Kang Shuaifu didn't know what to say, so he pretended to be aggrieved: "Everyone must have misunderstood me. I only received a notice this morning that we have divided the natural water sales market with that guy in the exclusive zone."
The Resource Coordination Committee isn't just sitting around doing nothing; why would they get involved in this kind of thing? I heard you applied for it yourself.
That's right, the Resource Coordination Committee never processes requests without prior approval; it's impossible for them to proactively do these things.
A true man takes responsibility for his actions; once you've applied, you've applied.
Anyway, that's how things are. What's the point of admitting it?
"How about this, I'll purify the Class III water again and upgrade it to Class I water quality. What do you all think?" Kang Shuaifu had no choice but to change the subject and try not to dwell on the application anymore.
But people didn't buy it.
[Class-one water costing 500,000 is unaffordable.]
[I can't buy the first-class water that costs 250 coins a bottle, but I want to buy the one that costs 500,000. I feel a bit stupid.]
It feels like we've all become 500,000 people.
What does 500,000 mean?
It means idiot! Spending 500,000 on a bottle of water, what else is that but idiocy?
[Old Kang, are you obsessed with money?]
If you're so greedy for money, why don't you rip off ordinary people? Why are you doing this to us? It's like our money just falls from the sky.
[I worked hard for half an hour, and all I got was enough to buy three bottles of water. This is outrageous!]
Money isn't the issue; the key is the feeling of being discriminated against. Why am I being forced to drink Class III water when I can clearly drink Class I water?
I feel like throwing up whenever I see Class III water now. What the hell is in it? It's so filthy!
[Last time I drank some type III water and had a stomachache, I even had to have my digestive system replaced, it cost 20 million!]
Money isn't the issue; the key is that after the stomach and intestines transplant, I feel impure. And those medical resources are for genetically modified, mindless people—it's disgusting.
Old Kang really went too far this time.
[Our company hereby announces that if Kangshuaifu purchases our products, the price will be increased one hundredfold!]
[The gene tech mogul is awesome. I wouldn't dare raise prices for Lao Kang alone. At most, I'll just stop selling to him.]
That's right, there's really no need to raise prices. The price of water hasn't gone up either, so at most, they just won't sell it.
[You guys are really something! Have you stockpiled enough Class I water to last through the Lunar New Year?]
"I'd rather drink recycled water than swallow this feeling of being forced into this situation."
[Charging for recycled water is even more frustrating]
Kang Shuaifu had wanted to say something more, but seeing the situation was getting out of hand, he simply got up and left, leaving everyone with an empty room. After all, regulations now stipulated that permanent residents of the safe zone couldn't buy the Class I water sold by Li Lechen; those people either had to drink recycled water or buy their own natural water.
Indeed, after venting their frustrations, everyone realized that they only had these two options left.
Annan, who had 600 coins in his pocket, happened to come across Kang Shuaifu's live stream and discovered that this big shot in the safe zone's live stream was actually free, so he clicked in.
That's right. Because Kang Shuaifu rarely does live streams, and he earns a lot from selling water, he never bothers to make money through paid live streams. Therefore, his live streams have always been free.
However, you get what you pay for. Kang Shuaifu's live stream was basically nothing special, and if it weren't for so many people coming to him today, it wouldn't have been lively at all.
After Kang Shuaifu left, everyone felt bored and left as well.
The live chat suddenly became quiet.
[Just a quick ad, anyone need some Class I water?]
Annan tried sending a comment and found that it actually appeared.
This was his first time entering a top streamer's livestream and his first time sending a comment. He had heard that many top streamers' livestreams had settings that prevented viewers in the restricted area from speaking, so he was quite surprised that he was able to send a comment successfully.
After paying six months' rent, Annan was planning to go to the mall to buy a satiety pill, but unexpectedly, he came across a limited-time special offer on 50 million bottles of Class I water. With a slip of his hand, he produced ten coins and bought ten bottles of Class I water.
Knowing it was a type of water, I naturally couldn't bear to drink it, especially since I bought it at a special price.
Actually, this wasn't the first livestream room where Annan advertised; he had advertised in several other livestream rooms before.
Annan didn't intend to sell each bottle for thousands or tens of thousands of dollars. He just wanted to sell each bottle for the original price of 250 coins. Ten bottles would then yield 2,500 coins. After paying taxes, he would have over 2,000 coins, enough to live on for more than half a year.
Of course, it would be even better if it could be sold at a higher price.
However, perhaps because there was too much of the first type of water, especially since it was sold without quantity limits yesterday, most people bought the first type of water, so it was not popular.
Because there are so many ads, many live streaming rooms have simply blocked them.
Annan posted the ad with the mindset that he might get banned at worst, but he didn't expect it to attract so much attention.
How much does the first-class bottled water cost for children?
I'm concerned about the quantity; is it around a thousand bottles?
[Advertising here with Lao Kang is commendable; we must support them!]
I'll take whatever goods the kid has in his hands.
I asked first, so I should be the one to ask first.
I was the first to say I wanted them all, it's not fair for you to compete with me.
Or maybe we should ask the kids how much stock they have. If it's a lot, we can share it.
I'll take them all, no matter how many there are. I don't have any left in stock, so please don't try to take them from me!
It's like I have a stockpile of water; if this keeps up, I'm even prepared to drink recycled water.
[Damn, that's too much! They'd rather drink recycled water than buy Lao Kang's Class III water?]
