Chapter 6
"This is a bit difficult." Jiang Qi said tactfully.

As a poor guy who was selected by a game system with a bank account balance of less than five figures, Jiang Qi said that the rent in a high-end community is too expensive for him to afford.

Old John didn't respond either, just nodded.

The bowl is empty.

"Any other needs?" Jiang Qi asked.

"I need a job." Old John glanced at Jiang Qi's empty bowl, "Do you have to finish the soup with this kind of noodles?"

"...It doesn't have to be."

Old John didn't drink the soup and sat quietly on the chair.

Jiang Qi didn't expect that the summoning card would summon a living person who needed to eat and drink. Jiang Qi first calculated his savings, and then secretly glanced at the details of Old John's card, and made a decision in his heart.

"I'll take you to buy some change of clothes later, you'll stay at my house for a few days, your phone..."

"I have." Old John took out his mobile phone from his pocket, not only the mobile phone but also his wallet, which contained a British ID card, a transport card and a few pounds.

I just don't know if this ID card can be used.

Jiang Qi took Old John's mobile phone and looked at it. It was a very old-fashioned blue-screen brick machine. Jiang Qi hadn't seen this type of mobile phone since he was in junior high school.It still works, Jiang Qi tried to make a call to himself with Old John's brick machine, and found that it was actually a domestic phone card.

I didn't expect this card system to be quite humane, and the phone cards for mobile phones do as the Romans do.

To save a lot of money by not buying a mobile phone, Jiang Qi returned the mobile phone to Old John, and then said: "I am currently the acting store manager of a script killing store, and you will be a store assistant for the time being, mainly responsible for the hygiene of the store. Just tell me directly, although it may not be possible.”

Like living in a rich neighborhood.

What Jiang Qi is more concerned about now is where Old John will live in the future.

His house is a large house with four bedrooms and two living rooms. He, Jiang Bing and his parents each have a room, and the other is a guest room.Now that Jiang Bing has gone out to escape reality, he will definitely not be able to come back in a short time. Jiang Qi's parents have been doing business abroad all year round and usually come back only during the Chinese New Year. Logically speaking, it is no problem for Old John to live for a few months.

The problem now is that Jiang Qi's sister-in-law and uncle will come to deliver food to Jiang Qi every now and then.

Jiang Qi has many relatives, including three uncles alone, and two uncles and one aunt in the family.Because of the early death of Jiang Qi's grandparents, Jiang Qi's father Jiang Xiaoliang, second uncle Jiang Xiaoguang and sister-in-law Jiang Xiaohong were all brought up by his uncle Jiang Xiaokang.

The eldest brother is like a father, and Jiang Xiaokang is both a father and a mother. He brought up his younger siblings. When he was young, he had no money to marry to support his younger siblings. He only married his wife when he was in his 30s. As a result, his only daughter, Jiang Wanwan, was even younger than Jiang Qi. one year old.It is precisely because of this that Jiang Qi's uncle and aunt have a very close relationship. As long as they have to get together during the New Year in a city, they will go to Jiang Xiaokang's house for a New Year's Eve dinner together every New Year.

Jiang Qi's father, Jiang Xiaoliang, is a rare cultural person among the Jiang family's peers. Compared with his uncle Jiang Xiaokang who studied a few words in elementary school for a year, his second uncle Jiang Xiaoguang went south to work after graduating from elementary school for two years. As an apprentice for others, Jiang Xiaoliang was undoubtedly a Wenqu star who graduated from technical secondary school and was assigned to a timber factory.

It's just that this Wenqu star's road to earth is a bit bumpy.

Jiang Qi's biological mother, Qiao Huifang, was an accountant at the timber factory back then, and also graduated from a technical secondary school. She met and married Jiang Xiaoming personally, and they can be regarded as a model couple that everyone admires.

Then the timber factory closed down, and the couple were laid off.At that time, Qiao Huifang was still pregnant with Jiang Bing. When the couple was the poorest, they had to go to the eldest brother's house to borrow rice, the second brother's house to borrow bowls, and the father-in-law's house to borrow coal balls to survive.

It is said that when Jiang Bing was born, his family was so poor that they could not even make a sound. When Jiang Bing was a child, he had no milk powder and could only drink rice cereal.Seeing his wife and children living like this, Jiang Xiaoliang gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble. He found a relationship with his former colleague and went to Nanyang with his former colleague to do timber business.

At first, Jiang Xiaoliang worked for his boss. Later, he saved some money and started working on his own. He made a lot of money. Although he didn't become a rich man, he could still be called a small rich man.When Jiang Qi was ten years old, Jiang Xiaoliang wanted to bet on turning a big bicycle into a motorcycle, but he lost the bet and almost went bankrupt. If it weren't for the help of his brothers and sisters, Jiang Xiaoliang would have been on the rooftop that year.

From then on, Jiang Xiaoliang came to his senses, earning hard money by doing his own small business honestly. Seeing that her two children had grown up, Qiao Huifang went into business with Jiang Xiaoliang.Although Jiang Qi and Jiang Bing's parents were not around since they were young, they were treated badly.

