Volume 5: Twenty Undoubted Chapter 372: Twenty Million Taels of Gold
After dinner, Yuan Xudong accompanied Liang Shuang and the others back to school. In the afternoon, they took graduation photos and said goodbye to their counselors and classmates. Liang Shuang, Luo Yan, Duan Jiabao, and Jiang Xiaoguo returned to the dormitory and began to pack their books and belongings, preparing to leave school and bid farewell to their youthful years as students. After packing their luggage and looking at the empty dormitory again, Jiang Xiaoguo took out her phone and took videos to keep as a souvenir:
"Today is our last day in the dormitory. All the luggage is packed. Hey, who is this?"
Jiang Xiaoguo moved a few steps to the side, pointed the camera of his mobile phone at Duan Jiabao and said:
"I'm not used to seeing Dabao's desk empty!"
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo who was filming a video, and Duan Jiabao and Liang Shuang who were cleaning, Luo Yan leaned against her bed, glanced at the empty dormitory again and sighed:
"Hey, do you think this looks like when we first moved in as freshmen?"
"Don't tell me it's true!"
Jiang Xiaoguo held up her phone and took pictures of the surroundings while interrupting with a smile:
"It feels a bit like traveling back to when I first moved into the dormitory as a freshman. Every year when school starts, I always feel like, oh my god, there's still a whole year to go. It's so long. In the blink of an eye, four years have passed. Now when I see these, I feel a bit like I've traveled back to my freshman year. If it really happens again..."
"Oh, please don't!"
Before Jiang Xiaoguo could finish, Liang Shuang beside her interrupted her and said with a smile:
"I finally made friends with everyone, I don't want to start over again!"
“Haha~~”
Seeing the previously arrogant Liang Shuang become like this now, so interesting, several girls laughed together, Luo Yan smiled and said:
"So many things have happened this year. I can't imagine what will happen in the future!"
"yes!"
After filming the video and putting away the phone, Jiang Xiaoguo leaned on the edge of his bed and said reluctantly:
"I'm so reluctant to do this. Look, I'm not willing to tear it up yet!"
As he spoke, Jiang Xiaoguo tore off a list of wishes written on the wall in front of his desk beside his bed. Luo Yan smiled and said:
“Isn’t this the same wish list you made your freshman year?”
"yes!"
"Let me see, I don't see you hooking up with many?"
“How many can you complete?”
“Let me see!”
Taking the wish list from Jiang Xiaoguo, Luo Yan smiled and read:
"First, successfully become a full-time employee, second, become an outstanding graduate, third, buy my first brand-name bag in life, fourth, have a passionate love affair, fifth, write five more articles with 100,000 views, sixth, bring my mother to Shenzhen for a trip, seventh, buy a pair of high heels that fit, eighth, break up, ninth, learn to play a musical instrument, tenth, maintain my weight, eleventh, party for three days with my roommates!"
"Xiaoguo, you can do it. In addition to writing five more articles with 100,000 views, learning a musical instrument, and partying with your roommates for three days, you have fulfilled all other wishes. Excellent!"
"sharp!"
Duan Jiabao took the wish list from Luo Yan and said with a smile:
"Let me see what I can accomplish. Buy a bag, buy a pair of high heels, and keep my weight down!"
"How do you maintain your weight?"
Jiang Xiaoguo took out a pair of large black glasses with thin frames from somewhere and put them on her nose. She slightly widened her eyes and looked at Duan Jiabao and smiled:
"You gain two pounds every year and you still maintain your weight. Are you ashamed of yourself?"
"Isn't that nice?"
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo who was teasing him, Duan Jiabao said confidently:
"I keep it steady every year, steadily gaining two pounds!"
“That’s stable enough!”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Duan Jiabao returned the wish list to Jiang Xiaoguo. Looking at the wishes he had made, Jiang Xiaoguo smiled and said:
"Look, this one person can only hook so many times, but if these four people hook together, it will instantly become a lot!"
Looking at Luo Yan, Duan Jiabao, and Jiang Xiaoguo, Liang Shuang smiled and said:
"It's too lonely to be alone, it's more wonderful when the four of us are together!"
"yes!"
Looking at Jiang Xiaoguo's wish list, especially the last wish that had not been checked, "Party with roommates for three days", Luo Yan said with some regret:
“But this can’t be accomplished by partying for three days with my roommates!”
