"I'm writing a script, not filming. Where can I see stars?"

Lin Chaoyang's words made Tao Yumo feel disappointed, "That's boring."

"Your brother-in-law wants to write, so don't disturb him if you have nothing to do."

Tao Yushu drove his sister away, followed Lin Chaoyang into the study, and said, "Chaoyang, there is something I want to discuss with you."

"What's up?"

"I have collected several royalties recently. I already have more than 4,000 yuan in my hand. Do you want to give Lin Fugui another sum of money?"

It's almost May now. In the past few months, Lin Chaoyang has not produced any works except for the novel for "Contemporary", but this does not prevent him from collecting royalties.

During this time he received several royalties.

First, the royalties for 20% of the print run of "Little Shoes" are 80 yuan;

The second is the National Outstanding Short Story Award with a bonus of 180 yuan;

The third is the manuscript fee for the work being reprinted by "People's Literature" because of the award and being published by the Humanities Society. The fee for reprinting is not high, only 3 yuan for 1,000 words.

However, the publishing fee is still considerable. This year's award-winning novels are published together, and the Humanities Society provides a uniform fee of 8 yuan per thousand words.

The total royalties for the two works totaled 495 yuan.

The other largest sum was the novel for "Contemporary". Lin Chaoyang received 2,000 yuan in royalties for the 200,000-word work.

Added together, Lin Chaoyang recently received a total of 2,755 yuan in royalties.

Adding in the money left in Tao Yushu's hands before, as well as their salaries, subsidies and royalties from Tao Yushu's occasional comments in the past two months, the couple already had as much as 4,260 yuan in money.

After finishing the calculation, Tao Yushu said to Lin Chaoyang relaxedly: "If we give Lin Fugui another sum of money, we will still have more than 700 yuan left, which is enough."

"Give it to him in advance? It's not necessary."

Tao Yushu nodded, "Okay, then let him wait until the day comes. Anyway, he can earn interest if he puts it in the bank."

With Tao Yushu's character, if he has money in hand, he will definitely deposit it in the bank to earn interest as soon as possible. Now, even during the survival period, he has three points of interest.

The couple discussed it and decided to deposit the money in the bank first and then pay it to Lin Fugui when the time comes.
