Chapter 260

After sitting on the sofa for a while, both of them felt a little hungry.

When they looked at the time, it was already eight o'clock.

They hadn't eaten dinner yet.

The refrigerator was empty, there was nothing, and the idea of ​​making dinner in the new home was also ruined.

Liu Muye turned to Han Juyou and said, "Let's go, I'll drive you out to eat."

"Okay, but I'll treat you tonight."

"Why?"

"Because..." Han Juyou thought for a while and said, "Because I said that I'll treat you to dinner after the manuscript fee is issued!"

"But won't your manuscript fee be issued on the 16th?"

"Tonight, after twelve o'clock, it will be considered the 16th, and then I can withdraw the manuscript fee!"

"Forget it, I'll treat you, you treat me tomorrow!"

"No, I said I'll treat you, so I have to treat you!"

"Uh, okay, okay, you treat me, you treat me."

Seeing Han Juyou was so persistent, Liu Muye didn't argue with her.

Han Juyou opened the group purchase software, and while searching, he asked Liu Muye: "What do you want to eat?"

"I don't know, you choose."

Liu Muye didn't have any special pursuit for food, as long as he could eat enough.

"Hot pot... barbecue... uh, I feel that the dishes in these chain restaurants are all the same and there's nothing delicious... Hey, there's a small Sichuan restaurant, and the reviews seem pretty good. Shall we eat Sichuan food?"

"Okay."

Liu Muye readily agreed.

After choosing the restaurant, the two didn't hesitate, got in the car and left their new home.

Sitting in the car, Han Juyou opened the author's backend and refreshed her backend data again. This was the nth time she opened this software and checked the data today.

In theory, the platform should have settled the manuscript fee for last month at this point, and she just needed to wait until twelve o'clock to withdraw the money, but now her manuscript fee data for last month is still a big "0".

Liu Muye noticed her mobile phone interface and asked with concern: "Has the manuscript fee for last month not been settled yet?"

"No." Han Juyou shook her head and said half-jokingly, "This platform is so big, it shouldn't owe me, a poor little author, this insignificant salary, right?"

Liu Muye smiled and shook his head, comforting the other party, "Of course not, it will probably be out in an hour."

When he wrote novels before, the happiest day of each month was the day of the manuscript fee. After squatting on the spot to collect the manuscript fee, the first thing he did was to have a good meal, reward himself, and then have a good sleep. At that time, the manuscript fee was not high, but he felt quite happy.

"Well, but the waiting process is really painful."

Han Juyou said, and finally refreshed the author's background.

Just when she was about to exit the software, the data originally displayed as "0" suddenly changed to "5888".

Looking at this string of numbers, Han Juyou was still in a daze for a while. After she clicked on the interface of the manuscript fee settlement and took a closer look, she exclaimed: "Oh, my manuscript fee has come out!"

"Hmm!" Liu Muye said in surprise, "So suddenly?"

"Yes, it was refreshed suddenly, and I reacted to it myself!"

"How much did you get?"

"Five thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight, a very auspicious number, and it's more than I expected, hehe!"

"Don't be too happy too soon, you still have to deduct taxes."

"Ah!" Liu Muye's words poured cold water on Han Juyou, and she immediately pursed her lips, "Is there still tax to be collected for less than six thousand?"

Liu Muye explained to Han Juyou: "The tax deduction standards for manuscript fee income and labor income are different."

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry." Han Juyou looked at the manuscript fee data in the background and sighed.

Liu Muye continued, "But don't be too sad. You can go to the personal tax software to refund your taxes every March. If your annual income does not exceed a certain amount, you can get a full refund."

"Oh, so that's it." Han Juyou turned his head and looked at Liu Muye, his eyes shining, "How do you know so much?"

"I uh..." Liu Muye was stunned by Han Juyou's question. He pondered for a few seconds and said, "I am a kind and good citizen. It's reasonable for me to know more about taxation, right?"

"Oh, okay, okay." Han Juyou didn't doubt it much. She urged Liu Muye, "Drive faster, I'm hungry!"

"Don't rush me, I'm already driving fast!"

The Sichuan restaurant's business is pretty good. When the two arrived at the store, it was almost nine o'clock and the store was still full of people.

Han Juyou scanned the ordering code on the table with her phone, handed the phone to Liu Muye and said, "Order whatever you want, I'll pay for tonight, don't be polite to me!"

Liu Muye waved his hand and refused, "You should order it, you're the one who's treating me."

"Okay, okay, I'll do it."

Han Juyou, who was about to get her salary, was in a very good mood. She took a look at the ordering app and directly selected three hard dishes. She was also going to order a soup, but was stopped by Liu Muye because the two of them couldn't finish so many dishes.

"If you can't finish it, just pack it up." Han Juyou held her chin with both hands and looked at Liu Muye sitting opposite her and said, "This is the first time I've made money by writing novels. It means too much, so this meal must be grand!"

"Uh..." After listening to Han Juyou's words, Liu Muye felt that what she said made sense, so he nodded, "Okay, grand, order two more dishes!"

The two of them ordered six dishes, three main dishes, two stir-fried dishes, and a soup. When the dishes were served, the table for four people was full.

Han Juyou took a photo with his mobile phone and posted it on WeChat Moments.

The accompanying text was: "The great writer Han can finally support himself by writing!"

The picture under the text was a large table of delicious dishes.

Han Juyou was very careful to take Liu Muye's hand pouring a drink for her into the photo - showing a wave of love invisibly.

After posting on WeChat Moments, Han Juyou happily drank a sip of the drink Liu Muye poured for her.

Liu Muye immediately took out his mobile phone and liked Han Juyou's WeChat Moments.

Looking at the text she posted, Liu Muye's thoughts became trance.

The first manuscript fee...

His first manuscript fee was not even a fraction of Han Juyou's.

Sure enough, writing a book still requires talent.

He is really not the material for writing.

Thinking of this, Liu Muye smiled.

Han Juyou looked at Liu Muye's expression and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"I'm happy for the first royalties in your life." Liu Muye looked into her eyes and said, "Congratulations, Writer Han, you are one step closer to becoming a truly great writer!"

"No, dear, I should be the one thanking you!" Han Juyou gently picked up the cup, her eyes were like a pool of autumn water, with a hint of charm hidden in them, just like the spring breeze brushing the willows, stirring the heartstrings for no reason.
