Book of the Otherworld

Chapter 13 Risks and Opportunities

"It seems that we already have the answer." After reading all the contents of Chapter 1 of the Book of Other Worlds, Xing Tianyu said so.

It is not without reason that he said this. No matter from which point of view, a summoner is a dangerous profession with a high mortality rate and full of unpredictable and terrible consequences. Summoning is an extremely dangerous profession. It's unreliable, it's a deadly and unlimited spell, anyone with a little brain should understand that they shouldn't take this evil path.

"Let's leave the most dangerous and evil spells to those who have the spirit of death."

However, Xiao Zhen didn't seem to see it that way.

"On the contrary, what I saw was an unprecedented opportunity. Think about it, summoner is such a high-risk profession, why do so many people continue to do it? There is no doubt that it is because the summoning technique can bring The benefits are too great, let's not talk about the three wishes for summoning the lamp god, after all, those things are still too far away from us, let's talk about the introduction of the summoning technique later, [not only can you get wealth and resources Great harvest, even able to learn powerful magic and other abilities that do not exist in reality], if this sentence is true, do you know what it means? This means that summoners have the opportunity to obtain superpowers, no matter what Whether it’s magic or fairy art, even if we learn these things casually, they are enough for us to use for a lifetime, even if it’s just the most trashy super power, it’s still a super power, and we don’t have to worry about it for the rest of our lives after learning it.”

Immortal magic, or similar supernatural abilities, even Xing Tianyu has to admit that this is a very huge temptation.

However, he still shook his head and said, "Come on, no matter how great the opportunity is, you have to live to enjoy it. Didn't you pay attention to the risks of summoners mentioned above?"

Xiao Zhen said indifferently: "What are you afraid of? Didn't it say that there are some known summoning techniques that are safe and reliable!"

However, Xing Tianyu snorted, "Don't forget that this book also said, [Even the safest and most reliable summoning spell, sometimes there will be deviations, and unknown creatures can be summoned]."

The current situation has fallen into the same situation as when playing card games before, which card has a higher priority, Luo Bao Money or Xinghuang Banner, but the card game is not so fun to play if it is not good. There is still a chance to modify it, but if this matter is not done well, it will kill people.

So Xing Tianyu didn't back down even a single step.

Seeing that Xing Tianyu refused to give in, Xiao Zhen snorted coldly, "Hmph, is this your choice? To be honest, I am not surprised. It seems that my father is right. Courage is such a thing. It is born, some people can achieve a career, and some people are destined to only work for others, always envy those successful people but don't know why they can't achieve anything."

"What do you mean by that?" Xing Tianyu suddenly asked a little uncomfortable.

Xiao Zhen didn't answer directly, but suddenly glanced at the three of them and said, "You guys have always called me a local tyrant, thinking that I am a rich second generation, living a relaxed life without pressure, and thinking that I live a chic life, but do you know How did I get here as a rich second generation?"

Before he finished speaking, he didn't wait for a few people to answer, so he started talking on his own.

"When I was young, my family was not rich. It could only be said that it was an ordinary life. My parents were ordinary state-owned enterprise workers. Until I was eight years old, the factory where my father worked closed down. Before getting a job, he decided to start his own business. At that time, real estate was just emerging, and he thought it was very interesting. Someone asked him to invest in starting a business together. However, if he wanted to invest at least more than 100 million in capital, he was eligible to start. At that time, more than 100 Ten thousand, for a family like ours, it is definitely an astronomical figure."

"If you were an ordinary person, you would probably be discouraged. If you sell breakfast and set up a food stall or something, you can go on with your life. However, my father did not. My father has always been a very courageous person. He recognized real estate. He could make money, so he decided to do it. In order to raise money, he mortgaged his family's house, sold 100 acres of land in his hometown, and borrowed hundreds of thousands of debts from his seven aunts and eight aunts to make up 100 million. I partnered with others to start an investment. It can be said that the [-] million is everything to our family. If my father lost at that time, then maybe our family will live in embarrassment and hardship for the rest of our lives. Debt is enough to crush us.

In that case, not to mention the rich second generation, I'm afraid I won't even be able to go to school. Isn't the risk high?But my father still took action. Afterwards, I asked him why he was so decisive. He told me that because people rarely encounter opportunities in their lives, as long as they are opportunities, they must be seized, otherwise they may regret it. lifetime.

I clearly remember how dignified the atmosphere at home was at that time. Such days accompanied me through the entire elementary school until I went to middle school, and my father's investment finally succeeded.

Then—and now is now, he seized the opportunity in his life, so he became the so-called local tyrant, and I became the rich second generation in your eyes. "Xiao Zhen spread his hands, showing a proud and proud expression.

"People are always envious of other people's wealth and success, but success is not without reason. In the past, you could say that you had no capital and no opportunities, but now opportunities have appeared. If you choose to give up, then I can only say, Some people are destined to be losers, because they don’t even have the courage to win once, and I absolutely don’t want to be such a person, I want to seize this opportunity.”

Several people listened, but they were all silent for a while. In the past, everyone would only be envious of Xiao Zhenfu's identity as the second generation, but they didn't expect that there was such a story behind it. Xing Tianyu felt particularly complicated in his heart. Indeed, maybe this is why most people only The reasons for being content with the status quo.

He suddenly smiled slightly: "However, being content with the status quo has its benefits. The reason why Xiao Zhen can say this so proudly now is that his father's investment has succeeded, but what if his father's investment fails in the end? Opportunity This kind of thing has always been accompanied by risks, and the risks of the so-called opportunities this time are probably much greater than the risks of your father investing in real estate."

"The risks are indeed great, but the rewards are also higher. As you said before, there is no such thing as a free-for-all in this world. If you want to get something, you have to pay." Xiao Zhen glanced at Qin Ming as he said, "Do you think you have inherited the family property and are very rich now? But don't forget, this villa of yours is in the mountains. This Daqing Mountain is a barren mountain. It has never been heard that anyone is going to develop it, and now The national economy is slowing down. Do you think anyone will be willing to spend money to buy your villa in this mountain? Even if you sell it, you won’t be able to sell it for a lot of money.

What is this little money good for, not to mention that you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life, even if it is used as venture capital for you, it may not be enough. Now it is not the same as it was back then, 100 million is not a big money at all. "

He then looked at Ning Wenrui, "Didn't you always want to start a business? Didn't you always want to start a game company? Now is your chance to summon something that can bring you money and make a fortune , In this way, won’t there be start-up funds?”

He then looked at Xing Tianyu again, "As for you, aren't you worried that you can't find a job?"

"I'm not worried. It's going to be a long time anyway. Besides, if I can't find a job, there is still you."

Xiao Zhen was speechless for a while, he didn't know what to say to Xing Tianyu's shamelessness.

"Even if you rely on me, I have to live. What if I summon something amazing and no one helps me, and then I get killed?"

Xing Tianyu sighed after hearing this, he knew that Xiao Zhen had already made up his mind, and he also felt that Xiao Zhen's words just now had some truth, but he always had a very bad premonition about this matter, just for this reason It's not easy to use it as an excuse.

"Then what about you, why are you so enthusiastic? Do you want to engage in this summoning technique?" At this time, Ning Wenrui, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked.
