Absolute Great Teacher

Chapter 1143: Charge! Charge! Charge!

Translator: Lordbluefire

This Black-White Game was too unfriendly to people from the Nine Provinces.

The prehistoric times and ancient times were still manageable. At the very least, it was within one’s awareness. As long as one had read a lot, they’d be able to understand some stuff.

However, things were different in the modern world. Even normal light bulbs and cars were things that Song Huigen couldn’t understand.

Even if he was the top genius of the Black-White Academy, a new uprising star, he’d still be at a loss.

There was no helping it. This was the knowledge limitations that this era had brought.

It wasn’t that Song Huigen hadn’t worked hard before. But for someone who only knew traditional Chinese characters, he didn’t even know where he should go to learn. He had gone through a lot of effort to scrimp and save up money and had been planning to sign up for classes at a night school, but he had ended up getting scammed.

The repetitive blows finally caused Song Huigen to collapse. He degenerated into one who didn’t have a roof over his head and took on temporary jobs for a living. He’d pick up trash, sell them for money, and then go online.

The most extravagant life he led was the lunch box he bought in the afternoon. He could order a meat dish.

Of course, in order to numb himself, Song Huigen viewed going online as self-studying. Three years passed by in the blink of an eye.

On the contrary, Sun Mo was very used to how things worked.

He had the experience of over 20 years in this era.

There was a saying that even a pig would be able to fly if they were to stand on top of a draft. Sun Mo knew what he could do to make money, thus he was able to keep on making the right moves.

As it was in the game, Sun Mo didn’t feel any moral pressure. He started to dart around everywhere, going through all old and small districts as well as parks. He used extremely high efficiency ways to persuade those old people to raise money.

Even in the year 2020, when everyone had a phone and the spread of information was very fast, there’d still be many elderly who would fall for such tricks, let alone in the year 2000.

With just this one move, Sun Mo managed to get one million bucks before the first month had ended.

Investment? Getting back their capital? And then returning the money?

That wouldn’t happen!

Sun Mo continued to raise funds and then used the money from the new members to return the interests of those who had invested earlier on. Very soon, a virtuous cycle was formed.

To put it more accurately, when a snowball started rolling, it’d just get bigger and bigger.

The hardest part of accumulating capital was to get the first bucket of gold, followed by accurate investment.

With the capital, Sun Mo had thought of getting into properties, but he eventually gave up on the idea. It was because he felt that the condition to clear the game wasn’t for him to become an estate dealer.

Sun Mo split this money into three parts. He invested one part of it in games, one part in health supplements, and then one part in the Internet domain, which included setting up websites, going into e-commerce, as well as making smartphones.

One year later, Sun Mo became the most brilliant young celebrity entrepreneur in Linjiang.

“Sun Mo, I think that it’d be better if we stop our business dealing with the Internet.”

An Xinhui proposed, “They require too much money.”

In the spacious office, An Xinhui was wearing a set of smart office wear and was reporting work matters to Sun Mo.

She was wearing a pair of glasses, giving her a knowledgeable image.

“You don’t understand!”

Sun Mo didn’t want to explain.

He didn’t know how to make games, and there were currently no talents in this area across the country. Therefore, he chose to purchase licensing rights. With the experience he had prior to arriving in the Nine Provinces, the games that Sun Mo chose were all big hits.

Youngsters were infatuated with the games and contributed a tremendous amount of cash flow for Sun Mo. A piece of equipment in the game could be sold for ten thousand bucks. There were all sorts of gachas that brought them an endless amount of money.

The health supplement business wasn’t bad either. They were very popular with the elderly.

During festive periods, one would be considered unfilial if they didn’t prepare health supplements as gifts. Their relatives and seniors would talk about them behind their backs.

The business of the Internet was the only one that expended a lot of money to the extent that Sun Mo’s heart was aching. However, as someone who knew the trends, he wouldn’t give up on that.

“Let’s not talk about that anymore. Continue to carry out the plan!”

Sun Mo took a sip of coffee. “Oh right, how is Song Huigen doing? Is he still spending his time at the cyber cafe?”

“I heard that he’s been trying to self-study programming recently.”

An Xinhui was perplexed. “Why did you suggest he go into this?”

“It’s because this line has prospects!”

Sun Mo’s lips twitched.

By the way, with regards to ‘raising funds’, Sun Mo had decisively washed his hands off and let others do it after he had gathered his first bucket of wealth.

Otherwise, before he could clear the game, he’d have to spend the latter half of his life behind bars.

…

“Teacher, we’re here to visit you!”

During the weekends, Li Ziqi and Lu Zhiruo came running over again. They’d serve tea and do some miscellaneous tasks, which could be regarded as an internship experience for them.

The little sunny egg had wanted to be Sun Mo’s assistant, but Sun Mo didn’t need one. He even insisted that she and the papaya girl should stay in school and receive modern day education.

Even if they couldn’t learn anything, it’d be good to experience the process too.

