Chapter 7 Chapter 7
◎It’s easy to make money from self-media◎
Lian Jiu still wanted to activate his salary card, but the pancake with five eggs had been destroyed by the God. He was even eager to try other roadside stalls, fearing that this guy would bite the stalls to pieces like those little monsters. Lian Jiu bought him a small bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts and asked him to shut up first.
After leaving the bank, Lian Jiu linked his salary card to the payment software.
Seeing her actions, Si Lan stopped peeling chestnuts and asked: "What's the use of this?"
"When the time comes, your salary will be deposited into this card. In this age of electronic payments, you can spend the money directly from your phone." Lian Jiu gave him an analogy, "To buy the food you eat."
Si Lan raised his eyebrows and pulled out a similar card from somewhere: "I have one too."
Lian Jiu thought it was his salary card as a "bodyguard": "Bodyguard salary? Has it been activated?"
"No." Si Lan said, "Those people gave it to me."
"Why would anyone give you this?"
"Afraid of me." Si Lan scoffed, "You want me to come to the human world with Yinglong."
Obviously, this God didn't come, so is this a paid vacation?
According to Si Lan, he never spent any money and still received a fixed salary every month, so he should have a small savings. So Lian Jiu reminded him: "Have you checked how much money you have? You should have an idea of it."
Si Lan glanced at her indifferently.
This look is exactly the same as when fastening a seat belt in a car, which means he doesn't know how.
You don't even care about your salary! How big of a heart do you have!
Lian Jiu had no choice but to sit down and teach him how to check, and downloaded several apps on his smartphone, which was used as a senior phone, and then found out that there was only more than 8,000 yuan in his card.
"That's not right." Lian Jiu was puzzled. "You haven't been out of the mountain and you haven't spent any money. Where has your salary gone for all this time?"
Si Lan thought about it and understood that money was just something outside of his body, so when Yinglong said he wanted to use his salary to build a school and connect the power grid, he didn't care and let him do it casually.
He frowned: "Yinglong wants to build a school, it's a mess, right? Is 8,000 too little?"
Lian Jiu suspected that the eight thousand was the salary he had just received, and he would have to take a portion of it to pay his own salary. After rounding it off, he would still have a portion of the eight thousand.
Lian Jiu comforted him: "You don't have a mortgage or car loan, so it shouldn't matter how much you have."
Si Lan finished peeling the last chestnut and handed his card and phone to Lian Jiu. "How much hot pot and confectionery can you buy?"
“…”
Lian Jiu sighed and taught the God how to manage his finances: "You'd better save some money. If you get married and have children in the future, you won't be able to do it without money. At least buy an apartment, don't let your wife and children live in a cave with you."
"I don't do those human things." Si Lan said like a wealthy man, "You know how to spend money, go buy it for me."
"You'd better save some money! What if the Dragon Bureau needs it in the future?" Lian Jiu couldn't help but complain, "Besides, you still have to pay my salary with this money."
Si Lan didn't know if he understood or not. He was silent for a long time, then insisted on his final bottom line: "Buy a box."
Lian Jiu was at a loss for words and had to agree.
A man and a demon sat at the dining table in front of the convenience store, and passers-by looked at them sideways.
Lian Jiu had long been accustomed to it. She had been good-looking since she was a child, but now there were more little girls taking pictures. Si Lan did not change his clothes when he came out. Although he had retracted his ears, his temperament and appearance were there, and he looked like the protagonist who walked out of a costume drama. Several waves of little girls had been replaced, but he was only focused on eating.
I don’t know if liking to eat is the nature of monsters, but from small monsters to gods like this, they are all particularly obsessed with eating.
Thinking of the little monster, Lian Jiu secretly calculated that if the funds were approved, the children's living standards would be a little higher, but the kindergarten had no source of tuition fees and could not just sit there and do nothing, not to mention that a new school building had to be built. The current wooden house could only support simple learning and living, and if it wanted to develop in a diversified way, it would be impossible.
The salaries of these monster civil servants are almost nothing. After what happened today, it can be seen that humans' attitude towards monsters remains to be seen. It is not an easy task for a kindergarten to operate for a long time.
As she was lost in thought, a little heat wafted over her face. She lowered her eyes and saw that it was Si Lan who pushed the self-heating hot pot in front of her: "Since you gave me some fruit, I'll give you some."
For a foodie, it was very touching that he was willing to share the food, but Lian Jiu had just eaten a Jianbing Guozi, and now he felt uncomfortable seeing fast food, so he pushed it back: "I'm not hungry."
"Then what are you staring at?"
"Thinking about something." Seeing his arrogant look, Lian Jiu leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "Since you don't like humans, why are you willing to use your own salary to help everyone out of the mountains?"
Those deep dark pupils fixed their gaze on her face for a few seconds. Si Lan raised the corner of his mouth, as if he was about to smile: "Didn't you say that?"
"I?"
"It's all the same, except the demon missed this part of the journey."
"That's what I told the kindergarten teacher." Lian Jiu was once again shocked by Si Lan's true strength. It was true that nothing he said or did in the demon world could escape his discerning eyes. "How did you do that?"
Si Lan said disapprovingly: "I am the one guarding the entire Fuyu Mountain, and I am full of spiritual power."
“!”
Niu Bo.
No wonder those monsters are so afraid of him.
Lian Jiu sincerely admired: "You are such an amazing rabbit."
Si Lan smiled, a very meaningful smile, his eyes and eyebrows were beautiful: "Yes."
"So you want them to keep up with society, too?"
Si Lan said slowly: "They have to survive."
