I Am a Nobleman in England

Chapter 247 As long as you are happy!

In the first-class cabin of the train from Southampton to Norwich, Arthur and Jiang Lai sat facing each other by the window.

Arthur frowned slightly, and tapped his fingers briskly on the laptop, while Jiang Lai was lying comfortably on the seat, wearing earphones, listening to music, and looking sideways at the scenery outside the window.

He raised his head and glanced at Jiang Lai on the opposite side, and turned his head to look at the world outside the window of the car that was speeding past or slowly retreating. I have to say that this kind of scene always made Arthur feel unreal. . .

Gently touched Jiang Lai, who was a little distracted, with his foot, looked at her suspicious eyes, took off the earphones, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Arthur smiled and asked, "I saw that you were completely lost, and I wanted to ask you what's wrong."

Jiang Lai gave Arthur a charming look, then took off the earphones, picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip, then looked at the scenery outside the window, said softly with a charming smile on his face.

"You know, I like being on the train very much. Some troubles seem to be unable to catch up with your speed, and they will naturally be let go." Said, Jiang Lai turned his head to look at Arthur, and continued: "In all Among the means of transportation, there are probably only trains, which make me unable to feel the direction of forward and backward. Listening to music, any direction of travel will not disturb my almost sluggish "meditation" state. A poet in the Celestial Dynasty once wrote , Trains can cure people’s insomnia and depression. I believe in this magic power very much. It is probably the best state to have expectations and let go.”

Hearing Jiang Lai's emotion and seeing her expression, a word immediately popped up in Arthur's mind, 'petty bourgeois sentiment'!

"Hehe, then England is really suitable for you." Arthur raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Although the land area of ​​the United Kingdom is not large, it has the most abundant railway layout and the longest history of the railway transportation system in the world. The frequency of trains is high, and there is no need for security checks, no ticket checks or automatic ticket checks, no fixed shifts, or even no When seated according to the number, bicycles can also be brought on the train, and passengers can go directly to the platform to get on the train, without any inconvenience and congestion at all. No one would dislike railways and trains like this, right?

Jiang Lai looked at Arthur, smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "I don't have my own homeland anywhere, and my own home is good. Okay, let's not talk about this. I saw you holding the computer and working all the time. What are you doing?"

Now that Jiang Lai changed the subject, Arthur naturally wouldn't disappoint, and said with a smile, "Create something new."

"Oh, is there a follow-up to "Boleyn Manor"?" Jiang Lai's beautiful eyes lit up slightly, and she had to say that while she was puzzled by Arthur's talent, she also admired it very much. After all, everyone has a writer's dream However, those who can really become writers are rare, and they can't do it by themselves, so I admire writers even more.

"no,

New theme, detective. "

"Oh? Let me see..." Jiang Lai couldn't help being interested, and reached out to grab the laptop.

"It's just the beginning." Arthur didn't stop him, but picked up the notebook and turned it over for Jiang Lai to read, "This book has been planned for a long time, and it was prepared to be published in the Southern Daily Echo" , to increase some sales, but now, I want to serialize it on the Wuxia World website, not only to increase traffic and publicity, but also to set an example for other people who have writing dreams.”

"Hmm, "Sherlock"? You don't want to learn from Sherlock Holmes, do you?" Jiang Lai looked up at Arthur when he saw the title of the book.

"Hehe, really sharp, but the Sherlock I wrote is not Sherlock Holmes, his surname is Boleyn, Detective Sherlock, it is the official name, the title of the online book, I am going to use "The Walking Death", because my protagonist's setting Yes, people will die wherever they go..."

"Wait, you haven't seen the anime "Detective Conan" in the foot basin, have you? He is the so-called Shinigami elementary school student!" At this time, Jiang Lai looked at Arthur with a strange look, and asked back with questioning eyes. .

""Detective Conan"? A Shinigami pupil?" Arthur pretended to be suspicious, then frowned and shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it. My book mainly uses the basic deductive method to solve cases, and There is a main line."

"Oh." Jiang Lai didn't ask Arthur whether he knew the elementary school students of death. After all, it doesn't matter if he borrowed from it. The key is to look at the content, to see how the case is solved. "A dark express train?"

"Well, this is the first case, use it to commemorate the first time we took the train together." Arthur laughed.

Hearing what Arthur said, Jiang Lai raised his head and gave Arthur a charming white look, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and began to look. Arthur, on the other hand, reconceived the original "Detective Conan" story in his mind according to his own needs, and prepared to completely remake and adapt the case, combining the Black Organization with the behind-the-scenes of the first season of Sherlock to form a A huge boss that runs through the entire story.

