To uphold the values of fairness, justice, democracy, and freedom in Dongli, a random swiping wheel will be activated for all members. The most frequently selected option will become the theme of this giveaway event!
Xi Xi paused for a moment, then looked at Chu Zhiqin. The last day of the year?
Before I could even think, a familiar, enormous light screen slowly appeared before my eyes.
The turntable was divided into four equal parts, with the four characters "帛" (silk), "飧" (meal), "邸" (official residence), and "赴" (to go) written on them respectively, just like the previous "飧之竞" (competition for meals)!
Xi Xi and Chu Zhiqin left "Di" and "Fu" respectively, and then put the matter out of their minds.
Chu Zhiqin was busy stocking up on food for Aura and the little white duck. Xi Xi, on the other hand, only felt a little relieved after properly handling Ouping, following Li Jinshao's advice.
Just then, the game notification sounded again.
[Ding! The random wheel event has ended, and results are being tallied...]
[Game Hint: Congratulations to "帛" for receiving the highest number of votes (26.1%), becoming the theme of this giveaway event!]
[From now until 10 PM tonight, the "Competition of Silks" event will be open. Adventurers can upload their clothing items (at least one/maximum three) to participate in the event through the event interface!]
Please see the details page for specific participation methods.
ah? ? ! !
Xi Xi and Chu Zhiqin looked at each other, the mother and daughter exchanging a knowing glance at each other's old and ill-fitting clothes, their lips twitching involuntarily.
Xi Xi's outfit was taken from the luggage rack of a steam train.
The faded work pants had rolled-up cuffs due to wear, and the top consisted of an oversized shirt and a misshapen sweater.
These clothes were clearly a size too big, hanging loosely as if they were relics from a time of abundance, now barely enough to cover the body.
Chu Zhiqin was wearing outdated baggy shorts and an old T-shirt that was tight around her body. The T-shirt had long lost its former color and luster, but the fabric was still quite comfortable.
This kind of inappropriate outfit is fine for everyday wear, since it's a survival game and fashion isn't important, so just make do.
But now they're being forced to use these clothes to participate in the "Silk Competition," and even sell them... Xi Xi couldn't help but find it a bit ridiculous.
Upon opening the public chat, as expected, it was filled with wailing and lamentation.
"What the hell are they selling clothes? And at least one item! I've only had one piece of clothing all this time, do they expect me to run around naked?!"
"Exhibitionists are in luck."
"Damn it, giving out gift packs for the New Year's event is one thing, but why this silk competition... they won't even let us keep a single piece of tattered clothing?"
"Is it mandatory to sell them? Isn't it a voting system this time?"
"Why didn't you sell the last food competition? I was drooling over it while looking at the screen."
" I just uploaded the sock with a hole in it, and it passed the review, lucky~"
"Ugh, your socks stink!! At least add a warning if you want to open this, right?"
Can I upload underwear?
"Would anyone actually buy clothes that someone else has worn? That's disgusting!"
"Not participating in the competition is a violation; you must upload at least one item and at most three."
"Just participate casually. I just transferred a baby outfit I got from a treasure chest. I don't need it anyway, so I'll just use it to make up the numbers."
"The key issue is that I really don't have any clothes to upload! I've been wearing slippers since I started playing, and I don't even have any socks."
"Can someone sell baby clothes please provide a link with the product number? I really need it!! My little one is struggling to find clothes to wear!"
"I'm disgusted. All I see on the event page are people selling smelly socks. I just clicked on one at random, and they were all pickled."
Who is the target audience for this kind of activity?
"Buying clothes on the event page requires survival points...why not use those survival points to buy food?"
"Someone's actually selling Hermès bags, at exorbitant prices..."
"I saw that too. It's such a rip-off. Who would use survival points to buy secondhand luxury goods here?"
"However, from another perspective, this is a great opportunity for the entire server to exchange clothes!"
"Right, right, I was just about to say that some people are in the hot tunnel and some are in the cold tunnel, so it's not easy to switch within the server, but that doesn't mean it's impossible to switch across the entire server!"
"Damn, you're right, I'm freezing to death. If I don't get a down jacket soon, I'll be asleep forever. I'm going to check out the event page."
"Yeah, secondhand is better than freezing to death."
"Look at the event details page. This event lasts longer than the Food Festival, it runs until midnight to celebrate the New Year."
"Wow... time flies, it's already the new year..."
"I never imagined I'd be spending New Year's Eve in such a run-down place. It's so heartbreaking..."
"They say each person can only buy three items, and there will be extra free gifts with each purchase. What are the free gifts? Has anyone tried them?"
"I don't know. Maybe like last time, just a few candies?"
"I'm knocking, it's not candy!"
"It's not candy! It's a cleansing talisman!!"
"OMG, this is quite user-friendly. After buying clothes, you can use a cleaning charm to clean them."
"It's actually not bad. Although cleansing talismans aren't very rare, they're still quite useful everyday talismans!"
"Huh? If I buy three pairs of smelly socks at a low price, and then use a cleaning talisman, wouldn't I be able to get three pairs of clean socks and two cleaning talismans for free with very few survival points?"
Holy crap!!!! Genius!!!
"Discharged from the hospital!!!!!"
"Holy crap, I've mastered the art!"
"Damn it, leave me a pair of smelly socks!"
"What kind of typing speed are you guys?! Your stinky socks are almost gone, and you're all secretly looking at the chat without saying anything, huh?"
"Quick! Anyone want to swap socks with me? Let's team up and get free cleaning charms!"
"No, don't be so hasty. If you use up all your chances now, what if you find some good quality, low-priced goods later?"
"Damn it, even stinky socks are being auctioned off now!"
"Yes, if two or more people click at the same time, the bidding button will appear."
"It looks like an auction venue."
"What auction house would auction off smelly socks..."
