Reborn Bao Guowei, I really didn’t want to be a great writer!

Chapter 277 Bao Guowei’s new work is released! Mr. Taiyan’s wrath?
On the car, Zhang Taiyan frowned tightly while looking at the scene passing by outside the window.

Artillery fire roared on the front lines of the Central Plains, but naturally there was no sound of gunfire in the rear. Only the sounds of hawking on the streets from time to time, and the melodious sound of gramophones in Western shops.

But Zhang Taiyan is more concerned about the state of pedestrians on the street.

In this era, even in Shanghai, known as the largest city in the Far East, the situation of municipal roads is worrying.

Even on a stone pavement, when a car drives across the street, bursts of dust will still fly up.

"Drive slowly, don't be in a hurry."

Zhang Taiyan, who was still in a hurry and was about to go to Bao Guoweixing to question him, now lost all his previous mood.

On the contrary, he was a little sad. His original anger towards Bao Guowei was now transferred to the government.

"Compared to the last time I came here, it has deteriorated a lot!"

Zhang Taiyan sighed, and then thought about the warlords in the north rising up again, and couldn't help but snorted.

Even a person like Zhang Taiyan couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene.

The amount of money required is huge.

But after leaving her parents, Zhang Nianyue's temperament changed a lot, and she was a little scared when she saw Zhang Taiyan like this.

Whether it was a warlord or a Soviet area, how could Chang Kaishen share the world with others.

She said slightly uneasily.

Even the master came after him from Suzhou. You know what happened last time when Bao Guowei was in the dance hall. Zhang Taiyan didn't say anything. What is the big deal now?

Zhang Taiyan was also a little moved, and held his little daughter in his arms. After not seeing her for a long time, it seemed that Zhang Nianyue had matured a lot, like an adult.

Because Zhang Taiyan arrived temporarily without any advance notice, the Bao Mansion made no preparations at all.

Cao Yanhai, who was on the side, was trembling with fear all the way. After seeing this scene, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"The world situation is changing rapidly. These people don't think about how to cooperate and develop, but only think about fighting for power and profit. From the perspective of the times, such people are nothing more than withered bones in the grave!"

"It's hard for people to prosper, and it's hard for people to die!"

In the context of war, Chang Kaishen not only had to fight a hot war, but also an economic war, not to mention seeking help from Zhang Xueliang in the north.

It was already noon when Zhang Taiyan, Gao Weixin, and Cao Yanhai arrived at Bao Mansion.

Just after getting off the station, Zhang Taiyan was so angry that he was really shocked. He thought his master had done something evil.

I stayed up all night last night, so I didn't wake him up. "

Pedestrians on the road, whether they were wearing short jackets or long gowns, or suits and ties, had tired faces, and some were full of worry.

Seeing Zhang Taiyan, whose beard had turned a lot whiter, Zhang Nianyue also put away her former young lady's temper. Her nose twitched, and she opened her hands to throw herself into Zhang Taiyan's arms.

Where does the money come from? Naturally, the people will suffer.

Hearing this, the expression on Zhang Taiyan's face softened a lot, and he asked as he walked into the lobby.

It is nothing more than the determination to unify China under the wise leadership of Chang Gong.

Zhang Taiyan made a sound of emotion, and his face seemed to have experienced a lot of vicissitudes of life.

"I heard about it. I've read the newspapers. All the gentlemen in Shanghai have been attacked. Public opinion in Shanghai is now in chaos."

After hearing Zhang Taiyan's words, Gao Weixin, who was accompanying him, also looked out the window. Compared to a few months ago, he was obviously much darker, and he had obviously polished his skills.

Then he explained: "Guowei has been writing a work recently and has put a lot of effort into it, so he has been in retreat recently. Even the meals are brought in. He writes when he wakes up and sleeps when he is tired from writing.

This kind of propaganda actually seems a bit ironic in front of the waves of disaster victims.

"Have you heard about the recent news in the market?"

Seeing the scene outside the window, Gao Weixin also frowned, because what he saw at a glance didn't look like a big city.

Lao Bao didn't have time to come back because of things in the store. Zhang Nianyue was the only one at the door, looking at the approaching father with a smile on his face.

Zhang Taiyan also noticed that next door to the charity point, the wall was densely pasted with various promotional posters.

“Where is the future of my country?”

Gao Weixin also often read some newspapers and magazines, listened to the analysis of some famous experts, and said with emotion.

