Genius One Second Remember Love Go Away? To provide you with wonderful novels to read.

"I'm going to find a job. You stay at home and do your homework. Here's ten yuan. Don't forget to buy something to eat at noon."

In front of a low hut in the slums, Lu Li patted the little loli's head and rubbed it lovingly. It was so good to see his sister so healthy and lively!

"Brother, I know," the little loli pouted and complained, "Don't rub my hair, it's messed up."

His sister, Lu Xin, was very considerate as she helped Lu Li tidy up his clothes. Like a little adult, she said, "You must work hard. Brother is so hardworking. I believe you will be able to find a job this time."

"Don't worry, I will find a good job and earn a lot of money. I will let Xin Xin live a good life," Lu Li hugged his sister and secretly added in his heart. I won't watch you die because I don't have money.

"When Xin Xin grows up, she will also earn a lot of money," the little loli twisted in Lu Li's arms and waved her little fist confidently.

No matter how reluctant he was, Lu Li still said goodbye to his sister.

When he got on the bus, his hand that was in his pocket paused. He couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The money that he gave to his sister for lunch was back in his pocket. He should have expected this little girl to do this. She was so cute that it made him sad.

It was now the 23rd century. Technology was infinitely advanced. All kinds of intelligent technology filled every corner of the world. This kind of development brought rapid progress to people's lives, but it also reduced the demand for manpower to a minimum.

Unemployment was not a rare thing, especially for people like Lu Li who were at the bottom of society. Finding a stable job was only a luxury.

If there were no accidents, he would always be unemployed.

It was not until he joined a game guild's gold farming group that he was able to stabilize his situation. However, because he entered this game called "Dawnlight", the game had already been released for nearly a year. His level was too low, so he was not able to become a super expert.

Two years later, her younger sister, Lu Xin, was found to be seriously ill during a medical examination at school.

He did not have the money to pay for the treatment fees, which reached millions, and he was constantly being hunted down by several guilds in the game. He could only watch in pain as his only family grew weaker day by day.

That kind of feeling was even more painful than cutting flesh with a knife. Lu Li hugged his sister more than once and cried bitterly.

However, there was a twist of fate.

On the day he received the notice of critical illness, Lu Li cried for a while before falling asleep in front of his sister's bed. When he woke up, he found that he had been reborn to three years ago.

While he was happy that his sister was still healthy, he knew that he had to make money, a lot of money.

Only with money could he cure his sister's illness as soon as possible. Only with money could his sister be like her countless peers, living the happy life that an innocent and adorable little girl should live.

Only with money could he hold his head high, and not be inferior to others at any time!

Lottery was the easiest way to make money, but unfortunately Lu Li never thought that he would be reborn, so naturally he did not know any of the lottery numbers. Stocks could also make money, but unfortunately a poor kid like him would never be able to come into contact with that kind of thing. Furthermore, the stock market fluctuated like the tide, it was not something that a person without capital like him could play with …

After thinking about it, Lu Li helplessly realized that even though he had been reborn, it was not easy to become a rich person.

The only thing he could do seemed to be playing the game — — the game that he had played for more than two years, < Dawnlight > — — right now, there were only a few days left before the game was released.

Lu Li had already given up on the idea of finding a proper job. Today, he went straight to the Star Moon Union headquarters that he had worked for in his previous life.

The Star Moon Union was not one of the top ten gaming guilds, nor was it one of the top four in China. It was only a gaming alliance formed by a group of university students. The leaders of the union were all second generation rich kids, and because they were willing to spend money, they had developed quite well.

Located next to the university town, Green Lake District could be considered as the most beautiful place in this area. It was surrounded by mountains on one side and water on the other, cherry blossoms were everywhere. In front of it was an office building, and behind it was a villa area. Only extremely wealthy people could establish a company here.

The beautiful receptionist looked at Lu Li's attire with a bit of disgust, dialed a number, and then informed Lu Li that he could go in for an interview.

"Currently, we are only recruiting death squads, we are not accepting gold collecting members." The person in charge of recruitment was a girl. She was dressed very fashionably, and while painting her nails, she was in charge of the interview without raising her head.

The so-called death squads were actually cannon fodder. Dying tens of times a day was a very normal thing.

The reason why Lu Li wanted to find a studio to join was to use the studio's game helmet for free. Although gold collecting members had no future, at least they could level up. Cannon fodder that was destined to be difficult to level up wasn't what he wanted. Dying in the game would result in losing experience.

"I'm actually better at gold collecting," he couldn't give up. If he was reduced to a death squad, his plans to earn money would be seriously thwarted. Lu Li calmed his breath, and said something that would shock everyone to death: "You can hire me to help you collect gold, at least 20 gold a week … …"

"What, 20 gold!" The girl screamed like a cat that had been stepped on as her nail polish was smeared all over her face.

Although "Dawnlight" represented the most advanced virtual technology in the world, and had the best design team in the world, it was not confident enough to enter the market without testing. It was just that the content of the test was relatively small, and it was a decentralized test, so it wouldn't affect the normal game.

In just a few days of testing, it left a deep impression on the players, which was that gold was not easy to collect, and there were too many places to spend money.

Normal players basically couldn't make ends meet in the early stages of the game, and experienced gold collecting members could only collect a few silver coins in a day.

Some veteran professional players estimated that if they wanted to accumulate 20 Gold Coins to establish a Guild, they would need to form a hundred-man gold farming team to grind suitable monsters. After deducting the cost of repairing equipment and potions, it would take at least a week or more. This was even before the third system update of the game.

But this guy in front of her, he actually promised to collect 20 gold coins in a week!

20 gold coins, that's 200000 copper coins!

"Have you participated in the testing before? Did you find some kind of money-farming bug?" the recruitment beauty asked suspiciously.

Lu Li smiled without saying a word, appearing extremely mysterious.

"Ao Jian, I have something to do here, come over for a moment … Hmm, someone came to apply for a gold collecting member, and said that he can submit 20 gold coins in a week. I suspect he has a money-farming bug." The recruitment beauty had no choice but to call the higher-ups in a low voice.

Not long after, he heard a rush of footsteps. Turning around, Lu Li was also a little surprised.

Other than the boss of Star Moon Union, Ao Jian, there were actually a few people following him. Lu Li had been in Star Moon Union for two years in his previous life, so he knew most of these people, they were all the higher-ups of the union.

"Oh, don't tell me that this guy is the one who can get 20 gold coins in a week." The short guy walking beside Ao Jian couldn't help but wail. This person's in-game name was Half A Cigarette, he was the leader of the Star Moon Union's bandit group, and he was a very impatient person.

"Is what she said true? You have a way to get 20 gold coins in a week, are you sure it's the game 'Dawnlight'? " Ao Jian's face was also not very good, he originally had a glimmer of hope, but seeing Lu Li's appearance, this glimmer of hope was gone.

Lu Li's appearance was ordinary, his face was sallow and dark, his clothes were wrinkled, and there were obvious signs of wear and tear at the corners. One look and you could tell that he was the kind of person who struggled and climbed at the bottom of society.

"Words are no proof, even if you can't get it, you won't lose much, right?" Facing a huge aura, surrounded by the elites of society, Lu Li did not have the awkwardness of a small fry at the bottom of society, he only smiled faintly, his calm gaze seemed to be filled with endless confidence.
