The bicycle that originally had only two large tires was transformed into a super powerful bike with six tires in just one morning that even a baby could learn to ride with their eyes closed. This was a development that Bai Li had never expected.
Like Wen Xingyao, Bai Li had always been very popular among the players. When he met a player on the street, few of them would not greet him. This led to the fact that when he left his home and walked all the way to the village entrance, no less than ten people had asked him if he wanted to learn how to ride a bicycle.
Bai Li shook his head and refused them one by one.
There are only fifty players who own bicycles in the game.
Before arriving at the village entrance, Bai Li didn't know what had happened. He just felt that the players today were extremely enthusiastic, as if something big and happy had happened.
When we arrived at the open space at the entrance of the village, we saw that the originally wide and flat ground had been artificially divided into three lanes on the left and right. Each lane was more than three meters wide, and the lanes were full of people practicing cycling, riding back and forth, making it very lively.
Looking at the bicycles under the players again, even though he had seen many of their strange ideas, Bai Li couldn't help rubbing his eyes, suspecting that he had seen it wrong.
It's fine that there are small wheels at the back to keep the car balanced, but why are there two wheels under the front tires? What's the purpose of this? Are these players not satisfied with just two wheels?
What's going on? It's suddenly a little funny.
Bai Li came here with Wen Xingyao. Seeing this, Wen Xingyao nodded in agreement: "This should be used to stabilize the bicycle. I didn't expect everyone's brains are so flexible. This way, we don't need others to help from behind."
Bai Li: “…”
Bro, are you serious about that?
Seeing Wen Xingyao's serious expression, Bai Li knew that he agreed with this idea from the bottom of his heart. After hesitating for a long time, he decided not to raise any objections and just treat it as a new trend in learning to drive in the interstellar space.
By the way, the fact that the users of "balance training wheels" are relatively young was also concealed. Ahem, we have to save some face for everyone.
The two did not stop at the entrance of the village as they received Mo Song's invitation to discuss some things.
Before leaving, Bai Li accidentally bumped into a player and apologized to him sheepishly, but the player didn't even look at him and kept muttering, "How could this happen? How could this happen? It was obviously my idea first, but in the end I was the one who made the least money. Wow! Damn it, this is so unfair..."
Bai Li and Wen Xingyao looked at each other, making sure that the other was not hit anywhere, then they helped the person to a place with fewer people and left, looking back every step of the way.
On the way to find Mo Song, they also guessed what the man said. However, even if the two had rich imaginations, they would not have thought that the player who looked mysterious was actually the first person to make the "balance training wheel".
The two came in a hurry and left quickly, without attracting everyone's attention. This was the time when players were most enthusiastic about learning. Not only did they borrow bicycles to learn, but they also enthusiastically recommended them to their game friends, as if if you didn't learn how to ride a bicycle, you would be "out".
Xiao Baicai and her sister Hongfeng had almost learned how to ride yesterday evening, but they came here today and lent the bike to another sister, and taught her how to ride. When the "balance training wheels" came out, Xiao Baicai followed suit and bought two, installing them on the front and rear wheels, freeing her and Hongfeng's hands, allowing the other sister to practice on her own.
Anyway, no matter how bad your sense of balance is, you can't fall to the ground.
Hongfeng saw Xiaobaicai looking at the crowd thoughtfully and asked her curiously what she was thinking about.
"I was wondering if I could make some money by taking advantage of everyone's learning to ride a bicycle." Xiao Baicai said solemnly, "Fengfeng, you've seen that even players who don't have a bicycle can make a lot of money by inventing the 'balance training wheel'. And I obviously own a bicycle, so why can't I make money with it? I was wondering, what are the ways to make money with a bicycle..."
Hong Feng didn't understand Xiao Baicai's desire and said puzzledly, "But even if we can make money, it's just the coins in the game, and we can't spend it. I always feel that making money like this is a waste of time. Can't we use this time to grow some crops and flowers in the yard?"
"You don't understand!" Xiao Baicai said more solemnly, "There's actually no difference between making money in the game and making money in real life. They're all for survival! And the feeling of making money through your own efforts is wonderful. I've tried setting up a stall at the night market before. Although the food I sold was just ordinary food I made, I actually made quite a few gold coins in half a night. I was so satisfied at the time."
