Chapter 141: Hong Kong Chinese Society Consults Again, Many Differences...
Chapter 141
"Uncle, brother."
Lin Mujin nodded to Mrs. Luo and the others again.
I ordered a glass of freshly squeezed juice. We talked a lot in the reception room, and I was still thirsty even after drinking the tea.
"Sister, we're done talking. What's the result?" Cousin Lin asked in a low voice.
Lin Mujin smiled and raised her fist. "Okay, I'll go sign the contract tomorrow. If nothing goes wrong, I'll see the book published in a week."
Cousin Lin was overjoyed, but he resisted the urge to shout. He turned around and told Uncle Lin the good news.
Uncle Lin smiled and waved to her, "Ajin, come here."
Lin Mujin hurried forward, "Uncle..."
Uncle Lin took out a handful of money and said, "Go buy something nice. We'll celebrate tonight."
Lin Mujin didn't want to answer, "Uncle, I have money."
The main thing is that this money might be the food truck’s earnings today, and it will be difficult to do the accounting then.
She stuffed the money back and ran away, "Uncle, I'll buy you some mantis shrimp."
The mantis shrimps in this season are full of seeds and have plump meat, which is the perfect time to eat them.
Cousin Lin caught up with her in two steps and said, "Sister, I want to tell you something."
Lin Mujin waved her hands, "Don't give me money."
Cousin Lin searched his pockets and said, "I don't have any money either."
Lin Mujin rolled her eyes. "What's the matter?"
Cousin Lin asked, "You want to wait until the book is published before going inland?"
Lin Mujin nodded. "That's what I was thinking. I'm going to bring two books with me, which can be considered a gift. But it depends on the publisher. If they can't be printed in a short time, I definitely won't wait forever. Brother, I have almost everything ready. Have you prepared anything yet?"
Cousin Lin was a little confused, "What should I prepare?"
Lin Mujin started to say one thing after another, "We have to buy a suitcase, right?"
Cousin Lin immediately said, "A backpack is enough for me. I don't need that much stuff."
Lin Mujin wanted to put her hands on her hips, "But I have it! Brother, you are my assistant when we go inland this time, understand? I plan to buy a lot of things, and one suitcase will not be enough. I will definitely need yours."
Cousin Lin understood and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go buy it."
Lin Mujin waved her hand again, "No need for you, I'll go buy it, so as to avoid buying something of poor quality."
Cousin Lin didn't argue with her, "What else do you need to prepare besides the suitcase?"
Lin Mujin replied, "I need to prepare two or three changes of clothes, toiletries, and my ID. Everything else... doesn't seem to be much. It shouldn't be like that. Why do I have so much stuff?"
Cousin Lin was amused and said, "Tell me what else you have."
Lin Mujin repeated everything one by one, "Camera and film. I plan to take more pictures. It's a rare opportunity to go there."
Cousin Lin agreed, "You should take this with you. I'll take more photos of you when the time comes."
Lin Mujin continued, "I have a lot of clothes, shoes, lotion sets, and tapes..."
Cousin Lin quickly interrupted, "You need to go live your life!"
Lin Mujin said, "I've already finished my first martial arts novel, and haven't started the second one yet. It's a good window of opportunity, so I can stay a little longer. Mrs. Luo can manage the food truck now, and the new Mrs. Jiang is doing well. It won't be a big deal with you or not, so let's not limit it to ten days. Let's stay longer and travel around."
Cousin Lin crossed his arms and said, "I noticed that you have a good impression of Nei Lu."
Lin Mujin was not at all disappointed. "Yes, isn't this necessary? We share the same roots, so it's natural for us to have a good impression of each other. Besides, the inland area is vast and rich in resources. I also want to see if there are any good investment projects."
Cousin Lin was helpless, "It's taking too long, your uncle will be worried."
Lin Mujin said, "You can write..."
She wanted to write a letter, but felt it would take too long. Besides, is it possible for the two sides of the Taiwan Strait to communicate now?
"It seems that it can send a telegram."
His tone wasn't very certain, so I really had to go to the Hong Kong Chinese Press to ask.
Cousin Lin waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and buy some groceries. I'm going back to the food stall. Mrs. Luo will be home to cook soon."
Lin Mujin also waved her hand, "Bye, brother."
She took a bus directly to a big market.
Buy five pounds of mantis shrimp, all female and large.
I also bought a pound of tuna belly and two pounds of tuna skinless.
Finally, I bought a small five-pound Australian rock lobster.
Tuna and lobster are not cheap, but considering the ocean pollution in the future, it will be difficult to eat high-quality seafood. Besides, I have money in my pocket now, so eating them occasionally is not a luxury.
Afterwards she took a taxi back home.
When I got home, Mrs. Luo had already steamed rice and was cooking.
After saying hello and putting the seafood away properly, he went back to the house.
I found some letter paper and started writing the sequel.
Who should I write about?
By the way, you can write that several years after the hero passed away, the "Eight or Nine Divine Arts" reappeared in the world and was obtained by a shepherd boy.
Because of the secret book, the whole family was killed.
This secret manual of magical skills seems to be cursed. It can enable people to achieve magical skills and become the supreme master of the martial arts world, but it is also accompanied by bloodshed and separation of relatives and loved ones.
"Why are you so hungry?"
Lin Mujin touched her flat belly and looked at the time. It was already twelve twenty.
No wonder I'm so hungry.
Hurry to the kitchen to find something to eat.
"Huh? That's not right. Why hasn't Lin Muli come back? Did he eat outside?"
She was eating with her bowl in hand when Lin Muli rushed in, "Sister, give me some food. I'm starving."
Seeing that he looked like a starving ghost, Lin Mujin said, "If you're hungry, just eat outside to avoid starving yourself. No money?"
Lin Muli couldn't wait any longer and started eating right away. He swallowed a large mouthful before replying, "I'm rich. What good food can there be outside? At home, we still have four dishes at best. Mrs. Luo's cooking is pretty good."
Lin Mujin asked, "Why are you back so late?"
Lin Muli grimaced, "It was my bad luck. The teacher caught me and forced me to do hard labor just as school was about to end. I finally finished the work, but I ran into a fight halfway. I changed my route to avoid getting bloodied."
Lin Mujin's mouth twitched. Is he going home from school? He caught up with the Tang Dynasty's journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures.
The brother and sister finished their meal quickly. Lin Muli didn't stay at home and went straight to school. It was really late.
Lin Mujin went back to the room and wrote the extra chapter for another hour, then went out again with her bag.
I went to Hong Kong Chinese Society for consultation first.
First question, is there a time limit for this pass?
How long can she stay inland?
It turns out there really is. Judging from her application, it usually doesn't take more than seven days.
Lin Mujin was very glad that she came over to ask.
The second question is about reporting safety.
She was right that she could send a telegram.
The third question is how much cash she can bring.
The answer is you can’t bring more than that. It’s best to keep it within 5,000 yuan, as customs will conduct strict inspections.
It was completely different from what she had thought before.
She had clearly asked the bank where she deposited the money, but the teller said that there was no currency exchange service between the bank and the mainland.
She was a little dumbfounded. What should she do?
Then the other party said that Bank of China and Huifeng in Hong Kong already had business dealings and could make cross-border transfers, but it would take a long time and there would be handling fees.
Lin Mujin was naturally a little reluctant. She could only be away for seven days, and if the bank didn't receive the money, she should come back.
Fortunately, there is another way, which is to carry bills of exchange and cashier's checks.