"That's youth. There's always a little regret left!"
Duan Jiabao said with a smile.
"Youth can also be without regrets!"
Liang Shuang put his arm around Duan Jiabao's shoulder and said with a smile:
"When there is a chance in the future, such as on weekends, traditional holidays, etc., we can make an appointment to go out and play together!"
“Yes, yes, yes!”
“This is good!”
“Ahhh~~”
“Haha~~”
…
As night fell, Jiang Xiaoguo, Duan Jiabao, Luo Yan, and Liang Shuang each dragged a suitcase and left the girls' dormitory. Yuan Xudong drove to wait for them downstairs of the girls' dormitory. After everyone gathered together, because Duan Jiabao was going to participate in a volunteer activity that evening, Yuan Xudong first sent her to the long-distance bus station. After a while of farewell, Jiang Xiaoguo and the others watched Duan Jiabao and other volunteers get on the bus.
"Duan Jiabao, we'll be waiting for you to come back. Bye!"
"Got it. When I come back, you all have to be well. Bye!"
"Duan Jiabao, remember to lose weight!"
"Go away, I don't want to lose weight!"
"Bye-Bye!"
"Bye-Bye!"
…
The bus drove away, Duan Jiabao also left. Yuan Xudong took the somewhat disappointed Jiang Xiaoguo, Luo Yan, and Liang Shuang back to the apartment he bought in the Overseas Chinese Town community. He pushed the suitcase into the living room and looked at the luxurious and elegantly decorated high-end apartment. Jiang Xiaoguo and Luo Yan felt a little uncomfortable and said:
"I, let's go back first!"
"Yes, we'll go back first. See you tomorrow!"
"Why are you in such a hurry to go back?"
Stopping Jiang Xiaoguo and Luo Yan from leaving, Yuan Xudong washed some fruits and put them on the coffee table in the living room. Then he asked Luo Yan, Jiang Xiaoguo, and Liang Shuang to sit next to him and said:
"Starting tomorrow, I'm going to go abroad and may have to stay there for a while. So tonight is a good time for us to discuss our future affairs, okay?"
After listening to Yuan Xudong, Liang Shuang frowned slightly and said:
"Okay, so what are you going to do abroad? Which country? Is it far?"
"For business, the main destinations are the United States, the Sun Country, India, and a few countries in Europe. I'll just look around!"
"Are you going here for business or sightseeing?"
Looking up at Yuan Xudong, Jiang Xiaoguo curled her lips and said:
"So many countries, you're almost traveling around the world, how come I didn't know your business was so big?"
"You're the only one who talks too much, right?"
“Woo woo~~”
Rolling his eyes at Jiang Xiaoguo who was making faces and sticking out her tongue at him, Yuan Xudong looked at Liang Shuang and Luo Yan who had been sitting on the sofa with her head down, rubbing her hands, and not saying a word, and smiled:
"Xiao Shuang, Shitou, what do you two think?"
"What?"
Looking up at Yuan Xudong, Luo Yan blushed slightly and said:
"What do you think?"
"that is!"
Glancing at Yuan Xudong, Liang Shuang crossed his arms, leaned back on the sofa and hummed:
"Speak clearly, what do you want to say?"
"All right!"
After taking a deep breath and looking at Jiang Xiaoguo, Luo Yan, and Liang Shuang who were also looking at him, Yuan Xudong said directly:
"Well, I calculated the date and asked the doctor. It's about two months before you give birth. As the biological father of the child, I think I need to take responsibility. What I mean is, can you live under the same roof? In this way, it will be convenient for me to take care of you. What do you think?"
"Bah, you rascal!"
“Obscene !”
“Shameless!”
"Forget it if you don't agree!"
Looking at Liang Shuang, Duan Jiabao, and Luo Yan, who were frowning, blushing, and greeting him warmly, Yuan Xudong smiled awkwardly and said:
"Okay, it's so late, you guys can each find a room to rest, I'll go sleep outside, okay?"
"Go away, go away quickly, I'm annoyed just by seeing you!"
Liang Shuang waved his hands and said impatiently.
"Okay, then I'm leaving!"
Having said that, Yuan Xudong stood up from the sofa and walked outside.
…
After leaving the apartment, Yuan Xudong drove to another property. In the room, after closing the doors and windows and drawing the curtains, Yuan Xudong began to experiment with the dimensional space, the origin of the world, and the power of a mind transmitter given to him by the system!
