After saying that, he rode away on his electric scooter, leaving the market and disappearing into the depths of the dark alley.
"..."
Qi Lin stood still, looking at the light purple banknote in his hand.
The banknote features an aerial view of a magnificent city in the center, Atlanta, a major city in the Federation, with two numbers printed in the upper left corner.
【30】
Ok?
wrong.
Qi Lin rubbed the folded banknote and found that it felt strange. He then unfolded it and found that there was a second 30-yuan banknote inside.
Boss Gao said this morning that the daily wage is 30 yuan.
But what they just gave him was two 30-yuan bills, which is... 60 yuan!
"Whether it's Earth or the Blue Planet, there are bad people and good people everywhere."
Qi Lin smiled, separated the two banknotes, put one in his pocket, and stuffed the other into the sole of his shoe.
Then, he embarked on his journey home.
There's a convenience store next to the rental apartment. I'll go there later to buy a pack of instant noodles to tide me over. Buying the bagged kind and cooking it at home is much cheaper than the boxed kind.
……
……
A few minutes later.
The streetlights flickered, making the alleyway appear somewhat dim.
Qi Lin walked alone on the night road, his shadow stretched very long.
"boom!"
Suddenly, as he rounded a bend, a tall figure darted out from in front of him, grabbed him by the neck with one hand, lifted him up, and slammed him heavily against the alley wall.
"Uh……"
Qi Lin's face flushed red, his feet dangling in the air. He instinctively grabbed the other person's hand, kicking and struggling.
When he saw who was on the other side, his heart sank.
This was a blond, blue-eyed white young man, at least 1.9 meters tall, wearing jeans and a white tank top, with very muscular arms.
"So, where are we going to play later?"
"That depends on how much money we can make today."
"Ha ha!"
From the nearby intersection, bursts of laughter and conversation could be heard from men and women chatting.
Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen figures appeared in Qi Lin's line of sight. There were men and women, white people and black people. The only Asian face was a young girl in a white dress. Regardless of gender, most of them had tattoos.
The Blue Star Federation has no national divisions; the three major races live together, and the language and script are a unified federal language.
Chapter 3: Experience Boost, Level Up and Stat Allocation!
"boom!"
At this moment, the white youth who was choking Qi Lin suddenly let go, causing him to fall to the ground.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Qi Lin leaned against the wall, clutching his neck and coughing violently.
Hey! Aqi!
The young white man squatted down, gently patted Qi Lin's face, and then grinned: "I heard you went to kill fish again? That won't do. The wages at that Gao's place are too low. We brothers are afraid we won't have enough to live on."
The dozen or so people nearby burst into laughter upon hearing this.
"..."
Qi Lin paused for a moment, then lowered his head and pulled a light purple 30-yuan note from his pocket: "Thomas, this is all I have. Boss Gao only gave me this today..."
"Tsk!"
Before he could finish speaking, the white youth Thomas snatched the banknotes and couldn't help but shake his head: "Although I knew it wouldn't be much, this is still too little."
He stuffed the money into his pocket, then stood up, kicked Qi Lin's foot, looked down at him, and said coldly, "Remember! Don't go there to kill fish next time. Go back to the convenience store on Qinghua Road. They pay more there. Otherwise, you know how hard my fists are."
"Alright, let's go find our next old friend!"
Thomas put his hands in his pockets, turned around and left with the group of thugs, disappearing into the darkness while chatting and laughing.
Qi Lin sat on the ground, coldly watching the man's receding figure.
Renn Thomas, a Fighting Knight, at the peak of Rank Zero.
The original owner of this body was brought to her breaking point by this guy last night.
Similar robberies have happened countless times before.
This guy is two years older than him, but because he repeated a grade before, he is now his classmate. All along, this guy has been the one who bullied the original owner the most. If the other thugs are just accomplices, then this Thomas is the culprit!
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Qi Lin coughed twice, slowly got up from the ground, and continued walking towards the rented house.
Fortunately, Mr. Gao was kind and gave him two 30-yuan notes today.
Fortunately, he had anticipated this and hid another 30 yuan note in the sole of his shoe beforehand, otherwise he would have gone hungry again tonight.
……
……
Ten minutes later.
Qi Lin went to a convenience store near his rented apartment to buy a bag of instant noodles.
"Clang clang clang! Clang clang clang!"
Suddenly, his cell phone vibrated slightly in his pocket and rang.
Qi Lin stood at the entrance of the convenience store, curiously taking out his phone to look at it.
[Fish stall owner Mr. Gao]
Boss Gao?
Oh, the original owner of this body exchanged contact information with Boss Gao before, because Boss Gao occasionally had to work overtime at night... Wait! Overtime? More experience points to gain?!
"Hey?"
Qi Lin quickly answered the phone.
"Hey kid, got a free time? Same as always, go to the fish farm and kill some fish."
"Is it still an otherworldly fish?"
"Nonsense, is this your first day doing this job with me? The boneless fish I sell are all supplied by that fish farm in the north of the city. Just now, Mr. Zhou from that fish farm called me and said he has an urgent large order that needs to be completed within 3 hours. We are only responsible for killing and slicing, and someone else will do the packaging and boxing. Are you free? If you are, come with me. It'll cost you 100 yuan!"
"Of course I'm free!"
"Then come to the fish stall and wait for me. I'll drive over to pick you up... By the way, have you eaten yet? If not, don't eat now, hurry up and come over!"
"Understood! I'll be right there!"
……
……
Twenty minutes later.
The unassuming Boss Gao drove a luxury car and took Qi Lin to a fish farm in the north of the city. He kept making phone calls along the way and eventually summoned six fish butchers to begin an urgent fish butchering order.
This is different from when I was at the fish stall.
Fish stalls only kill fish after customers come to buy them. The number of fish they can kill in a day actually depends on how many customers come.
Now, you don't even have to wait half a second. Kill one, slice it, keep killing, slice it again, and keep killing!
Qi Lin, Boss Gao, and others were only responsible for frantically killing and slicing the fish, then leaving the fish meat aside for other workers to pack and box.
In this mode, their fish-killing efficiency is amazing. In addition, boneless fish are very easy to handle, so Qi Lin killed more than 200 fish in just 3 hours!
His experience points were skyrocketing!
After finally wrapping up...
Experience points: 312/100
You are now ready to upgrade.
"Hey kid, wanna grab some late-night snacks? My treat!"
"Thank you, Mr. Gao, but I really have some things to take care of at home and need to go back immediately."
"Okay then, I'll drive you there."
"Thank you!"
Boss Gao drove Qi Lin away from the fish farm and back to the vicinity of the rented house.
"Here, your wages."
Boss Gao parked the car on the side of the road and then took out a large gold banknote from his pocket and gave it to Qi Lin.
The banknote still features an aerial view of the city at the very center, the federal capital, the world's largest and most prosperous city, with three gold-stamped numbers in the upper left corner.
【100】
This is a 100-yuan bill!
"Thank you, Boss Gao!"
Qi Lin pocketed the money, got out of the car, and left.
After returning to his rented room, he closed the door, sat on the bed, and activated the system panel.
