“We understand that you have a loan with interest due next month. We happen to have an installment plan event with discounted handling fees…”
Bai Zhenzhen hung up the phone. Thinking about the twenty thousand yuan in interest she had to pay next month, and the less than ten thousand yuan in her bank account, she felt like she couldn't lie down anymore.
“Sigh… it was great to pass the first round of Foundation Establishment exams.”
“But the money is all gone.”
The pressure of repaying the loan, the intensity of the exams, the bleak future… all of this immediately diluted Bai Zhenzhen’s joy from passing the first round of Foundation Establishment exams and learning the Eternal Sword Art for free.
Although she could barely cover her loan repayments and maintain basic cultivation expenses with her tutoring income.
But when she thought about her opponents in the Foundation Establishment exams, Bai Zhenzhen strongly felt that basic cultivation… was far from enough.
“If I want to continue improving rapidly, I have to throw money at it! Throw money! And throw more money!”
“How am I going to make big money after going back this time?”
After pondering for a moment, Bai Zhenzhen told Zhang Yu about her worries.
Then, a fierce look suddenly appeared on Bai Zhenzhen's face, and she said, “Yu, why don't we just officially join the Dark Learning Gang and participate in gang fights to make money!”
At this moment, Bai Zhenzhen's strength had reached the level of a senior in high school, reaching the late stage of Qi Refining. With the addition of her True Spirit Root, several level 10 cultivation techniques after deduction, and the Eternal Sword Art, Bai Zhenzhen's words carried a sense of肃殺之气 (肅殺之氣 - a solemn and stern atmosphere).
Zhang Yu frowned and said, “Participate in gang fights… officially join a gang?”
He worried, “Will we have to kill people?”
Bai Zhenzhen nodded, equally worried, “Killing people is indeed…”
“Sigh,” Bai Zhenzhen sighed, “Although the Dark Learning Gang has guarantees, what if the compensation after killing someone… ends up being more than we earn?”
Are you worried about that?
Zhang Yu looked at Bai Zhenzhen helplessly. Even after living here for almost a year, he still couldn't keep up with the thinking of these Kunxu locals sometimes.
Bai Zhenzhen continued, “Then, how about… I participate in cultivation technique modification? Or just sell what we learned this time?”
“This kind of big score should sell for a lot of money, right?”
Thinking of this, Bai Zhenzhen's eyes lit up.
Zhang Yu understood that Bai Zhenzhen wanted to sell bootleg copies of the Eternal Sword Art she had learned?
Zhang Yu said helplessly, “Why are you talking more and more criminally, more and more dangerously? If you get caught selling such a precious cultivation technique, you're done for.”
Bai Zhenzhen said matter-of-factly, “How can poor people like us earn big money without doing dangerous work? Do you think safe and profitable jobs are available to us?”
“If we hadn't learned something good this time, we wouldn't even be able to do this!”
Zhang Yu sighed again helplessly and said, “Let me think about it.”
He originally thought that after becoming stronger, he could earn more money through tutoring or something.
But after witnessing the strength of the Immortal Capital fellows this time, Zhang Yu increasingly felt that money was still not enough.
So, regarding the next arrangements, Zhang Yu wanted to consult someone.
A moment later, taking advantage of Bai Zhenzhen's trip to the toilet, Fu Ji was awakened by Zhang Yu.
“Hoo…” After a groan, Fu Ji said lazily, “How is it? Did you pass the first round of Foundation Establishment exams?”
Zhang Yu nodded and explained the general situation.
Upon hearing this, Fu Ji was overjoyed. As an evil god with rich scamming experience, she immediately sensed the other party's worries about the upcoming Foundation Establishment exams from Zhang Yu's words.
Fu Ji thought to herself, “This kid won't be able to resist for long. He will definitely hunt my colleague to further enhance his potential.”
Fu Ji understood this very well. After all, she could feel the strength of those Immortal Capital students just by listening to Zhang Yu's description.
Especially Number 23 and Number 11, whose strength was far ahead.
And when she heard Zhang Yu's thoughts on making money, Fu Ji said directly, “Delving deeper into the dark tutoring world is indeed a good route.”
“However, things like modifying cultivation techniques and deducing cultivation techniques are too deep. You don't have the strength to handle them yet.”
Zhang Yu: “What about becoming a gold-medal teacher in the Dark Learning Gang? How much can we earn with our current level?”
Fu Ji said, “To become a gold-medal teacher in the Dark Learning Gang, you also have to face gang warfare.”
“For example, teachers from the opposing side come to challenge you, local gangs target you, the company's security team chases you…”
“After becoming a gold-medal teacher in the Dark Learning Gang, the more you earn, the more famous you become, the more terrifying the attacks you encounter, and the stronger you need to be.”
Not strong enough again? Zhang Yu realized that after going around in circles, it seemed to have come back to the same place.
Just then, Fu Ji said, “Actually, with your own terrifying potential, if you were to be improved again, I think even if you don't earn a lot of money, it would be enough to pass the Foundation Establishment exams.”
“Instead of being deeply involved in gang warfare with insufficient strength.”
“You should improve your potential.”
Zhang Yu knew that the other party was talking about hunting evil gods to enhance his potential.