But he could never say these words, so he just patted his shoulder lightly, and then nodded.

"In order to start the war, the government has imposed a lot of additional taxes. Coupled with the impact of the international depression these days, prices have been rising every few days. Ordinary people are just struggling to survive, let alone these refugees. Well, charity is just a drop in the bucket.”

At this time, the car suddenly slowed down a little. Zhang Taiyan looked not far away. It turned out that a group of refugees gathered at the corner of the street, waiting for relief.

Not long after, Zhang Taiyan came out of the father-daughter relationship and spoke in a slightly cold voice.

Zhang Nianyue was a little surprised, the tears in the corners of her eyes had not been wiped off yet. She was afraid that Zhang Taiyan would misunderstand Bao Guowei as disrespectful to his master, and he did not even greet his master when he came.

People like Du Yuesheng would set up some charitable organizations and give alms in the city from time to time, providing some food to the victims who came to flee the disaster, or the poor people who couldn't afford to eat.

But with Zhang Nianyue here and the deep love between father and daughter, for Zhang Nianyue's sake, Zhang Taiyan won't have an attack, right?
After receiving the news, Cao Yanhai had already informed Bao Guowei in the room, but Bao Guowei was still in seclusion and could be said to be completely deaf to what was happening outside the window.

Zhang Nianyue used to have such an arrogant temper. In front of Zhang Taiyan, she dared to directly call him a stinking old man.

"father!"

"Where's Bao Bingwen?"

As soon as he sat down on the Taishi chair, Zhang Taiyan's temper got angry and he said with a cold snort.

"Since you know, why don't you take action? Those people are not just attacking, they simply want to subvert the foundation of China. They talk about obeying the Japanese and want the Japanese to interfere in the politics of China. Even the emperor in the north wants to betray the country. , Relying on the strength of the Japanese to restore the country!

What kind of behavior is this, it makes people want to crush it to ashes! "

Obviously, what happened in these days made Zhang Taiyan extremely angry.

But the most infuriating thing was not this. Zhang Taiyan took out a crumpled report from his arms. It turned out to be a photo of Bao Guowei in the ballroom. It was taken at an unknown time.

"Why didn't Bao Bingwen speak? Is he going to die in the midst of this overwhelming sound? Or is it that Bao Bingwen has lost his former character and spirit? He is unwilling to publish a single article and hides in his room as a Are you being shy?"

"Ah!" Zhang Nianyue exclaimed. She didn't expect Zhang Taiyan to be so angry, so she quickly explained.

"Dad, you may have misunderstood. This seems to be a photo from last time. Bingwen has never been to any dance hall recently."

But Zhang Taiyan obviously didn't come out of nowhere, otherwise he wouldn't have rushed over from Suzhou overnight.

"Look at this report!"

Zhang Nianyue received this report again and was immediately shocked when she saw it, because the photo above was obviously Bao Guowei talking with a group of foreigners.

The central theme expressed in the article is very simple. Bao Guowei colluded with the Americans and became a traitor, helping the Americans to seek their interests in China!
Such remarks sound outrageous, but looking at the above text, it is obviously written by a master and not the random speculation of ordinary tabloids. In fact, I don’t know what kind of connections the reporter had, but he actually found the statement from Citibank and typed out the details.

Since the publication of "The Godfather", it has brought Bao Guowei nearly 50,000 silver dollars in income.

At this time, domestic and foreign communications are still underdeveloped. Everyone only knows that "The Godfather" is popular abroad, but the royalties of 50,000 silver dollars are too exaggerated.

Therefore, the article made malicious speculations that Bao Guowei was bribed by Americans. After graduating from high school, he would change his nationality and go to the United States to become a complete American.

Combined with this, Bao Guowei seems to have disappeared from the world recently.

How could Zhang Taiyan not be angry?

"This this."

Zhang Nianyue didn't know what to say, because the evidence given in this article was too detailed, and even Zhang Nianyue himself didn't know the flow of money in the bank.

She just knew that Bao Guowei had so much money, and she never doubted the origin of the money.

Now that I think about it, there seems to be something wrong?
But as Bao Guowei's fiancée, Zhang Nianyue knew the other party's character and was willing to give Bao Guowei his trust, no matter how convincing the article was.

But she firmly believed that Bao Guowei would not do this.

"Dad, this article is not that rigorous. Very few people have been to the United States, and no one knows the market. Is it possible that we should earn so much money?"

