The end of the world: I am linked to a mobile lottery store

Chapter 585 Lion Head Base

Because of this nonsensical and somewhat absurd question, the atmosphere became inexplicably more relaxed.

Su Yun pressed on, saying, "I won a prize today: a generator that can power a small base for daily use."

Lin Yu's eyes lit up, and he unconsciously gripped his thighs tightly with his pants.

Hydropower has always been a major challenge for various bases.

Water is relatively easy to solve; with water-based ability users, they can produce some every day.

With the emergence of Luli, the price of bottled water in convenience stores is not expensive, and everyone's drinking water problem has been solved.

Electricity can only be obtained from electric-type ability users, but there are very few of these ability users.

You couldn't find ten of them in the whole country.

If the generator that Su Yun described really exists, that would be fantastic!

"Really?" Lin Yu confirmed.

"Of course," Su Yun said earnestly. "This is a prize I won from a lottery shop. If the base commander doesn't believe me, why doesn't he believe Boss Lu?"

Of course, Mr. Lu believes it; there are no negative reviews online.

No one who has ever spent money at a lottery shop has a bad reputation; they only blame their bad luck.

But he didn't trust Su Yun; he didn't have a deep impression of this woman.

He turned his gaze to Lu Li, his eyes carrying a slight questioning intent.

Lu Li nodded, affirming Su Yun's words: anything produced by a lottery shop must be of high quality.

Lin Yu was relieved, but then asked, "I believe you, so? What do you want to do?"

Su Yun stopped beating around the bush and said directly, "I want to rent it to the base."

Hearing this answer, Lin Yu was slightly disappointed; he would have preferred to buy it outright.

I only feel at ease when I actually hold it in my hand.

But he had also heard that the prizes offered by lottery shops could only be used by the lottery winner, and everyone else could only watch.

Renting is fine too, at least it will provide electricity to the base.

“No problem, how many crystal cores per month?” Lin Yu asked.

"Five hundred." Su Yun already knew the answer to this question when Lu Li mentioned that the reward was a generator.

Five hundred crystal cores, enough for a month's use—not too much, but not too little either.

But it's definitely within the base commander's tolerance level; if it's any higher, it's uncertain whether he'll try to negotiate.

Lin Yu pondered for a moment. It was a bit pricey, but what he got in return was power to the entire base.

If you do the math, it's a great deal.

But as the base commander, he had to consider the base's needs, and his long-standing habit of being meticulous in his calculations made him want to bargain.

Just as he was about to speak and lower his voice a little, he caught a glimpse of Lu Li out of the corner of his eye. She was looking at him with a half-smile.

He felt a chill run down his spine, swallowed the words he was about to say, and instead said, "Fine, five hundred it is."

Su Yun gave a small "oh yeah" in her heart, knowing that letting Boss Lu take charge was the right decision.

She clearly saw the base chief's furtive glance at Boss Lu.

The deal was thus "pleasantly" completed.

With Lu Li as a witness, Lin Yu paid the first month's rent on the spot, and the two also signed a contract.

The three of them came out of the meeting room with smiles on their faces. Lu Li even invited the base leader, "Want to stay for dinner?"

Upon hearing this, Su Yun knew it was a matter between important people, and she calmly took her leave.

She was not only secretly delighted, but it was also impossible to hide it on her face.

That's great! I can earn 500 crystal cores a month without doing anything, and I won't have to worry about food, clothing, or daily necessities.

For dinner, the table was set with lion's head meatballs, Lin Yu's favorite dish from his civilized era.

A large bowl, bursting with color, aroma, and flavor. The chef for this dish is Tang Dong, a professional chef, and Lu Li specifically placed the order.

Lin Yu couldn't help but feel a lump in his throat when he saw the dish; his eyes reddened, and his heart ached.

Unexpectedly, Lu Li remembered what he said casually and even secretly prepared something for him.

No wonder Luli has received rave reviews online, with almost no negative ones.

This demonstrates their understanding of human relationships and their subtle sensibilities. They act without ever seeking credit or trying to show off.

It was as if, in her eyes, this was just a very small matter.

But in the eyes of the person involved, it was truly touching and something they would remember for a lifetime.

Lin Yu sat down next to Lu Li, having already silently decided to unconditionally support her from now on.

After the meal, Lin Yu felt only relaxation and satisfaction.

No one at this table needs to bother with socializing; they can simply relax and enjoy the food.

After finishing his meal, Lin Yu stayed in the RV for a while longer, chatting with Lu Li before leaving.

On the way back, Lin Yu kept reminiscing about that lion's head meatball.

It's absolutely delicious! I don't know if it's just my imagination, but it tastes a million times better than in civilized times.

Could it be that we haven't had anything good to eat in a long time?

It feels like I've finally been released from prison after ten years and am going out to eat and drink to my heart's content; my stomach is about to burst.

I'll take a leisurely stroll back; it'll help digest my food.

The RV park was still bustling with activity; even though it was closing time, customers lingered, reluctant to leave.

Luli had no choice but to postpone it by an hour, much to the delight of the customers.

When people are happy, time flies by, and an hour passes quickly.

Luli closed on time, and the customers gradually dispersed. Xiao Di and Zhan Ting packed up the remaining tickets.

After tidying up, the two left work, and Luli turned off the lights and went upstairs to sleep.

……

Day 1 at Lion Head Base.

On the first day of official opening, there were many customers, but everything went smoothly.

During dinner, Shen Bing and the others gathered in the RV and chatted about the interesting things that happened that day.

Wang Yang said excitedly, "You know what, although this Lion Head Base is small, its spending power is not low."

Luo Mu picked up on a topic no one else wanted to discuss, asking, "What do you mean?"

Wang Yang didn't mind that Luo Mu was the one who answered, and continued, "Normally, those bases would only have a maximum of fifty full-day tickets a day, but the Lion Head Base has over a hundred!"

A full-day ticket costs 1,688 points and allows you to enjoy the bathhouse all day, from opening in the morning until closing at night.

It's not exactly cheap; in fact, it's a bit pricey.

Sixteen crystal cores could buy you several meals at other shops, but you can only have them for one day at the bathhouse.

Which is more important? Everyone knows the answer.

However, it cannot be ruled out that some people are simply rich, or simply enjoy the atmosphere of bathhouses and want to have a good time all day without a care in the world.

"Oh?" Luo Mu continued, "Isn't this good?"

"Of course it's good, it saves me a lot of trouble." Wang Yang picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks.

Shen Bing agreed, "I feel the same way. The residents of the Lion Head Base have a high level of spending power, or to put it another way, they are very willing to spend money."

Lu Li said, "I would say they are very willing to spend money on themselves and not mistreat themselves. I think that's a good thing."

Zong Xia said, "That's right. Today's revenue is more than the Rainstone Base's revenue for two days."

“My fruit shop is the same. We’ve restocked at least five times. At the Yushi base, restocking two or three times a day is enough to last until closing time,” Sheng Xian said.

After hearing everyone's stories, Lu Li thought it was great and hoped that more bases like Lion Head could be established.
