Traveling through the second dimension, the joy system encourages me to laugh heartily!

He didn't notice the prompt at all, and it was not until he opened the system interface that he saw the results of last night's battle.

[Ding, recharge with the school beauty Shen Qingyao and gain 1 point of Joy Power. The first recharge will give you an additional 100 points of Joy Power!]

后面还有13条类似的提示，一共获得1+100+13=114点欢愉神力。

After all, he is a man with a system, so the number of times he has happened must be more than the "6 Yuan Malatang Incident".

Men are really strange creatures, their desire to win is inexplicable!

It’s just a pity for Shen Qingyao, who is still sleeping obediently beside him.

Fortunately, Chen Ming could see her favorability—at first, with the help of her D-rank skill [Bottom Skill], her favorability was increasing little by little. (If she didn't use the skill, her favorability wouldn't increase as quickly, and it would even drop if she got hurt.)

It kept rising to 64 points, but then it was deducted by 1 point, which made Chen Ming realize that something was wrong, and that’s why he didn’t fight until dawn.

However, this also made Chen Ming certain that if he wanted to quickly increase his pleasure power, relying solely on a harem was far from enough.

Thinking of this, he immediately took out his mobile phone and opened the Douying APP to continue searching for the 44 public high schools that he had not finished searching yesterday afternoon.

Perhaps his luck had run out yesterday, and today, after searching all the public high schools in Ling'an City, he only found two targets that met the requirements - after all, they had to meet the system's requirements for appearance, figure and purity, and also meet Chen Ming's requirement for a poor family background. It is conceivable that there are very few such girls.

Not only that, after Chen Ming repeated the same trick and sent that simple economic question via private message, he received no reply.

However, when he looked at the beautiful girl sleeping sweetly in his arms, he immediately felt calm and relaxed.

After all, before obtaining the system, the white moonlight from his school days was already something he couldn't even think about, not to mention the girl in his arms, a school beauty who was nine years younger than him...

I never had the chance to be a bootlicker (noun) before, but now I can lick however I want (verb)!!

So my life is already quite comfortable, there is no need to worry too much!

His thoughts returned, Chen Ming put down his phone and went back to sleep happily.

It was not until noon that the two of them got up full of energy.

After getting dressed, Shen Qingyao looked at the bright red rose on the bed, and crystal tears welled up in the corners of her eyes - Chen Ming's name kept echoing in her mind. This was her first man and her only man, and she would remember him for the rest of her life.

"Can I take this sheet back with me?"

Chen Ming looked in the direction of her finger and saw how eye-catching the bright crimson color was on the snow-white bed sheet.

"of course can."

He nodded in agreement. As for the hotel, there was no need to worry about it. It could be settled with some money.

After lunch at the hotel, Shen Qingyao said goodbye to Chen Ming and rushed to the hospital to pay for her mother's surgery.

As for attending classes, she had already asked for leave from her homeroom teacher when school was over yesterday.

After all, it’s okay to miss a few days of classes, but if her mother’s life is saved too late, she will lose it. She still knows what is more important.

Shen Qingyao felt in a good mood after getting into the taxi, much better than the sadness and despair of the past few days.

At least mom is saved!

And although Ming Ge's height and appearance were a bit average, he was only 27 years old, much younger than the 40 or 50 years old she had imagined before she came.

Most girls dream of being tall, rich and handsome, but such things are too scarce and in short supply.

Brother Ming at least has the most important one, which is wealth.

Just like Principal Wang once said - do I need to be handsome? I am so rich, tall, rich and handsome, isn't it enough for me to have one of them? And I have the most important one among them. What's the point of being handsome to me?

So once the filter of being rich is added, Shen Qingyao now thinks back on Brother Ming's appearance and he seems quite handsome!

……

At the same time, on the other side.

Chen Ming had also eaten and rested enough, so he immediately returned to his rental house, opened the system interface and clicked to go to World No. 1.

The time here is still at the moment when he left - dusk.

This means that he will have to travel at night.

Traveling at night is not a big problem, but it is not very convenient to find people at night.

Chen Ming was well prepared for this.

He immediately opened the system mall interface and spent 10 points of joy power to purchase the [Search Device], leaving 104 points.

After purchasing this thing, I can finally see the detailed properties:

【Search instrument】

[Effect: You can search within a one-kilometer radius around you. Women who meet the system's criteria will be marked with a golden dot. You can also enter a woman's name to check if she exists within the one-kilometer radius. A white dot will be marked.]

【Note: There is no limit on the number of uses.】

After returning to the main world, Chen Ming was anxious to make money and obtain the power of pleasure, but it was not just for the sake of pleasure.

He is also doing serious work!

Now with the [Search Device], Chen Ming doesn't even need to enter the village. He can just pass by and search the entire village to confirm whether Talduo is inside.

This greatly improved his search efficiency. He passed through five villages in one night and finally saw a white light in the distance the next morning.

Chen Ming immediately pulled the reins, turned the horse's head, and headed towards the direction of the white light.

The muddy road was very rugged, and the rotten leaves made a sticky "rustling" sound under the horse's hooves. The morning mist wrapped around the woods like a cloud.

After passing a thorn bush covered with dew, the village in the distance finally revealed its true appearance.

Thatched stone houses stand crookedly, and there are common fences and barns outside the stone houses.

However, most of the barns didn't have much food, and even the guard dogs were just skeletons wrapped in dog skins.