“Boss, there’s an interview with the provincial broadcasting station in the afternoon!”

Sun Mo’s female assistant reminded him.

“Cancel it! I’m going to spend time with my students!”

Sun Mo put on his coat. “Where do you guys want to go play?”

“Boss!”

The female assistant felt troubled by this. (You’re someone who earns several hundred thousand dollars each minute. Can’t you have more responsibility? You dare to cancel a show with the provincial broadcasting station?)

“The reason I earn money is to enjoy it, not to be enslaved by it!”

After saying that, Sun Mo felt exhilarated.

He suddenly didn’t feel like clearing the stage anymore. He felt that it’d be quite good to spend his life in the game. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have the confidence to say something like this in real life.

With money, Sun Mo had a lot of good experiences in many areas.

He could buy expensive clothes and luxury cars. Even if he went to the amusement park, he could purchase VIP tickets and could access the rides without having to queue.

On Monday, Sun Mo accepted an interview with a popular show by the provincial broadcasting station. This was a show that was going to be broadcasted across the country. Therefore, Sun Mo’s reputation started to rise across the country.

…

Pa!

Gu Xiuxun threw the lunch box she was eating onto the floor. She was lying on the small bed in her rental apartment, feeling very angry.

“I’ve had enough of such a life!”

Gu Xiuxun couldn’t understand how a great teacher like her had become a factory worker. The factory had two shifts, and she had to change shifts regularly, working 12 hours a day.

Every time she got off work, she’d be dog-tired. Even if she wanted to learn something, she couldn’t do it.

Gu Xiuxun wanted to quit her job but eventually decided to bear with it. After all, the things that she knew seemed to be pretty useless in this era.

Sigh!

(I wonder how Sun Mo is doing.)

“Xiuxun, that second-generation rich guy who is wooing you is rich and quite good-looking too. Why aren’t you agreeing to be his girlfriend?”

Her roommates whom she shared the apartment with were all curious.

She continued to eat her meal and picked up the remote control, switching between channels, wanting to see if there was any business opportunity for her to strike it rich.

After all, as a factory worker, she’d have to work even harder if she didn’t wish to resign to fate.

“Tsk, he’s quite good-looking? There’s a problem with your taste!”

Gu Xiuxun’s lips twitched.

He was a far cry from Sun Mo.

“I know that you’re proud, but it’s a rare thing for a second-generation rich guy to woo us.”

Her roommate persuaded her. “This young entrepreneur on television is rich and handsome, so his choice of girlfriend would definitely be someone with a matching background. We’d at most be a mistress.”

“Today, one of Linjiang’s top ten outstanding young entrepreneurs, Sun Mo, has accepted our interview to share his entrepreneurship experience…”

Hearing the voice from the television, Gu Xiuxun’s brows raised and she looked over. She was then stunned.

“Hey, hey, don’t be drooling over the handsome guy!”

Her roommate teased. But this Sun Mo was really handsome. He could even be an actor in idol dramas.

“That damned Sun Mo. I’m here eating horrible food and slogging day and night, yet you’ve become a big boss!”

Gu Xiuxun shot up and dashed into her bedroom. She went through her things and started packing up.

“What are you doing?”

Her roommate was surprised.

“Packing up and go find my good friend for help!”

Gu Xiuxun saw that the female assistant standing behind Sun Mo was An Xinhui.

“Good friend? Who?”

Her roommates were stunned. They then recalled Gu Xiuxun’s reaction when she saw the television program. “It can’t be that Sun Mo, right? I don’t think it is. He’s a multimillionaire, no, I heard that the Kidney Platinum[1] that’s very popular now is made by his company. He should be a billionaire.”

Gu Xiuxun’s roommates didn’t feel that such an important character would be friends with a factory worker.

“Is he very rich?” asked Gu Xiuxun. Hearing her roommates’ words, she stopped packing her stuff.

“Of course. At the very least, the money he spends on a meal will be enough to match our yearly salary.”

Her roommates said with envy. They heard that those big bosses would have fish, lobsters, and sea cucumber every day and would rinse their mouths with shark fins.

Pa!

Gu Xiuxun threw the clothes in her hands onto her suitcase. She then put on her coat, picked up her cheap bag, and headed out.

“Huh? Your luggage…”

Her roommates were puzzled.

“I don’t want them anymore! After I meet Sun Mo, I’ll get him to buy new ones for me!”

Gu Xiuxun dashed out.

“Aren’t you afraid that he will pretend to not know you?”

Her roommates were worried.

“He won’t! He’s a good guy!”

Gu Xiuxun was very certain about this. “And did you see that assistant standing behind him earlier? That’s my godsister!”

“Then you should at least work until the end of this month and leave after getting your salary, right?”

Her roommates persuaded.

“I’m not going to work anymore! I’ve confessed. I’m the good friend of a billionaire!”

Gu Xiuxun headed straight for the train station, in search of her kin.

