“Binge-Watching TV Dramas in this World?” Fang Qi glanced at the System Interface.
He had published the official Diablo novel for this task, but he almost forgot it after the exciting trip to Jingshi.
The target for this task was the activation number of games and movies.
By this time, the targets were reached.
The task reward was the Jade Dynasty (Zhu Xian) TV Series, and two episodes would be updated each Monday and Tuesday.
Meanwhile, the System Interface had another notice, [Four episodes will be released on the first day.]
Fang Qi checked the date and saw that today was Sunday.
In other words, the first four episodes would be aired tomorrow.
However…
Fang Qi remembered that others couldn’t watch the Resident Evil movie, and he wondered if he could use the big screen for livestream.
It sounded far-fetched, but Fang Qi still asked the System.
To his surprise, the System replied to him, [You can livestream two episodes each week, and it must be after 8 o’clock in the night. Meanwhile, the movie could also be put on the livestream, but you have to wait a month.]
Livestreaming shows and movies would have no effects on one’s strength; people could only watch them for fun.
Fang Qi’s face twitched. The 8 o’clock Prime-Time?
At the same time, Fang Qi saw a reminder of an accomplishment of a task on the System Interface.
[Achieved Accomplishment: An enjoyment in life
Accomplishment Reward: Coke, 3 crystals/bottle]
“Well, where did this task come from?”
At this moment, Fang Qi received Song Qingfeng and others’ messages. [Sir! We will be touring Jingshi tonight! Come and join us!”
Fang Qi’s face twitched and he replied, [Forget it! I’m back in Jiuhua now!]
Then, a line of words appeared beneath the achievement, [For the gamers who truly enjoy games.]
Then, he saw another notification, [Privilege increased, activating the virtual environment in the Super Theater and unlocking some of the possible actions. Now, the players can eat snacks while watching content.]
What is this virtual environment? One can even eat snacks?!
Fang Qi’s face turned dark. “What about me? I worked hard to do the livestream and comprehended the techniques quickly. Don’t I get any reward?”
The System replied, [Privilege increased, improving the internet cafe functions and activating the renovation of the dorm room.]
“Renovation of the dorm room?” Fang Qi remembered that the System had only renovated the internet cafe after the roof collapse incident and didn’t do any obvious improvement to the upstairs bedrooms. “No more similar incidents will happen after the dorm room is renovated, right?”
[No, it won’t happen again.]
“Privilege increased, activating employee benefits. The owner can issue redemption coupons to employees, and the coupons can be used in the internet cafe for any service or product under five crystals. Each employee can only get one couple each month, and the coupons can’t be used to trade for crystals.]
Now, Fang Qi was more like an owner since he could give employee benefits.
Although it wasn’t his own benefit, Fang Qi still nodded to show his appreciation.
“Privilege increased, increasing your share of income by 0.3%.”
“You’re such a cheapskate! The share percentage increased from 10% to 10.3%?!”
Fang Qi remembered that the System always took 90% of the income!
On second thought, if he had gotten this privilege in the past, he would have had 300 more crystals in his own pocket.
At this thought, he felt like it wasn’t a bad deal after all.
Thinking of money, Fang Qi began to imagine buying a house in the center of Jingshi later on.
After all, before he traveled to this world, one of his dreams was buying a home in the Capital City.
[Please work hard to increase your privilege,] the System said again.
Besides a house, he would buy a vehicle. However, now that he could fly on a sword, a car could no longer satisfy his needs.
Suddenly, Fang Qi remembered the possibility of getting the Wuchen Sword which belonged to Li Xiaoyao and wondered when the System would reward it to him.
Then, he glanced on the System Interface and saw that the task of mastering the skill of flying on sword was still waiting for him to finish, so he immediately flew out to get some practice.
During the night, Fang Qi took Mu Donglai back to Jingshi while he practiced a bit more, giving the latter the luxurious experience of chauffeur service.
…
– The next day –
As usual, Fang Qi opened the shop at 8 AM. Obviously, he had more customers than usual. Even though it was still early morning, the internet cafe got lively the moment it opened.
For example, Dong Qingli came here very early morning so that she didn’t have to wait in line. Some customers even noticed that the Wind and Moon Pavilion had removed its restrictions set on the Origins Internet Cafe.
At this moment, Dong Qingli and Zhang Wanyu had just arrived at the door of the internet cafe.
“Master, we’ll stop suppressing the shop?” Looking at the lively atmosphere in and outside of the internet cafe, Zhang Wanyu whispered to Dong Qingli, “Then, we’ll have to get up early each morning and wait in line…”
Dong Qingli was so frustrated that she felt like crying. “After watching yesterday’s livestream, do you think the suppression will be effective?”
“You’re right…” Zhang Wanyu was also frustrated. From the looks of it, they had to get up early each day. Otherwise, they couldn’t even be early in line.
When they pushed open the door and entered the shop, they saw the new items written in colored chalk at the top of the small blackboard.
[Today’s New Items: Jade Dynasty (Zhu Xian) TV Series, 3 crystals/episode; Coke, 3 crystals/bottle.]
“Sir, you have new stuff today?!” Their eyes lit up.
“But… what is TV Series? What is Coke?” Dong Qingli furrowed her pretty eyebrows in bafflement.
“Coke is a drink similar to Sprite,” Fang Qi explained, “As to TV series… We have released a movie here. It is similar to that but longer. It is broken into many chunks.”
Dong Qingli had heard of Sprite since some customers kept comparing it with the drinks at the Wind and Moon Pavilion, but she hadn’t tried it before. Hearing that this new item was similar to Sprite, she immediately said, “We’ll take two bottles of Coke!”
“Xiaoyue! Get two bottles of Coke for them!”
Jiang Xiaoyue came with two bottles of Coke and put straws in them.
They took one sip of it, and a thrilling sensation stimulated each taste buds on their tongues with jumping bubbles. Compared with the crisp taste of the Sprite, Coke was more intense and more thrilling!
“So good!” Dong Qingli squinted her eyes and exclaimed, feeling like her mood was instantly lifted!
“Damn it! I want to finish this before playing games…” Zhang Wanyu said, “But we’ll have no seats left if we don’t grab them now!”
“It doesn’t matter,” Fang Qi said, “When the Super Theater is activated, you can watch the drama while eating snacks.”