First of all, it was the dimensional space. Everything in the room could be stored and retrieved at will with just a thought. In Yuan Xudong's mind, in the boundless dark space, there was a transparent cube emitting a faint fluorescence. The side was more than four meters long. Everything stored was in the cube. With a thought, the relevant information of the transparent cube appeared in Yuan Xudong's mind:
Name: Dimensional Space
Volume: 100 cubic meters
Note: The system provides an initial dimensional space of 100 cubic meters, which can be upgraded without a limit. Each upgrade increases the volume by 10 times. Every 100 cubic meters consumes 100 points of world origin. Objects whose volume exceeds the remaining available volume of the dimensional space cannot be stored. Each storage and withdrawal requires a certain amount of spiritual power.
As far as the eye can see, with the self as the origin, within a space with a radius of ten meters, marble tables, bed sheets, pots and pans, and even a pot of cactus can be stored and taken out at will. Yuan Xudong also tested it with a mosquito. If it was quickly stored and taken out, the mosquito was still alive. If it was stored and taken out again after a period of time, the mosquito died. He put the mosquito into an empty mineral water bottle and tried it again. The mosquito did not die after the same amount of time.
Yuan Xudong came to a rough conclusion that living things can be put into the dimensional space. If provided with enough oxygen and survival resources, they should be able to live for a long time in it. On a whim, Yuan Xudong also did an experiment on himself. He could actually put himself into the dimensional space, and then take himself out. He personally experienced the feeling of suffocation like drowning. At this moment, Yuan Xudong was extremely excited. This dimensional space is simply the most amazing artifact with endless uses!
After trying to use the dimensional space, Yuan Xudong turned to study the origin of the world. Because he didn't know how and how difficult it was to obtain, Yuan Xudong just asked the system silently and didn't use it recklessly. He concluded that the origin of the world was equivalent to a very special currency, which could be exchanged for all reasonable things or services in the system. For example, one point of world origin could be exchanged for one kilogram of gold or ten kilograms of silver. However, no matter how much world origin you have, you can't exchange it to kill river crabs, or make yourself the only one in the world, because the system can't do it at all. It only provides exchanges within its capabilities.
In addition, the exchange of the world origin is one-way. For example, you can use a little world origin to exchange for one kilogram of gold, or ten kilograms of silver. However, if you want to exchange it in reverse, there is no such option at all. You can only obtain the world origin by completing the walking tasks issued by the system. This shows its preciousness!
Finally, there is the power of mind transmitter given to Yuan Xudong by the system, which is linked to the origin of the world. It is more like a power service that needs to be purchased to use. Each use consumes at least one point of world origin. During the transmission process, one point of world origin is consumed for every ton of material transmitted for 10,000 kilometers. The consumed world origin is calculated according to the method of adding up, and any less than one point will be calculated as one point.
The system will permanently record the coordinates of the space within a radius of ten kilometers with the walker as the origin. As long as the space coordinates are obtained and a certain amount of world origin is paid, the walker can teleport by himself or carry certain things. According to Yuan Xudong's idea, if it is operated reasonably, a real meteorite can fall from the sky, and it will be invincible when used with the dimensional space!
All in all, apart from his own fragility, Yuan Xudong felt that he was invincible. He teleported to a height of ten thousand meters and dropped a hundred cubic meter rock. The deterrent power was comparable to that of a nuclear warhead. Of course, the premise was to hide his identity well. Otherwise, he was essentially still an ordinary person. There were many ways to kill people invisibly in this world!
After having a certain understanding of his own strengths and weaknesses, Yuan Xudong began to make a plan for his journey. He consulted a large amount of literature on the Internet, and also checked which country had the most gold reserves, where they were hidden, etc. Before his journey, he decided to go abroad to borrow some gold or jewelry to use, just as if he was robbing the rich to help the poor!
…
In the next few days, Yuan Xudong flew around the world to punch in. His purpose was to record the spatial coordinates of various parts of the world. Once he had enough world origins, he could teleport all over the world, including the pyramids of Egypt, the Great Wall and the Forbidden City of China, the Statue of Liberty of the United States, the Eiffel Tower of France, etc. He could teleport wherever he wanted to go!
