Chapter 143: Mission, System Task

  Su Wen didn't want to control the Feng family, but rather find a loyal ally for himself. He believed that once Feng Wanli tasted the sweetness of Jiubaozhai, he would never leave. For the Feng family, their greatest wish was to rise again and restore their former glory. Jiubaozhai, with its countless treasures, was their paradise. In the future, the Feng family would try to please Jiubaozhai, giving them money without being asked, and they would gradually get used to doing things for Su Wen.

  Su Wen always believed that resources were the greatest killer in this world.

  He has a great heavenly Dao recovery system, with endless resources, he can completely use these resources to build a powerful super resource empire, and the survival of this empire is not just Feng's family, but also Zhang's family, Li's family, etc., as long as others have needs, Jibao Zhai can continue to grow stronger.

  ……

  In the backyard.

  "Villain, let me go quickly!" Feng Tong shouted.

  "I'll naturally let you go, but it's better if you listen to what I have to say first." Su Wen smiled, "You've told me all about the Feng family's situation. Do you think that even if I let you go now, the people of the Feng family won't have any opinions about you? Can you still live in the Feng family like before?"

  "What do you mean?" Fengtong had a very bad premonition.

  "Don't you know that you've already betrayed the Feng family? In ancient times, this would be punishable by three cuts and six holes. Although killings are fewer now, but in the Feng family, you're destined to have no future prospects either. If I were the master of the house, what core matters, core martial arts would not be let known to you again. Simply put, you've already been excluded from the Feng family. Of course, if you really go back, the Feng family wouldn't mind raising a useless person."

  "How can this be? I don't believe it!" Feng Tong was shocked and lost his color, but his mind was still able to understand these things.

  "Believe it or not, this is the fact. Feng Wanli has just left, he agreed to let me handle you, now I give you two choices. One is to go to prison, and the other is to serve me for three years." Su Wen said calmly. "I don't suggest you go to jail, in that case, you will have no chance to return to the Feng family, so the best way in front of you is to serve me for three years."

  "Hum! I won't serve you!" Fengtong also had the pride of a young master from a noble family.

  "I know you're unwilling, but this is your only chance. Now that I and the Feng family are in a cooperative relationship, you work for me for three years, do well, and the people of the Feng family will definitely be impressed. The day they come begging to you, they'll naturally ask you to return to the family."

  Feng Tong seemed to be thinking: "Are you telling the truth?"

  "It's true, I won't gain anything by lying to you."

  "What do you want me to do?"

  "Beggar!"

  "How could you be so cruel?"

  "Of course. Not just any ordinary beggar, I have a beggar organization under me, but they're developing too slowly. I want you to go and help them out."

  "Beggar organization?"

  "It's a very powerful organization, a large group of people. The beggars in Jiangsu Province will soon be under their control. When they unite to cause trouble, the government has to compromise."

  "That's still begging!"

  "Nature is a beggar, just a group of modernized beggars. They need people like you to join them. Behind them will be the Beggars' Association, the Beggars' Corporation. Hehe, the Beggar Gang is taking shape, and in the future, you might even become the deputy leader."

  "I..."

  "Isn't it exciting? I'm actually very excited too, thinking that I've single-handedly planned an international-scale big event, it's really intoxicating!"

  Fengtong continuously wiped his sweat, he was shocked.

  "What are you hesitating about? A bright future is beckoning to you, and in the future, the Feng family will be nothing. They may even have to rely on you for a living. Think about it, when that day comes, how proud you'll be! Even national leaders might have to meet with you, and when you go abroad to develop business, many dignitaries will accompany you. You're going to be the star of tomorrow!"

  Fengtong's eyes lit up, and he swallowed his saliva repeatedly.

  "So, is it going to be prison or being a beggar who's above everyone else?"

  "I'm going to beg."

  "Great!" Su Wen praised, "Old beggar, come over quickly, I'll introduce you to a new colleague, and he'll follow you from now on."

  The old beggar walked in with a smile: "Su Xiao Ge, you're really a good person, knowing that I've been short-handed recently, and even arranged a helper for me."

  Su Wenqiang suppressed his smile: "You tie up Feng Tong, then take him away! You two will be loving and affectionate in the future, work hard, I'll be watching you, all the beggars in the world will surrender at your feet."

  The old beggar nodded and cut off the rope on Fengtong's body, leading him away.

  Chen Yunhao walked in wiping his sweat.

  "What's wrong?" Su Wen asked with a smile.

  "Boss, you're really good at talking nonsense. That Fengtong is so stupid and actually believed it." Chen Yunhao said.

  "Haha, I chose Fengtong because he's stupid enough. He came to steal without thinking twice, which shows how foolish he is." Suwen said, "The old beggar doesn't have much martial power, sometimes even beggars need to fight and kill people. This Fengtong guy has decent skills, he can be of great help to the old beggar."

