Chapter 152 Beach
Today when Qingyi was at work, another unpleasant thing happened. A customer complained - this time it was not directed at an employee - saying that the company's charges were too high, and there were more than a dozen similar complaint calls.
Qingyi was a little puzzled by this.
Take a McDonald's hamburger set as an example (although McDonald's has its own delivery staff), the price of the hamburger, French fries and Coke is between 5 and 8 US dollars; the restaurant has to pay 2% of the price of the fast food, so it is
10 cents - 16 cents. The customer pays a fixed $1 as shipping fee, and a 15% tip is calculated based on the shipping cost. In other words, the customer pays $1.15 cents. Adding the above two items, the company earns
Take 10 cents on the dollar - 16 cents on the dollar, and the employee earns 15 cents (not counting wages).
Compared with competitors, this price is really cheap. Why is it said to be too high? There must be some problem.
While Qingyi was thinking about it, Todd ran into the office angrily and said angrily: "What guy, you only give 10 cents as a tip? I have never seen such a stingy person! Does your mother limit your pocket money?"
What are you looking at!" The last sentence was directed at Qingyi.
Qingyi shrugged, turned to Lucy and said, "Hey, Lucy! Let's play a game, okay?"
"What game?" Lucy picked up the coffee cup and asked with interest. It was past the peak period now, so the operator didn't have to be busy working.
"Take the ruler." Qingyi took a ruler that had been prepared long ago and began to explain.
The way to play is this: one person holds the ruler (the ruler must be straight toward the ground), and the other person stretches out his hand, slightly spreading his thumb and index finger. Once the ruler falls, he must quickly pinch the two fingers together to make the ruler
It will not fall. This little game is actually a test of reaction strength. The reaction speed is evaluated according to the position of the ruler held by the fingers. The lower the position, the better the reaction.
"Oh, okay, just practice your reactions." Lucy laughed and scolded: "It's very simple, why do you have to talk so long? I almost fell asleep when I heard you talk."
"Easy? Oh, no, no, no, no, you underestimate it. Stretch your hand over first." Asking Lucy to get into position, Qingyi raised the ruler: "Because this time to let go is up to me. You
I don’t know when I will let go, so——”
Qingyi had already let go, but Lucy immediately pinched the lower end of the ruler without letting the ruler go even half a centimeter past her fingertips. She laughed dumbly: "Isn't this very simple!"
"..." Qingyi took the ruler: "Let's do it again! The reaction of a trained expert only takes 0.15 seconds, but ordinary people like us who have not been trained will slow it down to 0.3 seconds or even 0.4 seconds. As for the reaction,
After that, it takes about 0.2 seconds to close the fingers together. So, the winner is decided within one second——"
"Ah, I caught it again." Lucy raised the ruler and caught it perfectly as before.
"...I can only say that your reaction is very quick."
Lucy put the ruler on the table and continued drinking coffee: "Haha, Zhang, I'm not trying to hit you, but this game is really easy. Why are you training your reactions?"
"Because I am too weak." Qingyi said casually.

night.
Qingyi closed the window and drew the curtains. The reason why he did these things when there was no sunshine was because the Jewish girl downstairs - Dora Wollwitz - was with the unknown gang.
His friends held a party with the speakers turned up to the maximum. Qingyi suspected that if the party lasted until 11 o'clock in the evening, Superman would fly over and punish these guys. At this moment, Qingyi hoped from the bottom of his heart that Superman would not only be a comic character, but a comic character.
It is a real existence.
The best way to solve this kind of problem is to enter "Qiankun" as usual. The sound insulation of the holographic helmet is very good, so as long as you wear it, you will not be disturbed by noise.
As soon as he went online, Qingyi received a message from Orquila. Oscol had contacted Perls, and the two began to help each other. Perls's Twilight Cult could help Oscol collect intelligence, and in turn, Oscol
Skoll has the ability to hide the entire Twilight Sect. Driven by fate, the Twilight Sect is developing into an intelligence agency and becoming Qingyi's eyes and ears. Qingyi believes that the potential of this organization is more than that, and it should be used even more in the future.
widely.
The living players who had tasted the benefits of the Battle of Aialotis also spared no effort to sneak attacks in the Blackstone Valley after the war. They wanted to earn experience points and honor points. Of course, it would be better if they could kill the King of the Undead.
Several members of the Necromancer Players Guild stood on the front line, cooperating with the infantry regiment led by Nafu to intercept the enemy. This camp conflict had no highlights, it was still a tug-of-war. Many Necromancer players were killed several times.
It is impossible to lose levels anymore, but there are also some Necromancer players with good PK skills who have upgraded several levels in a row and climbed to the top of the Necromancer player rankings. By the way, Qingyi is currently level 34, ranking fourth on the list.
The first one is still black and sharp.
Several living player guilds that participated in the Battle of Aialotis got Osgilia as they wished. Because the city residents and nearby residents were all slaughtered by undead creatures, the Shattered Silver Lake and the Warm Woodland were also destroyed.
It was completely destroyed (it is expected that the orchard will not produce fruit in the next five years), Orquila has given up on this area. The living players use Osgilia as their base, constantly passing through the "Ring of Fracture", and
Launch an attack on undead players.
