Chapter 787: Chapter 305: The Disparities of the Human World (Requesting Monthly Votes)_2
It was time to look at what the [Employment Package] offered by the Douyin Group included.
Ding!
[The host opened the "Employment Package," please choose from the following rewards]
[1. "Lamborghini Aventador SVJ63 Special Edition" vehicle x1 or "Rolls-Royce Cullinan 2024 Black Badge" vehicle x1]
[2. "Wanliu Academy" random property x1 or "Beidou No. 1 Courtyard" random property x1]
[3. "Cash Red Envelope" x1 or "Random Business All Equity" x1]
...
Huh?
Zhou Wang was taken aback, not expecting another multiple-choice scenario.
After reading the system’s explanation, Zhou seemed to understand that while the three material rewards each offered two choices, their actual values should be pretty much equivalent according to the system’s evaluation.
The Lamborghini Aventador, also known as the "big bull," was more visually striking than the Lamborghini Huracan that Tang Yiming owned, known as the "little bull." As Lamborghini’s flagship model, the Aventador was certainly a head-turner. The only thing Zhou Wang found a bit troubling was...
It was yet another supercar.
And Zhou already had quite a few supercars, including a Ferrari 812C and one of the three legendary cars, the McLaren P1, among others.
But Lamborghini as a brand was something he lacked...
Collecting it wouldn’t be bad.
Moreover, the system rewarded not an ordinary "big bull," but the globally limited SVJ63 Special Edition, with only 63 units, which was even cooler.
After all, the Lamborghini belonged to the highly collectible models that even money might not buy.
However, in terms of practicality, the 2024 Cullinan Black Badge was a better choice.
Sister had already asked Ding Yi to buy a car in Beidou, but she barely drove it, so Zhou only needed to consider his likes or just choose the Cullinan directly.
As for the two properties rewarded by the system, Zhou also faced a dilemma.
Both were among Beidou’s top ten luxury communities. "Wanliu Academy" didn’t need further explanation—it had been popular for more than a day or two. The apartment was a cross-ventilated plank house, and its fantastic location connected Beidou University, just a thousand meters’ walk from Yihe Garden...
Behind Wanliu Academy was Beidou’s largest golf course, making living conditions incredibly convenient.
But damn, the "Beidou No. 1 Courtyard" was also great, featuring a giant flat, and it was equally a prime location, loved by the nouveau riche.
Interestingly, these two communities, one in West Third Ring and another in East Third Ring, faced each other from afar.
As for prices, they were similar, with apartment sizes ranging from over 200 to over 400 square meters, and the average price was two to three hundred thousand.
For Zhou Wang now, such extravagant luxury homes, priced at a lofty small goal, couldn’t stir much excitement. They were merely more places to stay in Beidou.
Considering Jiang Mo, "Wanliu Academy" was more suitable, as it was closer to everywhere she frequented...
As for the third reward, normally, Zhou wouldn’t think twice about choosing "All Equity of Business." Since the system directly marked it as a "business," there was no doubt about its profitability.
But he was a bit "broke" at the moment, with cash on hand not exceeding Ten Million...
Last time in Hang City, Zhou opened a [Cash Red Envelope] and got 1.66 million. That [Cash Red Envelope] would at least have over Ten Million, just enough to fill the gap in his current finances.
A very conflicted Zhou opened his eyes, meeting the gaze of the assistant who was helping him relax his scalp.
The assistant didn’t expect Zhou to suddenly open his eyes, blushed, but mustered up the courage to smile at Zhou.
"Do you have a tattoo?"
Zhou asked abruptly.
The assistant was momentarily confused but soon shyly replied, "No... I’m pretty obedient, I wouldn’t get one."
"That’s no fun."
Zhou shook his head and closed his eyes again.
"?

Meanwhile, not far from the Waldorf, in the Wangfu Peninsula Hotel, also located in the bustling Beidou city center.
This hotel, formerly known as the "Wangfu Hotel," was also an old five-star hotel in Beidou, having enjoyed its past glory. However, in a city like Beidou, the high-end hotel industry was just as competitive, and its position today was not as prominent as before.
Of course, sitting meticulously applying eyeshadow in front of the vanity mirror, Cheng Yiyi was still very satisfied.
This was, after all, a renowned international hotel in Beidou, and here she sat by the window of this luxurious suite. Turning her head, she could see the brilliant lights of Beidou.
"A world of prosperity upon entry, tranquility and solitude upon return."
This was a phrase Cheng Yiyi saw by chance and really liked.
Isn’t this the kind of life we pursue?
The reason she chose to be a "flight attendant" was because she appreciated the convenience of flying for free and experiencing the world’s bustling places.
Yet, after working for a few months, Cheng Yiyi realized that this world’s prosperity was still too expensive.
Even if she could save on fares, the disparities in life were not reflected in just an airplane ticket.
You could visit the Maldives and merely see the sea, maybe gritting your teeth to swipe your credit card to enjoy one snorkeling trip or a yacht outing. Others leisurely sipped high-end champagne, while you fretted over a 50-RMB cola for half a day...
You could go to Japan’s capital, post a WeChat moment under the Eastern Capital Tower, enjoying brief envy, but when you turned around, you faced a city dubbed "shopping paradise," lacking the courage even to stroll through the malls...
Cheng Yiyi, who came from a petty-bourgeois family, wasn’t poorly off, but just relying on cajoling and whining to her parents for mere tens of thousands in pocket money couldn’t sustain the endlessly growing desires that came with her expanding horizons.
On a somewhat humorous note, if it weren’t for Song Rui covering all the expenses, Cheng Yiyi wouldn’t even qualify to "relax" in Beidou.
"Yiyi, are you ready... Yange and Song Rui are waiting downstairs."
With the sound of high heels clapping on the floor, the glamorously dressed Xu Jing came in, urging.
"Almost done, I think my eyeshadow is failing. Let me fix it... Wow, Xiaojing, isn’t your outfit a bit too extravagant?"
Cheng Yiyi turned her head around by chance and was surprised to see Xiaojing dressed in such a lavish manner.
She hadn’t known where Xiaojing found this strapless dress—its material looked high-end, and this scheming girl Xu Jing used some "Gathering Evil Technique" to make a striking cleavage on the previously ordinary neckline.
"Does it look good?"
Xu Jing smiled smugly, twirling to show Cheng Yiyi her exposed fair back.
"It’s okay, but isn’t it a bit over-the-top... We’re just attending a private party, not a grand gala."
Cheng Yiyi was a bit confused.
"Oh my gosh, Yiyi, didn’t you zone out when Yange mentioned it that day?"
Xu Jing exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Just a party? Do you hear yourself... This is a gathering organized by the ’Beidou Four Young Masters.’ If it weren’t for Yange, we wouldn’t have a chance to get into such a high-class circle for a lifetime!"
"If you’re not seizing this cross-circle opportunity, what are you doing?"
After saying this, Xu Jing started humming her soundtrack, went outside, and fetched another quite fancy dress.
"Here, Yiyi, I rented one for you too. No need to thank me, but remember to keep the tag hidden... If the tag accidentally gets ripped off, you might as well prepare to eat dirt for the next three months!"
Succumbing to Xu Jing’s persuasion, Cheng Yiyi nodded.
"Alright, but... I might need some help wearing it."
