283 ? The eleventh store,

283 The eleventh store,

◎First order completed! ◎

Sang He put down Green Light, but still couldn't make up her mind.

Her elbow touched a book next to her, which was a trial copy of The Count of Monte Cristo that the previous customer had placed there before leaving.

After the man who came in with her left, a new customer came in. Next to her sat a woman in her forties or fifties, holding a trial copy of Drifting.

Drifting was also a very thick book, and there were trial copies on the table.

Sang He took one, and before opening it, she had a sudden thought and looked at the price on the back.

200,000 Star Coins.

Sang He: "..."

While no one was paying attention, she put Drifting back and took The Count of Monte Cristo at hand.

The recommended price is 68,000 Star Coins.

Sang He felt that she was a little too proud. After seeing a book priced at 200,000 Star Coins, she felt that this one was only 68,000, which was much cheaper.

Sang He was actually touched by the short story before the store owner went live. She had recently had a feeling of difficulty concentrating at work and in life.

At first, Sang He thought that she was too tired from work, so she deliberately set aside some time to relax, play games, watch live broadcasts, and shop online.

These things are very interesting.

When she got tired of playing games, she would watch videos, watch live broadcasts, sleep, and shop. She was addicted for a long time.

One day about three months ago, Sang He felt like she had reached a dead end.

The happiness brought to her by games, live broadcasts, and shopping was very short-lived. The second she finished a game, the moment she exited the virtual live broadcast room, and after unboxing her shopping... within five minutes to half an hour, the extreme happiness disappeared without a trace.

During this period of confusion, an idea came to Sang He's mind.

She began to try to search for information related to the sale of electronic computers on the Internet.

This kind of transaction must not be put on the table, but it cannot be prevented.

Sang He knew that she had embarked on an extremely dangerous path, but she could not control the terrible thoughts that emerged in her mind.

Every night when everyone was still, the suffocating feeling of hitting a wall kept surrounding her. When she couldn't find a way out, the hysterical madness kept gnawing at her will.

Twenty minutes before entering the virtual live broadcast room of the bookstore, Sang He had just come out of the movie network.

After a long time of waiting, she finally met a seller who provided electronic computer transactions.

The price of browsing the brain of a 25-year-old unmarried and childless native was 700,000 star coins.

The price was not cheap, but ordinary people like Sang He did not have the ability and quality to hunt for human brains privately, and she did not want to break her current living conditions. After all, if she was caught, she would be sentenced, so she could only secretly spend money to buy browsing services.

Sang He and the seller talked about many details until they were both impatient, but she still hadn't made up her mind.

Coming out of the movie website in a daze, Sang He's mind was full of things like buying a computer browsing service. She was impulsive and prepared to go back to place an order. Perhaps because she was too nervous, she accidentally clicked on the live broadcast platform on the Star Network and accidentally entered the bookstore's live broadcast room.

When Sang He came in, there were not many people in the live broadcast room. The anchor was sitting alone under the camera. There was no assistant, no assisting robot, no exaggerated background music or product display.

The bright sunlight shone in from the side. The young native woman had a soft face, her eyebrows were drooping, and she was holding a strange board and reading.

Sang He's anxiety was soothed by the strangeness. When the anchor said that "books are a substitute for the brain", she entered the virtual live broadcast room.

The layout of the virtual live broadcast room was exactly the same as that displayed on the suspended light screen. She smelled a faint fragrance when she sat in.

After drinking hot tea and eating a few nuts, Sang He unconsciously forgot about buying the computer browsing service and picked up a book to read.

To be honest, Sang He felt that the experience of reading a book and browsing other people's brains was definitely different.

Although she has not taken that step yet, she vaguely guessed that forcibly browsing other people's brains is probably like entering a game. Everything you see, hear, and touch is three-dimensional and direct.

Books are different. Sometimes they are straightforward, sometimes they are implicit, sometimes they are full of tolerance, and sometimes they are cold and ruthless. Everything is constantly changing.

The author uses words to build magnificent towers, and hides his true thoughts in the dark river under the towers, flowing silently, waiting to be explored.

