Chapter 37: New Knowledge
It was late at night, and there were many fewer people coming in and out of the neighborhood at this time.
Hu Lixin sat behind the desk outside the security room, facing the road outside the gate of the community.
The road was full of parked cars, and only occasionally one or two night runners ran past the group of cars, rustling in their footsteps.
Behind him, the lights in the neighborhood were half extinguished.
The children who ran crazy in the community were called home by their parents and the elderly, and the cries of unknown insects became the main theme in the community at this time.
Hu Lixin has entered the night shift, and he will stay here all night, keeping an eye on the situation near the gate. If there are food delivery people, register them and ask for the building number they are going to before they can enter the community.
Also check those vehicles that are not in the access control system with the license plate number, and also do a good job of registering, reminding the other party that they can only stay for a short time before using the remote control to lift the railing of the garage entrance.
In addition, it is necessary to cooperate with the patrolling security team.
It's really boring, you can talk to those car-bearers on the side of the road outside to relieve their fatigue, and they also have to stay up all night.
If there were no surprises in the night, it would have passed in the midst of these trivial things.
Now this season, the wind outside is neither cold nor hot, and it is the best time of the year, and this all-night can be slightly better.
But if it rains, it's not so wonderful.
It was too hot and there were a lot of mosquitoes.
And the weather is too cold, no matter how thick the clothes and shoes are, even if there is a "little sun" placed at the feet to keep warm, it can only make a quarter of the body feel warm. The place where the "little sun" can't radiate is still cold, and the real "ice and fire are two heavens".
This kind of work is not easy, but for the sake of his family, Hu Lixin is willing to bear such an uneasy job.
He even felt that he, a person with no skills, could find such a well-paid job at this age, and he was already very happy.
If you have any ideas, it is that you don't want your children to follow their own old paths, they don't study well, their education is not high, and it is difficult to find a job in the future. Although the salary of this security guard is okay, he doesn't want his son to come out and work as a security guard in the future.
This requires him to study hard now, otherwise he borrowed so much money to send him to Dongchuan Middle School, isn't it a toss?
It's just that...... Thinking of the results of the thorough examination when he first entered the school, Hu Lixin was a little irritable.
He didn't believe that his son was a fool, and it must have been because he didn't study hard and didn't study hard that he finally got that kind of grade.
I just came to a new and unfamiliar environment, and it is normal to be a little uncomfortable. Wait, until he gets used to the environment......
Thinking of this, Hu Lixin glanced back at the lights of thousands of homes behind him.
To be honest, this community is very good in terms of environment and property management, and Hu Lixin himself wants to be the owner of this community.
But it was clear that the high prices here were unaffordable for him.
But he hopes that one day his son can afford a house like this so that his wife and children can have a better life.

Hulay had washed himself and lay down in bed, the lights in his bedroom had been turned off, and now it was dark except for the moonlight from the window.
He didn't draw the lottery when he did his homework in the evening, but waited patiently for this time.
For this moment, he took a special bath before going to bed.
He knew that before the ancients did something very important and sacred, they would burn incense, bathe and change clothes.
He has no conditions for burning incense now, but he can still do it for bathing and changing clothes.
In order to be able to bring some good fortune to what he was going to do next, he took a very ritualistic bath with a reverent heart.
Even the shower gel he used twice as much as usual.
Now, Hu Lai, who was covered in incense, knelt on the bed, folded his hands, and bowed to the west: "The Jade Emperor, the Queen Mother, the Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva...... All the gods who have passed by, do well, bless me with what I want! ”
After completing this set of rituals, he closed his eyes and entered the system.
In the system mall, Hulai is ready to exchange all the points in his hand for lottery tickets.
But he was stunned for a moment - something had changed in the mall that he was familiar with.
The shelves were still empty, but they were slightly better than before, because there was another product next to the only item of the lottery ticket: a small green glass tube lying quietly on the shelf.
