Chapter 40 Internet Cafe on the Other Side

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Niu Xiangui remembered that when he was in junior high school, the most anticipated thing after school every day was to go to the Internet cafe. (Due to caching reasons, please visit the browser directly.\nCOM website to watch the fastest chapter updates)

At that time, minors' access to the Internet was not as strictly controlled as it was later. You could enter many Internet cafes without an ID card, and there were even some elementary school students chatting on QQ and playing Audition.

There are shirtless young people yelling and swearing while playing CS, while World of Warcraft players are busy downloading games to upgrade equipment or compete with others.

The entire Internet cafe was filled with pungent second-hand smoke and body odor.

However, for Niu Xiangui at that age, it was paradise.

His love for the Internet also originated from this, although this love was gradually eliminated after he entered the industry.

But after learning that the Internet cafe where he was studying during the weekend was about to open for trial operation, Niu Xiangui felt that he had regained his love for surfing the Internet.

Therefore, on the opening day, as soon as the genius dawned, he couldn't wait to get out of bed and rush to the door of the Internet cafe.

Not to mention, the appearance of this Internet cafe, which He Chaoyang personally supervised the construction of, looks quite... like an Internet cafe.

It is sandwiched between the bathhouse and the cinema. There is a rectangular signboard hanging directly above the door, with five characters engraved on it - Internet Cafe on the other side, and there is a small paper taped to the wooden door.

Niu Xiangui went up to take a look and saw it written in Chinese characters that according to local regulations, minors are also allowed to enter.

The Internet cafe is not big and only has one floor. Niu Xiangui estimates that there are only a dozen or so seats in it. It's okay for now. In the future, when the number of time-travelers increases, it may not be that easy to find empty seats.

This is not because Li Yu is deliberately starving for marketing, but the main reason is that the [router with poor signal] he won at the annual meeting is an old router, with only a dozen machines in operation.

If we build a few more computers, it will probably go on strike first.

In order to allow every time traveler to have time to access the Internet, Li Yu even plans to adopt a lottery system in the future, and those who do not win will be postponed to the next round.

Niu Xiangui was holding the wooden door open and peeking inside furtively, when he was suddenly patted on the back. When he turned around, he found it was Lu Weijia.

It's not surprising that the latter would appear here. After all, Lu Weijia was an uploader who made ghost videos in his previous life, and he couldn't do without the Internet all day long.

The third person to arrive is Gu Qian, who plans to catch up on the TV series she failed to finish before she died.

Then there is Tan Yiting, whose Christian name is Paul. He is a chemistry teacher by profession and majored in materials science as a graduate student. He came to Greenfield about two months ago.

Li Yu appointed him as the director of Luye No. 1 Steel Plant, but Tan Yiting was still learning the language at this time and had to pass at least T4 before he could officially take up the post.

In addition, Ge Lipeng also asked him for some help when he made the gun.

Speaking of Ge Lipeng, he also came today and said he wanted to search and download some information online.

As for the person who arrived last, it surprised all the time-travelers.

According to Zhu Zhigang, when he was working as a security guard, he still used an elderly phone that could only make calls and send and receive text messages. He didn’t even have WeChat. He was obsessed with martial arts practice all day long.

When he first came here, Lu Weijia heard that he also practiced martial arts, so he chatted with him enthusiastically about the last legend in the martial arts world, Master Ma.

As a result, Zhu Zhigang looked confused and said that he had never heard of this name at all, but he heard that Teacher Ma had a set of five lightning whips that were particularly powerful, so he was quite interested in learning about it.

In Zhu Zhigang's own words, "In martial arts, the most taboo thing is to work behind closed doors. Only through constant competition, and competition with masters, can we learn from each other's strengths and make continuous progress."

However, Zhu Zhigang soon remembered that he had come to another world and could no longer make friends with the master surnamed Ma through martial arts, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

Seeing everyone staring at him, a look of confusion appeared on Zhu Zhigang's face.

"Haven't you all seen my wings?"

"It's not about the wings, Lao Zhu, we didn't expect you to come to the Internet cafe." Niu Xiangui said.

"What happened to the Internet cafe?" Zhu Zhigang became more and more confused, "I used to go there often."

"Ah? Why are you going to the Internet cafe?"

"Watch martial arts movies, martial arts novels, and learn kung fu online. There are a lot of secrets on the Internet, and they don't cost any money. It's very convenient." Zhu Zhigang said matter-of-factly.

…………

Finally, almost all the travelers arrived before the Internet cafe on the other side opened.

The earliest ones among them have been living in this continent for almost a year, and the ones who came later are only two or three weeks old.

Although most people are quite satisfied with their current lives, they are still somewhat nostalgic for another world they have lived in for decades.

You can also take this opportunity to go back and take another look.

The time-travelers waited for a while, and when the sun was about three o'clock in the morning, the Internet cafe finally opened.

Lu Weijia was the first to rush in, turned around and looked around, and couldn't help but feel happy.

There were twelve tables inside, with computers of all brands and models on them, not only desktops, but also laptops and even mini computers.

Most of them were picked up by [Environmental Frog].

In modern society, there is always no shortage of electronic waste, which is also a major source of waste for [Environmental Frog].

There are especially many computers and mobile phones. Li Yu has saved nearly fifty sets of mice and keyboards, which is enough to sustain the daily consumption of the Internet cafe.

Lu Weijia took a quick glance, picked the most fancy-looking desktop computer, and sat in front of it.

Because according to his common sense, generally those with two-dimensional girl stickers on the outside are game consoles, and their performance will be slightly better.

This is indeed the case. Lu Weijia then clicked on Master Lu and took a look, oh, this graphics card is still a 1050ti. Except for some new graphics card killer games, it can basically be played at 1080p.

Lu Weijia had completely forgotten about looking for video materials. He quickly downloaded Steam, logged into his account, and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Holy shit, I'm not blocked."

Ge Lipeng on the side also nodded in agreement, "I've also boarded the tubing."

"Perfect." Lu Weijia clicked on the game list. Forget about civilization. This thing can be played from sunrise to sunrise in one game. Forget about 2077. It can't be carried. Jelly Bean Man... This is good, but it seems impossible to kill.

Other players cannot win the championship and can only be server ghosts.

Lu Weijia looked at his game library and fell into deep thought.

Niu Xiangui on the other side looked at the familiar icons in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Even that thing called DingTalk doesn't look so annoying anymore.

Having said that, Niu Xiangui still clicked the mouse to start the resource manager and uninstalled it.

It feels like the desktop suddenly feels a lot cleaner.

What are you going to do next? Browse the forum for a while? Watch a movie? Or find a game to play like Lu Weijia?

Or maybe go and see those people you were familiar with in your past life?
