Genshin Impact: Zhongli discovered that he was stealing tributes at the beginning

Chapter 1 Prologue



For readers:

I have been thinking about writing a novel since I was in junior high school, whether it is about games, youth, or insights into life. Unexpectedly, it has been delayed until now. It has been ten years. Now I have graduated and come to Shanghai to work alone for more than a year. It’s been months.

Due to work, I need to leave early and come back late. In fact, my salary is low, not to mention that in Shanghai, where prices are very high, I need to go out early every day and take the subway to save money. Haha, to be honest, when I was studying, I could eat out with my classmates for hundreds of yuan without blinking an eye. Now I have to live on a budget. Ordering a takeaway here costs more than 20 yuan, so in addition to lunch, I have to pay for work. Going out can only be done outside. I cook breakfast and dinner by myself. The average meal costs only six yuan. Hey, a person like me who usually doesn't do housework at home has actually learned to cook.

Based on the above situation, I don’t write novels for a long time every day. I write about an hour at night before going to bed to rest and recuperate before going to work. Sometimes it takes a lot of time to conceive the plot, so I can only write about a thousand words a day. Sometimes it's not enough. I only code like crazy when I'm on vacation, so readers who read quickly don't rush for updates, otherwise I can only smile slightly (Liu Huaqiang's smile). uh-huh? Do you wonder why I don’t go to work and write about it? Please, what if I lose my job because of this? You support me?

Wouldn’t it be hypocritical to say that I don’t write novels to make money? Admittedly, I also want to be able to support myself through this, so that I don’t need to run around every day, but I can’t, because I know that my level is not good yet, so just think of me as generating electricity for love. So, I don’t want you to spend money to give me gifts. The Tomato platform has free gifts, but you also need to watch ads, but I am too lazy to watch them myself, so I don’t want you to watch them just to give me gifts. For me, , I will be very happy if you are willing to continue reading my novel.

I still clearly remember the first day I started writing. I walked the road from the subway station on Line 18 to my dormitory many times. But on that day, it was the first time I paid attention to the scenery on the street. There were hurried footsteps on the road. Pedestrians, bustling restaurants, crowded buses, a few sparse trees, and the office buildings rising across the road reflected the strange and dazzling afterglow. Occasionally, a few windows were opened to reveal Starbucks coffee in the office buildings. The cup looks at the young people looking forward to the future in the CBD area. Seeing this scene, I suddenly felt sad and realized that I might have to live a repetitive, boring and insignificant life for the rest of my life. I didn't want to do this, so I made up my mind to start writing a novel.

Of course, in the process of writing novels, for various reasons, I often felt discouraged and thought about giving up, but in the end I gritted my teeth and persevered.

Regarding the subject matter, I chose the game Genshin Impact as the background of the novel because it has always been with me during my lonely days. I know some readers may not have played it, but it does not affect the viewing effect because I will write it in more detail. , the plot is light and humorous, no big swords, slightly sweet.

Okay, I am a bit verbose and it will affect your reading of the text, so I won’t say more.

I would like to write this article to wish you and me peace and joy, and may everything we wish for come true.
