The Billion-Value Lands Are Just For Farming

Chapter 391

Chapter 391 - System Are You Fooling Me??

Su Ming was taken aback by the System's description of the skill.

Flattery?

Was the System playing tricks on him?

After all, he was Mr. Su, a name well-known among the top executives in Eastsea.

Did he really need to resort to flattery?

The idea seemed preposterous.

Yet, as Su Ming stroked his chin, he considered that the skill might be a good fit for President Chen.

President Chen's aptitude for flattery was already exceptional.

It was possible that his own flattery skills surpassed the level of this skill.

Initially, the skill seemed like a joke, drawing Su Ming's mockery.

But upon deeper reflection, he recognized its potential power.

What do people value in modern society?

Interpersonal relationships.

Connections start with conversation.

If a person knows how to flatter, whether they work in government or private sector, even as a janitor, they can thrive.

History is filled with those who've climbed the ladder of success through flattery, as well as those who've met their demise for angering others with insincere praise.

At first glance, the skill might seem off-putting.

However, Su Ming realized it's a coveted ability that many yearn for but never attain.

Mastering the art of flattery could easily lead to wealth.

Nevertheless, the skill held no value for Su Ming.

He was an energetic young man with a farming system; he didn't need to depend on such a skill.

With resolve, Su Ming mentally commanded, “Recycle!”

“Host, congratulations on the successful point exchange. You've earned 400 points!”

Su Ming reached for the second skill and unfurled the scroll.

”Ding! Congratulations, Host, on acquiring the flirting skill! This skill enables you to charm countless women without repercussions or discovery. It's an essential skill for any gentleman!”

Hearing the prompt in his mind, Su Ming was momentarily dumbfounded.

Was the System intentionally doing this?

He wasn't bothered by the previously acquired flattery skill.

But what was the intention behind this new skill for hitting on people?

What was the System suggesting he do?

He was the refined, erudite, and virtuous Young Master Su.

Would he engage in such behavior?

Nonetheless, the skill had its merits.

Recently, the entertainment industry had been rocked by scandals involving celebrities caught in affairs.

If they possessed that skill, they would certainly be alright.

Su Ming had a fleeting thought, which he quickly dismissed.

He was an honest man and couldn't bring himself to engage in such activities.

He didn't desire the skill; he intended to exchange it for points.

“Host, congratulations on the successful point exchange. You've earned 200 points!”

Su Ming reached out and claimed the third skill.

“Host, congratulations on acquiring the Stinky Appraiser. This skill enables you to discern any foul odor with ease.”

“Recycle!”

Su Ming instructed the System to reclaim the skill before it could finish its explanation.

He then unfurled the fourth scroll.

“Host, congratulations on gaining the skill that prevents you from getting drunk, no matter how much alcohol you consume.”

“Recycle!”

His alcohol tolerance was already exceptionally high.

He had amassed several skills in quick succession: Divine Level bicycle repair, Divine Level cleaning, and Divine Level laziness.

Su Ming had a strong hunch that the System was doing this deliberately.

The excitement Su Ming once felt had faded, leaving him somewhat desensitized.

He instinctively reached for the next scroll.

Upon opening it, he was taken aback.

Normally, a scroll would transform into a burst of golden light and vanish, followed by the System detailing the skill's functionality.

But this scroll remained, perfectly intact in his hand, and at its center, a large question mark loomed.

What could this be?

Su Ming was perplexed.

Was this the Wide Knowledge Technique, designed to foster a love for learning and inquiry?

That didn't seem right.

If that were the case, his brain would have received some sort of notification.

At the very least, the System should offer some clarification.

What was happening?

“Host, congratulations on unlocking a hidden quest.”

“Mission details: pending!”

“Mission reward: you can activate special items in the store!”

Hearing the prompt in his mind, Su Ming was astounded.

He had stumbled upon a hidden quest?

This was fantastic!

Most notably, the reward for completing the mission was the ability to activate special items in the store.

These items had puzzled Su Ming for quite some time.

At last, he had the chance to unlock them!

Su Ming burst into hearty laughter.

Still, the vague nature of the mission left him with a hint of curiosity.

What was the mission about? That remained to be seen. But now, he had the opportunity to unlock the special items in the mall. This was a far better situation than passively waiting for those items to become available. Fantastic!

Feeling content, Su Ming realized he had made some progress today. In high spirits, he continued to examine the scrolls. The rest of the skills were quite mundane, so he had the System reclaim them.

He then turned his attention to the final scroll. Having already secured a hidden mission, Su Ming felt he had already reaped substantial rewards. His expectations for this last scroll weren't high as he reached out and took it.

“Host, congratulations on acquiring the God-level Musical Instrument Mastery. This skill enables you to play any musical instrument. Anything capable of producing sound can be considered an instrument in your hands! You'll be able to create beautiful music with any instrument!”

Mastering musical instruments? That was incredible.

Su Ming paused, his eyes widening in surprise. Back in his college days, he remembered the cool guys with their long hair and scruffy beards, strumming guitars on the stairways. They played a song called “In Spring,” their melancholic demeanor captivating countless girls. Those guys had an easy time winning over the girls.

While Su Ming wasn't particularly interested in that aspect, he did want to acquire more skills. And this one was undoubtedly useful.

Without hesitation, Su Ming clicked the learn button. In the next instant, his mind felt like it was exploding with a powerful surge of energy. It was an intense sensation that, while not painful, left him feeling slightly groggy.

But the feeling passed quickly, and when Su Ming opened his eyes once more, he had mastered the art of playing every musical instrument in the world. It was an exhilarating achievement.

Su Ming couldn't help but laugh heartily. He had indeed learned an impressive skill.

“Host, you have successfully harvested your crops. You've earned 100,000 experience points! And you've received an extra bonus of 20,000 experience points!”

“Host, congratulations, you've earned 10,000 experience points! And you've received an additional bonus of 2,000 experience points!”
