Stranger Things?

Zhou Chang’s first reaction was that with this kind of order, she didn’t even have the chance to talk to the person.

It is too difficult to get the supply.

But she was poor and had little ambition, so she could only ask: "As long as it's something like this, it's fine, right? It doesn't have to be smoked by that man, right?"

The viewpoint system still gave the same answer as before: "The customer placed an order for a specific item."

"Do the clients in your dimension have any serious illness? Do they want even those that have been touched by other people's saliva?" Thinking of this, Zhou Chang didn't even want to get involved.

The middle-aged man with a mustache and a slender waist looked a bit greasy.

"This system does not comment on customer needs." The Viewpoint system gives the official standard answer.

"I refuse to accept this order." Zhou Chang didn't even know who the other party was, so how could he accept such an order?

"..." The viewpoint system remained silent.

Zhou Chang suddenly felt unhappy, but he heard the excited tone of Mr. Wu, the accountant, and bowed his hands as a greeting: "Hey, Master You, why did you come here in person?"

The man with a mustache and a slender waist called "Master You" looked to be around 40 years old, at least a generation younger than the accountant Wu.

However, when he saw the accountant Wu saluting him, although he put down the thin bamboo tube in his hand, he did not return the greeting. Instead, he glanced at him arrogantly and winked behind him.

Accountant Wu followed his gaze and discovered that there was a dark red and silver carriage parked behind the Lanny carriage. He immediately became excited and lowered his voice, "Could it be that the boss has come in person?"

Master You, with a slender waist, shook his head, a little worried. "Alas, the boss was arrested and taken to the Ministry of Justice yesterday and was imprisoned. The young master came here in person, otherwise you guys would have been imprisoned for who knows how long."

"Young Master?" Accountant Wu was even more astonished. "Since we have all been released, why would the boss...?"

Master You, with a slender waist, looked serious and raised his hand to stop him: "This is not the place to talk."

Accountant Wu quickly shut up.

"Come with me. They can't get him out, so we can only ask Mr. Wu what the situation is with this trip. The young master must understand the situation first so that we can know what to do next." The slender-waisted Master You put the thin bamboo tube in his arms, turned around and got on the carriage first.

"Hey, hey..." Accountant Wu agreed hurriedly.

Just as he was about to get on the carriage, he found Zhou Chang still standing behind him stupidly.

"If we go back to East City, could Mr. You please take this young man with you? He is my neighbor." Accountant Wu made the request.

The slender-waisted Master You had already disappeared into the blue carriage and agreed casually: "It's okay, get on the carriage quickly, the young master is very worried."

Then the two of them got on the carriage one after another.

The three people in the carriage were silent.

But seeing that Mr. You and the accountant Wu were both frowning, Zhou Chang knew that the matter of the so-called "Mirage Kingdom spies" was by no means a simple excuse made up by the government to make money.

It was unknown how long the carriage had been traveling. The accountant Wu Liao opened the curtain and looked twice before he stopped the carriage, let Zhou Chang down, and told her to tell her family and that he would be back later.

Zhou Chang agreed and watched the dark red and silver gauze carriage in front and the blue carriage behind, continuing to move eastward.

Afterwards, relying on the stuttering clerk's memory, Zhou Chang first sent a message to the accountant Wu's family, and then returned to "his" own home.

After they got home, they found out that they had been locked up for two days and one night without their family knowing about it.

When the parents saw the stutterer, they were overjoyed.

The stuttering guy had never spoken clearly and he rarely spoke at home.

Zhou Chang just let his parents hug him and ask about his well-being, without wasting any words on conversation.

Afterwards, she handed over the few taels of silver she had earned and said that she was grateful to the accountant, Mr. Wu, for taking care of her along the way.

The stuttering guy's parents were even more overjoyed when they thought about it.

I didn't expect that my son could earn nearly five taels of silver in just a few months, which was equivalent to the family's annual income. I even told my son to pack a silver envelope, at least one tael, and bring two chickens to Mr. Wu's house to express my gratitude.

