Chapter 14 Come and have dinner with me
The exam just ended before the fourth self-study class in the afternoon. After collecting all the test papers, Wang Ying turned to the door of the third class, frowned, and said, "I heard you making trouble from a long distance."

"Our class is the slowest in the entire grade to be quiet after the bell rings for self-study class."

As soon as these words came out, the chatter in the classroom suddenly disappeared. Wang Ying walked into the classroom and patted Lu Ming on the back: "Teacher Zhang is looking for you."

Lu Ming was a little confused and followed Wang Ying out of the classroom. The two stopped in the corridor, right next to the stairs away from the classroom.

"I don't know Mr. Zhang, which office is he in? Did he come to talk to me about the school song?"

"Yes. He's in the office near the stairs on the fourth floor. Hurry up and come back. Don't wander around the school when it's over."

Lu Ming nodded, then turned left and went down two floors, turned around and saw the teaching and research office, knocked on the door twice: "I'm looking for Teacher Zhang."

"Enter."

The teaching and research office is completely different from the class teacher's office. There are only two desks in it, which are quite spacious. There are only two or three books on them, and there is a pot of red red leaves in the corner.

Lu Ming looked in following the sound and saw a bald middle-aged man wearing red short-sleeves, sitting on an office chair and holding a thermos cup.

"Excuse me, are you Teacher Zhang?"

"Yes. You are Lu Ming, you are talented. I think your song is very good. Would you like to make a school song for the school?" Zhang Shengdong tapped the score on the table with his fingertips, admiring Lu Ming look.

"How much is the school willing to pay for copyright fees?"

After rebirth, Lu Ming did not have the mentality of a student, and he must be indifferent to the teacher.If he had heard the grade director's appreciation for him, he would definitely offer the copyright with both hands and work for free.

When it came to money, Zhang Shengdong restrained his smile and pondered for a while: "Indeed, then I will give you 3000 yuan."

"If you weren't a student of our school, this song would only cost a few hundred yuan. After all, it was written by a student of our school. It's different. I'll give you three thousand."

"Three thousand?" In my previous life, this song became famous to everyone. Even if the song I composed was a little too sexy, it wouldn't be worth only three thousand.

Besides, Lu Ming remembered that the school spent more than 20 yuan to find a former singer and write a new school song, which was extremely ugly. The price of "The Lone Brave" cannot be lower than it.

Lu Ming met Zhang Shengdong's gaze and said, "50. I will offer 50 for the copyright of this song."

"50, what are you thinking about? Students put academics first, and praising you for your talent is not just for you to extort money and blackmail the school!" Zhang Shengdong took out the other three music scores from the drawer and patted them on the desk, saying in a deep voice road.

"The three songs that compete with you are all written by professional music students, and they only cost a few hundred dollars."

Lu Ming lowered his head and glanced at the three songs. Among them was the school song from his previous life. His pupils shrank slightly, and then he said in a flat tone, "If Mr. Zhang thinks my asking price is too high, I can just transfer the right to use it for 20 and 50 years. right."

"You have a beautiful idea." Zhang Shengdong left the desk, patted Lu Ming on the shoulder, and said sincerely: "I do appreciate your songs, but the school's funding is not decided by me, it is under the financial management."

"Thousands of dollars, I spend hundreds of thousands, and the financial department can't approve it. In this way, I will try my best to talk to the financial department, how about adding 2000 yuan to you. At the same time, I see that you have artistic talent, so I will arrange for you to be in the art department." How was the exam?"

Lu Ming didn't speak, but looked at Zhang Shengdong quietly with complicated emotions.

The scene was at a stalemate, and Zhang Shengdong was unwilling to take the initiative to speak, so he sat in an office chair and drank tea.

"My bare points can be used to apply for prestigious schools. I don't need to take the art exam."

"Mr. Zhang, I have nothing to do, so I'll go back to my self-study." As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Ming took the score of "The Lonely Brave" from his desk, and walked towards the door.

Just as he was taking the first step out of the office, Zhang Shengdong's voice came from behind his ears.

"Wait, who made me personally like this song so much. You're selling the right to use it. There is no place to accept your song except schools."

"I'll give you two options. First, sell the full copyright to the school, and I'll talk to the finance department and quote 5 yuan; second, the school will buy the right to use your song for two years and pay you 3 yuan."

Lu Ming turned around and came back, put the sheet music on his desk, and said, "I'll choose the second one. Shanshui High School is my alma mater, and it's okay to sell the right to use it for two years at a low price of 3 yuan."

"Too much self-confidence is arrogance. Are you full?"

"Full, zero two months."

"Okay, go back and study on your own. I'll report it to the finance department to draw up a contract for you, and then ask Wang Ying to ask you to sign it."

Lu Ming turned to look at the big banyan tree outside the window. After making money, he felt as calm as dead water. Perhaps he didn't expect the school to lower the price so much, and said, "I accept cash."

However, when the school asks him to renew the fee two years later, the underpaid money will be returned.Perhaps Zhang Shengdong felt that his authority had been challenged and did not reply to Lu Ming.

Lu Ming didn't have the patience to wait for his reply, and walked out of the office directly.

During class time, even the teacher could hardly be seen in the corridor, and the deadly silence spread. After taking a few steps up the stairs, Lu Ming turned and went down, rushed out of the teaching building and ran to the playground.

He stood on the green plastic track and ran desperately until he was panting heavily in his throat and his limbs began to ache, so he simply let go of his strength and lay down on the plastic lawn, turning his head to look in the direction of the third classroom, and he saw Tao Xinyi at a glance long ponytail.

After he calmed down, Lu Ming stood up and searched all the sweet-scented osmanthus trees in the school. He broke off the branches of the sweet-scented osmanthus and kicked them into his pocket.The smell of rice from the canteen made his stomach growl.

When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, he walked into the cafeteria and ordered a luxurious set meal worth 32 yuan, which attracted the attention of the auntie.

On normal days, Lu Ming would certainly not be willing to eat such a luxurious meal, so he only ordered one meat and one vegetarian dish for six yuan.

I made money today, so I naturally opened up to eat, and I fed him directly, and the rice reached his throat.

When he returned to the classroom, there were only two or three people in the classroom, and Tao Xinyi was the only female classmate in the classroom.Lu Ming walked quietly behind her, held his breath, and patted her on the shoulder.

Tao Xinyi jumped up in fright. When she turned around and saw Lu Ming, she lowered her lips and said, "Childish!"

"Why did you eat so fast today? Or didn't you eat at all?" Lu Ming pulled away the chair, straddled it, and touched the sweet-scented osmanthus in his pocket with his right hand.

"I didn't go to eat, I just don't have an appetite." Tao Xinyi lay down on the table sadly, her slender figure was even more uneven under the tight school uniform, which made Lu Ming take a few more glances.

He stopped in front of Tao Xinyi's eyes with the osmanthus flower in his hand and shook it gently.

"The sweet-scented osmanthus flowers in the school haven't been thanked yet, but there are too few of them, so I can't see them from the classroom."

Tao Xinyi's eyes lit up, she took the sweet-scented osmanthus and said, "I'm in a better mood, you can go have dinner with me."

"Why did you stay with Teacher Wang for so long? You almost missed the meal."
