章節 4: The first gacha
General pov
"So uncle Mitch, what about the song that I wrote ? Can you register the copyright for it ?
And did you find someone that wants to buy it ?" Harry said to Mitchell while drinking his chocolate milk in a wine glass and pretending to swirl his milk around like it's some old wine.
"I already registered the copyright separately for the lyrics and music so you can relax, it's yours and yours only" Mitchell said to Harry while sipping his wine .
"So who's name did you use for the copyright ? and how about the buyer ?" Harry asks Mitchell again.
"I use your mother's name just like you want to, and for the buyer… it's a bit harder, i haven't found someone that wants to buy rock/metal songs after all its pretty niche market compared to the other genres like pop or rock " Mitchell said honestly.
"Wait a second.. Why use my name ?" Claire suddenly cuts the conversation , she's a bit shocked hearing her name is being used by his son.
"Cause I'm too lazy dealing with the paperwork and I know my own mommy won't do anything that's bad for me, i trust mommy the most" Harry said while hugging his own mother and snuggling to her legs because she's standing near the table.
"Awwwhhh that is very sweet darling, but why don't you ask mommy first ?" Claire picks Harry up and kisses his chubby cheeks and makes him laugh around.
"Because it's a surprise too," Harry said while looking at his mother's eyes and pretending to be an innocent child while blinking his eyes slowly.
"Alright I lost, so stop those puppy eyes, you know that is not fair for me " Claire said with a bit of a smile.
"After all I'm your cute son, mommy " Harry said while grinning.
"Yes dear, you're my cute son" Claire said happily.
After a small break Claire brings Harry home to their own house, and finds out that Haley is still watching tv while Phil was busy feeding Baby Alex with some milk.
"Alright Haley it's time to sleep, go wash your face and brush your teeth before going to bed" Claire said to her.
"10 more minutes mommy~ " Haley said .
"no , it's already past your bedtime darling, now go to bed~" Claire said sternly.
"Aarrghh alright, but i wanna sleep with Harry tonight" Haley said cutely.
"Sure " Harry answered in an instant.
"Fine " claire said to her child
"I always sleep better when I sleeping while cuddling someone, doesn't matter who, Haley, Mommy or Dad it all the same~" Harry said lightly
"Yeah , mommy knows you're a spoiled brat who loves to be cuddled" Claire said while smirking.
"Not really, while I'm sleeping with Haley, I'm the one who cuddled her" Harry answered his mother.
"Just go to bed baby" Claire said impatiently.
"Night mom" Harry said while running away to his bed, where Haley was already sleeping.
"Night Harry" Claire said to him.
"So everyone is already sleeping babe ?" Phil said to his wife.
"Yeah, now it's our turn to rest today, I'm so tired Phil" Claire said weakly
"You don't want to, you know, give Alex a younger sister or brother ? " Phil said
"Not today Phil, I'm exhausted" Claire said to her husband.
But soon enough Phil and his wife are making a sound from their bedroom that a good child cannot hear, even after 3 children they are still so hardworking in making the next generation of Dunphy family line.
Harry pov
After Cuddling Haley for a while I can feel she's already sleeping and now I can focus on researching my system. I already have enough idle points for 3 gacha draw at lv 4, should I wait to draw lv 5 gacha ? nah it's gonna take over a year of saving for lv 5 gacha, maybe it's better to do 30 draws at lv 3 gacha ? yeah lets do that and hope i got some talent..
System draws 30 gacha at level 3.
Start the gacha….. And i got
Completed Harry potter novel x 1
Nice try, please try again x 14
Swimming talent lv 3 x 1
$ 20 USD x 4
Passive ability immune to poison x 1
Song love story - taylor swift x 1
A wooden spoon x 3
Passive abilities income 10 times more x1
A white sock x 3
Investing talent lv 3 x 1
Alright.. So i got 2 talent swimming and investing huh, it's pretty good the system told me lv 3 is basically almost as good as a human can be, so lv 3 talent is just like a gold medalist in the olympic and 2 passive abilities, both are very useful but how the 10 times more income works ? and then the system told me the money that i make, i will get 10 times more in an offshore bank account and i can transfer it to me whenever i wanted to, and i can even put some of it in cash form in the system inventory just like the $ 80 that i got from gacha, so it's very useful, and the best part is no tax, the system count my gross income, not the income after tax and that for some reason turn me on….. Even joker won't go against the IRS but with magic, the IRS won't come after me, and I can explain to my family with basic stuff like I became a consultant or something, with my investing talent, making money will be easier than breathing.
