Zeng Wei said gratefully, “Little Boss, I’m really so grateful for you.”
He was at a loss for words. His bathhouse had been reborn and business was suddenly booming. He had been caught unprepared.
“No need to thank me. We are all neighbors and we should help each other,” said Lin Fan calmly with a wave of his hand. Then, he smiled, “However, don’t think about that kind of stuff anymore in future. I come here to bathe occasionally as well. If you do those things, it’ll be too inconvenient.”
Zeng Wei nodded, “Right, right. I won’t. I definitely won’t.”
The next day!
The news blew up once more.
The experienced reporters had once again dug out the important news.
“D*mn, that awesome back-scrubbing Big Bro is actually Master Lin.”
“Who’s Master Lin?”
“Did your family just subscribe to an internet connection? To not even know Master Lin, where on earth have you been? Master Lin is the Godly Doctor, do you know now?”
“Why didn’t you say so earlier? Of course, I know about the Godly Doctor. He’s a f*cking incredible individual. But that’s not quite right. Why would the Godly Doctor be a back-scrubbing Little Bro?”
“You don’t know sh*t. That’s called being versatile. Amazing people are all versatile. So what if he’s a back-scrubber? Even if he becomes a toilet cleaner, I wouldn’t find it strange.”
“That makes sense.”
Cloud Street.
Lin Fan spread open his arms. “Come…”
The surrounding shop owners stared at Little Boss with their mouths gaping. Could there be something wrong with his brain?
Wu You Lan and Fraud Tian covered their faces. Did he not take his medicines that day? Why was he acting like a kid?
But nobody knew that Lin Fan was hearing the most beautiful sound.
“The eleventh task has been completed. Encyclopedic Points will be increased by 20.”
“Unlocking the twelfth page of knowledge. For it is the twelfth page of knowledge, a specialty of someone near the host will not be chosen.”
Wait a minute…
That’s not right.
Was the Encyclopedia broken? Why was it different from before?
Why wasn’t it following its usual routine?
“Does the host think that he has grasped the crux of the Encyclopedia’s knowledge unlocking? Actually, you are wrong. The Encyclopedia has the ability to recover from bugs.”
“Selecting from the classes of knowledge that the host has previously temporarily borrowed using Encyclopedic Points.”
“The host has only borrowed two classes of knowledge before. Unlocking the sub-class of the computer major class of knowledge: Computer Hacking.”
“Task: To become the revered Master Lin.”
“Reward: Encyclopedic points +20 and the ability to unlock the thirteenth page of knowledge.”
“Notice: Since it is a sub-class of knowledge, there is no need to be involved in the profession.”
“Current Encyclopedic Points: 2”
Lin Fan stood at the same spot, silently gazing into the sky.
Was this Encyclopedia retarded?
“Ahh, thank god. Being kind-hearted really reaps rewards. Finally, a reliable class of knowledge. What kind of society are we in right now? It’s the era of Internet information! I’ve always been computer illiterate but now, I’ve become a god. This is really a joyous occasion! If the Encyclopedia could be like this from now on, that would really be great,” Lin Fan celebrated in his heart.
Good man!
Good Encyclopedia.
Very humane.
“Hehe!” Lin Fan stood there laughing. He was laughing very happily.
Fraud Tian mumbled, “Something must have gone wrong with this kid. Who would just make such a silly laugh in front of his shop in broad daylight for no reason?”
Wu You Lan had a worried look on her face as she took out her phone and searched for the best psychiatrist. “When we have the time, let’s bring him to see a psychiatrist.”
Zhao Zhong Yang said in a hurt tone, “What has happened to my idol…”
Fraud Tian gathered his courage and asked, “Are you okay?”
Lin Fan regained his senses. He said innocently, “I’m okay. I’m perfectly fine. I’m just happy. Fraud, your performance has been pretty good lately. This month, your salary will be increased by a hundred.”
When Fraud Tian heard that, he was filled with gratitude. “Ah, Brother Lin, you are really too good to me. You’re my idol!”
Lin Fan smiled. Just a hundred dollars and he managed to buy someone’s heart. How fantastic.
Meanwhile, Fraud Tian turned around and nodded at everyone. His meaning was clear. There was really a problem with Lin Fan. And it wasn’t a light problem.
