I bought a bigger house."

Cao Sheng jokingly said that he was in a state where he had to spend a lot of money.

Wei Dongming was very curious, "Where have you moved to now? Is it far from our school?"

Cao Sheng: "It's a little far. Come visit me when you have time!"

He was just being polite, but Wei Dongming nodded immediately, "Okay! How about we go now? Anyway, I have nothing to do today, so I can just go to your new house to get familiar with it. Let's go!"

As he said that, he put his arm around Cao Sheng's shoulder and walked towards the school gate.

Cao Sheng laughed.

But it doesn't matter.

He had a good relationship with his roommates, at least on the surface. His non-competitive personality allowed his roommates to get along well with him.

This was also one of the reasons why everyone urged him to treat everyone after the news of his novel's publication was exposed.

Nowadays, if you are not popular, even if you want others to pay attention to you, they may not pay attention to you.

Just like when Wei Dongming said before that he had found a girlfriend and wanted to treat his roommates to a meal, he was immediately embarrassed by several roommates. Two or three of them said they were busy and did not want to go.

Cao Sheng didn't ride a bike today. It was only a few miles in total, so he just treated it as a walk.

Along the way, they walked and talked.

Seeing that Wei Dongming had gotten a lot darker, Cao Sheng was a little curious about what Wei Dongming had done during the summer vacation.
Wei Dongming said that he set up a stall in the old street this summer and sold various tourist souvenirs, mainly to hone his eloquence and gain experience in selling things.

Cao Sheng was quite surprised.

Wei Dongming felt like he had been reborn and had changed a lot.

In the original time and space, Wei Dongming was very carefree during his three years in college. Coming from a well-off family, he never worked during college.

But after he was reborn, Wei Dongming sold wine in a supermarket during the Chinese New Year last year, and went to the old street to sell souvenirs this summer.

His personality has become much calmer and he doesn't speak as arrogantly as before.

He felt that Wei Dongming had changed a lot.

But when Wei Dongming arrived at his villa, he felt that he had changed too much.

"Third brother! Did you buy this villa?"

Walking into the villa gate, Wei Dongming's eyes were full of surprise.

Cao Sheng smiled and nodded.

Wei Dongming gave him a thumbs up, "Awesome! I worked so hard this summer and only earned a few hundred yuan, and you quietly bought a villa. We all go to college to spend money, but you come to college to make money? Why do I feel like we are not in the same university?"

Cao Sheng smiled and gestured with his hand to continue walking forward.

As we walked, he said, "I was just lucky that the novel I wrote was published."

Wei Dongming shook his head, "You are too modest! If you win the lottery and become rich, then you say you are lucky. I believe that writing novels can also be a matter of luck. Can you write like you do?"

At noon, Cao Sheng called the nearby Liuweilou, ordered a few dishes and a soup, and invited Wei Dongming to have lunch there.

When Wei Dongming was leaving, Cao Sheng said to him, "Old Four, when we get back to school, keep this a secret for me! Don't tell anyone that I bought a villa."

Wei Dongming responded with an OK gesture.

Wei Dongming's credibility is pretty good in this regard.

He knew before that the courtyard house on Binjiang Road was not rented by Cao Sheng but bought, and Cao Sheng told him not to tell anyone else.

And until now, no one in the school knows that the courtyard was bought by Cao Sheng.

What Cao Sheng didn't know was that after Wei Dongming left his villa, he walked about a hundred meters and suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Cao Sheng's villa with a complicated expression.

After looking for a while, he took out the mobile phone he had just bought and deleted the phone number of a female schoolmate from it.

This summer, when he was setting up a stall in the old street, he met a female schoolmate who was in the same class as him and was very cute.

This female schoolmate was working as a summer intern in the old street, as a salesperson in a vintage clothing store. She was very cute and was his type.

The two got to know each other after a few interactions.

It was because he saw that she had a mobile phone that he decided to buy one and asked for her mobile phone number.

He had originally planned to formally confess his feelings to her after the new semester started.

Today, he went to Cao Sheng's villa and suddenly felt that falling in love was boring. He should work hard to improve himself and find ways to make money. This is what he should do.

Cao Sheng has moved into the villa, how could Wei Dongming not be touched at all?

Besides, improving his abilities and working hard to make money was his plan last year, but he recently saw a lovely female schoolmate and wanted to fall in love again.

And today, Cao Sheng's villa made him firm in his previous thoughts.

……

Cao Sheng had no idea that he had only treated Wei Dongming to a meal and that had already made Wei Dongming give up the idea of ​​pursuing the girl.

The new semester has started.

For half a month in a row, he saw groups of freshmen wearing camouflage uniforms on campus again.

For half a month, the playground was filled with the sounds of freshmen’s military training every day.

The enrollment of thousands of new students has added a lot of vitality to the campus.

Every day when I walk on campus, I can see the vitality on the faces of freshmen.

