In an age of catastrophe, monsters run rampant. Lu Ye awakens the "Myriad Worlds Gig Worker Hundred-Billion Subsidy System." Any money earned through legitimate work can be spent in the System's store at absurdly low prices!
[1 year of martial arts cultivation]: Pinduoduo special offer, just 1.5 yuan!
[Undying Ancient Desolate Sacred Body]: Limited-time flash sale, just 50 yuan!
To scrape together the few yuan he needs to buy cultivation, Lu Ye becomes a low-level workaholic who'll risk his life for cash and starts taking ridiculous delivery and errand jobs.
A cold beauty from school offers a hundred thousand yuan to anyone who'll gather herbs in an A-rank rift. No one dares accept.
Lu Ye floors it and parks his beat-up Wuling Hongguang in front of her. "Get in. No meter. Fifty yuan, pickup and drop-off included."
When a lord-class monster blocks the road, Lu Ye spends two yuan to buy [10 Years of Martial God Cultivation] to protect his fifty-yuan fare, gets out, and slaps the monster into a wall with a couple of mighty smacks.
The beauty is stunned. "If you're this strong, why are you still driving an illegal taxi?"
Lu Ye says, "Obviously, if I don't work, where am I supposed to get the money to get stronger? Are you paying your fare or not?"
