Lin Jiang, who was pulling an all-nighter watching Douluo Continent, stared at the "righteous and noble" face of Tang San on the screen—a face that always managed to take full advantage of every critical moment—when his vision suddenly went black!

A wave of dizzying nausea and suffocation instantly engulfed him, as if he had been dragged into a bottomless vortex.

When he opened his eyes again, he was in another world!

A crude wooden hut, the sunlight blinding.

Did I transmigrate? Could this be the Douluo Continent?!

Wild joy instantly washed away the nausea.

Lin Jiang pinched his thigh hard—hiss... it hurt! It was real!

[Ding! Detected host obsession... to become the System Wholesaler! Binding 'System Wholesaler' talent!]

A cold, mechanical voice exploded in his mind.

Information flooded in: Lin Jiang could generate sub-systems and "gift" them to others to bind.

He possessed absolute control—issuing tasks, setting rewards, and harvesting the results!

Every time a bound user completed a task, he would lie back and collect a "feedback reward."

He could issue a new system every 30 days.

A golden finger manufacturer? A mastermind behind the scenes? The ultimate landlord!

Lin Jiang slapped his thigh in ecstasy.

This was a divine artifact tailor-made for him!

[Please select the first candidate for binding.]

"Candidate?" A mischievous arc curled the corners of Lin Jiang's mouth. "Tang San! It's you!"

Thinking of the smooth sailing Tang San enjoyed in the original work, and then thinking of his own miserable life, Lin Jiang's twisted sense of pleasure grew wildly:

"I must toy with this Child of Destiny! Let him taste what it's like to be a tool!"

"System, bind Tang San!" he commanded.

[Ding! Sub-system 'Godhood System' bound to target: Tang San! Master control transfer complete!]

Lin Jiang lay back on the hard wooden bed, crossed his legs, and began to conceive the "grand opening" task for "Tool Number One."

On the official road outside Suotuo City, Tang San and Xiao Wu walked side by side.

[Ding! Detected compatible soul... Godhood System binding successful!] The cold, mechanical voice exploded in Tang San's mind without warning!

"Who?!" Tang San's hair stood on end, his killing intent erupting!

A Bone-Piercing Nail slid between his fingers.

He had lived two lives, yet someone had silently invaded his mind?

This was a path to death! His gaze swept around like lightning, but there was no one there.

[Novice Task: Pull up any roadside weed, crush it, and consume it.]

[Reward: 1 Gold Soul Coin.]

[Time limit: 24 hours.]

[No penalty for failure.]

A phantom panel appeared before his eyes.

Pull grass... eat grass... obtain a Gold Soul Coin?

Tang San was filled with shock and uncertainty.

Temptation and absurdity intertwined.

As a Tang Sect disciple, he knew well that opportunities were accompanied by risks.

I'll try it and see! Curiosity and the desire to become stronger overcame his vigilance.

He squatted down, carefully selected a "clean" Plantain, crushed it with his Mysterious Jade Hands, and shoved it into his mouth as if he were resigned to his fate!

Bitterness spread, and he forced it down his throat.

[Ding! Task complete! 1 Gold Soul Coin has been deposited into the system inventory.]

"Retrieve!"

With a thought, golden light flickered, and a heavy Gold Soul Coin landed in his palm!

"It's real!"

Tang San laughed in wild joy!

Could this be the benefit of being a transmigrator!?

The path to godhood lay right beneath his feet! Eating grass in exchange for gold coins? Worth it!

As long as he could grow stronger, he would accept even the most bizarre tasks!

After the initial ecstasy came extreme vigilance: Such an opportunity must never be revealed to others! After all, an innocent man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime!

Xiao Wu, who had witnessed the entire process from the side, had her cherry-red mouth wide open in shock:

"Xiao San... why are you eating grass? Did you break your brain?!" Her eyes were filled with confusion.

Tang San awkwardly shook the gold coin: "Uh... I was just a little hungry... and I happened to find a Gold Soul Coin!"

He walked forward quickly, his heart crying out: I have to come up with a good excuse to deal with these strange tasks in the future!

Inside a crude wooden hut.

