Chapter 90



Chapter 90

In the living room of the new home, Shu Mo stood in front of the French window holding a cup of coffee, with a huge suspended light screen in front of him.

The bright sunlight filtered through the window panes and through the pattern reflected on the screen, casting shadows of varying depths behind her.

This is an enlarged view of the management system panel.

[Total number of buildings detected reached 10]

[New function of business panel is now available: 3D map]

[You can now demolish and move buildings directly through the 3D map! Remember to evacuate customers and employees in advance~】

Shu Mo went to bed last night without waiting for the system to settle the data. This is the content that was just refreshed this morning.

Not every facility can be considered a building. For example, a foot spa, although placed outdoors, can actually only be considered a facility. Before the establishment of the commercial street, the hotel's real buildings only consisted of the main building and the annex, as well as the lake, which was a "super-large landscape building".

Later, more handicraft shops and businesses moved into the commercial street, and the total number finally reached 10 buildings.

As the number of buildings increased, it became extremely inconvenient to slightly adjust the layout. A few trips back and forth would use up all the exercise for the day, and people would often watch him. Shu Mo had been troubled by this for several days, but he did not expect to unlock this function today.

It can be said that it came at a very timely moment.

She clicked on the extra cursor in the panel.

The cursor pattern is a small wooden house, which is exactly what Nuannuan Hot Spring looked like at the beginning. After clicking, a three-dimensional map of about two square meters appeared in front of Shu Mo.

From the outside, it looks like the miniature sand table commonly seen in sales offices, with the entire hot spring scaled down in proportion.

Unlike the 2D brown paper map that comes with the doomsday game and that every player has, the entire sandbox is colored and is no different from the real thing. You can zoom in and out to view details or an aerial view of the entire hot spring.

There is even a phantom of a lake in the distance of the buildings. When you drag your camera over there, the lake suddenly becomes real, with ripples on the water. Two small boats the size of half a fingernail are tied to the shore with thin lines, swaying gently.

It was so realistic that Shu Mo watched it with interest for two seconds, then stretched out his index finger and carefully poked it into the lake.

The moment they touched, the fingertips were submerged in the icy cold lake water.

I couldn't poke any further before the second knuckle, and the fingertips gave me the feeling of the dense and silky sand on the bottom of the lake.

Just like when he was a kid playing with water, after putting his hand in, he would always stir it out of habit. Shu Mo subconsciously splashed his hands a few times, but he didn't expect that the next second, a scream was heard far away outside the window.

"Ah! What's going on?"

"Tsunami??"

"No, this is a lake, where does the tsunami come from..."

Shu Mo hissed, startled, and quickly withdrew his hand.

A line of prompt suddenly popped up in front of me:

[Please note!] Changes made on the map will be reflected in the buildings in real time. Please be sure to evacuate in advance to avoid unnecessary casualties. 】

[Do you want to change the [Real-time effect] mode to [Delayed effect] mode? 】

[Tip: You can switch the construction mode at any time in the settings. 】

The word "casualties" made Shu Mo's eyelids twitch, and she was so scared that she quickly chose yes.

After the modification, when the building is moved, a light blue light will appear on the map to indicate the original location of the building.

After moving, there will be a bang sound effect, the map will shake slightly, and the system will pop up a reminder:

[Do you want to save the current changes? 】

Shu Mo was just trying it out and didn't really want to change it. After clicking "No", the changes were undone and the lake remained where it was.

She moved her feet, walked to the side of the bamboo forest, and zoomed in a little.

After magnification, each bamboo is about the length of Shu Mo's fingers, and each bamboo leaf is portrayed in detail, and you can even feel the protruding bamboo nodes on the bamboo pole.

Shu Mo randomly selected a lucky bamboo on the edge of the map, pinched it with his fingertips, and applied a little force——

The bamboo was pulled out of the ground with a "puff" and lay pitifully in her palm.

Shu Mo: “…” I didn’t expect it to work.

Originally thinking that it was just a whim of his, it was actually realized by the game system. Shu Mo felt satisfied and found a piece of soft snow and inserted the bamboo back.

【Save changes】

At the same time, a young couple who were having a tryst in the bamboo forest were startled by the sound of bamboo leaves shaking violently not far away.

They stopped being intimate and looked in that direction blankly.

Nothing happened and the bamboo forest was peaceful and quiet.