What he said was a bit strange, but Lian Jiu's attention was not there at the moment. Si Lan's words "keep living" kept echoing in her ears.
She had been in this world for nearly a week, and she had always taken one step at a time. Although she did what she had to do as the head teacher in order to survive, she never dared to think about the future.
Now it is highly likely that I can't go back. I can't always be in this passive state. I have to survive. I have to work hard and save some money. My salary is higher than before. Maybe I can buy a house in advance and live my own life.
Hey, I don’t know if there are any preferential policies for monsters to buy houses.
Moreover, the kindergarten is in such a state now that it is questionable whether it can continue to operate in the future. It is very difficult for someone without a degree to find a job that provides five social insurances and one housing fund. I have to find a way to take the self-study undergraduate exam first.
"If you really want to eat, then eat. Don't stare at me and sigh all the time." Si Lan seemed to be unable to stand her any longer. "It will really affect other people's appetites."
Lian Jiu blocked his face from looking at him: "Sorry."
At this moment, someone suddenly said, "We happened to see a very good-looking couple at the entrance of 711. The handsome guy was wearing Hanfu. We had a great harvest today!"
"..." Lian Jiu turned around and saw several people standing on the side of the road. One of them was pointing his cell phone at him and Si Lan. The equipment was very complete and it seemed that it was not just for taking pictures.
After being discovered, the little girl blushed immediately. After hesitating for a few seconds, she stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me, are you artists?"
A certain god turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside the window and was only focused on eating the self-heating pot.
Lian Jiu could only shake his head: "No."
The girl breathed a sigh of relief and showed Lian Jiu her account: "I'm a self-media photography blogger named Shuang Jingjing. I take pictures of passers-by on the street. Are you guys available to appear in the photo?"
He is also a big blogger with millions of followers.
Lian Jiu didn't care, but the person in front of him was a god who didn't like humans very much, so he asked, "Do you want to take a picture?"
Si Lan didn't hesitate: "No."
As expected, I could hear it, but I just didn't want to pay attention to it.
The millionaire blogger Shuang Jingjing was a little disappointed, but the couple in front of her was so good-looking that she thought her video would get a lot of traffic and topics if they could film it, so she said, "I can pay you. If you are willing to say a few words in the advertisement, I can add a little more."
When he heard about money, Lian Jiu couldn't sit still. He didn't even have 200 yuan!
Si Lan can take pictures even if he doesn’t take pictures of himself!
"Ten thousand," the blogger said. "Fifteen thousand with advertising."
Lian Jiu: "Alone?"
When Shuang Liangliang heard this, she was surprised to learn that they had to charge separately. She was clearly aware of her own looks! And since her advertising fees were quite high, she nodded, "Yes, 30,000 for both of us."
Lian Jiu grabbed Shenjun, who was eating hot pot seriously, and said, "I'll discuss it with him."
Shuang Liangliang considerately gave them some space. Lian Jiu's eyes lit up with excitement, and he grabbed Si Lan's sleeve tightly: "Take a picture, there are 30,000 yuan, and you only have 8,000 in your card!"
Si Lan frowned.
Lian Jiu grasped his pain point: "For 15,000 yuan per person, you can buy 500 more self-heating hot pots, and you can add ten eggs to your pancakes!"
Seeing her anticipation brighten up a bit, Si Lan's eyes moved slightly and he pulled back his sleeves: "Add twenty."
"……add."
This time, Lord Si Lan was smart and avoided being deceived: "Buy it today."
"good."
Shuang Jingjing has her own team, and with the good looks of Lian Jiu and Si Lan, they didn’t have to worry too much about makeup. They just took a set of photos with the theme of time travel, and promised to send a few photos after the shoot.
When showing the pictures to Lian Jiu, Shuang Jingjing said enviously, "You all look so good without any retouching. Are you really not celebrities or internet celebrities?"
Lian Jiu felt particularly guilty: "We are very ordinary."
An ordinary dragon-riding god, an ordinary youkai kindergarten principal.
"That's such a shame! If you opened your own account, you'd have a lot of fans just based on your looks." Shuang Jingjing transferred money to her. "Let's add each other as friends. What if we get a chance to work together again in the future?"
Lian Jiu smiled, exchanged contact information with them, and after saying goodbye to Shuang Liangliang, he found Si Lan, who was choosing flavors for his self-heating hot pot. "Should I transfer the money to you via WeChat or Alipay? I just taught you how to use it."
Si Lan: "Keep it."
Lian Jiu was confused: "What?"
"Leave it to you." Si Lan was very skilled in giving orders. "I won't leave the mountain. You can buy it for me when you come out."
He really has no idea about money. Lian Jiu was helpless: "...Why don't you put it on the painted horse? He's faster than me."
Unexpectedly, Si Lan actually considered this possibility, then rejected the suggestion: "He is not familiar with human consumption."
Lian Jiu didn't want to manage money for others, but Si Lan didn't give her a chance to refuse. He was already used to being flattered. He directly took a box of self-heating hot pot that he had already chosen and said, "Go and pay. I also want 20 eggs."
“…”
Who is the bodyguard?
On the way back to Fuyushan, Lian Jiu received the original picture sent by Shuang Liangliang. She searched Shuang Liangliang's account again and was surprised: "I didn't expect that being a self-media person could make so much money..."
If one really relies on looks to make a living, then not only Si Lan and I, but all the little monsters in the kindergarten are so charming and charismatic, which one of them is not outstanding?
Thinking of this, Lian Jiu was suddenly stunned.
What if I give the kindergarten a try by setting up a social media account? Would it bring in additional income?
The author has something to say:
Today's Si Lan is worth twenty eggs.
