230 The Tenth Shop
◎They really want to give players some benefits!◎
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the business of the Hot Spring Hotel has improved a little.
The little people exchanged what they had at the market, and more items were available for exchange. They spontaneously set a time to hold the market, with a small market held every five days and a large market held every fifteen days.
The Mid-Autumn Festival had just ended, and the news about the market spread. Before the next market day, little people from distant tribes had already rushed to the Hot Spring Hotel in pairs.
When Zhang Ruiyao and Lin Yan arrived at the Hot Spring Hotel, it was also the time when the hotel was full of customers.
The two stepped into the store, looked at nothing, and turned back to get their suitcases, but were stopped by Bai Lu.
"Wait a moment, both of you."
Zhang Ruiyao paused, inexplicably nervous: "What
's wrong?" Lin Ran suddenly squatted down, widened her eyes, and pointed at the transparent hamster tunnels at the threshold with trembling fingertips: "What is this?"
Because of nervousness and surprise, the lady's voice was a little split.
In the hamster tunnel, the little man was leading a palm-sized red pig and a long-haired cow, and the small animals were carrying luggage the size of a human fingernail.
Being stared at by a huge human, the little man passenger also felt very nervous. He stopped walking and fell forward, motionless, leaving only the red pig and the long-haired cow standing still helplessly.
Because he felt his life was threatened, the little man guest entered a state of suspended animation.
In fact, he was just pretending to be dead.
But this kind of situation is rare in the store, Bai Lu immediately contacted the staff to deal with it.
She stood up to greet Zhang Ruiyao and Lin Yan: "Are you two guests from the Fu Sheng Game Activity Group? The guest room is ready, please follow me upstairs."
Zhang Ruiyao slowly turned his eyes, saw the unusual decoration style of the store, the thumb figures coming and going in various mini buildings, and raised his hand to rub his eyes vigorously.
He rubbed his eyes until they were almost red and swollen, but the scene in front of him didn't change at all. He turned to look at Bai Lu in panic: "What's going on here? I seem to see a lot of little people, less than the size of a palm, walking around."
Lin Yan stepped forward and nodded in agreement: "I saw them too... Such cute little people, just like the real ones."
Butterfly, Platycodon, Jinjin and A'dai had already gone to the transparent channel to comfort the little people guests. Bai Lu took the opportunity to briefly introduce them to the two guests.
"This is the hot spring hotel, where you two will stay for this two-day, three-night trip. Our inn is connected to the alien world of Nit'an Continent, and we usually receive the Nit'an dwarfs from Nit'an Continent. The dwarfs are the guests you just saw who are not even as tall as our palms. There are guest rooms upstairs specially prepared for adults, so you two may as well follow me upstairs to put down your things."
Zhang Ruiyao and Lin Yan stood far away without moving, their eyes looking around uncontrollably, blinking hard, the alien "How can we believe this?"
Suddenly there was a noise at the entrance of the stairs. Xie Xiuliang, who was wearing a loose cotton coat and dressed like a retired old man, came down from the stairs. Seeing the two young people standing there like a fool, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Are these new guests?"
A few days ago, Shi Yan brought a few friends to experience the whole street. Except for the younger Xie Jiaran who didn't become a member, Zheng Zhuo, Lu Yanlin and Xie Xiuliang didn't escape, and all became VIP guests of the shopping street. Lu Yao
not only received 3 million in membership fees that day, but also sold a few million rare products on the shelves, which was a big return.
Xie Xiuliang went home on the day after he became a member, packed some luggage, drove here by himself, and stayed at the hot spring hotel.
He has been living a rather "luxurious" life these past few days. At night, he plays mini chess, checkers, Monopoly, and other small games with the little people in the hotel until late at night, and then falls asleep naturally when he returns to his room.
He gets up early to eat at the Furry Shop, or order takeout from the restaurant next door. If he wants to eat food from another world, he can ask Xiaoji to help him make a reservation. After dinner, he goes to the cinema to watch a movie. From time to time, he can see movies from other worlds, and experience holographic projection.
The most interesting thing is that when he is waiting for the show, he sits in the lobby and listens to the guests of Dawu Dynasty chatting. Occasionally, he can't help but chat a few words.
