Chapter 44 Higher Pursuit
Chapter 44 Higher Pursuit
"What did you realize?"
"If you can't explain it..."
Seeing this, a cross appeared on Chen Jue's forehead, and he silently took out the mosaic [Iron Sword].
For a poor student who has gone through six years of elementary school, six years of junior high school and high school, and four years of college, and has been tortured to death by countless textbook knowledge.
Looking at this mean villager who had learned so easily in a few seconds the knowledge that it took him more than ten years to acquire, Chen Jue wanted to chop it with a few swords right away to vent his anger.
"Don't!"
"Boss! Loyalty!"
"What I have done is understand some of the operating logic of the world where the boss lives."
Villager Chen Shang was probably frightened by the big sword. He raised his hands and begged for mercy, explaining in a tearful voice: "The world is bustling with people because of profit. The world is bustling with people because of profit."
"In the boss's world, 99% of problems can be solved with emeralds... or 'money'! The remaining problems that cannot be solved are usually due to insufficient money."
Chen Jue rolled his eyes immediately upon hearing this, and slapped it on the head with his Iron Sword: "Money is not everything, but without money you can do nothing. Do you need to teach me such a simple truth?"
This frivolous act almost frightened Chen Shang to death. He cried and continued to explain: "Boss, the difficulty you are facing now is that you cannot quickly, reasonably, and on a large scale bring MC products to the world."
"Because the existence of MCs violates the three basic values of this world."
"As the saying goes, knowledge gained from books is always shallow. I plan to follow the boss and take a closer look at the environment of this world. This way, I can better advise the boss on how to solve this problem."
Chen Shang shrank his neck and muttered softly, fearing that he would be hit by another sword.
“Does practice make perfect?”
"You are still useful. Stay with me and be my assistant to run errands." Chen Jue's expression looked better after hearing that.
Seeing the great sword hanging over his head withdrawn, Chen Shang weakly made a small request: "Boss... can you prepare some more [Bookshelves] from this world? Especially works related to business and economics, which will be of great help to my knowledge growth!"
Seeing its servile and flattering appearance, Chen Jue immediately smiled: "How did I attract a piece of shit like you? All right! When I have time, I'll buy you some new books to combine into a [Bookshelf]."
……
After spending some time to understand the behavior and logic of this villager Chen Shang, Chen Jue began to inspect his underground base.
The pits in the 105 vegetable plots have been leveled, but the large quantities of Shanghai green seeds purchased online have not yet arrived, so they can only be left vacant for the time being.
Relying on a leap of faith, Chen Jue jumped along the vertical shaft into a pool that had been dug 1 grids underground in advance.
Normal climbing up and down is too time-consuming. Even with the movement speed of more than 5 blocks per second in the 'Steve' state, it will take 1 minutes to climb 33 meters underground.
So Chen Jue asked a few iron golems to dig a pool underground. At first, he let them try jumping into a shorter pool, and then expanded it all the way to a pool that was ten thousand meters high.
Seeing that no matter how he jumped, he did not trigger the server prompt of [Death from Falling from a Height], Chen Jue felt confident and boldly followed suit and jumped several times from shallow to deep.
After trying this leap of faith a few more times, even my fear of heights and weak legs were cured!
After going underground to check the construction progress of the subway tunnel, he found that it was only a dozen kilometers away from Wencheng Pingtou Village. Chen Jue's mind began to become active.
You know, after you have paid off your debts.
For a time, his idea of starting a business and making money was somewhat shaken, and he wanted to learn from those UP hosts in the bad area and just lie down and take a break.
After all, if an ordinary person suddenly becomes rich overnight after being suffocated by debt for a long time, he will definitely go out and relax for a while.
Either you eat and drink lavishly, take a bath and get a massage, or you buy a nice car and go out for a ride and travel with some pretty girls or good friends.
This is the release of desire under heavy pressure, which is human nature.
But after hearing Huang Ruoming's words "Do what you like", Chen Jue seemed to have attained enlightenment like Long Chang!
He realized that he could use the MC system to do things that he had never dared to think about in his childhood.
For example: build a ladder to the sky and climb up to outer space to see the scenery of the earth.
Land on the moon, plant crops and build bases on the moon! Let all Chinese people eat green, healthy, safe and free food.
You can even use MC blocks to build yourself a spaceship to rush out of the solar system, head towards the sea of stars, and conquer the entire universe.
In short, the MC system has infinite possibilities and can help him realize those huge fantasies that he never dared to think about as a child.
Of course, as Chen Shang said, the existence of MC is destined to be incompatible with the three views of the real world.
He wanted to eliminate this "barrier" and prevent the world from calling for the death of this cheating freak and taking him for dissection research at every turn.
Chen Jue still needs to accumulate a certain amount of strength, or earn more and more reasonable money, to create layer upon layer of golden personality for himself in the real world.
Just like Elon Musk in the United States, he was originally a young wealthy man who made his business by selling software. Even the Tesla car brand was not founded by him.
However, after the media hype and Musk's successive investments in rocket building and electric cars, people all over the world mistakenly believed that he was a technology open source tycoon similar to Iron Man in Marvel.
I think it would be extremely reasonable for this person to achieve a moon landing or a Mars landing one day.
Chen Jue also planned to create a similar persona for himself as a technology open source tycoon, using the image of "technology" to give MC's creations a reasonable coat.
Of course, to achieve this in the real world, money is essential.
“As long as we resolve the contradiction in worldview and achieve the character of a technological giant, then moving the entire underground base to the ground in the future, and even creating MC wonders on the surface of the earth won’t be a problem!” Chen Jue’s mind was full of ideas.
