I'm a senior in high school, and the Emperor Development System has arrived!

Chapter 65 A true man is born between heaven and earth; how can he be depressed and sullen for long?

However, he doesn't expect his skills to make money.

Chen Zhou opened the trading market's leaderboard, which listed the names of stocks that had recently hit their daily limit up.

A stock hitting its daily price limit (or "limit up") means that a company's stock price reaches the daily limit for price increases and stops rising.

For ordinary stocks, a 10% increase triggers the daily price limit.

The daily price fluctuation limit for the Science and Technology Innovation Board and the ChiNext Board has been widened to 20%.

Since he doesn't have trading privileges for the Science and Technology Innovation Board or the ChiNext Board, Chen Zhou can only trade main board stocks that have a 10% daily price limit.

Today is January 2025, 8.

Thursday.

Today's A-share market was mediocre, with only about thirty stocks hitting their daily limit.

The fact that there weren't many families made Chen Zhou breathe a sigh of relief.

He sorted the names of these stocks that hit their daily limit up, wrote them down in order from 1 to 30 on an A4 sheet of paper, then tore them into small strips and rolled them into balls.

After scrambling the order, Chen Zhou recited in his mind:
"Wow! Golden Legend!"

Then, Chen Zhou picked up a small piece of paper from the pile of paper balls. It had the number "28" written on it.

It's a sure thing. I'll buy the stock corresponding to this number tomorrow.

Chen Zhou wrote down the name of stock number 28 on a sticky note, then let out a long sigh.

I hope this method will make money.

Thinking for too long takes a toll on brain cells.

Treat yourself to something nice first.

Chen Zhou opened Taobao, searching as he thought:

"Old Deng has been wearing those leather shoes for seven or eight years. It's time to get a new pair. He's reluctant to wear anything too expensive, so something around 800 yuan would be fine."

Chen Zhou swiped his fingers quickly across the phone screen, picked out a pair of leather shoes for his father that cost 799 yuan, and then started thinking about a gift for his mother.

"My mom has had a lot of surgeries lately and keeps complaining of neck pain, so let's buy her a neck massager."

After searching around, Chen Zhou bought a heated massager for 678 yuan.

In the blink of an eye, 1,500 silver dollars disappeared, but Chen Zhou didn't feel any heartache.

Money, you can't take it with you when you die.

If it's gone, you can earn it again...

Uh, no.

If you run out of lottery tickets, just go back to the lottery shop.

After buying things for Lao Deng and his mother, Chen Zhou started picking out a reward for himself.

However, he hesitated when it came to what to buy for himself.

It seems like I don't lack anything.

Is there anything you'd like to buy?

Chen Zhou opened his wish list, and the number one item was—

Choose one from three beauties: Zihart, the Great Demon King, and the Blue and White Love Duo!

Chen Zhou admitted that for a moment he wanted to place the order instantly, but reason stopped him.

He looked at the 32% progress bar of the 100-day foundation building project, then glanced at his underwear, forcing his thoughts to wander:

Does underwear count as a "Ten Thousand Souls Banner"?

If you count, he should be the worst of the worst now.

If not, how is the soul created, and where will it ultimately go?

Chen Zhou couldn't understand it.

I don't want to understand.

But as he thought things through, he calmed down.

After calming down, Chen Zhou beat his chest in frustration, regretting that he had almost ruined his composure.

He thought to himself:
"No, a true man should not be confined by lust for long, born between heaven and earth."

"From this day forward, I will abstain from lust!"

The most important thing in abstaining from lust is to make a firm resolution!
Only lofty aspirations can resist the lustful demons in one's heart!

But what aspirations should I set for myself?
Chen Zhou thought of how people in ancient times liked to use their children's names to express their aspirations, and he couldn't help but ponder the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Liu Bei's two sons.

One was named Liu Feng, and the other Liu Shan, revealing the intention behind the Fengshan ceremony.

Sun Jian had two sons. One was named Sun Quan, and the other Sun Ce, which suggests that he wanted to seize power through strategy and tactics.

What about the Cao family?

Cao Pi, Cao Zhen, Cao Shuang, Cao Ang.

The answer flashed through Chen Zhou's mind, and he quickly sat up.

