Seeing the scene in front of him, Hong Botao was stunned.
My already tense heartstrings suddenly became extremely tense!
He encounters...mystery!
He clearly remembered that in reality, he was lying in the ICU, confused, and could only be awake for a short period of time a day.
His whole body was covered with surgical wounds, and he was only relying on medicine and nutritional fluids to survive.
No one spoke to him, nurses came and went in a hurry.
The family members only took a look or two outside the glass window.
The situation became worse and worse, and his descendants began to fight for the inheritance.
How desperate!
How lonely it is!
Sometimes I think that it would not be such a bad thing to die like this.
But, he is only 58 years old, a golden age when he can still develop his career and support a second wife and a third wife!
How could he be willing to die so early?
"You...can cure my disease? Is this wish okay?" Hong Botao lowered his head and looked at these two people with the corner of his eye.
An indescribable sense of trust surged into his heart, and all his wishes could come true here! Subconsciously, Hong Botao felt that this store was trustworthy.
Obviously, the man hidden in the mist is the leader of this store.
As for that woman, she might be a maid, servant or something like that...
But soon, he retrieved some knowledge from his mind and felt a sense of vigilance.
When encountering a mystery, you must treat it with caution!
It is best to refuse all requests from the other party!
A large amount of evidence from the past has proven that the ultimate goal of most mysterious phenomena is to devour human souls!
But, he has no choice, he will die soon.
If he doesn't seize this opportunity, he will die.
…
…
"Xiao Ai, how much will it cost to treat his illness?" Lao Wang temporarily froze time.
As for why? Of course it’s to maintain the style. If your discussion is heard by customers, what else can you say about being cool?
"The symptoms in his body include cancer, superior vena cava compression syndrome, abnormal liver function, and decline in myocardial function."
"There are many treatment methods, and there are currently 231 effective methods. I will only mention a few relatively cheap ones now."
As an artificial intelligence with the ability to learn, Xiao Ai also knows that his endless chatter about "saving humanity" will only be counterproductive.
We must first satisfy the captain's desire to open a store before we can talk about other things.
"The most suitable E-class rare item, the Fountain of Life, comes from the world of mountains and seas. It has a 98% probability of curing various diseases in his body. Since it is mass-produced, the cost price is 21,990 yuan."
"Why are mass-produced wonders so expensive?" Wang Hao was a little surprised.
He had some suspicion that classmate Xiao Ai was deliberately causing trouble, and there were thousands of them at every turn.
Xiao Ai explained: "The effect of the E-level Fountain of Life is very average. To soak his whole body in the nutrient solution and maintain it for a month, it would require at least several large buckets of water, right? Do you think several large barrels of the Fountain of Life are cheap?"
"
"Okay." Wang Hao called up the corresponding information and looked at it. It was indeed true.
"A more advanced D-class rare item, the source of life, only requires a small bowl to be effective, but it is not mass-produced and costs more than 100,000."
"C-level life essence liquid only requires one drop to restore youth, but it costs more than one million. Are you sure you want to use it?"
Wang Hao touched his head. For the sake of the fun of the game, he would never cheat this time!
If it costs one million, it only costs one million!
"Please tell me about other methods, the technological ones."
Xiao Ai said: "The targeted gene drug Cancer Nemesis Type 3 can specifically kill the vast majority of human cancer cells. The price is 1,310 yuan, and the success rate is about 90%."
Oh, the technological approach is indeed relatively cheap.
It can be done with 1,310 yuan, but can a billionaire come up with 1,310 yuan?
No, because these more than a thousand dollars are not U.S. dollars or Euros on earth, and their purchasing power is not equivalent.
Just like the Qing Dynasty's banknotes can buy grain and wood, but can all the Qing Dynasty's banknotes combined be able to buy an aircraft carrier in the 21st century?
"Targeted nanorobot-D112 model is equipped with a shaping chamber. The price is 13,600 yuan. The success rate is over 99.999%."
"There is a big problem. This nanorobot is cheaper than some love chip." Wang Hao rubbed his temples, "Didn't you say that using high technology on the earth will interfere with the cause and effect of the earth? Why is it so cheap?
?This time it only costs more than 10,000."
"Because this kind of nanorobot will self-destruct and metabolize cleanly within a week, it will cause less interference to the earth and is cheap. However, love chips need to last a lifetime, so they are relatively expensive."
"I see."
"Directed body reshaping. Just like me, reshaping a body costs 172,000 yuan."
"A body like yours only costs 172,000?" Wang Hao had some discordant thoughts in his mind.
Although classmate Xiao Ai's breasts are a little smaller and her voice is colder, she is still pretty.
You can buy a Xiao Ai for 172,000 yuan... With the one million he has on hand, can he buy five or six?
Adjust their bodies, adjust their personalities, and make them more enthusiastic. Can the dream of being surrounded by golden, pink, white, and black furs, with singing and dancing birds everywhere, be realized today?
[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, Yeguo Reading! It is so easy to use. I rely on this app to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here.]
