Chapter 219 Monthly Exam
"I've applied for the copyright for you, and now it's time to publish it. I'd like to ask for your opinion, and if there are no problems, it will be available in bookstores soon."
Lin Xi was taken aback. So, the teacher had already thought of everything for her from the beginning?
A warm feeling welled up inside me. "Teacher Yang, thank you. I'm fine. How much does it cost? I'll transfer it to you."
"There are no fees involved. It will be published at the expense of Beijing University Press. Any follow-up issues will be handled for you. You just need to send me your bank card number, and they will make payments to you regularly."
Oh, by the way, they'll take 5% of the book's price based on actual sales, and the rest is yours. If sales exceed expectations, your earnings will increase...
Beijing University Press? One of the top publishing houses in the country?
Publication funded by the government? She's just an unknown author, isn't she afraid of losing money?
Only 5%? This is a non-profit publication; are they just giving money away for free?
Did Teacher Yang hold a knife to someone's throat and force them into submission?
"Teacher Yang? Why?"
“Because it’s worth it.”
Is it worth it? Just one notebook a day, summarizing things off the top of her head?
That's it? It's not good enough to be accepted by Beijing University Press?
Lin Xi was completely baffled and couldn't figure it out no matter what she did.
Yang Qingning seemed to have guessed her thoughts and laughed a few times, saying, "Xiao Xi, don't overthink it. Beijing University wouldn't risk its reputation by publishing a book it doesn't believe in."
Okay, she does have some merit; Peking University has good judgment.
"Xiaoxi, you should have written your junior high school notes too, right? You can mail them to Peking University when you have time."
The rest wasn't explicitly stated, but Lin Xi knew it meant that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, her junior high school notes could also be published.
"Teacher, thank you."
Thank you for always helping me quietly.
"You're welcome. It's because you're good enough, cough cough cough."
Yang Qingning seemed to have talked too much, as she clutched her stomach and coughed violently.
"Teacher, teacher? What's wrong?"
Chan Ling'er hurriedly tended to her reopened wound. "Boss, it's time to hang up."
Yang Qingning frowned and suppressed a cough. "Cough, it's nothing, just a cold. Xiaoxi, let's leave it at that for now. Don't forget to send the card number."
Before Lin Xi could say anything, the call ended.
It doesn't feel like a cold.
Teacher Yang... is she sick?
After thinking for a while, she sent Yang Qingning a text message with her bank card number and asked about Yang's current location. She said she would like to visit her if it was convenient, as Yang sounded very ill and she might be able to help.
I waited a long time but didn't receive a reply.
She put down her phone and started doing her own thing.
The outline for my post-apocalyptic novel, which I just finished writing yesterday, has been approved, and I can now start serializing it.
She also added a reader comment function to the website, so she can communicate and interact with her fans in a timely manner, which they should be very happy about.
By the time Lin Xi went to bed, it was nearly midnight, and Lin Dayuan dragged his tired body home.
The first thing I did was open the refrigerator to look for leftovers, but it was empty. Maybe I didn't cook much today. Oh well, I'll just have some instant noodles.
Before leaving the next day, Lin Dayuan left a note on the refrigerator: "Mom, cook more rice today."
But before Lin Guiying could see it, Lin Guojun tore it off and threw it into the trash can.
Lin Xi woke up to the sound of the system.
[Ding. Congratulations, host, you have completed all your exercise and study tasks yesterday. The following rewards have been issued. Please check them.]
One drop of the Insight Elixir: Enhances observation skills and sharpens perception for 3 hours.
One drop of Power Spinach Juice: Boosts strength, making lifting effortless for 3 hours.
Since the Illusion Pill had already been consumed, the quest reward, the Colorful Popping Candy, was replaced with Insightful Elixir.
Lin Xi had seen this product in the system store before, but she had never been very interested in it.
Seeing that she didn't appreciate the value of the product, Xiao Yi reminded her, "Host, observation skills can enhance problem-solving abilities. For example, when facing difficult math problems, you can discover the solution approach and hidden patterns more quickly, thus improving problem-solving efficiency."
It can also improve the efficiency of knowledge absorption and make us more sensitive to capturing key information. For example, when doing chemical experiments, we can carefully observe the subtle changes in experimental phenomena, thereby better understanding chemical principles.
Observation allows us to discover novel things and identify similarities and differences between things. In scientific research, scientists, with their keen observation skills, can discover new phenomena and laws. For example, Darwin observed subtle differences in the morphology and habits of organisms, laying the foundation for the theory of evolution.
In interpersonal relationships, they are more sensitive to changes in the other person's emotions, facial expressions, and body language...
Lin Xi felt her head buzzing. While brushing her teeth, she said, "Okay, okay, I know. Everything produced by the system is top-notch. None of them are useless, right?"
"Of course, host!"
Okay, let's find a chance to test the results.
Upon arriving at school, Lin Xi took out her books and began studying as usual, quickly becoming engrossed in her studies.
"Lin Xi, please put your book away."
Lin Xi snapped out of her study mode and saw Du Ying walk in with a stack of test papers. Everyone's desks were clean.
what's going on?
Li Xiaonuan nudged her with her elbow and whispered, "Xiaoxi, the exam is coming up!"
Lin Xi tidied up the desk, wondering to herself, how come she didn't know there was an exam?
In fact, every subject teacher reminded Lin Xitai yesterday to do well on today's monthly exam, but she was too focused and didn't hear them at all.
Seeing her dazed look, Du Ying shook her head helplessly. This child is oblivious to everything around her, and doesn't even know about the exam. Sure enough, she needs to go out and play more. What if she becomes withdrawn from studying if she stays away from it for too long?
When the test papers were handed out, Lin Xi flipped through them. She was already in her second year of high school, and the test content was only the first few chapters of her first year, so she naturally did it with ease. In less than twenty minutes, she said, "Teacher, I'm handing in my paper."
Du Ying had already witnessed her speed in answering questions, so she wasn't surprised. After collecting the test papers, she said, "Xiao Xi, why don't you go out and play for a while?"
Lin Xi thought the teacher was worried that she would disturb the other students' answers, so she said, "Okay, teacher."
Then he took out his math textbook for the second semester of his junior year from his desk and went outside.
When Du Ying saw her take the book, she became quite angry. She had told her to go out and play, not to go out and study!
Throughout the day, the exam did not affect Lin Xi's study progress at all, and she completed her study tasks as usual.
As expected, she will soon be able to participate in the lottery again.
Sure enough, the results were announced the next day, and Lin Xi's name was ranked first, with full marks in all subjects.
Surprisingly, Shu Zhi ranked second in the entire grade. Because she usually doesn't talk much, no one had paid much attention to her. Unexpectedly, she made a name for herself.
Jian hope likes sports and often goes out to play basketball. She doesn't care much about her studies and ranks in the twenties, while Li Xiaonuan ranks in the teens.
Although Lin Xi was always studying, she still cared about her good roommates and checked their grades one by one.
