Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

After settling the matter, Lu Xiaobu felt light and carefree.

So, it’s time to splurge!

”Let’s go, Sister Lan, time to splurge.”

Lu Xiaobu rubbed his hands together excitedly.

”Alright, Young Master.”

Liang Lan responded, ”Where to?!”

”Let me think.” Lu Xiaobu stroked his chin, ”Let’s buy computers. Isn’t there a competition coming up? We should pick a few good ones.”

”Alright, Young Master, there happens to be a computer exhibition in Magic City, I’ll arrange that.”

Liang Lan nodded and pulled out her phone to start organizing.

...

Soon, Liang Lan had everything arranged, and Lu Xiaobu flew to Magic City in his private jet.

The weather in Magic City was that humid kind, cold and damp in winter, hot and humid in summer.

So Lu Xiaobu, who was used to living in the north, didn’t adapt so well after getting off the plane.

He made his way to the computer exhibition.

No sooner had he entered than he was recognized.

It couldn’t be helped, Lu Xiaobu brought quite an entourage this time. Given the spectacle, anyone could recognize them.

”Young Master Bu, it’s Young Master Bu!”

”Hello, Young Master Bu!”

”Welcome, Young Master Bu!”

”Young Master Bu, may you reign for thousands of generations, dominating the Jianghu!”

Ah, the last one is clearly a fan of Lu Xiaobu!

And the security at the computer exhibition promptly formed a protective circle around Lu Xiaobu and his group to prevent any disturbance.

Lu Xiaobu was happy, ”Hello everyone!”

Ah, no cash rewards this time, too many people.

It’s not about the money, but giving out cash here could easily cause chaos!

”Hello, Young Master Bu, I am the person in charge here—Zhou Kun, just call me Little Zhou. If you have any requests, just let me know.”

The person in charge of the computer exhibition—Zhou Kun—ran over, nodding and bowing.

His respect was not just because of Lu Xiaobu’s fame, but also because of seeing the God of Wealth.

Oh, don’t get me wrong, not because of money giving, but because as the owner of LOL, with the booming business of LOL, their computer industry is also thriving.

You tell me, shouldn’t he show some extra respect to Lu Xiaobu?

”Alright, show me some computers.”

Lu Xiaobu gestured.

”Alright, right this way, Young Master Bu.”

Zhou Kun made an inviting gesture, ”Do you have any specific requirements, Young Master Bu?!”

”Requirements? The most expensive, the best, just these two points.”

Lu Xiaobu nodded.

Hearing this, Zhou Kun’s lips twitched, well, that question was needless.

But he could understand Lu Xiaobu’s viewpoint.

So, he thought for a moment and said, ”Young Master Bu, we actually have one computer that meets your requirements. It’s the treasure of our exhibition!”

”Sure, take me to see it.”

Lu Xiaobu was interested.

As they progressed, people around them kept cheering whenever they saw Lu Xiaobu.

”Young Master Bu, I love you!”

”Young Master Bu, I want to have your monkeys!”

”Young Master Bu, are you free tonight?!”

”...”

Ah, those above are envious.

Those below are jealous.

”Psht, what’s so great about him, he just has some money.”

”Squanderer!”

”Showing off, even buying a computer needs so many people, with bodyguards and security and all.”

”Rich enough to burn money.”

”Exactly, money isn’t everything!”

”...”

You probably noticed the underlying jealousy and envy beneath their sour tones.

It’s just human nature, this so-called hatred for the rich is mostly just jealousy and envy.

When Lu Xiaobu heard this, he immediately turned around and chuckled at those guys who criticize what they can’t have.

Then he seriously said, ”99% of the things in this world can be solved with money.”

Lu Xiaobu curved his lips: ”And the only thing that can’t be solved is not having enough money!”

”Pfft!”

Instantly, countless envious and jealous hearts were fiercely stabbed.

Lu Xiaobu, you’re so mean!

They forgot that Lu Xiaobu is a master of toxic chicken soup!

But they didn’t want to admit defeat either, so they continued to mutter, ”Can money buy happiness?!”

”Good question.” Lu Xiaobu nodded seriously: ”Of course, money can’t buy happiness.”

Then, he shifted the topic and raised his eyebrow: ”But, as long as you have money, others will find ways to make you happy.”

”Pfft!”

Half the crowd clutched their chests.

Damn it!

That’s damn harsh!

”Rich people are heartless!” someone shouted again:

”Sociologists have found that ugly and poor men are no more reliable than rich, handsome men,” Lu Xiaobu spread his hands and continued.

”Pfft!”

Another stab!

The crowd turned green.

Lu Xiaobu, are you going to stop being mean?

Who are you calling ugly and poor!

Everyone at the scene felt their hearts couldn’t take it anymore.

”Okay, enough joking, one last thing I’ll say to you, I know you resent the wealthy, which is normal, everyone feels a bit like that, but don’t let it blind you into thinking that all rich people are arrogant and heartless. Actually, you’ll gradually realize that many wealthy people are very knowledgeable, have rich experiences, take things seriously, are generous, rational, and easier to get along with than poor people.”

Lu Xiaobu spoke very seriously.

Listening to Lu Xiaobu’s last sentence, everyone relaxed a bit.

They knew in their hearts that what Lu Xiaobu said was true, they just didn’t want to admit it.

After all, reality has already been harsh to them, finding some psychological comfort is the only thing they can do.

This in psychology is called cognitive bias.

People subconsciously choose the ideas that make them feel more comfortable between harsh reality and idealistic thoughts!

Never mind, let’s not get too scholarly, simply put, it’s tough and it’s not easy!

Not only do they not break others down, but they also don’t want to break themselves down!

And while everyone was pondering this.

”Just like me, see, handsome, wealthy, and kind, rare in this world.”

Lu Xiaobu shamelessly boasted.

”Pfft!”

Everyone laughed.

Here we thought Lu Xiaobu was teaching a lesson, turns out he was just praising himself!

Have you no shame?!

But after this episode, the irritation and jealousy in everyone’s heart had subsided a lot, and their gazes had also softened.

Although Lu Xiaobu is shamelessly boastful, he’s really easy to get along with, without any airs.

While they were still chatting, Zhou Kun also brought Lu Xiaobu in front of their store’s prized possession.

Zhou Kun, listening to Lu Xiaobu joking with these people, also mused in his heart.

Sure enough, just as Young Master Bu himself said, he’s really easy to get along with and makes people feel comfortable!

”Young Master Bu, this is the one, all top-level specs, three hundred and twenty thousand, if you use it yourself, you’ll definitely enjoy it.”

Zhou Kun introduced: ”Shall I show you the specs?”

”No need, this one is fine, get me thirty units!” Lu Xiaobu waved his hand and said.