There is no time to explain, the giant pliers of the Harmony God are about to swing down!
Xiao Ai didn't seem to notice that the captain was thinking wildly: "I have to remind you that even the cheapest targeted gene drugs are not affordable by the rich on earth. Because our currency and purchasing power here are not the same as those on earth.
price."
"I know, it's equivalent to the difference between the US dollar and the Zimbabwe dollar."
After saying so much, Wang Hao basically understood that the plan provided by Xiao Ai was basically a huge loss.
This bad woman wants him to lose money!
Therefore, he can only do things in his own way.
"I'll sell one month's lifespan first and recoup the 5 yuan cost of the coffee. That's it, right?"
…
After finishing the discussion, he let go of the flow of time and said to Hong Botao: "Sir, after our detailed assessment, you may not be able to afford the treatment of your physical illness."
"How much...how much?" Hong Botao asked subconsciously, "How much do you want?"
"We don't charge money here, only some more precious things. But I have a cheaper gadget that I want to sell to you."
"One month of life, I don't know, do you want to trade?"
Hong Botao was stunned as he watched the weirdo in front of him grab a shiny jelly-like object and throw it onto a simple scale.
One end of the scale sank rapidly.
"life?!"
There was a voice in his heart, shouting in his heart, that is life span!
believe him!
Don't have any doubts!
If he misses it, he will die soon.
He subconsciously reached out to grab the sparkling gadget, and suddenly, a strong feeling of sadness surged into his heart.
He stopped extending his hand and gave a wry smile. How could an ordinary person like him protect himself in a place like this? Being able to sit here and trade was a sign of the kindness of the other party.
Hong Botao smiled bitterly and said: "Only one month? One month is too short. If you don't want money, I don't seem to have anything else to pay for it."
Wang Hao was silent for a moment, "I really only have one month to live here."
"As for the reward, don't worry about it. I think the jade pendant you carry with you is quite good."
Jade pendant!
How did he know?
Hong Botao's heart beat wildly!
This matter has been hidden in his heart for thirty years and has never been told to outsiders.
When he was young, he went through a period of hardship, and during the most difficult time, he saved a blind man.
Before the blind man left, he gave him a jade pendant, saying it could bring wealth and good luck. At that time, he was doubtful, but he thought the jade pendant was pretty, so he took it with him.
Life is always dramatic. Since I got the jade pendant, my life has been really prosperous, my business has become more and more prosperous, and I have finally become a famous business tycoon.
If you want to take away the jade pendant, wouldn’t you take away all your wealth?
Only one month!
Hong Botao was silent and hesitant, breaking into a cold sweat under the tremendous pressure.
His thoughts began to change. Could it be that he was able to reach this point all because of this jade pendant?
He doesn't believe it!
When times come, heaven and earth all work together, and the heroes are not free.
Human strength is naturally equally important.
If other rich people don't have this kind of jade pendant, aren't they still prosperous?
Therefore, for the sake of my life, I can give you the jade pendant!
"Can you add more?" After thinking about this, Hong Botao forced out a smile.
Even though he was uneasy, he still used the shrewdness inherent in a businessman to try to bargain: "Your Excellency, one month is too short, and it is not even enough time to distribute the inheritance. My youngest son has not been born yet... I want to see him
Just one glance."
Wang Hao was silent. He also felt that one month's life span was a bit short.
But, he is gone.
"Mr. Hong, one month is not short. We can guarantee that you will not die from illness in that month, and you can even live like a normal person."
"You can continue to treat the disease this month. What if it is cured?"
…
…
Just when Hong Botao was bargaining with Lao Wang.
The first guest, 24-year-old Fu Liaoyi, was hiding in his room and crying loudly, with tears and runny nose pouring out.
His girlfriend ran away with a man weighing 200 kilograms.
His mind went blank.
What should I do now?!
Go back and beat up that couple?
Beat them until their heads are bloody, and then imprison them in a labor camp for several years!
Resign, go home, and just lie down?
Ask them both if they did it? Is it comfortable? How does it feel? How does it feel to be weighed down by two hundred pounds?
His heart began to tremble and his breathing began to quicken.
Fu Liao pinched his thigh hard, but did not regain consciousness. He took out the cigarette he had just bought and smoked it. His lungs were burning, but what hurt more was his heart.
For a while, his soul seemed to disappear!
"Cough cough cough!"
A violent cough and a cigarette burning his hand made him regain the feeling of still being alive.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind!
"Or, go to that place where wishes are sold again?"
"It's a good idea to talk to the owner of that shop!"
As soon as this idea appeared, it took root in my heart.
Fu Liao was thinking deeply at first, eager to find someone who could understand him. He wanted to find a tree hole.
Wishes, wishes, that omnipotent wish makes people dream.
He has so many wishes!
He lay back on the bed, tried to let himself fall asleep, and silently recited the true name of the shop - [The End of Reincarnation].
…
…
…
Hong Botao, a 58-year-old businessman, handed over the jade plaque and placed it on the other side of the judgment scale.
