Kaiden didn't care about the others, he just focused on himself. He knew the others were laughing at him, including someone he was familiar with.

He was Fabiano, the son of the owner of the resort near the beach, and Kaiden's previous classmate.

Bian, as he was usually called, was the class president who was known to be very kind and considerate to all students. However, not many people knew that Bian was actually still part of the school thugs who liked to bully other students.

Bian does maintain his image, lest his parents know that he likes to bully other students, likes to smoke, skip school, and other juvenile delinquencies.

He did look very handsome and like a good guy, but the truth was the opposite.

Kaiden clearly didn't like Bian, as he often bullied Kaiden at school. Then Bian and his friends threatened Kaiden not to tell anyone after being bullied. Kaiden had a lot of trouble because of them.

Once he almost broke his leg because he was beaten by them, but fortunately Kaiden got treatment on time.

Kaiden also had to be punished by the teacher because his assignment book was hidden by Bian and his friends.

Surprisingly, many girls liked them, saying they were very handsome and cool.

Well, Kaiden felt he was far from handsome and cool when compared to Bian.

Kaiden glanced back at Bian who was laughing at Kaiden with his friend whom Kaiden didn't recognize.

Then the shop owner came over and explained. He said the competition would use social media. So they would be photographed wearing clothes from the shop being promoted, then, the photo that had the best response would be chosen.

The winner would be the store's model for a year and would get paid well, and would also get some clothes as gifts.

Kaiden didn't really listen because he was so nervous.

Afterward they were given one outfit to take pictures in, the photographer was also ready with his camera.

Whether it was just Kaiden's feelings or what, he got the worst outfit that the others didn't like. But since there was no other choice, Kaiden just wore what was available.

"After taking pictures, you can come back tomorrow to find out the winner." said the shop owner.

Kaiden thought everyone would wait until tomorrow, but it turned out that the photographer chose who he could photograph and post on social media. Some people just lost and had to return the shop clothes they were wearing. They also swore rudely, making Kaiden shudder.

When it was Kaiden's turn, Bian, who had qualified early and was just waiting for the announcement tomorrow, came up to Kaiden and tapped him on the shoulder, saying.

"You can't possibly pass the photographer's criteria, so if you're told to go home, don't cry, okay?" Bian said, then laughed loudly and walked out of the room.

Kaiden was the last one, and the photographer's tired face made Kaiden's courage shrink.

Kaiden slowly approached the photographer, then he paused in front of the man and smiled awkwardly.

"Will I be told to go home? I entered this competition just so I could qualify, then I could buy clothes at a discount, but if I don't qualify-"

"Here he is! Look at this young man!"

Kaiden was startled by the photographer's shout, he didn't expect the photographer's face to brighten instantly upon seeing Kaiden.

"That's right, I've seen this young man from the start, he's exactly my type," said the shop owner.

"Please stand there and pose," said the photographer, already ready with his camera.

"Does this mean I'm off the hook and can buy clothes at a discount?" Kaiden asked.

"No, you can choose a few pieces of clothing and take them with you for free, just don't forget to come back tomorrow," said the shop owner.

Kaiden was happy to hear that, it meant he had passed, right? He would also get free clothes, even though he hadn't won.

After doing a few poses at the photographer's direction, Kaiden was accompanied by the shop owner to get his free clothes.

The store employee who had previously looked down on Kaiden could only gawk in disbelief, he also couldn't believe Kaiden could turn so handsome just for a change of better clothes.

Although at first glance the clothes were ordinary, but after Kaiden wore them, they became very good-looking. Some customers who saw Kaiden immediately asked the shop staff to get similar clothes.

Thanks to Kaiden, several pieces of clothing that were previously unsold are now almost sold out.

Of course the shop owner was very happy, he felt he had found a diamond from a mud puddle.

[Being a good influence is a good first step to becoming a tycoon]

[You managed to get clothes for free]

[The reward was successfully obtained and doubled to 4000$]

Of course, Kaiden was shocked to see that his reward had been doubled just because the shop owner was kind to him. But, Kaiden still didn't understand what it meant to be a good influence. Until he saw some young men buying clothes similar to the ones he had chosen and told their friends that Kaiden had good taste.

Kaiden had only chosen what he thought was good to wear.

"I'm really looking forward to tomorrow, Kai, come early!" The shop owner said after Kaiden left the large store.

Kaiden hadn't expected the owner of such a large fashion store to be waiting for him.