[Ding! Tang San has completed the novice task! Feedback reward settlement: 100 Gold Soul Coins!]

The notification sound made Lin Jiang bolt upright!

He sank his consciousness into the exclusive system space, where one hundred glittering Gold Soul Coins were suspended in the air!

"One hundred gold! Passive income!" Lin Jiang was delirious with joy.

Tang San earned 1 gold by eating grass, and he, behind the scenes, netted a 99-gold profit! How satisfying!

The system panel appeared: Tang San's basic information (name, age, soul power level) and a real-time tracking dot (moving outside Suotuo City) were clearly visible.

"It's a pity I can't watch a live stream; I missed the expression on Tang San's face while he was eating grass..." Lin Jiang felt a slight sense of regret.

He had tried to exploit a bug by setting a high reward, but the system had ruthlessly rejected it with a red warning: [Novice task reward limit is 1 gold!]

"Oh well, strict rules make it feel more real, which makes it easier to fish."

Lin Jiang stroked his chin, a sharp glint flickering in his eyes.

"Give him a little sweetness first, let Tang San get a taste of relying on the 'system'... once he's addicted, he'll become my 'system slave,' doing whatever I point him toward!"

Position and timeline confirmed: Tang San and Xiao Wu were heading to Shrek Academy!

At the same time, the original owner's memories merged:

Lin Jiang, 14 years old, a villager of Rice Fragrance Village where Shrek Academy was located.

Martial soul: Azure Vine (top-tier control-type plant martial soul).

Innate soul power level 5, currently a level 22 Great Soul Master.

This talent would be considered genius in an ordinary academy, yet he had been turned away by Shrek.

"14 years old, level 22, Azure Vine... that's considered top-tier among ordinary people."

Lin Jiang evaluated himself objectively, but compared to the upcoming Shrek cheat-group...

"So what?"

A playful and confident smile curled the corners of his mouth.

"They are cheaters? I am the one who wholesales the cheats! Holding the key to issuing external hacks, the Shrek Seven Monsters? They are nothing more than high-quality leeks in my garden!"

Looking at the one hundred Gold Soul Coins in the space, Lin Jiang felt incredibly comfortable:

"The first pot of gold is in hand! Today's goal achieved, lying down and earning one hundred gold, how delightful! The days of manipulating the cheaters have begun!"

Lin Jiang lay on the hard wooden bed, a calculating smile playing on his lips:

"I can only fleece Tang San once a day... I'll recharge my energy and arrange a 'good' task for him tomorrow!"

Under the calm night sky of Suotuo City, a grand drama of "fleecing" the Son of Destiny quietly unfolded.

The next day, Rose Hotel.

In front of this ambiguous rose-red building, Lin Jiang had long been lying in ambush in a corner, ordering the cheapest drink while waiting for his prey—Tang San and Xiao Wu.

Just past noon, the targets appeared! The two of them, dusty from their travels, stepped into the lobby and headed straight for the reception desk.

The hotel door was slammed open!

Dai Mubai, with his golden hair and evil eyes, entered with a hot pair of twins in his arms, making a flashy entrance!

He ignored Tang San and Xiao Wu, slamming a gold card onto the counter: "New here? Don't you know you're supposed to leave a room for me?"

Tang San frowned and stepped forward: "We were here first."

Dai Mubai didn't even turn his head, his voice cold: "So what?" The atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing!

In the corner, a cold light flashed in Lin Jiang's eyes! His consciousness moved rapidly:

[Instruction: Issue an immediate task to Tang San!]

[Task content: Say to the blond man: "Let me play with your two girls, and I'll give the room to you!"]

[Reward: Soul Ascension Pill *1 (Increases soul power level without side effects!)]

[Failure penalty: Soul power permanently reduced by 1 level!]

[Time limit: 5 minutes!]

The cold notification sound exploded in Tang San's mind like a thunderclap!

A Soul Ascension Pill?! Directly increasing soul power? A heaven-defying divine item!

Greed instantly devoured his reason! It was just a sentence, what did face matter?

The failure penalty was even more lethal! The time limit was tight, leaving no room for hesitation!
