Over the next few days, Chen Yang continued to improve his life on the micro-world.
He made himself a hay-woven garment and a pair of decent slippers out of bamboo.
Most importantly, he actually found potatoes near the cabin! A whole patch of potatoes.
This is a major discovery. Potatoes are a very important food, and they can also be grown.
However, potato planting takes time, and I don't know if planting them counts as completing the task, or if I have to wait for them to sprout.
In short, while harvesting a good amount of potatoes, Chen Yang also started cultivating a vegetable garden near the cabin. Lacking experience in this area, he could only follow the methods he found online, taking it one step at a time.
In addition to cultivating a vegetable garden, Chen Yang also began to build fences, both to prevent animals from invading and for the purpose of keeping them in enclosures.
This is no small project, and Chen Yang, with only one stubborn blade, will probably need a long time to complete it. He wants to make a sturdy, reliable, and beautiful one, so that it will be done once and for all and won't need to be redone next time.
His little traps had been quite successful these past few days, catching a pheasant and a small bird. However, one of the traps, badly damaged beyond recognition, caught his attention.
This must have been an encounter with a large animal. There were many traces at the scene, and he couldn't accurately determine what kind of animal it was, but those traces couldn't have been made by a pheasant or a rabbit.
Chen Yang spends some time each day learning how to use a spear and also watches videos online about how to deal with various wild animals.
Now is not the time to rush things. He needs to accumulate experience, especially in recognizing plants, animals, and natural changes, which is very important.
Fortunately, it hasn't rained in the past few days. With a stable water supply, he doesn't need to pray for rain.
The European prince has grown a bit in the past few days and can now roam around freely.
As the European Emperor grew stronger, Chen Yang couldn't help but start to consider a very important question.
Is the "European Emperor" a dog or not?
So far, he hasn't heard a single bark from the dog, only whimpering sounds, which make it difficult for him to identify.
As the puppies grew larger over the past few days, Chen Yang began to suspect that they were not ordinary puppies, but possibly wolves.
Could it be that my name, "Emperor of Luck," truly reflects my lucky streak, and I've somehow managed to snag a wolf cub?
Now that I think about how arrogant the European Emperor was towards that gray wolf that day, he seems a bit more than he appears.
Before I arrived, the European Emperor had been confronting the gray wolf for a while, and the fire hadn't blocked the door. With the wolf's intelligence, it should have known to go around and enter.
"Could it be that you are a descendant of the legendary wolf king, possessing the power to intimidate these ordinary wolves?"
Chen Yang stroked the little head of the European Emperor and said, but seeing the cute way the European Emperor rubbed against him, and thinking about how it wagged its tail every time it begged him for food, he had great doubts about this idea.
Are the descendants of the wolf king really so spineless?
It is said that a wolf's tail does not stick up like a dog's, but the tail of the European king is too short to be easily identified.
"It's alright. Even if you're a dog, you're still the king of dogs. A Tibetan Mastiff can fight a wolf king, so we can't be inferior."
"Waaah," the lucky one responded in a childish voice.
Chen Yang decided that once the European Emperor grew a little older, he would raise it well. Even if it wasn't a wolf, it couldn't be worse than a wolf.
The trial operation of Weijie Inn went very smoothly. Apart from that one negative review, the customer feedback was good. Several of Chen Yang's fellow travelers gave it good reviews, and even Wang Bing's friends didn't have many complaints.
On the last day, Microworld Inn received another negative review, and the language was extremely malicious, describing the inn's environment and service as completely worthless.
However, having learned from their previous experience, none of them were very angry this time.
"They have to place an order to give us a bad review. They're basically giving us money. If we run our business well, genuinely positive reviews will bring up the rating. I have plenty of time and money to waste on them."
Chen Yang said with a cold laugh. At the same time, an idea arose in his mind: if he implemented his plan, he wouldn't need to care about opinions at all.
"The God of Wealth Yang is truly remarkable," Li Su'er said, her eyes shining.
Wang Bing also came over with a USB drive.
"This time I was more careful. I figured out who gave us the bad review, and I checked the surveillance footage. Once I have connections in Hangzhou, I'll find out who's behind this."
Although HZ City is very large, the only entities with conflicting interests with them are similar guesthouses and nearby homestays and hotels. If you really want to find them, there is still hope.
"I always forget, this house belongs to you, Chen Yang. Our operating costs are very low, so we should be bolder," Wang Bing said to Chen Yang. "You're a real money-maker! Although this is the suburbs, it has great potential. It's one thing for you to buy one, but you even bought the one next door! I think even if you don't run the inn, you can live quite comfortably just by waiting for the land value to appreciate."
Chen Yang shrugged helplessly. To be honest, he admired his own luck. He was surprised that he could find such a cheap place. Although it was in the suburbs, it wasn't a disadvantage for running a guesthouse.
"We'll officially open for business tomorrow. Things are going very smoothly right now. Brother Wang, please keep an eye on things these next couple of days. We'll find an auntie to help with some odd jobs, so you guys can focus on running the inn and taking care of the guests."
Wang Bing nodded, and was about to say something when Chen Yang interrupted him: "Brother Wang, I understand what you're trying to say. You want to hire a few more people, right?"
"Yes, that way we can provide better service."
Chen Yang smiled and shook his head, saying, "We don't need better service. We just need to provide the rooms and amenities; the guests can take care of the rest themselves."
Wang Bing's eyes widened. "Do it yourself? How will you keep customers then?"
Chen Yang smiled mysteriously and said, "You'll find out after tonight. Don't worry, guests will come to you on their own; you can't drive them away no matter what."
The three men looked at each other, wondering if their boss had gone mad.
"Take out your phones, open any app, and scan the QR code."
Chen Yang took out his phone, opened the Micro World app, and had the others scan the entry code.
The three of them took out their phones to scan the QR code with some skepticism.
As soon as I scanned the QR code, my phone went to an interface.
"Welcome to the Micro World".
Several large characters appeared on the screen. Then, a selection box appeared immediately afterward.
"Enter the Micro World"
However, the selection box is grayed out because it's not yet time for the micro-world to open. There's a countdown below; there's still a little over an hour left.
"All the guests have already checked in, so we'll leave them alone. After eight o'clock, everyone should go to bed and lie down, then enter the micro-world. Make sure you're wrapped up in your blankets, or I won't be responsible if you catch a cold."
"What the heck? This isn't some kind of app, is it? Okay, I thought you were so innocent, God of Wealth Yang, but it turns out you're always having sex chats after 8 PM!"
Li Su'er shouted incredulously.
Chen Yang reached out and flicked Li Su'er on the forehead.
"Please restrain your imagination. You'll find out tonight. By the way, Brother Wang, click to enter at 8:30. Be on time, don't go in early."
Wang Bing nodded, still feeling puzzled.
"Could this be a game?" Jiang Yining asked curiously.
Chen Yang paused for a moment, then said, "You can think of this as a kind of virtual reality game."
"Su'er, Yining, once you go inside, you should see a small wooden house. Once you go inside, you'll understand."
Wang Bing patted Chen Yang on the shoulder and said, "Chen Yang, I know you're not short of money, but don't get too addicted to these virtual things."
Chen Yang smiled, "Brother Wang, you'll understand tonight. Remember, you can only enter at 8:30."
The three bewildered people were ushered back to their room by Chen Yang, and waited for eight o'clock in the evening.