Kaiden immediately looked for a hiding place to store all his clothes in the storage system for safety, and he also checked the money he'd gotten.

"This much already, amazing," Kaiden muttered.

[A tycoon must have technology that helps him do business]

[Buy the best smartphone and get twice the cashback]

"So if I spend 1000$ on a new smartphone, I'll get 2000$?" muttered Kaiden.

[That's right!]

Knowing that, Kaiden excitedly went looking for a store that sold the latest and most advanced smartphones.

There was a big store not far away, selling the latest and greatest gadgets.

One of the store clerks was Kaiden's old schoolmate, and she smiled at first to greet Kaiden who looked cool in his new clothes. But that friendly smile turned into a sneer when she found out it was Kaiden.

"I thought a customer with a lot of money was coming, but it turned out to be a hobo, I heard you were beaten up because of your family debt huh? Haha, it's surprising to know you're still okay," said the girl, Citra.

Kaiden just smiled bitterly at that, because the girl wasn't wrong either. He himself was surprised to be alive, even helped by a system that came out of nowhere.

"I want to buy a smartphone," Kaiden said to the point.

Citra clucked lazily, then showed him some used smartphones.

"These are the cheapest and best, they range from 200$ to 500$, for you, this one might be more suitable, it came out a few years ago but it's still good, it just has a little problem with the screen, it's only 150$, here!" The ignorant girl handed over the worst and most used smartphone. Although the smartphone was in pretty good condition, it was clear Kaiden had to buy the latest and greatest smartphone.

"No, I'm going to buy the newest and best-" Kaiden's speech was cut short when he heard Citra laughing at him.

"You? Want to buy the newest one? How could you possibly have 1500$? Even if you did, you'd have stolen it from somewhere!"

Citra's words really hurt Kaiden's heart.

"Hey, what's going on? Is he your friend?" Another employee came in, she was also a girl and looked more friendly.

Citra rolled her eyes in disgust, "of course not, you can serve him, be careful not to let him steal." Citra said curtly, before leaving to greet another customer.

The wavy blonde girl who had just arrived smiled sweetly at Kaiden.

"Hi! Can I help you? Are you looking for the latest smartphone?" The girl said.

Kaiden also smiled and nodded, "right, give me the newest and best one, no matter the price."

"Alright, how much budget do you have?"

Kaiden shook his head, "no matter the price, I'll buy it in cash."

The blonde girl smiled broadly, then took out the latest smartphone that people were talking about.

    Kaiden was very happy when a new smartphone was brought out by the pretty employee, it was black in color. The blonde employee explained about the smartphone to Kaiden patiently, Kaiden himself asking a lot of questions because this was the first time he had seen such an expensive smartphone."It's useless for you to explain in such detail, because he won't be able to pay for everything," said Citra, the bitchy employee who used to be Kaiden's classmate. Citra had just served a customer who was well-dressed and looked rich, but didn't end up buying a smartphone."Even if he doesn't buy, we should still serve him well, that's what the shop owner said," said the blonde-haired girl."I warned you, he's a hobo, he has no money, he can't afford such an expensive smartphone." After saying that, Citra left again.The blonde employee turned back to Kaiden, "Do you want to buy or not? If you do want to buy, I can insert the SIM card as well."Kaiden nodded, "I'll buy it, here's the money, plea

    Although the thugs who collected Kaiden's debt went home peacefully, they came with a ruckus.Thanks to them, Kaiden's house was a mess. There was even a hole in the roof, maybe they had thrown a rock or something.To be sure, Kaiden cleaned up the house immediately after they left.He knew that his house was very small and barely habitable. But it was his father's only inheritance, and the house and land had belonged to Kaiden since his father died.Kaiden also didn't understand why his father had given the house and land to Kaiden and not his mother.Because of this, his mother couldn't sell the land, as it had to be approved by Kaiden and Kaiden was adamant about not wanting to sell the house. They were so poor, if the house was sold, where would they live afterwards. That's what Kaiden thought. He didn't know that his decision would lead his mother to get into a lot of debt, then commit suicide and put it all on Kaiden.Kaiden just couldn't understand why his mother was like that.

