Chapter 203 Searching for Small Shops
[Player 6666: Looking to buy a mattress. DM me if you have one.]
[Player 29930: Haha, this guy clearly doesn't pay much attention to the public chat. Someone has already revealed the usage patterns of the personal shop. Scroll up and check your chat history.]
What are the usage patterns of small, privately owned shops?
She really didn't know; she should scroll up and look at the chat history.
There were just too many messages on the public chat. Lu Youyou would have to scroll through them manually for a long time before she had to ask Xiao Lu for help.
"Xiao Lu, find the patterns that others have summarized about small personal shops."
[Filtering chat logs for you containing the keywords "personal shop" and "pattern".]
Well, Xiaolu can't pinpoint specific information either; he can only search using keywords.
Looking at the tens of thousands of records, Lu Youyou's eyes were dazzled.
Suddenly, she noticed a record that started with "A review of the usage patterns of my personal shop..."
That's it!
Lu Youyou clicked on this paragraph to see the complete text.
[Player 89200: I've summarized the usage patterns of personal shops, it's all on this piece of paper, take a look for yourselves. [Photo]]
Lu Youyou clicked on the photo, which had three patterns written on it in pencil.
1. Clicking on the supplies in the backpack slot will not only bring up the "Use" function, but also the "Move to Personal Shop" function.
2. Some users don't know where the coupons came from, but the players received the amount of gold coins they ordered, and they don't know who made up the difference.
3. Type "personal shop" in the public chat box, along with what you want. After sending, all personal shops that meet the criteria will appear, and other people in the public chat will also be able to see your search results.
Lu Youyou decided to give it a try.
[Player 6666: My personal shop sells mattresses.]
Immediately after sending the message, a robot avatar appeared, with the nickname "Customer Service" and the account name "Aiteluyouyou".
He then recommended three shops to her.
No, it's not just three companies; there's a line of small print below the dialog box that says "Click to see more."
Click to see more, and hundreds of shops will appear on the page.
Click on the blank space again, and the hundreds of shops will be collapsed, with only three displayed on the screen.
The first family is Gu Jingchen, the second is Xu Yu, and the third is Flick.
For the same size mattress, Gu Jingchen sells it for 300 gold coins, Xu Yu sells it for 500 gold coins, and Flick sells it for 200 gold coins.
Lu Youyou checked the prices at other stores and found that Flick was selling the cheapest.
She clicked on the product details of Flick's sale, and just as she was about to buy it, she suddenly realized that the product name was wrong.
Looking to buy a used mattress/quilt for bedding. The original owner was a man, and there is blood on the mattress. If you don't mind, please buy it.
Great, Flick is honest, he even specified the second-hand and defective aspects.
But Lu Youyou chose not to buy it.
Besides Flick, Gu Jingchen was the cheapest, and this time Lu Youyou carefully examined the nickname.
She only paid after confirming that the mattress was new.
After buying the mattress, Lu Youyou searched for bed sheet vendors on the public chat.
Flick's used bed sheets were still the cheapest, while Gu Jingchen's new bed sheets were the second cheapest.
No wonder Gu Jingchen messaged me privately before, saying that it would be best to sell in large quantities at the same price point as him.
With such low prices, how many customers will they attract and how much money will they make?
If you sell your product cheaper than his and attract all the customers away, wouldn't that make you an enemy?
Flick was an exception. Although his items were cheaper than Gu Jingchen's, a quick look inside his shop revealed that they were mostly secondhand.
The two attracted different customer groups, so naturally there wasn't much conflict between them.
Anyway, Lu Youyou can't accept second-hand bed sheets, so even if Flick sells them for 1 gold coin, she won't buy them.
It just makes me feel uncomfortable.
Does anyone know what happened on that sheet?
She's not on the run, nor is she short of money; if she can buy something new, she should buy something new.
Lu Youyou spent 50 gold coins to buy a new bed sheet from Gu Jingchen's shop.
After laying out the mattress and sheets, Lu Youyou breathed a sigh of relief, finally relieved that she didn't have to worry about having nowhere to sleep.
After placing the blood-stained mattress on the ground into the decomposition device, Lu Youyou went out to the kitchen to make herself breakfast.
She wanted to have beef bone noodle soup for breakfast, but there were no noodles at home.
With a helpless sigh, Lu Youyou went to the public chat to find a noodle vendor.
This time, it wasn't Flick who sold the cheapest item, but Gu Jingchen.
One pound of noodles costs 50 gold coins, and Lu Youyou bought 5 pounds at once.
While cooking noodles, Lu Youyou couldn't help but think to herself that Gu Jingchen's previous statement about monopolizing product sales might actually come true.
After all, the three things she's currently lacking were all bought from Gu Jingchen.
With a large gang, he could collect or steal a lot of things, naturally enabling him to achieve high sales volume with low profit margins.
Although Lu Youyou envied Gu Jingchen for making money so quickly, she did not regret refusing Gu Jingchen's invitation.
Before coming to the survival world, she had already had enough of being a slave and didn't want to continue being a slave in the survival world.
Besides, she's living a pretty good life now.
You have close friends, adorable and protective pets, and a cozy and comfortable RV.
Eating whenever I want, playing whenever I want—it feels so good to have complete control over my time!
She was already very satisfied.
As I was thinking about it, the noodles were cooked.
She added a handful of lettuce leaves as a garnish, blanched it for about ten seconds, turned off the heat, and placed the pot directly on the table.
Since she's eating alone, there's no need to worry about etiquette.
Unless absolutely necessary, Lu Youyou is reluctant to wash dishes.
Eating noodles alone is a bit boring, and the darkness outside the window makes one feel uneasy.
Lu Youyou pulled up the privacy curtain on the car window and projected the screen onto it.
She needs to pay more attention to the messages on the public chat; she can't just live her life in isolation.
If you isolate yourself, not being able to snag any bargains is secondary; the real regret is if it jeopardizes your life.
[Hu Mi: Avoid this person, Lin Xuan. This girl used to be the campus belle of Huan University. She had a boyfriend named Lin Hao, but they broke up for some reason. Now Lin Xuan is hooking up with big shots on the public chat, both men and women. I was completely fooled by her!]
[Player 78930: My goodness, a school beauty! She must be so gorgeous! Does anyone have a picture? Post it so we can see.]
[Hu Mi: I posted this to warn others, not to give that bitch more followers!]
As Lu Youyou ate her noodles, she thought of Lin Xuan, who had cried and trembled in front of her back then, and suddenly felt a sense of unreality, as if it were a lifetime ago.
Lin Xuan isn't dead yet.
It's good to be alive; as long as you're alive, there's hope of escaping the game.
However, regarding Lin Xuan's method of surviving by deceiving powerful figures for supplies...
If Hu Mi didn't spread rumors, even if Lin Xuan really is that kind of person, Lu Youyou has no right to say anything.
Putting herself in Lin Xuan's shoes, she might very well make the same choice as Lin Xuan if she had no other options.
Living is all about the means and the results.
As for conscience and morality, they can only exist when one is living a stable life.
After drinking the last sip of soup, Lu Youyou looked at the curtain.
Hu Mi's profile picture went dark.
Everyone was talking about how Lin Xuan, enraged and humiliated, killed someone to silence them.
Lin Xuan, who was at the center of public opinion, personally stepped forward to explain.
[Lin Xuan: Let me tell you a secret, I just had fun with my boyfriend, how could I possibly commit murder? It was probably my fans who did it.]
Rick: Yes, Lin Xuan is my girlfriend. We were just being intimate. [Photo]
