Chapter 1: Freedom is the wind? Unless you have money!
Devil!
Old South City District!
At 11 o'clock in the evening, the shantytown was still noisy with all kinds of noises. Many people who had just got off work were sitting at the night snack stalls drinking, chatting, and expressing their inner distress.
Su Chen also dragged his tired body back to his rental house of less than ten square meters.
As soon as he entered the room, Su Chen lay down on the bed without even taking off his yellow battle suit.
He stared blankly at the dilapidated ceiling.
Su Chen is also a veteran Shanghai migrant. After graduating from high school, he believed the theory of the uselessness of studying promoted by those "experts" on the Internet, and thought that he would be able to create a bright future with his intelligence and talent.
Despite his parents' strong persuasion, Su Chen resolutely embarked on the journey to Shanghai.
When he first arrived in Shanghai, Su Chen still dreamed of joining a big company, working hard to get a promotion and a raise, becoming the general manager, becoming a CEO, and marrying a beautiful, rich and beautiful woman!
Unfortunately, reality always gives these young people who have just entered society a heavy blow.
Not to mention entering a big company, Su Chen doesn't even have the qualifications for an interview with his high school diploma.
In the end, the young man’s unyielding character allowed Su Chen to take root in the Magic City!
In a blink of an eye, Su Chen has been in the Magic City for four years!
I have worked as a security guard, a car washer, a screw driver, and a factory worker! Finally, I became an expert in solving stomach hunger symptoms!
He also gradually changed from a hopeful young man pursuing his dreams to a hardworking ox who gets up early and works late!
“I am still living alone in this fast-paced city. I once had dreams, but nothing came of them. I can only rely on a song.”
Hearing the ringing of the cell phone in his pocket, Su Chen, with lifeless eyes, gradually came back to his senses.
Looking at the caller ID on the phone, Su Chen hesitated for a moment before gently sliding his finger across the screen.
"Hey, Mom, it's so late and you haven't rested yet!"
While speaking, Su Chen glanced at the time on his phone. It was exactly 12 o'clock in the morning.
"Xiaochen...Mom~I hope I didn't disturb you!" Su's mother's voice came from the phone, with a little nervousness in her tone.
When Su Chen heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
Did something happen at home? Otherwise, my mother wouldn't call me at this time.
"No, I just got back from get off work! Did something happen at home?" Su Chen also sat up from the bed, his heart beating faster.
I was afraid of hearing something bad on the phone.
"Something happened? Nothing happened at home! Your grandma will be 70 next month, and your dad is thinking of holding a 70th birthday party for your grandma. I thought of calling you and asking if you have time to come back." There was some anticipation in Su's mother's slightly trembling voice.
Su Chen fell silent upon hearing this!
You should know that Su Chen has been working in Shanghai for more than four years. During these four years, he has never gone back once. Every Chinese New Year, he always says that he is too busy with work and has no time!
But what is the truth?
But these were all Su Chen's excuses. He simply felt that he had been in the Magic City for several years, but had not made any money, and his job was not a very decent one.
If you go back to your hometown for the New Year, you will inevitably be asked all kinds of questions by your relatives. If your relatives know your current situation, they will gossip about you behind your back.
Comparing children's jobs and incomes is common everywhere, even among relatives.
By then, all the relatives at home will say that Su Chen has been working in Shanghai for several years, but his monthly salary is only a few thousand yuan, and he is still living in a big city like Shanghai, but he still doesn’t earn as much as my son does in a month!
This would not only make Su Chen feel embarrassed, but also his parents would lose face.
After all, who doesn’t want their son to have a good job!
Su Chen once fantasized about becoming the "other people's child" in the eyes of his relatives!
"Hey, Xiaochen, are you listening?" Seeing that Su Chen didn't respond for a long time, Su's mother couldn't help but ask.
"Mom, I might."
Before Su Chen could say anything, he heard a strong and angry voice coming from the other end of the phone.
"Chen Shufen, why did you call that bastard? Didn't I tell you not to call him? The bastard has grown independent now and has been away from home for a few years. What's the point of talking to him? You are such an ignorant woman. Hang up now!"
"I know. My son hasn't been back for four years. I miss him! I don't know how he is doing outside!" Su's mother retorted unhappily.
"If he's doing well, will that bastard come back for the New Year? If he really made a lot of money, he would have come back to show off. Well, I won't say any more. I still have to go to work tomorrow. Don't tell me too much. It's not easy for the little bastard out there!"
"Alright, alright, you're the one who talks too much, go to sleep!"
Listening to the vague conversation on the phone, Su Chen knew that it was Su's mother covering the phone with her hand, as if she was afraid that he would hear it.
"Hello, Xiaochen, Mom knows you are busy with work and don't have time. You should take care of your health. It's getting late. I'll hang up first!" After saying that, without waiting for Su Chen to respond, Su's mother hung up the phone.
Looking at the phone that had been hung up in his hand, Su Chen's eyes were already filled with tears.