Kaiden was stunned to see the blonde haired girl. But after realizing, he immediately smiled at Jenni."Hello Kaiden, how is your merchandise today? How much have you sold?" Jenni asked to the point, making Kaiden feel annoyed again, but he just smiled as if everything was fine."Only sold one, maybe I'm just unlucky today, would you like to try the coconut ice?" asked Kaiden, thankful for the positive smile.Jenni smiled at Kaiden, who was still in good spirits, not depressed at all despite the lack of sales.Then Jenni nodded, "sure, I'd like one."While Kaiden prepared the coconut ice, Jenni took

The big master who reduced Kaiden's mother said he didn't work with the thugs anymore, because the police had warned him.The master was a good man, but the thugs used his power to blackmail the debtors. The lord had lost money because he had paid them, but the money that the debtors had deposited was partly taken by the thugs."You can open an account, Kaiden, these days it's very sophisticated, I see you already have a smartphone, open an account, so you can manage your debts through your smartphone, you don't have to come to me in person." said the lord, then he took a drag on his cigarette, then exhaled the smoke slowly, making Kaiden feel claustrophobic."Alright, I'll

    Kaiden, who was seeing for the first time how luxurious the apartment that was already his, couldn't help but be amazed. It was a fully furnished apartment, so there was already furniture in it.But since he was embarrassed to act like a fool in front of two beautiful women, he tried to act like he was used to luxury apartments. Although he wanted to scream and jump up and down in excitement."Do you guys want home-cooked or just order in? I mean - I know my cooking won't be to your taste," Kaiden said awkwardly. He'd planned to cook, had even bought the ingredients before going to the apartment with Jenni.But with Laura around, he felt bad if she had to eat the village food he'd cooked.Kaiden wasn't much of a cook, he could only cook what he could."I'm fine, as long as you cook vegetables or something healthy, because I'm on a diet," Laura said.Although it wasn't Jenni who said it, she was embarrassed by Laura's lack of modesty.Actually, Jenni didn't like the idea of her time wi

This is me, I'm being paid to do this job, it says I have to come three times a week."Jenni cupped both of Kaiden's cheeks, so that Kaiden's lips looked like the lips of a fish."Are you serious? Oh my! No wonder you have such a luxurious apartment, thank God you didn't rob a bank."Jenni's words annoyed Kaiden, and he removed her hand from his cheek. "Do I look like a robber?"Jenni chuckled, "After all, I did some investigation on you earlier and you are indeed a

Jake said."It's only for three days..." said Chris, who had actually forgotten about his behavior a few years ago. "Besides, the hotel has very good security, so it's worth the money. But to rent such an expensive hotel for one week is too much. Wouldn't it be better to rent an apartment or a mansion instead?" he added.Kaiden let out a long sigh, "Never mind, I chose this hotel obviously because it's close to Central Park. It would be fun to walk there in the morning." Kaiden said."Do you want to go for a walk this winter?" Asked Zack, who had been silent the whole time.Kaiden nodded, "Of course!

    "Which hotel did you book a room at?" Chris asked once again.Even though it was obvious, someone had come to pick them up at the airport wearing the logo of a fairly famous hotel.Or maybe very famous, Kaiden didn't know.He had just on a whim booked a room at The Marko hotel which had a penthouse room.The price for one night was 75,000$ and Kaiden rented it for a week.The Marko Hotel has a luxury penthouse of 10,000 square feet or about 929 square meters.The hotel has a strict vetting process, and only a few people have ever stayed in the penthouse room due to its high price tag (which The Marko claims is the most expensive in the US; regular suites start at US$1,895 per night).However, the room was once rented for 24 months by a family! Kaiden believes they were a very wealthy family. With that two-year rent, they could have bought a nice mansion."Excuse me, are you Kaiden Grayson?" a young man in a classic black suit approached Kaiden's group."Right, that's me." Kaiden repli

    Kaiden just realized that the system has a kind of online shop in it, a system shop.It was said that in games there was also something like that, a system similar to a game.Only, everything sold was unusual things.Including coats for winter.Indeed, the shape is the same as the one in that world. But the function is very unexpected.The coats for sale had various designs and came from various animal furs that Kaiden had never even heard of.For example, the super cool ivory-white coat with black fine lines, according to the system's description, came from the fur of a wolf tiger.It was a powerful monster of level B.Kaiden didn't understand, but the fur was very fine, and it could warm the body according to the body's own resistance and the weather.The coat could also resist external attacks such as knives, bullets and others."Is it okay to use animal fur? If it were in this world, it would be considered a crime." Kaiden muttered.He was in his room alone, he had locked the door