How could Zhang Taiyan listen to this? He waved his hand and said.

"Don't mention this, I went to see Bao Bingwen, and naturally everything came to light. If he wasn't guilty, why would he avoid me?"

His tone was undeniable.

"But." Zhang Nianyue was afraid that Bao Guowei would have any conflict with Zhang Taiyan.

These days, in order to write a novel, Bao Guowei has been in a very irritable state, and even rarely yelled at himself.

This has never happened before.

But Zhang Nianyue is very sensible and takes on everything silently, looking forward to the emergence of a truly good work!
But think about it, refusing is absolutely impossible and will only push the situation to a worse place.

Now that this report has come out, I am afraid that the market's evaluation of Bao Guowei is not so outrageous.

At this sensitive time, letting Bao Guowei come forward to clarify himself is the best way to deal with it.

"Huh? Lao Zhang?"

Bao Guowei, who was sleeping, opened his sleepy eyes and saw Zhang Taiyan with a dusty face and white stubble.

"I guess I'm too tired! After I finish writing this novel, I need to take a good rest. It's completely draining me. I even dream about Lao Zhang. If I sleep for a while and read the moon, don't talk to me. I won't have breakfast. "

For a moment, the faces of several people gathered around the study felt awkward.

The expression on Zhang Taiyan's face had softened a lot after Zhang Nianyue's persuasion, but seeing Bao Guowei's state, his face suddenly became cold and frosty.

There are also those old chapters that make Zhang Taiyan's blood surge.

He got furious, pulled Bao Guowei up and said, "Bao Bingwen, look at the good things you have done! What have you done these days!"

Seeing the dazzling array of manuscript papers on the table, the most eye-catching one is the drawing of a cat with a round face and no ears.

Before, Zhang Taiyan had advised Bao Guowei not to write articles such as "The Condor Shooting". Unexpectedly, he later went even harder and wrote another "The Godfather".

This time, when Zhang Taiyan saw these things, he became very angry. He waved the simple drawing, slapped it in front of Bao Guowei and asked.

"what is this?"

"This is Doraemon."

"What is Doraemon?"

The two people stared at each other.

Suddenly, Bao Guowei shuddered.

This time, he finally woke up.

After reacting, Bao Guowei snatched the simple drawing from Zhang Taiyan's hand with an embarrassed expression on his face.

"Ah hahaha, master, are you here? Master, you look more and more powerful! You can actually pull me up! What do you mean by this manuscript? It's just something I draw for fun when I'm bored. No need to Care too much!”

"Okay, okay! You are all right!" Zhang Taiyan was old after all, and he had no logic when he got angry. He scolded Bao Guowei, and then questioned him.

"What have you been doing these days? Do you know anything about the outside world? What is your relationship with the Americans? Have you been benefited by others? Everything I taught you before was eaten by dogs?"

Bao Guowei looked confused.

What is this all about?

For a moment, I didn't know what to explain.

But what he thought of was not affected by the other party's rebuke at all.

What does it mean to scold my father-in-law?
On the contrary, Bao Guowei was extremely excited, as if he had completed a masterpiece. He simply packed up the manuscripts on the table and then took credit.

"Sir, you can't say that I'm not doing my job properly. I've been tinkering with a big thing these days. I worked hard all night last night and finally it's done. Come and take a look, I'm sure your jaw will drop!"

"???"

The more Zhang Taiyan listened, the more something was wrong. He always felt that the other party was provoking.

Why give me such a big surprise? This Bao Bingwen almost made him lose his temper.

But Zhang Taiyan is still a well-educated person after all. Even if his apprentice does something wrong, he still looks arrogant and domineering.

He just talks louder, but will still give the other party a chance to explain.

Zhang Taiyan took the manuscript away unceremoniously, glared at Bao Guowei, and said threateningly.

"Let me see, if it is still a novel like "The Godfather", I will serve your family well. Even if I risk my old face, I will not let Nianyue follow you!"

"Dad~" Zhang Nianyue said with an aggrieved look.

I immediately made up my mind.

If Lao Zhang really didn't let her and Bao Guowei, she would run out and elope with Bao Guowei herself!

Besides, Bao Guowei, that scumbag, had touched there, how could I not follow him?

At this time, Zhang Taiyan sat down in front of the desk and looked at the manuscript carefully, only to see the title in large characters.

"The Old Man and the Sea"
