Great shopping street
This copy appeared on each player's personal interface at 7:30 the next morning. At that time, Chu Yun had just finished drinking porridge on the farm. He had nothing to do and was about to read jokes and novels on the forum.
This is a trend that has just started. There are no mobile phones, computers or televisions, and the only amusement park is Happy Farm. However, the probability of applying is still extremely low.
So talented players began to brainstorm and come up with something different on the world forum.
After going through multiple dungeons, survival is no longer difficult. How to spend the long 10 days of leisure time depends on the players themselves.
To keep up with the times, many talented comedians and novelists emerged. Perhaps the emergence of various online cultural products on the forums led to an upgrade. After the upgrade, the forums were no longer limited to text messaging, but now allowed users to tip content creators. There was money to be made! This greatly increased the enthusiasm of creators.
Many players don’t have much money in their pockets and won’t give gold coins as rewards, but there is no shortage of wealthy players in the forum.
Chu Yun is one of the wealthy players.
The serialized novel she is following recently is "My Road to Survival", which is written by a female author who was probably a well-known novelist before she became a gamer. She has a very good writing style, plot, and fragments.
The author magically transforms his own survival experience into a humorous and witty story, while also adding a powerful cheat code and a perfect partner. The cheat code is about fighting against heaven, earth, and the world, which is particularly poignant, while the other half is powerful, intelligent, invincible, and super handsome.
This perfectly caters to the tastes of all readers, so it ranks at the top of the forum, with tens of millions of comments, and many readers leave messages urging for updates.
This author is very good at piqued the readers' interest. She always gets stuck at an intriguing point, which makes people so anxious that they want to catch her and press her on the writing board to update.
Chu Yun would give her a reward after each chapter was read, sometimes 2 gold coins, sometimes 5 gold coins.
There is a ranking list for rewards. According to the speculation of bored players, this author can conservatively estimate that he can earn 100-1000 gold coins every day. Back then, the maximum amount of gold coins earned in highway survival was only 20 per day.
This income is extremely high. The popularity of one article has attracted the enthusiastic follow of other players, and various novels have flourished. At the same time, Chu Yun is also following another short story about family life, but this one has a much smaller number of views and the plot is not as attractive as the first one. She basically rewards 1 gold coin per chapter.
Just as she was immersed in the protagonist's fantastical journey, a mission invitation suddenly popped up above her personal interface. Yes, it wasn't a mission application, but a mission invitation.
"Amazing Commercial Street" Quest Invitation Notice: This dungeon offers various short-term and long-term land rental services to Happy Farm dungeon owners. The rental price is 5 gold coins per square meter per day. First-come, first-served, while stocks last.
Just yesterday, she wondered when the second personal instance would appear, and today it arrived. A personal instance is like a new wave of traffic. Her Happy Farm, with its current land holdings, has already reached capacity. To boost traffic again, she needs to either increase the land area or develop a new instance. She's currently working on increasing the land area, but pursuing both simultaneously would be even better.
Chu Yun only looked for one second and then clicked to agree, and then Chu Yun appeared in another space that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
It felt familiar because it was the same as the initial model of her Happy Farm, but it felt strange because she hadn't seen a land space like this for a long time.
It is called a commercial street, but in fact it is just 5 acres of bare land without even a simple shed. It does not seem to match the name "Great Commercial Street" at all.
Dozens of other players came in at the same time as him, all from different communities. Unlike Chu Yun, they all came in after seeing the task application and competing for their hand speed.
As soon as they came in, they looked around with the same incredible expression as Chu Yun.
A well-dressed young man approached the group with a professional smile. "Hello everyone! I'm the owner of the Commercial Street dungeon. You can call me Mr. Gu. Currently, 'Amazing Commercial Street' offers various land leasing services to the public. If you're interested, please contact me for details."
Seeing that everyone's expressions hadn't recovered yet, he explained kindly, "Don't be fooled by the commercial street's current simplicity. I believe it will grow and prosper in the future. The commercial street has a bright future, and now is the best time to move in. Everyone must seize this opportunity, because once you lose, it will never come again."
I have to say that the owner of this commercial street has a good business mind. Although it is just a piece of bare land, with his good eloquence, he can sell the land at a high price.
