Advanced piano playing
On the streets of Da Qianmen, Zhang Zheng and the young woman were engaged in a verbal battle. They fought for every inch of hair and did not give in to each other.
"One hair!"
"Eight Hairy!"
"Er Mao!"
"Six Hairy!"
"San Mao!"
"Four Hairy!"
"Deal!"
Hearing the woman's bid of 40 cents, Zhang Zheng made the final decision.
The woman seemed to have choked. She opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.
Zhang Zheng quickly reached out his hand and said,
"This is the price you called out. You get the money and you get the goods. No one can go back on their word!”
The woman rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily,
"Who said that you're going back on your word? Take the money. That thing is yours.”
Zhang Zheng was overjoyed when he heard that. He couldn't wait to take out the money from his pocket and count out 40 cents for her.
After the woman took the money, her face was filled with joy. 40 cents was half a day's wages.
Fortunately, she didn't forget about her business. After she collected the money, she walked to the child's side and took back the cigarette stick. She handed it to Zhang Zheng.
At this moment, the child also walked over. He walked to Zhang Zheng's leg with his short legs and tugged at his pants.
"Uncle, where's the candy? Didn't you say you'd give me candy?”
Zhang Zheng was in a good mood after obtaining the antique. Seeing the little wimp's unyielding look, he waved his hand and said,
"Don't worry, I'll buy it for you now.”
With that, he took the pipe and hummed a tune as he strolled towards the small shop not far away.
On the way to the convenience store, Zhang Zheng said to the system in his mind,
"System, I've successfully collected this item, right? Where's the reward?”
Before he could finish his sentence, the system's cold mechanical voice sounded in his mind.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully collecting one of Erjin's Copper Smoke Rod. You may choose one of the following random rewards.
1. Elementary oral English;
2. Intermediate swimming skill;
3. Advanced piano performance!"
"System, how are the rewards for this skill divided into levels?”
After hearing the system's reward, Zhang Zheng could not help but ask in confusion.
"The system's skill rewards are divided into beginner, intermediate, advanced, master, and grandmaster levels from low to high. The higher the value of the antiques collected, the higher the value of the reward received by the host!”
So that was the case. Zhang Zheng couldn't help but nod his head. Judging from the reward, the collection value of the Erjin Smoke Rod he had obtained wasn't very high.
However, Zhang Zheng was not depressed. In this era, antiques were everywhere. Sooner or later, he would have the opportunity to collect better treasures.
"System, I choose the third reward, advanced piano performance!”
After figuring out the skill level, Zhang Zheng pondered for a moment and said to the system in his mind.
Among the three rewards, he did not need to swim. He knew how to swim. As a university student in his previous life, although he was not very proficient in English, he had passed the CET-4.
Therefore, Zhang Zheng felt that Elementary Spoken English would not be of much help to him. After thinking about it, he decided to choose the third reward.
Other than the fact that this reward was of the highest level, Zhang Zheng felt that he might use it for tonight's gathering of educated youths.
After all, it was a gathering. It was inevitable that when the atmosphere became lively, others would come on stage to perform.
Just as he finished choosing, the system's cold voice sounded in his mind.
"Ding! The host has chosen reward 3. The reward will now be distributed!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a warm current slowly flowed through Zhang Zheng's mind. Zhang Zheng felt that he had instantly mastered all kinds of skills related to piano performance.
He did not know if it was his illusion, but at this moment, he felt that his fingers seemed to have become more flexible.
Zhang Zheng could not help but marvel at the power of the system as he felt the sudden influx of piano performance knowledge in his mind.
However, he didn't have a specific measurement standard now, so he didn't know what level his piano skills had reached.
However, he estimated that it shouldn't be too bad. After all, it was a reward from the system. It should be more than enough to deal with tonight's scene. After all, in this era, ordinary people didn't even have a piano, let alone play it.
At the same time that Zhang Zheng received the system reward, he slowly walked to the small shop.
He snapped back to his senses and bought two candies, some fruits, and tonics without delay. After paying the bill, he walked back to the little wimp.
"Here, the candy I promised you!"
Zhang Zheng walked up to the child and handed him candy while smiling.
When the little wimp saw the candy, he hurriedly took it. Then, he impatiently tore off the candy wrapper and directly swallowed it.
"Eat slowly. No one is snatching it from you."
Zhang Zheng laughed and teased the child. Nowadays, people's families were generally not well-off. Although candy was not a luxury, it was still very difficult for children to eat it.
Zhang Zheng wasn't surprised by his impatient behavior. He just thought it was a little fun. Unfortunately, the child turned a deaf ear to his words and only cared about eating candy.
Zhang Zheng shook his head helplessly. He didn't stay there for long. He held the cigarette stick he had just bought in his left hand and the fruits and tonics in his right hand as he slowly walked towards Han Chunming's house.