Unknowingly, Sang He finished reading the trial content of "The Count of Monte Cristo".

She stood up and exited the bookstore's virtual live broadcast room.

Two minutes later, an order prompt popped up on Lu Yao's star ring.

A Star Network user just placed an order for four books from Lu Yao's bookstore through Star Network, including the complete three volumes of "The Count of Monte Cristo" and a copy of "Green Light".

The popularity of the live broadcast room backstage, which is only visible to the anchor, increased by 400 points.

The Dream Fulfilling System excitedly yelled, "Ahhhhhh! First order completed!!!"

Lu Yao was also very excited. She sold four books in the first order, with a turnover of more than 200,000 Star Coins and a cumulative popularity of over 2,000 points. She was already quite satisfied.

The owner was so happy that he wanted to give out benefits, and immediately shouted in the live broadcast room, "The store has just completed its first order. A small gift will be sent with the order. Thank you for your support!"

The number of viewers in the live broadcast room has exceeded 1,000 and has stabilized at about 1,200.

[Wild Star No. 563: Who bought a book for 50,000 or 60,000? Which big guy? ]

[Wild Star No. 945: I have a question. Where do the books in the bookstore come from? 】

Lu Yao: "Lu Yao's bookstore is the only one in the entire star domain, and the store is located on Bookstore Street in the 8th District of Guandao. When you purchase books through the Star Network, the packages will be shipped from Guandao."

Lu Yao asked 0815, Guandao will ship from the 9th District every day, and the bookstore's packages will also be shipped out of the island.

Interstellar postmen have special fixed transportation routes. Except for extremely remote planets, most packages will be delivered to customers within two days.

As soon as this news came out, it sparked a small wave of discussion in the live broadcast room.

[Wild Star No. 3: Shipping from Guandao? Don't brag, host. ]

[Wild Star No. 9: If you really ship from Guandao, I will be interested in placing an order. ]

[Wild Star No. 33: It’s all a trick to bring goods. There used to be an independent clothing design store. I thought that if I wanted to go into the store to make clothes, the goods must be shipped from Guandao. Later, the shipping address I received was not Guandao at all. When I asked the customer service, the owner sent the size and data directly to the factory, and the clothes were made by robots. It was so frustrating!!!]

[Wild Star No. 497: After all, it is Guandao. Recruiting is just cooperation. It is impossible to allow online products to be shipped from the island. There are no factories on the island. It is so troublesome to transport goods to Guandao and then transport them out.]

...

The audience in the live broadcast room seemed to understand the live broadcast routine very well. Some of the audience even patronized the original store on the island.

Just as Lu Yao was about to explain, he faintly heard the timer ring. An hour had passed so quickly. It was time for a break. It was estimated that customers would come from the seventh and ninth districts.

Lu Yao pulled the suspended light screen with the words "Let's read together" in front of him, erased the original sentence, and wrote two new sentences -

[The live broadcast room has switched to the self-shopping mode. Please browse and place orders freely. The online packages will be packed live in the afternoon. ]

Lu Yao enlarged the screen, pushed it to the position just now, stood up and left the live broadcast area, and walked towards the cashier. There

were three guests sitting in the virtual live broadcast room. When he turned his head to look over, a set of cameras in the live broadcast room also turned in the direction and followed the direction the store owner left.

The message board started to scroll like crazy——

【Wild Star No. 7:? ? ?】

【Wild Star No. 33: Self-service shopping? You are too lazy to introduce the product?】

【Wild Star No. 497: What does that mean? Did the anchor let this live room go?】

...

I have been surfing the Internet for so many years, and I have seen all kinds of routines. This

is the first time I have seen such a Buddhist anchor, which has aroused the rebellious psychology of netizens.

...

Lu Yao hung a "self-service shopping" sign in the live broadcast room, and really didn't care about it. He walked to the book display area to sort it out for a while, making sure that the new books were properly placed and the vacancies left by the book just now were filled, and then returned to the cashier to start business.

There are a total of twelve cameras in the live broadcast room, which are divided into two groups at this time, one facing the road outside the French window, and the other facing the store.

