Goldfinger is a bit strange

Chapter 720: Don’t delay the next generation (1/2)

In Liu Qingshan's memory, it was not until decades later that the "untalkative" writer touched the Nobel Prize for Literature.

But in Liu Qingshan's view, "Ordinary World" is undoubtedly more outstanding and more deserving of the award.

So last year, he introduced Writer Lu and his elder brother-in-law to Victor, and together with the translation team, carefully translated both books abroad, and then published and sold them.

Now it seems that the influence has come out. After all, it is not easy to be nominated.

Liu Qingshan wanted to call Jiapigou right now to tell Writer Lu the good news.

However, he still forced himself to resist this impulse, sat back in his seat, and calmed down his excitement: "Victor, what do we need to do next?"

Liu Qingshan's meaning was very clear, just to ask Victor if he needed public relations or something like that.

Victor shook his head: "Let everything take its course, maybe there will be a big surprise."

This is true, there are many such examples: some people have made important research results, even caused a sensation, and thought they could win the award steadily, so they lobbied everywhere, but in the end, they didn't even get a nomination.

Especially for the literary award, there is no first place in literature, which is not just a tradition in the Chinese literary world, so the literary award has always been the most controversial award.

Liu Qingshan had to give up. He was thinking about returning the check of two million US dollars to Victor and asking him to use it as a public relations fee.

After talking about this, Liu Qingshan called Jiapigou to find his brother-in-law and writer Lu.

After hanging up the phone and waiting for half an hour, he called again. This time, it was Gao Wenxue who answered the phone:

"Sanfeng, what do you want to talk to us about? Brother Wang and I are working in the fields together."

Liu Qingshan smiled: These two brothers are really good, let's do "get up early in the morning to clean up the wasteland, and return home with a hoe under the moonlight", right?

So he smiled and said, "Of course it's a good thing. Mr. Victor just sent me two checks, 500,000 from Brother Wang and 300,000 from you, both in US dollars."

There was a hearty laugh on the phone, and then the person who answered the phone was Lu Writer:

"That's really good, Qingshan, this money, my brother Wenxue and I have discussed it, we won't take it, just leave it with you."

Of course they knew that Liu Qingshan paid for the food and accommodation expenses during the six months abroad, plus the money spent on hiring those translators and professors, so this money was not enough.

"This is your royalties, why give it to me, I definitely don't want it."

Of course Liu Qingshan refused immediately. He didn't need this little money, and the most important thing was that it was not justifiable.

Writer Lu on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, and then he said:

"Then you can help us donate it, donate it to domestic literary awards, and let more writers benefit, at least it can increase the prize money and improve life."

He has personal experience. It was because of the Jiapigou Literary Award that he got rid of the predicament of life and his health slowly recovered.

Writer Lu has never lacked feelings, but he was trapped in the current situation and was powerless.

Now that he has this opportunity, he certainly knows how to be grateful and know how to give back.

"Okay."

Liu Qingshan can understand Writer Lu's feelings. As for the eldest brother-in-law, does our family still need this little money?

After talking about serious matters, Liu Qingshan joked: "Brother Wang, and the eldest brother-in-law, you two have made me suffer!"

"Qingshan, what do you mean?" Writer Lu still believed it.

Liu Qingshan glanced at the three checks on the table: "You all donated, so of course I have to donate my royalties. Mine is two million, and now I am heartbroken!"

Hahaha!

The laughter of two writers came from the other end of the phone.

Gao Wenxue grabbed the microphone again: "Sanfeng, if you earn more, donate more. By the way, we also have good news to tell you. Brother Wang and I have received notifications that our works have been shortlisted for the third Mao Dun Literature Award!"

This is indeed good news. The third literature award is for literary works from 1985 to 1988.

Moreover, this year's award is also recognized as the most outstanding one, with two masterpieces, The World and Funeral. Now there is Gao Wenxue's desire, which is even more brilliant.

Liu Qingshan first congratulated the two people, and then smiled: "Then donate this money to the Literature Award Review Committee."

"By then, you can also get more bonuses."

This joke is a bit funny, even the people in the room can't help but curl up their lips.

"Liu, it's better to donate after the election, otherwise, it will be suspected of bribery." Victor also joked.

It's true that this order is really important, otherwise it can't be explained clearly.

The selection of literary works will only start at the end of this year, and it may take one or two years.

In fact, the third literary award was not awarded until 1991 in the Great Hall.

It is estimated that this money can only be put aside for two years.

Liu Qingshan continued the call: "Brother Wang, I also have good news. Mr. Victor brought it and said that you have been nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Congratulations."

