The next morning, early, Luo Chuan turned off his alarm before it could ring again. As long as I wake up fast enough, the alarm clock will never wake me up.
He felt a sense of self-satisfaction and picked up the white lucky bag that had appeared on his bedside table.
That’s right, today was the 15th, the day the "Experienced Gold Digger" title came into effect, allowing him to receive a random amount of gold.
Theoretically, Luo Chuan had a chance of receiving a mountain of gold, but he knew that this probability was very, very small.
The moment he picked up the lucky bag, a wide smile spread across Luo Chuan's face because he felt that this time it was considerably heavier than the last time.
He opened the lucky bag and sure enough, inside was no longer a pile of gold nuggets but a whole gold bar, clearly marked with the words “200G.”
Just this gold bar alone was worth one hundred thousand yuan at market price. After playing with the gold bar for a while, Luo Chuan hid it at the bottom of a box, as he always did.
“I should find time to deposit it in the bank, so much gold at home is really unsafe,” Luo Chuan muttered to himself.
Although there were rarely any thefts in Daxing Village, it was better to be safe than sorry. Putting it in the bank would reduce the risk.
After getting out of bed, Luo Chuan went directly to the back mountain and then started practicing his boxing, ready to upgrade his Eight Extremities Boxing to LV2 after this round of practice.
【Eight Extremities Boxing +4】
【Eight Extremities Boxing LV2: 1/1000】
【Eight Extremities Boxing upgraded to LV2, reward Bone +3】
Bone? This was the first time this kind of reward had appeared.
Soon, Luo Chuan felt a cool air permeating his limbs and bones. It was as if a shackle had fallen off his body, making him feel much lighter.
In general, martial arts practitioners in movies and TV shows emphasize the importance of bone. The so-called bone refers to the talent and aptitude of a martial arts practitioner.
If you just want to learn a few farming techniques, bone doesn't matter. But if you want to practice boxing to a deeper level, talent is indispensable.
Without talent, even if you train diligently in summer and winter for a hundred years, you won't get anywhere. This shows the importance of talent.
This increase in bone manifested itself in Luo Chuan as more experience. Before, each time he practiced boxing, his experience would increase by four or five points. Now, for the same set of boxing, his experience might increase by eight or nine points, or even more.
This is the difference that different bone levels bring. No wonder ancient people valued a person's bone so much. They could practice in a day what you could practice in two days. How could you compare?
After upgrading his Eight Extremities Boxing, Luo Chuan was in a good mood. He practiced a set of Zhuang Gong to warm up before heading back home leisurely to have his meal.
After dinner, the phone on the table buzzed.
Luo Chuan picked it up and saw that it was Lin Da Wei. It seemed that something had been decided regarding the house.
Sure enough, after discussing it with his wife, Wang Sheng Nan, Lin Da Wei had finally decided to rent the house. Money could be earned again, but they only had one daughter, and for their daughter's future, the couple had made a difficult decision.
A smile spread across Luo Chuan's face as he said,
“Okay, Uncle Lin, let’s meet at the entrance of the residential area at twelve o’clock noon. I’ll bring the contract with me then.”
After hanging up the phone, Luo Chuan quickly collected the bowls and plates, picked up his bag, and went to the city. He found a law firm and drafted a rental contract.
Later, he met Lin Da Wei and his wife at the entrance of the residential area, who were already waiting there. That’s right, both of them came.
Although in the story, Lin Da Wei’s wife, Wang Sheng Nan, was a real-life tiger mom, she was still very polite to outsiders. At least, she gave her husband a lot of face, letting Lin Da Wei and Luo Chuan handle everything while she stood aside, exuding the air of a good wife and mother.
Unfortunately, he didn't see Lin Miao Miao, but that was to be expected. Lin Miao Miao had finally escaped from the tiger's claws, so naturally she wouldn't be willing to let her parents accompany her. She probably avoided them when she came out to rent a house.
After signing the contract, Lin Da Wei immediately transferred nineteen thousand eight hundred yuan to Luo Chuan’s bank account.
Luo Chuan smiled at the message on his phone and handed the house keys to Lin Da Wei.
“Uncle Lin, the house is yours now. If you don’t want to rent it anymore, just give me a call beforehand.”
“Okay, no problem,” Lin Da Wei nodded readily.
The three of them walked to the entrance of the residential area and just happened to bump into Pei Yin, who was limping. Beside her was the scholar, Qian San Yi, carrying things, just as cold as he was in the TV show.
“Oh, it’s you,” Pei Yin greeted.
“Hello, Auntie,” Luo Chuan said.
“How’s your foot?”
“I went to see the doctor and it's much better,” Pei Yin said with a smile.
“Yi Yi, this is the kid I told you about who helped me yesterday.”
Qian San Yi glanced at Luo Chuan and said thank you seriously. Luo Chuan waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing.
Then Pei Yin noticed Lin Da Wei and Wang Sheng Nan. When she saw Wang Sheng Nan, her face suddenly turned cold.
“Why are you here?”
Wang Sheng Nan’s face also looked bad. Because of some misunderstandings between Qian San Yi and her daughter, Lin Miao Miao, she didn't have any good feelings for this woman who was a bit pretentious.
“Why can’t I be here? Where I go doesn’t need your approval. Is the ocean your home? You're so nosy.”
“You….”
Wang Sheng Nan was not made of clay. With just a few words, she made Pei Yin speechless.
With no other choice, Pei Yin walked into the residential area with a cold face. Qian San Yi followed closely behind, but he specially glanced at Luo Chuan as he passed.
“Little Brother Luo, does she also live in this residential area?”
“Yes,” Luo Chuan nodded,
“But she lives in Building One, not near you.”
“That’s good. If she lived here, I would be annoyed if I saw her every day,” Wang Sheng Nan muttered.
Luo Chuan didn’t intend to be a peacemaker regarding the relationship between Wang Sheng Nan and Pei Yin. After saying a few polite words, Luo Chuan said goodbye and left, not wanting to get involved in the rest of the situation.
On his way back, Luo Chuan looked at the balance in his phone, thought for a moment, and turned around to buy himself two sets of clothes and shoes at the mall.
He was still wearing his old clothes from before, which didn’t fit him well anymore. Every time he squatted, he felt as if his clothes were about to split open.
After buying clothes, Luo Chuan went to a barber shop and got a haircut, trimming his long hair and getting a simple hairstyle.
It has to be said, Luo Chuan had a very good foundation. He was full of energy, vibrant, and with his short, choppy hair, he looked like a sunny and handsome guy. People couldn’t help but look twice when they saw him walking on the street.
Luo Chuan carried his bags full of stuff and returned to Daxing Village. As he passed by Jiao’s Glasses, he was called out by Jiao’s Dad.
“Chuan, have you eaten yet? Want some noodles?”
“Uncle, I’ve eaten. Tell Jiao Jiao to come to my place for tutoring later,” Luo Chuan shouted.
“Okay, no problem.”
Jiao’s Dad and Jiao’s Mom naturally fully supported Jiao Jiao's tutoring. If possible, they naturally hoped that Jiao Jiao would have a brighter future, rather than just getting a diploma for the sake of it.
However, as he looked at Luo Chuan’s back, a flicker of worry crossed Jiao’s Dad’s eyes.