At this time, most players were either shopping in the commercial street or leveling up in the wild. They observed for several days and found that no one would come.

But what was that sound?

The boy rubbed his eyes and said, "Why do I feel like a bamboo has changed its position..."

...Seeing a ghost in broad daylight?

The girl was full of questions and pushed him away, "Are you trying to scare me on purpose?"

The boy had no way to defend himself.

But there was indeed no one around, and it was impossible for the bamboo to grow legs and run away. The sun was shining brightly above his head, but for some reason he felt goose bumps on his back.

The two lost interest in the date and left in a hurry.

Shu Mo, the instigator, had no idea that he had added a new horror legend to the hot spring, and was still enthusiastically exploring the functions of the map.

She discovered that she could also pay for an upgrade to display the customers as little figures on the sand table!

After spending 3,000 points, turn on the [Show Customers] function, and countless small figures will suddenly appear on the sandbox.

The system has made special processing so that the figurines representing the customers are not scaled down in proportion, but are 3D pixel figurines similar to Lego or characters in some well-known sandbox games.

Near noon, the commercial street was especially crowded with people, small figures walking from one store to another. The hot pot restaurant is doing a booming business, with a long queue of little people even forming under the mini copper pot hanging at the door of the store.

There were also a few customers queuing in front of the mobile stall at the entrance of the main building. After the transaction was completed, there was a clang and a small number +20 popped up above the stall.

Shu Mo: “!!!”

It's so interesting, it feels like I discovered a new world.

She felt like she could look at this sandbox and the pixelated figures on it for a whole day!

It was a long time before Shu Mo remembered the important matter.

With such a convenient sandbox construction mode, we must start building something to make the most of such a useful update of the system.

Shu Mo looked at the miniature hot spring in front of him and felt itchy.

Since the shops on the commercial street moved in one after another, in addition to the fixed income from bathing, accommodation, and catering, the hot spring has also gained a share of the commercial street and rental income. Add to that the income brought by the monster tide during those few days, and the daily bill is so long that it is impossible to see the end at a glance.

Therefore, she now had more points than ever before.

As we all know, once people have money, they always want to do something.

Now with the help of the sandbox, Shu Mo wants to make something bigger.

Since we are planning to build a homestay, we might as well take this opportunity to renovate the hot spring.

She scanned the map and quickly locked onto the first spot.

By the lake, a unlucky guy was standing with a depressed look on his face.

He was holding a bag of bait in his hand.

His name is Xin Rui. He was a loyal fishing enthusiast before the doomsday. However, after the doomsday game began, all creatures became extinct and he lost his greatest hobby.

A while ago, Xin Rui was so happy when he learned that there were fish in the streams and lakes of Nuannuan Hot Spring.

After that, he never missed any fish-related activities in Wenquan, whether it was the weekly creek fishing event or the fish grilling party.

Recently, fish food has been added to the vending machine, allowing players to feed the fish themselves. Since then, he has come to feed the fish every day without fail.

Just to see the fish gathered together and playing around him.

Xin Rui came as usual today.

After buying the feed, he chose an area that had not been fed yet according to the instructions. He spread the bait carefully, and after waiting patiently, the fish finally gathered around.

However, the next moment, somehow, the weather on the lake suddenly changed, the water was violently agitated, and the fish were scared away instantly.

Xin Rui: sluggish.jpg

The water in front of him suddenly became empty, and when the last fish disappeared from his sight, the huge shaking suddenly stopped.

As if nothing had happened, the water surface returned to calm.

Xin Rui looked up blankly, looked at the cloudless blue sky, and then looked at the calm lake in front of him: "???"

What just happened? Is this some kind of God's trick?

Making such a big noise just to drive away his fish...?

Xin Rui suffered a critical hit.

He finally calmed down and was about to move to another place and start over when he suddenly heard a strange noise behind him.

This was followed by a series of screams from the campers.

Xin Rui looked back and saw that around the lake, the snow field, which had been trampled into mud by countless campers coming and going, suddenly stretched out into a green meadow, which covered most of the snowfield in front of him in an instant.

At the foot of the mountain on the opposite bank, rows of cedars appeared, forming a cedar forest along the lakeshore and the undulating mountains. The shadows of the trees were reflected on the clear lake surface, in an orderly manner.

The mountains are covered with snow, but the areas where people live below are filled with fresh green and wooden buildings, creating a harmonious coexistence between man and nature.

