Rebirth starts with small money

Chapter 339 The "Sister" I Haven't Seen in Almost 30 Years

"Receive it?"

"Receive it?"

The system prompt in Chen Li's mind was constantly flashing, this was actually the first time.

In the past, even if the system issued promotion tasks, it was never so "urgent".

So. Is the system in a hurry?

Hmm~ I hope the system is not in a hurry because Chen Li said that he will not exchange items from the system mall in the future.

Well~ In fact, Chen Li estimates that this possibility is not great!

According to what Chen Li thought, the system was really a little anxious this time, and this anxiety was not the apparent threat in Chen Li's previous words.

More, it may come from Chen Li's "recognition" of the system!
After all, Chen Li said that he regarded the system as a friend, but the system cheated him, which is somewhat unreasonable.

If the system's character is an old and cunning "profiteer", then Chen Li probably wouldn't bother to play such a show with the system.

But the system gave Chen Li the feeling that he was more like a young girl whose mind was not very mature.

Uh~ Because the voice of the system is a female voice, Chen Li subconsciously thinks it should be a little girl.

And this kind of immature little girl is easier to fool.

This flicker does not mean blindly "licking", this thing also needs to pay attention to methods.

Appropriately vent some small emotions and let the other party feel your "anger", which is actually more conducive to getting along harmoniously in the future!

After all, the system, if nothing else happens, should always exist!
So relatively speaking, Chen Li hopes that what he has is a "sincere" system.

As the system explained before, the system is here to assist Chen Li to live a better life, since it is an assistant, there must be an assistant.

In fact, Chen Li didn't realize a problem. When he played tricks on the system, he subconsciously anthropomorphized the system!

No~ It can even be said that it is not anthropomorphic. Chen Li is really treating the system as a real "person".

And this is the reason why the system has been unable to give a response.

Because human "emotion" is too difficult to calculate, if you want to calculate this kind of human thinking purely with computing power, even the system has spent a lot of effort, but it has not yet drawn any accurate conclusions.

In the end~ the system chose the possibility with the highest probability, which was Chen Li's approval!

"Receive it?"

"Receive it?"

The task status was still flickering, and finally Chen Li chose to accept it.

"receive!"

For Chen Li, receiving is a must.

After all, he has been "bound" to the system a long time ago, and it is impossible to turn against the system!

Today's Chen Li has long been accustomed to the existence of the system, so it is the wisest choice to accept it as soon as it is good.

And as Chen Li chose to accept the task, the status of the task turned into completed!

"The task is completed, the host accepted the system's apology, congratulations to the host for winning five lucky draw opportunities, and the credit rating has been raised to level two."

"I'll wipe it!"

Chen Li was a little dazed. He originally thought that this task would require a cutscene, such as improving his acting skills.

The result surprised Chen Li. As soon as he took over the task, the task was completed immediately, and the reward was immediately obtained.

This is not right!

However, after reading the system prompts, Chen Li understood that if he dared to accept this task, it meant that Chen Li accepted the system's apology, so he got the task reward directly!

"Uh~!"

Chen Li was a little speechless. To be honest, it would be great if the promotion tasks of the system were as simple as this. He wouldn't have been stuck for so long and only completed 1/2 of a promotion task.

The task is completed and the reward is in hand, but the play that should be performed still needs to be performed.

"System~ What I need is not these rewards, but your apology."

At this moment, Chen Li focused his attention on the rewards issued by the system, and then... curled his lips!

These task rewards given by the system are actually not bad, but these five lucky draw opportunities make Chen Li feel a bit pained!
Five lucky draw chances are actually [-] mall coins.

Chen Li had played the system's lottery roulette many times, with a price of [-] mall coins, but he had never drawn anything good.

Since the appearance of this lottery roulette, Chen Li has spent nearly [-] mall currency here one after another.

Before each draw, Chen Li felt that he would probably win the big prize this time, especially since the lottery system had never given any good things, Chen Li always felt that he should be able to win the next time.

However, after drawing nearly 5 times one after another, except for the empty thank you for your patronage, Chen Li has drawn a total of [-] items.

And these five items, without exception, are all recipes.

