Generally, university graduates—especially those from outside the city—have to spend money upfront to rent a one-month apartment upon arriving in this city. Once they secure housing, they must wake up early and go back late every day to attend job fairs across various talent markets. Their resumes need to be polished and professional; just the costs of typing and photocopying add up significantly. Plus, there are expenses for round-trip transportation, meals, lodging, and all other daily living costs. Remember, in the coastal reform-driven city of Hanhai, living costs remain high. For an ordinary university graduate aiming to find work here over a one-month period, the expenses are truly staggering. Moreover, after enduring numerous rounds of resume submissions, interviews, trial periods, and formal hiring processes, securing a satisfactory job is a significant challenge. Many graduates arrive with enthusiasm only to leave with disappointment—or simply unable to sustain themselves, requiring financial support from their parents. Without such support, they face the risk of running out of funds. In short, they are drifting, wandering as sojourners.
The migrant worker, truly, finds it difficult to survive in this modern metropolis. Starting a business requires not only capital but also strong social networks—something I won’t elaborate on further. Now, let’s talk about how our protagonist can earn a living. Although he is a resident of the city, his family falls within the category of urban low-income households, receiving social support and assistance. Yet, the Huang family has not received such aid. In this situation, self-reliance and perseverance are essential. "A man should be self-reliant!" Huang still says this. (⊙o⊙) Indeed, with age comes the need to be strong and earn more money—only by earning more can he afford university tuition and ensure his parents don’t have to work tirelessly just to make ends meet. First, build a solid financial foundation; then, launch his business. After reviewing numerous job and entrepreneurship resources, Huang’s vision became clear. But how can he obtain this initial capital? How can he earn it? Huang found himself at a loss.
Immediately recalled the game "The Journey of Tang Dynasty Online II: The Moonlight Box." The last time, he had voluntarily given up his professional player contract, securing only 1,000 yuan—now, could he earn again? He immediately opened his super portable computer in his room at home and logged in. Wow! While this game still generates income, the number of users has grown tremendously, and the profit margin has significantly declined. If he doesn't earn quickly, the tuition fees might fall through. He felt completely stuck. At that moment, his parents called from outside the room, "Liang! Someone has arrived! Come out and meet them!" Hearing his parents' cheerful voices, High-Liang wondered who it was. He promptly opened the door and saw a graceful young woman entering. Wow! She's his wife!
Zhang Yuping arrived today wearing a beautiful dress, her hair neatly styled, her bust beautifully shaped with a well-defined contour, her hips smoothly tapered, and her abdomen flat—just perfect! As soon as she entered, the whole room was filled with a pleasant fragrance. With a beautiful woman energizing and refreshing the atmosphere, high spirits lifted, and with a sparkling gaze, she looked at Zhang Yuping and said, "Honey! How come you've come all the way to visit me today? Are you missing me?" "You're so talkative!" Zhang Yuping replied seriously. "I'm here to discuss something with you—I'm not staying around for small talk!" After saying that, she promptly walked away. "My father has already raised 20,000 yuan. If your family is in need, I can lend you an additional 10,000 yuan," Zhang Yuping said, then pulled out a bundle of money from her sleeve—exactly 20,000 yuan. From that bundle, she handed over a stack of 10,000 yuan, but Gao Liang didn't reach out to take it. "Where did you get this?" Gao
"High light was as thorough as a household census, questioning Zhang Yuping—such a spirited, self-assured girl who valued her dignity. Upon seeing High Light's attitude toward her, she immediately pouted and said, 'High Light, I came with good intentions to help you, yet you don't appreciate it at all. Either you take it or not!' With that, she looked ready to walk away. 'No! I'll manage it myself! Take the money back!' High Light's tone remained cold. 'Well, High Light! If you're so ungrateful, then let's call it off. From now on, we'll neither acknowledge nor care for each other!' Zhang Yuping was fully prepared to part ways. Of course, this was all said in a moment of urgency. After speaking, she collected her money and walked off. High Zhongming and Shen Hanyu, seeing their beautiful classmate leave so soon after arriving, visibly upset, quickly stepped in to apologize on behalf of their son, saying, 'Zhang Yuping, did Bright treat you unfairly?' 'Go ask your son!' Zhang Yuping replied, turning right and walking away without a backward glance."
At that moment, Gao Hong burst out excitedly, "I've finally come up with a way to earn money! Haha!"
His parents looked puzzled at him. Mother Shen Hanyu sighed and said to Gao Hong, "Liang, look at you! The girl came all the way from afar to our house, and in less than three minutes, you've already made her upset. If one day you marry, I wonder how you'll manage with your current temperament!"
"Mom! Dad! I want to earn my own money—money I earn myself to pay for school!" Gao Hong said with confidence.
"Oh, now it's not easy to earn money, son," Father Gao Zhongming sighed, naturally expressing little hope that Gao Hong would succeed. "If you can't pay back your tuition fees within three days, I'll go back to the warehouse and carry cement myself!"
"I believe that with this effort, I can definitely make it!" Gao Hong tightened his fists once again.
Then, entering his room, Gao Hong whispered to himself, "I want to enter the Yueguang Treasure Box space!" But after calling it several times, there was still no response.
"Master! Your ability has far from reached the divine level, so you don't yet possess the right to enter the Yue Guang Treasure Box space at will! However, if you can bring one person with you!" Ying'er's voice resonated—this time, Ying'er didn't appear physically; her words were exchanged through brainwave consciousness.
"Ying'er, can we practice dual cultivation together?" Gao Liang asked. "No, we can't! I'm from the Immortal Realm, and you're from the Human Realm—we're..." "Alright, I get it!" Gao Liang interrupted Ying'er. Practicing dual cultivation—this was something Gao Liang often encountered while playing games.
