Chapter 1 Entering the wasteland (full version)(1/3)

Licheng.

On campus, a man with a slight middle parting, overalls, and a white shirt walked into the class.

"Wu Hen, since you have withdrawn from school, you should say goodbye to your classmates. After all, we have been together for two and a half years." Wang Shan, the head teacher, said.

"Goodbye, everyone." Wu Hen, in a white shirt, waved his hand, with a sunny smile on his face.

In the class, all the students looked at him, some were surprised, some were laughing, and some were regretful.

"I'm about to enter college, why did Wu Hen drop out?" Some female classmates began to discuss in a low voice.

"Is he going to study abroad? I heard that his family is very well off. The housekeeper who came to pick him up when he was in junior high school always arrived at the school gate in various luxury cars."

"Brother, your vision is too shallow. All you see is luxury cars... A different housekeeper came to pick him up at the school gate!"

"Here, you are so inhumane? I didn't pay attention at the time. I just thought the housekeeper was very elegant!" the male classmate said in surprise.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the housekeeper has a different style every day, sizzle~" Tears of envy flowed from the corners of the mouths of many male students.

"Don't you read the news? Our richest man in Licheng went bankrupt last year and he also carried a lot of debt. Is there anyone who doesn't know that our Wu Hen is the son of the richest man in Licheng?" At this time, an eyebrow raised in the class

The short-haired man said.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the class fell silent, and everyone looked at Wu Hen.

What, bankrupt?

So the housekeepers are also living on the streets?

Or are you looking for another good owner?

Wu Hen saw that the scene was a bit embarrassing, but he smiled nonchalantly: "I have always wanted to interact with you as an ordinary person, but I didn't expect that before I could show my cards, my mine would be gone. Even if I was admitted to university,

I don’t have money to pay for tuition, so I’ll join the society as soon as possible. I wish you all a bright future!”

After leaving these words, Wu Hen also waved his hand, took his things, and left this classroom full of youthful moments.

As soon as Wu Hen left, the discussion in the class became even noisier.



Arriving at the school gate, head teacher Wang Shan took one look at the gloomy weather and let out a long sigh.

The siren of the weather warning resounded throughout the city. Wang Shan also knew that it was not safe outside and did not dare to chat with the students for too long.

"Is the family really unable to survive?" Wang Shan still cares about his students.

"Well, my sister's continued treatment requires money. My parents have been included in the list of debtors. Every penny they earn now must be paid back to the creditors. Only the money I earn can be used to treat my sister.

Sickness." Wu Hen said.

"Then what are your plans? After all, you have just grown up and you still have a lot to learn." Wang Shan felt very regretful.

Although Wu Hen was born with a golden key in his mouth, he is considered to be relatively outstanding in terms of both his grades and his personal moral character. It would be a pity if he could not continue his studies due to family changes.

"I applied for the qualification of '', and the official said that as long as I can find a Yuanyou mineral deposit and bring it out, I can be rewarded with a hundred thousand." Wu Hen said.

"That brain-connected virtual game?" Wang Shan asked in surprise.

With the development of science and technology, people still cannot find traces of other civilizations in the vast galaxy.

With no choice but to switch from interstellar navigation to virtual exploration.

As a result, a very large and vast virtual world was created, called - Huangchen.

However, everything in Huangchen is extremely incredible. It seems to be gradually developing in a direction that is beyond people's control, and even breaks away from people's cognition...

"I feel that is the future. To be honest, I can't get used to living in poverty. If I want to turn around, this is a rare opportunity." Wu Hen said seriously.

It was also because he applied for this extremely precious qualification that Wu Hen made the decision to drop out of school.

"If that's the case, then I'm a little more relieved. There is a future for exploring virtual worlds. After all, in troubled times, it's easy to die when you go out. Technological powers, cutting-edge companies, and scientific research giants have all spent a lot of money exploring this area. and development, and every year trial players are selected from outstanding students in various universities, and the official compensation and rewards are very exaggerated..." said the class teacher.

"Don't worry, Teacher Wang, I can still study after leaving school." Wu Hen said.

"Okay, then be careful on your way back. If you live in the old city, be careful about thunderstorms. This thunderstorm has been going on for many years. Thousands of people were killed in Licheng alone..." Wang Shan said.

"Teacher Wang himself should pay more attention. If he has the ability, he should buy a house on a silver platter in Xincheng." Wu Hen said.

"Well, my stomach bug cost me all my hard-earned down payment. Natural disasters are happening one after another these days. Even if you stay in an old house, something might happen. I have a nephew playing games on the balcony because the signal is not good. As a result, the body lost temperature rapidly after being slapped, and the person died; and Teacher Xiaoguan in my office had a wedding on the lawn in the early years. As soon as the couple took their vows, a thunderstorm struck them, and they died together... It's true. "Only silver-plated buildings in Xincheng are safe. I don't know where my two children will be in the future. Sometimes I think about dying and leaving more for my wife and children..." Wang Shan couldn't help but talk to Wu Hen chatted about home affairs.

"Old Wang, do you think you can feel at ease if you leave your wife and children to be taken care of by another man?" Wu Hen said.

