Chapter 137: Chapter 82 Agreed to Slack Off Together, But I Stealthily Took Off_2

In the 21st century, a regular heavy-duty truck tractor had only 400 horsepower.

Currently, his Second Level Exoskeleton has not been fully upgraded, but his overall strength cannot be compared to what it was during the day.

As for the previous First Level Exoskeleton, he had simply put it up for consignment at the Military Weapon Store with a price tag of 1500 points.

If it really sells, then after deducting costs, he would earn 500 points with tears in his eyes.

There were actually quite a few materials that Ju Qingmeng paid for out of pocket, and the craftsmanship was also Ju Qingmeng’s work, so it was all basically freeloaded by Ren Zhong.

He felt a bit embarrassed, mentioning that he wanted to share the profits with Ju Qingmeng, but the wealthy Ju Qingmeng showed him the balance in her account.

Wow! A little rich lady!

Truly worthy of being a Second Level Citizen, truly worthy of being the "feudal lord" controlling the Military Weapon Store in the town.

Even though she had fallen on hard times, her account still had a five-digit contribution point balance, over ten thousand.

Ju Qingmeng’s purpose in showing Ren Zhong this was not to show off wealth, but to hope he wouldn’t get entangled in such minor matters.

She just hoped Ren Zhong would quickly grow stronger.

If Ren Zhong wasn’t so good at earning and wasn’t willing to ask for help, she even thought of sponsoring him proactively, unlike some stingy doctors who prefer to remain anonymous.

But Ren Zhong wasn’t jealous of her because by tomorrow morning, he would be even richer than Ju Qingmeng.

"Raise troops for a thousand days to use them for a moment."

Having mastered the core technology of sauce fragrance, the past month’s leading Demon Stock King of the Little City, Weiliang Liquor Industry, would officially close at exactly 9:15 am tomorrow.

A capitalist with 20,000 in the desolate world was about to be born!

In the previous resurrection, Ren Zhong at this time was intensely battling in Virtual Reality, wearing Bei Lihui’s Fourth Level Wrist Watch, waiting for the end of his life in an hour.

But this time during the resurrection, Ren Zhong had put on a full Second Level Warrior outfit and was about to become a capitalist with 20,000.

Every time, he felt that his footsteps were more grounded.

Centralized sleeping chamber, 8:59 pm.

Hanyu was about to activate the hypnosis function of the rented Wrist watch when she saw Ren Zhong stride in from outside the room.

She put down the Wrist watch, sat up straight, and looked at Ren Zhong with a puzzled expression.

Ren Zhong didn’t say much, just nodded slightly at her, then lay down directly, activating the Wrist watch hypnosis function, and fell into deep sleep.

Hanyu understood implicitly.

The next morning, everything would proceed as usual, except that Mr. Ren finally wasn’t going out hunting alone at night.

He truly understood the balance between work and rest.

Wonderful.

...

At five o’clock in the morning, Ren Zhong opened his eyes, feeling refreshed.

Starting today, he was also an officially certified Second Level Professional, qualified to receive a daily wage of 2 points.

Last night, he had deliberately returned to sleep and even used hypnosis, not because he was slacking off.

He had other plans.

While he advised others not to participate in the Second Level title assessment because they didn’t have absolute assurance—requiring specialized Potions that could easily attract attention—he himself was confident.

Zheng Tian’s team only had one Second Level Professional, which Lin Wang could tolerate for now.

But if everyone upgraded, it would be a different story.

Ren Zhong’s situation was different.

Since he was already found out by Lin Wang, excessively hiding his capabilities would only invite suspicion, so he decided to go with the flow.

So, he paid the 40-point registration fee and entered the Virtual Reality constructed for the title assessment.

This Virtual Reality had a lower quality than his experience with Bei Lihui’s Wrist watch, but it could still basically measure his abilities.

Ren Zhong skillfully spent several hours fighting Second Level Ruined Beasts, ultimately passing the title evaluation with a perfect score.

"Mr. Ren, shall we go?"

Hanyu shook Ren Zhong’s shoulder.

Ren Zhong nodded, "Okay."

The two of them descended the stairs side by side, illuminated by the lights.

The unfamiliar Night Watchman was curious but didn’t ask more questions.

When they arrived at the parking lot, Yujin was already waiting beside the Thunderbolt Car.

"Didn’t I tell you to arrive at 5:05? Why did you come early?"

"I didn’t want you, sir, to wait for me."

"Forget it, remember to be at the 13th sleeping chamber downstairs at 5:03 tomorrow morning. You will take Hanyu out of the town."

"Alright."

Ren Zhong introduced Yujin to Hanyu.

Three of them got into the Thunderbolt Car, Hanyu took the passenger seat, and Yujin sat in the back, and they drove off straight away.

Hanyu craned her neck to look towards the back seat, not to look at Yujin, but to find the box.

"Mr. Ren, you’re not preparing any restraint-type weapons this time?"

Ren Zhong shook his head and patted his shoulder, "Didn’t you notice? Look at the armor I’m wearing."

Hanyu understood.

This time he planned to go in headstrong.

You just upgraded to Second Level equipment, buddy!

But she quickly calmed down.

In retrospect, this guy used to take down Second Level Ruined Beasts with First Level equipment wielding a knife.

Now that he’s Second Level, taking on Third Level seems to be "nothing out of the ordinary."

After all, Mr. Ren never fights unprepared battles.

...

At 6 am, the Thunderbolt Car returned to the town with the corpses of two Third Level Ruined Beasts.

Hanyu and Yujin were speechless throughout the journey.

Both their heads were spinning a bit.

Could it really be done like this?

How on earth did you manage to do that?

Ren Zhong ignored their shock, instead expressing regret, "Something felt off, I haven’t fully unleashed the potential of my armor. I’m afraid... I’ll have to let that old guy make another profit out of me."

"Who?" Hanyu asked.

Ren Zhong rolled his eyes, "An honest-to-goodness old sly merchant, Sid Meier."

"Uh."

Hanyu was greatly shocked.

Judging from his tone, he seemed to be on familiar terms with that legendary warrior.

Turns out, Mr. Ren’s connections weren’t confined to Starfire Town!

Ren Zhong continued, "Yujin, you did well today. If it weren’t for your good marksmanship and perfect timing in luring only one White Stone Ape, we might have had to run immediately, and would have only got one Third Level Ruined Beast."

"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Ren, but it was all thanks to you, I didn’t really do much."

"Don’t be humble, I’ll figure out a way to get you a better gun someday."

Ren Zhong thought of Bei Lihui’s Scorpion Lion-191.

That was indeed a good gun; when hit by it, you wouldn’t even feel pain before dying.

"No need, Mr. Ren, I’ll save up myself."

"Let’s talk about it later."

...

A little past seven, Ren Zhong received a call on his Wrist watch from Ju Qingmeng while selling goods at Starfire Resources.

"Good news, your armor has been sold at the original price. I transferred the money to your Wrist watch directly through the consignment system to avoid transfer fees."

"Who bought it?"

"A chubby merchant from out of town with a mustache, last name Wang."

Ren Zhong realized.

The sly merchant Wang Zhaofu had fallen into the trap this time.

He laughed, "That makes sense, none of the people in Starfire Town could afford this armor. But roaming merchants who travel far and wide can always find some big clients."

Almost simultaneously, the acquisition funds from Starfire Resources arrived.

Ren Zhong glanced at his Wrist watch and immediately felt pleased, oh!

Now he has 1715.41 points again!
