Chapter 515 Rental Machine Upgrade
Liu Yu immediately followed, [Boss Lu! What will we do without you!]

Xiao Peng retorted, "We'll definitely miss your shop terribly... Boss Lu, don't go! Can the computer rental machine be copied?"

Lu Li scratched her head speechlessly; these people never knew how to be serious.

Seeing Xiao Peng's message, Lu Li also thought of the quantum computer rental machine. Could she buy a few more and put them in the central base, or could she upgrade it into a shop?
She chose to ignore these people's messages, since there was no point in replying anyway; they were just joking around.

She arrived at the computer rental machine but didn't see He Dongwei, the owner. Instead, she saw dozens of people queuing up, but there was only one machine available.

This is simply... impossible to manage.

She stood aside and watched silently for a while, then decided it wouldn't work.

She went to the staff dormitory, found He Dongwei's room, and knocked on his door. After a while, he opened the door, still sleepy.

When she saw Lu Li outside the door, she rubbed her eyes in disbelief, then unconsciously opened them wide, rubbed them again, and finally came to her senses.

"Boss Lu, what brings you here?" He Dongwei asked nervously.

Seeing her serious expression, He Dongwei's heart pounded. There's no such thing as a free lunch, and the only time the two of them had crossed paths was when he scraped out the quantum computer rental machine.

After that, Luli was left to her own devices, and of course, she treated all the store managers this way.

Lu Li smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just came to talk to you about the quantum computer rental machine. Can it be upgraded now? Or can we buy a few more to put in the central base?"

Her tone was calm, but her expression was slightly serious. When He Dongwei saw that she was asking about the computer rental machine, he immediately felt relieved.

He opened his personal computer to check the upgrade progress, and sure enough, it was almost time to upgrade.

He excitedly showed it to Luli, "It's ready to level up!"

Lu Li also said excitedly, "The upgrade should bring more changes. You can see if you can buy a few more units, or sell them in other ways."

He Dongwei was puzzled, but did as he was told. What was this other model? Hadn't it always been just renting?

The upgrade progress bar was just a little bit away from being completed, and the two watched it slowly inching forward until finally, it reached the bottom!

As if witnessing the birth of some treasure, the two couldn't help but cheer with joy. Lu Li exclaimed excitedly, "Quick, quick, let's see what new features it has!"

He Dongwei did as instructed, and indeed, the upgrade included many new features.

The most eye-catching feature is the machine upgrade. It no longer only has a rental function, but also a sales function, allowing users to sell virtual computers!

"Increase, increase, we must increase!" Lu Li repeated.

He Dongwei was infected by her excited expression, and his hands trembled a little. He clicked the "Add Function" button, but he could not see the difference on the computer.

It can only be seen on a machine.

While renting is good, Lu Li still thinks selling is the best option.

This one-off deal eliminates the hassle of renting and borrowing from other places.

Lu Li urged again, "Could we see if we can buy a few more machines?"

"Okay, okay." He Dongwei agreed, his fingers immediately swiping away, afraid that if he was even a second too slow, he would be killed a thousand times over by Lu Li's glare.

Soon, the "Add Machine" page was found.

This feature was only available after the upgrade. He Dongwei breathed a sigh of relief. He knew it; he had searched everywhere before but couldn't find this page.

How could I possibly find it so easily with Luli right next to me? It would make me look so inattentive and careless...

Lu Li checked and found that 10,000 points per machine was within an acceptable range.

With a wave of her hand, she declared, "Buy five!" He Dongwei's heart skipped a beat. Boss Lu's attitude was as extravagant as ever. Fifty thousand points—it would take him a long time to earn them.

Seeing his hesitant expression, Lu Li knew he was reluctant to part with it.

She had to patiently persuade you, "Look at you, you've had a personal computer rental machine for so long and you're only now upgrading, it's because you're unwilling to spend the money."

"With one more machine, you can earn at least two or three times more per day! And now that you have the sales function, you'll definitely earn even more. You have to give up something to gain something; you can't just stick to one machine forever."

She rambled on and on, until her mouth felt dry, and He Dongwei finally began to waver a little. He was just a pure miser…

Just like Boss Lu said, he wants to spend his whole life guarding a machine.

After all, he earns quite a bit now, enough for him to eat and drink every day, living a carefree and comfortable life. He doesn't need to worry about the machines; he can just leave them there.

He's lazy and stingy, but he's a decent person.

Lu Li said with a straight face, "Are you going to buy it or not? Otherwise, I have plenty of ways and strength."

With so many residents at the central base, one machine simply isn't enough.

He Dongwei compromised and ordered five machines. The customers who were queuing to rent the computers only saw flashes of white light.

When they looked closer, they saw five more computer rental machines next to them. The customers were both surprised and delighted, and some of the more quick-thinking customers had already moved over.

Soon, customers discovered the machine's new features.

"Wow, finally I can buy a quantum computer! Are you guys buying one?"

"Buy it! I've been worried about what would happen if Boss Lu left and I still couldn't get the quantum computer. Would it deduct a lot of my points?"

"I've thought that too!!"

"I took a look, and buying a quantum computer isn't expensive, cheaper than renting one for two years. No way, I'm going to buy it!"

"I want to take this deal too! We absolutely have to! Boss Lu is leaving tomorrow!"

"Oh dear, why did you have to bring up such a sad thing? How awful!"

"Alright, alright, just buy it already, stop arguing."

While they were having a lively discussion about the new features, Lu Li was also having a lively discussion with He Dongwei in the staff dormitory.

The main thing is that Lu Li brainwashed He Dongwei, telling him to work hard and not slack off, and that only by working hard can he earn more money, and that what he earns is all his own.

The two stood at the entrance of He Dongwei's dormitory and chatted for a while, with Lu Li doing most of the talking and He Dongwei listening.

He nodded repeatedly, finding Lu Li's words to be very reasonable.

Lu Li kept spouting off, and felt that what she said made perfect sense.

After the chat ended, He Dongwei looked dazed and watched Lu Li disappear around the corner.

Lu Li planned to go back to the lottery shop. When she passed by the computer vending machine, she glanced at it and saw that it was packed with people, with long queues in front of all six machines.

Although there were long queues before, these six queues were significantly more impressive.

She paused for a moment, thinking how wonderful it was; only a prosperous and thriving scene like this could be truly pleasing to the eye.

Having accomplished another task, Lu Li happily returned to the lottery shop.

She quickly reported the progress to Elder Shen and the others: "[We can buy quantum computers now! And we've left five quantum computer vending machines! Hopefully everyone can use them!]"

He Luo always replies the fastest: "Great! I'll arrange one for every employee in the department right away. It shouldn't be too expensive, right?"