This time, Zhang Yu did not object, but asked a question: “To hunt your colleague, I need to know his information. What do you plan to do?”
Fu Ji was overjoyed and immediately said her plan: “The Shadow Gu that the other party planted last time has been completely absorbed by me.”
“The instruction preset by the other party in the Shadow Gu was to transmit a message when you log in to the Hall of Inquiry.”
“As long as we follow Yu Xinghan and log in to the Spirit World Hall of Inquiry again like last time, I can send a fake message to the other party.”
“Through the fake message, we can invite the enemy into a trap, trick him out, and figure out his identity and strength.”
“And then find a chance to track down the other party's information and find an opportunity to suppress him severely…”
Zhang Yu said, “Then that brings us back to my original question.”
“Even with Yu Xinghan's connections, logging in costs one hundred thousand yuan.”
“Where am I going to get that much money?”
“So, I still have to work to save money first…”
Fu Ji said, already prepared, “You have to cultivate and work. When will you save up enough money? There are only two months left until the next round of exams.”
“I have thought of a way to help you earn some pocket money.”
Zhang Yu asked curiously, “What way?”
Fu Ji smiled mysteriously and said, “You have a unique feature that can be sold for a good price.”
Zhang Yu was slightly stunned. After thinking for a moment, his face froze, and he said in a low voice, “Are you… going to castrate me? And then sell that thing?”
At this moment, Zhang Yu found that his first thought was: How much can that thing sell for?
Zhang Yu sighed inwardly, “Damn it, Zhang Yu! You damn it! How did you become like this?! You're willing to sell your own flesh and blood for some stinky money?! Where has your sense of shame gone? Where is your noble Earth soul?”
“Sigh, how many Earthlings can come here and not go crazy? I'm just doing this as an expedient measure to climb the path of immortality.”
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!
Just as Zhang Yu was secretly feeling ashamed of his thoughts, he heard Fu Ji say speechlessly, “Are you sick? Why would I ask you to sell that?”
Zhang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking that this evil god was refuting him like this, it seemed that her moral integrity was even higher than his own, and the feeling of shame in his heart rose even higher.
Fu Ji said, “That's your production tool! It's a hen that lays golden eggs! Why would you dig it up and sell it directly?”
Damn it… Zhang Yu found that he still overestimated the evil god's quality. He frowned and said, “You… you want me to… go sell myself?”
“Sell my body?”
“Can that earn more than tutoring?”
Fu Ji became even more speechless and said, “How can that kind of unskilled work earn more than tutoring?”
She said with exasperation, “I want you to sell your essence, get some protein out to sell.”
“Ah?” Zhang Yu was shocked: “That can be sold for money?”
Fu Ji said, “Of course, it depends on whose protein it is and who you sell it to.”
“At least with your current performance, selling it to Red Pagoda Animal Husbandry to earn some pocket money shouldn't be a problem.”
“Because your rate of progress shows potential and talent.”
“They will be interested in your bloodline and genes.”
“And don't you have acquaintances at Red Pagoda High School? Have him connect you.”
Fu Ji chuckled and said, “As for whether Red Pagoda Animal Husbandry can get anything from your protein, that is obviously impossible.”
“Your strength comes from the potential I have stimulated, which has nothing to do with your bloodline, genes, or anything else.”
……
Protected area.
In the incubation room of the breeding base.
Xiong Wenwu, who was exhaling and inhaling, felt the vibration of his phone. He opened it and saw the message sent by Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu: I want to sell my **
……
Zhang Yu looked at the message sent by Xiong Wenwu.
Xiong Wenwu: Aren't you castrated?
Zhang Yu: I had a restoration surgery.
Xiong Wenwu: Oh.
Xiong Wenwu: I don't accept it
Zhang Yu said to Fu Ji in exasperation, “Look, they don't accept it at all!”
Fu Ji said, “What are you anxious about? This is a gray area in Red Pagoda. Talk to him as I told you to.”
So Zhang Yu sent a message to Xiong Wenwu again.
Zhang Yu: I mean, can you help me connect with Red Pagoda Animal Husbandry to see if they accept it
Zhang Yu: I'll send you the various body data I measured during the last monthly exam
Zhang Yu: Definitely an excellent male high school student, can you ask your company if they are interested
After a long while, Xiong Wenwu replied.
Xiong Wenwu: Tomorrow at eight o'clock, 32nd floor of Red Pagoda Building in the city center, go to Manager Xiong Haohan, he will talk to you.
Zhang Yu: Thank you!! When I sell more and earn money, I will definitely thank you.
Bai Zhenzhen, who had returned to her seat, looked at Zhang Yu's happy appearance and asked in confusion, “Yu, did you win the lottery?”
Zhang Yu chuckled and said, “A Zhen, do you know what's different between you and me?”
Bai Zhenzhen asked in confusion, “Huh?”
Zhang Yu said with a smug smile, “I have a production tool, but you don't.”
After hearing Zhang Yu's explanation, Bai Zhenzhen looked at Zhang Yu with jealousy: “Your broken root is really useful.”
The next morning, Zhang Yu came to the 32nd floor of the Red Pagoda Building. After expressing his intentions at the front desk, he was arranged to wait in a small conference room.
