I'm a pirate in Tokyo

"But I still have to work part-time and don't have that much time." Nami said helplessly.

Wu Sheng pushed up his non-existent glasses: "It seems that we need to learn more about the income of cartoonists!"

Nami looked like she was waiting for your performance.

Next to him, Sanji looked unhappy. Anyone who disturbed his wonderful lunch time with the goddess should die!

Luffy fell asleep, and taking a nap was a must for him.

Wu Sheng ignored Sanji's jealousy and continued: "To put it simply, successful cartoonists are at the top of the income pyramid in this country! I roughly understand that first-class cartoonists pay 300 million yen in taxes every year! Income

It may exceed 3 billion! Of course, we are not going to benchmark against the best. If an average cartoonist can be serialized in a weekly, his annual income will be 10 million yen!

If you are lucky and publish a single volume, with a selling price of 440 and a royalty of 40 yuan, then selling 100,000 copies will be 4 million! This is just one volume, if there are 10 copies, it will be 40 million!"

Listening to Wu Sheng talking about a string of figures worth tens of millions, Nami's eyes suddenly shone like never before: "Cartoonists make so much money?"

Wu Sheng crossed his arms and said hummingly: "I haven't included the income after the animation! There are also various peripheral toys and figures, radio dramas! Film and television adaptations! Game adaptations! Add these together, as long as we succeed once

, you can eat it for several years!”

Nami covered her face, this guy is so optimistic, will success be so easy?

"Can it be so easy to succeed? I still have zero foundation now?" Nami said.

"But your drawing skills are very good. I have seen your graffiti when you are bored in class, and your drawing is great!" Wu Sheng gave her a thumbs up: "Just practice more! Take advantage of this time.

We also have free time, so just take the time to practice! You have also read the story I wrote, so you only need to follow my storyboards to finish these 8 episodes!"

Wu Sheng patted his storybook of "Death King's Notes" and said, "As long as you finish drawing, leave the rest to me! A newcomer's serialization costs 6,000-10,000 yen per page, and there are 197 pages in it! On average,

At 8,000 per page, that’s 1,576,000 yen!”

"1.5 million!" Nami's pupils shrank. She usually worked in a restaurant for less than 200,000 a month. If she still had to go to the palace or visit her mother, she might only get over 100,000!

Seeing her excitement, Wu Sheng quickly stepped up his strategy: "Even if we are really too busy, we can still serialize it in a monthly magazine and earn 300,000 yuan a month! Do you want to do odd jobs every day and earn 300,000 yuan a month, or do you want to earn 300,000 yuan a month?

Want to draw every day and earn 300,000 a month?"

Nami clenched her fists. Of course she would be happier drawing every day! When she thought of the days when she could go home and draw every day, she almost jumped with joy.

"Not to mention, the gap between the development space of the two is so huge! After two years of working as a sidekick, I am still working as a sidekick, but Huahua has a chance to reach the top of the pyramid! 3 billion yen a year~" Wu Sheng struck while the iron was hot and continued

lure.

"I..." Nami had already lowered her head and started flipping through the basic comics textbook in her hand.

"After I have money, my sister can buy better sports equipment and attend cram school, and my aunt can also..." Wu Sheng was deducing the follow-up development, and was just halfway through.

"Okay!" Nami interrupted him directly and said firmly: "Takeda! You don't need to continue talking, I'll do it!"

She weighed the books in her hands, "I will finish reading these books before the weekend, and then we will officially start. I will go to the place where I work to resign this afternoon."

Then she looked at Wu Sheng with wide eyes: "I have bet my whole life on this, so you have to write a good story!"

"Hahahaha, are you kidding me? You know my situation. I have bet my whole life on it!" Wu Sheng was very excited.

"Okay! I believe you! Then I'll go back first and race against time!" Nami was about to get up, but she couldn't do it vigorously.

"Wait a minute, is your job far away?

Since you resigned, then there is a shortage of people, right? I will just stay in for a few days to help us earn some money." Wu Sheng stopped her and told her not to leave in a hurry.

"Um, funding?" Nami was a little confused. What kind of funding does it cost to draw comics? She has a brush.

"Drawing comics requires professional brushes, as well as various comic materials, websites, etc. In short, you still need to prepare some things in the early stage. You don't need to worry about these. I will do it all. You just need to learn first." Wu

Sheng patted his chest and embraced it.

"Ah, Takeda-kun is quite reliable!" After hearing this, Nami looked at Wu Sheng with a much gentler look, and gently brushed her side hair that was messed up by the wind: "Then I'll leave it to you, we'll see you in the afternoon

Let’s go there together.”

"Wait!" Sanji on the side suddenly interrupted.

"Huh?" Nami thought he was going to be crazy again, a vein popped out on his forehead, and she was about to use traditional arts to lose her brain.

"You can go work in the shop where I work now. Someone happened to leave yesterday and we are short of people." Sanji said to Wu Sheng.

"You?" Wu Sheng was surprised. Is there a Barati restaurant in this world?

"Ours is a star-rated restaurant, which is different from ordinary restaurants, so the hourly wage for part-time jobs will be much higher." Sanji said with a little embarrassment, stroking his eyebrows and looking at Nami.

"Oh? What's your name? Barati?" Wu Sheng guessed blindly.

"No, you should have heard that it was very popular on the Internet some time ago..." When he said this, he raised his eyebrows, put his hands on his waist, and said in a tone that you are coming to worship me: "I was just listed

A candidate for the world's top 50 restaurants, 'Grand Maison Tokyo'!"

