Chapter 97: A Big Move, over 900,000,000 likes!
“My lord, the video is ending soon. Give me a chance. I can still get a surge of likes!” Dong Wei begged.
He had yet to use his ultimate technique.
“Up to you. Don’t go too far.”
Lin Ye waved his hand and canceled the option which only allowed his own people to buy the items.
Now that he had accomplished his goal, he did not really care anymore.
It was reasonable to give some benefits to the people who supported him.
As long as he waited for the likes mission to end and concluded it, followed by finding treasure chests and rare treasures, the market mission would be completed perfectly.
Whistle—-
“My lord, the water is boiling. Try my skills.”
At the same time, Xue Xianyao steeped the tea elegantly. She held a pair of metal tweezers in her hand and heated the teacup with boiling water.
Meeting Lin Ye’s curious gaze, she chuckled and explained, “Making tea is an art. You have to warm the pot first, wake the tea, rinse it, offer the tea, then taste it.”
“I know, I just purely like to watch pretty girls make tea.” Lin Ye laid on the sofa with his hand supporting his head as he smiled.
“My lord, you really like to tease. There are so many pretty ladies in the territory. I’m stupid and don’t know anything.” Xue Xianyao’s pretty face was slightly red. Although she said that, her actions were well-practiced. Clearly, she had long carved the Way of Tea into her bones.
A moment later, she handed him a cup of freshly brewed Pu’er and said expectantly, “My lord, please try it.”
“Mm.”
Lin Ye made a sound of acknowledgment and picked the cup up. He covered the cup and took a light sniff.
The fragrance of the tea was refreshing.
He lifted the tea lid and saw that the tea was bright-colored and rich.
The tea base was full and soft, smooth and beautiful.
It looked pretty good.
Lin Ye lowered his head and took a sip. His eyes lit up.
The texture was fragrant and sweet.
The 15,000 reputation points were not wasted. It was expensive for a reason.
He closed his eyes and drank it all in one go, feeling that the bad taste from killing zombies had mostly disappeared.
“The lord looks so bold and generous when he drinks tea. Let me give you another cup.”
Xue Xianyao smiled knowingly and took the cup from Lin Ye before rinsing the teacup.
“It’s still easier to chat with pretty girls who are smart. Even when coaxing people, their words sound so nice.”
Lin Ye crossed his legs and tilted his head. “Do you have a boyfriend back in China?”
“No, my family is more strict. I’ve never dated anyone since I was young.”
Xue Xianyao shook her head and asked curiously, “What about the lord?”
“I had one in college. We broke up after graduation, but three years ago, I heard that she flew to Beautiful Country to pursue a love that was free and equal.”
Lin Ye narrowed his eyes and said calmly, “Unfortunately, an accident happened to the plane she was on. Bang, it exploded on the spot.”
“Ah, well…”
Xue Xianyao smiled awkwardly. Why did she feel so strange hearing this story from her lord?
“Don’t need to feel awkward. I’m alright. It’s been so long, I’ve long forgotten about it.”
Lin Ye smiled and glanced at her. “On the other hand, your skills in the Way of Tea are not bad. Are you interested in working at the lord’s mansion? Make tea for this lord every day and it will count as 10 contribution points. Of course, you can also teach the Way of Tea to the chefs. For every chef you teach, you will be awarded 100 contribution points. How about that?”
“R-really?” Xue Xianyao’s beautiful eyes lit up.
She didn’t have to kill zombies and could still do what she was good at, what could be better than this?
Her friends were either dead or being bullied.
To be able to meet a good person like Lin Ye, she was truly a blessed person.
“It’s settled then. From today onwards, you will be the exclusive tea artisan of this lord. When the conditions get better in the future, I’ll get you a few qipao or something. That way, it’ll feel better when you make tea.”
Lin Ye said that, but his gaze was attracted by Dong Wei not far away.
