“Can you all show some backbone? Let’s all boycott this unhealthy trend together! We can’t just encourage his arrogance!”
“This isn’t a question of backbone, is it? The goods are in their hands, I have the game coins, and I’m willing to spend them. What right do you have to moralize at me?”
“Exactly, exactly! And it was said before that Boss Crow has a tough temper. If it weren’t for you lot, the bread prices wouldn’t have gone up. If we follow your logic, shouldn’t I blame you for making the bread prices rise?”
“Huh? Is that how it works?”
“So... is really no one interested in how to enter the Beastman Town?”
“You can get in if you have an identity card.”
“Boss, please elaborate!”
“I beg the Boss to enlighten us!”
That person replied again: “It’s just an identity card obtained randomly. A lot of people should have them. As long as you have this kind of card, you can get into the Beastman Town.”
There was a chorus of thanks after that, but the harmonious atmosphere was soon broken.
“So you definitely have one, then.”
“???”
“??!!”
“Something’s not right, something is very wrong!”
“Damn it, I just tried it with a designated player duel card, and someone has already used a duel card on him.”
She was long since accustomed to such things.
But every time Cheng Shuili saw this situation, her heart still skipped a beat. As long as one revealed that they possessed something valuable, designated player duel cards would swarm in like flies.
That was the current situation; only by being cautious could one survive.
Cheng Shuili sighed.
The regional channel continued.
“Kind Boss, you must hold on!”
“Is anyone willing to support the Boss? We can’t just watch a good person die like this!”
“Never mind how to support him, his avatar is already gray, okay? The person is already gone.”
“Damn it. You guys do this every single time! Last time it was Wawan, this time it’s this Boss! If you guys keep doing this, who will dare to predict disasters in the regional channel? Who will dare to answer questions in the regional channel anymore?!”
“What can we do? These things happened before, they happen now, and they will happen in the future. As long as there are people, these things will never be in short supply.”
“It’s just survival of the fittest. Watch your words and actions, you’ll get used to it.”
“I know! There’s a way! Didn’t someone above say something about support? We really can’t support him, but we can occupy the slots for the designated player duel cards! As long as someone uses one, others can’t use them anymore! Wouldn’t those selfless, helpful bosses be safe that way?”
“What you say makes a lot of sense. But... are you willing to give me a designated player duel card for free?”
“Although this card isn’t as useful as others, it’s still a card.”
“And even if you use it, twenty minutes later there will be others who will use one. As long as this person’s avatar is still lit, there will be an endless stream of people coming. This method can only delay death.”
“That’s not right. If we follow that logic, isn’t the richest person among us Crow? Why doesn’t Crow......”
Cheng Shuili: “???”
Was she eating melon and it ended up being about her?
“To be able to ask that question, you should go to the Beastman Town and consult an expert.”
“Whether you have the qualifications to enter the Beastman Town is another matter.”
“Just say it if you’re going to say it, what’s with the snide remarks? Do I owe you something?”
“Alright, alright, let me explain why. Because no one is going to commit suicide on purpose. These people who occasionally pop up in our regional channel might only have one good item on them, but those on the wealth leaderboard and mileage leaderboard, they might have items you’ve never seen from head to toe, even between their teeth! Good stuff! Can you understand this difference?”
Cheng Shuili nodded, then shook her head; it wasn’t quite as exaggerated as being “armed to the teeth.”
“Exactly. In short, it’s the difference between treasure hunting and committing suicide.”
“So if everyone is starving and freezing, and you really can’t live until tomorrow, and you happen to have a designated player duel card in your hand, you can try to gamble on it. After all, even 25% of Boss Crow’s supplies would put you in the top few of the wealth leaderboard.”
Cheng Shuili frowned and silently blocked this person.
“The person above should watch their words. I forgot to mention, I’m from Partition 1000, and Boss Crow is sometimes quite petty.”
Cheng Shuili paused, a little tempted to block this one too. But this sentence wasn’t too offensive, so Cheng Shuili didn’t take action.
“Petty? What can she do?”
“She can block you.”
The person who was blocked seemed to have said something, and the regional channel exploded again.
“She really blocked them? Hahahaha!”
“Ah hahahaha, why is this so funny?”
“Has the Boss been lurking the whole time? She hasn’t said a single word, right?”
“I feel like Boss Crow is so cute. She doesn’t talk, and if she gets angry, she just blocks people. I like her so much, I want to be with the Boss (˵¯͒¯͒˵)”
“The abacus beads from the person above just hit me in the face.”
“You’re blocking people just because of one sentence? This is too much, right? They didn’t even say anything!”
Cheng Shuili’s smile froze for a moment. She blocked this person too before she could smile again.
That feels better.
The blocking feature invented by the system is quite good. I can give it a positive review.
“You were inciting others to attack Boss Crow in the regional channel, isn’t it natural that you got blocked? To the person above, if I said everyone could use a designated player duel card on you, wouldn’t you be angry?”
“Don’t talk to them, people with brains like that don’t understand human language.”
“Boss Crow is lurking!”
“Damn it! The bread issue had too much impact, I almost forgot the most important thing! @Angry Crow Takes Flight, Boss, are you still processing basic water condensation devices? I beg you, Boss, please give us a firm answer.”
Of course she would process them.
The water on Xinxue’s side was already sold out. Cheng Shuili wanted to take advantage of the extreme heat to rake in another fortune with the basic water condensation devices!
Oh no, that sounds too ugly.
Cheng Shuili was going to be kind-hearted and save these people from fire and water!
But the Boss’s time is very precious, so the processing fee this time will have to be a bit higher.
Cheng Shuili thought for a while. If she asked for too much, many people wouldn’t be able to afford it, and she would end up earning less instead.
Since the system started paying mileage wages, every player has had at least a hundred game coins. Even if they spent quite a bit, they should be able to keep half, right?
Then it wouldn’t be excessive for Cheng Shuili to charge 50 game coins, right?
No.
Cheng Shuili shook her head. Increasing it by ten times all at once was still too much. If she put herself in their shoes, she would also find it hard to accept.
She would be doing processing work in the future, so she couldn’t do a one-off deal.
And now that the regions were merged, the workstation was no longer unique to her alone. She had to build a reputation so that business would be easier to do in the future.
Cheng Shuili thought for a moment and decided to charge 50 game coins first. The previous 5 game coins were really too low. If she just increased the price, these people would definitely have many opinions.
But if she set the price very high at the beginning and then lowered it, the level of acceptance would be completely different.
