Beijing, in a simple rental house.
A handsome young man, with a face that is one tenth as good looking as you dear reader, is staring at his mobile phone whilst frowning slightly.
'Man, it's been half a month and this is still a single-digit live broadcast room!'
'If it continues in this manner, when will I ever be able to make a difference?'
Han Haocheng looked at the poor number of viewers in his live broadcast room and felt distraught.
It seems like an easy thing to do when other people broadcast live, but why is it so difficult when it comes to yourself?
Sure enough, what our ancestors said is right. It is easier to look at flowers than to embroider them.
Han Haocheng was originally just an ordinary Beijing drifter and an honest office worker.
Due to the recent downward trend of economy, the company where he worked had a large number of layoffs. Unsurprisingly, Han Haocheng was one of those victims who lost their jobs.
Han Haocheng, who couldn't find any job for a while, thought of trying live broadcasting on a whim.
After all, short videos are very popular these days. If he could really become a well known anchor, he would be living a life free of financial troubles.
Thinking so, Han Haocheng immediately tried his hand at it. The result was that after half a month of broadcasting, he didn't get many gifts, but it wasted a lot of his time.
"I'm going off air now. See you again, if we have the chance."
After saying this, there were no responses from the six viewers in the live broadcast room.
Han Haocheng directly closed the live broadcast room.
'It seems that just doing live broadcasting is not enough.'
'The focus should still be on finding a job.'
Han Haocheng opened boos direct recruitment and browsed for a while.
Only to reaffirm that in the current economic conditions, finding a suitable job is as difficult as finding a wife.
What you like may not necessarily like you, and what looks suitable may not necessarily be what you want.
"Hey, it would be great if I could have a system like the protagonist of a webnovel."
This thought flashed in Han Haocheng's mind, but soon he shook his head vigorously, trying to shake this impossible thought away.
[Ding! A host that meets the requirements is detected, and the 'Live Life to it's fullest while still alive' system is successfully bound! ]
He didn't know if it was due to excessive imagination, but a strange sound came out of his head.
Immediately afterwards, a lot of introductory information sounded in his mind.
At the same time, a virtual screen appeared in front of Han Haocheng's eyes.
As the sound sounded, text appeared on the screen:
[If you are alive, you must do system tasks. As long as you complete the system tasks, you can get system rewards]
[Would you like to start today's life task immediately? ]
Han Haocheng swallowed hard and was stunned for a long time.
Only then did he come back to his senses.
The legendary system came to reality directly and selected Han Haocheng.
This made Han Haocheng feel like he was forcefully kissed by Lady Luck.
'Does he want to start the task?'
'Is there even a need to ask?'
The smile at the corner of Han Haocheng's mouth grew thicker and thicker, and finally he said two words:
"Start! Immediately!"
'What tasks will there be?'
'One hundred million for every second I breathe?'
'Or can I get returns of x 100,000 times for money I spend?'
Han Haocheng's thoughts went wild with the arrival of such an unexpected and exciting System.
With his anticipation for a wonderful future at max, the system's voice rang again:
[Today's task: Knock on any house's door and sell coffins seriously! ]
[Task reward: 100,000 yuan]
[Note: The mission must be broadcasted live in its entirety. There mustn't be any fraud. Otherwise, the mission will be judged to have failed! ]
After seeing the task content..
Han Haocheng's originally smiling expression froze and collapsed in an instant!
His mind went blank.. At this moment, Han Haocheng was more stunned than when he got the system!
'Selling coffins door-to-door?'
'Damn!'
'Door-to-door sales are annoying enough..'
'Still selling coffins???' o.O
'Isn't this... looking for trouble?'
'No, this is not at the level of looking for trouble..'
'This is courting death!'
'Is this really something that a sane human would do?'
'No wonder the system has "Living life to it's fullest" in it's name. Does this system takes him to be like one of those crazy thrill seeking 2nd generation young masters?'
'So, one doesn't live to the fullest if one doesn't go seeking death everyday?'
'No matter how bad my conditions are, I will never do this kind of work that is asking for a beating!'
'Unless...'
Han Haocheng continued to look down and saw the mission reward.
To be honest, this reward is very low-level, very tacky, and not high-end... It is only cash, not noble at all..
But Han Haocheng likes it very much!
'One hundred thousand yuan, it doesn't seem unacceptable to take this risk, right?'
After all, he couldn't save 100,000 even if he worked for an entire year. Here however, as long as he completed this task, the system would give him money enough for one year.
'Alright, Let's do this!!'
Without thinking any further, Han Haocheng immediately changed the title of his live broadcast room to:
[Knock on the door of any house as a door-to-door seller. When the other person opens the door, ask him/her if he wants to buy a coffin! ]
After changing the title, Han Hao went out. Searching for a suitable house.. To be honest, he may have succumbed to the temptation of money, but still, this task is much more difficult than it sounds.
Han Haocheng walked for a while, but still didn't have the courage to knock on any house's door.
At this moment, Han Haocheng had many confusing questions in his mind.
'When the door opens, how do I speak? How do I present myself?'
'Does he smile gently and say politely: Hello, does your family need a coffin?'
'Or, should he be more serious and pretend to be very sincere when introducing his background as a door-to-door seller and finally ask: Hello, does your family need a good quality coffin?'
'Damn...'
'No matter how I say it, it would be embarrassing.'
No matter how nicely he tries to put it, whoever hears it will definitely not feel good about it.
'I can only bite the bullet on this matter..'
Fortunately, there weren't many people in the live broadcast room, so he wouldn't be facing a large-scale social death.
Just as he was thinking about it, the system's voice rang:
[For the first mission, in order to help the host rise in popularity quickly, this live broadcast will be arranged with appropriate promotion!]
Upon receiving this reminder, Han Haocheng suddenly felt cold. Before he could react, immediately, viewers began to pour into the live broadcast room.
The traffic from this push was not very large, yet the live broadcast room quickly attracted hundreds of people.
There is no doubt that the new viewers became excited when they saw the title of the live broadcast, and barrages went up:
"Damn it, are you going to sell coffins door-to-door via live broadcast?"
"Holy beep Cow!!"
"Whose subordinate is this, so brave?"
"Oh my God, I laughed so hard when I saw this title. Door-to-door sales of coffins. How did you even come up with this idea, host?"
"I bet this anchor would only dare to promote a pack of spicy strips."
"Hurry up and start anchor, I want to watch!"
"Seriously, anchor, if you really follow what the title says, knock on a house's door and sell a coffin to them seriously, I will gift you with a rocket. If you don't do what you say, I hope you're blasted with thunder!"
"..."
Han Haocheng became speechless when he saw the barrage in the live broadcast room. He didn't know wether to laugh or cry.
'It looks like that today, I am destined to lose face in the live broadcast room.'
'Anyhow, for the reward of 100,000 yuan, this task must be done.'
No matter what, since he decided to do it then he must stick with his decision. This mountain, he has to have the courage to climb, and have the backbone to face the upcoming scrutiny. He will stand upright and not bow down to the adversity.
He hesitated no more and came to the gate of a nearby house. Han Haocheng raised his hand and prepared to knock on the door.
There was a squeak.
The door opened from the inside first.
A exaggeratedly muscular and 2 meters tall man appeared infront of him.
"What is it?"
"Who are you looking for?"
The strong man said, subconsciously smoothing his sleeves, revealing half of his arm tattoos.