This is what Zhou Chang meant. After all, she took the accountant Wu's Bodhi bracelet for free, and she felt bad about it.

Afterwards, the family had dinner, and Zhou Chang couldn't wait to rush into the stuttering waiter's room.

There was no need to light a lamp. It took a long time to calm my mind and concentrate on transmitting the Bodhi bracelet.

"Ding, congratulations, the transaction is completed, and you get a commission of fifteen taels." The viewpoint system displays the interface.

[Level: Lower 98]

【Commission: 15 taels】

【Order: 1】

There was nothing special, but Zhou Chang paid attention to the bottom line.

"Why is the order still hanging there? Didn't I say I wouldn't accept it?" Zhou Chang immediately thought of the strange bamboo pipe.

Viewpoint System: "As long as the customer does not cancel the order, the order will remain valid."

"Whatever you want." Zhou Chang didn't hold out any hope for this order, and then made a wish, "I hope that when I wake up tomorrow morning, I can level up three times to the 'lower ninety-five' level and change my identity to a vendor."

"Upgrading to the 'lower ninety-five' level is no problem." The viewpoint system replied.

Zhou Chang felt relieved and fell headfirst onto the quilt-covered bed and fell into a deep sleep.

******

The next morning, when Zhou Chang opened his eyes, he found himself lying face down on a bed covered with straw.

"Uh..." She supported herself to stand up and wanted to take a look at her surroundings, but the pain all over her body made her fall back again.

Looking down again, he seemed to be wearing a coarse linen and gray clothes.

Almost at the same time, consciousness merged.

Prison uniform?

Manager Li?

……

Zhou Chang simply shut himself off for a quarter of an hour.

Her new identity turned out to be Manager Li, who always had a big wooden stick on the boat.

And this Manager Li, unsurprisingly, was being held in the prison of the Ministry of Justice.

"Why, why, why...?" Zhou Chang had a hundred thousand questions in his mind.

The voice of the viewpoint system also appeared in his mind: "To upgrade your identity, you must be someone within your sight, otherwise this system will not have the data."

"You mean, if you want to become the emperor, you have to meet the emperor first?" Zhou Chang drew inferences from one example.

"Correct." The neutral voice in the viewpoint system was emotionless.

"Have I never seen a vendor before?" Zhou Chang retorted, but he was still unsure. He immediately thought of a key question, "No, Manager Li is the manager. I remember the manager's rank is even higher. How can he be the 'lower ninth five'?"

"It is true that the level of the person in charge is 'lower nine four', but because this plane follows the social rule of male superiority and female inferiority, according to the algorithm, women in the same industry will be demoted one level." The viewpoint system replied.

"Why should women's social status be downgraded?" Zhou Chang was angry, but almost immediately became discouraged.

Not to mention this plane, even the plane she lived in in her previous life was already a modern society with open science and technology and culture. How much fairness could be achieved in terms of gender equality?

Therefore, there is no point in discussing this issue.

Zhou Chang could only remind himself in his heart that next time he wanted to change his identity, he must consider it carefully.

He struggled to stand up with his hands, enduring the pain all over his body, and finally got up from the wooden bed in the cell.

It has been the third day since Manager Li was imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice.

I was first interrogated yesterday. No questions were asked to me, but I was beaten with twenty "killing sticks" and then thrown back into the cell. As a result, my wounds have not healed yet and almost every part of my back hurts.

Looking around, there was nothing in this cold, stone, dark and damp space except a hard wooden bed.

Seeing the prison again, Zhou Chang couldn't even breathe smoothly.

In such an environment, customers from the other dimension have nothing to order, and if she wants to earn commissions, upgrade her identity, change her status, and leave here, it is probably impossible.

Do I really have to accompany Master Li until I get out of prison before I have a chance? "I have always respected money. I have never stolen, robbed, or anything like that!"
