Chapter 59: Planting the Seeds of Longing

May 17, 2023Ai Hrist

Cheng Yunshi was still bowing her head and wondering how to see Shen Jufeng again, while Yao Bingan and the others have already bought what they want.

Yao Bingan gave Lu Jiu 100 copper coins: “I bought too much today, thank you for guiding us and I will make up for you when I go back.”

Lu Jiu shook her head: “I just brought you to the store, and you paid for the things yourself. Next time you come, you already know the exact location of the store.”

The City-states automatically expel non-city-state residents at 8 p.m. Now it was passed 6 p.m., and they can only stay for two hours more.

There was still one place they haven’t visited on this trip: “Why don’t you go to the department store, there are some cosmetics there, girls can look at it, even the boys can come.”

Cheng Yunshi had heard Lu Jiu talk about department stores before. She was naturally curious about the various things that were sold, so she wanted to go: “I want to go and take a look, I haven’t used cosmetics for a long time.”

Don’t say they were in the game world now, if they don’t sleep well, their faces will still look bad, and now everyone’s face was naked.

Among the three city lords, there were two girls. Although they were city lords, they were girls in their early teens and twenties. Of course, they have ideas about cosmetics.

Compared to the other three shops, professional players patronize more, and the department store has a lot of life-skill players.

When Li Aoting entered the department mall, several children passed by them together, and they stood directly on the escalator to go upstairs.

Lu Jiu saw them staring at the children: “There is an amusement park on the top floor. The children in the city have a card to go there to play when they have time.”

He Ange was very interested in this, and ran to Lu Jiu and asked: “What kind of games are they? Are there any games suitable for adults?”

“Yes, it’s in the Electric City, where adults and children can play.” Lu Jiu also hoped that someone here would apply for a card here. But in order not to waste money, people better come here often.

He Ange was not interested in other things in the mall, but he likes to play video games: “Then I will go to see it too, can I play as long as I have the card?”

Lu Jiu hummed: “You have to get a card. You can go up and see for yourself, it’s not expensive anyway.”

He Ange went upstairs with a few people who also wanted to play video games, while the others went shopping by themselves. Lu Jiu completed today’s tour guide task, so she said: “Then take your time, I’ll go back first.”

Yao Bingan and others nodded: “Thank you.”

After waving goodbye to Lu Jiu, Cheng Yunshi and the other little sisters ran to the makeup area, where the cosmetics were all big brands they were familiar with.

It felt like they were shopping in the mall like before.

A girl picked up a perfume on the counter and exclaimed: “Wow, it’s Chanel, but it’s so cheap.” The price displayed on the counter was 35 copper coins for 30ml.

Now 35 copper coins were too cheap for them. After all, you can only buy these things if you spend thousands of dollars before.

There were many brands here of different types. Cheng Yunshi even saw a local girl in Xuantian City try lipstick, with delicate makeup on her face, and it didn’t look fake.

Finally, before 8 pm, Li Aoting and others had gathered at the gate of the city.

He Ange still had an unsatisfactory expression on his face: “It’s been a long time since I played a game, but the electric city game opened by this system is more fun, it’s really exciting.”

Just like the racing game he played, he needed to wear special glasses and sit in the car seat, and then the top was covered to form a closed environment, and then the special glasses brought him into the holographic scene.

He can feel the acceleration and collision.

In the end, he overturned the car, which also gave him the real feeling of overturning.

“Yes, but I won the first place today.” The boy who went to Electric City with He Ange said excitedly.

“City Master He overturned his car. I was by the side then, watching his seat roll over in place.”

“Hahaha, he also called himself the God of Car.” Other teammates laughed mercilessly.

He Ange felt embarrassed: “That’s enough, it was an accident. It’s the first time I’m not proficient in this kind of car.”

Seeing their intense discussion, Li Aoting was slightly startled. Xuantian City was so good, she even suspected that some of these teammates might want to live here for a while.

There were three free shops for them to open when they upgrade to the second-level city-state, so why would they be willing to get 10 more gold coins to open one more shop?

Even she was jealous today. She even asked herself. If she was not the city lord and had her city-state, would she choose to settle in Xuantian City? Yes, of course.

However, Li Aoting’s face remained unchanged, and she said calmly, “Everyone is here? Then, let’s set off, and talk as we walk.” She couldn’t shut up her teammates about Xuantian City.

“Yes, the new version of the bicycle I bought is so cool.” He Ange showed off and took out the pure black bicycle again. Compared with the wooden bicycle next to it, it was like the difference between a scooter and a luxury car.

Seeing He Ange take out his bicycle without scruples, the teammate snorted: “When I save enough money, I will sell this bicycle and get a new version.”

[Iron Bicycle]

(Bronze Level)

Speed: 96

Defense: 68

Speed per hour: basic 25km/h

Effect: Every 4 kilometers you travel, you can get double acceleration for 3 seconds.

The basic spessentialas 5km/h faster than the previous wooden bicycle, and the double acceleration distance was also shorter by one kilometer.

The three city-states in Jinghe District were very lively recently, many professional players have poured into the shops in Wuyu City.

Since Yao Bingan put new products on the shelves after returning from Xuantian City a few days ago, the team in Wuyu City was all mourning because their pockets have been emptied.

From bicycles to potions with excellent attributes, they wanted to buy them all.

The prices of the items brought back have doubled without exception, the city lord has to make money.

The captains of each team received mails from the city lord, saying that there were better plaid backpacks to trade.

They borrowed a certain room in the hotel.

Seven or eight people are sitting in the living room of the room, and sitting in the middle of the sofa was a fat man who was also the captain of the team.

“City Lord Yao said that there are four sizes of backpacks: 5, 8, 12, and 16. She doesn’t have many backpacks at the moment. I’m going to buy a 16-pack and two of the other three. What kind of backpack do you want to buy? ”

After the fat man finished speaking, others talked about how much capacity they wanted to buy.

The girl sitting next to the man asked: “Captain, are there unlimited personal backpacks? Could it be that the city lord said so to stimulate consumption?”

The slightly fat man shook his head slightly: “She doesn’t need to lie to people with these backpacks, and if there will be no unlimited personal backpacks, it is unlikely that there will be plaid backpacks.”

The girl saw what her captain said, so she didn’t worry about it anymore.

Instead, a short man standing by the window suddenly said: “Captain, we found labels on the bicycles we bought, and the insides of the potion bottle caps brought back by the city lord also have the same labels. Do you think those are products made in Xuantian City, Jinjiang District?”

These were the reason why they gathered here.

“Otherwise, there is no Xuantian Shop in our city, and the city lord has nothing to do with the word Xuantian.” The slightly fat man suspected that the city lord went to Xuantian City to purchase these and then came back to resell them.
