With cannon fodder, become the best in the world

"No, wait a minute, Miss Zhou, we can bargain for the price, okay?" Jimo Changliu tried to stop Zhou Yun, but Zhou Yun was already walking very fast and was out the door with the box in her hand.

The shopkeeper winked at the clerk beside him, and the clerk quickly closed the door. We are all businessmen, so it's no big deal to be a little cunning.

Jimo Changliu's face darkened, and he glared at the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, what do you mean by this? It's not like I won't pay you."

The shopkeeper smiled warmly, "Master Changliu, you know, I often encounter some poor scoundrels who try to steal things here, so I spent a lot of money to hire a monk in the Wuxiang realm to take charge of the store."

Jimo Changliu pulled the corner of his mouth, smiled, and quickly took out the money and put it on the table. He really had no conscience at all. He gritted his teeth and said, "Swindler."

Seeing that he was straightforward, the shopkeeper smiled even warmer: "Thank you, Master Changliu, for your understanding. It's mutual."

As soon as Jimo Changliu went out, there was no trace of Zhou Yun. He felt like he had been badly cheated, even though he had cheated others in the same way.

Zhou Yun strode into the Jimo family's mansion with a gift for Jimo Yanzhou. The servant who opened the door was a little surprised to see her come back. She had clearly gone out with Jimo Changliu, so why didn't Master Changliu come with her?

The servant was just a door opener, so there was no need to ask any more questions. He just opened the door and let Zhou Yun enter the house.

After a while, the servant who opened the door saw Jimo Changliu with a very gloomy face. The servant scratched his head, feeling that Master Changliu had a murderous look in his eyes. He was so scared that he quickly lowered his head, fearing that he would be implicated.

Jimo Changliu was forced to pay Tianbao Pavilion five thousand gold coins. He felt a pang of pain in his heart. It seemed that he would have to negotiate a few more business deals. Money was being spent faster and faster, but it was becoming harder and harder to earn it. It was like spending money like water, and making money like catching ghosts.

When Zhou Yun came back, she saw the maid standing at the door, holding a food box and looking anxiously. When the maid saw Zhou Yun coming back, she quickly said, "Miss Zhou, you are finally back. I couldn't get in just now."

"Give me the food box, you go down first." Zhou Yun removed the formation at the gate and took the food box from the maid. The two monks just glanced at her. She entered the room and saw Jimo Yanzhou still lying there motionless.

Jimo Yanzhou didn't dare to move. There were still two cultivators monitoring him outside the courtyard gate. His damn system told him that they were all in the early Huiyang Realm. Zhou Yunxin was not around. The system chatted with him at first, but later ignored him. Such boring days really made him feel like the days were long.

He was just about to get up and complain to Zhou Yun, saying how pitiful he was, staying alone in the room, but he didn't dare to get out of bed for fear of being discovered. At this time, Zhou Yun came over and held his shoulders, preventing him from getting up, and handed him the beautifully carved and gold-inlaid box in her hand.

"What is this?" Jimo Yanzhou grabbed the box in his hand with a puzzled look and looked at Zhou Yun with burning eyes.

"A gift for you." Zhou Yun turned around and went back to the table, placing the food in the lunch box on the table.

"A gift for me?" Jimo Yanzhou hadn't expected Zhou Yun to bring him a gift when she went out. His heart was almost filled with happiness, and he hurriedly boasted to his system: "System, did you see that? Yun'er brought me a gift when she went out."

The system yawned lazily: "You gave Zhou Xiaomei so many things, isn't it natural for her to give you something in return? Look at you, you look so worthless, you really look stupid."

Jimo Yanzhou opened the wooden box and saw the emerald jade flute. His eyes suddenly lit up and were unusually bright: "System, this is a gift from Yun'er. This is the first time she has given me a gift. She actually gave me such an expensive gift."

System: You have given her quite a few gifts. Can you please control that silly expression on your face?

Jimo Yanzhou: How can it be the same? I gave her something because I was happy. I am happy to give Yun'er something. As long as Yun'er is happy, I am happy.

System: Do you know a game called Miracle Nikki? I think you are just playing that dress-up game. You have made this little girl so precious. Look at her body. Even the princesses of the royal family don’t have such a dazzling outfit. I think her parents have never dressed her so exquisitely. You have really put a lot of effort into it.

Jimo Yanzhou: She calls me brother, so of course I have to be nice to her.

System: Why do I feel that Zhou Xiaomei gave you a gift for another purpose? There is a famous saying that goes, "If someone shows kindness for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief."

Jimo Yanzhou said angrily: Damn system, you are not allowed to say that about my Yun'er. She is just a little girl, how could she have so many thoughts?

The system can only laugh: There is no hope for those who are mentally retarded in love. Never mind, respect the fate of others, enjoy a free life, do whatever you want, but this system has to remind you that if you are hurt by Zhou Xiaomei, it is your retribution, and you cannot blame others.

"Brother, are you hungry? I packed some food, you can eat some." Zhou Xiaomei's soft voice came.

"Okay." Jimo Yanzhou raised his head, and couldn't help but smile: Look, Yun'er is so good to me. Not only did she give me gifts, she also personally prepared food for me.

System: You are being nice to me for no reason. Why don't you understand? This is a big deal by Zhou Xiaomei. It doesn't look like a simple matter.

Jimo Yanzhou: Dog system, you should admit that you are jealous.

System: If you don’t listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer the consequences.

"Brother, can you sit up and eat by yourself?" Zhou Yun reminded.

Jimo Yanzhou sat up. Zhou Yun stuffed the bowl and chopsticks into his hands, then sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him with a smile.

Jimo Yanzhou: System, she is so well behaved!

System: Haha...you will regret it then.

Jimo Yanzhou: The food Yun'er gives us is delicious.

System: That’s enough…

"Yun'er, did you get this food from the kitchen in the mansion? Did they make things difficult for you when you were walking around in the mansion?" Jimo Yanzhou said this, and suddenly he became a little worried, "You went out of the mansion alone to buy me a gift, do you have enough money? Don't go out alone next time, there are many bad guys outside, and you are young, you will be cheated."

System: You can't even stop eating, so is the food in your stomach or in your brain? Who can outsmart Zhou Xiaomei's brain?

"The food was packed and brought back from a restaurant outside the city. Jimo Changliu accompanied me when I left the mansion." Zhou Yun brought the teacup over, "Brother, do you want some water?"

Jimo Yanzhou took a sip of water from the cup she handed over: "Jimo Changliu? Who is that?" He was confused. Brothers of the Jimo family? He had just returned home and had never seen his biological father, let alone other people.
