Chapter 56 The Arrival of Peggy's Family
Before they knew it, Locke and Tang Wei chatted about his "Arcane Throne".

Now the novel has been released in three volumes, which is about one-third of the overall length after Locke's adaptation, but Locke has already finished the novel in private.

The speed of the release was not deliberately accelerated, because it will take some time for the fame to spread.

According to Locke's idea, it is just right to release a volume in about half a year.

Now Locke is considering his new novel, which should also be a Western fantasy genre, and the two novels can be released at the same time.

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

This novel with Crusu elements is very suitable for Europe and the United States, and it has great potential. There are 22 paths and 220 sequence occupations. If you work hard, you can dig out 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 it is adapted into comics, movies, TV series, etc. in the future, it will bring more prestige, so that Locke can 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, Locke has recently invested 2000 million US dollars in Sky Fund, and through foreign exchange these days, he has easily made a floating profit of 1000 million US dollars.

Wealth comes so easily, it is hard to imagine that Locke spends more time writing than researching various financial information. Although Locke can get at least more than [-] US dollars in royalties every quarter, there is still a big difference 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. It's a celebration of our move here, and at the same time, let the Swansons get to know these neighbors."

After moving into a new home, both Eastern and American people like to celebrate.

Easterners invite friends to eat at home, which is called Wenju, while Americans hold parties and invite friends and neighbors.

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

"I've already contacted a special party company and chef, so we don't have to worry about it then, but if you like, you can prepare some snacks tomorrow morning, and we will take them together 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 neighbors 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 door and greeted him.

"Hello." Locke stopped and nodded to her.

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

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

"It turns out that you are the mysterious resident." Susan said: "A few months ago, I could see workers going in and out there for decoration, and furniture moving in. Now I finally see you. You moved in with your wife." Did you come?"

"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 should have just married and moved here.

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

"It's okay, go get busy, I'm going to prepare breakfast for my daughter too." Susan nodded: "My daughter Julie is still in high school, and I have a chance to introduce you to each other."

"It's my pleasure."

After chatting with Susan, Locke returned to his residence. He had watched the American drama Desperate Housewives in his previous life, so when he was choosing a residence near the university, he finally chose this place to see if he 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 Meijing Town, and then find a suitable temporary guardian for Peggy nearby.

"There are five rooms in total. Except for the master bedroom and the study room, the other three rooms can be chosen at will." Helping 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 layout: "The house is beautifully decorated."

"Thank you, I hope Peggy likes it." Locke patted Peggy's shoulder: "Why don't I show you the room and choose the one you like."

"I'm sure Peggy will like it, it looks like you've put a lot of money into it."

Barry didn't know that Locke 'inherited' billions of dollars, but he also knew that Locke made some money writing books and investing in stocks, and thought he put all the money into the house.

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

"That's a good point. Maybe I can refer to it when I renovate the house next time." Barry earned a lot as a dentist and is considering changing to a better house recently.

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

"Thank you very much then."

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

"It's a good idea," Barry said. "It's better to choose someone who is well-respected nearby than an agency-recommended guardian."

After visiting the room, Peggy finally chose a bedroom on the second floor, separated from Locke's room by the study, while the Barry couple chose a room on the first floor to rest.

The Swanson family also needed to take a good rest to get their spirits up for the evening party.

In the next few days, Barry and Linda will live here, so as to increase their understanding of the surroundings and ensure that Peggy's life here will not have problems in the future.
