Chapter 10: Money Bag

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The man did not hold back at all and retorted directly, “Do you know how the bug was created? Does this bug fix involve any changes? How much effort does a bug fix take? We’re already so busy with our own matters, and we still have to deal with your problems?”

“Also, why don’t we know about this bug? Do you know how it was triggered? If it was just an accidental bug, then we shouldn’t worry about it happening again. Spending even a second on this bug is a waste of time. If this bug caused delays in other projects and ultimately resulted in missed deadlines, who would be held accountable?”

“Do you even understand bugs, woman?”

Xiao Ruoyan: “???”

..

When she returned to the Public Relations department, Xiao Ruoyan, whose face was ashen, lay on the chair as if she had lost her vitality.

Suddenly, a cup of coffee was handed to her. She looked up and saw Qi Jun holding the coffee and smiling. “Didn’t I tell you? In the future, remember not to meddle in things that don’t concern you.”

“Thank you.”

Xiao Ruoyan picked up the coffee and took a sip, but she was still a little distracted.

“This matter ends here. Don’t bother about it anymore. There are still other things to do.”

Qi Jun comforted her. “I know that you’ve just joined the company, so you have a sense of collective honor. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have gotten into this kind of trouble. But you have to understand that it’s not that many things can’t be solved, but it depends on what can be achieved after you solve them. You have to learn to use your limited energy wisely.”

“Yes.”

Xiao Ruoyan nodded and said gratefully, “Thank you, Brother Jun.”

“You’re welcome.”

“Cheer up,” Qi Jun said gentlemanly. “There’s a new version to be released soon. We’ll be busy.”

“Alright, I’ll work hard.”

..

In the rented house.

Zhou Tianhao rested his chin on his hand and stared at the computer screen in a daze.

He was actually waiting.

Through this live broadcast, the bug in Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track had been revealed. The next step was to wait for the bug to be fixed.

However, he had been online for nearly an hour, but he still hadn’t received any notification from the system.

In other words, the bug had not been fixed. He did not know the exact reason.

“Maybe it will take a long time to fix the bug. Then let’s not care about it for now. Let’s draw the prize first.”

Zhou Tianhao got up from the chair and lay on the bed.

In an instant, a circular prize plate appeared in his field of vision. It was divided into eight areas, but it was covered by a layer of fog, so he could not see the specific rewards. Below it was a screen that displayed his Face Slapping Points balance.

[Face Slapping Points: 1193.]

In this live broadcast, the number of people who were successfully slapped in the face by him was a little more than expected, but it was still alright.

Since it was from the system, Zhou Tianhao was not worried that he would get any dangerous items.

“Lottery.”

He silently chanted in his heart. After the Face Slapping Points automatically decreased by 1,000, the needle immediately lit up and began to spin rapidly.

Five seconds later, Zhou Tianhao saw the needle stop in the north.

The fog in the area quickly dispersed. Zhou Tianhao saw a round bag filled with gold coins.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a money bag. You can randomly draw any amount of money between 1 and 1 million.]

[Ding! Do you want to open the money bag now?]

“Money bag!”

Zhou Tianhao’s eyes lit up. He was overjoyed and said without hesitation, “Open!”

With that, the cloth bag full of gold coins appeared in front of him again.

Thump!

A few gold coins popped out of the cloth bag and fell back into the bag. Then, a circle of light appeared and surrounded them. It was very similar to the skin-changing mini games he had played before. It was full of poor SFX quality.

As expected, a light appeared with a few large golden words.

[Congratulations on obtaining 100,000 cash!]

[Note: The higher the monetary reward, the lower the probability of it appearing.]

[Note: The cash will be distributed through reasonable and legal channels.]

“How much is this?”

Zhou Tianhao didn’t see how much money he had drawn. He started counting with his fingers, “One, ten, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand!”

Just as he finished counting, Zhou Tianhao’s shattered mobile screen lit up.

He focused his eyes.

“[Bank X], your account ending with 520 has received 100,000.00 yuan. The balance is 100,023.00 yuan.”

Zhou Tianhao was stunned. The money had arrived so quickly!

At this moment, he looked at the messages on his phone and could not help but feel melancholic.

He had just graduated from university before he obtained the system.

Like many of his classmates, he also fantasized about the time when he would be able to earn millions a year after he started working.

However, after he came out, he realized that reality was thousands of times crueler than his dreams. It was difficult to earn more than ten thousand yuan a month, let alone a million yuan a year.

In the end, he felt that he was quite talented when it came to games and chose the path of game leveling.

Relying on his reputation as a pro gamer, he would take on some orders. Although he couldn’t be rich, it was better than him being bullied by some lousy company every day. He could make a living.

However, since he needed to make a living, the orders he received were all snatched at a discounted price.

As a result, although he had no problem supporting himself and could even eat a good meal occasionally, he didn’t dare to buy or even look at anything. He only used Xixi to buy online.

The only valuable computer he had was the one he had used in his university days. When he bought it, it was only a few thousand yuan. In an era where hardware was constantly changing, the configuration of this computer was already considered an antique.

Why did he want to play Goose Speed? Weren’t other games good? Did he not understand?

No, none of that. The main reason was that he didn’t have the money to change to a better PC.

Goose Speed, on the other hand, required a relatively low hardware configuration, and it was one of the few games that his computer could play.

This was not pure love, but a compromise for survival.

Back then, when Zhou Tianhao accepted the first order, he had fantasized that one day when he had a lot of money, he would definitely buy the best equipment.

He wanted to buy anything, be it the Feral 5090Ti, the Trident, or the Prodigal Eye!

He wanted the best mouse, the clickiest keyboard, and a 360HZ screen. He wanted to buy two, one for the main and one for the secondary screen!

These were the things he had yearned for the most back then, and all of this required money, a lot of money at that.

Now, he looked at the text messages on his phone. He knew that he could have everything he wanted!

With an excited heart and trembling hands, Zhou Tianhao unlocked his phone and scrolled through the interface.

However, he suddenly felt as if he had lost his mind. He slid around and didn’t know which one to order.

Looking at the dazzling array of applications, he was at a loss for a moment.

He suddenly had so much money that he didn’t know how to spend it.

“F*ck, can I not be so useless!”

Zhou Tianhao forced himself to calm down. He took a deep breath and looked at the screen again.

He first opened his Beep website and found his watch list.

There was an online channel that he had been paying attention to for a long time.

Zhou Tianhao frequently watched videos posted by the channel host featuring high-end computers costing tens of thousands of yuan. Late at night, he would observe the host assembling the latest hardware and running various benchmark tests, which fascinated him. These computers embodied the most advanced technology of mankind and Zhou Tianhao dreamed of owning one someday.

There was once when he braced himself and went to use his own computer to run the benchmark score. In the end, the computer in the video ran more than three million points. He didn’t even have a fraction of the other party’s score. He could only show envy in front of the screen.

After watching it for a while, he realized that this digital blogger would not only post videos but also accept orders.

In other words, as long as you gave him money, he would be responsible for buying computer accessories, helping you assemble them, and finally sending them to you.

Of course, Zhou Tianhao didn’t plan to do that.
