Quick Transmigration: Can This Kind of Scum Become the Chosen One?

Chapter 379: This NPC can drop 34 gold coins.

The fitness instructor carried Lu Ming to another piece of equipment.

"That one was worth 10,000, this one is worth 5,000, we're losing money."

Lu Ming looked at the fitness coach in disbelief. Wasn't 10,000 yuan supposed to cover everything?

"I only made a few scratches, and you want me to pay the original price?"

"These are all brand new ones that I bought. Now that they have these scratches, isn't it normal for you to compensate me for the original price?"

"You can pay me back and take these equipment with you, but don't accuse me of trying to extort you."

Actually, these were bought secondhand by the fitness coach. After all, if he were to buy a brand new set, it would cost hundreds of thousands of yuan.

However, he repainted it and maintained it well, so it looks almost brand new.

"Then I need to see your purchase history. What if you lie to me?"

Purchase records? He bought it online, so of course there are records.

The fitness instructor showed Lu Ming his payment receipt.

The total is 150,000.

This is the price for a used item; a brand new one would probably cost 500,000.

Lu Ming looked at the pile of metal lumps. This is what you're asking for? 150,000? What a rip-off.

Lu Ming didn't know anything about gym equipment. If he did, he would have exclaimed, "What a rip-off!"

He does have 150,000.

But if he gives away this 150,000, he will run out of money.

"If you sold these things secondhand, you could probably get tens of thousands of yuan for them."

I know someone who can introduce me to you.

Don't say I tricked you.

Finally, after a "friendly exchange" between the two parties, the fitness coach gave Lu Ming another 50,000 yuan as payment for the equipment.

Lu Ming felt he had been tricked, but it was also his own fault for clicking the button first.

Facing his fitness coach was like facing a mountain; Lu Ming dared not speak out against him.

She didn't even dare to ask her fitness coach to compensate her for medical expenses.

Lu Ming put on a mask to cover his bruised and swollen face.

He left, carrying a bag and limping.

It's difficult to find a suitable place to rent temporarily.

In addition, Lu Ming was heartbroken to have been scammed out of 100,000 yuan.

I had no choice but to find a small hotel to stay in for the time being.

Lu Ming wanted to find something cheaper at 200 yuan a day, but he was in so much pain from being beaten that he really didn't want to bother anymore.

And the cheaper ones probably won't have good sound insulation either.

Anyway, let's make some money first.

Lu Ming felt that as long as he maintained the previous pace, he would soon be able to earn another 100,000 yuan.

I feel terrible all over from being beaten up; some parts of my body hurt a lot.

Lu Ming went to the pharmacy and bought plasters and medicinal wine for treating sprains and bruises.

I already had experience from my last eye exam.

Hospitals are just places that rip you off.

It's nothing serious, I can just go to the pharmacy and get some medicine myself.

This is what happened when he got beaten up.

Apply some medicated wine and plaster, and rest in bed for a few days and you'll recover.

Lu Ming also bought a lot of food, and didn't plan to go out for the next few days.

The hotel staff paid for ten days directly.

As for what happens next, we'll see if he finds a place to stay. If not, he can stay a few more days. If he finds a place, he can check out.

This hotel is owned by the owner's family.

Lu Ming wanted to stay for an extended period, so the owner gave him a 20% discount.

They only charged 1,600 yuan for the room over ten days.

As long as Lu Ming feels comfortable living here, he can continue to live here.

If you can't find a suitable place to live outside, you can rent a room directly from him.

If you rent for a month, the boss can give you a discount; it'll be 4,000 a month.

Moreover, the hotel staff here can help with housekeeping.

The hotel also doesn't need to pay extra for utilities like water and electricity.

All facilities are complete; just ask the front desk if anything is missing.

If you rent a place outside, you have to prepare everything yourself.

If you do the math, it's not expensive at all.

If Lu Ming is willing to rent a room, the landlord can settle accounts monthly, allowing him to stay first and pay later – no problem.

Lu Ming was somewhat tempted. Four thousand a month, no worries about anything in the hotel, and comfortable accommodations.

Finding a place with similar conditions outside wouldn't be cheap.

Lu Ming said he would think about it and stay there to experience it first.

The boss said it was no problem.

The boss still made a profit at 4,000 a month.

That's 200 a day, that's the price listed at the front desk.

In fact, if you order online, it only costs 100 yuan per day.

Young people prefer to order online. Listing a 50% discount makes it seem like the customer is getting a good deal.

Lu Ming had no idea that he had been taken advantage of again.

I also felt the owner was a very honest person, so I gave him a discount since I was staying for a long time.

The room was the one furthest inside, which was quieter and less likely to be disturbed.

Lu Ming was quite satisfied.

Once we arrived at the room, we put our things down.

The room had air conditioning, so Lu Ming took off his clothes. His face was bruised and swollen, and his body wasn't much better off.

He was kicked in the chest several times, which will leave a very noticeable bruise.

I looked in the mirror and saw that I had injuries on my back as well.

His arms and legs were covered with scars of all sizes.

No wonder I feel pain all over.

Lu Ming took the medicinal wine and applied it to the areas he could reach; for the areas he couldn't reach, he could only apply plasters.

I took some more anti-inflammatory medicine and went to bed.

This morning, I was first disturbed by the alarm clock, then by the neighbors, and then by the landlord.

He barely slept.

I had been holding my breath for a while, but now that I've relaxed, I just feel a splitting headache.

I feel so awful.

Lu Ming still felt that he should take a nap first.

He won't be able to go on without sleeping.

In the game world, Jiang He discovered that Lu Ming was not there today.

Lu Ming has been coming to see her without fail during this period.

He didn't come on time today; it seems something happened.

This is a big deal.

Is this the unlucky charm really working its magic?

Did you cause them a lot of trouble?

It seems I can stop playing games now.

Starting today, Lu Ming will only ever be an unlucky player in the game; no good luck will ever come his way.

Lu Ming slept until evening.

When I woke up, the room was dark, with only the bathroom light on.

Lu Ming checked the time; it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

He slept from the afternoon until evening.

I need to hurry up and do the task.

Lu Ming had something to buy, so he simply found a loaf of bread.

While munching on bread, I connected my phone to the internet and logged into the game.

After sleeping, I didn't feel any improvement in my injuries; in fact, some areas hurt even more.

His face was visibly swollen, and eating bread made him feel very uncomfortable.

But the game is more important.

Lu Ming focused all his attention on the game, and his physical pain lessened.

But I'm really having bad luck today.

There are only three hours left until midnight. Normally, it would take about two to two and a half hours to complete the 100-ring challenge.

It depends on how many monster-hunting quests there are.

But the monster-hunting quest took longer today.

The number of monsters to fight has increased, and the time spent has increased.

Moreover, all 100 rounds are monster-hunting quests.

Tasks are no longer accepted directly after being posted.

He was also told to go to the front yard and the back yard first, and then go fight the monster.

The time allotted for the plot has been stretched out.

It wasted a lot of his time.

By midnight, Lu Ming still hadn't finished completing the 100-ring quest.

Three hours of work for nothing, everything has been refreshed.

Lu Ming was so angry that his chest ached, his stomach ached, and his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys all hurt. His whole body ached.
