"Of course, what's Sunrise Corporation compared to our Dimension of Wealth? A commoner's toilet from our world could be exchanged for dozens of such trashy conglomerates."

"Damn, seriously? That's awesome. I want a hundred Lamborghinis and at least a dozen British-style castles. Oh, and I want thousands of maids prettier than popular celebrities to serve me alone. Imagine the thrill of seeing a different beauty every day."

Justin had already started fantasizing about his future life. Being cheated on, despised, and treated as a backup option were no longer concerns for him.

"You can have all that, but first, Master, you must complete some system tasks," the system's prompt sounded. "If you can't complete the tasks I provide, it means your qualifications are insufficient. Not only will you be unable to receive my help, but you'll also lose the usage rights of this system, and I will look for the next Master."

"System tasks?" Justin was confused. "What tasks?"

"Spend money like crazy, play the fool to catch the wise, and put on an act to slap faces... You must make full use of the system's features and functions."

"Hell, I like these tasks."

"Good. The system will release the first task. Within the next hour, you will have access to unlimited funds provided by the system. I can help you buy Sunrise Corporation and become its chairman. Your task is to slap the faces of that despicable couple and show off your wealthy demeanor."

Justin had just been thinking about how to deal with the couple, and the system quickly gave him such a perfect task. It was incredibly thoughtful.

Buying Sunrise Corporation and showing off his wealthy demeanor within an hour seemed a bit challenging. Justin murmured to himself, took out his phone, and wanted to check the situation of Sunrise Corporation. He had only an hour, but he wasn't worried about the money. After all, he had just checked his account and found it filled with an innumerable amount of zeros!

"Master, why bother with such trouble? Watch me."

The system automatically purchased the services of eight business elites and began negotiating acquisition matters.

Justin was puzzled, but soon, a Rolls-Royce stopped in front of him, and eight beauties in black suits carrying several briefcases stepped out.

They respectfully approached Justin, opened the briefcases on the table, bowed slightly, and said, "Boss, we apologize for being late. This is a portion of the funds you entrusted us to withdraw from the bank. Please check and accept it."

"Who are you?"

Justin still didn't understand what was going on. He didn't know these eight beauties. Why were they calling him their boss?

"Wait, System, are these the business elites you brought?"

"Yes, they will negotiate on your behalf. Just wait to become the chairman."

Half an hour later, the eight business elites emerged from the Sunrise Building and reported the results to Justin.

The Sunrise Building was magnificent, befitting the largest corporation in Nova City. The building's appearance alone demonstrated the company's strength.

At that moment, over a hundred employees were standing in the lobby.

At the front stood General Manager Benjamin Lee and Deputy General Manager Matthew Turner.

Behind them were the seven department managers, including Christopher Lee, who had stolen Justin's girlfriend. He had been planning to hit the bar, but a call from his father made him return.

The rest of the department heads and company employees lined up on both sides of the road.

They had just received sudden news that Sunrise Corporation would soon welcome a new chairman who was about to take office. So the general manager and all the employees were there to greet the new chairman's arrival.

Whispers spread throughout the crowd of employees.

"Who could this new chairman be? To be suddenly parachuted into our company as the chairman," a curious employee asked.

"It goes without saying that he must be an extraordinary person."

At that moment, Olivia, who stood among the crowd, shared some gossip.

"As far as I know, he seems to be even more impressive than our Chairman Smith, a young and wealthy entrepreneur."

"What? More impressive than Chairman Smith?"

The employees were astonished. Chairman Smith was the owner of the entire Sunrise Corporation and the wealthiest person in Nova City. His every action could cause a sensation. How amazing must this newcomer be to surpass him?

"Is it true?"

"Yeah, is it true? You're not just trying to scare us, are you?"

The employees all looked at Olivia.

"Of course it's true. Mr. Lee himself just told me. I'm his woman now; he wouldn't lie to me," Olivia boasted.

"Olivia, now that you're with Mr. Lee, you must look after us!"

"And me too, Olivia! I've taken care of you in the past, so don't forget about me."

"I always knew Olivia was different from us, not only possessing a stunning figure but also an elegant demeanor. No wonder she captured Mr. Lee's heart."

"The first time I saw Olivia, I thought she was incredibly beautiful."

...

