Chapter 845: Physical Labor Is the Most Glorious

Chapter 845: Physical Labor Is the Most Glorious

He looked at Luke and Selina again. The way they behaved, wasn’t it like that movie about the assassin couple?

Also, law and order in Clinton was bad, but property prices here weren’t cheap at all. After all, this was still the heart of Manhattan.

Luke and Selina were both good-looking and had money, so why would they buy a house in Clinton?

The only possibility was that they were assassins, and their money was the kind that couldn’t see the light of day, which was why they had come to settle down in the Clinton area.

Since he couldn’t count on his cousin, Charlie shared this little secret with Raqael, and warned him to be careful.

Luke and Selina could tell what Charlie was thinking.

The guy couldn’t hide much on his face, and he only lowered his voice a little when talking to Raqael.

Whenever the two boys were chatting, Luke and Selina would often sit at the window above them and smile as they listened to Charlie analyze the two assassins upstairs.

After the Hudson incident, Luke finally had peace.

These hooligans all shared the same information. Apart from petty theft, the only thing these loafers could do was talk big and gossip.

Many of them were half-grown kids who constantly committed minor offenses but never major crimes.

These were the most annoying for Luke.

As the system’s appetite grew daily, he had little interest in fighting these small fry.

Petty theft wasn’t enough for Luke to be ruthless with them.

But if he was targeted by these little rats, who knew what disgusting thing they might do if he and Selina were at work.

Things like smashing windows, graffiti and dumping sh*t were cheap and easy to do.

So, the scarier Charlie made Luke and Selina sound, the better.

The hooligans had their own way to survive. Without enough money as a lure, they wouldn’t mess with “professionals.”

As for the “professionals” around this new home, they would probably fall soon.

When it came to those who had committed the most heinous crimes, the Ghost Butcher, who had rested for half a year, couldn’t endure his hunger any longer.

On their seventh day in New York, Luke and Selina finally completed the preliminary renovations.

Luke gave the money to the two boys, who were panting at the door, and said with a smile, “This temp job is over.”

The two boys cheered.

Luke didn’t interrupt them. He waited for a bit, before he said, “However…”

The two immediately fell silent and looked at him pitifully; they were afraid that he would say that there were other odd jobs waiting for them.

As expected, Luke said, “However, I still have a lot of odd jobs for you.”

Both of them were devastated. When would this bitter life end?!

Smiling at the two of them, Luke said, “If I catch you stealing from me again, I’ll give you a month’s worth of work.”

They shook their heads. “No, no more. We promise to stay far away from here.”

Luke nodded. “That’s great. Let’s go. You’re off work today.”

The two of them ran off.

Only then did Luke give Temple her share, and he smiled. “Thank you for your help.”

Temple accepted the money with a smile. Putting it into her pocket, she bowed slightly. “Thank you, Luke.”

Luke said, “You’re welcome. We’re neighbors now. You can come to us if you need anything.”

Temple said goodbye and left.

Luke was right. They were neighbors now. When she had time later, it would be good for her to drop by with a gift.

Outside the door, she heard Charlie say excitedly, “I’m going to buy a cell phone, the latest Titanium model.”

Raqael nodded. “That’s right. We have to buy matching ones, haha.”

Charlie slapped his forehead. “That’s right. We’re rich.”

They had earned 100 bucks a day for the first two days, and after Luke raised their pay, they earned a whole 1000 bucks over the next four days.

For two half-grown kids who never held permanent jobs, this was without doubt a huge amount of money.

They had been so exhausted every day after work that they fell asleep right away. They didn’t dare slack off while they were on the clock, so they hadn’t had the time to spend the money.

It was only now that they realized that they were rich.

Temple didn’t object.

Although it wasn’t very good to use such a good cell phone in the Clinton area, she wanted the two of them to know that they could earn money through honest work and buy the most fashionable cell phones for themselves.

It was better than letting them think about where to go to steal stuff every day.

After letting them revel in their happiness for a moment, she said, “Get in. The store will close in an hour. I’ll take you there.”

Charlie and Raqael woke up and looked at her nervously. “No, it’s fine.”

Temple said, “Are you planning to walk there? You’ll be robbed on the way.”

Both of them came back to their senses.

In the past, they wandered around here casually since their pockets were cleaner than their faces. Nobody would bother with them.

However, if they were going to buy matching Titanium phones later, they would need to take out 500 dollars each, which was a lot of money.

Thinking this, the two of them hurriedly got into the pickup. Right now, they each had 200 bucks in hand, and could be easily robbed.

Charlie hesitated for a long while before he asked in a low voice, “You’re not going to scold me?”

In the past, Temple would nag him for a long time if he spent 20 or 30 bucks on a game, but he now wanted to spend 500 bucks.

Temple didn’t look at him as she said casually, “That’s your money. As long as you don’t buy weed, you can spend it however you want. Raqael, I’ll explain it to your mother.”

Both of them were stunned.

They had never seen Temple face them so calmly.

In the past, whenever she talked to them, she always sounded disappointed, which made them feel uncomfortable.

Now, however, Temple was treating them… like equals.

Temple continued driving. “After you buy your phones, don’t take them out here. If you want to show them off, take your girlfriends to the Upper East Side to play. In any case, you earned this money this time.”

Still dazed, the two of them nodded dumbly.

…

Luke didn’t know that a certain cousin was calmly teaching the two boys a lesson on the glories of one’s own hard work.

Pleased with themselves, he and Selina took Gold Nugget with them on a tour around their new home.

There was only a small hall behind the front door on the first floor and a flight of stairs to the second floor.

Apart from a back door, Luke had sealed up most of the first floor.

Along with the illegal basement he had set up, this was his new workshop.

The first floor also doubled as a garage and a place to modify various large objects.

The basement was used to process items that had to be kept confidential, such as armor, flight devices and firearms.