Little White Cabbage didn't know that in many online games during the ancient Blue Star period, there was a group of players called "life players". They were not keen on various dungeons in the game, nor were they interested in fighting monsters. Their biggest hobby was to see the scenery, practice life skills, and collect, mine, fish, plant, refine medicine, forge... As long as it involved material collection and prop production, they were very interested. And selling the collected and produced props at the stall was also one of their hobbies.
With Xiao Baicai’s current gaming mentality, it’s really no problem to say that she is a “life player”.
"Hmm..." Hong Feng didn't know how to answer. After thinking for a long time, he took the initiative to give Xiao Baicai an idea, "Then...how about we go find the person who sells 'training wheels', buy a batch of goods from him, and then sell them ourselves?"
"No, no." Xiao Baicai shook her head and refused. "I've observed that as long as you have the carpentry skill, you can make this wheel, and it's not difficult to make. Haven't you noticed that in just a few hours, the price of 'training wheels' has dropped from a few gold to a few silver? If we add it now, we might lose money. Besides, most players who have cars have bought 'training wheels' now, and it's obvious that they are not selling well, so this business will definitely not be done."
"Ah, then I have no other choice." Hong Feng scratched his head, indicating that he could not come up with any better suggestions.
Xiao Baicai pondered over it, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind. He said excitedly: "Ah! I thought of it. I can rent out my bicycle. We only have a few friends. Even if they all learn the game, there must be many people who don't have the opportunity to learn! I will set the price according to how much per hour, maybe someone will be willing to learn for a fee!"
One bike is not enough. Xiao Baicai counted on his fingers happily, "Besides, I can also find other people who have bikes and cooperate with them to rent out bikes together. When more people learn to ride bikes, those who haven't learned will definitely be anxious. Then they will come to us to rent bikes!"
"And this isn't just a business for 5,000 people. If there are more and more players in the game and no new means of transportation are updated in the game, there will always be people willing to spend some money to try it out, hehe~"
There are so many players in the game that you can meet people of all kinds. It is true that most of the men and women in StarCraft are outgoing and outgoing, and they make friends all over the world soon after entering the game, but it is impossible to get to know all 4999 people in less than a month, right? Moreover, there are also some solitary people who like to play games alone and are not interested in other people's lives.
Xiaobaicai's target customers are those who want to learn how to ride a bicycle but don't know anyone who owns a bicycle. If they are given a chance to get a bicycle for a short period of time for learning with just a little money, few people will miss it.
Hong Feng: “…”Awesome, my sister!
After coming up with the general idea for the car rental business, Xiao Baicai pulled Hong Feng along and excitedly went to discuss it with someone.
If Bai Li, who had already met Mo Song, didn't know, a "bicycle rental company" would soon be established in the game he made.
But even if he knew, he would just keep a happy attitude and let players do whatever they want. At most, he would add other more interesting means of transportation after players get tired of bicycles.
Now it's time to get down to business.
"Mr. Bai, Yaoxing, I asked you to come here because I have a request." Mo Song looked at the two and explained the matter briefly. "After the event ended yesterday, everyone exchanged a lot of props, including ten tree houses. Today, I asked in the village, and these tree houses have been taken out to replace the players' original houses. As you know, the audience in my live broadcast room are quite curious. They asked to see what the tree house looks like and what the furnishings in other players' houses are like. I let them say whose house they want to see... As a result, you two got a high number of votes. Well, although I feel a little embarrassed and think it will trouble you, I still shamelessly ask, can you two cooperate with me to record an episode of 'Player House Decoration Awards' together?"
"Of course, in addition to you two, there are some other players who are also being invited. I will invite them one by one later. After the list of participants is confirmed, I will promote it on Starblog." Mo Song told his arrangements in detail.
It has been more than a month since the game was launched, and the first batch of old players, even if they were lazy, had two or three more rooms added to their houses. Even for lazy players, the number of rooms for players with more experience is definitely much more.
During this period, Bai Li would put some indoor furniture on the shelves in the game mall every few days. There were simple and modern, fresh and pastoral, and antique furniture. When purchasing, players could not only choose their favorite styles, but also a variety of colors. Strictly speaking, the total number of these furniture was at least three or four thousand, if not five thousand.
With so many furniture arrangements and combinations, players’ interior decorations will definitely be different, and maybe they can even find a "surprise" among them!
After Mo Song finished speaking, he looked at Bai Li and Wen Xingyao who were lost in thought, waiting for their answers.
