In the lounge, amidst Kisara's pleading, Liu Yuan's laughter, and Jibril's calm tea drinking, the Internet cafe was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
Leticia asked curiously, "Is the boss always like this?"
"No, it's just that Kisara often finds herself in trouble. Kisara is a veteran, and others who get into trouble won't be treated as well as she is," replied Jibril.
"Good treatment?" Leticia asked.
Jibril sat back in her chair, looking at the ceiling. "When the boss is angry, he won't care about our feelings and will just hang us up."
Takashima Yuuna asked curiously, "The boss gets angry?"
"How did you make him angry?" asked Leticia.
"It's not just me! It's us!" Jibril clarified.
"So it was you and Kisara," Takashima Yuuna said, instantly understanding.
Takashima Yuuna had a very good impression of Liu Yuan. Although he could be unreliable at times, he always gave practical suggestions for work or when there were any questions.
In the memories of Takashima Yuuna and Chelsea, Liu Yuan would only reprimand the troublesome ones, and his tolerance for them was surprisingly high.
Observing this scene, Leticia didn't know what to say. She felt like she had entered a den of troublemakers, but she had no chance to escape.
Besides, looking at the people around her, it seemed that only Kisara and Jibril were not in good condition. No, Jibril was in good condition; she was not angry or furious at all, just felt helpless.
Now, Leticia was looking forward to working in this store. In the lounge, Kisara's screams gradually disappeared.
Liu Yuan clapped his hands and walked out. "Newcomer, there's still some time before the store opens. I will teach you how to use the network manager's authority to query data and the functions of some games in the Internet cafe. While you're not familiar with these game functions, Kisara and I will stay in the branch store to teach you temporarily."
Jibril showed a shocked expression. "Is it this a repeat of this time again?"
"Yes, you're in charge of the store again."
"Okay," Jibril spoke, feeling uninterested. The main store didn't need her to do much. When Liu Yuan wasn't there, the main store temporarily stopped accepting new customers. New faces were usually brought by the regulars, and Jibril could easily answer any questions they had.
Having played all the games and passed them, she knew exactly where to find beautiful scenery, interesting people, and useful weapons and items in the games. This level of knowledge was enough to guide newcomers.
However, Jibril couldn't help but complain, "Why do you always bring Kisara with you? it's making me feel like Kisara has become your mistress."
"No, it's just that Kisara is used to it, and shes's too convenient for a tool," Liu Yuan replied.
Kisara, who emerged from the lounge, said in a gloomy tone, "I don't want to know this truth!"
"What? Did you hear it?" Liu Yuan asked.
"Woo woo woo, I'm moved!" Kisara cried.
With a lively welcome ceremony, Leticia became the branch manager. However, the branch had not been established yet, and Liu Yuan needed time to set it up.
"Old rules, start with six machines."
"Let's try changing the layout... forget it, let's keep it the same. A unified layout will help manage traffic in the future. The lounge needs to be expanded, and expanding it later will be troublesome..."
Liu Yuan didn't know how to complain. Whether it was the main store or the branch, people would often pay to use the machines but then go to sleep. Among them, Kumoko slept the most. According to her, sleeping here was more comfortable than sleeping for hundreds of years in reality.
It took three hours to complete the branch setup. Liu Yuan checked the time—thirteen minutes to midnight.
"Are new games going to be refreshed? Let me see what new games can refresh."
As if to celebrate the beautiful day, the discounted games refreshed this month were surprisingly unique.
*Special offer games:*
1. Dad N' Me
2. Titanfall 2
When Liu Yuan saw the first name, he thought he had seen it wrong. He never expected this game to appear. It wasn't particularly good or bad, just useful.
But Titanfall 2...
This gave Liu Yuan a bad feeling, similar to The Witcher 3. If this game required a complete series to play, it would be problematic.
"System, do I need to complete a series for Titanfall 2?"
"No, you can get the BT-7274 core by completing the single-player story. You will have all the experiences of the player in the game, and the system will supplement the corresponding data of the player's world."
"That's great! The rewards of this game are fantastic."
Now Liu Yuan wanted to hug Leticia and kiss her. She was simply his lucky star. Last time, he posted posters, prayed to deities and took a shower and changed clothes, but only managed to get the Outlast series.
This time, there was not enough time for that, but he got a good game for free?
Yes, in Liu Yuan's opinion, this game was free.
Buying a big game again was an astonishing 2.48 million. Since there were not enough people now, Liu Yuan did not spend on the game.
It takes more than a month to save nearly 2.5 million, and this is just now. Buying it twice more and reaching 10 million would be terrifying.
However, before having 10 million funds to buy the game, Liu Yuan felt that expanding a few more branches was more practical. More branches bring more money, and the speed of people going in will be faster.
First, set a small goal: strive to expand the number of branches to five while completing the task of daily sales of 200,000. With Titanfall, Liu Yuan felt confident he could complete his task.
With a goal in mind, Liu Yuan was full of confidence for the future.
In the Internet cafe, everyone was teaching the newcomer how to operate the system and play games. The first game played was still Resident Evil, and the last one was Elden Ring. The rewards from these two games were the easiest to obtain, which could be achieved by playing, making them very suitable for recommending to newcomers.
Although newcomers might not be able to pass the levels and might struggle even with the first enemies, they didn't need to worry. If they couldn't beat them, they could explore the world on horseback to get weapons and equipment, which were basically free loot.
While everyone was teaching the newcomer, Liu Yuan came out.
"Everyone, a new game is launched. The process is relatively short. You can go online to familiarize yourself with it."
"New game?"
"Short process?"
"What is the reward?"
Liu Yuan sat next to Kisara and introduced, "Titanfall 2, a sci-fi mecha theme. The unlocked props are various weapon mods available for Titans. After completing the game, you will unlock the Titan core and get the basic Titan design."
Kisara couldn't help but complain, "Blueprint design? Can it be made?"
"Yes, just throw the required materials into the system. If you don't have the materials, you can buy them in the player mall," Liu Yuan explained.
"Wait? Buy?" Kisara grasped the key word.
"Yes, the mall will sell Titan parts. Those who can't get them can buy them directly. However, this does not count as our revenue. This game also has a PVP mode, which can unlock more Titan weapons and soldiers' special weapons and equipment. It's very practical," Liu Yuan explained.
According to the system explanation, this was the right to sell accessories obtained through cooperation with other worlds, and Liu Yuan could only get a share. The funds required to build all materials for a Titan were about 800,000 yuan, and Liu Yuan could only get 3% of the share.
However, the downside was obvious. If a newcomer bought a Titan directly, they might not be able to afford it even with their life savings. The only way for a newcomer to quickly make a Titan was if there were corresponding basic materials in their world. In that case, they could buy a few special materials from the mall and make a Titan for around 100,000.