By the way, he also bought some special products in the United States and put them into the dimensional space, including two pistols, several grenades, and hundreds of bullets!
On the last day, Yuan Xudong returned to China and purchased a batch of daily necessities in a large supermarket. He also bought a batch of gold and silver jewelry in a gold and silver jewelry store, some professional books, commonly used medicines, very gorgeous and beautiful but cheap watches, seeds of crops, some jewelry, spices, batteries, electronic products, several swords made of special steel, and some gold and silver ingots. He picked and chose these things, transported them back home, and transferred them into the dimensional space, occupying half of the space.
At night, before the walking event began, Yuan Xudong put on a black nightgown, activated the power of teleporter, and teleported directly to the United States. The surrounding time and space began to slow down, and the whole world seemed to have pressed the pause button. Only Yuan Xudong was not affected.
In an instant, he passed through the ripples of time and space and entered the gold reserve of the United States. The whole view was magnificent, with gold bricks neatly stacked on the shelves. Looking at these tempting gold bricks, Yuan Xudong walked quickly. In a moment, these gold bricks disappeared out of thin air and were transferred to his dimensional space. In just a few minutes, Yuan Xudong teleported back home. The two teleportations consumed two points of the world's origin and obtained about 50 cubic meters of gold reserves, which was almost 966 tons of gold, 966,000 kilograms, and 26 million taels.
Compared with directly exchanging gold, "borrowing" gold is more profitable!
Teleporting back home, before Yuan Xudong could change out of his nightgown, a black wave as deep as the abyss emerged behind him. However, in an instant, the black wave completely swallowed Yuan Xudong and then disappeared without a trace!
…
"Mr. Walking, you are about to start a walking event!"
"Master Walking, you have 98 points of world origin!"
"Mr. Walking, you can sacrifice the world's origin in exchange for an upgrade of your walking status. After your status is upgraded, you will get more help. Each time you sacrifice the world's origin, you must sacrifice at least 100 points. If it is less than 100 points, all of it will be sacrificed by default. The actual improvement effect will have a certain deviation value!"
"Do you want to sacrifice the entire origin of the world?"
"no!"
"You have sacrificed the entire origin of the world. You will gain a higher status and position in this walking event!"
"Grass!"
…
Time: During the reign of Emperor Zhenzong of the Northern Song Dynasty
Location: Qiantang, a water town in the south of the Yangtze River
…
When Yuan Xudong opened his eyes, what came into view was a graceful figure. She was wearing a light blue coarse cloth dress with her long sleeves half rolled up, revealing a small piece of jade arm like white jade lotus root, hands like soft catkins, a delicate forehead and eyebrows, her hair was tied up in a bun with a jade hairpin and a pink peach blossom tassel pendant. She was soft and fragrant, a beautiful woman from the south of the Yangtze River!
Seeing Yuan Xudong sober up and looking at him dressed in night clothes, Zhao Paner said with a little caution while paddling the bamboo raft:
"Are you awake?"
Looking at the black tiles and white walls on both sides of the river, as well as the village women washing clothes, Yuan Xudong stood up from the shaky bamboo raft, then looked at the gentle woman who looked quite similar to the fairy sister and asked:
"Who are you? Where is this place?"
"I am Zhao Pan'er, the owner of Zhao's Tea Shop, and this is Qiantang County!"
"Zhao Pan'er? In Qiantang County?"
"You are so rude!"
Looking at the strange man who was dressed in night clothes and behaved in an unceremonious manner, whom she had pulled out of the river, Zhao Pan'er frowned and said angrily:
"I saved your life, and it's fine if you don't thank me, but why are you calling me by my name now?"
"You saved my life?"
After taking a look at the soaked nightgown he was wearing, Yuan Xudong looked at Zhao Pan'er and said hesitantly:
"Did I fall into the river?"
"What else?"
Looking at the somewhat strange Yuan Xudong, Zhao Paner frowned slightly and said:
"Forget it. Since you're awake, I'll dock in front of you. You can keep walking along the official road and you'll come across a Yuelai Inn. Go there to rest and change into some more ordinary clothes!"
"No need to bother!"
Looking at Zhao Pan'er, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"Aren't you the wife who runs a tea shop? There should be a place to change clothes in your house, right?"
Looking at the rude Yuan Xudong, Zhao Paner blushed and said angrily:
"You idiot, I really shouldn't have saved you!"
