章 2: 99 Yuan Funeral Mission
編集者: EndlessFantasy Translation
"648, Huanhe District? This is the place!"
"Demotion? Wow, what huge fonts!"
Su Chen came to Huanhe District and stopped at 648, only to find that it was a small lot. On its walls, a huge "demotion" was sprayed over it!
It was slated for demolition. Some huge corporate had eyes on this land?
He heard that the compensation for such a place was already as high as 1,000,000 yuan. Su Chen's eyes suddenly lit up. He had to grasp this opportunity!
With three parts anticipation, three parts nervousness, three parts confidence, and one part reverence, Su Chen knocked on the courtyard door!
The courtyard door slowly opened. What entered his sight was an old man wearing an old-fashioned military hat. His face was full of wrinkles, and his complexion was not very good. His figure was slightly hunched, but it could not conceal the aura of a veteran.
To be honest, when he opened the door and saw the military hat, Su Chen's heart had suddenly trembled!
He could not help but already respect this man.
He hurriedly introduced himself.
"Hello, I'm from the Su family's Funeral Company!"
"Hmm, please come in!"
Chu Guozhong sized up Su Chen. He seemed capable. He was full of vigor, and he had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was a rather pleasant-looking youth.
He immediately let him into the house.
The house was littered with furniture that was about to be moved out. There was also a strange smell mixed in. Su Chen could tell that the smell came from the old man's body. It was a faint medicinal smell. It spoke of sickness and death.
In addition, the old man did not look very well. No matter how blind Su Chen was, he knew that the old man was preparing for his own funeral.
This was the first business deal. After Su Chen entered the courtyard, he quickly took out the handwritten price list of the services that he had prepared long ago. On it was a variety of funeral services that corresponded to each price.
He handed it to the old man with a warm smile.
"Take a look. This is our funeral services price list. On it are the services that correspond to each price. Our specialty is to create a mysterious and terrifying past for you! No trickery, no hidden charges!"
"Okay!"
Chu Guozhong looked at Su Chen again. This young man seemed rather modest, and he did not look like he was up to no good.
However, when he saw the price on the price list, his eyes were filled with shock, and the corners of his mouth twitched a little!
!!!
Good Lord, this is a robbery, right?
100,000, 1,000,000, even 1,000,000,000?
Good lord, this brat really dares to write!
What's the difference between this and robbery?
The ridiculous price list immediately made Chu Guozhong doubt the identity and services of the young man in front of him. How could such a service exist?
It was too expensive!
Upon seeing the hesitation on the old man's face, Su Chen hurriedly took two steps forward and enthusiastically recommended:
"Old Sir, can I recommend a service for you? The 100,000 yuan package is not bad. If you can pay me 100,000 yuan, 3,000 men in black with umbrellas will show up at your funeral. An unlicensed Rolls Royce will open the way. Three old men in black suits and two tearful women will pay their respects to your tombstone and leave solemnly!"
Upon listening to Su Chen's introduction, Chu Guozhong coughed dryly.
It actually sounded good.
But... it was too expensive!
At that moment, Chu Guozhong handed the price list back to Su Chen and shook his head.
"Sorry, I can't afford that much!"
"Don't worry, Old Sir. I have a more cost-effective service here!"
Su Chen was a little surprised and quickly continued.
However, he fell silent when the brochure was handed back to him wordlessly.
This is strange, the old man should have been paid handsomely!
Was he just rubbing off the man the wrong way? Did he not trust him?
At that moment, Chu Guozhong's information suddenly appeared in Su Chen's mind through the system!
[Name: Chu Guozhong
Identity: retired veteran
Remaining lifespan: 19 hours
Personal Assets: 3 million (all donated to charity)
Recommendation service: 99 Yuan]
Su Chen suddenly understood.
He could only push the 99 yuan package to him. It was a small pittance, but no matter how small a mosquito was, it was still something!
"I really don't have any money!"
Chu Guozhong shook his head repeatedly and was about to turn around and leave. He really could not afford such services.
As the old man hobbled away, trembling and almost in tears, Su Chen seemed to be able to see his very life slipping away. If he could not complete the deal today, the deal would be completely gone.
He hardened his heart and gritted his teeth.
"Old Sir, if you are willing to pay me 99 yuan, I will wear a black suit, black sunglasses, complete with a earpiece at your funeral. Regardless of the weather, I will hold up a black umbrella and silently watch the crowd!"
Su Chen stopped Chu Guozhong and spoke sincerely.
There was no other way. He was so poor that he had no choice. If he could make one deal, he would make that one deal!
Otherwise, who knew where the money for tomorrow's meal would be!
As Su Chen earnestly peered at him, Chu Guozhong's heart trembled violently. His old eyes narrowed as he thought about what would happen if such a scene really happened at his funeral.
"Old Sir, only 99 Yuan is needed to give you a mysterious and terrifying past!" Su Chen said from the bottom of his heart.
A moment later...
Chu Guozhong looked at Su Chen and sighed deeply.
"Really?"
"Absolutely!"
Su Chen's face lit up as he hurriedly nodded and said.
Then, he happily took out the payment code that he had long prepared for the old man to scan the code and pay.
Chu Guozhong took out a crumpled one hundred yuan from his chest pocket and stuffed it into Su Chen's hand. He smiled and said,
"Child, you look like a good person. I believe you! You don't need to give me any change for this!"
"Old Sir, please fill in your information and the location of the funeral!"
Su Chen spoke without holding back.
Those who were able to order funeral services for themselves knew that they did not have much time left and would not take offense at such details.
Chu Guozhong filled in his information and the location of the funeral.
Finally, he looked deeply at Su Chen.
He looked weary and mournful.
This was the company's first customer. Su Chen nodded slightly at the old man:
"Old Sir, I wish you a pleasant service!"
Then, he walked out of the small home.
He was a little excited, but also a little sad.
He rode his motorcycle back to the shop,
At that moment, the system's voice rang out in his mind!
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the first funeral mission!]
[Service item: 99 Yuan! Automatically converted into 99 points!]
[Points can be exchanged for the items needed for the mission in the points store. After the mission is completed, the system will give additional rewards of different levels depending on the level of success!]
[Ding! The 99 Yuan Mission Store is now open!]
99 points set (5-piece set) :
[Black suit with a mysterious aura]
[King-level temperament and eyes with a solemn aura]
[Sunglasses as dark as ink]
[Black Bluetooth headset]
[A black umbrella]
...
If this was something the system produced, it had to be very well-made!
Without any hesitation, Su Chen directly acquired the set.
Now, he only had to wait for Chu Guozhong to pass away and make a grand appearance at the funeral.
Su Chen briefly organized Chu Guozhong's information.
In less than a day, he would attend Chu Guozhong's funeral!
