2: The pie drawn by the system is delicious
After a long time, the system stopped its one-sided output, and Li Youqian was so 'cared for' by the system that he dared not utter a sound.
"So... what exactly are your functions, System?"
After a moment of silence, Li Youqian asked again in a weak voice.
Li Youqian endured being scolded by the system, but if it was useless, then he wouldn't be polite.
Have you ever heard of Zuan for ten years, with both parents still alive?
"This system has many functions, but due to excessive consumption, it can currently only provide some basic functions."
"To restore all my functions, I need a continuous supply of emotional value."
"So, you damn host, I'm giving you three options now; you choose what you want to do in the future."
Li Youqian's veins bulged from being rebutted by the system, but he still asked "amiably":
"...Please tell me."
If he wasn't satisfied with what this dog system said next, then he wouldn't be to blame.
"First, I, your great master, will make you a superstar, a peerless celebrity admired by all."
"Second, I will make you a great literary figure with unparalleled literary talent, whose name will live on for centuries."
"Third, I will make you a wealthy internet magnate, an emotionless vote-swiping machine."
Li Youqian fell into deep thought as he looked at these three options.
He immediately dismissed the first option of becoming a star; he had no artistic talent since childhood, and even with the system's help, he was unwilling.
How tiring is it to be a star? Constantly rushing to engagements, and personal privacy is extremely poor; you have to wear a mask and a hat when going out, like a spy.
This is not good, this is not good.
As for the second option, a great literary figure, emmmm...
If he had been diligent in his studies back then, would he still be working as a security guard at Country Garden now?
PASS, PASS, must PASS!
Who in their right mind still studies after entering society?
As for the last one, a wealthy internet magnate, this is very good!
You don't have to do anything every day, just tip beauties, and money comes easily, saving effort and earning quickly.
"Brother System, I choose three! I want to become a wealthy internet magnate."
The system was silent for a few seconds, evidently surprised by his choice.
Don't people on this planet value reputation so much? Don't they all hope their names will live on for generations after they die?
"Alright, since you've made your choice, I hope you won't regret it."
Regret? Absolutely no regret! Never in this life will I regret it!
"Congratulations, Host, on activating the wealthy internet magnate module. The system is currently raising funds..."
Why does it need to raise funds? In other novels, isn't the money always ready?
Hmm? Why is the bank sending me a text message?
WC! My savings are gone!!!
That was a huge sum Li Youqian had saved through frugality and his demobilization pay, totaling 154,875.62 yuan, and now it was all gone in an instant.
Could it be that bastard system who did it?
I haven't heard of a new scam method emerging from Myanmar!
"You idiot host, why are you so anxious? I have to use your money to trade stocks and futures!"
"If I don't trade stocks, where would I get the money for you to spend? Conjure it out of thin air? Do you think I'm the Creator!"
"Just wait, you'll have money tomorrow. Look at your stingy appearance, how can you become a generation's wealthy magnate?"
Okay, Mr. Li tearfully accepted this promise.
After Li Youqian got the system, he instantly gained confidence, directly kicked open the property manager's office door, and immediately announced his resignation. Let whoever wants to endure this humiliation endure it!
Because all his savings were taken by the system for investment, Li Youqian had no money in his pocket, so he only ate a bowl of instant noodles he had bought previously for dinner.
"No pain, no gain. Eating instant noodles today means eating abalone tomorrow!"
According to the normal novel rhythm, this is indeed the case: tomorrow, Li Youqian would begin to live in extreme luxury, living in villas and driving luxury cars. Unfortunately, he encountered a certain black-hearted author~
Having just obtained the system, Li Youqian tossed and turned in bed, completely sleepless. He finally managed to endure until dawn the next day, and then Li Youqian eagerly asked the system:
"Brother System, how are the funds coming along?"
That was all his life savings! If the system messed it up, his mentality would completely collapse.
"Don't worry, with your great Brother System taking action, there's no chance of an accident."
"For this system, the stock market and futures are easier than picking up money."
"Although I didn't earn much last night, it's enough for you to spend."
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, your small amount of savings has already been converted into tipping funds."
Hearing the first few sentences, Li Youqian shouted, "Brother System is awesome!" Hearing the last sentence, Li Youqian said:
"You f***ing b*stard."
"I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious yet, because you'll be even more anxious."
The system also admitted it was in the wrong and, for once, didn't retort him.
"According to the settings, your current daily spending limit is only one million."
One million? One million is still a lot; he couldn't earn that much in a lifetime.
"Then what's my cashback commission?"
In novels, wealthy internet magnate systems generally offer cashback, some 30%, some 50%, and even 100%.
"Commission? Do you think you're selling a house??"
"There's no commission."
Li Youqian was furious. If there's no cashback, what use are you to me?
Spending lavishly online, but almost unable to afford instant noodles in reality.
Most importantly, the damn system swindled all his savings!
"Before I bound to you, you couldn't do anything but guard the door, and you never had any financial records."
"You, a worthless piece of trash, how could you suddenly become very rich overnight?"
"Do you think the economic investigation department is just sitting around doing nothing?"
"Even this system uses virtual IP + overseas accounts + trust institutions for stock investments."
Although what you said makes a lot of sense, it's unreasonable that I got a system but am still living so miserably!
"When this system upgrades, I will give you a large number of rewards."
"The rewards will come from trust institutions or foreign financial groups, as well as the black-hearted profiteers in your country."
"These include money, cars, houses, luxury watches, etc."
"Once this system recovers a certain amount of energy, I can also arrange a background identity for you."
Hearing that there would be upgrade rewards in the future, Li Youqian still tearfully accepted this promise.
"System, can you even arrange identity backgrounds?"
"Because you're an orphan, these things are quite easy to arrange. I just need to match your genes."
Since you're so awesome, why do you still need to use my money for investments?
"Didn't this system say 'in the future, in the future'? Do you understand what 'in the future' means?"
"If you don't collect emotional value for me, how can I recover my abilities?"
"If I don't recover my abilities, how can I get you those rewards?"
"So, hurry up and collect energy for me, otherwise you'll starve to death."
Li Youqian still asked unwillingly:
"Brother System, is there really no other way?"
"Even if you just give me ten thousand yuan, it would be fine!"
Li Youqian ultimately only received the system's emotionless reply:
"Dream on."