Usually, he plays in the cinema until noon, and can ask the staff of the cinema to help him order a meal from Sixilou or Fuxianju, and he can also eat tea from Chunxilou and the new tea snacks from Yuguizhai.
After coming out of the cinema, Xie Xiuliang occasionally likes to sit in a nail salon. He has no interest in doing nail art, but he likes to watch the clerks make magic nail art. After leaving
the nail salon, Xie Xiuliang is also happy to go to the blind box store to kill time, sitting in a corner of the lobby to observe how the guests of the wasteland world use blind boxes to change the world.
Yesterday, the guests of the blind box store gathered in the store and used the puzzle pieces randomly distributed in the blind box to piece together a map.
They said they wanted to find a wise man through the route indicated by the map.
The owner once revealed that this wise man might have a way to help them get rid of the dilemma of land pollution.
Xie Xiuliang just thought it was very interesting.
The way of survival of human beings is indeed different. The people here are like passers-by in the movie, who have suffered many disasters and hardships, but they are unyielding.
Xie Xiuliang does not visit all the shops on the street every day. Sometimes he sits in a shop for a whole day.
For example, childhood cram schools and super-time Internet cafes are also places where he likes to spend time.
However, he goes to the errand shop every afternoon because the owner is there and he has the opportunity to chat with the owner, which always benefits him a lot.
Xie Xiuliang has not been to the only virtual shop, Lu Yao's creative DIY hut.
Lu Yao promised to take him to the store to have a look when he has time.
Zhang Ruiyao heard from Xie Xiuliang that he seemed to be a customer as well, and suddenly found a savior: "What's going on with this store?"
Xie Xiuliang raised his hand and made a "pause" gesture, pointing outside and said: "Don't panic, they're coming soon. I'll explain it to you later."
Zhang Ruiyao and Lin Yan turned their heads to look outside, and were surprised to find that the scenery outside had changed drastically. They didn't know when it was no longer the deserted street they had walked through, but had turned into an endless snowy plain.
The sky was high and the clouds were far away, and standing inside the door, you couldn't feel the cold wind, but just seeing the snow all over the ground made people shiver.
"Toot toot-toot-toot--"
A whistle suddenly sounded in the wilderness, and a mini train drove over from a distance, and Lin Yan and Zhang Ruiyao's eyes lit up.
The train was exquisitely made and extremely lifelike. It ran on tracks only as wide as a human palm, winding its way until it slowly arrived at the platform in front of the hotel.
The platform was clean and tidy, without any trace of snow. Two mini succulent flower pots were placed on both sides of the platform.
The plump green leaves of the succulents and the train became the rare bright colors in this pure white world.
The train stopped steadily, and the door slowly opened. Through the narrow window, you can see the movement of people in the carriage.
After a while, the door opened, and the round little people got off the train one by one, some of them were holding red pigs, and some were carrying luggage.
Lin Yun couldn't help but squat down and observe attentively: "They seem to look a little different. Does that one have beast ears?"
Xie Xiuliang felt that it was a bit impolite to use "one" to describe the dwarf tribe, and couldn't help correcting him: "They are also human beings, just like us, but they are smaller. The dwarfs from different tribes have their own strengths and their bodies also have some different characteristics."
Lin Yun's face, which had always been indifferent, finally had some fluctuations. His eyes narrowed, and a smile overflowed from the corners of his eyes and lips: "They look so cute."
Xie Xiuliang raised his right hand and placed it on his eyebrows, closed his eyes and looked into the distance: "Look at the mountain, they will come down soon."
Zhang Ruiyao looked up when he heard the voice, and Lin Yun slowly stood up.
On the hillside not far away, a thin cableway extended out, and a dandelion carriage the size of an ordinary person's fist was slowly sliding down from the top of the mountain.
Several people watched with bated breath for several minutes, until the dandelion landed steadily, the carriage opened, and several little people carrying prey came out.
Lin Yan said in a lost voice: "That mini cable car can actually run, it's so exquisitely made." The
dandelion carriage circled once, and slowly went up the mountain from the other end, taking four more little people with it before leaving.
