Chapter 268 Article in the Newspaper
The Dog Brigade’s incident was a hot topic in the Ping An Brigade for several days, and its reputation even spread to other brigades.
For this reason, there are married girls whose maiden families live in Ping'an Brigade and bring their relatives to see the dogs in the name of visiting relatives.
The group of dogs led by Wolf One and Wolf Two became really popular among them.
Because they could bring back meat, the lame-legged fox in the house was particularly flattering to Wolf One and Wolf Two.
It must be said that there is a certain reason why foxes have always appeared as beauties in tradition.
For example, the one they picked up.
Although its leg was injured, its fiery red fur looked very nice, as did its pretty furry face, its watery fox eyes, and its particularly coquettish personality.
It is also very smart and knows who is the breadwinner of the family. Every time it drags its legs, it stubbornly waits at the door for Wolf One and Wolf Two to come back.
As soon as the two wolves came back, they came up to the baby, wagging their big fluffy tails, and rubbed against the baby with their ears tilted down, whimpering. Their cries were so delicate and their actions were so clingy.
At first, Wolf One and Wolf Two were quite annoyed with it, but this thing was really thick-skinned. After being bitten, it lay down and looked at them pitifully.
It seemed to know that Wolf One and Wolf Two were just trying to scare it, and that it didn't feel any pain each time they bit it, so it shamelessly moved closer, limping along and looking particularly weak.
Later on, the two wolves probably got used to it, and they would even leave a large piece of meat for it every time they went out hunting. This meat was left over from their hunting in the mountains.
Or bring it a whole pheasant, hare or vole or something.
The fox was recuperating at Song Wei's home, and managed to make itself shiny and plump in about a week.
But it doesn't look like a scam.
Because it is really good at it. Not only does it wait for the two wolves to come back, it will also share the food given by Song Wei and the others, or lick their fur, and even squeeze in between them to keep close to them when sleeping.
If they weren't of the wrong breed, Song Wei would have suspected that they were brothers and sisters.
This fox really used his ability to find himself two capable and powerful backers.
They really look like a family. The older brother and sister are strong warriors who fight outside, and the only younger brother is a spoiled brat who loves to act like a spoiled brat.
Song Wei: ...I'm thinking about something in my mind.
"Song Wei, is Song Wei from here?"
A strange sound was heard outside. The three carnivores in the house raised their heads alertly. Heidan, who was writing in the yard with a small stool, also stretched his neck.
Song Wei went out and saw that it was the postman.
"Hello, I'm Song Wei."
"Here's your mail."
"Thank you, Uncle Li. Sorry for bothering you. Please have a glass of water."
Heidan was very considerate and went to get a glass of water. It must have been easy for the postman to make a special trip to deliver the mail to her in a sweat.
And we are considered acquaintances.
Uncle Li didn't hesitate to take the bowl from Heidan and started drinking.
"Oh, it's still sugar water."
Heidan grinned.
After drinking the water, Uncle Li said goodbye to Song Wei and the others and rode away on his bike.
After closing the door, Song Wei opened the mail, which contained a newspaper, a remittance slip and a ticket.
She took a quick look and saw that there was about thirty dollars on the remittance slip.
She probably knew that the price for submitting articles to newspapers now ranged from 6 to 20 yuan per thousand words. This was a newspaper in the local city. The short article she wrote was about 3,000 words, and she was paid 10 yuan per thousand words.
It’s quite high, and there are tickets inside.
There were meat coupons, grain coupons, and cloth coupons, about five in total. Not a lot, but rare nonetheless.
When she opened the newspaper again, her article was not published on the most conspicuous front page, but it was at the back, which was pretty good.
Song Wei's eyes suddenly lit up.
This was money she earned through her own ability and she even got the tickets. How could she not be happy?
She looked at it carefully and found that the published article had been paid for by someone, but it was not much. There were also photos attached to the exciting parts in the middle, which was very appropriate. It seemed that the photos she sent were put to good use.
Seeing Song smiling so happily, Heidan tiptoed over.
"Sister, let me see what it is, too."
Song Wei handed him the newspaper: "Look, you've been put in the newspaper."
Heidan looked in the direction her finger was pointing and his eyes widened.
The photo was a still of dogs greeting children at the school gate.
The children were inside the school, carrying their schoolbags and with clear and carefree smiles on their faces. The dogs were outside the school, not going into the school, but squatting at the school gate in an imposing and orderly manner, watching the children in the school like loyal guardians.
I have to say that this scene is very eye-catching and heartwarming.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The small figure of Heidan is also clearly shown in the photo.
"It's really me, I'm in the newspaper!"
At this time, being published in the newspaper is very important, and Song Wei chose the largest newspaper in the city.
Even though Heidan was young, he knew that this was an extremely honorable thing for him.
"Hahahaha... I'm in the newspaper. Wolf One and Wolf Two, come and have a look. You're in the newspaper just like me. We're all in the newspaper!"
Song smiled as he watched him cheer and opened the letter sent from the newspaper.
The newspaper said that they liked her style of writing and also liked the children and dogs she wrote about. They hoped to continue working with her in the future, and that it would be even better if the articles came with photos. The price is still 10 yuan per thousand words.
He also explained why it was only 10 yuan, because Song Wei is just a new author now, and the remuneration above 10 yuan is for old authors who have accumulated a certain reputation and prestige. If the response is good, Song Wei's accumulated remuneration will gradually exceed the price of 10 yuan per thousand words.
This was the highest salary the newspaper could offer her, and it also subsidized some tickets.
Song Wei thought that this newspaper was quite honest.
It’s a pity that Lin Zhen is not here now, otherwise she could share her joy with Lin Zhen.
She also gave Heidan 10 cents as pocket money, just to be happy today. "I'm happy that I made money, so I'll give it to you as pocket money."
Heidan was pleasantly surprised. Today was such a good day! After Lin Zhen came back, he could clearly feel the cheerful atmosphere at home.
As soon as he entered the door, Song Wei stuffed the newspaper into his hand, with a smile on her face as bright as a flower, fresh and beautiful.
"Look, my article is in the newspaper."
Song Wei never thought that she, a poor student, could make money in this life by relying on the writing skills of her diary in her previous life!
The money was not much, not as much as she earned from hunting a wild boar.
But the two are different.
This is something that is legitimate and worth showing off. One article is worth a month's salary for many formal workers!
After Lin Zhen saw it, a smile appeared on his face.
"I told you that you could do it."
His tone was full of pride.
The two of them leaned against each other while laughing. Song Wei's curved eyebrows looked really beautiful.
He is also very lucky to have found someone like this to spend his life with.