There was silence on the other end of the phone. After a long time, the voice of Lu Writer with a little sob came: "Qingshan, thank you, thank you for everything you have done for me."

"I didn't want to win the award before, because I even had to borrow money for travel expenses to receive the award, but now, I'm not afraid!"

After hearing these heartfelt words, Liu Qingshan felt a lot of emotion in his heart. He glanced at the three checks on the table, which totaled 2.8 million.

Let's just round it up to 3 million.

This money will be directly deposited in the bank first, and then donated after the evaluation of this year's literary award is completed.

It is estimated that by then, the prize money will be increased tenfold, from 5,000 yuan to 50,000 yuan, which will be enough.

Liu Qingshan was about to end the call, but two clear and pleasant voices came on the phone:

"Brother, brother, when will you come back? We all miss you!"

Liu Qingshan's mouth corners couldn't help but curl up: it seems that the fourth and fifth children have lunch break.

"Brother, wait for the autumn harvest holiday, we will go to the capital to see you!" The little fourth child's trumpet voice came again.

"No, I'll go back after the National Day."

Liu Qingshan hurriedly stopped her. If the little girl said she would come, she would definitely find a way to come.

"Then it's settled. Don't regret it. How about we make a pinky promise?" Liu Qingshan could feel the sweet smile on his sister's face even though they were thousands of miles apart.

Can we make a pinky promise over the phone line? Okay, let's just make a verbal agreement.

Liu Qingshan chatted with the two little girls for a while until the phone ran out of battery, and then he hung up.

Looking at the time, it was indeed noon. Liu Qingshan said, "Let's go and have lunch first."

Gu Victor and others came all the way to show their support, so of course they had to treat them well. Besides, they were also purchasing goods.

Everyone went downstairs together, but found that the store seemed to be more crowded than before, especially in front of the counter selling Songjiang green rice. The people queuing had already left the store door.

It turned out that someone was buying Songjiang green rice, and somehow it got out that it was specially provided for the big leaders to eat, so the people were also enthusiastic.

The price is a bit expensive, but you can buy less, buy 10 or 8 kilograms, and save it for porridge.

When Liu Qingshan saw this, the salesmen couldn't leave, so he could only bring the food back to them.

After a busy day, the store closed on time at 6 o'clock in the evening.

Everyone got together to count today's accounts, and finally the boss announced happily:

"Our sales today totaled 358,100 yuan, a good start, a good start!"

This is not counting the batch of tiger bone wine ordered by Victor, otherwise, the sales would be even higher.

And the old mountain ginseng basically accounted for more than half, so the other goods together only sold more than 100,000, Liu Qingshan felt that it was just average.

Perhaps as the name of Jiapigou Mountain Goods Store gradually spreads, other consumers in the city will also be attracted, and then the turnover can increase a little.

But others didn't think so. Liu Wenjuan seemed very excited: 150,000 a day, that would be more than 4 million a month, and how much a year?

In fact, the account is not calculated in this way. On the first day of opening, it must be more. In the future, if there can be tens of thousands of daily turnover, it will be considered a lot.

But everyone was happy, so Liu Qingshan didn't spoil their fun. Anyway, as long as this mountain product store didn't lose money, it would be a big profit.

If you don't make money from other things, you will be satisfied with this piece of land.

In the evening, you naturally have to reward your employees well. Liu Qingshan was busy going to a restaurant, but was stopped by Liu Wenjuan.

In the afternoon, it was not so busy. She had already arranged two subordinates to buy vegetables and cook. Going to a restaurant every day, you must eat out sooner or later. You can't live so extravagantly.

Liu Qingshan looked around and saw that there were no outsiders, all of them were locals, so he nodded and agreed.

After dinner, Secretary Wang and Lao Zhou chatted with Liu Qingshan alone for a while.

After hearing Liu Qingshan say that he would go home after the National Day, the two men were relieved and prepared to go back tomorrow.

Lao Zhou used to work in the Commercial Bureau. He was a business person, so he discussed with Liu Qingshan whether some of the special products of Bishui County could be transported to the Jiapigou Mountain Goods Store for sale.

Milk powder, fermented bean curd, etc. produced in BR County, these side dishes, are also in short supply in the city.

Liu Qingshan nodded in agreement, of course, even for the transportation problem, large trucks cannot always be used. It would be better if the county could come forward to solve the problem of train cars.

After seeing off the parents, Liu Qingshan worked in the mountain goods store for a few days.

As expected, the sales gradually stabilized at more than 20,000.