"You are really good at comforting people, thank you." Wang Shan said angrily.

"Hey, let's go, Lao Deng."

"You boy!" Wang Shan looked at Wu Hen's back and waved his hand helplessly.

After Wu Hen left, Wang Shan walked towards the classroom.

As soon as he arrived at the stairs, Wang Shan bumped into a girl. She was standing at the teaching building and looking in the direction of the school gate.

"Yang Qin, since you want to give it away, why don't you be brave?" Wang Shan, as the head teacher, has always been very easy-going and not too conservative in his thinking.

"I...I..." Yang Qin hesitated, but couldn't help but stare at the classroom window.

At the window, several men and women were watching, as if waiting to see Yang Qin's joke.

"I'm no longer a young master, why are you so pretentious? Maybe one day the takeout you order will be delivered by him personally. How romantic!" The man with a slender eyebrow and short hair mocked at the window.

"Say less!" Wang Shan scolded, but then turned his gaze to Yang Qin, "Just do what you think in your heart, don't care what other people say."

When Yang Qin heard this, she felt even more uncomfortable. She raised her face slightly and pretended to be proud: "I'm just going to the studio. Wu Hen and I only have an ordinary classmate relationship!"

Ordinary classmate relationship?

Seeing Yang Qin's attitude, Wang Shan couldn't help but shook his head.

At the beginning of the school year, Yang Qin shamelessly came to her office, giving her gifts and saying nice things, just to ask her to move her seat to Wu Hen's and make her his deskmate.

As a result, I found out that her family was in a state of poverty, and even a normal farewell was taken into consideration by other people's comments.

It can only be said that little girls are short-sighted.

Based on Wang Shan's understanding of Wu Hen, even without the support of his family, he still can't hide his shine. He will definitely make a name for himself in the future. I hope Yang Qin won't regret it when the time comes.



The school is at the junction of the new city and the old city.

In the past, Wu Hen lived in a luxurious silver plate manor, but now he had to pass through an old area, climb a mountain with broken buildings, and hike through an empty abandoned factory area before he could reach his new home.

The new house has only four walls and only one room, so they have to squeeze in their family of four.

My parents started their business from scratch, starting from running a stall.

After wandering around for most of my life, I have returned to the most difficult years. Compared with the past when I was completely poor, I have a mountain of debt.

Usually, my parents don't come back until around 11 o'clock at night.

But today is Father's Day, and the family has agreed to have dinner together, so Wu Hen doesn't have the intention to stay in school and say goodbye to his classmates one by one.

Pushing open the door and entering, the aroma was already wafting through the room.

A pot of bamboo shoots has been stewed, and Wu Yingting, the leader, is sorting out the goods that have been piled up for half a room. He is probably going to leave the stall again after finishing the meal in a hurry.

"Dad, there might be a thunderstorm today, so I won't go out of the stall. I owe so much money, so I won't miss out on your wages for the night." Wu Hen walked in and said.

After all, Wu Hen still took the initiative to help Wu Yingting organize the merchandise.

"Your fifth uncle is urging me hard, saying that he wants to send his children to college," Wu Yingting said.

In fact, after his bankruptcy, major creditors and banks were concerned about Wu Yingting's health and advised him to eat well and not have any psychological burden.

On the contrary, the faces of those relatives and friends who had made fortune with my father were the most hateful.

It's obviously an investment, there are profits and losses, but when you lose, you ask for money.

"You are a powerful figure in Licheng after all, so why can't you start a live broadcast to sell goods to pay off your debt? How long will it take for you to earn all this hard-earned money before you can repay it?" Wu Hen asked.

"I don't want to do those things, so I'd better start over from the field I'm familiar with. Times are actually changing very fast, and people's needs are also changing. I started from the bottom to explore, and the hard work will only last a few years. I will make a comeback, and

I still miss the old days of selling small commodities at a stall, which was very fulfilling and simple." Wu Yingting said with a smile.

"Will others say you are pretending to be pitiful?" Wu Hen asked.

"Definitely, but what do I care about?" Wu Yingting's mentality was quite good. After all, he had failed in business more than once or twice. He glanced at his son and couldn't help but ask, "How is the school?

Are you being looked down upon?"

"Fortunately, after all, I have not revealed my identity as a young master easily in the past. Of course, there are also children of your business partners in the class. They are more gloating about others' misfortunes, so it's time to stop interacting with them." Wu Hen also said nonchalantly.

"If you don't have contact, don't contact me. By the way, something was sent to you just now. Did you shop online again? It looks quite high-end. If you have some private money, save some money." Wu Yingting said.

"Has the stuff arrived so quickly?" Wu Hen looked surprised and found that there was actually a carbon fiber box in the house.

Fortunately, Wu Yingting didn't open it. If he found out that there was a virtual helmet inside, he would definitely object!

In Wu Yingting's view, virtual technology is not yet mature, and people who become test players have strong sequelae. He strongly opposes Wu Hen becoming a guinea pig for technology!

"Husband, Yu Yu and I bought your favorite braised pork. Hey... Xiaohen is back too. It's so early today. It's good that the whole family hasn't sat down to eat together for a long time." A woman held a hand with a child.

The girl walked in.