Some players began to pout and murmur, "Your rent is a bit too expensive! I'm afraid a day's profit won't be enough to cover the rent."
Other players chimed in, "Yeah, the rent's too expensive. Five gold coins per square meter. What can you do with that? And you call it a commercial street, but it lacks any amenities. Look at Happy Farm, they have TVs, toilets, refrigerators. Could you please offer a lower price, boss?"
The boss also seemed to think that renting out the land like this was a bit of a rip-off, especially since it reminded him of Happy Farm. But he had finally convinced his partner to hand over the land prop card, and he had to meet his partner's sales requirements, so he persisted with his idea:
"Trust me, everyone. The hardware facilities will be ready in the future. Right now, I'm the second person in the community to run a dungeon. Anyone who's been to Happy Farm knows how popular it is. As long as your items sell well, you'll definitely make a profit. I can't guarantee anything else. With me, the price is always the same, and there won't be any bidding or auctions. Everything is done according to the quest you requested. What do you think?"
The players who came here probably took into consideration the player flow and future development, and began to discuss with each other in a low voice.
Mr. Gu didn't mind seeing that everyone was avoiding him. He found Chu Yun, who was quietly observing in the crowd, and walked towards her: "Hello, are you the owner of the Happy Farm dungeon?"
Chu Yun: "Yes."
I have to say, this guy has a pretty good eye.
"I wonder if you're interested in leasing my land. If a farm were to come to the commercial street, the flow of people would be greatly guaranteed in the future."
"Of course, to show my sincerity, the commercial street will maintain long-term cooperation with you. In the future, when the commercial street expands and recruits other players, your opinions will be given priority consideration. What do you think?"
Boss Gu previously founded a foreign trade company from scratch and led the company from nothing to a well-known company both at home and abroad. He has rich experience.
He knew full well how much traffic a good brand could bring. Here, Chu Yun's Happy Farm was well-known and coveted by everyone on the world forums. Happy Farm was that premium brand. His commercial street was empty, so attracting enough players to Happy Farm was essential.
If the Happy Farm is the gimmick, his commercial street will be packed with tourists and develop rapidly. If the Happy Farm is not settled in, the commercial street will develop much more slowly.
Chu Yun also knew that a company's growth and development could not be achieved without the concerted efforts of other partners. Her Happy Farm needed to develop both horizontally and vertically. Furthermore, she wanted to sell Happy Farm products to more people and serve them, so the best way was to leverage the power of others.
Boss Gu saw Su Chuyun remained silent and thought she wanted to refuse. He began to feel uneasy. He looked at Chuyun eagerly for a long time before he heard her say "OK."
Boss Gu, also known as Gu Xinyan, happily extended his hand: "Hello, my name is Gu Xinyan, you can call me Mr. Gu, happy working with you!"
Chu Yun extended his hand and shook it: "My name is Chu Yun, it's a pleasure to work with you."
She rented a total of 100 square meters. Based on 5 gold coins per square meter, it would cost 500 gold coins a day. The lease term is 5 years. After 5 years, the lease can be renewed at the original price and payment will be made on a daily basis.
After exchanging some experiences on copy operation with Boss Gu, Chu Yun left the commercial street. Boss Gu said that the store would officially open at 2 pm, so she had to do some preparations in advance.
The Happy Farm employees saw their boss go out for a while and come back with a big smile on his face. They all wondered if something happy had happened. They were busy greeting the visitor and had no time to check the forum. So they didn't know the second personal copy had appeared.
As expected, Chu Yun asked Xu Dongdong to recruit 12 new employees, 6 of whom would join Happy Farm, and the remaining 6 would be led by 6 veteran employees to open a store on the commercial street. A manager was needed there, and Yu Wenhao volunteered to go there.
I heard from the boss that the farm's sideline business has expanded again. Everyone is very proud. The construction of the farm is inseparable from their contribution. Many people have been with this farm since the beginning when it was only 5 acres of land, until it grew 3-4 times. That feeling is like watching the children you have worked so hard to raise grow up and become famous.
They acted immediately. The land on the commercial street was planned to be 20 meters long and 5 meters wide, which was just enough to set up two rows of stalls in front and behind. The empty space in the middle was left for employees to store goods and take temporary rest.