After landing, he lost interest in simply making money to improve his material life, just like the ancient peasants who would imagine whether the emperor would also use a golden hoe to plow the land.
He intends to get rid of vulgar interests, achieve higher ideals and values in life, and do what he wants to do.
……
With higher aspirations in mind, Chen Jue read through the old books given to him by his grandfather overnight, which made his faith more firm and gave him a clear direction for what he should do next.
After surveying the progress of the underground tunnel with his lackey Chen Shang, he climbed up to Pit No. 1, took a comfortable bath, and went to bed.
It was not until the next morning when Chen Jue woke up at noon that he crawled out of the underground base in high spirits.
I took a look at the messages I received on my phone, including several voice messages sent by Wu Laosan in the early morning, which also included real-time photos of the wholesale and retail prices of Shanghai greens in the vegetable basket.
After a day of price fluctuations, the wholesale price of Shanghai green has dropped from 7.58 yuan/catty to 3.2 yuan/catty.
Even the retail price has dropped from the peak of 10 yuan per catty to the normal 5 yuan per catty.
"Brother Chen, luckily you finished serving the dishes yesterday."
"The price changes so quickly that people from other places, especially those in Shandong, come to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to trade their products." Wu Laosan laughed on WeChat.
Judging from his tone, it seems that he made a lot of money yesterday.
Of course, this short-term, small-scale price fluctuation, although it will not last long, will also affect netizens in big cities to a certain extent.
When Chen Jue went out for breakfast, he was sitting and checking the trending searches on Douyin, and saw that netizens in Hangzhou and Shanghai were complaining about the sharp rise in the price of small green vegetables in supermarkets. They all shouted: "If the salary doesn't increase, we can't even afford vegetables! (Breaking down and crying)"
By the way, he also attached yesterday’s supermarket shopping receipt, which made netizens in the comment section go crazy.
"Fuck! Is this the price in a first-tier city? Green vegetables sold for 10 yuan per pound? (Staring)"
“Excuse me, is it too late for me to go back and farm now (covering my face)”
"It's too late. The price has been cut in half this morning (laughing and crying)"
Seeing this, Chen Jue smiled with a look of deep gratitude: "These days, there are quite a few people who want to go back to the countryside to farm!"
……
After breakfast, Chen Jue brought his lackey Chen Shang to the East Ring Road in Wenzhou.
This is a famous jewelry street in Vancouver, selling everything from precious jade jewelry to affordable gold and silver jewelry.
The purpose of coming here is to see if there is a real substitute that can satisfy MC [Emerald].
After all, although Chen Shang, this lackey, looks despicable, the rare MC items sold in his own trading system are indeed very attractive.
Putting aside other things, just based on the [Bedrock] displayed on the trading column, Chen Jue wanted to exchange for a few sets for self-defense.
If I could make a modified version of the [Bedrock Suit] in the adventure MOD Titan creature and wear it, I would be able to withstand a nuclear bomb stuck on my face or jump into the magma at the center of the earth to take a bath.
"Handsome guy, is there anything you want to see?" When the female teller at Xinlong Jewelry Store saw Chen Jue bringing people in, she greeted them enthusiastically.
Chen Jue said, "I want to order a necklace, but I'm short of a main stone. Come in and take a look at your colored gemstones, preferably green."
Because just now while shopping, he found that the Xinlong Jewelry Store was the largest, looked the most powerful, and had the signboard of "Colored Gems".
Other small gold shops and jewelry stores mostly sell diamond rings, gold and silver jewelry, and colored gems are rare.
"Are you going to buy emeralds?"
"It just so happens that we have a new batch of emeralds! Some are artificially cultivated in the laboratory, and some are natural gems produced in Colombia and Zambia." When the female teller heard this, she immediately and enthusiastically led Chen Jue and the other person to the counter inside.
I saw her wearing gloves and skillfully taking out two boxes of emeralds from the display cabinet.
The box on the left is natural, priced at 5000 yuan per carat. Although the emeralds inside look very delicately cut, they have many bubbles and cracks when viewed under a magnifying glass.
The box of artificially cultivated ones on the right appear much more refined, just like they were cut from beer bottles, transparent and shiny, and the price is not expensive, only 300 yuan per carat.
"What do you think?" Chen Jue turned around and asked the lackey behind him.
Chen Shang showed some disdain on his face when he saw this, and whispered in his ear: "Boss! It doesn't look good!"
"Handsome boy, this is the best emerald we have."
"If you still can't choose among these, you can take a look at the Sri Lankan sapphires here! Sapphires are also very beautiful when made into necklaces." Seeing this, the female teller thought that Chen Jue had brought someone who knew the business, so she continued to show off her sales pitch.
After all, it is summer, and all industries are experiencing the off-season.
It's rare to have a customer come to visit, so I have to try my best to make an order.
After hearing the lackey's suggestion, Chen Jue sighed inwardly, knowing that the Emerald in the real world probably could not replace the [Emerald] in MC.
I had no choice but to pretend to look at the other gems, and finally tried to get up and leave, using the excuse that my elders were not satisfied.
But just as he turned to leave, Chen Shang, who had just been looking around in Xinlong Jewelry Store and studying the real-world jewelry market, suddenly froze. As if attracted by a magnet, he walked slowly to an exquisite display case surrounded by layers of jewelry in the middle of the jewelry store, pointed at a pendant inside and said, "Boss! This! This is good!"
When Chen Jue heard that there was a chance, he immediately leaned over to take a look, and an imperial green jadeite pendant with a price tag of 1888 million came into his sight.
