Chapter 336: 336
“300,301,320…” Lu Shu counted the stack of notes as he walked, “389 yuan!”
Although they were already rich enough to afford land or a house, Lu Shu was still passionate about making money . At first, he expected his journey in the Capital would be rather boring, but now he had found some new ways to have fun .
“Brother Shu…” Chen Zuan watched as Lu Shu counted the money for thirty minutes . It was not that the money was too hard to count, but Lu Shu had counted it more than once .
“Yes?” Lu Shu turned to look at Chen Zuan .
“Aren’t you hungry?” Chen Zuan hinted . It was almost 8pm and time for dinner .
“Nope,” Lu Shu replied, “I ate quite a lot of melon seeds this afternoon, and the fruit plate too . Oh, the honeydew was super sweet…”
“From Chen Zuan’s distress, +199!”
All this ordinary food now seemed so delicious . But could you please stop talking?
“Are you hungry?” Lu Shu grinned .
Chen Zuan was almost hissing with displeasure, “You asking me whether I’m hungry? Don’t you have any bloody idea about that?”
“Very good . I can feel your strong urge to survive . Let’s go for dinner,” Lu Shu smiled .
Just right there, was a street side stall, Chuanzhou Cool Pot Brochette and Lu Shu walked in with Chen Zuan . Anyway, living a life was equally important as earning money .
At the stall, customers could choose as many sticks of brochette as they wanted and pay accordingly . For this, Lu Shu knew a petty trick where he could hide the sticks in his Seal of Lands . That way, who know how many he ate?
But Lu Shu would never do that . It was not easy for him to make money, so it would be the same for other people as well .
Chen Zuan was ravenous . Although he had the talent of staving off hunger so long as he was full, who would use it under normal conditions? But truth be told, Lu Shu always found it hilarious that Zuan had awakened to this kind of power .

“Brother Shu, where are we sleeping today? Any plan for tomorrow?” Chen Zuan asked as he was gorging on brochette .
“Don’t worry . I’ve got a place in mind . You’ll have a good sleep, away from winds and rains, I promise,” Lu Shu replied as he stuffed food into his mouth .
Chen Zuan was confused . His reply didn’t quite sound like a hotel? Weren’t they going to stay in a hotel?
“Brother Shu, as a candidate in this assessment, do you have any plans for your future? Honestly speaking, I do admire you from the bottom of my heart, though I’m aware of your ordinary aptitude,” Chen Zuan asked .
“Don’t call me Brother Shu . It sounds like Brother Shoe . “
“Err…” Chen Zuan hesitated . Was there any difference?
One cannot deny the power of language . Despite the same pronunciation, the translation of a Chinese name into an English one could really make many jokes . No wonder Chen Zuan didn’t get it at first .
He took the entire thirty seconds to understand, “Ohh, okay . I shall call you Lu Shu then . “
“Not any plans in particular . I’ll just get along well with Xiaoyu, send her to school and grow some Chinese chives on a magic-rich land . Of course, I can’t sell the crops at a vegetable market, but maybe I can give it a try at the antique market,” Lu Shu spluttered .
Chen Zuan was stupefied, “So normal? You gonna be a farmer?”
What Chen Zuan had wanted to ask was Lu Shu’s plans in the Heavenly Network!
However, it seemed that Lu Shu did not intend on furthering his path in the Heavenly Network at all .
Was he unambitious or was it simply his character?
Was Lu Shu really considered an expert? Nowadays, the number of Class C experts in the country was on the rise and reached about one hundred . As one of the one hundred out of billions, Lu Shu was indeed an ace .

The two had a long chat . It was August, the hottest time of the year . Casually, Chen Zuan asked the stall owner, who was cleaning the tables dirtied by customers, “Hey, your cool pot brochette is very authentic . Are you from Chuanzhou?”
Being praised, the owner laughed at once, “Tank ya tank ya . “
Chen Zuan was speechless .
Lu Shu as well .
The air of the countryside was almost being emitted from his mouth .
The dinner cost more than one hundred dollars, less that Lu Shu’s expectation . Products at these kinds of stalls were usually cheap and fine . Then, Lu Shu led Chen Zuan towards the west .
“Where are we going?”
“You’ll know when we reach it . Based on the time now, we can make it there in time!” Lu Shu smiled .
Within five minutes, Chen Zuan found himself standing in front of a giant mall, a furniture shop!
“It’ll be closed at night . How to sleep?” Lu Shu’s intent was immediately clear .
“Can someone who has undergone cultivation still get caught by an ordinary security guard? What kind of cultivation are you trained for?”
“But… Didn’t Heavenly King Nie already say we are not allowed to use our power?”
“Are you an idiot? Did I not use my power when I smashed stones with my forehead just now? Without your power, you’ll be starved to death on the streets of the Capital . Understood?” Lu Shu said irritatedly . Though Chen Zuan looked like a smart guy, why did he suddenly become so obedient in the face of Nie Ting, just like those geniuses who grew up in the warm house?
Honestly, Lu Shu had underestimated the deterrence of Nie Ting’s name in people’s mind . Local students in the Capital were more afraid of him than respectful, but the converse was true for those from elsewhere .
Chen Zuan pleaded, “Nie Ting is our principal . “
Lu Shu chuckled at once . He was suddenly aware of his ignorance of this issue . Due to some special reasons, Li Yixiao was the principal in Luo Cheng . Thus, without a doubt, Nie Ting would be the principal in the Capital .
Seeing how frightened this little fatty was, Lu Shu could not imagine how much pressure Nie Ting had exerted on them .
“Don’t laugh,” Chen Zuan was cautious, “Heavenly King Nie is kind of weird . It seems that he has pretty good knowledge of a lot of things without even seeing them!”
Oh, Lu Shu nodded . They already had prior experience after all .
The pair strutted into the furniture shop . There, the IKEA would open until 10pm, unlike other furniture shops which usually closed at 5 to 6pm .
“After we enter, follow me to a hiding place . Since we are both unclean, don’t sleep on their beds . A random piece of blanket will do . We can sleep on their pillows, but do remember to wash your hair in the toilet before sleeping . Don’t cause them trouble,” Lu Shu said .
“Oh…” Chen Zuan was expecting to sleep on a bed . But after a second thought, this was still much better than sleeping outside under the sky . Earlier, he thought Lu Shu would make him sleep under a bridge .
For unknown reasons, Chen Zuan felt that although Lu Shu was a joker, he had his own principles he stuck to, which was praiseworthy .
Suddenly, he remembered Lu Shu’s words earlier that day . In a time when people’s physical strength had broken free from their imagination, if they had no restraints on themselves, who would know what kind of people they would end up as?