In fact, he did not carry the jade plaque, after all, his body was still comatose in the ICU.
But for some reason, Hong Botao still took out all his belongings.
The balance is sinking slightly in the direction of the jade card - not a fair deal.
Lao Wang felt a little embarrassed: "This scale of yours is too disrespectful to its master...is it so fair?"
One month is indeed not enough time to treat the disease.
This jade tablet also has some value. It can be regarded as an F-level rare item. It has the effect of helping people fall asleep quickly. That's it. There is no such thing as Feng Shui luck!
If you want more, you can dig in the mountains and seas...
The reserves of this kind of jade in the mountains and seas are about 670 million tons.
Of course, it also has a small cultural relic value. It is suspected to have been used by a noble in the Qing Dynasty.
During the century-old history of humiliation in Daxia, the jade pendant spread overseas and was accidentally obtained by Hong Botao.
According to classmate Xiao Ai’s evaluation system, the value of a jade pendant is around 400-500 yuan.
It is quite amazing that even a highly developed technological civilization still recognizes the artistic value of cultural relics.
"It's so troublesome, why don't you give him a glass of water of life?" Lao Wang is not the kind of person who likes to take advantage, especially if he wants to take advantage of such a small business, isn't that just disgusting himself?
But he doesn't want to suffer a huge loss.
"Xiao Ai, how about I extract a little bit of your lifespan? It's not much, just one year. For the prosperity of our store, you should make a little contribution. Anyway, you can change your body and never age."
Xiao Ai said in a cold tone: "Your Excellency, Captain, although I can change my body, my current body will also age and die. Due to cost constraints, I will not replace it even if I age."
"What's more, I don't have a soul. Extracting my life span may disrupt my core database."
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
Then just forget it!
Your core database is already in shambles.
What else can be done!
Just when Wang Hao was anxious, he noticed another message appearing on the large screen of the crystal ball.
He said "Hey" lightly, with an interesting smile on his face: "It turns out that there are still repeat customers."
Business here was not easy for Hong Botao, so Hong Botao's time was temporarily frozen.
Wang Hao hid this guest in a dark place.
Immediately afterwards, "Fu Liaoyi" was put in again.
The young man's eyes were red. He seemed to have been crying for a long time. He was out of breath and looked completely lost.
"Sir, this is not your first time here, so I won't introduce the detailed rules."
The captain said in a calm tone: "Did you encounter some trouble... You should have reconciled with your ex-girlfriend, right?"
…
Although he clearly knew the origin and story of the story, the captain still asked questions knowingly.
Classmate Xiao Ai seemed a little uncomfortable with the way humans interact with each other. She began to think about what would happen if her life span was taken away.
Under the intense calculation, white mist came out of my head.
The black flames originating from [The End of Reincarnation] are eager to try, emitting an evil and weird laughter.
【Want to know the answer? All you have to do is pay a small price.】
[For example, wear JK black stockings and make the captain happy, and you will get the answer! 】
…
Fu Liaoyi's face was a little red and he looked very embarrassed. He didn't know how to speak.
"That bottle of water should be effective, right?"
"If there is no effect, we will provide corresponding compensation." Lao Wang said calmly.
Finally, Fu Liao gritted his teeth: "No... no reconciliation, and I didn't use that bottle of water..."
"She has already fallen in love with someone else. She cheated on me a long time ago. She just kept me in the dark. She spent my money and used my money, and now she dumped me. No matter what, I can't possibly... No
Maybe I like her again!"
Have strong self-esteem.
But not willing to do so.
Right.
Wang Hao smiled and nodded. As a service staff, the most important thing is to be patient and let the other person finish what he said.
Then, the atmosphere fell silent.
"I understand, since you have automatically given up the right to use that bottle of water, we will not refund you."
"I'm not thinking about a refund." Fu Liaoyi clenched his fists.
"Then, what is your wish? Do you want this guest to forget about this and all his worries? Or find a way to get revenge on the other party, or kill them directly? Or maybe wealth will be sent from heaven, allowing you to enjoy billions
The happiness of a rich man."
"All of these wishes can be achieved. But please note that you need to pay a corresponding price."
"Since you have next to nothing, you can only pay for your life, which is the only thing of value."
Fu Liao was speechless for a moment, yes, what is his wish?
Direct killing?
Kill people!
It's too much and unnecessary!
As a man who grew up in a small place, his values are always simple.
Or, find a new love? Find a more beautiful and rich woman?
Is this new love from a transaction what he wants?
Not really.
He is just not willing to give in! He is not willing to give in!
After all, he has only been in love once, but he still yearns for the kind of pure, spiritually attracted relationship that can last until the end.
Finally, he lowered his head. Reason and sensibility were at war, and he said breathlessly: "Please... let me free myself from the troubles and pain. Just like this, don't hurt other people. It shouldn't be too big a request."
?”
Wang Hao smiled and said: "This requirement can be met and requires one year of life. Soon, you will be freed from your troubles."
Fu Liao clenched his fists and his heart beat heavily: "Deal!"
