The world channel was buzzing with excitement, especially after Chen Xiaodong's speech, which made it even more lively.
Chen Xiaodong: "Is that guy who sells sunflowers and carpets around? Message me if you see this! I have a big business deal to discuss with you!"
Fearing his message would be scrolled past, Chen Xiaodong scrolled through it five times in a row.
"Hey, looks like Chen Xiaodong is trying to overtake Liu Hongtao and Luo Xinglan? He's started collecting supplies?"
"It's still possible to surpass Liu Hongtao, but it's basically impossible to surpass Luo Xinglan."
"I thought he had some backup plan this time, but it seems he didn't. To be honest, I'm a little disappointed in Chen the Mad Dog this time."
"Haha, upstairs, you've developed feelings for Chen Xiaodong after being tormented by him?"
"Doesn't Chen Xiaodong know that it's Boss Luo Xinglan selling carpets and sunflowers?"
"It's strange, I made a carpet too, but it doesn't increase the coziness level. The carpet that I bought from Luo Xinglan, however, does increase the coziness level. Why is that?"
"I don't know, the things I make myself don't add to the warmth level!"
"Perhaps this is the system's special treatment of the big shots."
Do you think Luo Xinglan will sell the sunflowers and carpet to Chen Xiaodong?
"Probably? Anyway, Chen Xiaodong can't keep up with Luo Xinglan's progress. Selling it to him would allow us to make more money. If it were me, I would sell it at a high price."
"I don't think so. How do you know Chen Xiaodong doesn't have any other items on his phone that could increase the warmth level? Maybe this is just a smokescreen."
"..."
Chen Xiaodong waited for a while, but no one contacted him.
He couldn't help but feel anxious. What was going on?
Did you not see his message?
He was just about to shout it out a few more times in the world chat when someone tagged him.
He patiently scrolled through the chat messages, and his face darkened.
Sunflowers and carpets are actually being sold by Luo Xinglan?
Luo Xinglan has always regarded him as a thorn in her side. Would she agree to sell these two supplies to him?
Chen Xiaodong was torn. On one hand, he wanted to outdo Liu Hongtao, but on the other hand, he didn't want to buy Luo Xinglan's supplies.
As time ticked by, Chen Xiaodong finally made up his mind.
He messaged Luo Xinglan: "Luo Xinglan, sell me one of your sunflowers and carpet. I'll buy it if the price is right."
Unexpectedly, before the message was sent, I received a notification:
The other party has blocked you and you cannot send messages!
Chen Xiaodong was furious. How dare Luo Xinglan block him?
They really don't know what's good for them!
He refused to believe that he couldn't surpass Liu Hongtao without Luo Xinglan's sunflowers and carpet.
He angrily shouted in the world chat: "Buying all kinds of supplies that can increase warmth level! DM me if you have any, price is negotiable!"
"I have a flowerpot here that can increase coziness, selling for 1000 gold coins. Chen Xiaodong, do you want to buy it?"
Chen Xiaodong: "You're selling me a broken flowerpot for 1000 gold coins? Are you stupid or am I stupid?"
"Chen Xiaodong, I can resell the [Wool Rug] to you, just give me 2000 gold coins!"
Chen Xiaodong: "Heh, you bought the carpet for 100 gold coins, and you're selling it to me for 2000 gold coins? Do you think I'm a sucker?"
After sending that message, Chen Xiaodong angrily closed the chat channel.
He realized that these people had no intention of selling him anything!
A bunch of snobbish scoundrels!
He glanced at the time; there was less than an hour left until the end of the second phase.
During this period, Liu Hongtao's warmth level was only 10 points higher than his, and it did not increase again. As long as he could increase his warmth level by 11 points, he could surpass Liu Hongtao and become second!
He had no choice but to keep tagging Luo Xinglan in the world chat. Although Luo Xinglan had blocked him, he could still tag her in the world chat.
Luo Xinglan heard a series of notification sounds. At first, she thought it was a message from Jiang Mingze and the others. But when she looked, she found that Chen Xiaodong was tagging her, wanting to buy sunflowers and a carpet.
She didn't have a good impression of Chen Xiaodong and immediately replied, "Not for sale."
Chen Xiaodong hurriedly said, "Luo Xinglan, don't rush to refuse. I know you're afraid I'll surpass you, but I assure you, I only want to get second place, I won't compete with you for first! And my offer will be the highest. Think it over carefully, and give me your answer in half an hour... ten minutes!"
Luo Xinglan was speechless after reading Chen Xiaodong's message, so she simply stopped replying.
This person must have something wrong with their brain.
Luo Xinglan didn't reply, so Chen Xiaodong assumed she was interested and was starting to seriously consider the matter, so he stopped calling out to her.
The others simply watched the show quietly.
Jiang Mingze messaged Luo Xinglan: "Sister Lan, you're not really planning to sell the sunflowers to Chen Xiaodong, are you?"
Luo Xinglan: "No."
Jiang Mingze was relieved: "That's good, that's good. I don't want to see that scumbag living comfortably."
The two talked about other things, and soon, ten minutes had passed.
Chen Xiaodong tagged Luo Xinglan in the world chat again: "Luo Xinglan, have you thought it through?"
Luo Xinglan ignored her.
Chen Xiaodong asked again, and Jiang Mingze replied, "Isn't it obvious? Sister Lan doesn't want to sell it to you!"
Chen Xiaodong was getting anxious. There was less than half an hour left before the event ended, and if Luo Xinglan didn't sell him the item, he wouldn't be able to surpass Liu Hongtao.
Chen Xiaodong began to threaten: "Luo Xinglan, having more friends means having more options. In this world without moral and legal constraints, do you want to make enemies for yourself?!"
Luo Xinglan finally spoke up: "If you're referring to yourself as the 'enemy' you're talking about, then I don't care."
Given Chen Xiaodong's petty nature, he probably already remembers those things from the past. Why would she care about one more?
Chen Xiaodong: "Luo Xinglan, you're determined to go against me today, aren't you? Just you wait, one day you'll be begging me on your knees!"
Jiang Mingze: "I'm so scared because a mad dog holds a grudge against me!"
Zhou Yiran: "That person really has a big mouth."
Chen Xiaodong: "Jiang Mingze and Zhou Yiran, don't gloat. One day, I'll make the three of you kneel down and beg me!"
After saying that, he left the world channel.
Luo Xinglan didn't take this little incident to heart and waited for midnight to arrive.