That guy was very loud. Those who didn’t know would think that he was arguing with the people from the World Channel.
“My lord, Dong Wei is going to use his ultimate move!”
As one of the members of Crouching Dragon and Phoenixes of the Men, w.a.n.g Qiang was very familiar with his best friend. He chuckled.
“Oh? Let’s take a look then.” Lin Ye’s interest was piqued.
As expected, when there were only ten seconds left in the video, Dong Wei exploded.
On the world channel.
Dong Wei: “All of you shut your mouths!!! I’ll countdown. Come on board immediately. When the video reaches 100 million likes, 30,000 Zombie Souls, 100 Cla.s.s 2 Blue Tier Equipment will be randomly distributed. The rewards will be split into 300 sets. The first 100 sets will contain both weapons and Zombie Souls on a first come first serve basis. For lucky friends who manage to get it, there’s no need to pin the message as well. All you need to do is give my lord a five-star review. Those who don’t post after receiving the benefits will be blacklisted. In the future, on the market page under my lord’s banner, all the equipment and weapons sold will be inaccessible to you. There are already dozens of treasure chests available. 10…9, 8, 7… 2, 1. It starts now!!”
“…” Lin Ye’s face darkened. This was the ultimate move?
And wasn’t this a rip-off of a prank from a certain station?
But who would have thought that so many of them would fall for this? It caused a huge commotion in the world channel.
When the people heard that there were 30,000 Zombie Souls and hundreds of Level 2 equipment.
At this moment, many people were tempted. They would not lose anything anyway so why not just try it?
In an instant, the third wave of likes came.
Ding Ding Ding Ding!!!
As long as they were online, they would press the ‘Like’ b.u.t.ton until it broke.
Those who had stepped on him earlier on were so regretful that their intestines were turning green.
Likes +1, Likes +1, Likes +1…
Dislikes -2, Dislikes -2…
100xReward.
Likes +100, Likes +100, Likes +100…
This time, the number of likes was overwhelming.
The data skyrocketed in the last few seconds. The changes every second were extremely exaggerated.
120 million, 280 million, 410 million, 630 million…
“Hurry, hurry up. 100 Zombie Souls per cart. Give them out, quickly!!!”
On the other side, Dong Wei’s face was flushed red with excitement. He shouted desperately and called for the new recruits to carry bags of Zombie Souls.
Weapons were convenient. He casually threw it on the market page at a fast speed.
In the blink of an eye, the 30,000 Zombie Souls and 100 Cla.s.s 2 Blue Tier equipment put up on the market page were emptied.
This time, perhaps Dong Wei’s threat had taken effect.
A series of five-star reviews flooded the world channel.
Jiang Wei: “Hahaha, this is actually true. Fortunately, I’ve been single for a long time so my hand speed is fast enough. I successfully obtained a Cla.s.s 2 Blue Tier Fish Stripe Bow and 100 Zombie Souls! Brothers, I’ll go and give Lord Lin Ye a good review. Please call for me when there’s an activity next time!”
Eden: “First, am I the first? I’m invincible now. I’m the first to obtain a Cla.s.s 2 Blue Tier Weapon and Zombie Soul. Brothers at Unicorn Mountain, is there anyone of you who wants to join me? Bah, brother, I was wrong. I’ll give you a five-star review first. Also, I’m really not trying to drag—”
Zao Zige: “My hand speed is too fast. I have no choice. Brother Lin Ye, do you know how to play league of legends? Since you’re carrying me here, when we get back, I’ll carry you to the challenger tier. Oh, right, there’s still a five-star review to do, right? It’s settled. Brothers, with my ident.i.ty, I won’t be a burden. My hand speed is really fast! Stop flaming me.”
Rang Ti: “To be honest, you’ll have to let the professionals do it. I’ve won it with my bare feet. What about you guys? Forget it, I won’t mock you anymore. I’ll go and give Lin Ye a good review. If there’s a chance, let’s have a good time together!”
