"Have you found a job?"

Lynch, who had just turned around from the outside and came home, looked at his cooking girlfriend and shook his head with some guilt.

My girlfriend is neither disappointed nor too emotional. It's like... It's normal that I can't find a job.

Lynch tried to avoid verbal communication. He was afraid that the woman sleeping next to him every day would see his abnormality.

With a deformed frying pan, his girlfriend went to the broken wooden table with some shaking paint, put a fried egg on a plate of broken meat, and then sat down.

"Don't think so much. I still have some money here. Maybe you can find a job tomorrow. Eat first!"

Lynch nodded and began to enjoy a less delicious dinner.

The fork pierces the slightly solidified outer layer of the egg, and the egg yolk flows thick on the broken meat pieces, just like a natural seasoning or some sauce, making these meat pieces more attractive.

He ate mechanically, but his mind was thinking about other things.

He crossed. He didn't know what the scientific principle was or why, but in short, he crossed.

Before crossing, he had done a lot of work, such as courier, insurance salesman, running shop, half pulling cook.

He had done many small jobs in the past 30 years, and great changes had taken place after he was 30.

In his later words, he used the previous 30 years to accumulate experience, and then his accumulated and eloquent speech successfully moved the judge

Then after he slept in that small room for the first time and planned to publish an autobiography to recall his legendary life, he gradually fell into sleep and crossed the river.

As soon as I crossed, I appeared in this home. The owner of this body happened to be Lynch, but this is another world that has nothing to do with "previous life".

He has nothing but a girlfriend.

Now he is like the most failed kind of social scum. He eats and lives with his girlfriend. In addition to helping his girlfriend solve some problems at night, he is like a parasite.

These days, he has been making excuses to go out looking for a job. He has a strange feeling about the world.

For example, in the 1940s and 1950s, or the 1950s and 1960s, science and technology were not very developed, but at the same time, it was in the outbreak of science and technology.

Many products constantly appear in front of the public, which makes people dizzy. He saw the slogan on the publicity poster - "Ai ruidai, a trace of a Niu Dai" on the street

In his opinion, the world and society are full of money. He just needs to bend down and pick it up.

His blood is boiling slightly, and his heart has become strong. There is a desire in his heart. He firmly believes that there is a reason for his passage.

Perhaps, some things let me come here just to let me leave my legend here!

"Let's get hot water and take a bath today..." my girlfriend told me while she was cleaning up her dishes.

Lynch nodded and stood up. As he walked towards the bathroom not far away, he asked casually, "we just washed yesterday..."

During this period of time, he found that he and his girlfriend had a very clear life plan, which was not completely messy.

Now the weather is neither hot nor cold. If you don't exercise violently, you're not easy to sweat, so you basically don't need to take a bath every day.

It's not that people don't want to clean their bodies every day, just because they have to pay for clothes and hot water.

Rich people don't care about these small money. They even install a boiler in their house to provide heating system and buy a washing machine to wash clothes anytime and anywhere.

But for the poor, these are unnecessary and unaffordable expenses, so their lives must become regular.

Their life is to save every penny by carefully calculating every expenditure and abiding by the law of life like monks.

It's not that they want regularity, it's more because of poverty.

His girlfriend turned and walked to the edge of the pool, unscrewed the valve and washed the tableware. "After 12 p.m., our hot water will stop. We'll pay again next week, so we can save some money."

Lynch shrugged. He went into the bathroom, turned on the valve, let go of the front cold water, and the steaming hot water flowed out of the pipe.

After taking a bath, they lay in a narrow bed and soon fell asleep.

Lynch's girlfriend works as a cashier in a supermarket. She works ten hours a day, including an hour's rest.

She often gets some temporary or expired food or cheap daily necessities from the supermarket, which is why they can live with only one person working.

They were classmates in high school. Neither of them was able to enter the University. Lynch worked as a worker for some time. Later, he gave up because he was too tired.

Catherine, her girlfriend, found the job in the supermarket and maintained it all the time.

This is a typical loser family. No matter Lynch or Catherine, they don't know how long this life can last.

Maybe they can hold on until the day they enter the palace of marriage, and then continue to struggle for a lifetime.

But it is also possible to end this fragile relationship anytime, anywhere because of the sudden outbreak of some emotions.

Early the next morning, Lynch simply freshened up. Catherine had left, leaving a box of doughnuts and a bottle of milk on the table.

He went to the side of the cupboard, poured the milk into the pot and heated it. He glanced at the shelf life. Not surprisingly, it had expired for two days.

Such milk is the kind that needs to be handled directly in the supermarket and thrown into the dustbin, but many supermarket employees are willing to endure long working hours and low salary.

What they like is these things that can be obtained free of charge.

The strong milk smell makes people intoxicated. Lynch is used to soaking some things with hot milk, while Catherine and others are used to soaking directly. It feels very bad.

After breakfast, he simply took care of his image, came to a street not far from where they rented and stopped.

He hasn't done anything these days. Of course, this doesn't mean he's looking for a job. He's just thinking about where to get his first money.

Although this world is very different from another world, there are traces of the development of some things.

For example, you know that a hundred years later, the land under your feet is full of land and gold. For example, you know that the price of works of art soars year by year. For example, you know

Everyone will feel ambitious when standing in Lynch's current position, because most of them can grasp the pulse of the future.

But the problem is that most people's ambition can only make ambition, it will not be realized, because now is not the future, and everything needs capital.

Cost?

This thing will not fall from the sky, nor will it come from the flood. In fact, many people have no ability to change their lives even if they are given the opportunity to go back to the past.

Maybe, but some are limited. They may buy one or two more houses, and then wait until they are old and look at twice as many assets as in their previous life, which is different from what they thought at the beginning.

Some people are destined to dance, and some people can't do anything even if they give them a chance.

Obviously, Lynch is the former. He has all the qualities. He has succeeded, which is the decisive key.

He stood here staring at a laundry across the road for most of the morning, and wrote and drew in a book. He was making his first pot of gold.

Towards noon, when the flow of people in the street began to decline, two guys in windbreaker stood in front of them. One of them put his hand in the windbreaker and seemed to hold something.

"Mr Fox wants to see you, friend!"

These two people are not good people at first sight. Of course, Lynch may have thought too much. He has no fear at this time. Instead, he smiled, "I've been waiting for you for several days. What are you waiting for? Lead the way!"
