At Zhou Mu’s question, Chen Chuan perfunctorily replied, “She’s fine.”
“Look, we’ve got 11 guys altogether. If all the guys vote for Jinglan, she’ll earn 11 votes. Together with four or five votes from the girls, she’ll win the election!” Zhou Mu rubbed his palms. “She’ll gain at least one vote from the girls, won’t she? In this sense, as long as the guys do their part, she’ll sweep to victory.”
“What are you planning to do?” asked Chen Chuan.
“I’m thinking of spending some money treating a few guys to a meal and karaoke. I’ll then bring up this matter. I’ve got 1,600 yuan for my living allowance this month, and I’ll spend 800 yuan on the treat. But I’m afraid the amount may not be sufficient…” said Zhou Mu.
“Are you digging into your pockets to help Jinglan run for the class monitor election?”
Zhou Mu instantly waved in disagreement. “No. I’m just helping our class to get a responsible monitor! Let me be frank… Do you want to join me to settle this? Each of us forks out 800 yuan.”
Chen Chuan shook his head. It was because he knew for sure that the girl was not Jinglan. According to the novel, the monitor of Chinese Class 1 was an ordinary-looking, short-haired girl.
Changing this part might be difficult.
Ding!
‘I’ll just play LOL for a minute.’
Chen Chuan changed the subject. “Let’s gang up. Which area are you in? I’m in the Freljord.”
“Same here… Come on.” After logging in to his account, Zhou Mu said, “Just to give you a heads-up, I’m very powerful. I’ll lead you to victory and give you the thrill! I hope you can lend a hand with the matter regarding the class monitor… ”
“We’ll talk about it later.” Chen Chuan was eager to start the game. He felt like picking the Sword Saint.
Equipped with [Heart Of Sword Saint], he wanted to experience how the Sword Saint job’s abilities would be under Master skills.
If he performed the job well, he could probably be the Jungler champion versus five players.
However, Zhou Mu picked the sword within a second…
Zhou Mu said, “I’m a professional Sword Saint who can gank. Do play defensively and let me farm for 15 minutes.”
…
Then came lunchtime at noon.
Brother Long and the others were eating outside. Sure enough, they did not call to invite Chen Chuan and Zhou Mu to lunch.
Both of them played the game in the dorm until 11:30 am. They felt a bit hungry by then, so they went for lunch together.
It had been a complicated gaming experience for Chen Chuan this morning. He did not manage to seize any swords as Zhou Mu held them all. As for Zhou Mu’s scores, they were mostly 6–15, 7–16, and 8–19.
“Let’s have a great lunch to buck ourselves up. What do you think about grilled fish?” suggested Chen Chuan.
“That Shujiang Grilled Fish Restaurant near the West Gate? That’s my hometown dish. I’d like to go there, but I can barely afford it. Let’s have Ramen instead. I know a great Ramen restaurant. It’ll be my treat!” said Zhou Mu.
“Let’s head to that grilled fish restaurant first.” Chen Chuan led the way.
Both of them entered the restaurant to ask about the menu and found out that Litchi Spicy Qingjiang Fish was the signature dish. The three-kilogram fish cost 150 yuan, whereas the two-person combo meal that came with a fish, side dish, and drink, was priced at 197 yuan.
Chen Chuan had ordered a two-person combo meal, yet he was afraid that it would not be sufficient. He then ordered the best-selling dish in the restaurant—Yangcheng Lake Hairy Crab. The set meal came with four male crabs of 3.5 taels each and four females of 2.5 taels each and was worth 560 yuan.
The hairy crabs made Zhou Mu’s mouth water. However, he kept waving his hand in refusal upon hearing the price. “No no no! How can I possibly afford this?”
Chen Chuan ordered a set meal, which included hairy crabs and grilled fish. It was 777 yuan altogether.
After paying 777 yuan, Chen Chuan received a system message. [You have spent 777 yuan. You have earned double cashback totaling 1,554 yuan. The amount has been transferred to your account.]