Su Chen only hated himself for being incompetent. If he had studied hard and been admitted to a good university, perhaps his life would have been different.
"There is no turning back in life. All we can do is keep our heads down and keep moving forward!"
Wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, Su Chen opened the text messages on his mobile phone and looked at the balance information of his bank card.
"88480.85!"
Looking at these numbers, Su Chen couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile on his face.
This is the money Su Chen saved up through hard work for more than four years in Shanghai.
After a year, leaving aside the expenses for food, clothing, housing and transportation, I only saved about 20,000 yuan.
Shanghai is so big, it’s hard to live here!
This is a paradise for the rich and a hell for the poor!
"Ding, the host's infinite desire for money has been detected, and the God of Wealth system is binding."
"10%"
"50%"
"100%"
"The God of Wealth system has been successfully bound!"
The mechanical sound in his mind made Su Chen look ecstatic. As a senior online literature enthusiast, how could he not know what was going on! !
system? !
surprise?
What the hell is a surprise?
Now that’s a surprise!
Su Chen sat up from the bed with some trembling. Just as he was about to ask what functions the system had, he felt a piece of information emerging in his mind, which was a simple introduction to the system.
There is not a lot of information, just a brief introduction to the basic functions of the system.
But this was enough to make Su Chen very excited. He took several deep breaths before his heart calmed down.
"Open the system panel!"
A deep blue light curtain with a sense of science fiction appeared in front of Su Chen.
[Host: Su Chen]
[Primary God of Wealth: 0/100 million]
【Wealth: 0 yuan】
[Warehouse: None]
[Primary God of Wealth: Earn one dollar every second]
One dollar per second?
That day was not 86400!
That’s 260 million a month!
It’s only 31 million a year!
"It's not that much when you calculate it this way. Compared to those people who make hundreds of thousands of dollars every minute, it seems that my system is a bit weak!"
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, Su Chen raised his hand and slapped himself in the face!
"Snapped!"
"Damn! I've really gotten too cocky! The system's revenue from just one day is equivalent to my four years of hard work. How can I not be satisfied?"
Moreover, according to the information provided by the system in my mind, as long as my consumption reaches one million, the God of Wealth system will be upgraded, and my income will also change. As for the specific amount, the system did not mention it, and I will know it only after the upgrade.
"System, where is my novice gift pack??? Hand it over quickly!!!" Su Chen finally reacted. According to convention, there should be a novice gift pack rewarded by the system, but why is it gone when it's his turn?
I waited for about ten seconds, but there was no response from the system.
"Is there no novice gift package in my system?"
Just when Su Chen was about to accept this cruel reality, a crisp mechanical sound rang in his mind.
[Ding~ How can the host who has the God of Wealth system be inferior to others? Here is a newbie task: Resignation! Please apply for resignation before 5 pm tomorrow. Complete the task and you will be rewarded with a newbie gift pack! ]
Hearing the voice of the system, a smile appeared on Su Chen's face.
It seems that our system is still a conscientious system! ——
"My dear Uncle Su, look at what time it is now! It's half past ten and the sun is shining brightly. Do you still want to go to this class?"
Hearing the roar coming from the phone, Su Chen, who was still a little dazed, jumped up from the bed instantly.
While searching for his yellow battle robe, he said, "Wei Ge, I'll get up right away!"
"Hurry up, or your bonus for this month will be deducted! Also, don't call me Viagra!!!"
"Got it, Viagra!"
"Grass!"
Su Chen had just put on half of his clothes when he suddenly remembered what happened last night and stopped what he was doing instantly.
"Tu(艹皿艹)! The genes of cattle and horses are almost engraved in their bones!"
Su Chen quickly called out the system panel.
[Host: Su Chen]
[Primary God of Wealth: 0/100 million]
【Wealth: 36052 yuan (to be withdrawn)】
When Su Chen saw the glittering 36,000 yuan on the system panel, his mouth almost stretched to his ears.
Rubbing his hands excitedly, Su Chen silently said in his mind: "Withdraw 36000!"
The next second, Su Chen received a message on the phone in his hand.
"Your CCB savings card with the last number 7890 has an income of 36000 yuan, and the current balance is 124480.85 yuan!"
Looking at the text message on his phone, Su Chen could no longer suppress his excitement and laughed wantonly in the rental house, muttering to himself, "Really, it's true, I'm not dreaming, hahahaha!"
Fortunately, the surrounding tenants had all gone to work, otherwise Su Chen's laughter would have surely attracted a barrage of abuse.
After adjusting his mindset, Su Chen also remembered the tasks issued by the system last night. The most important thing now was to complete the novice tasks first.
Su Chen is still looking forward to the novice gift package.
Su Chen picked out a sports outfit from the few clothes he had, and went out carrying the yellow battle robe.
Ride your beloved electric scooter towards the station.
"Still free myself, forever singing my song, traveling thousands of miles."
The wind was filled with Su Chen's cheerful singing.
I'm a new author, so I hope you can forgive me if there's anything I don't like!
Everyone, please collect more!
Thank you all in advance!