Customers have already appeared on the road outside the store. From the live broadcast screen, they are all identical red figures.

Because they have not yet entered the store, these figures are exactly the same in shape and size, and there are no digital signs on their heads.

Lu Yao has placed road signs on the roads that must be taken from the seventh and ninth districts to the store in advance to inform the island guests that the store will have a live broadcast today.

Carney, Del and the twin brothers walked to the door of the bookstore together and looked up at the sign on the door.

Del was about to reach out to press the red dot on the sign, and Carney stopped him: "Really?"

The sign said to press the red button to enter the store, and the system will automatically assign a permanent digital sign.

This thing is useless and does not affect them. It is just convenient for the audience in the live broadcast room to distinguish the customers in the store.

It doesn't matter if the customer does not want to receive the digital tag. Going directly into the store does not affect normal shopping.

From the live broadcast interface, it is just a red little man without any special mark.

Carney tends to go directly into the store. He doesn't want any digital tags.

At the moment when Del hesitated, Xi walked up and pressed the red dot. He pushed the door into the store with the number one tag on his head, and turned back to greet Yuan: "Hurry up, I'll go ask what the small gifts are."

Lu Yao explained through the sign that there are cameras in the store for Guandao's guests, and made it clear that entry will be strictly coded and their privacy information will not be disclosed.

They were given the right to choose whether to receive a digital tag when entering the store, but for customers who were willing to cooperate with the live broadcast to receive a digital tag, the store also prepared a small gift for them.

Del followed Carney and did not receive the digital tag in the end.

Yuan followed Xi into the store, pressed the red button, and received the red number 2 digital tag.

Xi walked straight to the cashier after entering the store and greeted the owner familiarly: "Owner, what is the small gift?"

A group of cameras in the live broadcast area not far away were aimed at the cashier, and the native store owner and the criminal customer on the island met.

Because the coding program optimized the picture, the mechanical body features of the customer could not be seen, but compared with the "one-size-fits-all" coding in the usual live broadcast, the picture was refreshing and clear.

When the red men first appeared, they were all cute three-headed. After entering the store, with the owner, a petite native human, as a reference, the four red men seemed to be at least one head taller than the owner, like four high walls surrounding the owner.

At the moment when the owner and the criminal guest met, a viewer in the live broadcast room took a screenshot and shared this link.

In less than ten seconds, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room began to soar, from 1,200 to 1,500, 100, 200, 300, 500... until it soared to nearly 4,000, and the speed of the number of viewers gradually slowed down.

[Wild Star No. 2047: I just arrived, what's going on? Is this the live broadcast of the store in the eighth district of Guandao? ]

[Wild Star No. 2455: I heard that the new store in the eighth district of Guandao has started live streaming. How come there is a native human? Or is it a new mechanical bionic skin? ]

...

[Wild Star No. 3: The female native human with golden ornaments on her ears is the store owner. Those red mosaic figures are all criminals. Are they really here to buy books? Why do I feel like they are going to take action? ]

[Wild Star No. 497: She is really brave! The criminals in Guandao are not ordinary criminals, they are all high-spirit robots. I don’t think she looks like a native human with high spirits. Don’t be like the last store owner, who was lured and deceived by criminals and got into trouble. ]

[Wild Star No. 3059: The design of this live streaming room is very strange. The store can only accommodate four guests. There are too few seats. ]

[Wild Star No. 9: There were not many people watching at the beginning, so it was not so crowded. 】

【Wild Star No. 79: Stop arguing, look at what's going on over there! 】

...

At the cashier counter, Lu Yao bent down and took out a transparent rectangular gift lottery box, and tore open two decks of cards with random gifts written on them in front of the customers, a total of 300 cards.

The cards are made of special materials, both sides are black, and the content on the cards cannot be seen, and they cannot be penetrated by mechanical eye scanning.

Lu Yao put the two decks of cards into the lottery box, shook them vigorously, and gestured to the twin brothers: "Please draw a gift card."

The twin brothers were quite surprised. The owner always designed some unimportant small processes to be interesting.

