Chapter 196 Selling Players’ Lives at a Low Price
At night, each breeder would go back to their own room to feed and water their white-feathered birds.
Since there is no mobile phone signal in the game, the only entertainment activity for the breeder may be to interact with the white-feathered bird he raises and find ways to raise it well.
When Zhen Jinli was stroking the white-feathered bird's head, he suddenly felt that there was something wrong with the bird's body shape.
She took out her instant messenger and contacted Su Yan and Chen Ji.
"Brother Su, Jiuyi, have you noticed that the white-feathered bird seems to have grown a little bigger?"
Su Yan looked at the white-feathered bird happily pecking at the ginkgo nuts and nodded silently.
"Indeed, and its appetite seems to have increased as well."
Based on the size of the white-feathered bird, each of them collected about 30 to 40 ginkgo nuts, which was enough for the white-feathered bird to eat for a day and a half.
Judging from the amount of food it ate yesterday, the white-feathered bird should still have about ten ginkgo nuts left.
But today, the food is almost gone.
Chen Ji also nodded and said, "Well, I told it today that I was learning about anesthesia, and it seemed very scared."
"Are we going to use the anesthesia skills we learned on them?"
Hearing Chen Ji say this, Zhen Jinli tried to report to his own white-feathered bird.
"Little guy, I went to learn anesthesia skills this afternoon. I feel a little strange. Why do breeders need to learn this?"
As expected, the white-feathered bird shook its wings, quickly distanced itself from Zhen Jinli, and huddled in the corner, shivering.
Are you so scared?
Zhen Jinli stretched out her hand towards the white-feathered bird and said, "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you."
Perhaps because Zhen Jinli's voice was quite gentle, the white-feathered bird gradually let down its guard and tentatively moved towards her.
Finally, the white-feathered bird flapped its wings and stood on Zhen Jinli's arm, put its head on her shoulder, and looked at her pitifully.
Zhen Jinli touched the white-feathered bird's head with some reluctance and comforted it.
"Although I don't know what you are afraid of, I will do my best to protect you."
When Su Yan heard the situation between Zhen Jinli and Shen Ji during the instant messaging, he looked thoughtfully at the white-feathered bird he was raising.
"You dare to rub against me?" Su Yan said nonchalantly with a mischievous smile on his lips.
"Do you believe I can use an anesthetic needle on you?"
As expected, the white-feathered bird that was trying to get into Su Yan's arms trembled all over and retreated away from him upon hearing his words.
When Su Yan saw that the white-feathered bird actually began to avoid him, his mood instantly improved. He no longer paid attention to it, covered himself with the quilt, and went to sleep.
The white-feathered bird shivering in the corner: "."
I feel like crying but I have no tears QAQ, why did it choose such a human being in the first place?
He looked like a gentle and handsome man, but turned out to be a cold-blooded and ruthless guy!
The next day, after all the keepers practiced how to give the anesthetic injection again, Sister Hong told all the keepers.
"Everyone can practice the new project tomorrow."
"The new project is to practice drawing blood. No one here is afraid of blood, right?"
Zhen Jinli and his group were even more shocked.
What the hell?
Blood draw?
Zhen Jinli, Su Yan, and Chen Ji looked at each other, all hesitant about whether they should continue to talk about this matter with Bai Yu Niao after returning home in the evening.
"My advice is, don't tell Bai Yu Niao about this yet."
While eating, Zhen Jinli had a brief chat with his two teammates.
"After all, last night, when Bai Yu Niao heard the word anesthesia, he was already very frightened."
"I don't want to exacerbate the white-feathered bird's fear."
Chen Ji pretended to eat while chatting with Zhen Jinli and the others.
"Okay, but now I'm even more curious. If our final experimental subjects are white-feathered birds, why are we practicing blood draws on human breeders?"
"Is it just for us to practice, worried that we might hurt the white-feathered bird if we operate it improperly?"
Zhen Jinli shrugged and said, "Maybe."
"Anyway, our treatment here is so good, it seems like we're being kept as pets. It's foreseeable that the White Tower Factory would want to use us for experiments."
Su Yan was quite concerned about the salary and benefits.
"Speaking of which, this factory pays us monthly. According to the game's schedule, we won't even have time to wait until the day our pay is settled."
"Also, I heard that the cost of accommodation in the staff dormitory will be included in the salary, so the actual salary the breeder will receive may only be fifteen gold coins."
Converted into RMB, it is about 45,000 yuan per month.
Zhen Jinli couldn't help but nudge Su Yan with her elbow and said, "Brother Su, I know that as a CEO with an annual income in the billions, you will feel that this salary is too little."
"But we didn't come into the game to get paid."
Su Yan sighed with a complicated expression: "I know, I just feel that the lives of us breeders are really sold at a low price."
According to the routine of survival games, these relatively high rewards should be used to buy their lives.
Zhen Jinli felt a little sad after being reminded by Su Yan.
Tens of thousands of dollars to buy a life?
Perhaps for games, players' lives are just so worthless.
The development costs of the survival game app, the operation of Blue Star Capital, and the listing costs are all for the purpose of plundering the lives of players on Earth.
If you put it in perspective, aren't the lives of these players being sold at a bargain price?
Zhen Jinli seemed touched. She raised her hand and patted Su Yan's shoulder.
"I will definitely find a way to stop the game from continuing to reap the lives of players."
Su Yan lowered his eyes and smiled softly, his smile was as bright as the moon and as gentle as the spring breeze.
"Jiuyi and I believe you will do this, so we follow you into the game again and again, and do our best to cooperate with you."
Zhen Jinli was touched, and after a long time, she asked.
"By the way, have you noticed that the white-feathered bird has grown a lot bigger?"
Su Yan nodded: "Yeah."
Shen Ji said with some worry: “And his appetite has also increased. Fortunately, I picked more than fifty ginkgo nuts today.”
"I'm wondering if I should pick some more tomorrow."
"But there are only so many ginkgo trees there, and as breeders like us go to pick them more and more often, the number of ginkgo nuts has been reduced by almost half."
Zhen Jinli also noticed this: "Then let's go around the cliff again tomorrow and see if there are any other ginkgo trees."
They cannot just pick the fruits from the ginkgo trees in one place. Even if they go to pick them, they have to be evenly distributed and pay attention to the sustainable development of the ecology.
Su Yan glanced at the other breeders eating in the restaurant and suddenly spoke.
"Did you find anything particularly strange?"