When Hu Lai swept his gaze, he found that it was actually ...... [Stamina Elixir].
Yes, it was the tube of [Stamina Elixir] that he used up this morning.
I didn't expect it to appear in the mall, and the price below is the same as the lottery ticket: 1000.
It costs 500 points to purchase a raffle ticket, and 1,000 points to purchase a [Stamina Potion].
Considering that the [Stamina Elixir] could only be obtained by lottery before, and it took five hundred points to draw a lottery, I don't know how many times I can draw a bottle of [Stamina Elixir], this [Stamina Elixir] doesn't seem too expensive to sell for a thousand points, it is only equivalent to two lottery tickets, which is equivalent to a bottle of [Stamina Elixir] when drawn twice.
You can even buy things other than lottery tickets in this mall......
I'll just say, the official mall plugged in by the dignified system can't be so shabby!
Hulai was happy to discover the new features in the mall, but he didn't pay attention to it, he knew what he was entering the system for.
After exchanging all the points in hand into four lottery tickets in the system mall, Hu Lai entered the lottery interface, and the big turntable with flashing marquees appeared in front of him.
There is still no bunny girl.
The interface is shabby and poignant.
With a pious heart, he used up his first raffle ticket.
Then he got a bottle ...... [Stamina Elixir].
Hu Lai in the system looked at the small bottle of [Stamina Elixir] floating in front of him, and was a little speechless.
Okay, it's better than just saying "thank you for participating".
Hulai comforted himself.
Then another raffle ticket was used.
All kinds of big and huge giants bless you......
※※※
Ten minutes later, Hu Lai looked at the four bottles of [Stamina Elixir] floating in the system space in front of him in a daze.
In fact, he had been stunned for almost three minutes.
The remaining 2,000 points he had were exchanged for four lottery tickets, for which he also specially bathed and changed his clothes to make himself fragrant.
As a result, his four lottery tickets were exchanged for these four things?!
Hulai, who had been in a daze for a long time, finally made a move, and he slammed the pillow away. Then, as if he hadn't relieved his breath, he lifted the quilt aside and pounded the bed board hard, making a thumping sound.
What the hell are the four bottles of [Stamina Elixir]!
I knew this thing seemed to have a high drop rate, but I didn't expect it to be so high! Is this thing so easy to pull out?!
And this thing sells 1,000 bottles in the official mall, so I even thought it was cheaper at the time. Four lottery tickets draw out four bottles, and this thing is worth 500 points a bottle?
Profiteer!
In the morning, I wasted a bottle of [Stamina Elixir], and in the evening you pulled out four bottles of [Stamina Elixir] for me! Is this how you make up for me?
That's really thank you for the eighteenth generation of your ancestors!
But I want a [Smart Potion]! It's a [Smart Potion] that can increase the effectiveness of my training!
Hulai roared at the system in his heart.
The system, as always, does not react at all, like a mute, or deaf.
But looking at the four identical potions in front of him, and thinking about the price of this thing in the official store, Hu Lai could sense some kind of malice from the system......
It's the same as the first time he saw it, and he could draw "thank you for participating".
Aren't the systems of those protagonists all scrambling to serve their masters comfortably? How can it be changed to yourself, this system will give you a backstab or something from time to time?
Is this system here to help me reach the pinnacle of my life, or is it here to see me go out of trouble?
Hulay was so angry that the board of the bed he struck made a continuous muffled sound, as if he were beating a drum.
Until his mother's high-pitched voice sounded outside the door: "I can't sleep yet!! ”
Hu Lai then pulled up the quilt and wrapped himself in it, and lay back on the bed, as quiet as a chicken.
Tonight, he learned a new knowledge - the [Stamina Potion] that is not currently useful for eggs is easy to extract, and the powerful [Smart Potion] is probably very difficult to extract......
This is really expensive knowledge, it cost him 2,000 points, and twice as much shower gel and shampoo as he usually baths.