I can understand the nice try, please try again, but what do wooden spoons and white socks do in my gacha ? isn't this basically trash ? system ? really ? A novel and a song are very useful. I can simply type it and make more money, but for now let's wait for my Band of Brothers and Primo Victoria first. Let's see how much I can earn from this book and song, if I can sell the song.
I hope Uncle Mitchell found a buyer for my song, and for the publisher to love my book.
A few days later the first news come to me, the publisher agree on my term but they wont giving me any signing fee, so i only got paid based on how much my book get sold, but i agree on it and decide to play the long time gain, lets bet whenever i'll be making a big bucks or making peanuts on my first book, for the song uncle Mitchell haven't found any buyer yet, but there are some talking with a few companies that interested in my song, so now i just need to wait for how much my book gonna get sold, can it reach 10 thousand copies ? 100 thousand copies ? or maybe even more ? I don't have any ideas…
So I can only hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
Uncle Mitchell finally tell me that the book will be sell publicly 3 month after now, because the publisher need to take care the printing and marketing for it, and because i don't want to do any fan meet or interview, it's gonna be harder to promote the book, i don't worry about that because i don't wanna be famous, and he hasn't found any buyer from my song, but a few producer want to meet me to talk about the song, he said that they have some interest but before finalize the deal, they want to meet me to talk more about the song and finally i agree to meet them monday, at noon.
"I still don't know why they want to meet me before buying the song " i complained to uncle Mitchell
"The producers said they need to talk to you directly about the song cause they want you to produce the song too, after all you're the one who wrote it dear" Mitchell said calmly.
"They are not wrong, I'm just a bit lazy to do it uncle. "I said to my uncle Mitch.
"Well it's just a business kid, nothing personal, you can try meet them first at monday to see how it will go on in the future, after all universal music is one of the biggest music company and one of the biggest record labels company" uncle Mitchell said to me.
"So who am I gonna meet again ? " I ask uncle Mitchell.
"Her name is patricia maxwell, you can relax, i already told her you're only 4 years old and i'm gonna be there as well, so if you're uncomfortable, we can just cancel the deal and search for another buyer" uncle Mitch said slowly to me.
"Alright , just pick me up on Monday then, and don't forget to tell mom, she's gonna be worried if you don't tell her where we're gonna go" i tell him calmly.
"Sure, I can tell her that, she knows how smart you are after all, so she trusts you more than you know, and maybe your father can come too ? I can ask whether he is free on Monday afternoon."
"Hmm, father is still at the open house, well you can ask him, it's gonna be fun if he decides to come. I just hope he can come because he seems so busy selling houses these days. Is the housing market that active in 1997 ?" I ask my uncle.
"Well I guess the area around here is one of the hottest housing markets right now, so many people are buying, selling, even flipping houses" uncle Mitch explained to me.
"Then is buying and selling houses more profitable than becoming a realtor ?" I asked him.
"If it is done right, then yeah it is, but the tax and the risk is also way higher, so i don't really think it's a good idea unless you have a lot of spare cash and you don't know where to invest it, most people just invest in stock you know ? " Uncle Mitch told me.
"Stock is a good place to invest if you know what you're doing, but it also take a lot of research and a big capital to be profitable, or a bravery to do an exaggerated amount to leverage , like 100 times , or 10 times, if you do it correctly, you're a genius in investing and if you're wrong, you're a fool that burning money as fast as you clap your hand" i said to uncle Mitch.
"You're not wrong about that kid, but most people just buy a safe investment like a government bond or just put their money in a deposit to gain some money from the interest" uncle Mitch said to me.
"Yeah, I will see you on monday uncle Mitch, have a nice night hahaha, maybe have some fun with your friends or look for a date ? " I said, teasing my own uncle.
"Alright , stop teasing me and go to bed Harry, I will see you on Monday okay" uncle Mitch told me while going back from my house.
"Bye bye uncle~" I said cutely.
"Bye kid"
I can't wait for monday, lets hope i can get what i want.
