"Make sure it’s tight enough."
"Wang Hai has a tight schedule, not much ti for etings. Before each eting, Li Ting takes a large amount of birth control pills to make sure she doesn’t get her period that day, and uses various ans like oral dication and injections to ensure her body is in top condition to give Wang Hai the perfect experience."
"That’s just a small part of what Li Ting does."
"Now, do you still think they’re sweet together?"
"Huh?"
Yan Yao was slightly taken aback, a bit in disbelief: "But I clearly feel that Wang Hai really loves Li Ting."
"Love?"
Ji Chuchu shook her head: "Wang Hai is ruthless too; to prevent Li Ting from getting pregnant to climb up in status, he went and got a vasectomy himself."
"What’s love got to do with it?"
"A lot of things are better left listened to as rumors."
"Before Li Ting climbed up, she trained for four years, learning nothing else but Dragon Slaying Skill."
"Any rich people before Doomsday, which one hasn’t been set up?"
"Including your father..."
Ji Chuchu paused for a mont and didn’t continue, just shook her head: "Forget it, let’s not talk about this. It doesn’t matter anymore; it’s all Doomsday now."
At this ti, Yan Yao also thought of her own father, sowhat dazed as she turned to look out the window and murmured.
"Chuchu, do you think my dad is still alive? He’s such a good person; he should have good karma, right?"
Ji Chuchu didn’t reply but just looked out at the scenery with a slight, hardly noticeable mocking smile.
...
In "Neon City".
The Train Captains were increasing, from the initial thirty to over ninety.
Mr. Li was sitting at a computer desk by the floor-to-ceiling window of a high-rise in "Sun City", quickly typing on the keyboard, looking at the account details on the side screen, creating a simple report.
"President Ai, isn’t the recruitnt bonus a bit too low?"
"Recruiting a newcor rewards 500 Fixed Star Coupons, which only attracts low-level trains and doesn’t appeal at all to high-level trains."
"Hmm."
Ai nodded seriously: "Master Mang’s idea is to give different recruitnt rewards for different levels of trains. For example, the recruitnt bonus for trains in the white area is 500 Fixed Star Coupons, while for the green area it’s 2000 Fixed Star Coupons."
"The higher the level of the train, the stronger the spending power."
"This is already set."
"Understood." Mr. Li nodded and continued earnestly working on the account details. At this ti, Neon City already had a reserve of 8.78 million units of iron ore, and this number fluctuated, sotis increasing, sotis decreasing.
So Train Captains, before exiting Neon City, would exchange their remaining Fixed Star Coupons for iron ore, with no intention of keeping the Coupons.
"President Ai, everyone doesn’t seem willing to keep Fixed Star Coupons in their balance. This puts a lot of pressure on Neon City’s iron ore reserves."
"Yes."
Ai nodded again: "Master Mang rejected the idea of not allowing a large amount of iron ore to be withdrawn at once or requiring advance reservations and such. This is Doomsday, not before Doomsday. Iron ore is the lifeblood of every train."
"If you can’t exchange Fixed Star Coupons for iron ore in ti, it would cause extre panic."
"Therefore, Master Mang’s idea is to set no barriers, allowing withdrawal at any ti, ensuring that everyone can quickly liquidate in tis of crisis. Initially, we’ll expand aggressively and disorderly, and when the user base reaches a certain stage, Admission Tickets won’t be handed out for free but must be purchased with Fixed Star Coupons."
"By then, Master Mang’s plan is to try deposit interest returns."
"But this plan is still in its infancy. After all, in Doomsday, crises are everywhere. No one would store iron ore even if the interest is higher as enhancing the train’s combat power instantly ensures a better chance of survival, so this plan might manifest in other ways in the future."
"Understood."
Mr. Li said nothing more and resud working on his accounts. He was now creating an automated spreadsheet, which would reduce his future workload considerably, as there’s no need for reporting here—rely accounting statistics, which isn’t a lot of work.
anwhile, Li Shiji was quickly designing on a nearby screen.
The next mont—
Chen Mang suddenly appeared in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and Mr. Li, Li Shiji, and the others quickly stood up: "Hello, Master Mang."
"Hmm."
Chen Mang nodded without saying much, just stood by the window leaning on his cane, looking down at the bustling scene below. After a mont, he chuckled lightly: "Don’t just stand here; go down and take a look. Integrating with the group helps you understand what they really want."
...
In the crowd.
Chen Mang walked down the street, looking at the Train Captains exploring around. He didn’t wear any disguises. Quite a few knew about the Fixed Star, and so had heard of Chen Mang, but not many had seen his face.
Even if they had seen it, so what? They can get in; can’t he?
If they insisted on wild associations, what could he do?
"Master Mang."
Li Shiji followed behind Chen Mang, explaining his thoughts: "When I was a ga designer in the past, I worked on many online gas, and their profits mainly ca from in-ga purchases."
"Although Neon City isn’t an online ga, it has many similar aspects."
"Of course—"
"We can’t profit through selling stats or costus, but... the biggest in-ga purchase project in online gas is lotteries!"
"We can create several lottery wheels."
"With just a small input of Fixed Star Coupons, there’s a chance to win big prizes."
