Shi Zhijian rubbed his nose, wondering if someone was speaking ill of him behind his back. His nose was always itchy.
At this moment, Shi Zhijian stood at the door of Ni Jian's home in Repulse Bay and rang the doorbell.
Today was the time Ni Jiang promised to hand in the manuscript, so he ran over early in the morning.
Hu Juncai was standing behind him, just in case.
If that guy Ni Jiang is cheating, then Hu Juncai, the lawyer, will come in and take out the contract and all, and approve it indiscriminately.
With a creak, the door of the small villa opened.
A bulldog suddenly jumped out and barked at them fiercely, which startled Shi Zhijian and Hu Juncai.
Hu Juncai was timid and hid behind Shi Zhijian, fearing that the bulldog would pounce on him.
Shi Zhijian got a little bolder and took his foot and was about to kick the dog, but saw Ni Jiang coming out and stopped him: "Ajian, please show mercy!"
Shi Zhijian rolled his eyes, "You are finally willing to give it up? What do you mean by letting the dog bite us? Are you unable to hand in the manuscript and want us to give up and leave immediately?"
Ni Jiang was unshaven, his face was tired, and his eyes were bloodshot, which showed that he had experienced a hellish life in the past few days.
"How could it be? How could I be that kind of person? As soon as I heard the doorbell, I knew it was you who was coming, so I rushed out and lined up to welcome you!"
Shi Zhijian pointed to the bulldog: "Are you lining up with it?"
Ni Jiang rolled his eyes: "I can't help you, go in first!"
…
Ni Jiang is a literati, and literati are generally very coquettish, which can be seen from the furnishings at home.
There are antiques, porcelain, chess, calligraphy and paintings, but most of them are "arts" that have little to do with art, such as red bellybands embroidered with large lotus flowers, and small shoes that can only be worn with three-inch golden lotuses.
, and some other weird stuff.
Hu Juncai was holding his briefcase, as if he had entered a museum, looking at this and touching that. He saw a bell the size of a walnut, which was very interesting. He stretched out his hand to touch it when Ni Jiang, who was pouring wine, stopped and said, "Don't touch it."
!”
Hu Juncai was startled.
Shi Zhijian felt that Ni Jiang was making such a fuss, "It's just a broken bell. Don't scare us, Lawyer Hu!"
"What kind of broken bell? You don't know the goods! That's a treasure from my collection. It came from Burma. It's only for beauties!"
Ni Jiang handed the poured brandy to Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian took the wine and was about to ask what kind of treasure it was when he heard a voice coming from upstairs: "Is it Ajian here?"
Footsteps thump thump!
"Old Xiong? Why are you here?" Shi Zhijian looked at the big-headed Gu Long in surprise.
The big head looks similar to that of Ni Ji, also like a savage, with an unshaven face and a tired look.
"I'm staying here in seclusion these days!"
"I asked him to go to the hotel but he didn't go. He insisted on staying here shamelessly and almost drank all my brandy!" Ni Jian looked unhappy.
"Drink as much as you want, and I'll buy it back for you when the time comes!" Big Head said, and went to the wine cabinet to skillfully pour himself a glass of foreign wine.
"Buy wine? Do you have money?" Ni Jiang rolled his head.
The big head said directly: "I don't have any money, so I ask you for it! My "Legend of Iron Blood" has been serialized in "Ming Pao". According to the contract, I will get three thousand for use first!"
Ni Jiang rolled his eyes again, "You think I'm a deadbeat? I've already prepared it for you!" After saying that, he took out a check from his pocket and handed it to Big Head, "Take the HSBC cashier's check, don't do it.
Throw it away! Also, buy the best brandy and replenish my wine cabinet!"
The big head was not polite, he casually grabbed the check into a ball and stuffed it into his butt pocket, raised his glass to Shi Zhijian with a smile and said: "Ajian, you came just in time, I happened to have some problems in creation, and I want to ask you for advice.
!”
Shi Zhijian was most afraid of asking for advice, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "How can I help you, Old Xiong? You'd better figure it out on your own!"
Big Head looked disappointed.
Ni Jiang, on the other hand, ran to the study and took the "Myth" script and delivered it.
"Here, this is the script I wrote. I pay you and deliver it!"
Shi Zhijian asked Hu Juncai to give 30,000 yuan to Ni Jiancheng.
Ni Jiang took the money and counted it again, and said with excitement: "The happiest thing in the world is this, a thousand-yuan bill rolling back and forth on your fingertips!"
Shi Zhijian read the script, and it turned out to be really sharp. He wrote 60,000 words in just three days, and the content was highly restored. This Ni Jiang is really a genius.
The big head didn't want to give up yet, so he approached Shi Zhijian with a foreign wine, "Ah Jian, what do you think of the name of the villain I conceived? White-haired Yin Ji? Divine water Yin Ji?"
Shi Zhijian was reading the script and casually said: "How wonderful the Jellyfish Yinji is!"
"Huh?" Big Head was stunned for a moment.
Ni Jiji, who was counting money, also raised his head and looked at Shi Zhijian in surprise: "What did you say? Jellyfish? To popularize marine life for readers?"
But the big head became excited, "This is great! This is great! Jellyfish Yin Ji, that sounds so exciting! When you hear it, you sound like an incredible strong woman!"
"Come on, mother! It's obvious that this guy said it casually, do you believe it?" Ni Jiang felt like his IQ was being crushed by Shi Zhijian every time.
In fact, Big Head also asked him this question, and Ni Jiang's answer was "White-haired Witch", which was obviously copying Liang Yusheng's "White-haired Witch".
Now Shi Zhijian's "Jellyfish Yin Ji" directly crushed his "white-haired enchantress", which made him feel a little unbalanced.
"But how should this character be set up? What are her characteristics?" The big head once again looked expectantly at Shi Zhijian, not at Ni Jiji, whom he often asked for advice.
On the surface, Ni Jiang was unhappy that Big Head was living in his home, but in fact he felt very comfortable in his heart, especially the low profile of Big Head when he asked for advice, which fully satisfied his little desire to be competitive.
After all, Big Head is a figure who can keep pace with the leader Jin Yong. Even such a big man needs to consult himself from time to time. That kind of psychological satisfaction and vanity are instantly overwhelming.
But now, Big Head has chosen the far side instead of the near, and would rather consult Shi Zhijian than himself. This makes Ni Jiaqing so embarrassed. Am I really no better than this kid?
"What's the point of this? A strong woman, she dares to love and hate, and kills people like crazy! Her hair turned gray overnight because of love!" Ni Jiang accidentally ran away to "White-haired Witch" again.
The big head turned back and glared at him, meaning to shut up Ni Jiji.
Ni Jiang was hurt by Big Head's merciless eyes. Before Shi Zhijian didn't come, Big Head's eyes were full of admiration.
Shi Zhijian looked at the big head that was looking at him eagerly, and for the first time he felt his thirst for knowledge.
"Actually, it's easy for you to write this Jellyfish Yinji well."
"What's the easy way?"
Ni Jiji next to him also pricked up his ears.
Shi Zhijian: "She is tall, masculine in appearance, likes beautiful women, and hates men in the world. She is the most terrifying woman in the book, the woman with the highest martial arts skills, and the smartest woman at the same time."
The eyes of the big head were shining, and the wine in his hand was shaking.
Ni Jiang was even more astonished. He couldn't understand why Shi Zhijian had such unique skills casually.
Shi Zhijian looked at the stunned two people and didn't want to say more. He just reminded Big Head before leaving: "Remember, there will be another chapter push!"
