Chapter 4, Official Move-in

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

My uncle and aunt have agreed to your renting here. Now you just need to submit the application form to the community management committee, and then my uncle can sign the contract with you! Peter was very happy

He can completely obtain enough supplies here and then take them to the world of The Wandering Earth to exchange for a better underground city area for himself

He can still stay in this world for nearly a month, and of course, he cannot remain idle.

He earns money easily, so he does not feel pain when spending it

"No need, no need. My uncle said that this two thousand US dollars will count as your payment for three months' rent. They will tidy up the guest room today, and from now on, that will be your room!" Peter said

Furthermore, he cannot bring items that are considered sensitive to the dungeon system, such as anything containing precious metals, as well as sugar

Moreover, as long as he possesses a complete set of military exoskeleton armor, relying on collecting gold from the outside world, he could become a wealthy magnate in the world of Spider-Man

Zhuang Quan stood up from the chair. After three days of rest, his fatigued body had been alleviated. By tomorrow morning, he would likely be able to regain the combat strength he had during the dungeon period, along with the books. This is truly good news

In the future, if he acquires sufficient abilities, technology, or fortune, he may be able to change everything about the Wandering Earth

Zhuang Quan's panel is not a very intelligent system; it only prompts Zhuang Quan whether to traverse, the duration of stay, and the next world to traverse. Apart from that, there is nothing but a blank space.

Having finished these, he finally nodded and tore the paper in his hand.

"What good news?" Zhuang Quan asked with a smile

In such an environment, the number of crises caused by accidents or factors such as insurgents is countless, and he cannot guarantee that he will survive until the time of the Jupiter crisis

This signifies that the Parker family has gained an additional source of income, which will increase his pocket money in the future, and his aunt will no longer have to worry about the pile of bills!

This world is only in the year 2002, while the universe of The Wandering Earth is already in 2060. The technological gap between the two worlds is immense, and Zhuang Quan can even think of what he needs to prosper in this world without any deliberation

This is indeed good news! Zhuang Quan said with a smile, "Do I need to pay the rent for the past few months to m.hetushu.com?"

From cups, basins, toothpaste, and toothbrushes to tissues, sanitary napkins, and then to soap, shower gel, as well as various small household appliances, all of these can be referred to as daily necessities

Zhuang Quan is preparing to bring items such as tissues, soap, sanitary napkins, toothpaste, and toothbrushes. These items are in high demand and difficult to obtain in the underground city, and should allow him to exchange for some valuable goods there

He needs to start considering the matters that lie ahead

What this means is that Zhuang Quan is certainly very clear about it, so he has no intention of buying a house in this world. With Spider-Man's character guarantee, his safety in this house can still be considered secure

"Hey buddy, I have some good news, do you want to hear it?" It seemed that he had no friends, as Peter walked in again, holding a bucket of popcorn.

Because all technology and factories are dedicated to serving the planetary engines and underground cities, the demands related to people's livelihoods have been reduced to a minimum

Thank you very much! Zhuang Quan said, with a private room, there would be even more things he could do

He also tried it, and indeed, the retention time refers to the minimum retention time he must spend here; if this time is not reached, he will not be able to open the next world

If he was still looking for a burden a couple of days ago, he has now transformed into a major financial backer in these past two days

This is the Hangzhou No. 1 underground city, where the gravitational pull of Jupiter caused a rupture in the geological layers, resulting in the complete destruction of the engine and the backflow of magma, with no survivors among the 170,000 people

After all, in the Forest Hills area of Queens, there are no companies or schools, making it very difficult to rent out houses

In the underground, one can only consume cultivated foods: mushrooms, protein powder, synthetic starch, and dried earthworms. Those who are able to survive must also work on the surface.

Indeed, during the era of brake, sugar was also an important industrial raw material, and private acquisition from outside required submission. If one did not wish to spend 48 hours in the security office of the underground city, sugar was also prohibited from being brought in

This is indeed a normal world; even if there are superheroes and supervillains, so what? Compared to the Wandering Earth, it is far too normal and far too safe

According to this pattern, he can even exchange a few bags of rice in the dungeon for a top-tier talent with skills

Although the year he is in is still 2060, with 15 years remaining until Earth approaches the orbit of Jupiter, the Wandering Earth is not a world suitable for human survival

Zhuang Quan let out a sigh of melancholy, pondering whether, if he could obtain sufficient power, such as the ability to halt the expansion of the sun, humanity could continue to survive in the solar system instead of perpetually fleeing for 2,500 years

Zhuang Quan no longer thinks so much; when in poverty, one should focus on self-cultivation, and when prosperous, one should benefit the world. For now, it is best to first improve one's own condition

Things are developing in a positive direction, and this family seems to be doing well

He thought to himself

In this world, tools, food, and daily necessities that can be produced using simple civilian technology are astonishingly inexpensive, yet they can be sold at high prices in the underground cities of the Wandering Earth.

"So, would you like to try the freshly popped popcorn?" Peter offered the bucket of popcorn in his hand.

First of all, he is just one person, and he cannot carry too many things, so those heavy yet low-value items can be discarded, such as the rice that just came to mind

Thus, the items that can be brought are quite limited. Zhuang Quan pondered for a moment and thought of a product that would not be confiscated but could still fetch a good price in the dungeon—daily necessities

First of all, with the possession of the world-crossing panel, Zhuang Quan has gained more possibilities. He is no longer the inconsequential minor character from the Wandering Earth world, but rather a special character who can change the world

Zhuang Quan increasingly felt that there was potential, so he picked up a piece of paper from Peter's desk and began to write down what he needed:

Indeed, just like how Americans hoarded paper towels during the pandemic, as long as humanity exists in this world, there will always be a need for various daily necessities

Temporarily, Zhuang Quan envisioned relying on the capabilities of the panel to become a middleman traversing two realms

As the era of braking comes to an end and the Earth enters a prolonged period of acceleration, the surface temperature will drop to over minus one hundred degrees due to the distance from the Sun, rendering human survival completely impossible. It will be necessary to rely on heavy protective suits and reinforced engineering vehicles.

There is no need for complete destruction, as even if the people of this world were to restore these papers, they would not understand their meaning

The road ahead is long and arduous

Of course! Zhuang Quan nodded and reached out to take it

After all, the underground city where Zhuangquan is located is Hangzhou No. 1
