An expert can tell whether something is good or not with just one look.
In the card refill room in the card pool, Ke Jin finally saw with his own eyes how a real card master works——
Completely different from himself, who was treading calligraphy on the table like a poor primary school student, after Bai Fan got the blank card, he first observed it intently for a few minutes, and then easily picked up the colored crystal pen on the table. His slender fingers moved the crystal pen smoothly on the lines of the blank card. The energy of the crystal sand pool continuously flowed out from the tip of the pen, just right to depict and fill all the blank lines.
In just a few minutes, a colorful card was born from the pen, and then turned into a fluorescent shadow and dissipated like smoke, while quicksand had already appeared in the card quicksand bottle hanging on the wall.
"As expected...professional."
Ke Jin was amazed and felt that renewing his own card was as hard as doing hard labor, while Bai Fan's card renewal was as beautiful as an artist painting a picture. Why was there such a big gap between people!
"It's just a minor, not a major." Bai Fan corrected.
He majored in card making, but the card renewal process is not difficult, so card makers will take it as a minor. But minoring does not mean mastering. In their college, students majoring in card renewal can control the crystal pen to renew several blank cards at the same time. Whether it is the time spent or the crystal sand energy used, it is much lower than that of non-professionals. The efficiency is simply astonishing. That is called professionalism.
"It's already very professional for me." Ke Jin watched as Bai Fan finished outlining another blank card, and was simply in awe of his efficiency. "The first time I renewed my card, it took me three hours to finish one! I felt like my eyes were going blind."
"Three hours?" Bai Fan repeated, "Was that the first card you renewed?"
"Yeah." Ke Jin nodded with lingering fear, "It happened two or three days ago."
A hint of surprise flashed across Bai Fan's indifferent eyes, and he looked at Ke Jin a few more times.
“Did anyone guide you at that time?”
"I taught myself by reading the operation manual." Of course, this operation manual was distributed by the system. In addition to card renewal, it also contains card making content. Unfortunately, Ke Jin could not understand the card making part at all.
Bai Fan was confused by the word "operation manual", but thinking that it might be a self-study textbook or something like that, he didn't ask any more questions.
"Maybe you are very talented." Bai Fan said matter-of-factly, "Many people can't even draw out the energy of the crystal pen when they renew their cards for the first time, let alone fill in the lines. It only took three hours to renew a blank card. This result is very good."
"Really?" Ke Jin was quite surprised. He saw that Bai Fan claimed that he was not a professional, but he renewed the card so easily. He thought that renewing the card was actually a skill that was easy to master.
"If you have time, maybe you can apply to the Card Master College for further studies." Bai Fan suggested sincerely.
Ke Jin had indeed had this idea before, but now he had neither time nor money, so this kind of long-term investment had to be put on the back burner, so he said vaguely.
"Well... let's talk about it later."
Although he was unable to go to a professional college for further studies, Ke Jin observed more carefully when Bai Fan renewed his card later.
Ke Jin was not a top student when he was in school, but his grades were always good because he had a good attitude towards learning, and he paid more attention to learning methods than rote memorization, and was good at drawing inferences from one example. Although he came to a strange world and came into contact with all kinds of subversive new things, his learning ideas and methods can be continued. Now that there is someone to demonstrate, of course he can learn as much as he can.
Bai Fan was very careful and noticed Ke Jin's actions, so he slowed down the action of renewing the card so that Ke Jin could see it more clearly; if the other party raised any questions, he would also answer them with all his heart.
Because of this "teaching session", by the time the quicksand in the three card bottles was mostly full, a whole morning had passed. Bai Fan thought this efficiency was very slow, but Ke Jin felt like he was riding a rocket, much faster than he expected!
"Stay for lunch." Ke Jin felt bad for making the other person work for free for the whole morning. "If you don't want to charge me, at least let me have a meal."
Bai Fan thought about it, nodded and agreed.
***
It takes some time to prepare lunch. Bai Fan stayed in the card pool to continue filling the last gaps in the three quicksand bottles, while Ke Jin returned to the ground first.
When Ke Jin entered the room, he saw Ou Nuo flipping through old newspapers from Qixing City a few days ago out of boredom. When he saw him return to the room, the boy tilted his head towards the table next to him with an expressionless face.
"That thing of yours keeps beeping. It's so noisy."
The old communicator that Ke Jin bought for 100 star coins was lying on the table. The indicator light on the upper right corner kept flashing red, indicating that there were unread messages. Ke Jin picked it up and was shocked by the long list of missed calls. Most of them were unfamiliar numbers, and there was only one familiar number, from Xiaobai's secretary - the other party called him seven times intermittently.
Thinking that something big might have happened, Ke Jin quickly called Secretary Xiaobai back.
***
When the communicator rang, Bai Ran was secretly putting a bear biscuit into his mouth.
Although it was forbidden to eat snacks during work hours, she couldn't help it! And there were many people like her who secretly ate snacks in the card pool today. After all, since work in the morning, the topic of heated discussion among colleagues was -
Wow, the snacks I got from Xiao Ke yesterday were so delicious!!!
Because the yard was very dusty at the time, after everyone drew the cards, basically no one checked the goods on the spot. After all, no one wanted to open their mouths and swallow a mouthful of dirt. After returning home in the evening, some people materialized the cards and happily tasted the three snacks.