The staple food, vegetables and fruits on the farm had to be packed in bamboo baskets and each one had to be taken over. The chickens and ducks had to be placed in cages and taken over, and several buckets of fish had to be brought over as well.
As a result, the bamboo baskets on the farm were insufficient, so Chu Yun sent a message to Uncle Zhang and ordered 50. Although Uncle Zhang and his grandson did not work on the farm, Chu Yun placed many orders with him, and was busy every day, earning more money than working on the farm.
After sending the personal information of the 12 new and old employees to Boss Gu, the task popped up. Everyone clicked to confirm and then arrived at the "Amazing Commercial Street".
Boss Gu has measured the land on the ground with a special dye, arranged it neatly, planned it rationally, and even left aisles for players to pass through.
The spot reserved for Chu Yun was near the tourist check-in point, a prime location in front of the game, commanding a premium price. As expected of a businessman, he employed every possible means to retain high-quality customers. Chu Yun was delighted by this subtle flattery.
The new employees led the old employees and started to get busy. They went in and out of the copy several times, bringing goods, stools and various small items.
There are also many more players setting up stalls nearby. It seems that everyone has a lot of things stored up and wants to exchange them for some gold coins.
Soon it was 12 noon and Shengnan came in. She brought everyone today's lunch, which included chicken with mushrooms, lettuce with oyster sauce, and steamed sea bass. The lunch was very rich. The players setting up stalls around them became much stiffer the moment they opened their lunch boxes, and they looked over here from time to time.
"You, you are the merchants of Happy Farm, right?" Someone finally couldn't help but come over and ask, staring at everyone's lunch boxes and his throat couldn't help but move up and down. When he came over, other players who were paying attention also came over.
Yu Wenhao: "Yeah, yes."
"Then the prices of these things are the same as on the farm. Are there large quantities? I want to buy some too."
"The price is the same, we limit the quantity to ensure that everyone can buy it." Yu Wenhao said as he took out a handwritten price tag and prepared to stick it on the bamboo basket.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the unit price on the label. It was not only not expensive, but also quite cheap.
"Hehe, then leave me an old hen and a carp. I plan to make soup for my wife to nourish her." said the visitor.
"I want one too, I want one too!"
......
"Okay, we'll open at 2 o'clock sharp. Everyone come over then."
After everyone finished their meal, they closed their eyes and rested for an hour. At 2 o'clock, a large number of players swarmed in. Boss Gu set the task to 2,000 people per hour, from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm every day, 24,000 people a day.
As soon as they came in, they rushed to the conspicuous Happy Farm stall. It had a prominent location and excellent goods, and they had to seize the opportunity to buy something good within an hour, no more, no less.
Chu Yun handed over the management of the business to Yu Wenhao. She planned to walk around the commercial street and buy some necessary things.
I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here again.
Boss Gu is very good at selling dog meat under the guise of mutton. His name sounds impressive, but in reality he is short, poor and ugly. However, it still cannot shake his position as the second largest in the community.
Except for Chu Yun's place which was a little tidier and more formal, the other vendors just rolled up their bedding and moved in. In order to make more profits, everyone rented 1 square meter. However, Chu Yun did find a lot of small things.
A whiteboard is perfect for writing down product prices. A calculator is for employees to do their accounting. Badminton rackets are brought to the community for employees to play with. There's also a selection of wild fruits and dried meat...
"Selling medicine! Selling medicine!"
"I have 20 years of experience as a chief physician at a People's Hospital. I'm proficient in treating colds and coughs, typhoid fever, miscellaneous diseases, back pain, and general health care!"
The voice sounded familiar. Chu Yun looked inside through the crowded crowd and saw Dr. Song, the same Dr. Song who had exchanged a land prop card with her in the business game for an extremely expensive automatic medicine dispenser, a space backpack and a large amount of medicine.
At this moment, he was sitting behind a wooden table and examining an older female player in front of the table. He wore gold-rimmed glasses and had a stethoscope hanging around his neck. There was a medical record book on the table and an ultra-thin scanner behind the table, which looked like a high-tech product obtained in City A.
"Doctor, I've been feeling dizzy and dizzy lately. Do I have a tumor in my brain?"
Dr. Song listened carefully with his stethoscope and took her pulse. He replied, "There's nothing wrong with your brain. It's just that you've been suffering from malnutrition and depression lately, which has led to a bit of anemia. My suggestion is that you try to get a spot on the Happy Farm application and buy some chickens and ducks to nourish yourself. Also, get more sleep, exercise, and stop dwelling on random things."
