Next, the conversation between Ren Zhong and Yujin was not much different from the last time.
In order to make Yujin believe that his appreciation for him was genuine and not ulterior, Ren Zhong even had to put on a bit of acting.
He pretended to be surprised, "Wow! Not bad. In just ten days, you’ve almost reached the level of a First Level Gunsmith."
Praised heavily, Yujin scratched his head in embarrassment.
"It’s okay, killing is not your fault. In life, there are always some unavoidable regrets. The Demolition Master who died at your hands might have been a part of the Mechanical Warrior group, which was originally the conspiracy of those two people. Or perhaps the Demolition Master wanted to swallow the Crystal Chip alone, none of them were good people."
Ren Zhong patted Yujin’s head.
Sure enough, the little guy became teary-eyed again.
His appearance eerily overlapped with the image of the Demon God bathed in flames in Ren Zhong’s memory, giving an incredibly peculiar feeling.
Ren Zhong comforted him again, then brought up the matter of morning hunting.
Good, everything repeated itself, the little guy was once again shocked, questioning life.
Once Yujin calmed down, he couldn’t help but ask again, "Mr. Ren, why... why is this?"
Ren Zhong thought seriously, "Because I look forward to the day when we fight side by side."
"Huh? Fight with whom?"
Ren Zhong wanted to tell him, "Fight against all the injustices in the world that drove your mother to death."
But in the end, Ren Zhong just smiled and asked in return, "Does it matter who we fight with? Does fighting need a reason?"
This overly metaphysical question made the little guy’s mind a bit dizzy.
He pondered for a very long time, "Hmm, that’s not important. Mr. Ren’s enemies are my enemies."
"You can understand it that way for now, that’s fine. But actually, fighting does need a reason, but that’s too far away for you. Alright, go back, remember not to be late at five o’clock tomorrow morning."
Yujin turned to leave.
Ren Zhong seemed to remember something, took the demeanor of a big shot and advised Yujin from behind, "I heard that many old people in the town have a habit of going to the small town outside and boarding the Mengdu Group’s car when the Pu Cha is approaching. Your mother is not young anymore. You need to guide her well. Tell her that you have me to cover you in the future. Regardless of the results of the Pu Cha, you can rest easy. If Starfire Town can’t accommodate you, the world will."
Yujin paused, nodded heavily, "Yes! Thank you for the advice, sir."
After seeing off Yujin, Ren Zhong checked the time, it was approaching 6:50.
He lay back in the chair, connected to the internet.
Last time he concluded the final battle of short-term trading after his resurrection, finished the work.
2205.63 points of funds were credited.
Counted the assets, compared to memory.
Ren Zhong carefully recalled, at this time last time, he would go to see Ju Qingmeng and spend lavishly once, buying a Second Level Exoskeleton and making some minor improvements, spending a total of 2800 points.
After deducting the fees at that time, there was only 43 points left in the account.
Then deducing backward, his net worth at that time should be slightly more than 2843.
But now he had 4067.21 points in his account, considering the 92 points spent on Delicious Choice delivery, his original total assets should be 4159.21.
4159.21 compared to last time’s 2843 was an excess of more than 1316 points.
This was not a surprise, it was expected, all earned from his continuous efforts through multiple resurrections.
Last time, buying the Fourth Level Wrist watch through sheer effort was indeed worth it, with as much as 1300 points from the 1316 points being the wealth created by the Fourth Level Wrist watch.
Thinking about it carefully, wearing the First Level watch for so long only earned a tiny bit, truly sad.
Ren Zhong looked down at the First Level watch on his wrist, the more he looked, the less satisfied he felt.
He pondered for a moment, made a new decision.
He adjusted the general plan again, temporarily not replacing the Second Level Exoskeleton, and decided to buy a watch first.
So, he immediately went out, first to the supply and marketing cooperative to register for the need to purchase a Fourth Level Wrist watch, and spent 10 points to buy a low-end tablet computer.
Then he headed straight to the town government, planning to find Ma Dafu to get authorization to purchase the Fourth Level Wrist watch.
By the way, to build some connections with Old Ma.
Oh no, to raise funds.
When Ren Zhong arrived at the town government, a few elderly people dressed in either simple or tattered clothing were pacing hesitantly outside the steps, showing some signs of struggle on their faces.
Ren Zhong had seen such a scene more than once before.
But back then he didn’t care, just thought these elderly people had some unspoken difficulties and wanted to seek help from the Mayor.