Zhang Ruiyao: "Did the villains do all this?"
Xie Xiuliang shook his head: "Of course not. It is said that the Nittian continent was originally closer to the original continent. Because the hot spring hotel chose this world, the owner expanded many infrastructures in this valley in order to attract customers."
Zhang Ruiyao: "Who is the owner?"
Xie Xiuliang: "She is the owner of this shopping street. It was also her who proposed the plan to invite you to the online game event."
Zhang Ruiyao and Lin Yan looked at each other and were quite surprised.
They still felt that it was not real. The headquarters of "The Legend of the Six Realms" was actually on such a desolate street.
Compared with the huge secret hidden in this street, the game event benefits suddenly seemed not so special.
But it was precisely because of the huge secrets of this street that they suddenly seemed to feel the sincerity of the game officials even more.
They really wanted to give players some benefits!
Lin Yan suddenly said, "No, isn't the production company of "The Legend of the Six Realms" the same as "The Time Traveler"? The headquarters of that company is indeed in Yaoguang City, but the address is definitely not here."
Lin Yan is also a loyal player of "The Time Traveler". She learned about "The Legend of the Six Realms" through the official account of the Time Delay Company and fell into the pit.
Xie Xiuliang: "That's right, but the team of "Time Traveler" and the official "Floating Life" are just partners. Maybe you don't know that "Floating Life" actually has another version, which is only running in the Internet cafe across this street. I suspect that the immortal world connected to the Internet cafe may be the prototype of the world setting of "Floating Life."
Zhang Ruiyao & Lin Yun: "!!!"
Xie Xiuliang: "You two go upstairs and put your luggage. I will take you to the Internet cafe first. I heard that you are here for free, so don't waste it. There are too many interesting places on this street."
Xie Xiuliang stayed in the hot spring hotel for several days, and every day, like the two young people, he kept opening up new worlds.
The job of the guide finally came to him.
Zhang Ruiyao and Lin Yun climbed upstairs dizzy.
There weren't many ordinary people coming to the hot spring hotel, and there were a limited number of guest rooms upstairs. Before going upstairs, the two asked Bai Lu for the room card.
Their rooms were all single rooms.
Zhang Ruiyao put down his suitcase and walked around the room. His heart was pounding and he couldn't control it at all.
The messages on his mobile phone kept ringing, and Zhang Ruiyao sat down to check.
Because he said a word and there was no response, the group was in an uproar.
Sometimes they talked about the glorious deeds of Emperor K in the past years, and sometimes they were worried that he had encountered an accident.
Zhang Ruiyao took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and started to reply to messages.
He tried to talk about something about the shopping street, but the phone seemed to be broken and he couldn't send messages.
After a few seconds, a pop-up window reminded him to pay attention to the confidentiality agreement.
Zhang Ruiyao no longer dared to underestimate the effectiveness of the confidentiality agreement of the shopping street. He had a lot of interesting things in his mind, but he couldn't share them with his friends. He could only report some unimportant things.
[Rui: I'm fine. I've arrived at the hotel smoothly.]
[Li: When are you going to the studio of "Floating Life"?]
[Jin: Remember to take pictures, especially more pictures of my wife.]
[Rui: Sorry, I may not be able to take pictures for you. The staff just came to say that you can't take pictures or videos during the visit.]
[Song: So stingy? Don't they want to use this event as a feedback report and attract more popularity.]
[Rui: ... They... may really not need it.]
[Song: ? ? ?]
[Rui: Brother Song, I'll treat you to dinner when I come back. 】
...
After saying this, Zhang Ruiyao put away his phone, changed his clothes, and prepared to go downstairs.
Thousands of miles away in Kaiyang City, in a male dormitory of the University of Science and Technology, three male college students were still talking about this matter.
They felt an unspeakable melancholy from Zhang Ruiyao's message. He seemed to have encountered something, but he said he wanted to treat Brother Song to dinner, which made people confused.
In another guest room of the hot spring hotel.
Lin Yan was lying on the spacious bed, staring at the ceiling.
The message alert sounded on her phone, and she picked it up.
[Hua: How about the event? ]
The message was sent by Lin Yan's friend.