Uh~ That's right, it's the kind of formula that is clearly priced at [-] mall coins each.

Uh~ Well, there is actually a rather precious formula, worth as much as five hundred mall coins.

That thing is a formula for medicinal wine, but the main ingredient is no longer found.

To make medicinal wine according to this recipe, Chen Li had to be prepared to go in and squat for a few years.

Therefore, Chen Li had long since given up on the system's lottery system.

Five chances to draw a lottery are meaningless, and [-] mall coins will not take a few days for Chen Li today.

As for the latter credit rating, it is a bit interesting. His previous credit rating was level one, and his credit limit was 100 million mall currency.

Now it has been upgraded to level 500, and the credit line has suddenly increased to [-] million.

For Chen Li, this is somewhat useful, because Chen Li's current mall currency is not enough to exchange for the items he wants.

Moreover, he still owes the system 100 million mall currency, and now he has a lot of interest that needs to be handed over to the system every month.

This is also the reason why Chen Li couldn't wait to develop Ideal Fried Chicken. He had to let the Ideal Fried Chicken chain reach a certain scale quickly, because only in this way would he be able to save some points after returning the interest of the system. principal.

As for the 350 safety suit that he originally planned to exchange, Chen Li didn't plan to exchange it now, and he didn't have that many mall currencies.

He was thinking that when the fried chicken shop grew in size, he would be able to save money in the mall every month at a much faster rate, so that in a few months, he would be able to exchange for a 350 security system.

Now that the credit limit has been upgraded, Chen Li saved this step.

Hmm~ Not bad, Chen Li is a little satisfied with this reward.

I have to say~ This way of spending tomorrow's money today is really addictive.

Chen Li had vowed before that he would not use the credit line of the system mall, but now... he wished the system would give him a little more credit so that he could exchange for more useful items.

If one word were used to describe Chen Li at this moment, it would probably be
"It's so fragrant~!"

Well~ Now that the reward is in hand, Chen Li has also started the final "performance"!
Just when Chen Li was going to continue to put on a show, an operation of the system made Chen Li stunned.

"Is the host sure you want to give up these task rewards and choose to accept the system's apology?"

"If you choose the system's apology, then these task rewards will be recycled."

"Hi~!"

Chen Li almost burst out with foul language at that time. Fortunately, he thought that the system AI looked like a little girl before, but now... what kind of little girl is this, she is obviously a troublesome little fairy.

Chen Li felt a little ashamed, so he decided to be tough.

"Hmph~! I don't care about these task rewards at all."

"Where are these mission rewards? It's just that you feel a little unreasonable in the system and want to use these to block my mouth."

"I, Chen Li, am I the kind of person who can be bought with a little favor?"

The above few sentences Chen Li said were righteous, but then he changed the subject.

"But... as a friend of the system, I know it's not easy for you to step down if you do this."

"So I decided to give you a step down!"

"I accepted the task reward, not because I care about these things, but because I think that if I accept these things, our relationship will become more harmonious, so... I choose to accept!"

"Cough~ what, I think there is still something to do, so I will withdraw first."

After speaking, Chen Li exited the system space.

After a long while, a voice that seemed to be muttering or whispering appeared in the system space.

"The human mind is indeed too complex."

But maybe the system blocked Chen Li, and Chen Li didn't hear this sentence.

Although Chen Li left in a hurry, even in a panic, he was right in saying that he still had things to do.

This matter was not a big deal, but Chen Li was going to meet a relative.

In fact, to be precise, this person and Chen Li are not real relatives, even if they were counted, they would have already released the fifth server!

Today is the first day of the May Day holiday. Originally, Chen Li arranged to take his girlfriend out on this day.

But Chen Li's Ms. Liu has recently become Liu Xueba. Even during the May Day holiday, Ms. Liu chose to continue charging.

Chen Li originally wanted to persuade Liu Qingqing to pay attention to the balance between work and rest, but in the end, Liu Xueba dismissed him by saying, "We still have a long time to get along with each other, but now the final exam is not far away."

Miss Liu has her own ideas, and Chen Li also respects her ideas very much.

Even Chen Li felt that it was better to let Miss Liu take the initiative to participate in her own life than to think about it every day.

