Seeing the system's prompt message, Lin Shan didn't feel surprised,
after all, his name was "Gem Merchant," stealing gems was naturally justified!
But when Lin Shan saw this "black gem" that fell into his backpack,
he instantly became uneasy!
"Holy crap! No way!"
"This....... Won't Aunt Wang punish me?!"
"I didn't mean to do it!"
"If it really doesn't work, I'll return it!"
"After all, such a valuable item...... I'm still a bit nervous!"
This black gem that landed in his backpack wasn't an ordinary black gem!
"Black Gem: Level 16."
You have to know that a level 16 black gem,
is a gem synthesized from 65,536 level 1 black gems!
The price of a single black gem in the district had reached 160,000 Dream Coins!
A simple, effortless act of "skillful thievery,"
had actually yielded over 65,000 level 1 black gems,
Lin Shan felt a little uncertain,
after all, according to the latest market prices,
a level 16 black gem was already selling for 58,000 Yuan on the Treasure Pavilion!
While this price wasn't exactly considered extremely valuable to Lin Shan!
But this item was directly stolen from the system NPC, after all,
it couldn't be compared to the 160-level weapon that he had just dropped,
after all, the weapon was unidentified when Lin Shan stole it,
and with his good luck, he had imbued the weapon with a value of over 200,000 Yuan.
Lin Shan's judgment had indeed been right,
this Gem Merchant was indeed "full of hidden secrets"!
But the result of stealing it, indeed, made Lin Shan somewhat unprepared.
Lin Shan would never have imagined that an ordinary NPC selling gems would actually have such an expensive item hidden on them,
often, the more inconspicuous the small character seems,
the more goods they secretly possess!
Even hundreds of times more than the big shots!
Seeing that the time had already passed midnight, it was time for Lin Shan to rest,
after all, he had already been late once yesterday and was the subject of discussion among his colleagues, causing him to rush to the conference room, a scene Lin Shan never wanted to experience again!
Time waits for no man, he couldn't delay any longer,
he had to shut down his computer and go to bed immediately!
Therefore, Lin Shan decided to keep this level 16 black gem temporarily in his backpack,
if after getting off work tomorrow night, his character hadn't run into any trouble and wasn't punished by Aunt Wang,
then it would mean this "God of Theft" system, indeed had some skills, it was a "reliable" product!
As the computer's main unit shut down, the fan stopped, and the humming of the old air conditioner on the wall became even clearer!
But clearly Lin Shan was already familiar with this environment, even if it was noisy, it wouldn't stop him from falling asleep,
after all, three years in the "city village" wasn't for nothing, this skill had been honed to perfection by Lin Shan!
In a blink of an eye, the darkness outside the window faded, the red sun hung in the sky as usual, punctually,
8:20 AM!
Lin Shan, who had already eaten breakfast and prepared for work, was quietly waiting for the pre-shift meeting in the office.
After a short meeting, Meng, the team leader, asked Lin Shan to stay behind to talk to him.
"Lin Shan, your lateness yesterday, it was really unfortunate that the leader caught you,"
"I wanted to speak up for you, but you know the leader's temper......."
"So, you might not get the full attendance bonus this month......."
While speaking, the team leader with the surname Meng sighed and shook his head,
trying his best to show that he was powerless in this matter.
But because his acting was too amateurish, Lin Shan saw through him instantly!
At this moment, Lin Shan felt a wave of coldness in his heart,
they had worked together for three years, everyone knew everyone else!
Don't even say it was just a simple 5-minute lateness, in this kind of unit, even if you were absent for half a day,
there wouldn't be a huge impact,
the control over the attendance system was completely in the hands of the team leader,
the leaders above wouldn't intervene,
and wouldn't question the team leader for it,
it was clearly a play orchestrated by the team leader with the surname Meng!
The purpose was to prevent Lin Shan from getting this 1,000 Yuan full attendance bonus that rightfully belonged to him!
As the saying goes, "A higher official crushes a lower one," even though the surname Meng was full of bitter smiles,
but as an employee, Lin Shan could only cooperate with him and play along,
although he was playing along, he definitely wouldn't let the team leader with the surname Meng take this 1,000 Yuan from his pocket so easily,
he would make the team leader with the surname Meng suffer as much as he was suffering!
"5 minutes late and the big boss caught you?"
"This leader really has no vision, I must go and argue with him after work!"
Hearing this, the team leader with the surname Meng naturally felt anxious, after all, it was something he fabricated, in case Lin Shan really went, he would be exposed!
"Lin Shan, what you're doing is going over my head!"
"Are you done with this job?"
This job was indeed very important to Lin Shan,
it was through exhausting the connections his father had maintained for over a decade that Lin Shan had the opportunity to work at this state-owned factory.
Although it was hard and tiring, Lin Shan was still working hard every day,
if he lost this job, Lin Shan would face the same life as his father, working odd jobs,
plus this heavy debt, it would be a scene that Lin Shan didn't dare to imagine!
Lin Shan didn't say anything else, after all, he couldn't fall out with the surname Meng over this trivial matter,
at this moment, the fist that Lin Shan was hiding behind his back was already clenched tightly,
both his cheeks were puffed up,
he wished he could chew up the surname Meng in front of him to vent his anger!
"Just kidding, team leader, I'll pay more attention in the future!"
After saying that, Lin Shan turned and went straight to work without looking back!
...
The day's busy work was about to end,
Lin Shan's heart was already flying in the clouds!
Or rather, Lin Shan's heart was already flying in the world of Dream Westward Journey!
"Is that level 16 black gem still there?"
"Won't my account that I've nurtured for so many years be roasted because of this?!"
"Did my God of Theft count go up again today?"
Lin Shan was looking at the machine in front of him, dumbfounded and smiling foolishly.
There were 10 minutes left until the end of work, the factory wasn't busy recently, so they basically didn't need to work overtime.
"What are you daydreaming about, kid? If you keep being so absentminded, I'll report your situation to the leader!"
With 5 minutes left until the end of work, the surname Meng didn't forget to pick on Lin Shan's faults,
even though everyone else was already hiding in the toilet, smoking and slacking off.
"I'm shutting down the machine...... Besides, I didn't......"
The surname Meng didn't give Lin Shan a chance to speak,
"What? You're not convinced? You're the team leader, I'm the team leader?!"
Now Lin Shan was completely angered by the surname Meng's provocation!
Therefore, he took off his gloves and slammed them hard on the surname Meng's face!
