"Phew, finally done."

Duan Mu wiped the dust off his face and stood in front of the building, nodding with satisfaction.

"Duan Mu, you are so beautiful at this job." The middle-aged woman on the side looked at the brand-new home in front of her, and her face suddenly showed a look of joy: "No wonder all my neighbors are looking for me when winter comes.

When you build a house, you can clearly feel the temperature of the room increasing while sitting in the house."

[Emiri’s favorability is 3, and you will gain 30 experience points. 】

"Now I won't be so disgusted with my child." A happy smile appeared on Emiri's face: "You don't know, right? I have a son who died not long ago. As soon as I saw that child, I

I like it very much.”

The corners of Duan Mu's eyes twitched. What he said... why did it sound so awkward?

However, he also understood that Emiri meant that there was a child who had recently arrived in Soul Society and was assigned to her family and became her son.

"That's really congratulations to you." Duan Mu's eyes flashed with a strange color.

to be honest……

Emiri's increase in favorability is really beyond Duan Mu's expectations. You must know that in the past, no matter how hard Duan Mu worked for her commissions, she would find faults everywhere, and then use various reasons to reduce the commissions.

fees, and sometimes even default on the bill.

Her reputation in West 7th District is also notorious for being cunning and mean. Many West 7th District residents who have a good relationship with Duan Mu have advised Duan Mu not to take the job entrusted by her.

And she was extremely stingy. Although the house was leaking everywhere, she never thought of hiring anyone to repair it. Two years ago, in order to increase her favorability, Duan Mu even told her that he could repair her house for free if necessary. As a result,

What I got in return was Emiri's extremely wary gaze!

In the end, Duan Mu simply gave up and continued to deal with him.

Originally, he thought that this year would be like previous years and that the other party would not come to him to repair the house. However, after he completed all the tasks for repairing the house, winter was about to come. Emiri actually came to his door and handed over the work first for the first time.

Commission fee.

He has truly become a completely different person.

Seeing the gentle smile on Emiri's face and the completely different temperament from Duan Mu's memory, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart at the greatness of the word 'mother'.

Just adopting a child can actually change a person so much.

"My little one, Xiaojie, is very smart. He is only 11 years old and can already write a lot of words and even recite a lot of ancient Chinese prose..." Emiri spoke about her child as if reciting a sutra.

Although Duan Mu was a little impatient in his heart, he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he listened very carefully and interjected from time to time.

To others, the exchange between the two seemed like two middle-aged women chatting together. One of them kept talking about how her child was doing, and the other kept nodding in agreement.

"The only bad thing is that he is too squeamish." After Emiri said it, she smiled and said, "But it's my fault. I haven't done much maintenance on the house. It's normal for him to feel cold."

"He is a child after all, so it's normal to be squeamish."

"yes."

Emiri nodded, then she didn't know what she thought of, and sighed: "It's just that he always said something I couldn't understand. I asked him what he wanted, and he said he wanted to lie in the kotatsu and watch."

TV', and I also want to play that thing called a 'handheld game console'."

"Um?"

Duan Mu, who was a little impatient at first, suddenly became energetic.

Kotatsu?

television?

hand-held gaming device?

Duan Mu has not heard these modern vocabulary for a long time. People who come to Soul Society rarely talk about things during their lifetime. In addition, Duan Mu has never deliberately asked about it, so this is his first time.

I heard news about this world for the first time.

In just one sentence, Duan Mu could analyze a lot of useful information.

Television is still a modern product and was born a long time ago, but handheld consoles are definitely a modern product. Even the earliest handheld consoles only became popular in the late 1990s.

From this point of view, the day when the Seireitei undergoes great changes should not be far away.

but……

It has nothing to do with him. No matter what happens in Jingling Court, it should not affect him.

Moreover, Duan Mu had already calculated the approximate era he was in a long time ago. When he was training at the Shiba family, Sister Kūkaku said that the current captain of the 10th Division is Toshiro Hitsugaya!

"By the way, you only died in recent years, so you should know what these things are, right?" Emiri asked.