With a faint voice, Zhou Mu asked, “You’ve promised to treat, right. I can’t afford to pay for this meal worth 700-plus yuan, nor can I go Dutch. I’ll be able to treat you to a 69-yuan buffet, at most.”
“Why bother the money? Meals are all on me,” said Chen Chuan.
“I can sense the aura of wealth. Chen Chuan, are you concealing your real identity? I’m drooling at the thought of the yellow, aromatic crab roe as well as its delicious meat. Haha, I should thank Brother Long for not inviting us to the meal. We won’t be enjoying such a wonderful seafood feast otherwise.” Zhou Mu danced for joy happily.
A big plate full of red, aromatic hairy crabs was served.
As the dish had whetted their appetite, both of them put down their cell phones and began to feast on the crabs.
The crab cream was sweet and filling. The crab meat also had a sweet taste and firm texture, but without the slightest fishy odor. Despite the subtle flavor of the steamed crabs, they still gave off a unique aroma.
With a spoonful of roe scooped into his mouth, the lovely flavor instantly filled Zhou Mu’s taste buds. The sensation was pleasurable.
He was content with the feast. He kept taking photos of the food and shared them on Moments. He even captioned the photos to brag about the feast. [Full of crab cream! Delicious white hairy crabs do actually taste sweet!]
As Chen Chuan enjoyed the food, he received a message from Sixian of Yuanzhu Enterprise. The message consisted of a few pictures of the renovation works that were being carried out in an orderly condition in the hotpot restaurant.
A quotation came after the pictures. It showed exactly one million yuan. With the price of each item listed clearly on it, everything seemed transparent.
Based on the pictures Sixian sent, the renovation turned out quite well.
After a while, Chen Chuan transferred one million yuan to Sixian.
[You have spent 1,000,000 yuan. You have earned double cashback totaling 2,000,000 yuan. The amount has been transferred to your account.] A system message flashed by.
Needless to say, people would usually not pay for renovation in full. Upfront payments would be incurred in any other projects apart from renovation.
What if it did not turn out well after a full payment had been made?
As his family’s hotpot restaurant had been operating for years, the water supply and electrical systems had been structured. This meant that the interior finishes were all ready and only furnishings were left to be done. In terms of furnishings, they were less problematic. Even if any problems arose, he could just get them fixed.
Chen Chuan did not really care whether the renovation would turn out well.
He could solve anything by paying out one million yuan. If there were any problems, he could simply spend one million yuan again.
Right after that, the second system message flashed by. “The fourth slot of the Ringwraith has been unlocked. You can withdraw the item from the fourth slot. You are entitled to utilize it.”
Chen Chuan twitched a little. He put down the aromatic crab he was eating, then he wiped his hands. He used his right hand to touch the Ringwraith on his left hand. Closing his eyes slowly, he checked the item in the fourth slot.
After the fog had been lifted, he saw a white bag in the fourth slot.
[White Heaven and Earth Bag]: Set a target, and all the special tools of the target will be transferred into the bag within three months. You can withdraw items from the bag and utilize them. However, you need to pay the corresponding fee.
PS: Each time [Heaven and Earth Bag] is activated, you need to pay one million yuan to open it.
“[White Heaven and Earth Bag] Ah…”
Chen Chuan looked at the guide of the magic item carefully. He found this item of a divine level, quite great.
If he set the target as [Du Hao], the various tools that Du Hao obtained using Golden Touch would be transferred into the bag.
If he recalled correctly, Du Hao had obtained quite a lot of great stuff.
At such thought, Chen Chuan set the target as Du Hao through his consciousness.
[The target setting for the Heaven and Earth Bag has been successful. Target: Du Hao. In the next three months, all the special tools that Du Hao obtains will be transferred into this bag.]
Chen Chuan asked himself, ‘Won’t Du Hao notice when he fails to obtain any tool over the three months?’
[The target’s tools will be substituted with golden leaves.]
‘Oh, this is how it works…’
Chen Chuan had fully grasped the idea.
He wondered how Du Hao would feel getting golden leaves for three consecutive months…