For a moment, the surrounding employees began to flatter and fawn over Olivia due to her relationship with Christopher Lee. She was clearly enjoying the adulation and felt elated. At the same time, she felt relieved to have made the wise decision to break up with Justin, the loser. Otherwise, how could she have enjoyed her time of triumph?

Just then, a figure appeared before the crowd.

This person was none other than Justin, the new chairman coming to take over Sunrise Corporation.

"Why is he here?" Olivia's smug expression crumbled upon seeing Justin.

Christopher, standing among the crowd, also recognized Justin.

"Kid, stay right there!" He marched forward to confront Justin.

"Get lost, kid. I have important things to deal with and no time to play with you. Scram, trash," Christopher snapped.

Enraged, Justin's eyes flashed with cold fury. He strode forward and slapped Christopher across the face.

The crowd was dumbstruck, and Christopher reeled from the blow, nearly falling to the ground.

"Justin Wilson, you...!"

"How dare you hit me?"

"Heh, idiot!"

"I'll kill you!"

Enraged, Christopher prepared to retaliate but was blocked by the eight business elites accompanying Justin.

"Justin Wilson, stop clinging to me like a parasite. Let me make it clear, I will never get back together with a loser like you. The more you pester me, the more disgusted I feel."

"Don't worry, I have no interest in a gold-digger like you. Even if you begged me, I wouldn't spare you a glance. Now, get lost."

"Who are you to make me beg? You should take a good look at yourself and realize what you are before dreaming about me begging you," Olivia scoffed.

But in the next second, a slap landed on her face, leaving her completely stunned.

"How dare you! This is our new chairman. You dare to speak to him like that? You're fired; now get out," someone shouted.

    A business elite strode forward, slapping the woman's face without hesitation. They were created by the system, and in some respects, they could represent it.The system had long been displeased with these people and decided to teach them a lesson through the elite's hands."Who are you? What gives you the right to hit me?""You don't need to know who I am. You just need to know that you've offended our boss. Now get out of here immediately."Olivia had intended to argue further, but at that moment, another Bentley arrived outside.Sunrise Corporation's former chairman, Gabriel Smith, entered with a group of people.

    Justin approached Matthew Turner, whose face paled in fear. Matthew hurriedly spoke, "Mr. Wilson, I am not in league with Benjamin Lee. I am absolutely loyal to Sunrise Corporation. Please discern the truth."Justin waved his hand, smiling, "Manager Turner, there's no need to panic. We have no grudges between us, and I'm not here to cause trouble. On the contrary, I'm here to promote you and raise your salary. Starting today, you'll be promoted from deputy general manager to general manager. From now on, I'll need your help in overseeing both major and minor affairs within the company.""Really?""Of course it's true. Do I look like I'm joking with you?"In fact, Justin had already learned about Matthew Turner's background. He was a highly competent individual who had handled many matters well, but he had always been suppressed by Benjamin Lee. This prevented him from fully showcasing his talents, and he often had to take the blame for Benjamin's actions—a truly regrettable situation.

    "Exactly, just a pauper. Even if he's here to buy something, look at his shabby appearance. What can he afford?""I don't know what our boss was thinking, letting a young girl like her work here. She's been here for a while and has no sales performance. She'll probably be fired soon. Then, people like him who can't afford clothes won't come and tarnish our store's environment."Overhearing their gossip, Justin remembered that he had entered the store to shop.

    Justin escorted Ava home and made sure she was settled before returning to his rented house in Nova City. The place was a mere 30 square meters, and despite its size, the monthly rent was still a whopping $1,200.This was already the cheapest rent in the entire city. Even so, he hadn't paid rent for three months. His landlady had warned him just a day before that if he didn't pay up, she would throw all his belongings out.As Justin approached his front door, he found it wide open. His clothes, luggage, and various knick-knacks were strewn across the yard, many of them damaged beyond use."Well, if it isn't Justin. You've finally decided to show your face."A sharp, mocking voice pierced his ears, instantly souring his mood. Justin glanced over at the speaker, his expression darkening."What's the matter, young man? Every time rent is due, you're nowhere to be seen. I thought you might've died out there or something."Victoria was a woman in her 40s, plump and mean-spirited. She looke

