Money Can Buy Everything

012: [Learning] and [Teaching]

When Momo fell down, he was still a sixteen-year-old handsome youth, but when he got up, his life force had dwindled to 75 years, and he had transformed into a mature and composed 25-year-old adult.

And Momo used a mature tone of voice to persuade Reimu, leaving her speechless.

"Hmph, go ahead and choose your additional skill. Be careful, if it expires, I'll cancel your freedom to choose."

"Okay, okay, I need to be mature and composed."

Momo glanced at the selection menu and pressed without hesitation, saying, "This one."

"Let me see, '[Learning] and [Teaching]'?"

[Learning] and [Teaching]: Active additional skill, can be chosen at the beginning of the transaction. Once activated, the user can use the [Learning] skill to replicate the specified experiences and skills of the transaction partner, allowing the trader to acquire them. At the same time, the user can also replicate their own specified experiences and skills and impart them to the transaction partner. Limited to once per day.

Warning: If this skill is not activated, direct purchase of experiences and skills from the trading partner will cause the partner to forget their experiences and skills.

Reimu was somewhat surprised and said, "I thought, based on your temperament, you would just trade skills with others without hesitation, and then make them forget it. Wouldn't that be the best?"

Momo shrugged and said, "If the trader is a teammate, would you make your teammate forget their skills too? Moreover, imparting and forgetting are not the same thing. How much cost do you think it would take to make a strong person forget their skills?"

"Hmph, if you want me to forget my abilities, I would probably kill you first."

"That's the spirit!"

Momo chose the additional skill, upgraded his trading authority to Level 3, and his number of daily trades reset, giving him three more opportunities for transactions.

"Now it's time for us to take action."

After bidding farewell to the fanatical French billionaire, Mifune returned to Momo once again. According to the agreement, Momo needed his help with something, and Momo would trade with him once more.

This time, Mifune brought a desolate woman, and Momo immediately chose to trade with her. As expected, the woman chose money and gave up her own life.

As for her life, her family, her pursuits, Momo couldn't care less anymore.

This is a trade where both parties follow the principles of equivalence, voluntary participation, and fairness, regardless of good or evil, each taking what they need.

This time, Momo spent $5 billion to purchase 50 years of life force, leaving him with $450 billion. Momo's life force was also replenished to 125 years, and he returned to his 16-year-old handsome teenage appearance.

Mifune watched all of this with an excited and envious gaze. Even though he had witnessed Momo's transformation multiple times, he couldn't help but be amazed.

This is the charm of trading. When the day comes when life can be exchanged for money, some people are eager to exchange their lives for money, while others are desperate to spend their savings for a chance at rebirth.

"Mifune, I intend to make a trade with you using 20 years of my life force. I will use 10 years of life force to purchase information from your mind about various powers and individuals in this world, and help me establish connections. Additionally, the remaining 10 years will be directly gifted to you as compensation for your cooperation over the past few days. What do you think?"

"I agree, I agree!"

Mifune shouted in excitement. Now in his forties, gaining an additional 20 years of life force would mean a return to his youth.

[Learning] and [Teaching], active skill, activate!

"Deal reached."

Mifune's appearance gradually became younger, not returning to his original appearance in his twenties. Momo closed his eyes, digesting Mifune's experiences in this world.

When Momo opened his eyes, Mifune's face was filled with excitement but also a hint of confusion. Momo naturally understood what he was thinking and said, "Mifune, consider this a small warning. Life force is only the theoretical power that allows you to live for a certain number of years. In reality, the consumption of life force is not constant."

"You are now becoming younger because of the substantial replenishment of life force, but your physical ailments have not been cured. So, you still need to take care of your body and treat your illnesses. And though you should be in your twenties now, you still appear to be in your thirties. That's the best proof."

Mifune trembled and straightened his body, respectfully bowing to Momo, saying, "Thank you for your guidance."

"Also, remember... put on some makeup. Your body has become younger, but you still need to make yourself look a little older. Otherwise, be careful of scientists showing up at your door wanting to dissect you."

"Haha, Mr. Momo, you're joking. However, I will follow your advice. I am well aware that once the secret of your power leaks out, it will bring endless troubles. I will never allow such a thing to happen."

"That's good. Next, I will have one final trade with you today."
