Chapter 17 You Died Again
Halfway through his thoughts, Zhu Xianhai couldn't help but curse the decadence of capitalism. It was because of the environment that such absurd thoughts came into his mind. He was a young man who grew up in the new century and would never have such evil thoughts.
"It's all because of that damn system..."
…
The next moment, Zhu Xianhai was stunned.
An interface appeared in front of him.
It went so smoothly that I almost forgot the system existed.
"Hey, hello, how are you doing with our business now?"
Zhu Xianhai said proudly.
The system ignored him and was proud of himself for nothing.
"Do you want to enable life simulation?"
Faced with the choice of "yes" or "no", Zhu Xianhai hesitated a little. After all, this little thing always gave him a scare... He didn't know what life simulation was, but simulating reincarnation was definitely a great experience!
Suddenly, Zhu Xianhai's eyes lit up.
“Is there a limit on the number of times the simulator can be used?”
"Current experience value: 600, junior member, can simulate three times per month."
As expected, the simulator has certain limitations, and junior members...
I thought that I had only just started, but I was already at the junior member level. Could I possibly level up and fight monsters?
Zhu Xianhai couldn't help but feel full of anticipation. Should he give it a try?
"There are only three chances a month!"
Today is...October 1st.
For a moment, Zhu Xianhai hesitated a little.
For a time traveler who has experienced the importance of plug-ins, the biggest tragedy is not that the plug-ins for this month have been used up, but that he does not know when to use the plug-ins.
After all, life in the simulator can help you avoid too many risks.
What if I waste this opportunity and end up with nothing to gain?
"Sir, are we going home, or?"
When Zhu Xianhai was hesitating , the coachman on the roadside whispered, "The carriage belongs to Buffett and he is in London now."
"go home."
After getting on the carriage and sitting down, Zhu Xianhai knocked on the roof with his cane, "dong, dong", and the carriage started off.
"Come once a month, safety is guaranteed..."
…
"system!"
There is no clear answer.
Just the familiar interface and familiar text.
[Avoid potential life risks, experience points increased by 100. Found Helen Pharmacy, assets increased...]
[Do you want to proceed to the next stage of simulation?]
Without any hesitation, Zhu Xianhai nodded "yes".
"Please go to sleep and enter the next stage of simulation!"
What is a dream and what is reality.
It's unclear in the simulator.
In the following simulation, time flies. Just as Zhu Xianhai expected, his inventions of "Liqingsong" and aspirin opened up the European drug market in a short time with their magical effects. Especially the former, it not only makes people more focused, but also makes people excited. It is no problem to work for 18 hours continuously, and workers don't even need to buy it. Many factory owners directly regard this medicine as "rations" for workers. Under their praise, European and American scholars and even called it "the greatest invention of this century" and "human beings have conquered fatigue and unhealthy since then."
In comparison, real drugs like aspirin have become insignificant, but it is certain that it has brought Zhu Xianhai a huge fortune and allowed him to live the life he always dreamed of.
Although he did not live in the mansion of his dreams, he lived in a palace-like manor outside Buenos Aires - that manor was as luxurious as Peter the Great's summer palace.
As a new rich man who earns millions a year and will soon become a multi-millionaire, and as a newly rich man, Zhu Xianhai was also a guest of President Urquiza. For this South American country, a "scientist" like him who has great inventions and is very rich is really too dazzling.
As expected, Zhu Xianhai also began to enjoy his life. Just as he had imagined, he was surrounded by a bunch of charming, energetic and colorful Latin girls.
Life seems to go on like this.
In 1861, 23-year-old Zhu Xianhai founded the La Plata Company, which would be the first modern textile company in Argentina. Many politicians, including President Urquiza, were shareholders of the company. Everyone believed that the magical Mr. Andrew would bring rich returns on their investment.
It was in September of that year that Mitre and others took advantage of Urquiza's absence from Buenos Aires for a meeting and suddenly launched a rebellion and seized power in Buenos Aires .
As a businessman, Zhu Xianhai never thought that one day a group of soldiers would rush into his manor. As soon as the soldiers rushed into the manor, they began to rob everywhere. In order to escape the soldiers, he could only flee the manor in a hurry, but he didn't run far before he encountered another group of soldiers.
Although he fought hard, Zhu Xianhai, who was not good at riding, escaped halfway amid a burst of gunfire, then fell off his horse. After being dragged by the horse for dozens of meters, the horse stopped and the rebel soldiers caught up with him.
Although he was knocked unconscious and his consciousness was a little fuzzy, Zhu Xianhai still vaguely saw the appearance of the officer leading the team. It was Major Matolo, who was Mitre's confidant. How could it be him?
"He's already dying!"
Major Matolo took one look and then said.
"That's exactly what the general needs. All right, you clean up the mess and say... well, it was Urquiza's fleeing soldiers who killed him."
…
When he woke up again, his whole body was sore. After simulating his memory, his body seemed to clearly feel the pain of being dragged by the horse and being shot.
"Hmm...Fuck..."
After taking a deep breath, Zhu Xianhai finally recovered. After adapting to the pain in his "memory", a few lines of words appeared on the interface.
[On September 21, 1861, you were 23 years old and died under the guns of the rebels. A month later, since you had no heirs, the new president Bartolomé Mitre announced that your shares, including the Helen Pharmacy, would be taken back by the state.]
[After your death, you were buried in the Cathedral Cemetery, with the inscription on your tombstone: "Here lies a great wise man."]
…
That's it……
Zhu Xianhai was dumbfounded. This time his fate changed again in the simulation.
He succeeded!
As a time traveler, he really achieved success and made a fortune with knowledge that was ahead of his time. Magnificent manors, charming Latin girls, fame and fortune, money and sex, this is the life a time traveler should live.
But unfortunately - he died again!
He only lived for one year.
As the saying goes, "Misfortunes often bring good fortune", one year... this is the longest record he has survived as a time traveler so far.
