Jiangnan Prefecture, Qiantang County, Hulu Village.
At the east end of the village, there is a group of six or seven-year-old children playing in the open space. They are playing the game of wedding ceremony. There are two children, a boy and a girl, sitting in the front pretending to be parents. There is also a boy and a girl pretending to be parents. The bride and groom worship heaven and earth there, while the other children pretend to be guests and watch.
It was very lively and fun.
But on the other side not far away, there was a little boy sitting on a big rock, holding his chin and looking at the children playing games, with a look of helplessness on his face.
Why is he helpless?
Because this little boy is not from this world. He has traveled through time. In his previous life, he lived in a modern city and was a freelancer. To put it nicely, to put it worst, he has no one and lives an unsatisfactory life. He lives his life doing unsatisfactory things.
But a freelancer also has to make a living, so he often takes small jobs to earn some money to support his life. The last small job he took was to play games for a rich second generation who especially likes to play games. "Warcraft" game, but the strength is not good, so he plans to hire a substitute player to raise the level of the game characters before he can play.
That's when the accident happened.
There are many professions in "Warcraft". When he played the last professional monk, there was an earthquake at this moment. He watched helplessly as the computer in his hand fell into the cracks in the earth and fell into darkness. When the light appeared in his eyes again, he turned into a baby, a newborn baby. The baby's name was Zhang Ran, which was his name.
Zhang Ran was very happy when he traveled to this world, because he did not live a good life in his previous life. Although he had a high degree of freedom, he had very little money. He lived a full and hungry life every day. However, Zhang Ran did not live well when he traveled to this world. Because of the time travel thing, he actually has a golden finger, and this golden finger is very strong.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ran's eyes became dull, and a panel appeared in front of him where no one could see it.
ID: Zhang Ran
Level: Level 0
Skill Mall: Opened.
Wealth: 30 copper coins
Originally, the skill mall was not opened. In order to study how to open it, Zhang Ran spent a lot of brain cells and used various methods to test it. Finally, Zhang Ran finally figured it out. To open the skill mall, you must spend money. , which is the money in wealth, which is the amount of money Zhang Ran himself owns.
The world that Zhang Ran traveled to was the Ming Dynasty, that is, in ancient times. The usual money was copper coins and silver. As for gold, Zhang Ran had never seen it since he was born, and he had only seen broken silver.
In order to get money to open the mall, Zhang Ran started saving money when he was one year old and recharged it all into the skills mall. Until a few days ago, he saved a thousand copper coins and opened the skills mall.
After opening it, Zhang Ran saw the skills in the skill mall, and was worried and happy. What he was happy about was that these skills were all major professional skills of Warcraft. Now Zhang Ran understood where this panel came from. It turned out to be "Warcraft". 》Game changes.
But what worries Zhang Ran is that every skill here costs money, at least one tael of silver. The more powerful the skill, the more money. Later, the more money will be needed, which is so big that Zhang Ran doesn't dare to look at it. , It’s really millions of taels of gold, tens of millions of taels of gold, Zhang Ran can’t stand it anymore.
Because even if you sell your whole family, you won't get so much money.
Although the place where Zhang Ran was born is a small mountain village, Zhang Ran's family is a small wealthy family. Otherwise, he would not be able to collect a thousand copper coins in a few years. This is what ordinary people earn in a year. Cost of living.
Zhang Ran's father is Zhang Shun. Zhang Shun studied in a private school for several years and now works as an accountant in Wang Dafu's family. Wang Dafu is the richest man in Hulucun Village. He is a landlord, Lao Cai, and owns most of the land in Hulucun Village. They all belong to Wang Dafu, so as the accountant, Zhang Shun has some status in Hulucun.
Zhang Ran’s mother is Jimei, who takes care of the children at home. Zhang Ran is not the only child in the family. He has a sister and brother. The eldest sister is Zhang Xiaomei, who is ten years old this year. The second brother is Zhang Fu, who is nine years old. There is also a younger sister named Zhang Lan who is three years old this year.
Zhang Ran is still very satisfied with his current life, but the money comes too slowly. Now Zhang Ran is saving money and wants to save a tael of silver to exchange for a World of Warcraft skill, but he is too young, plus The previous thousand copper coins were obtained by him through cheating and smuggling. With such a dark history, his family did not give him much money at all. Zhang Ran was very distressed about this, thinking about how he could earn money quickly at such a young age. make money.
"Brother Ran, let's come over and play games together."
At this time, a voice came. Zhang Ran turned off the World of Warcraft panel and looked up. It was Er Gouzi calling him. This Er Gouzi was Zhang Ran's only friend, because once Er Gouzi was raped by the other two The older children were bullying, so Zhang Ran drove the two older children away, and Er Gouzi played with Zhang Ran.
Zhang Ran said: "I'm not going, I'm going home for dinner." Zhang Ran sneered at the marriage game played by children. He would not play such a childish game.
After saying that, Zhang Ran stood up and walked home.