They had expected a small gift of about the size of a pack of toilet paper, but it turned out to be such an interesting little game with a bit of luck, which was very motivating.

Xi took a small step forward: "I'll go first."

The six sides of the lottery box were transparent, and it was placed under the sight of countless mechanical eyes and thousands of online spectators.

Xi reached out from the small opening on the top of the lottery box, and his arm moved, and the cards at the bottom of the box began to rotate.

He flipped it with his fingertips and took out a black card.

There was a layer of black film on the front of the card. Xi pinched the edge of a corner and gently tore it open.

【A 20% discount coupon for a book】

Xi tilted his head to look at Lu Yao: "What do you mean?"

Lu Yao teased: "You're very lucky. It means that next time you come to buy books, you can use this gift card to buy it at a 20% discount."

Yuan was a little excited: "20% discount? That means if we want to buy "Piao", it only costs 160,000?" Lu Yao

nodded, and called Yuan to draw the card as well.

Del turned around and walked towards the door.

He finally understood that the owner was not only evil-minded, but also crazy.

It's just a number tag, can't he get it!!!

Carney didn't say anything and went out with Del.

Then they entered the store with number tags three and four.

The customer who just came in heard that he could enter the lottery by picking up a number tag, so he obediently pressed the red button on the sign at the door.

Carney and Del went back into the store to draw prizes. Yuan and Xi had already finished drawing and walked towards the new book exhibition area.

Del drew a 10% discount card and he was also very happy.

Carney drew a small gift, a thick A5-sized notebook and three oil-based pens.

The two also walked towards the new book exhibition area and joined the twin brothers.

Carney asked as soon as he came over: "What did Yuan draw?"

Xi was even more excited than Yuan: "A free card."

Carney was stunned for a moment and blinked his eyes: "No way?"

Xi: "I just confirmed with Lu Yao that Piao also accepts free orders. But only one book can be free at a time." Books

with multiple volumes such as The Count of Monte Cristo and Journey to the West only accept single-volume free orders.

Del: "Which one are you going to buy?"

The most expensive book on the shelf is "Floating". This book has been on the shelf for several days, but no prisoner has bought it yet. Even Del is afraid to buy it.

Yuan held a new book in his hand and said without looking up: "The best deal is to buy "Floating" and rent it out to make money. It's faster than operating a sewing machine."

"Floating" is such a big book, it costs at least 5,000 Star Coins to rent it for one night.

Yuan planned to collect 20 book bags as soon as possible and go to the store owner to exchange for seasoning.

The boring life of a prisoner seemed to have suddenly become strangely hopeful.

Xi held up the new book with a light green cover in his hand: "I used the 20% discount card to buy this one."

The new book that had just been put on the shelves was called "Flowers for Algernon".

Xi had just roughly flipped through the book. The content of the book was actually not in line with his usual preferences. He was a little out of control when flipping through it, and the edges of the pages were wrinkled in several places.

This was a book that made him feel painful to read, but he was inexplicably addicted to it and decided to buy it back immediately.

The original price of this book was 50,000 star coins, and after a 20% discount, it only cost 40,000. The two brothers pooled their money to make it just right.

The gap between Europe and Africa is too big. A book worth 200,000 star coins was free, and both Del and Carney felt hit hard.

During the half-hour break, customers kept coming from the Ninth District and walked into the bookstore in groups.

The scene that the live audience expected of the criminals beating the owner did not happen.

In this small bookstore, everyone seemed to be well-educated, virtuous and polite.

The red mosaic figures representing sin lined up at the cashier to draw gift cards, and then dispersed to the book display area to choose the books they liked. Some people put a large pile of books in book baskets and hid in the reading room to read quietly. The gift cards

caused a lot of discussion among the guests, and the new books on the shelves were very popular with the guests.

The timer rang again, and the red mosaic figures left one after another.

Lu Yao did not return to the live broadcast area immediately.

Because she had just sold a lot of books, the shelves were a little empty. She counted them and went to the warehouse to restock them.

After restocking the shelves, she pushed the cart to pick up the trial books scattered in the reading room.