Indeed, heroes of the world—

Only you and Cao Cao!
In the end, Chen Zhou hesitated for a long time but still didn't place an order to buy anything for himself.

He fell into a deep sleep, and the night passed without incident.

My phone alarm went off right on time this morning.
Listening to this old-fashioned version of "Chengdu," Chen Zhou, in his sleep, inexplicably felt like he needed to defecate, and the urge kept returning to that.

Chen Zhou had another nightmare, finding himself surrounded by a bunch of idiots.

Startled, he woke up immediately and found the culprit making a racket beside him.

Then Chen Zhou transformed into Detective Bao Zheng, turning off the alarm clock with a dark expression, getting up to go to the bathroom to brush his teeth and wash his face:

"The person who made this playlist ringtone is too abstract. It's like boiling water at 100 degrees Celsius."

Seeing that Lao Deng was already busy in the kitchen, Chen Zhou yawned, his eyes dark with dark circles, and subconsciously pushed open the bathroom door.

Unexpectedly, before he could even open the door, it opened by itself.

The moment the door hinge clicked softly, a young girl's face, glistening with morning dew, suddenly bumped into his chest.

Immediately afterwards, a cool breeze carrying the sweet scent of orange blossoms wafted over.

Feeling the thick muscles on Chen Zhou's chest, Lu Mi quickly took two steps back, her face flushed, and greeted him timidly:

"Good morning, Brother Chen Zhou!"

Seeing Lu Mi's skin, which was almost transparently white after she had just finished washing up, and the faint blush on her cheeks, Chen Zhou's heart skipped a beat.

nice!So beautiful!
At this moment, Lu Mi is as beautiful as Aphrodite, the goddess from Greek mythology, with unparalleled charm in every breath she takes.

Chen Zhou took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, then opened the system and consumed 10 points of Imperial Prestige:
Name: Lu Mi

[Inner monologue: Oh ho~ Now that I've used this move, how are you going to resist, senior? Hehehe~ You'd better kneel down at my feet and call me mommy!]

Several black lines appeared on Chen Zhou's forehead.

as predicted.

A premeditated, accidental encounter.

As expected of you, Miss Holy Maiden of the Demonic Cult.

Faced with Lu Mi's little trick, Chen Zhou smiled gently:
"Are you alright? Be careful!"

As he spoke, he casually walked into the bathroom and closed the door, leaving Lu Mi looking bewildered.

Chen Zhou looked at the system panel while washing up:

[Lu Mi's inner thoughts: No? Why is he acting so calmly? Did something go wrong? Wait... could my senior be Nan Tong?]

Chen Zhou's lips twitched slightly, somewhat speechless.

What a joke, is he from Nantong?
This is simply the funniest joke of the 21st century.

Sun Wukong was about to go to the Dragon Palace to steal the Golden Cudgel, and he saw it as soon as he looked down.

His strength speaks for itself, doesn't it?

Chen Zhou, who had just changed his clothes and was packing his things, looked at Lu Mi, who was still in her pajamas, and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Why isn't the little girl in a hurry? Isn't she afraid of being late?
Chen Zhou suddenly realized that the second-year students were still on summer vacation and would not start school until the third-year students finished their make-up classes and the first-year students finished their military training.

The Emperor of Chen was instantly overcome with grief.

really.

It's always the seniors who get hurt.

Seeing his son put on his shoes and get ready to go out, Chen Fang wondered why he was up so early today, and quickly sped up his movements.

Instantly, the sound of enamel basins clattering came from the kitchen, and then Chen Fang shouted outside:
"Just two more minutes, lunch will be ready soon!"

Chen Zhou glanced at the time and called out:
"I have something to do and need to get to school early. Lao Deng, don't rush. I'll just eat in the cafeteria."

Without giving Lao Deng time to think, Chen Zhou grabbed the keys and went out.

Listening to the conversation between the father and son, Lu Mi, who was hanging towels on the balcony, suddenly had a brilliant idea.

She took small, quick steps to the kitchen, looked at Chen Fang's helpless expression, and smiled sweetly:
"Uncle, I'm going to the library to study this morning. Can I bring Chen Zhou's lunch over?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Fang looked at the lunchbox that was mostly prepared and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, saying:

"Thank you so much, Little Deer! You've been a great help!"