…
Lin Fan was delighted. He didn’t expect to obtain such a great class of knowledge for the twelfth page. With a computer in his hand, the world would be within his grasps.
But wait a moment…
The task was once again to ‘become the revered Master Lin’ and there was an issue with that.
Hacking experts always remained in the shadows and did not reveal themselves. Then, no one would know who he was. If he was exposed, that would be bad.
D*mn, this is problematic.
But it didn’t matter. There was no rush at the moment.
After all, it wasn’t a compulsory task. He could take it slowly. Recently, to complete the back-scrubbing task, he had been doing things in a rush. How could a quiet and calm person like him allow life to be at such a quick pace? Of course, he had to slow it down and take things leisurely.
A while later.
Lin Fan went to a shop nearby to buy a computer. As a computer god, how could he not have a computer?
In the shop.
The computer seller, Lil’ Wang, was just assembling a computer. Lin Fan said, “Lil’ Wang, is this computer okay? Will it hang?”
Lil’ Wang smiled, “Little Boss, you’re worrying even though I’m the one selling it? If I assemble this computer for someone else, it would cost twelve thousand but for you, it’s just eight thousand. That’s already a very good price. The installations in this computer are great. Even running a few games at the same time wouldn’t be an issue.”
Lin Fan nodded, “Alright then, I only want a good one, not a lousy one. But if it’s twelve thousand, then I’ll pay twelve thousand. You run a shop and you need to earn money. Otherwise, what’s the point of running a shop?”
Lil’ Wang was a young man and he admired Lin Fan greatly. Especially because opening a shop on Cloud Street felt very safe, the neighbors had a very good relationship with each other.
There were even many neighbors who wanted to introduce girlfriends to Lil’ Wang. This made him very shy.
Fraud Tian and the rest were discussing.
“Something’s wrong. Something’s very wrong. There’s definitely something wrong with the kid today.”
Zhao Zhong Yang nodded, “I feel that way too. Little Boss usually doesn’t really play computer games but now he spends such a large sum to buy a computer, how could there not be an issue?”
Wu You Lan said worriedly, “Could it be that he’s been under too much stress lately and it’s causing him to be nervous?”
Wu Tian He shook his head, “I don’t think so. Perhaps he’s just getting a computer for entertainment and relaxation.”
“I hope so.”
After installing the computer, Lin Fan delightedly tried using it. It felt pretty good.
“This computer is my personal property. I won’t lend it to any of you to play with it,” Lin Fan put a passcode on the computer and said with a smile.
Fraud Tian waved his hand. “We won’t play with it. We won’t even touch it. As long as you’re happy.”
“Right, right…” Zhao Zhong Yang realized that there was something very wrong with Little Boss and felt a little worried as well.
A few days passed quickly and the twelfth page of knowledge hadn’t been used much yet. However, Lin Fan wasn’t anxious. He was thinking about something.
Zhao Ming Qing had asked him to write Chinese medicine teaching materials. It was a significant matter to Zhao Ming Qing as well as Lin Fan. It was meant to teach people who were just beginning to learn Chinese medicine. If he wasn’t serious when writing it and problems occur, it would be troublesome.
Sitting in front of the table, Lin Fan held a pen and was deep in thought.
He was going through the Encyclopedia’s Chinese medical knowledge in his mind. At the same time, he was arranging all the beginners’ knowledge systematically in his heart.
After thinking for a while, he arrived at the first draft plan.
Chinese Medicine Entry-level Books:
‘Foundational Chinese Medicine’, ‘Chinese Medicine Diagnosis Studies’, ‘Chinese Medical Studies’, ‘Prescription Studies’ These were the four beginner-level books.
With a rough idea, he knew how he should arrange the knowledge.
He would organize these four beginner-level books, adding in his own opinions, presented in an easy-to-understand manner for beginners.
If he made the books profound and hard to understand just to show off his knowledge, that wouldn’t be advantageous.
He would make the books simpler, such that as long as the reader focused while reading it, it would be rewarding.
To Chinese doctors, this would be a great help and to Lin Fan, there was much to gain from this as well. From that day onwards, he wouldn’t have to be afraid of not having enough Encyclopedic Points.
