Windfall Of 100,000 Alliance Dollars!

Longquan District.

The tube-shaped apartments were like huge square cement pillars. They were very close to each other, making it seem crowded and oppressive.

Chu Zhou's house was on the 64th floor of Block 38!

Fortunately, in recent decades, nuclear technology had advanced by leaps and bounds, and nuclear energy had begun to be used on a large scale. Energy shortage has been alleviated.

This allowed for cheap electricity where even the poor could afford to use elevators in the slums.

It was tragic decades ago. At that time, energy was scarce and a large amount of electricity had to be used in the city's defense system. As a result, electricity was expensive, and the slums could not afford to use elevators.

Chu Zhou walked into the elevator and pressed the button for the 64th floor.

The elevator went up.

He arrived at the 64th floor in no time.

"Beep!"

He unlocked the lock with his fingerprint and pushed the door open.

The strong smell of alcohol hit him as soon as he entered.

Father is probably drunk again.

Chu Zhou sighed in his heart.

Sure enough, he saw his father lying crookedly on the old sofa in the hall.

The glass coffee table next to the sofa was filled with empty beer bottles.

Chu Zhou walked to the sofa and sized up his sleeping father. His heart ached when he saw his left leg, which was obviously twisted at the joint.

His father was actually a handsome middle-aged man. However, he had a lame left leg and was a drunkard which made him look especially down and out.

As for the reason his father drank so much?

Chu Zhou was not very sure.

His father had been in this state for as long as he could remember.

He had never told him the reason.

However, he occasionally saw his father holding an old photograph and staring at it for an extended period of time. Sometimes for an entire day.

In any case, he did his best to raise and take care of him and his sister even though he drank so much.

He had never lost his temper towards them, let alone hit or scold them.

Their father would usually stay by them silently if his sister or him were down or bullied.

"I've read online that the Water of Life can regenerate broken limbs… Repairing my father's crippled leg would be child's play."

"However, the Water of Life is very expensive. It costs at least 1 billion Alliance Dollars!"

"I can earn a lot of money by hunting monsters as long as I become a real martial artist."

"I must become a martial artist, work hard to earn money to buy the Water of Life for my father!"

Chu Zhou muttered to himself. He reached out and patted his father gently.

"Dad, wake up. Go take a shower. Xiaoyu should be back soon."

"Little Zhou, you're back!" Chu Donglai opened his eyes in a daze. "Yes, it's Friday again. Xiaoyu and you are having a break… It's not good for Xiaoyu to see me like this!"

He left the sofa and limped into the bathroom.

Chu Zhou began to clean up the empty beer bottles on the coffee table and put them all in the trash can. Then, he opened the door and windows to let the smell of alcohol out.

The door opened with a beep and a pretty girl of about 13-years-old walked in just as he was about to finish tidying up the house.

"Big Brother, your invincible younger sister is back!" Chu Yu shouted loudly and walked towards Chu Zhou.

"I'm not deaf. There's no need to shout so loudly!"

Chu Zhou said angrily and reached out to rub his sister Chu Yu's little head.

"Ahhh… Brother, you messed up my hairstyle again. We'll not be able to rule together!"

Chu Yu screamed and used the "Nine Yin Skeleton Claw" with both hands to scratch, tear, and pull on Chu Zhou's body like a crazy person.

"Alright, it's your turn to cook today. I have something to deal with!"

Chu Zhou "comforted" his good sister and walked into his room.

It was time to see how much this unexpected windfall was!

He sat on the bed and took out the Alliance Dollars wrapped in three balls of paper. Then, he began to calculate the amount.

"100,000 Alliance Dollars!"

Chu Zhou suppressed the excitement in his heart.

He had made a killing this time.

100,000 Alliance Dollars was nothing to the rich people, but it was a huge sum of money to a family like theirs.

It even made him hope that he would be attacked a few more times.

It was too profitable.

"My plan will speed up with this 100,000 Alliance Dollars."

"High-energy food can speed up the accumulation of attribute points… And the best high-energy food is monster meat."

"However, even the most ordinary monsters are comparable to Awakening Realm martial artists. Only real martial artists have the ability to kill monsters…"

"Also, it is very troublesome to move the monsters' corpses back to the city from the wilderness even after they are killed."

"The smell of blood will easily attract the attention of other monsters since there are too many monsters in the wilderness. Once attacked by monsters, even an Awakening Realm Martial Artist might die."

"Hence, monster meat is a very expensive ingredient. Only the truly rich can eat them…"

"However,100,000 Alliance Dollars should be enough for me to buy some low-level monster meat to eat for a while."

"I'll deposit the money in the bank first!"

He went out under his sister's surprised gaze to deposit the 100,000 Alliance Dollars into his bank card at a bank in the neighborhood.

When he got home, he immediately turned on his computer and logged into the mall to search for monster meat.

Soon, a large amount of pictures of monster meat and related instructions appeared on the webpage.

…

"Four-Armed Violent Ape Meat (Beast General Level), 500 grams, 30,000 Alliance Dollars!"

"Steel Armored Dragon Lizard meat (Beast General Level), 500 grams, 30,000 Alliance Dollars!"

…

"Goldback Wild Ox meat (Elite Level), 500 grams, 6,000 Alliance Dollars!"

…

"Iron Thorn Boar Meat (Beast Soldier Level), 500 grams, 1,000 Alliance Dollars!"

…

It was Chu Zhou's first time buying monster meat online. He gulped when he saw the ridiculous price of each of the monster meat.

It was too expensive.

The 100,000 Alliance Dollars he had on hand could only buy about 1.5 kilograms of Beast General Level meat.

His father earned 3,000 Alliance Dollars a month, which was 36,000 Alliance Dollars a year in total if they did not spend a single cent.

He could only buy a little more than a catty of the meat of this grade.

"High-grade monster meat is ridiculously expensive!"

Chu Zhou sighed and immediately ordered 10 catties of Iron Thorn Wild Boar meat.

The logistics company was very efficient. In just 15 minutes, the Iron Thorn Wild Boar meat he ordered was delivered to his door.

"Big Brother, what did you buy?"

Chu Yu, who was cooking, and his father, Chu Donglai, who had just finished bathing, saw Chu Zhou enter with a big bag of things. They both looked curious.

"This is 10 catties of Iron Thorn Wild Boar meat. I just ordered it online!"

Chu Zhou replied without hiding anything.

Chu Donglai frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Chu Yu pondered for a moment before suddenly realizing that the Iron Thorn Wild Boar meat was the Beast Soldier Level monster in her textbook.

She was shocked.

Monster meat was super expensive.

Big Brother actually bought 10 catties of Beast Soldier Level monster meat?

Where did the money come from?

Oh no… Her Big Brother was so handsome. Could he have sold himself as a gigolo to the rich and powerful sisters?