Just as the players were marveling at the beautiful scenery that suddenly appeared before them, Xin Rui felt a vibration under his feet.

——Again?

He took two steps back.

As the ground shook, the lake began to boil, and Xin Rui watched as a wooden plank road extended out of thin air from the shore. That’s not all. The next second, a small wooden house fell from the sky on the lawn not far away.

The world was quiet for two seconds.

Xin Rui thought he might be crazy.

——Can this thing also fall from the sky? ?

The wooden house was not big, only a few square meters inside, with a large window on one side, like some kind of reception area commonly seen in scenic spots.

Xin Rui moved over cautiously and took a look. Through the window, he caught a glimpse of a row of things neatly arranged against the wall inside.

There was no light in the room, it was pitch black, and I could only vaguely make out a long, thin pole, the shape of which looked very familiar.

Xin Rui recognized it in a second: "!!"

Isn’t that his beloved fishing rod?

The fisherman's DNA moved!

There was a notice board hanging on the wall of the wooden house, and words slowly appeared on the originally blank page, as if an invisible person was writing quickly.

But Xin Rui was not afraid at all. He approached with eyes wide open and a face full of excitement.

ghost? What is that? Is fishing important?

On the other side, Shu Mo saw through the map a pixelated man standing motionless in front of the wooden house, and his scalp tingled.

She thought that after putting down the building, it would take some time for customers to react before coming over, so she didn't have time to write the sign, but she didn't expect someone to come so quickly.

The fisherman is so scary.

Tapping the light screen with her hands, she hurriedly wrote line after line in the text box, and finally pressed the OK button.

【Reception Office of Snow Mountain and Lake Scenic Area】

Provide many entertainment activities such as boating/fishing/self-service barbecue, etc.

You can rent fishing gear/paddles/life jackets, and buy fish food/charcoal, etc.

【Price List】

Rowing: 80 points/30 minutes

Fishing: 100 points/five fish (limited number of people per day)

Some entertainment projects that were scattered around the lake in the past have now been integrated together by Shu Mo. Items such as fish food and charcoal fire no longer need to be purchased from the vending machines in the annex, as they can be purchased directly here.

This way, two seats can be saved at the vending machine over there.

In addition, she also made use of the bamboo rafts that had been used as a background before - in fact, they were mainly used to make up the number of lake construction. She spent more than a thousand points to buy life jackets and other props, which would allow her to make a profit in the future.

The fry mature once a week, and Shu Mo would regularly organize fishing activities in the creek. However, fishing in the lake was too dangerous, so he had to switch to fishing.

Of course, the density cannot be too high, otherwise it will interfere with the normal guests' enjoyment of the scenery. In addition, the number of fishing rods is limited, so the number of places is limited every day.

——What, you’re addicted to fishing? Come early to grab a spot.

Xin Rui was more and more delighted as he watched, "The hotel is actually offering a fishing experience activity!"

Thanks to the noise at the lake just now that scared away the others, he was the only one left, and he ended up getting the first place. Now he doesn't have to worry about anyone snatching the fishing rod from him.

He stood happily in front of the closed door, looking forward to it.

Not long after, an employee in a pink uniform hurried over from the direction of the hotel.

She received news from Shu Mo that she was assigned to be in charge of the reception desk by the lake starting today.

Opening the wooden door, there are several rows of shelves inside, one row with fishing gear, one row with oars, and life jackets piled in the corner. There was a long table and chairs in front of the window, and the table was already filled with fish food, charcoal in plastic bags, and other things that Shu Mo had purchased.

The employee sat down familiarly and quickly got into work mode. He looked at the first guest at the reception desk and said, "Hello, what can I do for you?"

"I want to try that fishing experience activity." Xin Rui said impatiently.

"Okay." The employee smiled. "It's 100 points per time, and you can catch a total of five fish. You can choose to return the fish you catch to the hotel and exchange them for a free fish dish, or keep two for yourself - as long as you buy charcoal, you can grill them at the barbecue stove next to it."

The basic settings are the same as the fishing activity. Moreover, the lake and the campsite are close to each other, which allows for a one-stop fishing and barbecue experience.

"Five fish!" Xin Rui's eyes lit up, and he rubbed his hands happily, "That's enough for me to fish for many days!"

What a deal!

The shop assistant: “…”

Why does this sound so miserable?
