Chapter five hundred and sixtieth what are we doing
Ruiao naturally does not have it.
This is a tourist canteen. It is full of visitors from other worlds who are new to your land. Some of them have not yet completely come out of their "crazy" state. They behave like hyperactive children, touching here and there.
, was startled at the slightest movement, and was very noisy.
The canteen is large and can accommodate thousands of people dining at the same time, but it only has a few windows. The tableware is a common offline style, wooden, obviously hand-polished, and the corners are rough.
The sizes and specifications of disks cannot be unified.
The queue at the window was long. The tourists were excited, talking in low voices, and squirming forward slowly.
I am all looking forward to the first meal online. What will it taste like? Is it really as unpalatable as the players said?
Zhu Yuting and Hu Yang arrived earlier and were placed closer to the front of the queue. It was their turn within a short while.
Looking in from the window, I saw only several huge pots that looked like steel-making furnaces. The NPC chefs and helpers hired from the system were shirtless and sweating profusely from the work.
The big-bodied chefs "opened the floodgates to release the flood," and a suspicious, sticky, slightly greenish paste flowed out of the gates and filled several large wooden barrels.
Once the bucket was full, the four NPC chefs lifted them up with great effort and placed them on the chopping board in front of the window.
"ID card!"
The NPC aunt in the window who was in charge of distributing the meals banged the spoon and said.
Zhu Yuting: "Ah...ah, here."
The aunt took the card, looked at it, threw it back, poured a spoonful of the paste on the dinner plate, and then pushed it to the left.
Zhu Yuting quickly followed to the next window.
The person in charge of distributing food at this window was an uncle, I don't know if it was a real employee or a hired NPC. He put a small wooden bowl filled with water on the dinner plate and pushed it to the last window.
This window adds a long, brown object that looks like meat to the dinner plate, "Class A simple set meal, consumption 10 coppers"
Zhu Yuting: "Ah, you still need money? I don't have any."
"Keep accounts first and settle the accounts at the end of the month."
"...No, it's not free?"
"Do you want it for free?" At the last window, a guy who was obviously a real employee asked with a smile, "You can do it for free if you want, just come to the canteen and help out."
"It doesn't have to be free, it doesn't have to be free!" Hu Yang followed her and pulled her away, "You are stupid, free things are the most expensive."
Zhu Yuting said oh, and she and Hu Yang found a simple dining table to sit down.
"I don't want to eat it!" Hu Yang looked at the so-called 'Class A simple set meal' in front of him and said hesitantly, "It looks like dark cuisine."
A tourist sitting next to Zhu Yuting leaned over and said, "Isn't this dark cuisine? I heard... the ingredients are all cut by players from monsters."
"Ah?", Hu Yang's eyes widened.
"Like goblins, kobolds, murlocs... maybe there are also zombies and zombie meat."
"Ugh!" Hu Yanggang put a mouthful in his mouth and spat it out after hearing the words.
"Don't listen to his nonsense!" Zhu Yuting hurriedly patted Populus euphratica on the back to cheer her up, and glared at the man: "If others can eat it, we can eat it too. What if we don't eat it? Are we going to starve to death?"
"Hehe." The man smiled, turned around and scooped a spoonful of the paste into his mouth.
They all stopped to look at his face.
The man sighed and said, "It's okay. I can't say it tastes too bad. It just smells like preservatives."
Hu Yang breathed a sigh of relief and saw that Zhu Yuting had already begun to eat, so she had no choice but to take a spoonful of it with a heroic look, "You guy!" She gave the person next to her an angry look.
"Let's get to know each other, Fang Qinghong, how about you?" The man smiled and stretched out his hand.
Zhu Yuting stretched out her hand to hold it lightly, and said slightly implicitly, "Zhu Yuting."
"Populus euphratica!"
"We all know each other."
The food wasn't too... unpalatable, it was still tolerable, and it had the bonus of being the first online meal, even though I felt a little nauseous and tired at the end of the meal.
