"Hiccup~"
After burping lightly, Lu Li sat on the chair and started writing.
He looked up at the dirty ceiling, thinking a lot.
Starting from today, the focus of his life will change from designing high-end star cards to making low-level star cards to make money.
In order to save enough bread and milk to pursue his dream, Lu Li had to say goodbye to his past dreams for a short time.
Since the advent of storage cards, various items have become star cards, and their storage capacity has been greatly improved.
This also causes the houses in this world to be smaller than those in the previous life.
There was not much space to put on the small table in the room. The card-making equipment alone was already crowded on the table, and there was nowhere to put the hundreds of design drawings.
Lu Li swallowed a star power replenishing pill, activated the storage card, and stored all the design drawings in it.
As a star power depletion patient, Lu Li was not used to putting things into storage cards.
If you run out of medicine one day, you won't be able to take out the things you put in. Storage cards, an invention that is convenient for all mankind, are not convenient for Lu Li, a disabled person.
Sealing these dreams into the storage card also showed his determination. Lu Li wanted to make money, and he also wanted to find a way to cure the depletion of star power.
"Huh?"
While storing the storage card, Lu Li found an old star card in the corner of the drawer.
He picked up this star card with a pure white shell and gently wiped off the dust on it, with memories flashing in his eyes.
This star card was left by Lu Li's teacher.
In his impression, the teacher was a lame fat man.
Perhaps because Lu Li's natural star power was exhausted, his parents cruelly abandoned him when he was still an infant. It was this fat teacher who limped and carried little Lu Li home eighteen years ago.
The master and apprentice have lived together for nearly fifteen years. Teacher Fatty treats little Lu Li very well and treats him as his own son.
However, Fatty’s teacher didn’t allow Lu Li to call him daddy, saying that calling him dad would prevent him from picking up girls. However, his teacher had been a bachelor for fifteen years.
Teacher Fatty has indeed fulfilled his obligations as a teacher.
Education in school is closely related to star power. Little Lu Li, who had depleted his star power, was not accepted by the school at all. Teacher Fatty slowly taught him literacy and led him to understand the world.
During this process, Teacher Fatty also discovered that Lu Li was extremely talented in star cards, so he began to teach him knowledge related to star cards.
Teacher Fatty was very strict and taught very difficult things. Sometimes he even made Xiao Lu leave school and cry.
In nearly eight years, Lu Li only completed three basic courses from Teacher Fatty. However, just when he was about to start learning advanced knowledge, Teacher Fatty left without saying goodbye, leaving only this strange star card.
It has been three years since the teacher left.
The card's packaging was completely white, and Lu Li couldn't see the structure inside. Moreover, this star card is at least level one. With the little star power generated by Lu Li's drug taking, there is no way to use it.
"Who knows what teacher means?"
Lu Li put the mysterious star card back into the drawer, but after another thought, he put the card into his personal card bag.
This card is also a thought for the missing teacher. Lu Li certainly didn't think that the fat teacher had abandoned him like his parents. Maybe the teacher was looking for a way to cure star power depletion?
After collecting all the things that were temporarily unused, Lu Li began to place card-making equipment on the table.
Design tables, carving knives, card materials, and writing brushes are neatly placed on the table.
Lu Li took out several bottles of ink of different colors from the storage card. Their raw materials came from the eight star power sources, which can satisfy the production of almost all zero-level star cards.
As for the materials for first-level star cards and above, only card makers certified by the association can purchase them, and the prices of materials on the black market are ridiculously high. Lu Li has no money and no way out.
Looking at the slightly crowded table and feeling the humid air in the room, Lu Li sighed: "The conditions of this single room are really bad. I will definitely find another place to live when I have money."
Star cards in this world are temporarily unable to create land, so housing prices are as expensive as in the previous life.
Lu Li couldn't consider buying a house for the time being, but he could consider renting a house.
Although the internal environment of this dilapidated single room is poor, it is in a good location. Not only can you reach the hospital on foot, but there is also a convenient supermarket that sells Star Cards on consignment at the door.
If you want to change to a larger house with the same conditions, the price is not cheap.
Thinking of this, Lu Li glanced at the numbers on his savings card. It was really terrible.
"Make money!"
The thin boy slapped his cheek three times with his palm, cheered up, and once again devoted himself to making Sparks.
...
...
The weather was still gloomy, with a few flashes of lightning faintly flashing through the dark clouds, and the low pressure of an impending storm was a bit depressing.
It was already eleven o'clock in the evening, and Lao Li stood at the door of the convenience supermarket with a cigarette in his mouth. Curls of green smoke emerged from the cigarette butts, dancing in the increasingly wild evening breeze.
From this position, he only had to look up to see that Lu Li's room was still brightly lit.
"No matter what he does, Xiao Lu works hard."
In Lao Li's impression, this young man was physically disabled and strong-willed. Although he had no star power, he was still on the road to pursuing his dreams, and he was unwavering in every step he took.
Now, the young man has slightly changed his mind and started to save travel expenses for the journey to pursue his dream, but he still works hard.
"It's almost closing." Lao Li glanced at the clock hanging on the wall, turned around to close the door, and muttered with a cigarette in his mouth, "But this guy's luck is really good. The person who bought the stove card today seems to be There were so many that he sold all 20 of his cards in one go..."
"Boss Li...wait a minute!"
Suddenly someone called out to Lao Li, who was out of breath.
Lao Li, who was about to lock the door and leave, turned around and saw that the person who stopped him was a regular customer. He stopped locking the door and said hello with a smile: "Xiao Yu, it's so late. Are you off work?"
"Yes, I'm a bit busy today." Yu Xin panted and ran to Lao Li, holding her knees with her hands, and the makeup on her face was smeared with sweat.
She had indeed just gotten off work, and she hadn't had time to change out of her workplace attire. The slim-fitting trousers outlined her plump lower body, and the high heels under her feet were stained with a trace of mud.
"What do you want to buy?" Lao Li naturally wouldn't think that this little girl came to him late at night to talk about life.
"That kind of..." Yu Xin ran for a long distance in high heels, and she still hasn't recovered yet. "Do you still have those stove cards that look like the starry sky? I'll buy as many as I can."
"Huh?" Lao Li was a little surprised, "How did you know that I have this kind of stove card? But there are only 20 cards in total. They have been sold out. Why don't you come back tomorrow?"
Judging from the brightly lit appearance of Lu Li's house, he must be still busy making sparks, and it is estimated that the supermarket will receive new goods tomorrow.
"My neighbor Fang Xiaomeng sent the star card a message in Moments, and I ran over immediately after seeing it." Yu Xin also calmed down a little at this time.
She straightened up, her white shirt outlining her proud curves: "Boss Li, where did you purchase this card from?"
"Here." Lao Li pointed to the only bright window in the whole building, "It's right there."
"Thank you." Yu Xin thanked her hurriedly and rushed towards the unit building where Lu Li was.
"It's going to rain heavily tonight, go home early!" Lao Li gave a warm reminder for the safety of the young people.
Suddenly, he thought of Yu Xin's work again, and a smile appeared on his wrinkled face: "This guy is really lucky. Big business is coming."
