Rebirth As a Writer In Britain

Chapter 151 Buying a house (seeking a reward

Two days later, editor-in-chief Enni just turned on the computer when she received an email from Kevin, which was the draft of the new book "Robinson Crusoe". When she saw the email from Kevin, she quickly opened it happily.

"What kind of story will this be? Let me take a good look."

After speaking, Editor-in-Chief Enni began to look at it seriously. In order not to affect her reading process, she also turned her phone to silent.

Have you heard the legendary story of Robinson Crusoe overseas? I am Robinson Robinson. I want to tell you about the most legendary experience in my life, and let everyone know what a heroic navigator I am, an adventure hero who is not afraid of anything.

One day in a certain year, I was born in an upper-class family in York City. My father is German. After moving to Hull, England, he made money from business and moved to York to settle down, where he married my mother. My grandfather's surname is Robinson, a well-known family in the local area, so I am also named Robinson Closso.

I was the youngest in my family, and I was the most loved by my parents, so I was raped and ruined. I didn't learn the skills to make a living. I heard that I have two older brothers. The eldest brother was a lieutenant-colonel in the British Infantry Regiment stationed in Flanders, which the famous Colonel Lockhart had led. But he died fighting the Spaniards near Dunkirk. As for the whereabouts of the second brother, I don't know at all. I guess he should be the same as me. For the parents, he is completely missing.

Editor-in-Chief Enni realized that Kevin was using the first-person method to tell the story of an adventure this time. This is completely different from the "Jane Eyre" and "Wuthering Heights" stories he wrote before. This also subverted the fantasy of editor-in-chief Enni about this book.

Because of this, editor-in-chief Enni became more and more curious about this "Robinson Crusoe". She continued to read, she wanted to know what kind of adventures Robinson Crusoe would have in the book, and what wonderful moments in his life.

The more Editor-in-Chief Enni reads, the more exciting this book is. So much so that she never took her eyes off the computer, she seemed to be possessed...

After Kevin sent the manuscript to Enni, he planned to go outside to check the amount in the bank card. Ever since he got the film and television remuneration for "Wuthering Heights", he said that he would buy a house in Edinburgh for his parents, but due to time constraints, he never did it. Come back now. He also has a little spare time, so he plans to give this wish to (l) within a few days.

Just as Kevin walked out of the house, the phone rang. It was Bella calling. Bella has been holding concerts outside these days, so she calls Kevin a lot less.

After the Kevin plagiarism incident came out, she was also very concerned about the progress of the matter, so her assistant would tell her whenever there was any result. After hearing that Kevin finally proved himself,

She was also happy for Kevin in her heart.

"Hi, dear Bella, I haven't heard from you for a long time, how are you?" Kevin said after pressing the answer button.

"S, I'm great. But you, after the plagiarism storm, you are still full of smiles."

"Yo, how do you feel that I am full of smiles? Could it be that you are in the air around me? My God, you have become the god of air?" Kevin said wittily.

",,, I got it from your laughing words. Come on, Kevin. You are awesome. I heard you wrote a wonderful prose in just ten minutes of waving your pen on the spot, and this Prose is happy to be praised."

"That's just God's favor, nothing to be proud of. Thank you beautiful Miss Bella for caring about this matter. Oh, is your concert over?" Kevin asked.

"Last night was the last one, maybe there will be one after a while, everything depends on the company's arrangement. Oh, is it true that you said that I'm welcome to your house as a guest?"

"Of course, you are always welcome. Miss Bella is always welcome in the beautiful city of Edinburgh, and my home is always open to you. And I think God will say: Go. Dear Miss Bella, go. Let’s be a guest at the family named Kevin.”

"Okay, then I will follow God's will and wait. I will go to Edinburgh as a guest in two days." Bella also cooperated with Kevin's humorous words.

"Really? It's exciting news. Then give me information before you come." Kevin said happily.

"Of course, see you then."

After finishing speaking, Bella and Kevin continued to chat about some life topics, and hung up the phone with each other after ten minutes.

It turned out that Bella was going to visit her home in two days, which also made Kevin more determined to buy a new house.

"Dear Kevin, do you really want to buy a house? You must know that Edinburgh's housing prices are not low." After his father heard Kevin's idea of ​​buying a house for them. said in surprise.

"It's okay, dear parents, the royalties I get should be able to buy a house in Edinburgh. This is what I promised you at the beginning. As I said, I must buy you a new house. Put an end to that pesky monthly rent bill in our home."

"But you can keep that money to yourself and do what you like. There's nothing wrong with us living here."

"No no, dear mother, you once told me to be honest. I promised you, so I have to realize it, don't I? And now I have the ability to realize it. Besides, wait for the new book to be published After that, I still have my manuscript fee. So, you don’t have to worry too much. Let’s go and choose our new home.” Kevin said.

Since the film and television copyright of "Wuthering Heights" was sold to Zacks Film and Television Company, Kevin has received a one million pound remuneration, plus some expenses in the previous book market, the money can still buy a set in downtown Edinburgh. nice house.

Although the UK is a developed country, some consumption levels are not as expensive as we imagined. For example, the house price in the UK is 350 pounds/m2 in ordinary areas, while the house price in London is more expensive, which is only about 400-800 pounds/m2.

Edinburgh is the capital of Scotland, and it is also a tourist attraction, so it is slightly more expensive than other cities such as Aberdeen, Glasgow and Nottingham.

In this city, the most common area is also the villa area. Of course, Kevin's current worth of more than one million pounds cannot buy a villa in the villa area he yearns for. Therefore, he can only look for a higher-end house in the urban area.

Fortunately, Kevin usually walks around this city, so he has some memories of everything here. After selecting several places, he and his elders finally bought a house of more than 200 square meters in the Royal No. 2 home near the Scottish Museum. The reason why I chose to buy here is also very simple, because it is the city center and close to the University of Edinburgh. It is convenient for Kevin to go to school, and it is not far from the lively streets of Edinburgh such as the Royal Mile and Princes Street. (To be continued.)