As the National Day was approaching, Liu Qingshan began to get busy again, because people from all walks of life of Longteng Company gathered in the capital, and everyone rushed back to attend Ma Laosan's wedding.

First, more than ten people came back from Hong Kong Island, including the tanned Xiao Wu, who brought back a lot of gems.

In addition, Hou San from Heihe brought his wife Anna and came all the way to attend the wedding.

Anna's belly was already slightly bulging.

Seeing Xiao Wu, Hou San was shocked: "Wu Zi, you really didn't stay in Africa in vain!"

After that, he laughed again: "Why didn't you bring back a black girl?"

"Who is as useless as you."

Xiao Wu immediately retorted, and everyone gathered together, anyway, there was no seriousness.

Hou San looked at Ma Lao San: "Let's not quarrel for now, the real master is here, we are both ranked third, how about I be your best man?"

"Brother Hou, can we take a look in the mirror ourselves?" Ma Laosan said with a smile.

Hou San rolled his eyes: "Then it would be nice to ask Qingshan to be your best man."

Ma Laosan looked at Liu Qingshan carefully, and then shook his head: "No, no, if Qingshan stands next to me, then all the guests will look at him."

He is really difficult to maintain, not only ugly, but also too handsome.

Hou San walked around the crowd and said, "By the way, come on, Gangzi. You are neither ugly nor handsome, and you just meet the requirements."

"Brother Hou, you might as well just say that I am a public face." Gangzi replied angrily.

Then he pulled Xiaomei next to him: "We have already discussed it. We all live in different parts of the world, and it is not easy to get together once. Why don't Xiaomei and I hold the wedding together and join in the fun?"

When everyone heard this, they cheered loudly. Xiao Wu looked at Brother Da Fei in the crowd: "There is another couple here, let's do it together!"

Speaking of Gangzi and Xiaomei, as well as Brother Dafei and Li Xuemei, they have been together for several years, but there has been no ceremony, so it is time to do so.

As soon as everyone connected, the matter was settled. In Hou San's words: This is called driving a sheep, and herding three sheep.

Among the shareholders of Longteng, except for the old squad leader and a few who are a few years older and have married, the rest are single.

Hou San started to organize: "Who else is a bachelor? Please pay close attention and don't delay the next generation!"

Everyone looked at Anna and smiled.

Hou San immediately pointed the finger at Liu Qingshan: "You are the boss, so you should take the lead."

"Qingshan doesn't have a good choice now." Xiao Wu joked with a smile:

"Qingshan, why don't you join Lilan's nationality? As long as you can afford it, you can marry as many as you want. A chief I know is a good guy. He has more than thirty wives and more than a hundred children. I estimate He can’t even remember his own son.”

Liu Qingshan rolled his eyes at Xiao Wu: "Your kid is always there and doesn't want to come back. Is that your plan?"

As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately pointed their fingers at Xiao Wu and rushed forward. Wang Zhan and Dingshan and others pushed Xiao Wu to the ground and made a look like an airplane:

"Recruit or not, hurry up and tell the truth honestly. Our policy is to be lenient if you confess, and strict if you resist!"

Xiaowu also immediately became scared: "Don't delay the business, quickly send a car to pick up Gangzi and Dafei's family."

Yes, there was no need to delay this, so Liu Qingshan quickly sent a car to Chuncheng to pick up Gangzi's four relatives.

As for the new houses, Gangzi and Fei Ge already have them here in the capital. They are small courtyard houses, and Uncle Mao'er and the others helped to find them.

Moreover, the new house has been decorated, and they will not live here permanently. They can simply buy some wedding supplies.

Anyway, there were many people, and these few were not short of money. The large team of people went out and started to take care of it immediately.

Not to mention, in the past two years, group weddings have really become popular in big cities, and they can be considered fashionable.

The earth was hazy, and there was a ruined city, silent and lifeless in the dim red rain of blood.

The streets that used to be bustling with people are now desolate.

The sandy dirt road that used to be bustling with people is no longer noisy now.

Only blood and mud mixed with minced meat, dust, and paper were left, indistinguishable from each other, which was shocking.

Not far away, a broken carriage was stuck deep in the mud, full of sadness. Only an abandoned rabbit doll hung on the shaft, swaying in the wind.

The white fluff has long been soaked into wet red, full of eerieness.

The turbid eyes seemed to have some residual resentment, looking lonely at the mottled rocks in front of them.

There, a figure was lying down.

This was a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, his clothes were torn and covered with dirt, and he had a broken leather bag tied around his waist.

The young man squinted his eyes and remained motionless. The biting cold penetrated his worn coat from all directions and spread throughout his body, gradually taking away his body temperature.
