Chapter 76: Liu Li is my lucky star! (Part 2)

Lu Shu did not know what was so special about his stinky tofu . It seemed as though one would get addicted to it once they had tasted it and all those who loved stinky tofu had become his loyal customers . Perhaps, even with these 50 portions of stinky tofu, it would probably all be sold out in 10 minutes .

Luo Cheng was a rather small city . If any family were to go out on a holiday together and post something on their social circle, they would discover that they had many mutual acquaintances just by looking at whoever was liking their post .

Luo Cheng's area was small and if anyone were to discover anything delicious and had publicly announced it to their social circle, a huge group of people would then come for it .

A famous store called "Lao Wan Baked Wheat Gluten" had food which tasted rather ordinary but was a little above average in terms of their standards . In the end, after the Luo Cheng citizen had tasted it, they had changed Lao Wan Baked Wheat Gluten into a store with a prestigious image .

The hype would gradually die down and when there were fewer people who were crazy over it, their business returned back to its normal state .

Luo Cheng citizens… can wake up as early as 5 am in the morning and drive 30km out to the MJ county in order to have a bowl of Tie Xie mutton soup…

Lu Shu felt that his stinky tofu could be in the same situation now as news of it had spread far and wide .

He had met about 5 people this morning who were waiting for him even before his store had opened and left right after they had gotten their portion of stinky tofu .

If his stinky tofu were really that attractive, Lu Shu would not need to worry about his basic needs in the future . The issue was that if his business were to be like the past 2 days with only an income of about a thousand points, perhaps he wouldn't even be able to have the capital to enter the lottery draw .

He was left with over 2000 points from yesterday and with today's income of about 1000, Lu Shu was left with a total of only 3200 points .

If not for his adorable classmates, Lu Shu would have to sharply reduce the portions of stinky tofus tomorrow!

Lu Shu was packing up his box and suddenly, someone approached him and asked, "Hey boss, are there any more stinky tofus . "

"Nope," Lu Shu lethargically replied

"From Yang Chao's distress, +49!"

Lu Shu was stunned . This… was a resentment which was caused by not being able to get a portion of his stinky tofu? Perhaps if he were to answer them in person, only then would it stir up sufficient amount of resentment towards him?

He had noticed that there were many people who were contributing distress points to him in the low tens yesterday but he did not bother about them, thinking that it was caused by the stench of the stinky tofu . But looking at it now, it seemed like there could be another opportunity!

This person's name was Yang Chao and he had already left but Lu Shu was still staying put . Since there was still an hour until his class started, there was no rush at all!

Lu Shu sat on the foldable chair as he looked after his carrier box, which was covered up .

In just a while, yet another person asked, "Boss, are there anymore stinky tofus?"

Lu Shu opened up his box only to show that it was completely empty as he merrily replied, "Nope, all sold out!"

The passerby initially thought that Lu Shu was about to retrieve a portion of stinky tofu out from the box when he had uncovered it . In the end, the box was completely empty when he had opened it!

If the stinky tofu were all sold out, what are you still doing here? The passerby was bewildered . Were you waiting here just to tease me?! I'll call the cops on you okay!

"From Zhang Guang's distress, +110!"

Lu Shu continue to sit there, refusing to move as he had suddenly found a new way to get rich!

There were not many who had come by to inquire about the stinky tofu and some of them weren't even his returning customers . Even so, all of them were contributing some distress points to him!

Those who had not tried his stinky tofus before contributed between 10 to 60 points while those returning customers contributed even more .

After half an hour, Lu Shu had finally stood up . From today's sale of stinky tofu, he had accumulated a total of 4000 distress points in the end and including yesterday's 2000 points, he had a total of 6000 .

Not bad, not bad .

Uncle Li was curious and asked, "Shu, didn't you finish selling all of them long ago? Why are you still sitting here?"

Lu Shu happily carried his box and walked off, "I just wanted to be with you guys a little longer . I'll get going, Uncle Li!"

"This child," Uncle Li shook his head and smiled, continuing to sell his breakfast food .

Reaching school, the first thing Lu Shu did was to ask Jiang Shuyi, "Have you completed yet another 2 cycles?"

Jiang Shuyi nodded in agreement and he posed another question, "So how much more did your strength increase?"

"Its 432 pounds now and each cycle increased it by 108 pounds . Teacher Xi Fei had mentioned before that the increase in strength isn't the same for everyone and it depended on a person's talent but the difference will not be that large anyway," Jiang Shuyi explained .

That sounded about right, as Lu Shu nodded . If one were to finish a stage of his training regime and his strength was increasing at a fixed quantity no matter his aptitude, it would be more like a game instead of a training regime .

Jiang Shuyi returned the question to him, "So how much did your strength increase?"

Lu Shu was stunned as he did not understand why Jiang Shuyi would ask such a question and he subconsciously avoided stating exact figures, "It's progressing quite decently . What's the matter?"

"Oh, I'd heard from my family that the strength-type metahumans would find it hard to reach a strength worthy of an E and F class when they had first awakened . They would only continue to grow later on and even those with higher aptitudes could only reach a strength of 1200kg initially . That was why I had wanted to see what kind of situation you were in," as Jiang Shuyi explained .

Oops, Lu Shu did not know that a metahuman's strength could continue to increase after he had first awakened . He had thought that it would always stay constant forever at the value it was the moment they had awakened .

The information he possessed was indeed too few and he understood that he had to hang out more often with Jiang Shuyi .

Since he had chosen to pretend to be a strength-type metahuman, he had to act the part as well .

"You should report your awakening to Xi Fei, something good will come your way," as Jiang Shuyi reminded him .

But when Lu Shu enquired about what good will happen to him, Jiang Shuyi kept quiet and did not continue the conversation .

Lu Shu earnestly thought about what Jiang Shuyi said . Since he did mention that there would be benefits, there were no doubts about it and the Heavenly Network did not really do anything to those who had awakened in the Daoyuan class . As such, there should not be any problems .

Moreover, he had already showcased his strength to all of his classmates and hiding it from Xi Fei might be a little pointless .

That night, Lu Shu reported his case of awakening to Xi Fei during class and he was rather surprised, "How did you awaken?"

Sitting on his futon, Lu Shu replied, "It was during the arm-wrestling match against Liu Li . Class representative Liu Li really is my lucky star!"

Xi Fei was stunned, "Awakening from just arm-wrestling?"

"Yeap, everyone was there at the scene," as Lu Shu nodded .

"From Liu Li's distress, +555!"

Who the hell is your lucky star, please stop spouting your nonsense! Liu Li's face became green from shame as that statement from Lu Shu was so uncomfortable to listen to .

Everyone now knew that a loser from Sophomore Class 3 had received some blessings from arm wrestling Liu Li and had suddenly awakened . Liu Li felt rather troubled just by thinking about it!

Xi Fei nodded his head to show that he understood the situation and even noted it down onto the notebook which he carried around everywhere .

Lu Shu saw that Xi Fei was acting so serious as if he was about to report this incident up to his superiors . Could there really be any benefits?