The number of real-time online viewers in the unattended live broadcast room has exceeded 5,000, and the message board area is discussing heatedly -

[Wild Star No. 497: The little red man No. 6 hesitated in front of the bookshelf for a long time, but finally bought that poetry collection. ]

[Wild Star No. 3600: No. 19 must have been operating a sewing machine for many years. I saw that he bought many books. ]

[Wild Star No. 4079: Damn it! Even criminals are so rich, am I the only one who can't afford to buy books? ]

[Wild Star No. 5566: I'm really jealous. The shop owner just introduced the books in the virtual live broadcast room. When I saw the price, I laughed and said, "Only fools buy it." It turns out that there are so many rich guys in prison. I laughed and cried...】

【Wild Star No. 19: This live broadcast room is interesting. Watching the celebrity brother choose and buy books is more interesting than watching the game live broadcast. 】

【Wild Star No. 79: The lucky draw of 11111111 is also very interesting. I wonder if there is a lucky draw for online book purchases? 】

【Wild Star No. 3: District 8 really found a good resident this time. It's so interesting! ! ! 】

【Wild Star No. 3333: Has anyone really placed an order? I want to watch the live broadcast of the packaging in the afternoon. 】

【Wild Star 4000: 11111111】

...

In the office of the eighth district management director, the secretaries and jailers looked at the heated discussion and various wish messages in the live broadcast room, and recalled the previous live broadcasts, which seemed unreal.

0877: "I thought it was over, but there are people who like this style of live broadcast..."

0816: "Everything is afraid of comparison. After using the coding plug-in to distinguish the guests, the picture is indeed much clearer. I seem to understand what the owner said about 'interestingness'."

0829: "No one dares to challenge the store owner. I remember when I was in District 6, I didn't see those guys so obedient."

0816: "You can't beat them, and if they obey you, you can draw gift cards. Iron fist in the left hand, candy in the right hand, this store owner looks young, but he really has those guys under control."

0815: "If the live broadcast goes smoothly, there will be more and more things to do in the store. Does she plan to run the store alone?"

...

Several secretaries turned their heads and looked at 0815, as if it was time to discuss the matter of adding new employees with the store owner.

The management of Kanjima is strict, and the addition of new employees to the store must be strictly screened.

In the past, the Chamber of Commerce in District 8 took the initiative to bring this up with the management office, but Lu Yao seemed to have completely forgotten about it, and they had to remind him.

...

One of the new tasks released by the system is to accumulate 100 million points of popularity through the live broadcast room within 32 days. As long as there are people watching, the popularity will rise.

In addition, completed orders, operating income, gifts, and discussion heat in the message area will be converted into popularity and entered into the task progress calculation panel.

Lu Yao experimented for a whole morning, and it was similar to what she expected. The bookstore's live broadcast room did not rely so much on the anchor to control the scene at all times.

There were often customers coming in and out of the virtual live broadcast room. When they were selecting books, they acted as "shopping guides" for the customers watching the live broadcast, guiding others to understand the content of the books.

The timer rang, and a customer came to the store to choose a book, and the audience in the live broadcast room began to find fun for themselves.

The customers entering the store were marked with a coding plug-in, and the discussion in the live broadcast room was very enthusiastic.

Especially during the lunch break, several jailers came to the store one after another.

The black jailer and the red criminal were divided into two reading rooms, without disturbing each other.

The audience in the live broadcast room began to fill in the blanks and had a heated discussion in the message area.

The lunch break was over, and the bookstore, which had been bustling for a while, became quiet again. Lu

Yao checked the backstage. The results of the live broadcast for a whole morning plus a lunch break were not bad, with 37 online orders.

She printed out the order, took the books according to the delivery list, pushed them to the live broadcast area, fulfilled her promise in the morning, and began to pack the packages live.

This type of live broadcast is generally called decompression live broadcast. There is no hardcore content, but because it is a package for online guests, it establishes an interactive connection with the live audience.

Lu Yao just sat down when a gift notification suddenly popped up on the live broadcast screen.
