The Most Random System-Chapter 556 - 317: Senior 1 Class 4 Gathers Together to Celebrate!
The next day, November 11th, Monday.
Lin Li headed to the classroom.
Double Eleven, another year of the shopping festival, but Lin Li didn’t buy anything.
The significance of Double Eleven is really getting less and less.
In the past, Double Eleven truly had deals, especially in the second year after the event was introduced; if you wanted to buy something, you had to rely on snapping it up.
At that time, Lin Li even suspected that this shopping festival might be a conspiracy boosted by the Cannibal Race, just to make everyone impulsively shop.
A crazy Double Eleven, "V me a hand" indeed.
But now, Double Eleven is like this: haha, original price 598, deposit instantly reduces by 148, storewide 50 off on 500, 30 off on 300 across stores, exclusive 20 off on 200 for members, another 20% off on reservation, small pig wearing ill omens - a set after set, buying something is like doing math.
If it were really discounted, that’d be fine.
Finally, I bought this 598 item for just 200, feeling quite pleased, then checked the historical price and found it was indeed priced at 200 back in October, and had been marked up to 598 just before Double Eleven for the discounts.
Seeing this result made me wiser on the spot.
But really, how many discounts are there in the world? The wool comes from the sheep’s back, the essence of merchants is profit-seeking.
Bear in mind, as long as you recognize the characters, you’ll know, "Capitalists," there’s not one human among them, but "capital" has people squeezed in it, "ists" have people tied in it, "ists’" houses have no one.
This is the capitalist; they’d rather dump milk than sell it cheap.
In this world, there are products that truly cost 799 in reality, without any tricks, that you can now buy for only 79.9, but Lin Li usually calls these "stocks."
Of course, stocks being low-priced doesn’t mean they’re a bargain, you never know if it’s hit rock bottom.
It dropped? Great opportunity, bottom out!
Dropped more? About to make a killing, let me buy more!
Continues to drop! I have a hunch, it can’t drop any further, keep buying!
Haha, it didn’t drop, but damn it, the stock got delisted, and I lost everything, dammit!
The stock investors are the clearest on this; below the ground, there’s a basement, below the basement is a cellar, under the cellar is the crust, and under the crust is Hell, remember, Hell has goddamn eighteen layers.
So, whatever shitty shopping festival it is now, it’s just an ordinary Singles’ Day, a day for singles to get together and chill.
Lin Li looked towards the system.
After school last night, he still rode his bike to Old Friend Road for a stroll, although the purpose had changed, he still gained nothing.
Today is the beginning of a new week, and the system update still didn’t show any significance. No idea what changed, the two additional buttons at the beginning of the month still have unknown functions.
The refresh chance given this week hasn’t been used by Lin Li yet.
The current five item slots are "Random Quality Spirit Stone," "Luck Charm," "Seven-Colored Treasure Robe," "Ability Amplifier (+2)," "Life-extending Pill."
Even though the amount of Spiritual Liquid that can be accumulated in a few hours in the Cultivation Realm has a level of Spiritual Qi output comparable to nearly half a month at the Spiritual Spring, so from an efficiency perspective, "Random Quality Spirit Stone" holds little significance for Lin Li at the moment, and there’s no regret in discarding it.
But the problem is, Lin Li can’t guarantee he can go to the Cultivation Realm next month. Who knows if this damned system will come up with something new again.
So, until he is sure of having a stable way to go to the Cultivation Realm, Lin Li thinks it’s necessary to keep a source of Spiritual Qi for himself.
If one day he can no longer go to the Cultivation Realm, and if he runs out of Spiritual Liquid with no Spiritual Qi, then his cultivation will come to a halt directly.
By then, the cost of gambling on a refresh could be even higher.
"Ability Amplifier" and "Life-extending Pill" are things Lin Li doesn’t need right now but might buy in the future.
Therefore, Lin Li’s idea is to ask Shanqing Daoist whether he’s heard about the "Seven-Colored Treasure Robe" as a treasure when heading to the Cultivation Realm midweek.
Shanqing Daoist approves of the cultivation techniques of the system, but regards the treasures lightly. If the Shanqing Daoist knows about this treasure, he will ask its value. If it’s valuable, he might consider saving up to exchange for one, and if not heard of, he’ll just refresh it.
"Hey, isn’t this Wang Ze? How come you’re so late today? At this time, you’re not in the classroom listening to Bufan’s wild tales?"
When approaching the freshman teaching building, Lin Li saw Wang Ze, who was about to go upstairs, and waved to greet him.
"Ah—it’s like this on Monday," Wang Ze yawned, taking breakfast from one of Lin Li’s hands, while the other hand weakly made a fist, reciting:
"Monday, Monday, spirit’s gone west~ Next Monday, my seventh day~"
"Rhymes, huh? I can do that too," Lin Li snapped his fingers and began to chant: "Monday, Monday~ barely alive~ want to take a pen~ damn, give everyone in the world a stab and blow this world to the grass!" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
The first three lines of Lin Li were rhythmic like a chant, very rhythmic, but the fourth line was suddenly ferocious with a rapid pace, no pauses.
Wang Ze: "?"
"Full marks for emotion, zero for rhyme," Wang Ze laughed and scolded, then sighed with a sense of grievance:
"Why didn’t I have a good rest for over ten hours on the two weekend nights? Now I have to wait for the next weekend again."
"That’s just how people are, bliss out when playing, only to wake up and think ’damn it why did I have to have so much fun,’ really can’t reconcile with oneself." Lin Li shrugged with a smile.
He said giving himself another chance, he definitely wouldn’t do it again.
