Chapter 614: Empty Hands, Big Cooling
Luo Jincheng asked curiously, "Uncle, wasn't yesterday's matter resolved? We paid the fine and used our connections to get two more market opportunities. We'll have a market soon and be able to make up for the losses we've suffered during this period."
Old Ji suddenly looked much older: "In this kind of weather, who would come to the market!"
Luo Jincheng glanced outside: "It won't last too long, will it?"
Old Ji: "Hehe, it lasted for 28 days!"
Luo Jincheng: "What?"
Elder Ji: "This is Lu Xingchen's revenge, revenge against Frost Snow Village!"
Luo Jincheng screamed: "How is this possible?"
There will be competition between the villages, and they may cause trouble for each other. If you are caught by someone, you may suffer retaliation.
Everyone knows this.
However, those retaliations are nothing more than reducing or increasing taxes, with the maximum increase being 3%. This kind of retaliation is useful and can reduce the village’s income, but it is not fatal.
When did this kind of retaliation begin?
The extreme weather lasted for 28 days, and the Frost and Snow Village had no idea how much it would suffer. Moreover, they had only seized two market opportunities, and now both were ruined.
Neither sellers nor buyers would risk their lives to set up a stall!
On the other side, Xuanyuan Batian finally woke up, and as soon as he did, he saw the chat room buzzing with discussion:
"I never expected the Misty Rain Village Market to be such a success!"
"Haha, a while ago, the Xuanyuan family was saying that opening a market was extremely difficult. Even if they found the order to build the market, the chance of success was only one percent. How come they succeeded?"
"Shh, you dare say anything? Are you out of your mind?!"
"Can't you tell me the truth? Other districts have over a dozen spots, but ours only has one? Did the Xuanyuan family offend the people in District 33?"
Xuanyuan Batian's face turned pale.
We wouldn't have dared to say this in the chat channel before, but now, are these people going against us?!
Opening a market is indeed difficult. Some players have obtained the market construction order, but still failed in the end.
He never expected Lu Xingchen to succeed.
There was only one person in District 26 who had an admission ticket. He bought the ticket, used a disguise card, and entered the Misty Rain Village Market.
Sure enough, the market was full of goods. This time, he finally bought a few power crystals and thermal crystals at Duobaobao's shop, and also bought a lucky card.
I couldn't resist having some delicious food on the food street.
Moreover, knowing that some NPCs were foodies, he specially bought a lot of roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), glutinous rice cakes, xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), and other similar items and put them in his storage backpack.
In the final satisfaction evaluation, he gave the Misty Rain Village Market a score of 0.
Little did he know, he was inexplicably bitten by a poisonous creature in the sea, his face swelled up, and he fell into the stream in a daze. He didn't even have time to take out his diving suit and breathing mask before he drowned.
Then I came back.
He opened the storage backpack, took a look, and his face changed drastically.
A huge amount of food he bought has vanished!
Meanwhile, the bag containing the coins, the few crystals I bought, and the lucky cards were all gone.
Got robbed?
Impossible! No matter how capable Lu Xingchen is, he can't open his storage backpack!
Xuanyuan Batian was stunned for a long time before opening the chat panel and carefully scrolling through the chat messages.
Finally, he saw a series of notification messages:
[Thief 034 from Misty Village used his "Empty-Hit Wonder" on you, and you've lost a basket of xiaolongbao!]
[Misty Rain Village Thief 001 used "Empty Hand" on you, and you lost a bag of gold coins!]
[Thief 034 from Misty Village used his "Empty-Handed Skill" on you, and you lost a bag of zongzi!]
[Thief 001 from Misty Village used "Helpless Hands" on you, and you've lost a power crystal!]
...
The messages, countless in number, recorded the crimes of thieves 034 and 001.