"Doctor, am I really alright? What does that machine of yours do? Can I use it?"
Doctor Song stroked his glasses and said soothingly, "I guarantee with my career that you will have no problems. This machine of mine is very valuable and should only be used if you have a serious illness."
"Trust the doctor, you just think too much."
With the support of other players, the female player slowly stood up, but to feel at ease, she still asked the doctor to prescribe a box of glucose oral solution for her.
Chu Yun saw that Dr. Song only asked for 3 gold coins for a box of medicine, and did not ask for an exorbitant price due to its scarcity.
"Doctor, it's my turn, it's my turn. I had mild diabetes before playing the game, and I feel like my symptoms have become much more serious since I came into the game. Do you have insulin or something?" The player felt a little discouraged at the end of his words. Insulin is not an ordinary medicine, and it is not easy to get it.
After taking his pulse, Dr. Song said, "Let me examine you first."
He turned on the ultra-thin scanner behind him, pointed the scanner gun at the patient, and soon a series of medical terms appeared on the screen.
He flipped through it and said to the player seriously, "Well, your diabetes has indeed worsened."
Diabetes is not a simple disease. It is extremely painful when it occurs, especially in this game world with scarce resources. Therefore, people around look at me with sympathy.
Doctor Song: "However, regular medication can still slow down the symptoms. I happen to have a batch of insulin injections here. I'll prescribe a few for you."
"Really? Thank you, doctor." The player was almost in tears of gratitude. "But how much gold coins does the doctor want?"
Doctor Song glanced up, then lowered his head to write down his thoughts in his notebook. "I haven't found the raw materials for synthesizing insulin yet, so this medicine might be a bit expensive. 20 gold coins each. You can take a few first and use them sparingly."
The player was relieved: "Oh, that's good, then let's take two first."
Seeing that Dr. Song was busy, Chu Yun left his stall and wandered around. When he returned to his original place, he heard Dr. Song's call: "Chu Yun! It's really you."
He saw Chu Yun during the diagnosis, but she was surrounded by many players at the time, so she disappeared before he could see her clearly.
Chu Yun: "Long time no see, how are you doing recently?"
Doctor Song: "That's good. Thanks to you, I have those medical tools."
After saying this, Dr. Song hesitated for a moment.
"Just tell me what you have to say."
Seeing that Chu Yun was a straightforward person, Song Ming did not hide anything: "Chu Yun, I want to do a business with you."
When Chu Yun heard the word "business", he couldn't help but raise his head.
"Don't worry, I need your help this time. Didn't you help me get the universal medicine machine in the last instance? I'm short of some common medicine ingredients. Don't you have a Happy Farm? I was wondering if you could grow some Chinese herbal medicine later. It's very important to me."
After observation, Song Ming is a good doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded. She also wants to indirectly help the weak groups through others.
So, Chu Yun nodded and said, "I can agree to your request, but I haven't found the seeds of Chinese herbal medicine yet. I'll contact you when I find them!"
Upon hearing this, Dr. Song excitedly shook Chu Yun's hand and said, "On behalf of all medical workers, thank you!"
Chu Yun and Song Ming added each other's contact information and then left. A new patient came to see him, and he said he urgently needed to hire an assistant as he could not handle it alone.
Yu Wenhao was in charge of the stall in the commercial street, so she was completely relieved. She had nothing to do here, so she returned to Happy Farm.
Beneath the grapevines, on a rustic wooden coffee table, Chu Yun took a sip of tea and ate a piece of melon. A gentle breeze blew across her face, and the air was filled with the aroma of fruits and melons.
Looking at another group of players logging in not far away, they were dressed in the same, shabby and simple clothes.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation. Let’s not consider housing and transportation for now. The farm needs to develop into clothing in the future.
She wrote on the paper: Clothing—weaving machinery? Cotton?
There are also Chinese herbs, land prop cards, and more vegetables and fruits.
She vaguely remembered that she had obtained cotton seeds in the highway copy. She searched in the space ring and found it in a corner.
She gave the seeds to her employees to plant. Now that she had the raw materials, all she needed were workers and machines.