Jiang Xiaokang transferred the care he had shown his younger brother over the years to his nephew and niece. Jiang Xiaohong admired the younger brother who studied well since he was a child, and he also cared most about Jiang Qi and Jiang Bing.Like Jiang Xiaoliang, Jiang Xiaoguang works in the coastal area all year round and only comes back after the Chinese New Year, so he always pays special attention to the younger generation in his family, and buys and sends back any new things.In addition, Cao Yongjun, the upstairs neighbor of Jiang Qi's house, is an old colleague of Jiang Xiaoliang and his wife, so he naturally takes good care of the siblings.

At their peak, the siblings ate five meals a day and were always dragged home to eat by the elders who thought they had nothing to eat.

Jiang Xiaoliang had foresight and had seen through early in the morning that the house price would definitely rise.Not only did I buy a house early, but I also persuaded my brother and sister to lend them money to buy a house together. Because of this, the few families lived very close together.

Even if Jiang Qi and Jiang Bing are grown up now, my sister-in-law and uncle will habitually cook good dishes and send them over.

So now the question is, if Old John lives at home, how should he explain it to his relatives?

If he rented a single room for Old John, Jiang Qi worried that his poor wallet would not be able to bear it.

Jiang Qi was in a tangle.

Old John may have seen Jiang Qi's entanglement, and said, "I can live anywhere."

"It's okay to sleep on the street."

Jiang Qi: ...

That doesn't have to be...

Summoned people from the card to do white jobs for themselves, and as a result, they didn't even arrange the place where they lived to let a 60-[-]-year-old man sleep on the street.

What would happen to him if he did this, wouldn't he become a black-hearted capitalist like Jiang Bing who wholeheartedly oppressed his employees?
"Stay at my house first."

It is really impossible to find a cheap single room in the community and rent it out, and the price is three or four hundred a month, which can be afforded in a short period of time.

If the follow-up tasks of the game are paid, it is not impossible to support a living person.

The community where Jiang Qi's family is located has been around for a certain period of time. There are no prosperous business districts around, and all facilities are relatively outdated. There is only one elementary school around, and the rent has always been very cheap.

After planning, Jiang Qi got up and took Old John to the store to see his working environment in the future.The upper and lower floors add up to a store of nearly [-] square meters, and it would be a lot of work to clean it carefully.

Jiang Qi led Old John to the store, but Liu Lan was still the only one in the store.

Seeing Jiang Qi coming, Liu Lan wanted to ask him what he was doing when he ran out suddenly, but he was stunned when he saw the old John behind Jiang Qi.

"Is this... a guest who came to play with Ben?" Liu Lan asked uncertainly, "Hello?"

Jiang Qi pretended to be stupid: "He came to our store to apply for cleaning. His name is John, and his Chinese is very good."

"She is Liu Lan, and she is also a clerk in our store." Jiang Qi introduced Liu Lan to Old John.

Old John nodded to Liu Lan.

Liu Lan: ?
Is the store already rich enough to hire full-time cleaning?

But why a foreigner?

Just when Liu Lan was full of doubts, Old John had already found cleaning tools and started cleaning the shop, proving his profession and professionalism by himself.

"He is a foreign teacher in my university. He has just resigned. He is engaged in art. He used to be the instructor of the drama club. My university is a drama club, so he is very familiar with him. He is very good at Chinese and likes to clean up for inspiration. , just apply to be a cleaner by the way." Jiang Qi had already thought up nonsense on the way back to the shop.

"Very professional, he's been finding inspiration this way for decades."

Liu Lan, who also majored in art, was greatly shocked.

Before Liu Lan could react, Jiang Qi quickly changed the subject: "I remember you said earlier that next Monday there will be a car of guests making an appointment for the "Mask Club" tonight."

"Yes." Liu Lan nodded.

"I've almost read Little John's book, and I've also read a bit of the host's handbook. I think I'll be able to finish reading the whole book today. You said before that you want me to act in the deduction. What do you want to act in?"

"Oh, just recall the content on the card." Speaking of business, Liu Lan has no time to think about how a university teacher has such a strange hobby of being a cleaner.

"If you open the deduction version, you don't need to send all those memory cards to the player. Just like John's six cards, except for the last and biggest one that learned about Old John's death, all the others can be changed into deduction effects will be better."

"That's true." Jiang Qi fell into deep thought. Now that the real old John has been summoned by him, it would be a waste of money not to let Old John act in his true colors.

"It's like this, Mr. John, he hasn't been looking for inspiration recently. He has been sweeping the streets for several months to no avail. When he was in our drama club, he liked to play some roles to help him find inspiration. He will come to our store to apply for cleaning I also heard that the script killer can act. Isn’t the role of Old John very suitable for him? Foreigner, age is also very suitable, why don’t I discuss with him and let him try to play Old John, and it will be convenient for him to find inspiration.”

Liu Lan looked at Old John following Jiang Qi's words, his eyes became brighter the more he looked, and he said excitedly: "Really!"

"Jiang Qi, I think it's very suitable for you to say that."

Liu Lan stared at Old John with bright eyes: "If this can be performed, the players who take the John book will cry to death. Oh my god, it's fun to think about it."

Jiang Qi: ?
What kind of bad taste are you doing?
