Avoid detours, start by running a nursing home.

"bite……"

"Trigger a side quest"

Mission objective: Gain Jiangcheng's approval.

"Task requirement: Target's favorability level >= 60."

"Mission Rewards: 1 Random Beginner Skill Pack; 1 Latest Model Laptop; 5000 Cash Reward"

As Zhang Yang stepped into the room, lines of text appeared before his eyes once again.

Jiangcheng?

This must be the former world champion who's obsessed with computer games right in front of me, right?

Zhang Yang looked at the mission description and felt a headache coming on.

On one side, Liu Jing and her group were watching him intently, waiting for him to solve the problem.

But the old man still looked unconvinced.

How am I supposed to solve this?

Are we going to give this old man Jiang electrotherapy?

The system had previously warned that if any illegal means were used against the elderly in these nursing homes, the consequences would be retaliated against.

Wouldn't that mean I'd end up having to do electrotherapy with him?

There were so many people watching behind him, all waiting to see their own misfortune unfold.

If we can't resolve this issue of Mr. Jiang's obsession with video games today, then you can imagine what will happen in the future.

I doubt I'll be able to hold onto this dean position that the system forced me into.

And this task system, what's with it causing trouble at this time!

However, looking at the rewards for the mission, Zhang Yang was tempted again.

Let's not even talk about the skills; with his luck, he probably won't get anything good from the random gift pack.

The computers aren't anything special to look at, and I doubt their performance is that great these days.

The key thing is the cash!

5000 yuan, a full 5000 yuan! He used to work himself to the bone for a month and couldn't earn that much!

Moreover, he was tricked into coming here by the system while he was lying on his dormitory bed.

I didn't even bring my phone!

Before time travel, everyone used mobile phones to scan QR codes; who used cash?

With his pockets empty, he was still worrying about where he would eat his next meal.

Everything else is fine, but I absolutely have to get this money today!

Moreover, this nursing home must have at least twenty or thirty people in total, right?

If everyone is given a task, even if each person only receives a reward of 5000, the total would still amount to over 100,000!

The house has nothing to do with him now; he can neither sell it nor mortgage it. No matter how valuable it is, he can only watch it go.

But this cash is real money that you can earn right away.

"Hehe, what are you saying, Mr. Jiang?"

The moment he thought of money, Zhang Yang's face lit up with a smile: "Aren't you a world champion, sir?"

"How about this? I'll have the department buy a few pool tables later, and we can set up a special activity center."

"Would you like to demonstrate your skills to us then?"

"People used to call you a rocket launcher, didn't they? We can all learn from you."

He was immediately slapped away by the flattery, which was given away as if it were free.

Anyway, flattery will always work, no matter how many times you try. Surely the old man will be satisfied with that?

He had good ideas, but unfortunately, reality is always harsh.

The old man rolled his eyes, his face full of disdain: "I've been playing pool my whole life, I'm sick of it."

"You're already living in a nursing home, and you little brat still want me to play pool?"

"What, you want me to die even faster, don't you?"

"Ahem!" Liu Jing coughed as well. "Old Jiang has quite high blood pressure, so he definitely can't do strenuous exercise."

Li Xiaoyun, standing beside him, looked at Zhang Yang with disdain.

I thought you had some great idea, but this is all?

Zhang Yang was so angry he was grinding his teeth. This old man was so arrogant!

They meant well and didn't want to fight, so why couldn't they just talk things out?

Okay, okay, is this how you want to play?

Then don't blame me for being impolite!

Thinking this, he walked to the computer, glanced at the screen, and chuckled, "Heh, the Dragon Palace?"

"Old Jiang, you're quite good at choosing your sect, aren't you?"

"Tsk tsk, this character's level is a bit low... 69... What, haven't you finished the quest yet?"

"And your baby... oh, so it's a bull's head, tsk tsk..."

He casually dragged the mouse twice, looked at the characters and pets in the game, stood there shaking his head, and clicked his tongue with a dismissive look.

Why are you touching my mouse for no reason?!

Old Jiang's face darkened immediately upon seeing his behavior. He snatched the mouse from his hand and slammed it heavily on the table.

"And what's wrong with the bull-headed baby?! This baby is a top-tier pet that I spent several days catching, you know!"

"What are you talking about if you don't understand anything!"

Old Jiang's face turned red. What did he mean by a 1.09 aptitude, a ghost-exorcising ability, a high-level critical strike, and that it was a top-tier pet when catching ghosts?

Or he wouldn't sell even if someone offered him tens of millions.

After all that, everyone in the room except Zhang Yang was completely confused.

Tens of millions?

What kind of thing is worth tens of millions?

"Mr. Jiang, please calm down and don't take it to heart!"

Seeing the old man's face turn red with anger, Liu Jing quickly stepped forward, patting his back and comforting him repeatedly.

As she spoke, she looked up and gave Zhang Yang a reproachful look.

Didn't I ask you to persuade Mr. Jiang and his son to play games?

And what are you doing, starting to provoke him?!

Thinking of this, she frantically tried to signal to Zhang Yang with her eyes: "Xiao Zhang, hurry up and apologize to Old Jiang..."

She now regrets having Zhang Yang intervene, so she wants to cover it up as soon as possible.

To avoid Zhang Yang, the new dean, making a fool of himself in front of everyone so soon after taking office, which would make it difficult to carry out his work afterwards.

She did offer him a way out, but Zhang Yang remained completely unmoved.

"Even if this bull's head is good, can it be better than an auspicious beast?!"

"Besides, you're already level 69, you should at least get a dragon or a phoenix, right?"

Zhang Yang tilted his head, completely ignoring the look in Director Liu Jing's eyes.

He's now determined to thoroughly deflate Old Jiang's arrogance.

I am your dean!

You should at least give me some respect, right?

Although the nursing home is nice, does that mean I should grovel and fawn over this old man?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

If we don't establish the rules today, what if everyone in the nursing home wants to step on him whenever they see him?

Do we have to endure this for ten years?

If that's the case, he'd rather not have the house.

It's fine to show concern for your own grandson, but there's absolutely no need to pretend to be one!

As for this dreamlike journey to the East game right now...

In his past life, he tried every possible way to earn tuition and living expenses.

For a period of time, he received a computer donated by a kind person, so he did jobs such as gold farming and power leveling.

Fantasy Journey to the East was also an important source of income for him at the time.

After all, it is probably the longest-running and most economically stable online game in China.

So he is quite familiar with this game.

Of course, he was playing in a much later version of the game, when the graphics, factions, gameplay, and features were already far more advanced than the earlier versions.

Fortunately, Old Jiang's game account wasn't at a high level, so the basic content in the early stages was still quite similar.

So he wasn't worried about any problems arising from the fault he casually picked out.

Today, he wants to use this game as a breakthrough, to defeat magic with magic!

What's more, he still has the cheat code on him!

Before I mentioned the Fantasy Journey to the East, the favorability rating above people's heads had already dropped below 30.

The moment the game was mentioned, the old man was so angry he was jumping up and down, but the number above his head immediately stopped dropping!

Zhang Yang looked up at Old Jiang and a smile slowly crept onto his face.

How can I get this old man to quit online games?

Why quit!