This was a great experience - most of the people who couldn't wait to try the snacks that night were foodies who were quite particular about food. After taking a few bites, they all made the same exclamation in their respective homes -
Damn, this tastes damn delicious!
Of course, this evaluation is comparative. After all, R cards are definitely much tastier than N cards. However, the N cards they had drawn in other card pools were almost the quality that they had to throw into the trash. But this snack card pool is different. N cards are also delicious! R cards have even reached the level of SR cards! As for SR cards... they have never drawn SSR gourmet cards, so they guess that the taste of this snack SR card must be no less than that of SSR cards in other card pools! !
After experiencing a wonderful night of snacks, these foodies couldn’t wait to share their experience with others the next day after work. As a result, many employees of the card pool bureau who had not yet tried the snacks also tried the snacks they drew yesterday with some doubts, and then -
Holy shit!! This tastes damn delicious!!
So, in one good morning, the entire card pool was overwhelmed. A group of adults were holding snack bags with their mouths full of crumbs. If they drew a circulating card, they would inevitably be "begged" to share it.
Among the cards Bai Ran drew, there was an SR Animal Biscuit circulation card. When others found out, it was immediately and inhumanely divided up. She fought desperately to protect the food and only had a small half left. She had planned to eat a big meal when she got home from get off work, but she could not resist the temptation during work and kept putting one or two cookies into her mouth from time to time. Soon the snack bag was empty.
Wow, SR cards are so delicious, I can’t imagine how amazing the taste of SSR cards is!
Bai Ran couldn't help but think of his cousin, Bai Fan, who had drawn an SSR circulation card! If only he had opened the snacks and given him some! What a regret!
Of course, if this little white secretary knew that Bai Fan’s sister Bai Youyou was directly stimulated to come out of her autistic state because of the deliciousness of the SSR card, I don’t know what she would think...
The communicator on the table kept ringing. Bai Ran chewed the biscuits in his mouth and took a look.
"!!"
The name displayed on the screen made Secretary Xiaobai quickly swallow the snack in his mouth and nimbly picked up the communicator.
After the call was connected, the young man's gentle voice, tinged with confusion, was soon heard from the other end.
"Secretary Xiaobai, do you have something to talk to me about?"
“Something happened!” Bai Ran said seriously, “I just want to say this on behalf of all our colleagues…Ahhhhhhh, we are all going to die!!”
"???"
Ke Jin listened attentively for a long time before he understood from Xiaobai's secretary's incoherent and excited narration - uh, it seemed like he was praising the snacks in his card pool for being delicious?
Well, although I feel that the other party’s description is quite exaggerated, I am still quite happy...
"Thank you." Ke Jin finally found a chance to interrupt the other party's barrage of praise, "Haha, come often when you have time. You are most welcome to come again."
"Of course, of course!" Bai Ran nodded repeatedly, "We have decided to organize a group to go to your place again this weekend. We will charter a car then! Remember to reserve a spot for us!"
Reserve a seat? Uh, like a restaurant, make a reservation? But...
Ke Jin turned around and looked at the empty yard. It had been a whole morning and there was not a single new customer coming to draw a card. It was so popular that they had to make an appointment or something... Secretary Xiaobai really thought too much.
"Don't worry, you can draw as soon as you arrive. There are plenty of vacancies." Ke Jin said cheerfully.
"By the way, my colleague wants me to help ask when you will launch new products?" Secretary Xiaobai asked expectantly.
"Uh..." Ke Jin immediately thought of the two new cards that were still to be developed in the card making room, "I do want to release two more new products, but I may need to find a card maker first..."
"Card maker? Then you can look for Bai Fan!" Secretary Xiao Bai immediately recommended his cousin. "Although he hasn't graduated yet, his card making skills are very good. He used to stay in Aquarius during the summer vacation to find a job in the card pool. But he is back this time and it seems that he hasn't decided where to work yet. You can go ask him!"
"Bai Fan? Actually, he..."
"Don't be afraid! Although Xiaofan looks cold, he actually has a warm heart. I'll send you his number in a moment. If you two communicate well, he will definitely agree!"
"Well, actually I..."
"Oh! Never mind! Just wait! I'll go talk to him myself!"
Then all Ke Jin could hear was a series of beeping sounds after the communication was interrupted.
“…”
Oh my god, this guy is too enthusiastic. He didn’t even have time to tell the other party that Bai Fan is actually right here with him!
Ke Jin silently put away the communicator, turned around and saw Ou Nuo looking at him sideways with his hands folded and a haughty look on his face.
"How is it? I said the card pool I first pulled was not ordinary, right?"
Secretary Xiaobai's excited praise just now was so loud that Oloy could hear it clearly over here.
"It's unusual, it's unusual..." After spending these days together, Ke Jin has gotten to know this kid's temper a little bit, and he immediately stroked his fur. Sure enough, the other party showed a satisfied expression of "this is good enough". If the other party had a tail, Ke Jin felt that Ounuo's little tail would definitely be up to the sky.
But what Ke Jin didn't dare to say was——
Secretary Xiaobai's expression was so excited that it was as if he had taken stimulants... After the first draw bonus was added to this card pool, it would not produce ordinary snacks, but strange contraband, right?
