Earlier, when the Nakamori family in Kiyose Town was picking up newspapers, they also received an email,
The slightly thick envelope is signed to Nakamori Akina and Nakamori Akiho.
"Akina, Akiho, I have your mail~" Akio Nakamori said to the two people who were washing after getting it, and put it on the table in the living room.
"Our letter?" The two little ones ran over and opened it happily.
"There are two books~" Nakamori Akiho took out the book and a postcard fell down.
Akina Nakamori picked it up and wrote on it:
"Akarina-san, Akiho-san, recently published a novel, please read it! Nagayama Naoki~"
"Naoki-san published a novel!" x2
Akina Nakamori and the two quickly opened the novel,
"Did Naoki-san actually become a writer? "Summer Garden" is about this summer? It's really amazing~"
"This is incredible!" Akio Nakamori, who was reading the newspaper at the side, also heard, "That young man actually has such a talent..."
Chieko started to look at the two of them at the dinner table and was a little angry: "Akina, Akiho, don't look at things while eating!"
"Hi!" The two of them stuffed the novel into their schoolbags. They had to go to school.
Akio Nakamori on the side silently put down the newspaper in his hand...
...
The literary circle did not react much to a newcomer's novel.
There are countless new authors jumping out every year, but most of them never get better after their first batch of releases.
Let alone additional printings, the publisher would be thankful if the first batch could be sold out.
Even if the sales of the first book are okay, there are very few people who can persist and become professional writers.
This author named Ting Shu may be just one of thousands of people who have fallen into the street.
Only the editor of "Summer Garden", Kunji Morikawa, was very confident in this book and actively submitted it for the RB Children's Literature Scholars Association Newcomer Award and the Children's Literature Newcomer Award.
At this time, Naoki Nagayama had already put aside the novel and devoted his attention to the decoration of his new house.
Yes, the transfer of ownership of Chiyoda's two-story building has been completed. Nagayama Naoki plans to redecorate it in the Nordic style that he prefers. Of course, it must be combined with the Japanese style of the courtyard.
For such a difficult task, Naoki Nagayama asked Takashi Honma, whom he had collaborated with before, to help.
"Takashi-san, this is how I think about the new house. Don't you think something is unclear?" Naoki Nagayama took the designer to Chiyoda's two-story building and explained to him in detail his favorite style and style.
Budget, especially to build a piano room with better sound insulation on the second floor.
"Naoki-san, it's a bit difficult to combine the two styles, and if you want to keep the solid wood floors and corridors and courtyards, hey... you need to design it carefully."
Takashi Honma's little notebook is full of important points. This kind of private customization business does not happen often, but it is a challenge every time.
He gave the key to the house to Takashi Honma to facilitate subsequent design preparations such as measurements and drawings. Naoki Nagayama agreed with him to come up with the design drawings by the end of September and strive to complete the decoration by the end of October.
Next, two shops were signed. Fujita Keiko was indeed very capable and quickly contacted suitable tenants. The monthly rent for the shop in Akihabara was 500,000 yuan, while the shop in Shibuya could actually reach 1 million. The difference was almost one million yuan.
times.
After sighing with emotion about the comfortable life of a landlord, Nagayama Naoki once again suppressed the idea of investing in land. It would be better to wait for now. Isn't it better to be a landlord? Let's stop being a house slave for the time being.
...
...
"Naoki-san! Good evening~" The voice on the other end of the phone was still full of energy.
"This voice is Akina-san!" Nagayama Naoki was also very happy. It seemed that he hadn't heard Akina's energetic voice for a long time.
"Hi, I'm the energetic Akina Nakamori~ Hahaha" she said in a child's voice and couldn't help but laugh...
"Haha, Akina-san, are you going to tell me about Mancai?"
"That's not true~" the little girl returned to her true self, "I received Naoki-san's novel yesterday, and I came here to let you know~"
"Oh? Have you seen it? How do you feel?" Nagayama Naoki asked curiously.
"I've already read it. As for the content, Akiho-chan even cried in the afternoon~"
Then I heard a noisy female voice on the other side of the microphone, mixed with words such as ‘What did you say~’ ‘Aren’t you crying too~’ ‘Speak to me properly’.
After a while, the phone finally became quiet.
"Private Marseille, Naoki-san, there was a cockroach that disturbed me just now! It's gone now~"
hehe.....
"Hey, so the novel is okay~" Nagayama Naoki decisively ignored the previous sentence.
"Yes, yes, Naoki-san suddenly became a writer, which shocked us all!"
"It's just a coincidence~"
"I feel that the stories in Naoki-san's novels are very real. Are they real experiences? Which of the protagonists is Naoki-san? Mr. Cucumber?"
"Arnold, he's not based on me... and why am I Cucumber King..."
"Oh, isn't it...because Naoki-san is tall and thin~" I didn't expect Akina to have so many problems, "Then the grandfather living in the old house and the courtyard full of cosmos are not real. Of?"
"This, I can't say it's fake..." There is indeed an old man living in the old house downstairs, and the yard was indeed tricked by Naoki Yongshan and planted with cosmos. When I saw it before, , a neat little patch has grown.
"The courtyard and the old man are actually downstairs of my house."
"Eh? Is it true? Is it true that there are three children?"
"Those were three elementary school students from nearby. I happened to see them during the summer vacation..."
"Hey!!! The characters in the story! I really want to take a look~" Akina Nakamori thought with admiration, then took away the microphone and seemed to say to the side, "Akiho-chan, did you hear that, the characters in the story It’s all true~”
Naoki Nagayama heard this statement: "Although it may break your imagination, novels are novels and they are made up. The plot and the reality are completely different~"
"Hey~~ It feels very real..." Akiho's voice came from next to Akina: "Ah, the novel era is different~"
Another slapstick fight...
"Akina-san? Akiho-san?" Nagayama Naoki had to give birth to call the two of them back.
"Hi, Private Marseille~ It's all Akina-chan's fault!" Akina finally came back, "Naoki-san, can you go and see that courtyard in the future?"
"Of course you can, but the cosmos haven't bloomed yet."
"Ah, when will it open?"
"It will probably be around October~"
"That's it, it's only for two weeks. Can Naoki-san take us to see it then?"
