Chapter 31 The Real World Part 3
By the time Liu Yuxi finished writing her three novels, it would be the end of August, which would average out to one novel per month, assuming it wouldn't interfere with her house sales.
After all, she is still a real estate agent. She hasn't neglected her live streaming, but she has less time to go out and play. During her rest time, she goes to the bookstore to devour thick books. She feels that her temperament has improved a lot now, hehe!
By the end of August, half of the first floor of their company had been rented out. In September, a telecommunications store will be coming to renovate. Since the store is coming, the company's office supplies need to be tidied up, mainly desks, computers, and chairs.
So, on the last day of August, the store manager asked everyone to move these things to a conference room on the second floor. Apart from the store manager, there were only two male colleagues in the company. One of them had gone to help a client with the transfer of ownership and wouldn't be back until 4 or 5 pm. But even though there were few men, they still had to move them.
Liu Yuxi tried out the desk. It was quite heavy for a normal person. Two people would have to carry it upstairs, with the person at the back bearing most of the weight. Carrying eight desks upstairs would probably exhaust them. Should I help or not?
She was a little conflicted, but decided to help anyway, otherwise she'd probably be busy all day, and she didn't want to spend the whole day on this. So she told the store manager and the others, "I'll move the tables, you guys pack everything up first!"
To shut up some nonsense and not waste time, she walked directly to a table with nothing on it, lifted it up with both hands, and judging from her relaxed expression, she didn't even have to use any strength.
"Wow, Sister Liu, you're so strong!" Her colleagues surrounded her, chattering away. Liu Yuxi said helplessly, "I told you, I've trained!"
Her colleagues thought she was just bragging before, but now they all believed her. After her colleagues tidied up the computers and other miscellaneous items, Liu Yuxi quickly moved all the tables upstairs to the conference room and stacked them up.
Thanks to Liu Yuxi's hard work, everything that needed to be moved upstairs was done in half a day. After cleaning up again, the store manager took everyone out for a meal, and then let everyone go home to rest early in the afternoon.
When Liu Yuxi got home, she did nothing but select one of her novels and publish it on the "Yangshizi" website. She uploaded 20,000 words, and the author's backend notified her that she had signed a contract.
After signing the contract and waiting for the review, I copied and pasted the rest into the drafts folder and waited for the review to be approved. After signing the contract, I uploaded two chapters of about 4000 words a day as required by the website.
Once the article reaches 8 words, the website starts recommending novels to suitable readers using big data.
Only then did Liu Yuxi start looking at the data in the author's backend. Seeing the daily increase in the number of readers, an indescribable sense of satisfaction welled up within him.
Busy days always fly by. While publishing his novel, Liu Yuxi also continued to adapt new novels.
When she published her third romance novel, the editor Yang Shizi had assigned to her contacted her, saying that an entertainment company had taken a liking to her first novel and wanted to adapt it into a film or television series.
Because of the signed contract, Yang Shizi handled all the negotiations with the entertainment company. In the end, all she had to do was wait to get paid. Thanks to the advanced information technology available today, even though she was a newcomer, through Yang Shizi's negotiations, the copyright could eventually sell for over a million.
Of course, she should only get half of it, but that's still her income, and for an ordinary person, it's a small fortune.
The editor only mentioned this to her in advance, and since she was notified, the matter was settled.
Now Liu Yuxi is even more motivated to write novels. Is this a novel? No, this is just small change. She has adapted four idol drama romance novels in total.
The fifth book is a palace intrigue novel, which is what she is currently writing, although she has been spending her recent months of rest at bookstores devouring large volumes.
She also had time to read other people's classic works, but her writing skills were still a bit lacking, so the adaptation of this novel was a bit slow.
Liu Yuxi is a bit of a perfectionist and has obsessive-compulsive disorder. Of course, the main reason is that she feels she has plenty of time and is not in a hurry. If all else fails, she will travel through time once and study in the world she travels to for a lifetime. She doesn't believe that her writing skills will still be insufficient when she comes back!
And so it went until the copyright fee was deposited into her account. The entertainment company never asked Liu Yuxi if she was willing to participate in the script adaptation work. After all, she was a newcomer, and without Yang Shizi, it was hard to say whether she would even receive the copyright fee.
Moreover, her novels really don't need much alteration; the screenwriter can tell as soon as they get their hands on them. However, if any actor wants to add scenes, there's nothing Liu Yuxi can do to stop them.
All she could convey through Yang Shizi was, "Please try to stay as close to the original work as possible!" After all, the original work guaranteed high viewership!
The National Day holiday has arrived. Although it's only a two-day break, Liu Yuxi still decided to go out and have some fun. She's been working on the wording of her novel a bit too hard lately.
There are too many people traveling during the National Day holiday. She has trypophobia and wants to relax, not go to see crowds of people.
So she didn't go to any tourist attractions. Instead, she found a guesthouse in the suburbs of Hefei, ate local dishes, fished, rode horses, and strolled around the village. After two days of this, she felt much more relaxed.
These past two days, she hasn't been writing novels or contacting clients. She's just been livestreaming for two days straight. She hasn't sung or shown her face; the camera is always facing outwards. With her commentary, she takes her viewers on a virtual farm trip.
Surprisingly, there were quite a few tips, and the viewers seemed to enjoy it! Indeed, the wishes of working people are too humble; even a two-day trip to a farmhouse is too much for many people to spare.
Liu Yuxi now has 100,000 followers. She never asks for gifts during her live streams, nor does she engage in PK battles with other streamers. Whether or not to give gifts is up to her, and she has not deliberately closed the gift channel. Who would complain about having too much money? However, she never accepts commercial advertisements.
After returning from her trip, life returned to its usual routine. Once she received the copyright fee, she transferred 20 yuan to her mother and showed her the author's backstage profile and the contracts she had signed.
Her mother felt at ease accepting the money, and secretly transferred another 50,000 yuan to her father as pocket money. Although they both had retirement pensions, the saying still holds true: money is not as important as feelings, but money is the catalyst for the sublimation of feelings, regardless of feelings!
When Liu Yuxi experienced another writer's block, she had to admit that she couldn't achieve fluency in writing in a short period of time; to produce eloquent prose, one needed a profound cultural foundation.
She resigned herself to her fate; she still had to time travel, so she might as well go through it. After all, others wanted to time travel but didn't have the chance! So, on the night before her day off, Liu Yuxi contacted Xiao Liu and began her fourth time travel.
