Chapter 56 The arrival of Peggy’s family

Unconsciously, Locke and Tang Wei started chatting about "Arcane God's Throne" written by him.

Three volumes of the novel have now been released, which is about one-third of the total length after Locke's adaptation, but privately Locke has finished the novel.

There is no deliberate speed up of release, as it still takes some time for fame to spread.

According to Locke's idea, publishing one volume every six months or so is just right.

Now Locke is thinking about his new novel, which should also be in the genre of Western fantasy. By then, the two novels can be released at the same time.

He also considered the new novel for a long time, and finally chose "The Lord of Mysteries", the pinnacle work of an author who Locke liked very much in his previous life.

This novel with Crusu elements is extremely suitable for Europe and the United States, and it has great potential. There are 22 paths and 220 sequence occupations. If you are willing to work hard, you can unearth many stories.

When the novel becomes famous, in addition to the plots of the novels he has read, Locke can also write more new stories under the same world structure. If the response is good, he can even form a huge and unique fantasy universe.

When adapted into comics, movies, TV series, etc. in the future, it will bring more reputation and allow Locke to gain more potential points.

Tang Wei found it incredible that Locke, a billionaire, was willing to spend a lot of time writing every day.

As far as she knows, the US$120 million that Locke recently invested in Sky Fund Company has easily earned US$10 million in floating profits through foreign exchange these days.

Wealth comes so easily, it’s hard to imagine that Locke spent more time writing than researching various financial information. Although the royalties that Locke can get every quarter are at least more than 100,000 US dollars, it is still far behind in comparison. .

"Writing is my hobby, and it brings me more happiness than making money." This is Locke's explanation.

After answering Tang Wei's question, Locke continued:

"By the way, tomorrow happens to be the weekend, and the Swansons will arrive tomorrow afternoon. I'm going to hold a party and invite the neighbors nearby to celebrate our move here, and at the same time, let the Swansons get to know these neighbors."

After moving into a new home, both Dongguo people and Americans like to celebrate.

Dongguo people invite friends to have dinner at home, which is called Wenju, while American people hold parties and invite friends and nearby neighbors.

Tang Wei was also very interested in this and agreed: "I can make some Chinese food."

"I have already contacted a specialized party company and chef. We don't have to worry about it then. But if you like, you can prepare some snacks tomorrow morning and we can take them to visit the nearby neighbors."

Early the next morning, Locke changed into a sports outfit and went out for a run, while Tang Wei got up to prepare snacks and planned to visit the nearby neighbors together when Locke came back.

"Hello!"

Locke ran around the street, and when he was about to return home, a long-haired woman stood in front of the room and greeted him.

"Hello." Locke stopped and nodded to her.

"I'm Susan, and I'm a resident here. Are you the new one?" Susan asked.

"Yes, I live diagonally opposite." Locke pointed to his house.

"It turns out you are the mysterious resident." Susan said: "A few months ago, I have been seeing workers coming in and out for decoration, and furniture moving in. Now I finally see you. You are moving in with your wife. Are you here?"

"No, I live here with my friends." Locke said, "I bought this place mainly for the convenience of going to school."

"go to school?"

"Yes, Princeton University, Department of Mathematics."

"Wow, that's a very good school." Susan exclaimed, "I didn't expect you to be so young. I thought you had already graduated."

Locke looked young, but his mature temperament gave him a lot of points, so Susan thought he had just gotten married and moved here.

"It's nothing." Locke said with a smile: "Nice to meet you, but I have to go back to prepare breakfast."

"It doesn't matter, you go and do your work. I have to prepare breakfast for my daughter." Susan nodded: "My daughter Julie is still in high school. I will introduce you to her if I have the opportunity."

"It's my pleasure."

After chatting with Susan, Locke returned to his residence. He had watched the American TV series Desperate Housewives in his previous life, so when choosing a place to live near the university, he finally chose this place to see if it could trigger any tasks.

After returning home and having breakfast, Locke and Tang Wei took the prepared snacks and visited the neighbors one by one, especially getting to know the four main families in the plot.

In the afternoon, the Swanson family came to the town with their luggage. Barry and Linda needed to confirm the environment of Beautiful Town and then find a suitable temporary guardian for Peggy nearby.

"There are five rooms in total. In addition to the master bedroom and study room, you can choose the other three rooms at will." He helped the Swanson family move their luggage from the taxi to the room and introduced Tang Wei: "Oh, this is Alice, my friend."

"Hello." Barry and Linda greeted Tang Wei, and then began to look at the surrounding decoration: "The house is beautifully decorated."

"Thank you. I hope Peggy likes it." Locke patted Peggy on the shoulder: "Why don't I show you the room and pick one you are satisfied with."

"I'm sure Peggy will like it. It looks like you made a big investment."

Barry didn't know that Locke had 'inherited' hundreds of millions of dollars in property, but he also knew that Locke had made some money writing books and investing in stocks, and thought he had invested all the money in the house.

"After all, I'm going to live here for a long time, so I have to make it more comfortable and happy." Locke said with a smile.

"That's good. Maybe I can refer to it when I decorate my house next time." Barry earns a lot as a dentist and is currently considering changing to a better house.

"Maybe I can give you the designer's phone number."

"Thank you very much."

"By the way, we are going to hold a party tonight and have invited nearby neighbors to join us. Then you can chat with these people and see if there is a suitable person to be Peggy's temporary guardian."

"This is a good idea," Barry said. "Compared to the guardian recommended by the agency, it would be best if you can choose someone who is well-regarded in the neighborhood."

After visiting the room, Peggy finally chose a bedroom on the second floor, across the study from Locke's room, while the Barrys chose a room on the first floor to rest.

After a tiring journey, the Swanson family also needs a good rest to recharge themselves for the evening party.

In the next few days, Barry and Linda will stay here to increase their understanding of the surroundings and ensure that Peggy will not have any problems living here in the future.
