Chapter 169: Life Would Get Better (Part 4)

The shop owner’s phone was still logged into the game and a guy’s voice sounded out, “What are you doing? Kill the monsters!”

And over here, Lu Shu had emptied his bag of valuables while the shop owner looked in shock. It was his first time seeing someone sell so much stuff… even if someone came to sell stuff, it had never been so much at one go!

The shop owner didn’t care about the game anymore and stood up. He held that omega watch and inspected it thoroughly, those in his line of business had a good eye or else they would be broke if they mistook imitation goods for genuine ones.

Omega watches had a very specific trait which could not be imitated by fake watches. Their manufacture numbers were carved in a small position at the back of the watch and they were small and intricate. No imitation could possibly have the technology to try and imitate these minute manufacture numbers.

And there were the hands of the watch. The hands of an omega watch were extremely bright yet steady. The hands were extremely intricate, especially the second hand. The colors on the luminous markers and the face were also the same. All these could not be imitated so precisely by a fake watch.

The shop owner took a few watches consecutively. One of them was a fake while the rest were the real deal.

As for the gold chains, these old timers could tell their authenticity approximately just by feeling for their weight.

Normal people were easily tricked from feeling for the weight. This was indeed a good way to tell between a real product and a fake one but some normal people did not know that gold chains had different designs and styles and it was easy to make mistakes in judgment. Some chains looked thick and heavy when they actually had very little gold content, and there was such a mistake because of the design alone.

The shop owner raised his head, “Bro, could you tell me where you got all these from? Suddenly showing me so many goods, I’m actually a little afraid of taking them in…”

It was… really too damn much! Those who sold illegal goods probably wouldn’t bring as much as you!

Lu Shu took out his daoyuan student card calmly, “Do you know of the remain in Mt Beimang?”

Currently, the news on the remain on the golden foundation’s website was a huge commotion. Even if the heavenly network was stringent on information regulation, relevant information still leaked to the public.

In a short time, some people were exposed to the words such as ‘skeleton’ and ‘ghosts’. These were words they rarely came into contact with in the past. Most people did not meet such an incident and could not visualize a live skeleton running and chasing after people.

The daoyuan student card was exquisite and well-crafted. It was so unique that the security guards of the school did not have to look closely and they could distinguish an authentic one from one look. As the shop owner looked at this identification card and heard Lu Shu’s words, he took a deep breath, “Those skeletons carried gold chains and watches with them?!”

Lu Shu found it hilarious. Why did he think this way? Lu Shu explained, “I traded in there. These were given to me by other daoyuan students. Relax, no one will care where they came from, and if they do, just refer them to me based on this identification card.”

By now, being a daoyuan student meant popularity and it was commanding. Just like… buying a train ticket and no one would dare to cut their queue. Being daoyuan students came with benefits.

Occasionally, there would be cases of squabbles between daoyuan students and normal people. Even if the fault lied with the daoyuan student, the case wouldn’t have a proper end as everything with regards to daoyuan students were handled by the heavenly network. And how the heavenly network handled the situation had nothing to do with the civilians.

All these small details slowly shaped the position and authority of daoyuan students today.

It was like the position of university graduates in the 1970s. At that time, graduates would be part of large organizations and wherever they went for work, people will be extra polite to them as they might be their future leaders.

Of course, this was less common and it was just a physical manifestation of this position of power.

The shop owner didn’t have much hesitation too. He was in the pawn business previously as well and he didn’t manage to earn much then so he had to resort to this black market.

Everything would be fine as long as he was sure that these items were authentic.

Watches such as omegas with serial numbers were not so easy to handle, but that didn’t mean they couldn’t be handled. Once they were sold, who would be able to find that exact watch? Even stolen cars could be sold without a trace, a watch would be even easier.

Gold was even easier. In their business, the easiest method was to melt the gold and no trace of where it came from could be told. Who would claim that the gold was theirs?

The shop owner made a few hand gestures at Lu Shu and then waited for his response to his price. But Lu Shu couldn’t understand him even after some time, “Can’t you say it out properly?”

“From Li Zehui’s distress, +188!”

The shop owner Li Zehui could tell immediately that this teenager wasn’t familiar with this market. He immediately said sternly, “Gold prices are unstable. Today, those jewelry shops are setting gold prices at 283. I’ll have it slightly lower here, this much.”

He then made another hand gesture upon finishing.

Lu Shu only then understood the actual meaning behind his gestures.Couldn’t you say the price directly, why all these gestures?

Eventually, the watches and gold chains which were worth at least a hundred thousand brought Lu Shu 83 thousand dollars of cash!

Lu Shu had never been in contact with so much cash in his life. The purchase of the house was done through a bank transaction and the flow of numbers did not feel as real as cash.

He wasn’t nervous when carrying the gold chains and watches previously. Now that he had so much cash on himself, he was slightly worried that someone might rob him.

He then thought again. How many people had the ability to rob him now? Before relaxing again.

This was different from the 40 thousand dollars which they picked up. All this was earned legitimately and honestly by Lu Shu and his feelings towards this money were totally different.

The shop owner directed Lu Shu out of his shop, “When you want to do business in future, remember me. I can handle anything, be it items which are difficult to handle…”

Li Zehui felt that he had just bumped into a huge customer. For some reason, he felt that this teenager would definitely bring more business to him…

Lu Shu held Lu Xiaoyu’s hand and walked out of the door. The sunlight shone jubilantly throughout and Lu Shu felt extremely carefree.

This era… was indeed suitable for himself.

“Let’s go get some furniture and electronics. We have to change the electronics at home! Maybe we can paint the house or something afterward and make it seem like a new house!” With money, Lu Shu spoke with much greater confidence.

Lu Xiaoyu smiled slightly and looked up at Lu Shu who never seemed to let her down. It felt as if as long as he was around, there would be hope no matter how tough the circumstances were.

Lu Shu wanted to buy furniture, so they’ll buy furniture. Lu Shu said to paint the house, so paint the house they would!

They weren’t the people who had to consider the monetary constraints of eating instant noodles and roasted sweet potatoes anymore.

They weren’t dependent on someone else’s roof and didn’t have to worry about compensation when they broke something at home. Most of all, they didn’t have to save, scrimp and calculate if they had enough to afford school fees.

Life would get better, and this was only the beginning.
