Chapter 1: Shenhao Game APP

(Multiple female leads + parallel world in 2021)

(A tycoon game harem novel. Life is hard, this book is for brothers to fantasize, if you don't like it, don't enter)

"Du Ze, let's get a divorce! It's been three years. Everyone else is making progress and working hard every day, but you're still stuck in the same place!"

"How am I not working hard? Lin Zhenru! I get up early and work late every day for you! I haven't rested a single day out of 365 days a year! I even write online novels during Chinese New Year!"

"So what? You've been writing for three years, but can you afford a house or a car? The money you've earned from online novels all these years can't even buy me a handbag!

You can't give me the life I want!

Let's just get a divorce!"

Du Ze, who had just turned thirty today, experienced the darkest moment of his life: divorce in the morning, losing his job in the afternoon. Several years of hard work drifting in Shanghai turned to naught in an instant.

He recalled his past with his ex-wife, Lin Zhenru. They got married after a few blind dates. To satisfy her request to stay in the magical city, his parents sold their house and borrowed money to make a down payment on their marital home.

Lin Zhenru disliked his unstable job and low income. He desperately changed jobs and worked part-time writing online novels, but still couldn't satisfy her. Lin Zhenru became vain and loved to compare, and eventually, their marriage came to an end.

Du Ze was unwilling, but he could only watch Lin Zhenru pack her luggage and get into another man's car.

He knew who that man was; he was probably a regular customer at the beauty salon where Lin Zhenru worked, driving a white Maserati.

At that moment, Du Ze completely gave up hope.

Some people are born in Rome, while others are destined to be oxen and horses. But Du Ze had even lost the qualifications to be an ox or a horse.

At thirty, Du Ze not only lost his wife and house, but also his job!

"To hell with it, I'll just start over."

Du Ze smashed the beer bottle in his hand against the wall to vent his frustration, then suddenly saw a WeChat message on his phone.

"Lao Du, take this money as your birthday gift. Live in the house for as long as you want, don't worry about the rent or anything until you find a job."

Below the WeChat message was a transfer of ten thousand yuan.

The sender of this WeChat message was Xia Jia.

Xia Jia was a friend Du Ze met after coming to the magical city, and he became a brother who might be with him for life.

Xia Jia was a local resident of the magical city. Although not from a wealthy family, through demolition, he managed to own several houses in the magical city, where every inch of land is precious.

Knowing that Du Ze had sold his house, he let Du Ze temporarily stay in one of his houses.

Last night, knowing that Du Ze had lost his job, he even specifically invited him out for a drink.

Du Ze also felt he owed too much to this good brother.

After getting married, he had been busy with work and writing online novels, so he hadn't contacted Xia Jia for a long time.

He never expected that after his divorce, Xia Jia would quickly step forward and help him in his time of need.

"Brothers are like limbs, women are like clothes. The ancients truly did not deceive me!"

Du Ze reflected on his pain and decided to turn over a new leaf and start anew.

【Installation Complete】

【Come and start your tycoon life!】

While Du Ze was still hesitating whether to accept the ten thousand yuan transfer, a pop-up suddenly appeared on his phone.

Tycoon life?

The words on the pop-up seemed to carry a mysterious magic, instantly grabbing Du Ze's attention.

The next second, Du Ze saw an app icon appear on his phone's desktop, a golden coin representing wealth.

"tycoon game?"

Du Ze used to love games and even worked for a game company because of it.

However, after marrying Lin Zhenru, he gave up this lifelong hobby because she disliked it.

Now that a game had suddenly appeared on his phone for no reason, Du Ze wondered if it was a virus, but he still curiously clicked on it.

After a series of registration applications, the game began.

This seemed to be a game similar to Monopoly.

However, when creating a character, a character named Du Ze directly appeared in the game.

Even the character's image was extremely similar to Du Ze in reality.

During the day, Du Ze would definitely suspect whether this game was using his camera or stealing his information.

But at this moment, having drunk a lot and feeling drowsy, he didn't pay attention and just started playing.

As Du Ze pressed a 'move forward' button, a dice appeared in the center of the screen.

Six pips!

The little character in the game, looking like Du Ze, then started walking on the game map, which seemed to be modeled after the magical city.

When the character stopped, Du Ze immediately saw a prompt box:

"Congratulations, player, you have arrived at the Lucky Draw Center! You have received a beginner's ten-pull. Would you like to start drawing immediately?"

"A lucky draw already? What if I didn't roll a six?"

Although he hadn't touched games for a long time, Du Ze still guessed the game's purpose with the eye of a former game planner.

Starting with a ten-pull, could this be a 'pay-to-win' game?

Despite his doubts, Du Ze still clicked on the lucky draw.

"Congratulations, player, you have won five hundred thousand in cash!"

"Congratulations, player, you have drawn nothing!"

"Congratulations, player, you have won one hundred thousand in cash!"

"Congratulations, player, you have drawn a random quest card!"

"Congratulations, player, you have drawn an item card: Vengeance!"

"Congratulations, player, you have won one hundred thousand in cash!"

...After the ten-pull, Du Ze received a total of one million in funds, as well as an item card and a random quest card.

He smiled, increasingly convinced that this was probably a segment designed to stimulate consumption.

Using a free ten-pull at the start to trick players into spending money.

But isn't the money you're giving away in this segment a bit too little?

One million?

In this type of Monopoly-like game, one million can't even be considered starting capital, can it?

With such a stingy ten-pull, how could it trick players into spending money?

If it were him, he would at least give away something like a Lamborghini in the beginner's ten-pull.

After a brief mockery of the game developer's unprofessionalism, Du Ze planned to roll the dice again to continue moving forward.

But at this moment, he found that the 'move forward' button in the game couldn't be clicked no matter what.

Unable to continue moving forward, the game seemed to be stuck here.

Du Ze tried it a bit and quickly lost patience.

He had already drunk a lot that night, and now drowsiness surged again, so he simply closed the game and went to sleep.

"Garbage game, I'll delete you tomorrow!"

After that, he had a dreamless night.

The next morning, Du Ze was woken up by his work alarm.

Sitting up in bed with his phone, he suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to need to go to work anymore?

Turning off the alarm, he was about to go back to sleep when his phone rang again.

"Hello?"

"Hello, are you Mr. Du Ze? I'm a customer service representative from China Merchants Bank. We've found that your account balance has reached one million, and we suggest you come to the bank as soon as possible to complete the procedures to upgrade your savings card!"

A very pleasant female voice was on the other end of the line.

But Du Ze thought the other party was some kind of scammer.

What one million in deposits?

If I had a million in deposits, would I need to borrow money from Xia Jia?

Du Ze directly hung up the phone. Just as he was about to lie down, he suddenly saw a text message notification on his phone.

When he clearly saw the content of the text message, his whole body instantly froze.

"Dear China Merchants Bank customer, your bank card ending in 9896 has received 1,000,000.00 yuan!"