There were puddles of water in the deep ruts on the dirt road, and several barefoot children were rummaging through them to look for possible frog eggs.

The sound of horse hooves hitting the soil startled the villagers along the way, who all cast glances of caution, fear, and envy at us...

However, Chen Ming ignored it and came to the door of a farmer's house with a clear goal.

In the yard surrounded by a fence, a woman was carrying a baby on her back, diligently drawing water from the well.

In order to confirm the target's identity, Chen Ming used the system's identification function on the baby.

[Name]: Taldo

Age: 7 months

Height: Growing

【Weight】: Growing

【Overall appearance】: Growing

【Power Bank】：0

【Status】：Poor family, malnourished

[Favorability]: 0

Now that he had found the target, Chen Ming did not hesitate any longer and went straight forward to help lift the bucket out.

"Eh??"

The woman was startled, then stood there at a loss, saying in panic, "Thank you...thank you for your help, sir!"

Although the clothes worn by the visitor were different from those of the lord, the fabric was obviously high-end and not something that ordinary villagers could afford.

So she subconsciously regarded Chen Ming as some aristocrat who liked to wear strange clothes, and her attitude was very respectful.

"You're welcome," Chen Ming put down the bucket and said with a kind smile, "I just want to make a deal with you."

"So it's a deal..."

The woman suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Yes, this village didn't have any special products, and she was the only one who could be favored by the nobleman - after all, before she got married, she was the most beautiful girl in the village.

Thinking about my current situation - my husband passed away a few days after marriage, and the hardship of raising my daughter alone.

The woman gradually came to her senses.

However, what Chen Ming said next was beyond her expectations:

"Just sell your daughter to me and this bag of gold coins will be yours!"

As he spoke, Chen Ming took out a bag containing 100 gold coins.

For him who possesses [Real Manifestation], this just consumes some magic power.

For a commoner, this bag of gold coins is enough to last a lifetime.

However, faced with such a huge temptation, the woman did not accept it happily. Instead, she knelt down and begged, "No, please, don't take my child away... As long as it is within my reach, I am willing to do anything!"

She knew that facing the noble who could easily take out 100 gold coins, she had no room for resistance, so she could only beg.

The woman's reaction was beyond Chen Ming's expectations - according to the original plot of the anime, Talduo was driven out of the village and almost starved to death, which means that there was no one in the village who truly cared about her.

What is the situation of this strong maternal love now?

But soon, Chen Ming reacted.

Because Talduo was driven out of the village when she was ten years old, and she is not even one year old now, it is estimated that something happened during these ten years that led to the death of her mother.

After figuring this out, Chen Ming used the system to identify the woman:

[Name]: Alpha

【Age】：19

[Height]: 165cm

[Weight]: 42kg

【Overall appearance】: 85

[Power Bank]: 1 (Does not meet system standards, charging will not produce joy power.)

[Status]: Widowed, lack of nutrition and excessive fatigue have led to a decline in appearance.

[Favorability]: 15

So that's how it is. After reading the identified information, Chen Ming understood.

Even in a modern society with abundant resources, it is very difficult for a single mother to raise a child.

Not to mention the world with such backward productivity, and in a very poor village, Taldo's mother probably died at a young age due to overwork and lack of nutrition.

Thinking back, Chen Ming immediately changed his original plan and smiled kindly again, "Since Alpha doesn't want to be separated from your child, then sell them to me together. I'll pay more."

As he spoke, Chen Ming took out another bag of gold coins.

Chapter 8: Settling in Another World

Alpha looked at Chen Ming's inhumane attitude, as if these gold coins were blown by the wind.

Immediately, she became more certain of Chen Ming's noble identity.

Not only that, she was not surprised at all that Chen Ming could call out her name - he had even investigated the name in advance, so it turned out that he was here for her, and buying her daughter was just a coincidence!

So Alpha hurriedly said, "No money required, as long as you don't separate me from my child, I am willing to follow and serve the master!"

She was very smart and changed her address to call her master - this nobleman was planning to spend money to buy her, and he certainly didn't want her, a widow, to take her back as his wife. It would be good enough if she could be a concubine.

Since this nobleman is plotting against me, my future food, clothing and other necessities will definitely be guaranteed.

At least it's better than being trapped to death in this poor village - in modern society, beautiful women dare to go out alone to big cities, but this world is not safe. If a beautiful woman dares to go out alone, the possibility of disappearing is extremely high.

Now that a noble has come to him, Alpha will naturally not miss it.

Chen Ming nodded in satisfaction at Alpha's active following, and did not dwell on the reason why she did not accept the money.

Anyway, as long as Talduo gets on his pirate ship, there is no way he can escape.

And there is another benefit of bringing Alpha with him, it can help Chen Ming to understand his thoughts!

Not only did he save Taldo from being driven out of the village and almost starving to death in the future, he also helped Taldo's mother live a healthy life.

Therefore, his behavior of intercepting the heroine was correct, just, metaphysical, to the point, hit the nail on the head, and beyond reproach!

Chen Ming, who was clear-minded, directly materialized a table of delicious food.

Seeing this, Alpha almost suspected she'd starved to death. Or perhaps she'd fallen into a well while fetching water, and all this was just a fantasy conjured by her soul before she drowned... Or perhaps it was a vision of the Kingdom of God... Alpha's mind was swirling with thoughts, her hands occasionally pinching her elastic thighs. She stood there, frozen, not daring to move.

Chen Ming looked at Alpha's reaction and grinned like a Super Idol.