And isn't it just for studying~ Chen Li can still go to Yanda University to accompany her.

As for playing. I'm really in no hurry!
Just like what Liu Qingqing said, they still have a lifetime to live~ There is no rush for this May Day holiday!
After confirming the arrangement, Chen Li decided to deal with some things that had been shelved before.

For example, sister Xiaomei who has been urged by Chen Li's mother three times.

Sister Xiaomei, whose full name is Wang Xiaomei, is the daughter of Chen Li's fourth cousin.

But this fourth cousin actually has a rather weak relationship with Chen Li's family.

This fourth cousin is actually from Wangjia Village.

Wangjia Village is neither big nor small. Almost all the people in the village have the surname Wang, and almost all of them are relatives.

Of course ~ this kind of kinship is meaningless, the key is to look at the specific relationship.

Chen Li basically had no impression of this fourth cousin.On the contrary, Chen Li's mother, as a member of Wang Family Village, knew him well.

But it's limited to acquaintance. Generally speaking, every time Wang Dongmei returns to the village, if she meets Wang Dongmei, she will probably ask "Have you eaten yet?"

Even during the Spring Festival, Chen Li would not go to the fourth cousin's house to pay New Year's greetings, and he had never received lucky money from the fourth cousin.

There is nothing strange about this kind of relationship, because if you really want to calculate it, almost the whole Wangjiacun and Chen Li have such a relationship.

The only difference is that this fourth cousin has a daughter, Wang Xiaomei.

This Wang Xiaomei used to take care of Chen Li when Chen Li was young.

Yes~ When Chen Li returned to Wangjiashan when he was a child, this sister Xiaomei often took Chen Li, who was still a kid at that time, all over the mountain.

But in fact, Chen Li's impression of this sister Xiaomei is very light, so light that he hardly remembers what she looks like.

He only vaguely remembered that sister Xiaomei always wore a braid, and basically couldn't remember the rest.

This is not to blame for Chen Li's poor memory~!

In the previous life, Chen Li didn't make a fortune, so the fourth cousin in the previous life actually had nothing to do with the Chen family.

And after Chen Li's grandmother passed away in the previous life, Chen Li hardly ever went back to Wangjiashan. Even if he went back, he would just have a meal at his aunt and uncle's house, and he would return to Erlong Town on the same day.

As for this life~ when Chen Li was reborn, this sister Xiaomei had already gone out to work, and even when she came back during the Spring Festival, she hadn't met face to face because the relationship between the two families was only average.

So Chen Li and this sister Xiaomei, I think they haven't seen each other for 30 to [-] years!
Well~ This is the sum of the previous and present lives!

After not seeing each other for such a long time, Chen Li can still remember that the other party's braids are actually pretty good.

However~ all this changed after Chen Li's "rise" last year.

On New Year's Eve, Chen Li received a call from the man who claimed to be his fourth cousin.

At that time, Chen Li just exchanged some polite words with the other party, and then handed over the phone to his mother.

Later, I learned from my mother that sister Xiaomei, who was said to have taken him as a child, was working in Yanjing.

And it's not difficult to guess the purpose of this fourth cousin's call. Who made the current Chen get a haircut?
In fact, there are quite a few people like Chen Li, the "fourth cousin", but the others are not in Yanjing, and Chen Li is easier to refuse.

But this sister Xiaomei is different. One is that the fourth cousin has a thicker skin, but this Wang Xiaomei is in Yanjing City, so it is probably not easy for Ms. Wang to refuse, so she pushed the matter to Chen Li. .

This kind of matter might be difficult for others to solve, but it is not that complicated for Chen Li.

It's just a job, or a not-so-complicated job, who should I do it for?
It doesn't matter whether it's relatives or strangers who are out of reach, as long as they are willing to work hard, Chen Li is willing to pay the other party a salary.

If the work is done well, it's okay for Chen Li to be promoted!
But to Chen Li's surprise, when he returned to Yanjing and contacted this sister Xiaomei who wanted to meet her, the other party refused Chen Li's meeting on the grounds that she was busy with work and had no time to meet her.

At that time, Chen Li didn't think there was anything wrong, he just made an appointment and waited for Miss Xiaomei to come down.