Lin Yan decided to accept the arrangement of the "Floating Life" event group this time, in fact, to heal her emotional trauma.
She had just ended a three-year relationship with her first love, but the relationship ended with him cheating on her.
It happened more than a month ago, but she still can't get over it.
She thought this trip was a self-deception of self-salvation, but the activities prepared by the "Floating Life" game team were really amazing.
Even though she had been living a life of luxury since she was a child and was used to all kinds of extravagant and extravagant scenes, she was still shocked by the small hotel at first.
Lin Yan stared at her friend's message for a few seconds and slowly sat up.
[It's much more interesting than expected. I kind of like the destination of this trip.]
[Hua: That's good! You should have a good time first and don't think about those bad things.] After
chatting with her friends for a few words, Lin Yan changed her clothes, put on her bag, opened the door and went downstairs.
Lin Yan and Zhang Ruiyao went downstairs one after another. Xie Xiuliang was sitting at the door with a cup of tea. He turned his head when he heard the sound. Seeing them coming down, he stood up, put down the cup, and led the two out.
The wasteland outside the door was covered with snow, and when they were about to step out of the door
, it turned into the original street. The two came out and turned back, staring at the main entrance of the hotel for a long time until Xie Xiuliang urged them to follow .
The decoration style of the Super Time and Space Internet Cafe is considered to be more luxurious among the many shops on the street.
Before Xie Xiuliang took Zhang Ruiyao and Lin Yan into the store, he briefly introduced the situation of the Floating World Continent to them.
But when they walked in and saw all the creatures from the six realms gathered in the small Internet cafe, the two young men were still amazed and could hardly take their eyes off. Lu
Yao came out of the lounge behind the bar, saw the three people, walked over and said hello.
When Zhang Ruiyao and Lin Yan heard Xie Xiuliang talking about the owner of the shopping street, the image that came to their minds was a slightly older woman.
They did not guess that the owner was a man, mainly because the layout style of the hot spring hotel was so warm and colorful, and it didn't look like a man's work at all.
But seeing such a young owner, the two people's expression control system was still out of control.
Xie Xiuliang was also a little surprised: "Why are you here at this time?"
There was still some time before the errand shop closed, and Lu Yao usually stayed in the new store for a long time recently.
Business there is so good that the errand runners are almost overwhelmed, and even the owner has started to go out frequently.
Lu Yao: "Come to pick someone up."
Lu Yao suddenly came to the Internet cafe to test the little demons who wanted to go to the errand shop.
After a short period of intensive training, Xiong Anan and Dang Kangzizi have been able to maintain a stable transformed state.
Lu Yao asked Harold to come and take them there.
She was going to take the two new kids on a business trip.
Gaosheng City has a neighbor called Green Ant City.
Green Ant City has a new base under development, named Dawn Base.
Today, a supply search team came from the Dawn Base in Green Ant City.
They collected some materials, instruments, and parts for building power plants and reservoirs in Gaosheng City, as well as about 30% of survival supplies, including food, fuel, and some daily necessities.
The journey back was long and the cargo was heavy.
They were worried that they would not be able to transport the supplies back to Green Ant City smoothly, so they paid a large sum of money to entrust a running team to escort them.
Lu Yao originally did not intend to accept such a long-distance delivery order, but they gave too much.
Twenty pure gold bars of fifty grams each.
Lu Yao waved his hand and took the box of gold bars into his arms, sighing, "Even gods cannot be so pure and indifferent to money, let alone she is just a mortal", and calmly accepted the order.
However, since the limited-time water supply was restored in the two areas of Xilin Road and Guanyin Road, the residents scattered in the urban ruins have indeed slowly moved to the area centered on Guanyin Road.
As more residents moved out, the demand for errand runners also increased.
The business of the errand shop was in a stable growth period. The errand runners in the shop had a lot of work every day, and some fans even asked for them to work for them.
No one could spare the time to accompany Lu Yao on business trips. Bu Du wanted to accompany Lu Yao on a business trip, but Lu Yao refused because his children had to go to school. In the end, he grabbed two new cubs, Xiong Anan and Dang Kang, from the Internet cafe.
