This is too hilarious!

35. The unique way those carrying house bags make money

Feng Jue and He Qing found themselves getting along very well as they talked.

Bai Hui mostly listened, occasionally chiming in with a few words, only to be met with eye rolls from the two men.

Because Bai Hui had always wanted to know whether those spots for "private martial arts instruction" could actually be sold...

Because he is genuinely short of money, and at the same time, he is probably not short of the so-called "private martial arts instruction".

If Bai Hui really wanted to learn martial arts, he figured he would discuss it with the student who bought his "private martial arts instruction" spot beforehand, so that the student could learn the skills and then challenge him to a duel to prove that he was "truly excellent"...

It doesn't seem to have any problems.

During this process, Bai Hui can secretly learn martial arts. By then, he will have earned money and learned martial arts at the same time, which is a win-win situation!

As for whether or not one can learn it...

Are simple lines meant to be eaten dry?

If all else fails, there's always [Ultimate Color]!

Bai Hui thought this idea had great potential!

It's a pity that He Qing and the other person didn't approve, or rather, didn't understand...

Besides, Bai Hui also learned from their conversation what the so-called "Nightmare Artifact - Room Bag" actually was.

Simply put, this thing is a bag that looks like the size of a palm on the outside, but inside there is a 10-square-meter "one-bedroom" house-like space!

It's a portable shelter where you can move in normally!

Although it requires offerings with spiritual energy, and if one takes on the burden of a "house bag" at a young age, it is easy to develop some bad habits, such as "house-buying anxiety," "area anxiety," "house price concern," "appreciation curse," and so on.

In addition, you might hear terms like "shared area" or "down payment ratio," which can send chills down your spine!

In addition, the mental energy required to cultivate certain emotions such as "endurance," "compromise," and "numbness" every month can easily have a serious impact on the quality of a martial artist's mental energy over time!

The most direct impact is that, over time, a martial artist's mental state will gradually become dominated by these emotions!

At that point, the "Heart Demon" can no longer be called a "Heart Demon"...

It's at most a matter of mental effort...

Moreover, that thing is, after all, a "Nightmare Artifact," and although its living area can be continuously increased, it grows day by day like a living organism.

But the pressure that comes with it will also increase.

If one doesn't manage the burden well, those burdened by mortgages are likely to become hunched over, gradually become depressed, and even become new "mortgage slaves"!

However, if one can grasp it well, then its erosion of a martial artist's mind and body can be regarded as a kind of tempering of the heart!

As for Feng Jue and He Qing, they were able to condense their inner energy at this time and stand out from most of their peers. Naturally, they had "absolute confidence" in this matter.

Young people are always ambitious, thinking they can do anything!

And that is why their inner demons are most active!

If one can obtain the "Nightmare Artifact: House Bag", then regardless of the consequences, at least one will have a place to stay on a daily basis. Although living there for a long time may make one introverted and a homebody, it can at least guarantee one's livelihood to a minimum.

By offering spiritual nourishment, the money saved from renting and maintaining a house can be used for other purposes.

For a long time, these strange artifacts, which have evolved from ghost stories, have indeed been something that many people yearn for.

Especially for Feng Jue, if he were to take on the "house bag" (a metaphor for a powerful family member), he would have more room for error in dealing with the fake people in his family!

"At your age, this is not the time to be thinking about these things."

Uncle Zhong suddenly said, "Your most urgent task right now is to study hard. Improving your grades is better than anything else."

The best time to do the right thing is when; carrying burdens too early will crush you.

Feng Jue and He Qing remained silent.

Uncle Zhong added, "However, if Xiao Hui wants to, he can try... You're no longer a normal teenager, and it's time for you to start thinking about these things."

Feng Jue and the other man didn't think much of it, assuming that Uncle Zhong was only saying that because he was considering Bai Hui's family situation.

But Bai Hui knew that Uncle Zhong's words probably still carried a hint of that 'miracle'...

……

The discussion continued into the afternoon, but Li Youye seemed completely absorbed, and it was unclear whether he was actually listening or not.

After searching around, Bai Hui successfully found the instant coffee that the original owner had purchased, which the original owner used to stay alert while studying... However, insufficient rest was one of the reasons why the original owner's sanity eventually returned to zero.

Bai Hui didn't plan to use this stuff to stay awake right now; it was just sitting there anyway. He intended to use it to make money.

After discussion, the three of them decided to give Bai Hui 20 yuan per person per meal, three meals a day, totaling 60 yuan per person per day, for a total of 180 yuan for food expenses. The auntie would then buy the groceries and prepare meals according to their individual circumstances.

Actually, the cook could do even better, but that would cost more money.

For high school students like them, 20 yuan a meal is not expensive and they can afford it.

Feng Jue and Li Youye suggested raising the price further, but the former needed to discuss it with the fake person in his family and pay Bai Hui in a way similar to "tutoring fees".

As for the latter... he'll contribute whatever amount others contribute.

As for what the situation is, she wants to wait a few days to see the actual results before making a decision. She vaguely mentioned that her family situation is not good either. She is from a single-parent family and her mother is bedridden. Therefore, she often uses her spare time to do some small part-time jobs.

That's why she was able to condense her inner energy so early; otherwise, her body would have given out long ago...

She also mentioned that if Bai Hui was also interested in this, she could help introduce him to a part-time job.

At this moment, Li Youye seemed to belatedly realize something and suddenly said, "Oh right, were you guys just talking about the 'Nightmare Artifact: Room Bag'?"

Bai Hui said speechlessly, "We've been chatting all afternoon, and you're only just realizing it?"

Li Youye chuckled without explaining, then said with feigned seriousness, "I've heard that those who carry the burden of the house bag have special ways of making money..."

"Oh?" Bai Hui's interest was piqued. "Through what means?"

He Qing was clearly very concerned. After all, Li Youye was someone who could freely access the internet at this time, and in terms of information acquisition, he was indeed much better than them.

"Think about it, a mortgage is like a portable residence, right? As a nightmare device, its privacy is definitely top-notch..."

Li Youye winked and said, "I've heard that some adults use this to earn extra money, by selling themselves..."

"What are you betraying?" He Qing pressed.

Bai Hui's face darkened. He snapped out of his daze and quickly slapped Li Youye across the face, shoving his head away and yelling, "You son of a bitch! Don't you dare say another word!"

The Nightmare Artifact: The Room Bag can be used like this?!

However, there does seem to be some merit to the claims regarding portability and privacy...

But that's it—

What on earth does this guy watch online all day long?!
