268: Iron spear in hand

"Little Rich Woman is mighty!"

"Little Rich Woman is domineering!"

"Si Yu sis v587!" Li Lin also chimed in.

"Uncle, you don't need to say anything. I have two villas and five or six buildings under my name. I don't need to save money!" Yao Siyu said with a smile, cutting off what the uncle was about to say.

"So rich it's inhumane!" Li Ke exclaimed.

"I told you a long time ago, Si Yu is a little rich woman." Xiao Bai put his hand on Li Ke's shoulder and whispered, "Hurry up and make a move; you're too slow."

The uncle was also stunned for a moment, and by the time he wanted to retrieve his money, he found that the chubby boss had already swiftly put it into his pocket.

"This guest is truly decisive, so it's a deal." The chubby boss happily pushed both the gun and the long case to the opposite side.

"This is so cool!" Xu Yilu said, his eyes full of stars.

"Of course, Uncle, just accept it. Si Yu really has money. I'm her cousin, and I can vouch for it." Xiao Bai said with a smile.

"Just accept it, Uncle. With your strength as a High-level Military General, wherever you go, people will treat you as an honored guest. If we hadn't held you back, you would have earned much, much more than this!" Yao Siyu said with a smile.

"Then, Xiao Lin, you must give the money to your parents; you can't spend it recklessly yourself." Seeing this, the uncle no longer hesitated and turned to Li Lin. He had seen Li Lin participate in labor before, so his family must not be well-off. He worried that the young man, having suddenly acquired such a windfall, might lose control and squander it all.

"Don't worry, Uncle." Li Lin nodded.

"Also, remember not to gamble! Ten bets, nine losses; these days, it's all rigged, and online gambling is even more harmful!" The uncle said tirelessly.

"Uncle, don't worry. I'm a good young man of the new era and never touch that stuff.

You don't have to worry about me, Uncle. A while ago, I resold 'fat house happy water.' I sold one can to a player for 200 copper coins. In that half-month, I sold over two thousand cans in total, earning nearly six hundred taels of silver. I've already exchanged it for 200,000 dragon coins and given it to my mom." Li Lin said with a proud smile.

"200,000?" The uncle was a bit surprised. Is money so easy to earn here?

"He spent 200 copper coins to buy one can of your 'fat house happy water'?" The uncle asked in surprise.

"Yes." Li Lin nodded.

"At the current exchange rate of 1 tael of silver for 600 dragon coins, 200 copper coins is 120 dragon coins? In reality, it's only 3 dragon coins a can. Is he a sucker or something?" The uncle was a bit confused and found it hard to believe.

"That's right, maybe he's rich and just wants to drink it in the game. Although I also think he's a sucker, an even bigger sucker has appeared. He's buying cans for 250 copper coins, so I'm not trading with that previous person anymore." Li Lin said with a smile.

"250 copper coins? He's probably a fool." The uncle muttered to himself, "If that were my son, I'd beat him to death!"

"Haha, Uncle, I don't think you could bear to hit him. Didn't you always say your son is handsome? Introduce him to me." Yao Siyu said, shaking the uncle's arm.

"Haha, yes, he's quite handsome. You can tell just by looking at me, right?" The uncle said with a smile.

"That's true." Yao Siyu smiled, then asked, "So, Uncle, when will you introduce him to me?"

The uncle thought for a moment and said, "My son also plays games, but I forgot to add him as a friend last time, and I don't know where he is now."

"That's a real shame, otherwise we could have roamed the martial world together." Li Ke secretly glanced at Yao Siyu, then sighed with a feigned look of regret, but his heart was as vibrant as blooming fireworks.

The uncle looked at Yao Siyu, thinking she would be a good match for his son. She had looks, a kind nature, and even money!

He felt a pang of desire for his son, but then he thought, how could a young man live off a woman so early in life?

Wouldn't that disgrace his Old Lin family's reputation?

He absolutely couldn't let his son follow in his footsteps!

"I guess he's probably doing quite well now; we don't need to worry about him. Let's go, let's go." The uncle said with a smile. His son used to sit for long hours at work, so it would be good for him to work for the Government and exercise. Living off a woman wasn't that easy, so he decided against it.

The uncle took the long spear and the 'receipt-Li Ke' item, then bid farewell to the chubby boss and walked out.

"Ge ge ge!" Xu Yilu wasn't paying attention, and the Ge Ge Chicken hopped down, laying an egg without warning.

Xu Yilu quickly picked up the egg, glanced at it, and breathed a sigh of relief:

"Luckily, it's a golden egg! We can eat eggs again tomorrow!"

"Yay!" Everyone laughed.

His Ge Ge Chicken was a bit peculiar. If left unattended, it would lay a white egg after a few steps, which could only fill one's stomach but had no other effects.

However, if he held it in his arms all day, the Ge Ge Chicken would hold it in and then lay a unique 'golden egg'!

Eating the golden egg could increase strength and improve one's cultivation realm. Although the effect wasn't significant, it was indeed useful! This was his most important reliance!

"Uncle, these five golden eggs we've saved up are all for you to eat, to celebrate your becoming a High-level Military General!" Xiao Bai suggested.

Li Ke was only an Initial-stage Martial General, and he himself was a half-step Martial General. The others were just High-level Soldiers. It could be said that the uncle was their biggest reliance for freely roaming the martial world now!

"No need, no need. I have the talent of 'Heavenly Strength,' so I don't need to eat this. It's you guys who need to supplement yourselves." The uncle said with a smile, waving his hand in refusal.

"By the way, Uncle, the forums said that the first ten thousand players to enter the game were all rewarded with special talents. Is that true?" Yao Siyu asked.

"I'm not too sure, but I was the 5418th, and I do have a talent." The uncle thought for a moment and said, then asked, "How come none of you have one?"

Everyone looked dejected upon hearing this.

"I only entered the game half a month after it launched, and by then, there were already over two hundred million people." Yao Siyu said.

"At that time, I was watching the Spring Festival Gala countdown. By the time I came to my senses, there were already over two hundred thousand people. I only got a lucky small treasure chest." Xu Yilu said weakly.

"I was the three hundred and ten-something millionth, and I only got over a hundred copper coins, not even a lucky small treasure chest." Li Lin said.

"What about you two?" The uncle asked curiously.

"I was the 10086th." Xiao Bai sighed, also only getting a lucky small treasure chest. If he had known the difference would be so great, he would have gotten a better internet cable!

"That's such a shame, only 86 people short." The uncle said with some regret, then looked at Li Ke, wanting to know what happened with him.

Li Ke said weakly, "I was the 10010th."