The kind of greasiness that leaves a greasy feeling in your mouth and esophagus after you eat it.
"Don't think I'm scaring you. In fact, many ingredients are 'collected' by players when they are killing monsters. Do you know how to collect them? We will probably have to do this kind of work more often in the future, as well as cooking. The most important thing for tourists is
Just living supplies and logistical support, most of the tasks are these."
"Do you seem to understand?"
"My brother is a player, and I help him make decisions on many things. For Canaan, I am the clear one."
"Then I'll be asking more of you from now on."
"It's easy to talk, it's easy to talk. I'm from Wucheng and you are from Linfen. We are all from the same area. We are all fellow villagers."
After finishing their first meal online while chatting and laughing, the three of them returned the tableware together. At this time, the canteen was already full of tourists, and it looked very lively.
Zhu Yuting whispered: "It's just like a dream."
Fang Qinghong: "Let's go, let's go, there is everything in the dream"
Zhu Yuting broke away from his hand: "You..."
Hu Yang: “What shall we do next?”
Zhu Yuting: "Yes, no one has arranged it?"
Fang Qinghong: "What to do? Of course it's to do tasks to make money."
Hu Yang: "Since you know, you can arrange it."
Fang Qinghong: "Watch it for me."
As soon as the three people came out of the cafeteria, a player suddenly opened the door from the courtyard of a house. When they met each other, the dwarf player smiled and walked away.
"Doing tasks." Fang Qinghong said.
"Shall we go for a walk in the city?" Hu Yang suggested.
These tourists have been wandering around the living area since they got online. On the way to the dormitory, they briefly passed by a busy street. Populus Hu's proposal was exactly what they wanted.
We walked along the well-connected path towards the main city and got lost after walking for a while. There were exactly the same houses everywhere, so it was easy to get lost.
It was Populus euphratica that pointed to the tall spire in the distance that surpassed all the buildings. Using it as a reference, he walked out of the living area of one house after another, merged from the small road behind a shop into the main road of the main city, and came to a lively street.
, a bustling commercial street.
In the middle of all kinds of players and NPCs, I heard a sharp whistle and an NPC guard lined up the crowd. Populus euphratica staggered when he couldn't dodge. He rushed into a store behind him and captured a human thief player.
"Okay, you can do it, let's see what happens next!"
The thief player is very arrogant. After being twisted by the guard, he turned around and yelled at the player shopkeeper who followed him.
The player's shopkeeper yelled: "Gan, you steal things and you feel superior? Come on, I'm afraid of you!?"
"Have the guts!"
"Brothers, I will definitely look for this company from now on."
"How dare you offend our Liangshang gentleman family!"
"Don't want to do business anymore."
"Specialize in stealing from this house and steal everything."
"..."
The player shop owner looked at the sudden appearance of so many thieves with an ugly face. He twisted his expression several times with difficulty, and finally showed a smile and chased after the NPC guard.
Since the shop owner dropped the charges and Ben voluntarily paid the 'fine', the thief player was acquitted.
"I'm doing a mission to steal something from you. That's because I think highly of you."
"Yes, yes, yes, little brother, I can't see Taishan..."
The two of them walked into the store, and the players who were watching the excitement outside were not surprised and turned into birds and beasts.
"No, how can we do it like this?" Hu Yang said, looking at the backs of the thieves players who left arrogantly.
"The gaming atmosphere has long since deteriorated." Fang Qinghong, who is well-informed, said, "That's why we are so anxious to get it online."
"How can we change the atmosphere by going online?" Hu Yang didn't understand.
"We are in charge of the server!" Fang Qinghong said, "There is no system in the head, and I signed a contract of betrayal. The national server can do whatever they want."
"Unfair!" Hu Yang pouted and said, "Are the players superior to others?"
"We are here to play. To play, do you understand what we are here for?"
Zhu Yuting: "We are here to experience life... and make money."
