“Stop showing off and give it to me straight, are you going or not?” Qin Yanan urged him as she saw him putting on airs.
“Could you be a little nicer? Is that how you ask for a favor?” Tang Feng, with his legs crossed, frowned in dissatisfaction.
“So how should I be, then? You want me to kneel for you?” Qin Yanan said, standing with her hands on her hips and glaring at him in annoyance.
But speaking of, this woman really does have a slender waist, looks like it could be circled with just a hand.
Tang Feng immediately took advantage of the situation, “That would work. As long as you kneel, I’ll go right away.”
“Go to hell.” Qin Yanan walked over to kick him but missed as he dodged, and she ended up kicking the sofa frame, causing tears to well up from the pain.
Tang Feng spent a good amount of time apologizing and comforting her before she finally broke into a smile through her tears.
“I’m not joking with you, haven’t you been looking for a job lately? Why not stop looking and come help me out instead?”
Rubbing her foot, Qin Yanan added another condition, “A salary of fifty thousand plus commission. For any good items you bring in, I’ll give you five percent commission on the item, how’s that? Think it over?”
Seeing how far she took the conversation, Tang Feng found it hard to refuse.
Even though he no longer cared about the tens of thousands, he couldn’t just snub Qin Yanan’s offer.
After hesitating for a moment, he nodded in agreement, “Okay, but I don’t like being tied down, so I won’t be stuck at your antique shop every day.”
Qin Yanan immediately lit up with joy, “No problem, the work hours are flexible. You don’t need to keep shop. There are other appraisers in the store, and you only need to come over and take a look when they can’t be sure of an item.”
With the business settled, Tang Feng began to joke around again, “Sis, you’re really confident in me? Aren’t you afraid I’ll misjudge something and cause you to go bankrupt?”
Qin Yanan chuckled confidently, “I trust my own judgment, and I won’t misjudge a person. You’re definitely going to become a master appraiser, so I need to latch onto your coattails early.”
Tang Feng glanced at her thighs, “You might not know this, but a man has three legs. I wonder which one you want to latch onto.”
Qin Yanan flashed a charming smile, slowly bending down and picking up a fruit knife from the fruit plate on the coffee table, “I don’t really care, you tell me which one you want me to latch onto, and I’ll hold on to that one.”
Tang Feng immediately shivered, “Sis, it’s getting late, I need to rest. You should head back soon.”
“Don’t rush, let’s talk some more about latching onto big thighs.”
“No need to talk, choose whichever leg you want to latch onto, no need to consult me.”
“Didn’t you say a man has three legs? I’m really curious, let me take a look.”
“No need to look, really.”
“But I really want to see.”
“Don’t come any closer; I’ll call for help if you do.”
“Go on, yell. Even if you scream your lungs out today, it won’t do any good.”
“Help…”
After more roughhousing, Qin Yanan, in the end, did not get to see the third leg.
Tang Feng knew her too well, this woman always said one thing and did another.
She could say anything, but if you actually ask her to do something real, she’d run faster than anyone.
They had agreed that he would go to her store the next afternoon to take over.
After seeing Qin Yanan off, Tang Feng sat back down on the sofa and entered the system interface to explore the newly appeared store after the upgrade.
Just as he clicked on the store page, a list of items appeared.
“Piano Mastery lv1, exchange needed: 100,000.”
“Horsemanship Mastery lv1, exchange needed: 150,000.”
“Culinary Mastery lv1, exchange needed: 200,000.”
“Driving Mastery lv1, exchange needed: 300,000.”
“…”
Tang Feng, staring at the densely packed list of items, wanted to curse “rip-off”.
This is way too expensive, isn’t it?
Culinary Mastery alone requires two hundred thousand?
But after thinking about it more carefully, it actually seemed quite reasonable.
If you went to a vocational school to learn to cook, you’d probably spend quite a bit of money too.
More importantly, it would take a lot of time.
But if you exchange it in the system, you’d learn it right away.
For someone as rich as he, time is far more valuable than money.
After browsing for a while, he eventually selected Martial Arts Mastery.
When he was a child watching action movies, he often imagined himself as the male lead, shaking his body and fighting valiantly.
Of course, “action movies” here is to be taken literally, please don’t read into it.
Now that he had such an opportunity, he wouldn’t let it pass.
“System prompt: Exchange for Martial Arts Mastery lv1, after the exchange, the host will possess the strength to fight ten men. This exchange will cost 100,000 Hua Country currency, do you confirm the exchange?”
If this was before, a hundred thousand would have seemed like an astronomical amount to him.
But now, he was at least multi-millionaire, so one hundred thousand was just a drop in the bucket for him.
Without any hesitation, he clicked exchange.
Immediately after, he felt a cool sensation spread throughout his body, and there was a tingly feeling inside, as if he was being cleansed from the inside out.
This sensation of coolness lasted a good fifteen minutes.
“System prompt: Martial Arts Mastery lv1 exchange successful, the host now possesses the strength to fight ten men…”
Once the system prompt was complete, he immediately got up and jumped around. He felt much more agile than before.
And he didn’t usually exercise much, so his body was quite soft and flabby.
But now when he touched himself, his muscles felt taut.
He immediately took off his jacket and rushed into the bathroom to check the mirror.
Contours of chest and abdominal muscles started to appear on his body.
Although not yet clearly defined, they were filled with a sense of power.
At that moment, he felt like an invincible master, and really wanted to go out and challenge someone to a fight.
If this is just lv1, what would lv2 be like?
Eager to find out, he entered the system store again.
