Chapter 75: Chapter 75: System, You Call This a Salesman?
Deep into the night, all was still and undisturbed.
In Lin Chuan’s mind, a familiar electronic tone sounded.
Pleasing to the ear, melodious.
[Forever full of passion, always filled with anticipation.]
[A new life, a new experience.]
[Congratulations, the “Hacker Professional Life” you experienced has been adapted into “Hacker Kingdom”, and it has been loved by readers at home and abroad. With a Popularity Value of 7878, you can unlock a new career experience.]
[Would you like to immediately experience a new career and start a new life?]
“Yes.”
Lin Chuan grinned and didn’t hesitate.
A gentle breeze blew in through the window, refreshing Lin Chuan, while the swaying shadows outside seemed to cheer for him.
The career as a Hacker brought Lin Chuan ‘Top-Level Hacker Technique’, and with it, he founded a studio, collaborating with several internet cafes. There was a clear upward momentum.
Besides, on April 10th.
Sailing Novel settled Lin Chuan’s royalties.
Both “Swindler” and “This Assassin Is Too Professional” were huge hits, plus the 50,000 yuan prize money from “Heroes Compete”. The total royalties for March amounted to an astonishing 450,730.28 yuan.
After taxes received, 400,248.49 yuan.
Four hundred thousand!
Lin Chuan went from being a down-and-out pauper to a ten-thousandaire overnight. The sudden enrichment was exhilarating at first, but due to the studio’s demands, he was kept too busy to spend the money.
Even his living arrangement was still the same old rental, cramped and small.
But I digress.
Whether it was the studio or last month’s royalty earnings of four hundred thousand, Lin Chuan knew that a big part of the credit went to the system.
Of course, Lin Chuan himself also played a significant role.
After all, the careers the system had Lin Chuan experience were all the type that could land someone in jail. With even a slightly crooked thought, he might have been squatting in a cell right now.
Perhaps, by now he would have been in prison learning how to sew, make umbrellas, or print high school exam papers.
Perhaps it was receiving the royalties, tasting the benefits of the top-level hacker techniques.
Therefore.
Tonight Lin Chuan didn’t send ‘intimate greetings’ to the system, but communicated with it amicably in his mind.
“System, can you arrange for me some normal careers?”
“I don’t want to live this nerve-wracking life anymore.”
The system replied just as amiably—
[Host, all our careers are random, eh. We don’t deliberately arrange them. You can pray to get some super careers.]
Lin Chuan pulled a face, “Screw you, system. You speak such mechanical language.”
Forget it.
Since the system said the careers are random, after Thief, swindler, Assassin, and Hacker, four consecutive ‘jail-worthy’ careers, it’s time to taste something different.
And by the way, acquire some worldly skills!
The system continued—
[Each experience is a beautiful memory for you.]
[Our system will preserve this memory for you in the form of a novel.]
[For this experience, the career you have randomly obtained is…]
[salesman!]
Lin Chuan: ?????
Ohoho!
System, I believe you now!
Your job choices are indeed random!
A salesman it is, then.
I believe that with my expertise in ‘Lock-picking’, ‘Cheating Techniques’, ‘Assassin’s Three Skills’, ‘Hacker’, among others, along with the salesman-exclusive abilities granted by the system, I can rise from a modest salesman to a tycoon of commerce.
Building my own business empire!
This thought alone sent ripples of excitement through Lin Chuan, and he couldn’t help but hum to himself. The novel generated this time would surely be a thrilling urban fiction, risk-free and a reader-favorite.
Perfect!
[Congratulations Host, you have randomly obtained the profession of salesman. You have acquired the salesman’s exclusive ability: business negotiation skills.]
[Using ‘Virtual Reality’ technology, we are generating a new world for you.]
[Please prepare yourself, Host!]
Lin Chuan smiled to himself with a nod.
This ‘business negotiation skill’ isn’t bad—it will be of great help when establishing my own business empire and negotiating deals in the future.
Lin Chuan thought contentedly.
The system began to construct a new world with ‘Virtual Reality’ technology, unrelated to reality, a world solely for Lin Chuan to experience.
Before long,
Lin Chuan’s consciousness had entered the virtual reality world.
At this moment, Lin Chuan found ‘himself’ sitting in an MPV van.
He sat in the middle of the second row, flanked by two muscular men with dark, bare arms and strange tattoos; they didn’t look like good people.
Lin Chuan was slightly vigilant in his heart.
Who was this big shot he was supposed to negotiate with that the proceedings were so ‘grand’?
Lin Chuan then looked out of the window and occasionally saw banana trees receding in the distance.
The road here was like a country lane—very bumpy—causing the vehicle to sway back and forth, occasionally bumping into the arms of the two robust men beside it.
Between a rock and a hard place.
Fortunately, the journey wasn’t very long. Just a few minutes later, the van came to a stop.
This was an abandoned factory.
The walls of the factory building had natural cracks, rough and desolate.
Outside the factory, several abandoned racks were covered in rust, weeds grew untidily to about half a person’s height, and there were randomly piled wooden boards among them, their colors almost completely faded, leaving only rough traces.
Even under the fierce sunlight, the place was eerily silent.
Lin Chuan frowned.
Because, he saw six guards outside the factory building.
These six people, all wearing floral shirts and with sun-blackened skin, were holding a weapon in their hands.
As an owner of ‘firearms-precise shooting’ ability, Lin Chuan was very familiar with guns.
Even from a distance, he could recognize the type of weapon at a glance.
AK47.
‘Damn!’
Lin Chuan’s mouth twitched, and he frowned slightly, inwardly cursing.
System, what kind of salesman negotiates with an AK47?
At that moment, a group of people walked out of the abandoned factory.
The one leading was a young woman in a bright red dress, wearing sunglasses, and holding a lit cigarette.
By her side, two muscular men were ‘escorting’ a bloodied young man.
Smack!
They tossed him in front of Lin Chuan.
The young man was barely breathing and begged, “Don’t hit me anymore, let me go home. I’ll do whatever you want!”
The woman in the red dress pushed her sunglasses up and stepped on the youth’s chest with one foot, laughing coldly, “Useless trash, still thinking about escaping?”
“Please, just let me go home!” the youth pleaded desperately.
“You can’t even achieve five million in performance, and you want to go home? Beat him!”
The woman in the red dress spoke coldly.
The two dark-skinned strong men immediately picked up iron rods and started beating the young man on the ground.
At this time,
the woman in the red dress lifted her wavy hair and walked up to Lin Chuan, “Handsome little guy, welcome to our Glory and Wealth KK Factory District.”
KK Factory District?
Lin Chuan’s brows furrowed tightly, and he had already cursed the system a thousand times over in his heart!
You call this a ‘salesman’s professional life’ experience?
