Chapter 18: Buy Again

"Right, I know, I'll just fiddle a bit first," said Wang Zijia.

Xu Chenglin looked at Wang Zijia and waved his hand, "Alright, as long as you know to prioritise. How much do you want to borrow? But there's a limit, I don't have as much as your father. That gold-gobbling beast of mine almost bankrupted me."

"How about ten Magic Money?" asked Wang Zijia tentatively.

Xu Chenglin's eyebrows twitched and he immediately shook his head: "No, no, that's a year's worth of monthly earnings. I can't afford that much. The most I can lend you is five Magic Money!"

'Sure thing that great Lu Xun never lied, if you want to open a window, start by removing the roof!'

Wang Zijia managed to keep a straight face and replied, "Well, thanks a lot!"

"Wait for me, I'll go home and get it for you. I don't carry that much money on me," Xu Chenglin said. He didn't have a single piece of Magic Money on him; among the warehouse workers like them, perhaps only Wang Zijia ever carried Magic Money around.