Some freshmen were full of energy and ran as they walked; some pretended to be mature and stern, but their curious eyes betrayed their hearts; some had mysterious smiles on their lips, but no one knew what they were smiling at, and they seemed very confident. Cao Sheng had seen freshmen enroll once in September last year.

Seeing such new students again this year, he felt that time flew by.

The difference from last year is that this year he is often stopped by unfamiliar freshmen when walking on campus.

Most of them claimed to be fans of his books and wanted his autograph.

The eighth day after school started.

In the evening, Cao Sheng was walking on the way to the cafeteria when he was suddenly stopped by a boy in camouflage uniform.

The difference between the freshmen who had stopped him in recent days was that this freshman today didn't look like the type with a cheerful personality who would ask for autographs.

He is less than 1.7 meters tall and looks a bit thin.

After stopping Cao Sheng, he blushed a little and seemed a little nervous. He looked up at Cao Sheng and mustered up the courage to say, "Senior! I am a fan of your books."

Cao Sheng burst out laughing and thought: Another book fan.

Before he could reply, the freshman said, "Senior, I applied for admission because I knew you were in this school. My name is Xu Sanbiao. Since I read your novel, I have also started writing novels. I have written more than 7 words so far. Can you give me some advice? I really came to this school because of you."

Cao Sheng was stunned.

Unexpectedly, a freshman would tell him that he applied to this school because he was here, and the freshman actually said that he had written more than 7 words.

As a newcomer, I wrote more than 7 words in my first book, which is rare in this day and age.

Even for Cao Sheng, it was difficult for him to save up 70,000 words before publishing a new book.

If you don't publish, there will be no pressure to update, your mentality will be very relaxed, and it will be difficult to increase the number of manuscripts in your backlog.

"Did you bring your manuscript?"

It was the first time that Cao Sheng encountered such a book lover, so he was no longer in a hurry to go to the cafeteria.

His expression also became more serious.

Xu Sanbiao nodded, took out a soft-covered copybook rolled into a scroll from his trouser pocket, hurriedly unfolded the copybook with both hands, rolled it up several times to make it less curled, and then handed it to Cao Sheng with both hands.

"Thank you, Senior! Thank you."

Cao Sheng took the soft cover copy, opened the cover and took a look.

The handwriting is a bit ugly, but it is much clearer than Cao Sheng's original manuscript. At least every word in the manuscript in the soft cover copy can be recognized.

Title: The Shame of the Academy

Author: Third-rate scholar
Introduction: The Astrology Academy is a small sect in the world of cultivation. This sect excels in astrology. There is a legend circulating in the academy: by learning the essence of astrology, one can find future strong men who have not yet risen. As long as one finds such a strong man and builds a good relationship with him in advance, one will be able to ascend to the fairyland with him in the future.

Xu San is one of the many disciples of the Astronomical Academy.

His ability to master astrology has never been mastered, and he is a well-known disgrace in the academy.

After three years in the Astrological Academy, he still hadn't been able to master the art of astrology and was expelled from the academy by his master.

From then on, his legendary life began.

……

Such a book title and such an introduction made Cao Sheng look at the new student in front of him with a new respect.

I feel like this junior fellow student isn't just writing nonsense, but has some substance.

Cao Sheng did not continue reading the main text of the manuscript. He looked up at Xu Sanbiao in front of him and asked, "Have you had dinner?"

Xu Sanbiao shook his head and forced a smile. "No! I've been waiting here for you to pass by. I'll go eat later. It's okay, senior. I'm not hungry."

Cao Sheng smiled and raised his chin towards the cafeteria. "Let's go eat together. I'll treat you! While we eat, I'll take a look at your manuscript. How about that?"

Xu Sanbiao nodded quickly.

After walking a few steps with Cao Sheng, he finally remembered to say, "Senior, I'll treat you! I should be the one treating you."

Cao Sheng smiled.

Today, a meal is nothing to him.

He also didn't want this junior to think that he suggested going to the cafeteria to eat just to get a meal.

So, when they arrived at the cafeteria, Cao Sheng relied on his acquaintance with the aunties who served the food and asked them not to accept Xu Sanbiao's meal ticket.

This made Xu Sanbiao feel a little embarrassed and his face turned red again.

After preparing the meal, Cao Sheng responded to the alumni and classmates who greeted him from time to time, and took Xu Sanbiao to sit at the dining table in the corner.

While eating, Cao Sheng opened Xu Sanbiao's manuscript and read the first chapter carefully.

In Cao Sheng's eyes, a new book written by a new author naturally has many problems.

For example, the writing is dragged out, the main plot progresses too slowly, the vocabulary is too small, the sentences are not smooth enough, the first chapter lacks highlights, etc.

Basically, Xu Sanbiao made all the mistakes that a newcomer might make.

But Cao Sheng thought these were minor problems.

In the past two years, at least a dozen alumni and classmates have asked him for help in writing the beginning of their novels.

The problems in Xu Sanbiao's manuscript are almost the same as those people.

But Xu Sanbiao's opening, or the creativity of this book, is something that those people do not have.
