99: Chapter 99 USB drive acquired

Chen Sheng remained unmoved. He had already envisioned this scene before arriving.

A curve appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said loudly again: "What? Didn't you call for donations online earlier? Are you not accepting them now?"

"No! We are accepting them," the Staff Member replied nervously, standing up quickly.

He couldn't help but be nervous.

Over the past two years, due to various exposures, the association itself had become very sensitive. Not long ago, it was exposed online that a certain branch had received 500,000 in donations, but only less than 10,000 went to charity, which pushed the association to the forefront of public criticism.

He heard that after the incident, the superiors of that branch were all held accountable. He didn't want to repeat the mistakes of that branch because of his attitude.

"As long as you're accepting them!" Chen Sheng hoisted the woven bag onto the desk. "A total of 34 catties of clothing donated. Put the donor down as Lei Feng."

Chen Sheng patted the non-existent dust off his hands. As he turned to leave, he smiled and added to the Staff Member who was stunned by his mention of Lei Feng: "No need to thank me, this is what I should do."

Staff Member: "..."

Staring blankly at Chen Sheng as he turned and walked away dashingly, leaving the association in the blink of an eye, the Staff Member finally managed to squeeze out a sentence to his colleague: "Is this guy crazy?"

"Isn't he! What kind of person is this?"

"Donating clothes, and old ones at that. Even a dog wouldn't want this stuff."

"Clearly a country bumpkin, a complete idiot."

Soon, the entire office turned into a vegetable market, with everyone discussing... no, criticizing, complaining about, and even cursing Chen Sheng and his behavior just now.

Chen Sheng's behavior just now was undoubtedly kicking down the door, slapping them in the face, dancing on their grave...

Was this even a donation?

This was a provocation, plain and simple.

Thinking back to their past days, who didn't bow and scrape to them? Although their reputation was bad now, they hadn't fallen so low as to be bullied by a dog, right?

The more they discussed, the angrier they became; they were about to explode with rage.

However, none of this had anything to do with Chen Sheng. Anyway, he was in a great mood right now.

In fact, he was already humming a song.

Life is just a play / Why care so much about grievances / Fame and fortune / What are they / You bring nothing into this life and take nothing out / The world is unpredictable, joys and sorrows of the human world / No fate in this life, let's meet again in the next / ... / I walk the wide roads dashingly / I smile proudly / And smile proudly again / Looking at the red dust with a smile, people don't grow old / Treating wine as a pure mirror / ...

(PS: Song [Proud Smile], Lyrics and Composition: Xiao Chong)

Of course, Chen Sheng going to the Red Cross to donate old clothes just now wasn't because he had nothing better to do... No, maybe it could be said he did have nothing better to do.

Earlier at the Green Source Second-hand Clothing Store, that employee, looking at the clothes he was wearing, naturally offered to provide an invoice. With that practiced manner, he probably did this sort of thing often.

And a charity organization that could do this...

Thinking of the donations he had made in the past, and then thinking about the things reported online, Chen Sheng went straight to the Red Cross branch in a fit of anger.

That's right! He wasn't pretending anymore, he was laying his cards on the table. This trip was just to disgust them, even if that pile of old clothes cost him 6,600.

As the saying goes, money can't buy my happiness.

After grabbing a casual dinner, he returned home happily. After greeting An Xiaonuan, Chen Sheng carried the USB drive and walked straight into the study.

He turned on the computer and first inserted the USB drive into the port to ensure it could be read.

Whether it's a USB drive or a hard drive, long-term storage can lead to data not being readable.

If that happened, he would have to find a professional to deal with it.

Fortunately, although the old thing's style wasn't great, its quality was absolutely flawless, just like the electric fans and radios of yesteryear. Even if it looked rusty on the outside now, once plugged in, it didn't affect its use at all.

Confirming the USB drive could be read, Chen Sheng ejected it, opened a web browser, and quickly typed a line in the search box: "How to trade Bitcoin."

As someone who hadn't even traded stocks before getting the intelligence system, let alone Bitcoin.

So, before trading, he needed to learn systematically.

After some study, Chen Sheng, having a rough idea of what to do, followed an online tutorial to download a browser, entered the foreign internet, then re-inserted the USB drive, found the key inside, entered it, and confirmed there were indeed two Bitcoins inside. Only then did he open the digital currency trading platform and list the two Bitcoins.