  "Why must it be Fengtong? Zhou Fei and others can also do it!"

  "Are you stupid or am I? How can our own people go and become beggars. In the future, if those old beggars succeed, we can just let them do things for us. If they don't succeed, it's still the Feng family that will be unlucky. Of course, at that time, the Feng family might push us out, but never mind, as long as we don't admit it."

  "Boss, you're being too black-hearted!"

  "Is there? Actually, I have always just considered the old beggar as an optional investment, and didn't take it to heart."

  "Boss, have you ever thought of a situation where the old beggar really succeeds, and Fengtong picks the fruit for the Feng family? What would happen then?"

  "Feng Tong's IQ is not enough to pass a month, the old beggar lets him do what he wants, and Feng's family can't believe in Feng Tong anymore. Even if we take a step back, when the old beggar succeeds, Feng's family may already be looking at our faces to act, at that time, even if we give the old beggar's beggar group to Feng's family, what's the use?"

  Chen Yunhao was dumbfounded and speechless.

  When I got back home in the evening, Yuki had already cooked dinner.

  "Fei will be back soon."

  "Come back then, we're clear and innocent, not afraid of what she says."

  "What are you talking about? I'm just thinking about how to arrange things for Feier, she's going to be a senior in college soon. You know the situation with universities, seniors either look for jobs or look for jobs. Someone like her definitely can't go job hunting, but we also can't let her idle around all day, we have to find something for her to do."

  "Or let her stay in the pawnshop."

  "She may not be willing, this girl can't sit still."

  "Never mind, you'd better wait for her to come back and ask her herself. But I do hope she never comes back."

  "Why?"

  "As soon as she came back, our world of two ended."

  "Get out!"

  ……

  Inside the Treasure Pavilion.

  Su Wen and Yi Xue looked at Feng Ling'er in front of them.

  "Has your dad told you already?"

  "Alright, tell me directly, what do you want me to do?"

  "Don't get so angry, I'll ask you a few questions first."

  "Go ahead and ask!"

  "How old are you now?"

  “21！”

  Aren't you in school?

  "Our family has its own education, just a name in school."

  "What can you do?"

  "Business management, swordsmanship, makeup."

  "Alright, go report to Feitian Building, from now on, the security business of Feitian will be handed over to you."

  "Alright."

  Feng Ling'er turned around and left, very decisively.

  Yi Xue was speechless: "The people of Feng's family were really pitied by you this time, alas!"

  Su Wen smiled but did not speak.

  Another month has passed after careful calculation.

  Su Wen took a look at her own tasks, the main line task and branch line task 1 were completed, but branch line task 2 was not completed.

  After twelve o'clock, the task is updated.

  "Master, a new mission has appeared."

  "Speak!"

  Xiao Tian didn't hesitate and quickly reported the task.

  This time, the system released a total of one mainline task and three branch tasks, which is one more than last time. However, this includes Branch Task 2 that was not completed last time.

  Specific task content:

  Main Quest: Ancient Painting Retrieval.

  Quest Requirements: Retrieve 100 Song Dynasty paintings within a month.

  Quest Reward: Bone Dissolving Palm.

  Re-examine the branch mission:

  Branch Task 1: The Nature Lover's Recycler.

  Task Description: Protect the natural environment.

  Note: This task has a system evaluation, no specific task requirements are made.

  Task Reward: Life Rhythm Primary (can feel the growth of plants).

  Branch Task 2: Brave Recycler.

  Task Description: Accumulate hitting people 1000 times.

  Note: Cannot intentionally hit people, cannot do evil deeds.

  Task Reward: Bloodline Strengthening Intermediate.

  Branch Task 3: Collector of Favorites.

  Task Description: Accumulate 100 pieces of recovered equipment.

  Note: The same piece of equipment cannot occupy one-fifth of all equipment.

  Task Reward: Primary Weapon Enhancement (consumes life force).

  Su Wen carefully evaluated the task.

  The main task goes without saying, that Bone Dissolving Palm is absolutely a temptation, but the calligraphy and painting of the Song Dynasty seem not to be easily recovered.

  In the branch task, the current completion progress of Branch Task 2 is 212/1000, and it's unclear whether it can be completed this month. Branch Task 1 is a bit strange, as the system doesn't specify what degree constitutes completing the task, but protecting the natural environment is just a matter of doing things that benefit nature. On the other hand, the reward for Branch Task 3 is not simple: if you can strengthen a single weapon, even an ordinary kitchen knife, it may eventually become a divine instrument.

  Su Wen even thought that if he were to enhance a handgun, would the enhanced handgun be comparable to a rocket launcher? Thinking of this, Su Wen couldn't help but laugh: "When the time comes and I've enhanced a bunch of ultra-cool handguns, it'll definitely be the most awesome thing ever."
