Chapter 829: Chapter 318: He Gave So Much
Wang Xiaoxiao was completely woken up by the noise in her dreams.
Originally, because Zhou Wang had gotten her drunk last night, she slept quite soundly. But when Jiang Mubai went out, he accidentally kicked her, which made her feel somewhat half-awake. Additionally, Jiang Mubai didn’t close the bedroom door, which led to her discomfort when a faintly emerging song started to float up not long after.
Jiang Mubai didn’t know if he was doing it intentionally or if that was just his nature, but the singing grew louder and eventually Wang Xiaoxiao couldn’t pretend not to hear anymore.
At first, she didn’t want to care about it, but later she couldn’t hold back her curiosity. She quietly put on a coat, got out of bed, and sneaked to the staircase.
When she saw the scene in the living room, Wang Xiaoxiao’s face instantly turned crimson, and she couldn’t help but let out a scream.
Then, Zhou Wang caught that scream.
Zhou Wang looked up, and without saying or doing anything, just that one glance made Wang Xiaoxiao feel unstable and she slid down against the wall.
Watching Zhou Wang suddenly release Jiang Mubai and walk towards her, she knew she couldn’t escape this time.
This time, she was really going to be woken up.
…
“Still not enough restraint!”
When everything quieted down and Zhou Wang was having breakfast with Wang Xiaoxiao, it was already noon, a realization that made Zhou Wang sigh.
Fortunately, the duration of the [Endless Blade] was 24 hours, wasting just over an hour, which was not so bad. Besides, critical strikes aren’t triggered 100% of the time, so one can’t spend mindlessly. At that moment, Zhou Wang entered the Wise Man’s Time, and his thoughts became much clearer, which could be considered a benefit in disguise.
After sipping some freshly-ground soy milk, Zhou Wang suddenly remembered something and glanced up at the two somewhat disheveled girls opposite him.
“By the way, you both don’t have suitable clothes to wear, right?”
“Uh-huh!”
Upon hearing Zhou Wang’s question, they both nodded promptly.
When they arrived yesterday, they were wearing light innerwear and a windbreaker each. Now, the innerwear was in disarray, and with just a windbreaker left, they couldn’t go out.
Zhou Wang thought about it and directly dialed Huang Duming’s number.
“Ah?”
Huang Duming paused in difficulty: “Mr. Zhou, LV, Chanel, and Dior shouldn’t be too big of a problem, but Hermes might be a bit difficult, especially in a city like Beidou. It’s quite difficult to get them to deliver a service…”
“It’s fine, just contact them. If it doesn’t work… Use my name.”
Zhou Wang responded calmly.
“Uh… Okay, Mr. Zhou.”
Although unsure of Zhou Wang’s confidence, Huang Duming quickly agreed.
After hanging up the call with Huang Duming, Zhou Wang considered doing a little experiment first. Upon confirming that the [Endless Blade] in the warehouse was indeed shimmering, he switched to his phone and started to top up his own mobile balance.
He paid 10,000, no response.
Paid another 10,000, still no response.
It wasn’t until the third time he paid 10,000 that the system prompt finally sounded.
Ding!
[Consumption behavior detected in Host, successfully triggered the critical effect of “Endless Blade”, gaining triple cashback]
Ding dong!
“CMB: Your account ending in 1111 received a payment of RMB 30,000 on September 20 at 12:21. Memo: Interest.”
In the 2 to 10 times range, triggering 3 times on the first try is decent enough.
What reassured Zhou Wang, however, was that he was swiping with a credit card, which meant he had more funds available to utilize.
Maybe… borrow a bit more from someone?
But just as Zhou Wang conceived this idea, he received a system warning, realizing it was a hidden restriction, he regretfully dropped the thought.
Otherwise, Zhou Wang believed with his current connections and standing with Ming City Commercial Bank, he could fund at least a couple hundred million in the short term.
While waiting for a few brand stores to deliver, Zhou Wang idly noticed his phone balance approaching fifty thousand, far beyond immediate use. So he topped up his parents’ phones with ten thousand each.
Then, Zhou Wang ran through his contact list, ensuring anyone he was slightly closer to got ten thousand topped up on their phone.
Even Jiang Mubai and Wang Xiaoxiao weren’t exceptions.
The two girls were somewhat puzzled, was this some kind of post-event subsidy?
But… who would use phone top-ups for that!
After topping up over three hundred thousand in phone credits, even the bank’s personal account manager called to warn Zhou Wang to be cautious of “cashback scams.” That prompted him to stop.
Then Zhou Wang considered that since topping up wouldn’t show a name, he directly posted on his social media.
“My brothers and sisters, dear friends and family, if you suddenly receive a text showing a $10,000 phone credit recharge, don’t panic or doubt. Yes, it’s me… Don’t ask why, just say I had a coupon. Treat it as a small benefit from me.”
Once posting on his social media, Zhou Wang logged out of WeChat and began to check the account balance of the 370,000 phone credits he just added.
Out of 37 transactions, 8 triggered cashbacks, with three achieving over 8 times, and one lucky one reaching 10 times.
This means just those three cashbacks returned 260,000 to Zhou Wang, along with the other five cashbacks, not only did he recover the 370,000 expense completely, he also earned an extra 60,000.