Perhaps because it was daytime on the other side of the ocean, or perhaps because the market value of Bitcoin had been rising during this period, less than three minutes after listing it, he received a notification that the transaction was successful.

Next was how to transfer the money back to the country.

Chen Sheng followed the method given by a mysterious big shot on a forum, transferred all the funds obtained from the exchange to his international financial account, and then transferred them to his domestic bank account through the international financial account.

The bewildered Chen Sheng didn't know if his operations were correct, but the next morning, his phone received a deposit notification.

It just so happened that he had just hung up the phone with the owner of "A Small Shop" not long before.

The shop owner indicated on the phone that after a day of careful consideration, he finally agreed to transfer "A Small Shop" to Chen Sheng for 100,000, and they made an appointment to discuss the details of the transfer at "A Small Shop" in the afternoon.

Originally, he had thought about asking Old Yu and the others for a temporary loan, but it seemed international transfers were quite fast.

However, that wasn't the point now.

The point was to rush to Wangjianglou Park.

Does that name sound familiar?

This matter has to start from the morning.

After An Xiaonuan left for the company as usual in the morning, Chen Sheng opened the system panel.

host: Chen Sheng

Level: Level 1

Upgrade Experience: 58/100

Unread Intelligence: 1

Although there was only one unread piece of intelligence today, he still rubbed his hands until they were hot before clicking on it.

"Intelligence 1: Today, at a position about 300 meters east of the west gate entrance of Wangjianglou Park, a naughty kitten is trapped in a trash can. This kitten, tired of being petted by its owner, ran away when they weren't looking and accidentally entered the trash can while chasing a mouse.

The cat's owner has searched for the kitten to no avail and has now issued a reward of 3,000 to find it. Contact information for the owner: 136xxxxxxxx."

"Note 1: This intelligence is valid until July 28th at 11:13. After 11:13, this intelligence will automatically become void."

After reading this intelligence, Chen Sheng's thoughts instantly returned to that useless cat he had encountered shortly after binding with the system, and that noblewoman who drove a flashy red off-road vehicle with bodyguards.

Familiar phone number, familiar reward amount, Chen Sheng thought in astonishment: "Wtf! Could it be that useless cat again?"

"Forget it, no use thinking about it. I'll know if I go." Chen Sheng shook his head, closed the system panel, and then floored the gas pedal, driving his car straight to Wangjianglou Park.

Arriving at the trash can marked in the intelligence, he saw that both unfamiliar and familiar useless cat.

The useless cat was truly useless.

The trash can must have been cleaned by a diligent cleaner early in the morning, as it was not only empty but didn't even have a noticeable strange smell when he got close.

The trash can wasn't deep, less than a meter, and the walls weren't slippery, yet it had managed to trap a cat inside.

Chen Sheng scooped the useless cat into his hands, and while petting it, he couldn't help but sigh: "You say you're this useless, why did you even run away from home!"

Other cats chase chickens and dogs outside, but with this useless cat, Chen Sheng felt it would starve to death.

The key was that this useless cat lacked self-awareness. Hearing Chen Sheng talk about it, it unconvincingly retorted: "Meow~ meow~~"

Chen Sheng carried the useless cat while walking towards the west gate and took out his phone to call the useless cat's owner.

"Hello! Nice to meet you, I've found your cat again at Wangjianglou Park." It must be said that the word "again" was used with quite a bit of soul.

Waiting at the west gate for less than twenty minutes, that familiar flashy red Range Rover braked in front of Chen Sheng. As the driver's door opened, it wasn't the burly bodyguard who came out this time, but the elegant lady herself.

Perhaps because of the previous experience, the noblewoman felt less distant when facing Chen Sheng this time. After the two exchanged greetings, it was a swap of money for the cat. The noblewoman still transferred 5,000 yuan to Chen Sheng. However, after the transfer was completed, the noblewoman took a business card from the car and handed it to Chen Sheng, "You can call this number if you need anything."

Chen Sheng subconsciously glanced at it. The business card was very simple, with a name, Lu Xiaorong, and a phone number.

However, according to normal logic, the simpler the business card, the more it proved the person was not simple. Chen Sheng took the business card with both hands and said solemnly: "Thank you!"
