Back home after a walk, Lynch saw his girlfriend cooking. He shook his head apologetically.

Her girlfriend wasn't disappointed, nor did she show much emotional fluctuation. It was as if... not finding a job was a very normal thing.

Lin Qi tried his best to avoid verbal communication, fearing that the woman who slept beside him every day might notice his abnormality.

Her girlfriend carried a slightly warped frying pan to the wobbly, chipped wooden table and placed a fried egg on top of some minced meat. Then she sat down.

"Don't worry so much, I have some money here, maybe you can find a job tomorrow. Let's eat first!"

Lin nodded and began to eat his dinner, which wasn't very good.

The fork pierces through the slightly solidified outer layer of the egg, and the thick yolk flows onto the pieces of meat like a natural sauce or condiment, making them more appealing.

He mechanically ate his food, but his mind was preoccupied with other things.

He travelled through time. He didn't know what scientific principle, or any other reason, caused this, but nonetheless, he travelled through time.

Before crossing over, he had done many jobs, delivery man, insurance salesman, running errands, half-chef...

For thirty years before his time travel, he did many unremarkable small jobs. After the age of thirty, a huge change occurred.

According to him later, he spent the first thirty years accumulating experience and then, with a well-crafted and moving speech, successfully swayed the judge...

Then, as he lay in that cramped room for the first time, intending to write an autobiography chronicling his legendary life, he gradually drifted off to sleep, only to find himself transported elsewhere.

I was instantly transported to this home upon crossing over. The body I now inhabit also belongs to a person named Lin Chi, but this is a completely different world, unrelated to my past life at all.

He had nothing but a girlfriend.

He now resembles the most pathetic social scum. He eats off his girlfriend, lives off her, and besides helping her with some problems at night, he's just like a parasite.

He has been making excuses to go out and look for a job these days, wandering around. This world gives him a strange sense of novelty.

It feels like the 1940s or 50s, or perhaps the 1950s or 60s. Technology wasn't very advanced, but it was also a period of technological explosion.

A multitude of products constantly appear before people, overwhelming their senses. As he walked down the street, he saw a slogan on a promotional poster: "Ari Dai, A Thread of Niu Dai." In his view, this world, this society, was paved with gold; all he needed to do was bend down and pick it up.

His blood was simmering, his heart pounding with newfound strength. Deep within him, a yearning burned; he believed with every fiber of his being that his journey through time held purpose.

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

“Go get the hot water, we’re taking a bath today...” , his girlfriend said while she was washing the dishes.

Lin nodded, stood up, and walked towards the bathroom not far away. As he walked, he casually asked, "We just showered yesterday..."

Over the course of his journey through time, he discovered that he and his girlfriend had a very clear life plan, and it wasn't entirely chaotic.

The weather isn't hot or cold right now. You don't sweat easily unless you do strenuous exercise, so you basically don't need to shower every day.

This isn't because people are unwilling to clean their bodies every day, it's simply because washing clothes and using hot water both cost money.

Wealthy people don't mind these small expenses. They even install a boiler in their own houses to provide heating systems and buy a washing machine to do laundry anytime, anywhere.

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

They live by meticulously budgeting every expense and adhering to a monastically disciplined lifestyle in order to save every penny.

It’s not that they desire order, it's more because of poverty.

Her girlfriend turned and walked to the sink, turning on the tap to wash the dishes. “After twelve o’clock tonight, our hot water will be shut off. We can wait until next week to pay the bill, that way we can save some money.”

Lin Qi shrugged and walked into the bathroom. He turned on the faucet, let out the coldest water first, and then hot steamy water flowed from the pipe.

After showering, the two lay down on the narrow bed and quickly fell asleep.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lin Qi's girlfriend works in a supermarket as a cashier, working ten hours a day, including a one-hour break.

She often picks up some near-expiry or expired food, or cheap household items from the supermarket. This is also one of the reasons why the two of them can get by even though only one person works.

>

The two were classmates during high school, and neither of them managed to get into university. Lin Qi had worked as a laborer for a while, but later gave it up because the work was too tiring.

Katherine, or rather her girlfriend, found a job at the supermarket and kept it.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

This is a very typical failing family. Neither Lin Qi nor Katherine knows how much longer this kind of life can be maintained.

Perhaps they could make it to the altar and then continue to endure for a lifetime.

But it is also possible that at any time, due to the sudden outburst of certain emotions, this fragile relationship could end.

The next morning, Lin Qi simply washed up. Katherine had already left, leaving a box of cereal and a bottle of milk on the table.

Here is the text translation:

He walked to the cupboard and poured the milk into the pot to heat it up, glancing at the expiration date as he did so. It was no surprise that it had been expired for two days.

This kind of milk in supermarkets is all meant to be dealt with directly, thrown into the trash. But many supermarket employees are willing to endure extremely long working hours and low wages just to work in a supermarket.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

What they are after are these things that can be obtained for free.

The rich milk flavor was intoxicating. Lin Qi was used to using hot milk to soak things, while Catherine and others were used to soaking directly in it, which felt terrible.

After finishing breakfast, he tidied up his appearance briefly and came to a street not far from where they were renting.

He wasn't doing nothing these days, of course, this didn't mean he was looking for a job. He was just thinking about where his first pot of money should come from.

Although this world is vastly different from another, there are still discernible patterns in the development of certain things.

For example, do you know that the land under your feet will be worth its weight in gold a hundred years from now Do you know that the price of art will soar year after year Do you know...

Every person standing in Lynch's position now would have a sense of ambition and grandeur, because most of them can grasp the pulse of the future.

But the problem is that most people's grand ambitions can only remain as grand ambitions, they won't be realized because now is not the future, and anything, requires capital.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Where does the capital come from

This thing wouldn't have fallen from the sky, nor would it have drifted in on a flood. In fact, many people wouldn't even change their lives if they were given the chance to go back in time.

Maybe, but some have limits. They might buy one or two more houses and then when they're old, they can stare at an asset that's doubled compared to their previous life, which isn't quite what they had in mind when they started.

Some people are destined to shake things up, while others, even if given the chance, are incapable of doing so.

It is obvious that Lin Qi is the former. He already possesses all the qualities, and his success is the decisive factor.

He stood there staring at a laundromat across the street for most of the morning, and scribbling in a notebook. He was making his first dollar.

As noon approached and the flow of people on the street began to dwindle, two men in trench coats blocked their path. One of them had his hand tucked into his coat, as if holding something.

Mr. Fox wants to see you, friend!

These two people don't look like good guys at all, of course, it could also be that Lin Qi is overthinking things. He didn't have the slightest fear at this time, instead a smile appeared on his face, "I've been waiting for you guys for days, what are you still waiting for, lead the way!"