…

More and more people saw Sun Mo on television.

Jin Mujie, Mei Ziyu, Murong Mingyue…

Even Lu Feng’s teacher.

In the hospital ward.

Liu Yuzhi was stunned when she saw Sun Mo appearing on television.

“Isn’t this guy too amazing?”

Liu Yuzhi was unconvinced by this outcome. (Why is it so difficult for my teacher and I to start a business? When my teacher went to collect debt yesterday, he was even beaten up.)

“Comparisons are really odious!”

Zhang Wentao felt like dying.

“Teacher, why don’t we go seek help from him?”

Liu Yuzhi proposed.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to see hope of clearing the stage even if she were to die.

In an office, a mysterious man was eating simple food and watching Sun Mo’s interview.

“Interesting!”

The mysterious man’s eyes were filled with amusement.

Having been in this world for a year, he knew how hard it was to earn money. It was very amazing to earn a salary of over $10,000 a month, and only a few people could be like Sun Mo, starting up from nothing.

“What kind of secret do you have on you?”

Of course, this mysterious man was the Dawn Sovereign. He was earning a salary of $100,000 a month, but it was still a far cry when compared to Sun Mo.

…

Becoming famous had its benefits. The people from the Nine Provinces started to look for Sun Mo.

Of course, he’d have to treat those on the same side as him well. Sun Mo wasn’t selfish even if it was to the teachers and students from the Black-White Academy. He’d bring them good alcohol and food.

Song Huigen pleaded for Sun Mo not to tell others about him.

Sun Mo agreed. With the help of these people, Sun Mo’s business suddenly improved leaps and bounds as technology advancements took the world by storm.

E-commerce, Weibo, Facebook, video networks, and many others—Sun Mo’s investments were diversified. Moreover, other than these, he was still investing in the high-tech industry, including artificial intelligence, chip processors, aerospace…

Five years passed by. Sun Mo’s company became a massive presence in this world.

This legendary experience was similar to that of Boss Ma[1].

During dinner.

“My annual leave will start tomorrow. I’m thinking of going to the seaside for a holiday. What about you guys?”

Gu Xiuxun was trying to rope her companions in.

“Can you spend your time on work?”

An Xinhui sighed. It had been so many years, but they still didn’t have any clue on how they could clear the game and she was feeling very anxious. She wondered how the Central Province Academy was doing now.

“It’s useless even if I were to panic! We’ll need to depend on Sun Mo for this!”

Gu Xiuxun quite liked this world. There was barbecue and hotpot here, all sorts of AAA games. Life here seemed a lot more interesting than the Nine Provinces.

The only regret was that the scenery and tourist spots were too weak. Even the places Internet celebrities went weren’t worth mentioning compared to some dangerous places in the Darkness Continent.

“I feel that our direction isn’t wrong. It could be that the amount of change isn’t enough and can’t bring about qualitative changes.”

Sun Mo analyzed.

A year later, when Sun Mo’s company had successfully launched their first rocket probe with artificial intelligence and started space exploration, Sun Mo and the others finally heard the notification they had been waiting to hear for a very long time.

“Congratulations, you’ve completed the game. You’ll enter the next stage in ten seconds!”

It was a simple and direct announcement. Sun Mo didn’t even have the time to have a closer interaction with his newly recruited female assistant before he was teleported.

…

When Sun Mo woke up in the darkness and saw the environment, he was stunned.

“What the f*ck is this?” Sun Mo cursed.

This should be a laboratory.

The white metallic walls reflected cold light. Other than all sorts of wiring and pipes, there were a lot of large-sized glass cylinders.

They were about three meters in height, with a diameter of one meter. They were filled with unknown nutritional liquid. The most terrifying thing was that there were many heads soaked within each of them. The heads were connected to a section of the vertebra.

There were traces of metal on the vertebra.

Sun Mo shuddered because he was one of the many heads.

“F*ck your mom!”

Sun Mo really wanted to exit the game. This was even more terrifying than a horror film.

Very soon, Sun Mo knew that this wasn’t a laboratory but a production workshop. These heads were all new robots.

They were the products of biomechanics.

Sun Mo waited for seven days before he received a brand new android body and then was pushed out of the factory. He then met his new master with his other ‘comrades’.

It was a girl who was about 16 years old, looking youthful and beautiful.

“We’ve used the latest technology on them…”

The CEO who was in charge of receiving this girl was boasting about these robots to the sky.

There was no helping it. It was because this girl was their boss’s most doted daughter.

“Who am I?” the girl asked.

“Princess!” the robots replied.

Based on the system’s logic, Sun Mo should give the same reply. However, he didn’t wish to curry up to her like this.

The girl took a look at her wristwatch before looking at Sun Mo. “Very good. Send that to be scrapped off! As for the others, send them to the West World!”

“…”

Sun Mo was stunned. (Who did I offend? Moreover, how did you notice that I hadn’t spoken? Things can’t be over for me right from the beginning, right?)