    Upon catching a glimpse of Justin's eyes, the woman felt as if she had plunged into an icy abyss. A chill emanated from the depths of her bones, causing her hair to stand on end."What do you want? If you keep this up, I won't hold back! I'll call for help!""What do I want? You should know better. Weren't you asking for the rent? Fine, I'll give it to you now, but be prepared to catch it.""Really?"As soon as Justin mentioned paying her, the woman's expression changed instantly."How wonderful it would've been if you had done this sooner. At least you know when to yield. Where's the money? Hurry up and bring it out. Let me tell you, you scared me half to death just now, so the rent is no longer the same. You need to compensate me for emotional distress and the loss of my youth. Here's the deal, not too much or too little, just give me $10,000.""$10,000? This woman has really grown increasingly greedy. Justin is just a poor lad; how could he possibly come up with that much money? I'

He vowed to live a vibrant life and make something of himself."System, I want to participate in the lottery.""Understood. The lottery interface is now activated. Master, would you like to use your free lottery draw?"Without hesitation, Justin nodded. He was eager to get started. A mechanical sound echoed in his mind, followed by the appearance of a spinning wheel. The wheel spun for a while before finally stopping on a book-like icon."Congratulations, Master! You have obtained the 'Beginner Brazilian Jiu-jitsu' manual!""Congratulations, Master! On your first draw, you have won 50 Super Rich Points!""Congratulations, Master!

Unlike his usual mornings, he felt incredibly refreshed and alert.

His every move was a perfect reflection of the white-robed elder's demonstration from his dream.In the early morning, the garden was bustling with travelers coming and going. Many people would wake up early to exercise and breathe in the fresh air. Most of them jogged or did simple aerobic exercises, but none of them practiced Brazilian Jiu-jitsu as leisurely as Justin.Completely immersed in his practice, Justin performed the Brazil

    Soon after ingesting it, the old man coughed and retched up a pool of black blood, gradually regaining clarity. When he lifted his gaze to see his eldest before him, he trembled in excitement, hands fumbling to caress Justin's face."My boy, you've come back! Where have you been all this time? Do you know what chaos ensued in the family during your absence?""Old master, please calm yourself. I'm not your son. Listen as I explain everything."With that, they helped the old man out of his coffin and into an armchair. The same confusion swirled in everyone's minds. Justin then removed his disguise, reverting to his original appearance, and carefully reiterated the events leading up to this moment.

    Naturally the pretender had no knowledge of this, so he pondered briefly before replying."I believe it was the left foot.""Wrong. I wasn't actually bitten because Mother saved me in time, though she gashed her left arm in the process. You didn't know about that incident, did you?" "I'm sure the esteemed guests here remember the day my mother's arm was bleeding profusely when I was seven. Uncle, I recall you drove her to get treated at the hospital. Am I right?""Yes, yes, I remember now. The mistress did injure her arm back then, and I personally took her to the hospital. She specifically instructed me not to inform anyone else, to avoid worry. There's no mistake, he is the young master, the true heir.""Hmph, you think such hearsay can prove I'm fake? I could just as well say you bribed the uncle to deceive everyone. Nobody else witnessed that old incident anyway, so you can make up whatever story you want.""Still unconvinced? Then I'll reveal one more fact known only to my clos

With it, you can imitate anyone's voice to 99% accuracy."Justin was intrigued, though the skill's price gave him pause. But with his endless fortune of points, the cost was trivial.After purchasing, vocal techniques instantly filled his mind. He softly hummed along to the recording, astonishing the siblings. With just a line, his cadence and tone perfectly matched their brother's. Between looks and voice, even the real deal before them wouldn't be distinguishable from this imitation."Well, can I pass?""More than pass!

Though Justin had his share of women, they were innocent girls, no match for the mature allure of this femme fatale. If not for knowing she spelled trouble, he would have made her part of his harem.

She had come to this city to search for him. But despite her efforts, there had been no trace. Finding someone who bore such an uncanny resemblance sparked new hope within her. "Go check his background thoroughly. Find out his connection to my brother. The drink is his tonight." At Rose's order, a man behind her swiftly departed. Rose then headed up to the stage and cut the deafening music. Justin's dancing slowed to a stop as all eyes turned to the elegant woman, curious what exquisite concoction she would produce tonight.Rose surveyed the array of bottles before her. She selected a bottle of Spirytus Rektyfikowany - pure grain alcohol known as "life water", the strongest vodka in the world. This she mixed with some fruit juices in casual pours before picking up the glass and descending fr

He just wanted the horse to finish the rest quickly, no more mishaps. Otherwise today would be terribly embarrassing. "Hey, this won't do! I've caught up to you, will overtake you soon!