"Never heard of it." Four voices said in unison, but it was Zoro who came back from sword practice and Luffy woke up.

"Uh..." Sanji, who was waiting for a scream, couldn't react when he received this kind of feedback, so he still thrust his penis into his waist.

Then he took a deep breath, and his face clearly showed the disgust of "you are not from the earth": "Forget it, even if I tell you brats, you don't understand, as long as you know it is very powerful."

"Oh oh oh~" Wu Sheng and the others have been focusing on the palace a while ago, and they have no time to pay attention to what restaurants are in the top 50 in the world. However, people are so kind that they can't help but give face, so they said "oh" in unison.

"Tsk!" Looking at the four people who were perfunctory, Sanji took another deep breath angrily and muttered in his heart: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, Nami-san is here. Be elegant and generous, otherwise she will look down on you."

"So are you going or not?" He looked at Wu Sheng and said impatiently.

"Wow, Sanji, you are really a good person!" Luffy looked at him in amazement.

"Don't talk nonsense. I don't want to help this kid. I just want to give Nami a little help. After all, they are preparing to draw comics together, right?" As he said this, Sanji turned his head and looked at Nami affectionately and said:

"Then we have to prepare the best pens, the best paper, and the best paints for Nami-san!"

Nami was a little touched now. She calmed down, ignored Sanji's love, and bowed sincerely: "Thank you very much for your help!"

"Pfft!" Sanji's nose suddenly broke out with nosebleeds. He was immersed in the goddess's thanks, but he had some fantasies about Tao Zi in his mind: "Ah, what should we name our child?"

Wu Sheng quickly patted his face, trying to wake him up, while Nami on the other side immediately covered the collar of her school uniform and stepped back in disgust.

After a while of fussing, everyone finally packed up and headed to their respective classrooms.

"Then I will go directly to the kendo club after school. You can go about your own business." Zoro nodded gently to them and said.

"OK." Wu Sheng gestured.

"Then wait for me at the gate on the first floor of the teaching building after school." Sanji raised his head and squinted at Wu Sheng to signal for gathering after school.

"Okay, please." Wu Sheng looked at the bloody tissue on his nose and said nothing more.

On the way back, Wu Sheng suddenly thought of it and asked Luffy beside him: "Luffy, where do you usually go after school?"

"Ah, let's go home." Luffy was stunned and said directly.

"Don't you join any clubs?"

"It's not interesting. It's more fun to go home and fight with my brother."

"Your brother?"

"Um."

"Um...named Ace?"

"Hey, how did you know?"

"..."

Wu Sheng grinned, "You were talking in your sleep when you were sleeping."

"Oh~"

Wu Sheng didn't ask any more questions. Everyone had their own thoughts and then returned to the classroom to prepare for class.

Nami returned to her seat and started reading the comic tutorial. She planned to read it all this week. Anyway, her homework for the first year of high school was very simple for her, and she could catch up in one go.

Wu Shengze returned to his seat and continued to write the follow-up storyboards of "Notes". With his developed brain, he no longer paid attention to his homework and just did it before the exam.

As for Luffy... he is in a daze, he just doesn't pay attention to his homework...

Now among the Crime World Pirates, only Midori-tou is still worried about homework. After all, his goal is to enter the police system and practice with kendo masters every day, and there are still some performance requirements. (The kendo masters in real life in Japan are basically gathered together.

in the police force)

While Zoro was listening to the lesson, he gritted his teeth and cursed the other three people, they were all beasts!

He also really wants to practice swordsmanship with his eyes closed in class!

------

After school, Wu Sheng walked with Luffy and Nami. The two of them said they also wanted to visit the restaurant called "Grand Maison Tokyo".

What Nami thought was that Wu Sheng went to work for her, so she should politely go along and say thank you again.

To be honest, she knew that she was doing good things in the pirate group, but her own life was very stressful. If she started to act again, it would take up a lot of her time, so she was vaguely worried about her next part-time job and future work.

Conflict of actions.

Aaron had no choice, she had to resist.

Now that Aaron has solved the problem and her life has returned to normal, she has to worry about the cost of living again. Eating is a very realistic and cold thing. Sacrificing your own time and money for the happiness of others, no matter how meaningful and valuable it is,

There will also be a day when the critical point is reached.

But Wu Sheng stood up today and said that he wanted to draw comics with her and make a living from comics. He analyzed a lot of comics, took out a bunch of comics textbooks, and spent a lot of time doing a lot of research after seeing it, which made her feel very sad.

move.

Not just because Wu Sheng remembered her only hobby, but because she knew that her friends had always been aware of her stress and were actively trying to find ways to solve it.

What's more important is that Wu Sheng didn't just talk, but produced nearly 200 pages of excellent storyboards within a week!

After reading it, she knew that this story was great! It could be written into a novel, but Wu Sheng still said that he wanted to make it into a comic!

She knew that more gratitude could be repaid with actions, so she decided to use her best efforts to repay her partners for their care and help.

Wu Sheng, who was walking in front, had no idea how his behavior would be misinterpreted in the girl's mind.

I was just deducing in my mind how long it would take for Nami to start turning the storyboards into original paintings.

This is related to his plan to update the team's equipment. After all, the landlord's family has no surplus food, and it is impossible for him to touch the savings left by Takeda Asahi's parents.

As for Luffy, he just wants to know how delicious the food in the top 50 candidate restaurants in the world will be...