"Zhang Qing, why do you always ask Zhang Ran to play with us? He has no interest at all." A five-year-old boy next to Er Gouzi said with a runny nose.
Ergouzi is the nickname, and Zhang Qing is the correct name.
"If I don't play with him, who will play with him? He is too lonely." Zhang Qing said like a little adult.
"But he doesn't like to play with us." He said while looking at the background of Zhang Ranyuan.
"This is his style." Zhang Qing said with admiration: "So it's still the same sentence, if he doesn't come to me, I will go to him to play." At this point, Zhang Qing thought of Zhang Ran's one-on-one fight. Highlight moment.
After reminiscing for a while, Zhang Qing said: "After he eats, I will let Brother Ran play the groom."
The friends agreed one after another.
After Zhang Ran returned home, Jimei had already prepared the food and put it on the table. His sister Zhang Xiaomei and his brother Zhang Fu had already sat at the table. His sister Zhang Lan was held in Jimei's arms and sat at the table. Zhang Shun sat At the main seat, Jimei saw Zhang Ran coming back and said, "You are the only one left. Wash your hands and eat quickly."
Zhang Ran obediently washed his hands, then sat next to Jimei, and started eating together. The meal was quite hearty, with two meat and two vegetarian dishes.
After a meal, Zhang Ran asked Ji Mei for two copper coins. It's not that Zhang Ran didn't want more. In fact, Ji Mei only gave Zhang Ran two coins at most every day. This was mainly because Zhang Ran wanted to get a thousand coins to open the skill mall. Coins, sometimes the methods used are not very honorable. In order to get a large amount of copper coins, Zhang Ran directly stole Jimei's money. For this reason, Zhang Shun beat Zhang Ran several times.
Therefore, Zhang Ran has a reputation of being greedy for money. The entire Hulu Village knows that Zhang Ran has been unhappy with money since he was a child.
After thinking about it for a period of time, Zhang Ran has thought of a way to make money quickly, and he must use stratagem, thirty-six stratagems, because he is too young and it is difficult to make money without stratagem.
The first step was to turn Zhang Ran's eyes on the children. It was impossible to make money from adults, because he had tried it before when he made the thousand copper coins, and it was fine at the beginning. Later, when he had too much money, he would attract attention. Some adults even wanted to snatch it away, and his parents also wanted to confiscate it. However, Zhang Ran made a quick decision and recharged the money. After that, Zhang Ran never made money from adults again.
The method Zhang Ran used was to rent rubber chopsticks. These rubber chopsticks are so much fun. There are various jumping methods. Children will definitely like to play with them.
It's just that rubber chopsticks don't exist in this world. If you want Zhang Ran, you have to make them yourself. Fortunately, Zhang Ran worked in a rubber chopstick factory in his previous life and knows the production process inside.
Rubber chopsticks are very easy to make, using rubber and latex, but rubber and latex are produced from rubber trees. Zhang Ran remembered that a villager cut down the trunk of a rubber tree from the back mountain, otherwise Zhang Ran would not have come up with the idea of rubber chopsticks. .
There are three mountains behind Hulu Village, two small mountains and one big mountain. The finished glyphs stand there. The hills are not dangerous. Villagers often go hunting animals or go up the mountain to collect firewood. As for the big mountain in the middle, no one has ever entered it because they have gone there before. All the people are dead, this is a forbidden place in everyone's heart.
Then on the second day, Zhang Ran went to the hill to look for rubber trees. What made Zhang Ran happy was that he found rubber trees only on the periphery of the hill. Then he took out tools to collect rubber and rubber sap. The sap is latex.
Zhang Ran spent a month making a 20-meter-long rubber chopper. Zhang Ran did this secretly because when Jimei found out, he would definitely confiscate his rubber chopsticks. After all, rubber choppers are also useful to adults. of.
Divided the 20-meter rubber chopstick into four sections and came to the open space where children often come to play. After arriving, he first found Zhang Qing and asked Zhang Qing to find another child, and then took out a section of the rubber chopstick. , Zhang Ran and Zhang Qing danced rubber chopsticks with another child.
Zhang Ran danced first. They didn't know how to play, so he wanted to get them together first. He danced the men's tiaopizhuo for a while, and then danced the women's tiaopizhuo for a while, which attracted many children to watch because of the movements. It was simple. After only reading it a few times, Zhang Qing and another child remembered it and started playing with rubber bands together.
Seeing all the children showing envy, Zhang Ran knew that the time had come, so he stopped playing with Zhang Qing and another child. Zhang Qing and another child were playing in excitement and suddenly stopped playing, making them feel like a sunset. The loneliness underneath.
Zhang Ran took out the other three sections of rubber chopsticks at this time, and then offered to rent the rubber chopsticks for two coppers a day.
These are children, Zhang Ran cannot ask for more, two copper coins are enough.
All the children's eyes lit up after hearing this, and they all took out their coins to rent rubber chopsticks. Finally, Zhang Qing and the three children rented the rubber chopsticks from Zhang Ran.