Duan Mu smiled when he heard the words: "The kotatsu is actually a '燵' that many people have in their homes, but the modern katsu does not use charcoal and carbon balls to generate heat, but uses an energy called 'electricity'; as for TVs and smartphones

The machine is a product of this world, and in Soul Society it can probably only be found in the Serenity Garden."

"It turns out to be Zhen!" Emiri said with a look of surprise on her face, "In the past hundred years or so, the world has really undergone a lot of changes."

"..." Duan Mu.

To be honest, after coming to Soul Society for nearly five years, his concept of time has become increasingly blurry.

People here talk about decades and hundreds of years at every turn, which makes Duan Mu, a young man who was no more than 27 years old in life and death, feel like he has become a baby here.

The two chatted for a while, Duan Mu looked at the sky, said goodbye and left.

As the end of the year approaches, the weather has turned cooler, and pedestrians on the street are wearing thicker clothes. Duan Mu, who is wearing his usual black work clothes, looks a little out of place.

However, this outfit has also become Duan Mu's symbol, and he can be recognized from a distance when walking on the street.

"Boy Duan Mu, is this the end of the job?"

"Duan Mu, take this pancake I just baked, take it back and eat it with Xiaoyue."

"Brother Duan Mu, when will you come to play with me again?"

"..."

Walking on the streets of West 7th District, any resident who saw Duan Mu would call him down to chat for a while, but Duan Mu was too embarrassed to refuse. As a result, when he walked out of West 7th District, it was completely dark.

Because it happened to be dinner time, he had many small cloth bags filled with food in his hands.

While walking towards home, Duan Mu counted up the experience points gained during the month of resumption of business.

"980 experience points, I actually got nearly a thousand points in a month. It would be great if I could do this every month."

Having said that, Duan Mu also knows that this is almost impossible. This month's harvest can be said to be the last peak season before the year. With winter and the Chinese New Year, many people will repair their houses, so this month's commission will be

Surprisingly many.

the most important is……

The higher the favorability, the harder it is to improve it. Many of Duan Mu's old customers have reached a bottleneck in their favorability. In this case, Duan Mu can only maintain the relationship with old customers while trying to develop new customers.

, which made his Wanshiwu business become bigger and bigger.

Recently, Duan Mu has even launched door-to-door medical services. Although most of them prescribe some herbal medicine, they rarely use Hui Dao to treat customers' injuries unless necessary.

Of course, Duan Mu did not give up his practice after work, and it can be said that he lived a fulfilling life every day.

Although the progress cannot be called rapid progress, it can be regarded as step by step.

Current experience value: 2800

In this month, Duan Mu only used less than 400 experience points, all of which were spent on areas he didn't understand in cultivation.

"When you have some free time in a few days, let's go visit Sister Konghe." Duan Mu sighed. If he wanted to gain a lot of experience points, he really had to start with Sister Konghe.

…

Back in District 38, standing outside the store, I heard a noise coming from inside.

There was no surprise on Duan Mu's face, but he opened the store door as usual, and a lively atmosphere suddenly hit his face.

In the spacious hall of the store, big men with fierce faces were sitting in groups on tables and chairs throughout the hall, drinking and chatting.

Seeing the scene in front of you, those who don’t know may think this is some kind of tavern.

although……

Today's Wanshiwu, without even realizing it, actually has the service of a tavern.

More strictly speaking...

This is more like a gathering place for dangerous people.

Of course, these people are evil people. After a month, the number has not decreased, but has increased for some reason.

When they first came here, Daao and others were afraid of Duan Mu, but as they got along for a long time, they found that the ordinary Duan Mu was surprisingly easy to get along with, and these heartless guys gradually let go.

I have lost my self and am no longer so restrained.

Although they still did whatever Duan Mu asked them to do, they would usually get together and drink in the shop.

At first, the nearby neighbors were a little afraid of Da'ao and the others, but over time they got used to this group of men with ferocious faces, but they only tried to be cruel to each other in private, and everyone wore a smile to the outside world.

I just think that these people are some rather ferocious guys, but I don’t know that these guys are real dangers. They go to the area with the number to fight every day. Recently, due to the moon, these guys are not only fighting with others.

In addition to fun, there are also financial needs...