At the same time, let the prototype of Huiyuan Ai who was hunted down become the female assistant of the detective Sherlock to replace Watson. In this way, he can take the detective Sherlock, the basic deductive method and the famous detective Conan that he has seen in his previous life, The storylines and cases of these three episodes have been grafted into my brand new "Sherlock" book.

Think about the elementary school students of the death series in the lifetime series, the content I have read, I can definitely write my own detective as a famous big ip, and then use this ip to promote the development of online literature websites, increase its popularity, influence, In this way, it promotes the road of digging the value of network text IP, and explores a new path for cultural brand construction.

Whether it is paying, selling copyright, developing and launching IP-derived content, it seems that it is still far away for the current martial arts world website, and it is indeed too slow to go step by step.

Therefore, Arthur can only find a way to push, hoping to use his own wind to complete his rise. Of course, this is an attempt, and Arthur himself has no way of guaranteeing success.

To be honest, if there was no publishing contract signed with an American publishing house, "Fifty Shades of Gray", which became famous on the Internet, would undoubtedly be the best choice of work. Given the popularity of this book on the Internet, it will definitely make martial arts The world website is pulled up.

Thinking of this, to be honest, Arthur almost regrets his guts, but it is too late to say anything now, the publishing contract has been signed long ago, there is no other way, he can only open a new pit, and come to the martial arts world website up.

"Is there only so much?" Jiang Lai looked at Arthur and raised his eyebrows and asked after quickly reading what Arthur had written.

"Hehe, it's just the beginning. When I finish writing, I'll be the first one to show you." Arthur took the notebook and smiled, "How do you feel?"

"It's not bad. It's so short that I can't see much. However, it's quite exciting to look forward to the follow-up content."

"Hehe, that's good. By the way, go back to Norwich this time and move out of the old man's house you live in now." Arthur looked at Jiang Lai and suggested.

And Jiang Lai looked at Arthur with a smile that was not a smile, met Arthur's calm gaze, stretched out his hand to comb his hair, "I paid a year's rent."

"Hehe, as long as you agree, you don't have to worry about other things. I will take care of them." Arthur smiled, "To be honest, I really don't feel at ease with you here. The best way is to find a A high-end apartment, at least in terms of security can be guaranteed."

Jiang Lai did not reject Arthur's kindness. To be honest, her life as a student studying abroad was not rich. The money she earned in China had already been spent. Although her family's conditions were good, she still chose to be stubborn. Find a part-time job by yourself, after all, studying abroad is not the paradise people imagine.

Norwich is one of the cities with the oldest and most beautiful natural scenery in the UK where the cathedral is located. It is a famous tourist attraction, entertainment shopping and cultural center in the UK. The magnificent Romanesque buildings in the city and the surrounding countryside with wide views complement each other, creating a piece of paradise on earth.

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Arthur and Jiang Lai walked out of Norwich Railway Station. Looking at the clear sky, the two looked at each other and smiled. They got into a taxi and drove towards the busiest area in the city center. .

Because it's already afternoon tea time, don't care about other things, afternoon tea is absolutely unavoidable.

As one of the top ten shopping cities in the UK, it not only brings together a variety of independent stores, specialty stores, commercial streets, well-known chain stores and supermarkets, but also has two large shopping centers, one of which is the largest in Europe. All the world famous brands can be bought here.

And multi-screen cinemas, art theaters, theaters and many museums and art galleries, there are many cafes and restaurants with international flavors, providing a variety of cuisines, from Asan, Chinese, Greek and Thai cuisine to Mexican, Spanish Italian and traditional British cooking has it all.

"I have to say, Norwich is much better than Southampton!" Looking at everything outside the car window, Arthur sighed sincerely, then turned to look at Jiang Lai, "By the way, you can drive, do you have a British driver's license? ?”

"I will, but I haven't applied for a driver's license here. After all, I've only been here for a few months, so I can just take the bus." Jiang Lai smiled.

"Get a driver's license, it's more convenient to have a car, that's all, just follow my arrangement, I can't let my woman suffer, right?" Arthur's words directly stopped Jiang Lai who was about to refuse After all, Chinese and Western girlfriends have different behaviors and attitudes towards boyfriends.

At least Arthur's domineering decision, in Jiang Lai's view, is not an offense, but a show of concern and consideration, which made her really feel a sense of security to rely on.

"What car do you like?"

"There is no concept, it is enough to be able to travel, I am here to study abroad..."

Seeing Jiang Lai's indifferent appearance, Arthur nodded with a smile, "Indeed, driving a car that is too good to go to school will inevitably leave a strange impression on people. The new model of the BMW mini series has been launched, and the red one is very beautiful. Not expensive, how about it?"

Jiang Lai didn't answer, just smiled and raised his eyebrows and said: "It's just as long as you are happy."