"Yes, the nature is different." Fang Qinghong took the opportunity to grab Zhu Yuting's hand, "Let's go, what's there to see?"
"Tell me well, why are you moving your hands and feet?" Populus euphratica slapped him away.
Zhu Yuting's face was feverish, and Fang Qinghong smiled playfully as if nothing happened, "Go and have a look over there, it's lively there."
If you ignore some details, it feels like you are on a huge ancient studio that combines Chinese and Western styles. The architecture is Chinese, the equipment and clothing style are Canaanite, the racial appearance is indeed Western fantasy, and the conversation is modern...
…
Lively, very lively, dizzyingly lively, there are many shops and vendors, including NPCs and players, trading, quarreling, conflicting, filming in the street, you can hear a whistle every once in a while,
Some players were thrown into system prisons. When the three of them crossed the 100-meter-long street and merged into the center of the city, the square in front of the gate of the city lord's palace became even more lively.
At a glance, they are all stalls set up by players, with all kinds of signboards, and it feels like you are in a lively pedestrian and food court.
On the stall, some people are present and some are not. A simple container is symbolically placed under the small signboard that represents the function of the stall. Customers do not need to contact the shop owner, they can just "click" on the signboard with their consciousness, and then the shop owner will appear.
Items sold and purchased at this stall.
There are at least a thousand stalls arranged in a square grid like a parking space. Each square grid is only two meters long and one meter wide, with a pedestrian passage in the middle. It is roughly estimated that there are no less than a thousand stalls.
Populus euphratica: "Wow, so spectacular!"
Fang Qinghong said, "Why does it look like a rubbish online game? Haha... so kind."
Zhu Yuting had already 'clicked' on the nearest stall sign and looked at it curiously.

"Wow, that's a lot of money!"
Before Zhu Yuting finished reading, Hu Yang looked at the purchase and sale prices, and little stars appeared in his eyes, but Fang Qinghong said, "Don't look at it, we don't have any share in these things."
"What's wrong? Isn't mining and collection just what tourists do?" Populus euphratica shouted.
"Mining? Do you have the stamina?" Fang Qinghong asked, "Can you drink the stamina potion? Do you have general mining skills? And...does the national server let you dig?"
Hu Yang held back his mouth.
"Without physical strength, how many times can you swing a hoe? Without mining and gathering skills, you have to rely on your own eyesight, experience and luck. Besides, what to do if you encounter monsters, what to do if NPCs and players rob, and we don't have free resurrections.
The number of times is 20 silver per death, and you can only die 3 times a day. If you exceed the number, you will really lose your qualifications as a tourist."
"Then what can we do?" Zhu Yuting asked.
"Here, look over there!"
Among the bustling pedestrians, there were some players and NPCs carrying various accessories, selling food and drinks. Because the passenger flow was very high and every business was very good, they were stopped by stall owners and players on both sides from time to time.
"And over there!"
Fang Qinghong pointed to a booth diagonally in front of a recruitment booth. The signboard said: "A certain workshop is recruiting workers. Piece-rate wages are required. Both long-term and short-term workers are required. It is a workshop owned by a big gang. It is exclusively provided within the gang. The salary is generous. Special car transportation. Free and convenient. Also
There are quota quotas for joining this big gang, so don’t miss it if you pass by.
Several tourists have already asked in front of the stall.
"Let's go, don't look at it. We who have signed the contract of sale have to work for the national service first."
"But what can we do?"
"We can do a lot more, you will know later."
"Then why don't you go shopping?"
"Next time, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
"They won't let us tighten the screws, right? I won't do it."
"You are overthinking. There are no screws for you to tighten. It is most likely farming."
"ah?"
"Is it true that when we go online, we will be their tenants?"
"What do you think?"
"I won't do it."
"I won't do it either."
On the issue of not being tenants, Zhu Yuting and Hu Yang were highly consistent. Fang Qinghong smiled and said: "You are very brave, but you must hold on later, don't be fooled a few times and forget everything." This chapter has been completed!
