Chapter 9 Finding a Job

look for a job.

This is the pain in Zhou Ming's heart.

If he could have enough money to spend his whole life, he would rather stay at home and die than go to work.

You have to be careful with your colleagues, you have to work hard to create value for the company, you have to satisfy your boss, and you have to be pleasing to the eye. Finally, you have to keep the company stable and avoid sudden layoffs.

But the reality is so cruel. In this era of money supremacy, even a beggar who does not go begging for a week has the risk of starvation. Zhou Ming, who has stayed in a rented house for more than a month and has not gone out much, has to go out to find a job. up.

Zhou Ming also thought of the system, the system is so powerful, it should be a small case to help him solve the problem of food and clothing.

"Sorry, host, the current system cannot provide the host with system props that can materialize items. After the host opens a higher-level game map, a [Realization Treasure Box] will appear in the [Items] of the system mall. Corresponding to use in the game map, after use, you can bring the items stored in the [Realized Treasure Box] back to reality.”

"Existing treasure chest?"

Zhou Ming became excited, and immediately found the [Realized Treasure Chest] in the [Item] column of the system mall, which was still locked, and clicked to view it.

Item: [Realized Treasure Box]

Function: It can bring the items in the copy of the game back to reality

Unlock requirements: You can unlock it after clearing the third-level map [Shengshihuazhang]
Redemption requirements: 1000000 achievement points

"One, two, three... six, I puff, it takes 100 million achievement points to redeem a physical treasure chest, system, are you kidding me?" A mouthful of old blood spurted out, seeing the long string of numbers 0 after the exchange request , Zhou Ming wanted to strangle the system to death.

By the time he has accumulated so many achievement points, he must have starved to death for a long time.

"The system, there is nothing else except the treasure chest, can it improve my current situation a little bit?"

Even if you can change bags of rice in the system mall, as long as you don't starve to death, you will one day be able to rely on this system to prosper.

"It doesn't seem to be there, except for a few attribute cards that the host can use."

"Attribute cards, and attribute cards that the host can use?"

Zhou Ming became excited. Most of the skill cards in the system mall can only be brought to the game map for the game characters to use, but he didn't expect that there are still some that can be used directly on himself, so he immediately urged the system: " Quickly show me those attribute cards."

Expand a product panel, and the system explained to several cards: "These attribute cards are [Intelligence Point Card], [Strength Point Card] and [Agility Point Card], after purchase and use, you can give The physical attribute corresponding to the host increases by 1 point."

"What about the exchange requirements, how many achievement points do you need?"

"Intelligence card 1500 achievement points, strength card 1000 points, agility card 1200."

"It's not expensive, it's only more than 1000 points, you can afford it, you can afford it!"

Zhou Ming rubbed his hands excitedly, feeling that the future is bright. Although each of these types of attribute cards can only increase his physical attributes by a limited point by 1 point, the effect is absolutely astonishing if the number of superimposed use is large!
Imagining that after using thousands of [Strength Point Cards], my superhuman performance of breaking steel and carrying thousands of catties, those ordinary earthlings, I am afraid that their eyeballs will fall out, right?

There is also [intelligence bonus card], he has always felt that his intelligence is not enough, after adding a few thousand points of intelligence, the average genius should be able to beat him, right?

Zhou Ming's saliva flowed down involuntarily, and he entered the YY state.

"Host, these attribute cards can only excavate the intrinsic potential of the host itself. If it exceeds the potential that can be tapped, the effect of the attribute card will be invalid." The system suddenly poured a basin of cold water.

"Invalid, why did it fail?" Zhou Ming asked, a little puzzled.

"As an ordinary carbon machine life, the total entropy energy that can be accommodated in the host body is limited, and it is impossible to break through the limitations of the inherent life body after digging... Unless, you can transform the life body itself to break through this layer limit."

"System, do you mean that no matter how many attribute cards I use, the final effect will not exceed the limit of human beings?"

Zhou Ming understood a little bit. What the system said may be similar to the concepts of "bloodline" and "gene lock" in some infinite novels.

However, even if you can't break through the limit of human beings, even if you reach or approach the so-called "limit", you will be much better than ordinary people.

"Don't worry about recharging your IQ, let's buy a few power cards first."

So, in order to find a job smoothly and solve the problem of food and clothing, Zhou Ming clicked to buy three [Power Point Cards] and used them immediately.

A burst of tingling current flows through the whole body, the muscles of the chest and back slowly bulge, the blood flow speeds up, the whole body is hot, and the sweat on the cheeks flows down like a waterfall, and it is also developing in the direction of the deep-sea giant eel at this moment.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Zhou Ming, who was full of vitality, jumped lightly, and touched the ceiling that he had never touched before, looked down at himself, and grinned happily: "Hey, I didn't expect that the power card is still there." With this miraculous effect, now you don’t have to worry about your girlfriend running away.”

Although, this virgin guy doesn't have a girlfriend.

"Go find a job!"

Putting on a coat, Zhou Ming went out confidently.

……

In the west of the city, there is a huge construction site, and countless huge construction equipment are under construction in full swing.

At the corner of the construction site wall, a half-built commercial housing downstairs, Zhou Ming, wearing a hard hat, walked over.

"Boss, do you need brick movers at this construction site?"

Zhou Ming walked up to a middle-aged man who looked like a contractor and said.

The middle-aged contractor glanced at Zhou Ming, and after glancing at his thin and thin body, he waved his hands and said, "Young man, ordinary people can't do the job of moving bricks. You should go and look elsewhere."

"Boss, let me try. If I can do it, let me stay. If I can't do it, I will go by myself." Zhou Ming stopped the contractor and said, turning to leave.

Seeing Zhou Ming's resolute expression, the contractor thought for a while, and said to the person in charge of the construction: "Give this kid a trial run for a long time, if he can't do it, he will leave by himself."

The person in charge of the construction pulled Zhou Ming aside, pointed to a pile of high bricks not far away, and said, "Young man, let's start here first, and move this pile of bricks to the elevator."

"Okay!" Nodding his head, Zhou Ming rolled up his sleeves and began to work hard.

Soon, as the afternoon passed, Zhou Ming's footsteps became more and more heavy, and many blood blisters appeared on his palms. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, gritted his teeth, and moved the last few bricks to the side of the elevator before dark. , and then told the person in charge of the construction that he had finished moving.

The person in charge of the construction checked the results of Zhou Ming's work, nodded slightly and said: "Okay, young man, you have passed the trial, come to work tomorrow, remember to be early!"

"Thank you boss! I will come over soon."

Zhou Ming let out a long sigh of relief. A brick mover on the construction site is the most suitable job for him at present, because a brick mover must meet the brick needs of several buildings at the same time. The labor intensity is very high, and the working hours are long. Normal people It is difficult to work for three days in a row, so there is not a fixed person for each brick mover on each construction site, and the wages are settled on a daily basis, more than 300 per day, which is most suitable for those who have strength and want to make some quick money.

Zhou Ming also stayed on the construction site for a few days before, and he couldn't hold on for at most two days. Now because he used three strength cards, his strength and endurance are much better than before, and he can hold on a little longer.

"Just work on this construction site for ten or so days, and save three to four thousand yuan, so that you don't have to come out to do this kind of work in the future."