But Chen Li was busy at that time, so he forgot about it all at once, and that sister Xiaomei never contacted Chen Li.

Neither Chen Li nor Wang Xiaomei contacted each other, but Chen Li's fourth cousin kept contacting Chen Li's mother.

Then Chen Li's mother called Chen Li again, and Chen Li was also very helpless~ he had no choice but to contact this sister Xiaomei.

This time, Chen Li was still rejected, and the reason was still not clear, and now Chen Li was very angry.

Although he, Chen Li, is not a big shot, isn't this Wang Xiaomei's airs too big?

After Chen Li was rejected, he called the fourth cousin directly. He was not polite, and directly told the fourth cousin what happened, and then he was very angry.

Uh~ Yes, it is yin and yang.

Chen Li's temper is actually not bad, but it's not as good as imagined. He was rejected twice in a row, so Chen Li was naturally unhappy.

Originally, Chen Li thought that this was the end of the matter, but just before the May Day holiday, Chen Li received a call from that sister Xiaomei, who sincerely apologized to Chen Li.

This matter was not serious in the first place, and Chen Li didn't take it too seriously.

But this time it was Wang Xiaomei who invited Chen Li to meet, and Chen Li naturally planned to refuse at that time.

In fact, he had already done so, but Ms. Wang called again, urging Chen Li to meet this sister Xiaomei.

Moreover, Ms. Wang also told Chen Li some things, and it was precisely because of these things that Chen Li finally changed his mind and agreed to meet Xiaomei, whom he hadn't seen for "two or thirty years".

Chen Li drove the van of the fried chicken shop and arrived at the appointed place.

This is a restaurant, very close to where Wang Xiaomei lives. It's not a high-end restaurant, but a pretty good small restaurant.

"Wait a minute, I still have a friend who hasn't arrived."

Chen Li found a seat and sat down, dismissed the waiter who came to order, then took out his mobile phone and called Wang Xiaomei's pager again.

Originally, Chen Li thought that Wang Xiaomei would find a public phone to call him back like before, but what he never expected was that his cell phone rang within less than 2 minutes after the paging.

And according to the caller ID, it was a mobile phone number starting with 130.

At that time, Chen Li thought it was someone else calling him, but when the call was connected, he realized that the call was actually from Wang Xiaomei.

And as Chen Li got on the phone, Wang Xiaomei's voice rang from the microphone of Chen Li's mobile phone and the door of the small restaurant at the same time.

Before Chen Li had time to think about it carefully, he answered subconsciously while looking towards the restaurant entrance.

"I heard your voice, I'm at table 5 eh~5!"

Chen Li's tone obviously paused, because at this moment he had seen the sister Xiaomei whom he hadn't seen for almost 30 or [-] years.

Beautiful facial features are paired with exquisite makeup, and the slim figure is wrapped in a black lace dress. The heels of the pair of high-heeled shoes on the feet are estimated to be close to ten centimeters.

What surprised Chen Li the most was that the only braid he had some impression of had disappeared, replaced by a big wave.

In all fairness, Wang Xiaomei's attire was absolutely amazing at this time in [-].

The combination of reasonable outfits and cosmetics allowed Wang Xiaomei, who was originally only seven points in appearance, to directly integrate to nine points.

This made Wang Xiaomei look not at all like someone who walked out of the valley of Wangjiashan, but rather like a rich and famous lady born and raised in Yanjing.

But it's a pity. The term celebrity is not a good word for Chen Li.

As Chen Li who had been in nightclubs for many years in his previous life, he could smell a strange yet familiar smell from this "sister", who could be regarded as half a relative.

Reminiscent of the things his mother told him to observe, Chen Li couldn't help but have some guesses.

"No wonder you didn't want to see me before, it turned out to be like this!"

Chen Li sighed secretly, but still waved at the other party with a smile on his face.

Wang Xiaomei looked over, with a happy smile on her face, and trotted a few steps, the high heels that were close to ten centimeters were like flat shoes on her feet.

When she came to him, Wang Xiaomei first looked at Chen Li, and even stretched out her hand to make a gesture.

"Ah~ Xiaoli, I haven't seen you for many years, but you have grown so tall!"
