Twenty minutes later, Fan Lun rushed back to the cafe out of breath and signed a three-month contract with Lynn.

The contract requires Linn to provide at least twenty-four short stories of over 10,000 words within three months, and the newspaper will regularly pay royalties at the price of one gold coin per thousand words.

"Isn't the payment for two articles written into the contract?" Lin asked while flipping through the pages.

"Ah, we can just agree verbally. I trust your character." Of course it was impossible for Fan Lun to write it. If it was written in the contract, how could he pocket the royalties when something unexpected happened?

"Okay, no problem, I signed it." Linn pretended not to know anything and signed the contract neatly.

"Okay, okay." Fan Lun put the contract into his briefcase, "On my way to get the contract, I happened to help you figure out where to live."

"Tell me about it."

"Let's talk while we're walking." Fan Lun wanted to finish Linn's renting a house as quickly as possible.

He is a very efficient person.

Even though the other person has his own little thoughts, Lin En still likes to deal with this kind of person.

"Is the place you mentioned far away? Mr. Linn's legs are not convenient for walking for too long." Arthur acted like Linn's personal bodyguard.

"It's easy, I have a car." Fan Lun hurriedly left the cafe alone.

In less than ten minutes, a car stopped in front of the coffee shop.

"A newspaper editor can actually afford a car, which shows that he has made a lot of money over the years." Arthur said softly.

"If he had a car, why didn't he drive it when he came to the coffee shop?" Matt was puzzled.

"Maybe he wants to save some gas money. Who can guess such a stingy and greedy person?" Arthur raised his eyebrows.

Lynn stood up on crutches: "Matt, you go back to work first. Arthur and I will be fine here. We will go find you after all the things here are taken care of."

"Then be careful." Matt nodded.

The three of them went out together.

Fan Lun, who had just gotten out of the car, saw Matt leaving and asked, "Is this him?"

"I asked him to send a letter to my father." Lin En said.

"Then how will he join us later?"

"We no longer meet, he is free." Lin En replied calmly, "He no longer has to serve me, and I no longer have to bear one more person's living expenses."

Fan Lun didn't think much about it, he just thought it was quite reasonable.

With stable royalties and a place to live, I told Mrs. Lin that there was really no need to keep a follower.

"Then let's go." Fan Lun invited Linn and Arthur into the car and drove towards the place he wanted. "The place we are going to is quite close to the city center. It is convenient for whatever we do and the environment is also good."

It’s good, it’s suitable for rest, and the rent is very reasonable, only seven gold coins a month.”

Lin En's mouth twitched when he heard this number.

He expected that Fan Lun would find a place with a higher price and make more money from it, but he did not expect that the price would be so high. Three months of rent would cover his two manuscript fees.

"If you think that Mr. Lin En comes from a wealthy family and has high requirements for these things, you are totally wrong. Mr. Lin En is never extravagant and wasteful, so you should find a place with better value for money." Arthur said for Lin En.

.

"Really?" Fan Lun felt a little disappointed, "There is another good place, just one street away from our newspaper office. The house is big and has everything. The monthly rent is five gold coins."

"As an editor, how come you know so much about rental information?" Linn didn't rush to agree.

"Many renters will place advertisements in our newspapers, and I know a little bit about it. If you are not satisfied with this, I remember that there are also apartments for rent near Clayton Park. You can go to the park to relax every day.

.The most important thing is that this apartment provides three meals a day. But if you have requirements for meals, you will have to pay extra.”

The price of the apartment shouldn't be ridiculously high, so Linn asked, "How much does this cost?"

"This month's rent is only three gold coins, which can be said to be very affordable." Fan Lun said.

Matt's hard-earned month's salary was barely enough to rent a single room in an apartment near an apartment in a wealthy area.

Lin En decided to rent this one: "That's it."

"Okay." Fan Lun couldn't help laughing.

For this kind of apartment, he wouldn't make much money as a middleman, at most one gold coin in three months.

Having a car is convenient. It didn't take long for the group to arrive near Clayton Park. Fan Lun parked the car in front of a row of apartments: "This is it. You can rest in the car first, and I'll go find the person in charge here.

For the procedure, we will choose the one with the best location for you.”

"Thank you." Linn didn't say much.

"This man is really ruthless. He wants to take you to a place where the monthly rent is seven gold coins." After Fan Lun walked away, Arthur lowered the window, lit a cigarette and said with a smile.

"This kind of person will not let go of any opportunity to make money."

"But honestly speaking, you can afford to live in that kind of place. You can earn eighty gold coins by writing eight articles a month. The monthly rent of seven gold coins is really not enough." Arthur was a little envious, "I didn't expect that.

It’s so profitable to write novels. When you and Fan Lun were negotiating the price, I couldn’t help but want to try writing.”

Lynn was very plain: "In any industry, the best people can make money. I make a lot of money, but if you look at Tswold City, you can find even one person who writes as well as me.

Are there as many people as me?"

Arthur didn't even think about it: "I can't find it. Didn't Fan Lun tell you that you are the first one he has ever seen?"

"Unfortunately, it's still too slow." Linn was not satisfied.

"You mean making money is too slow?" Arthur wasn't sure.

"Um."

"If you work hard and write ten articles a month, that will be one hundred and twenty articles a year, and you will earn one thousand two hundred gold coins. Is this called slow? If you call it slow, then my total salary this year will be only six

Who is a person with ten gold coins?" Arthur thought at first that Linn was too arrogant, but he knew that Linn was not such a person, "...what else do you have in mind?"

"There is no need to say anything. You will know when I have enough money and strength. In short, what I can tell you now is that one thousand two hundred gold coins is a lot for ordinary people, and it may take them decades of struggle.

But in the eyes of the rich, it's still nothing. And we can't just achieve what we once thought was good and then stop moving forward." Linn's vision for the future became more and more complicated as the mysterious power surfaced.

More vast and far-reaching, "If you have the opportunity, you must climb up. The higher you climb, the better."

Arthur agreed very much with Lynn's words: "Climb as high as you can."

"When the accommodation is ready, we have to think about where to go in the evenings." With everything in life completed smoothly, Linn focused on the second cleaning task that was about to begin.

"It's best to go to the place where the richest people in Tswold City like to go, so that the probability of encountering the target can be maximized." Arthur's idea was simple and crude.

Now that I have decided to get in touch with the awakened people among the rich.

Then just find the richest one.

“Where do the richest people live in wealthy areas? Where do they like to go late at night?”

Arthur taught the unwritten rule: "As far as I know, all cities—not just the Venn Empire, but all cities in the world—are richer the closer they are to the city center. We are now in a wealthy state.

It’s a residential area, but the wealthy area is also a very broad concept. It can also be subdivided into countless strata, and they are different from each other. The more central the area, the higher the consumption. People living there

The higher a person’s status is.”

"It is precisely because of these that the city has formed circles of invisible barriers. It clearly distinguishes slum areas and rich areas, naturally concentrating the powerful in the center, and naturally excluding poor civilians.

It's on the periphery." Linn quickly understood.

"Yes, people outside are all trying their best to squeeze in the middle. Those who can't squeeze in are left behind." Arthur took a deep breath of cigarette, "I like the world of the jungle and the strong."

"I like it too." Lin En has a heart to become a strong person.

The rules of this world have no power over him.

The weak are ignorant and are treated as wretches for the powerful at the top to run this world of the jungle.

But he won't.
