Chapter 214 Peach Blossom Paradise, Server Merge
Meng Qingyin didn't forget Chen Leying and the others either; they also needed to sell eggs, and it would be best if the prices could be standardized.
They used teleportation cards to get here, and each teleportation card costs 1 gold coin.
For them, even this 1 gold coin has a cost to be calculated.
After discussing it, the group finally set the price at 50 copper coins per pound.
One pound of eggs contains about 10 eggs. If you eat them sparingly, they can last for three or four days without any problem.
Moreover, food prices are very high now. Even if they sell it for 50 copper coins per pound, or even at a higher price, the supply still can't meet the demand.
Meng Qingyin planned to test the waters with this first batch of eggs. If they sold quickly, she would buy more from the chicken farm later.
To Meng Qingyin's surprise, the eggs were sold out in just one minute after they were put on the shelves.
This is still the result of the purchase limit of one kilogram per person. If there were no purchase limit, it would probably sell out even faster.
To speak with a human operator, press 1: "Hey food-starved folks, head to the trading hall! Mengmeng just listed a batch of eggs!"
Melon-skin slippers: "I followed Mengmeng's store, and I clicked on it as soon as I received the notification, but I still couldn't get it! I suspect that you guys are camping out Mengmeng's store every day."
It's the eighth day of the week! "There are too many monks and not enough meat! Do you still have eggs, boss? I haven't had eggs in ages, I want some."
Mengmeng: "Everyone can check out the shops of @陈乐莹, @烈酒浇愁, @我是欧皇(穷酸版), and @我是非酋的, they also have eggs on sale!"
Mr. Zhu, who loves kumquats: "Hehe, I snagged a pound of eggs at the store of the fake lucky guy! I'll treat myself to a meal tomorrow and fry some eggs!"
Qiao Xiaoran: "Aaaaaah, I'm going to fight you guys who got the eggs!"
Lucky King: "Guys, have pity on this kid! Put some more eggs on the shelves, he's going crazy with hunger!"
sjoh: "Upstairs, you're practically starving! I'm begging for eggs!"
"..."
Before long, Lu Cheng paid back all the money he had borrowed that day, including the money he owed everyone.
Seeing that many players in the chat area were asking for eggs, Meng Qingyin thought she might as well go to the chicken farm to buy some eggs tomorrow.
However, plans can change quickly.
The next morning, the players received the long-awaited good news.
[Announcement: The Don't Starve map has officially ended. We will now officially enter the next phase. Players are encouraged to explore on their own.]
[Server-wide announcement: The current server population is less than half. A server merge will be performed in five minutes. Please be prepared and remain in place during this time.]
These two announcements immediately caused an uproar in the chat area.
Sweet and Sour okk: "Finally, we're out of this awful Don't Starve map! We made it through!"
Sheep Village Captain: "So what's the next stage? I see there are trees on both sides of the road, and grass on the ground. It's no longer bare yellow earth."
Yi Yi: "Didn't you see the information panel upstairs? It's the Peach Blossom Paradise map that was previously rejected."
Lonely Square 3: "The servers are merging again! This is our second merge. Will we have to change the management system again?"
007 Happy Everyday: "Yeah, everyone should definitely choose 007 when the time comes!"
007: "That's right, that's right! No matter who the new system is, or what they promise—gift boxes or whatever—don't be fooled! 007 is our only hope for survival! The people who are still alive are the best proof of that!"
Waiting for the passing years: "Don't worry, don't worry, everyone will definitely not hold us back!"
Rickshaw: "It feels so scary. Less than half of the players on the server are still alive. How many people died in this famine! But not a single person died in our 30th district. We are so lucky to have 007."
Yi Yi He An: "Players in our region don't need to worry, they will definitely choose 007, but players in other regions may not choose 007. If even one person doesn't choose 007, wouldn't that mean it's assumed to be another system?"
Sweetie didn't understand: "But wasn't last time a special case? I hope they won't be so strict when choosing the system to manage, otherwise we'll have to separate from 007."
The chat area was flooded with messages, and five minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
Just then, all players received a notification about the server merge.
This server merge is random. Server 30 will be merged with servers 389, 890, and 279, becoming one server. The merge is expected to take one minute, please be patient.
During the server merge, all system functions will be unavailable, and players will not be able to send messages in the chat area; players will simply have to wait.
Fortunately, a minute doesn't take long, and the merge was completed quickly.
[In this server merge, District 30 has the highest number of surviving players with 42,148. The new district will continue to be named District 30, and the governing system will remain 007.]
Meng Qingyin immediately checked the current number of people: 71,837.
Their district alone accounts for more than half of the population, and the number of survivors in the remaining three districts is not optimistic.
However, the good news is that 007 is still the supervisory system of the new District 30!
With the server merge complete, the chat area is unusually lively.
Little Karami: "Thank goodness, our supervisory system is still 007! I'm going to eat three eggs to celebrate!"
Century Egg and Lean Pork Congee: "Thank goodness we weren't asked to vote this time, what a relief!"
007 Happy Everyday: "Hehe, 007 will always be in charge of our district!"
It's Yaoyue: "Are you all from the original District 30? Why do you like this system so much?"
Little Karami: "Because 007 is the best system! You'll see later."
An ordinary dragon fruit: "How did you manage to have over 40,000 people survive in District 30?"
Lonely Square 3: "Which district are you from? How many people are still alive in your district?"
A regular dragon fruit: "I'm from district 389, and there are 13,729 people alive in our district."
Kunkun (-o-): "I'm from District 890. There are 15,959 survivors in our district, about the same as you guys. District 30 is really amazing, with more than 40,000 survivors."
Ke Bei: "42148 + 13729 + 15959 = 71836, but the current number of survivors is 71837, so only one person survived in District 279?"
Meng Bujianyao: "This is too tragic! Only one person survived in the entire 279th district? What happened in their district?"
I'm rallied in support of the hamster player: "I have a feeling that the player who survived in District 279 is no ordinary person! Could he be a serial killer?"
Lin Yuci: "Where is the only survivor from District 279? Come out and say something!"
No matter how curious the players were, the only surviving player from 279 did not speak up.
Speculation about him was rampant in the chat room. Some thought he was a low-key big shot, some thought he was a terrifyingly powerful serial killer, and others thought he was an incredibly lucky person.
But regardless of the speculation, everyone assumes he is a very strong player.
After all, as the only surviving player in the district, it's impossible to be without some skill.