But Qingyi didn't worry about it. These guerrillas without the organization of Bald Eagle would not be able to make any big waves at all. They could only fight guerrilla warfare. But fighting guerrillas in the Paradise of the Dead? Every second you lose blood,
How can we fight guerrillas when we can drink a pot of water? This offensive is not too big or too small, just enough to train Neveu.
Then, what Qingyi has to do is to prepare for the trip to Fuli Villa. The expected people to travel are: himself, Manager Jont, So'er, and Schroeder Bray who can't afford to go early, a total of four people. Before he
After leaving, there will be a power vacuum in the Twilight Empire, and there will even be many difficulties in daily work, so Frankie stays in the "Waiting City" and uses absolute force to suppress the situation until he returns.
Frankie did not accept the appointment immediately, but raised his head and asked Qingyi: "Master, do you still believe in me?"
Qingyi just said: "No matter what happens, I believe in you."

After the arrangement was completed, the group of four people took the "Fermat Airship" and headed to Snow White City. Suo'er had been grounded by Director Jonte, and she was extremely happy to be able to take the airship this time. Little stars flashed in her eyes, and she was very happy.
It didn't stop. Schroeder Bray sat down cross-legged, opened the sash bag, and counted the gold coins in a very eye-catching manner: "Three hundred and thirty, three hundred and thirty-five..." The most shocking thing was Jonte
Manager, even though he has never been on an airship, he can still stand upright - you must know that this is an altitude of 2,500 meters.
In less than an hour and a half, the airship has flown over Snow White City. The facilities in Snow White City have already reached a large scale. Although there is not a living player yet, the popularity is also very high. All the undead players who are leveling in the Xinghui Ocean offshore will be there.
You can buy potions or repair equipment. But judging from the current situation, I don’t know when and what month will any living beings set foot in Snow White City?
"It seems we are early." After landing at the port, Qingyi shrugged. Looking around, there was no shadow of the ghost fleet on the sea. But he didn't care, but winked at his daughter and said with a smile:
"Sor, let's go to Xinghui Ocean to play in the water!"
"Okay!" Suo'er was already excited to come to the beach, and even more excited when her father said she could go into the water. She pulled her father's arm, and her laughter spread like a fragrance: "I want to pick it up.
shell!"
The steward hurriedly said: "Your Highness, there are various aquatic monsters in the sea, it is not safe——"
"It's okay. We're not going to deal with the human army. There won't be any danger!" Qingyi was dragged by the arm by Suo'er and shouted as he ran: "If you're really worried, just come with us!"
Seeing the two ancestors, one big and one small, running madly towards the seaside, Jonte sighed, and then asked Schroeder Bray beside him: "Mr. Schroeder, do you want to go with us?"
"Humph, activities without profit are boring, thank you." Schroeder waved his hand.
"In that case, please excuse me."
The sand at Bai Xuecheng Beach is really as white and as fine as snow, in sharp contrast to the dead clouds in the sky. The slightly turbid sea water is surrounded by magnolia-like waves, dancing, cheering, and singing never tiredly.
, like a group of children who have not grown up.
Qingyi rolled up his sleeves and trouser legs, put his cloak, crown, and scepter into his storage bag, and then walked on the beach. He looked like an ordinary young man. The sea water flowed over the instep of his feet, and then slowly
The ground receded from under his feet. Even as an undead creature with a slow sense of touch, Qingyi could still feel the subtle touch of particles moving under his feet. He couldn't help but look back and saw that he was walking out of two rows of shallow footprints. The trajectory of this path was
The tail end has slowly disappeared into the sea water, as if being swallowed by time.
"Dad! Does this look good?" So'er stepped on the water and came to the front, as happy as a bird. Her big eyes were shining. In her hand was a somewhat broken ordinary shell, but she still cherished it.
Zhongzhi was held in both hands, and her cheeks were stained with sea water.
"It looks good." Qingyi couldn't help but smile.
So'er was even happier. She carefully and carefully put the shells into the small glass bottle, and then continued to run around. She had taken off her shoes and socks, and her white little feet stepped on the waves, making them snap.
The hem of her skirt got wet, but she didn't pay attention at all. Her fragrant laughter was everywhere on the beach, and many leveling players couldn't help but stop for it.
Manager Jonte held So'er's socks in one hand and So'er's shoes in the other, looking helplessly at the bird-like figure. As he walked on the beach, he shouted: "Your Highness, be careful, don't fall."
It's cooked!" Although his voice was anxious, Qingyi noticed that the old man had a smile on his face.
"Hey June Sunshine."
Someone said hello, but it was the president of "Indigo Star Trace", Deadly Stinger. He was holding a long bow and standing in the waist-deep sea water, with some hesitation on his face: "Where are you going?"
"Let's go out and go to the blood elves' lair. What?" Qingyi noticed the other person's expression, put away his smile, and asked.
"With the leveling area, we..." Deadly Stinger stopped talking.
"Do we still want to be hostile to living beings?" Qingyi shook his head: "Absolutely. If we compromise with ourselves here, we can only achieve nothing. I know that you have a stable and conservative personality, but when you make up your mind, these personality traits are counterproductive
It’s a flaw. We agreed—”
"'We will come back, we will take back everything'!" Deadly Stinger gritted his teeth. "I will not hesitate any longer. Since I have chosen this path, I must be conscious."
"Yes, this is our only choice."
Qingyi turned his head and saw the deathly clouds rolling in from the sky, and also saw the red sailboat rising from the sea level, which was so red that it stung your eyes.
