A leisurely life: I have a scenic area

A colorful lake has been built on Cat Mountain.

It was completed in just about ten days.

The water is drawn from the river; it's natural river water.

A viewing platform was also built, and it was officially opened to the public after its completion.

On the first day of opening, Li Shuang and Zhou Shuran happened to be planning to go to Cat Mountain to feed the cats.

Li Shuang is incredibly lucky. Last time Qi Yue held a sword-flying event, she won first place and was given a chance to fly around the river on a sword by Qi Yue.

It even became a minor sensation at their school at the time.

The two arrived at Cat Mountain.

Qingfeng Mountain Scenic Area is very popular with visitors for its various attractions. Many people only visit for one day because they can't possibly experience everything, so they skip the Maomao Mountain option.

There aren't as many people on Cat Mountain anymore.

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, a cow cat was sitting on a high platform. Every tourist who passed by gave it a high five and received a blessing from the cat.

Li Shuang and his companion walked over, extended their hands, and smiled at the cow-and-cow cat, saying, "Hello."

The black and white cat remained calm, with an air of indifference. It extended its paw and gently patted Li Shuang's palm, then patted Zhou Shuran's palm.

Li Shuang and his companion cheered and jumped for joy, then continued up the steps toward the top of the mountain.

Cat Mountain is not high.

After walking for a while, you can see the small temple of the Three Flower Goddess.

The Three Flower Goddess sat there dignifiedly.

"It really is there! I heard that the Three Flower Goddess appears on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday mornings, and she really is!"

Li Shuang was slightly excited.

"so cute!"

A hint of happiness flickered in Zhou Shuran's eyes.

Just then, the two noticed that there were three tiny kittens gathered together and playing on the table next to them.

One of them is a small calico, and the other two are black tabby.

It was probably born from a tabby cat.

"Look there, she's got a baby, and she's taking the baby to work!"

"Not easy!"

"I wonder whose child it is!"

The two were pleasantly surprised to see the kitten. When they looked up, they discovered a pretty tabby cat with delicate features peering in their direction from the railing on the mountain path.

This tabby cat is none other than Boss Tanuki, the one Qi Yue keeps.

Calico cats are considered the most beautiful cats in the feline world, and countless male cats have their eyes on them. Tabby cats, on the other hand, are considered the epitome of feline beauty.

It is a story about a fallen princess and a knight.

"It must be that tabby cat!"

"That cat is so cute!"

"That looks like the tabby cat that Boss Qi keeps. I've seen the video analysis, and in this cat mountain, that tabby cat is the boss, and the other cats all listen to it."

"That's amazing?"

Li Shuang and Zhou Shuran chatted casually, and Li Shuang clasped her hands together in prayer towards the calico cat.

The Three Flower Goddess also stood up and moved her front paws in response.

Then, the two continued walking up the mountain.

When you reach the halfway point of the mountain, suddenly, a brand-new wooden boardwalk appears on the side, leading straight into the depths.

There's a sign that says "Five-Colored Lake" with an arrow attached.

"Five-Colored Lake? Does Cat Mountain have such a building?"

"I don't remember that!"

"Let me check the mini-program. It really is there! Cat Mountain has added a Five-Colored Lake, which just opened today!"

"There's still no news. Let's go check it out!"

"What a wonderful thing to happen today!"

The two immediately decided to walk along the wooden boardwalk.

The road was lined with trees on both sides, and the woods were slightly cool and the air was exceptionally fresh.

Walking through it, you can temporarily forget the pressure of work and feel relaxed and happy.

Soon, the two arrived at the viewing platform of Five-Colored Lake.

There are already eight or nine tourists here.

They looked down from the observation deck and were immediately surprised.

All that could be seen below was a lake with a transparent sky-blue color, the water shimmering like jelly.

Because it is located in a sheltered area, there is little wind, and the lake surface is still.

The lake water contains a mixture of unidentified colors such as red, dark red, and yellow, along with the reflections of trees and white clouds.

Everything looked so beautiful.

"My God, is this a real lake?"

"It's so beautiful. Unlike ecological lakes like Mingyue Lake, this is more like a scenic lake."

Li Shuang and Zhou Shuran exclaimed in surprise.

Several tourists nearby were also discussing it.

"I remember Qi Ge went to Jiuzhaigou last time, how come he's already made plans to visit Wucai Lake as soon as he got back!"

"This lake really has the style of Jiuzhaigou."

"That's one of the best water features in the country!"

"This lake is indeed beautiful."

"They've added another attraction without any promotion. The scenic area must be really rich and powerful!"

The newly built Five-Colored Lake adds a unique touch to the natural landscape of Maomao Mountain.

Qi Yue didn't pay much attention to the Five-Colored Lake.

It's built, so be it. Let the tourists visit. It's been ten days since he returned from Jiuzhaigou, and he's accumulated another 12 goodwill chests.

He now prefers to accumulate 12 before opening a new one.

On the one hand, you can recruit employees, and on the other hand, you can open two treasure chests to test the waters.

This is always the happiest time for Qi Yue.

Because he doesn't know what he will get, he has expectations and surprises.

Everyone loves the feeling of surprise.

[Host has chosen to recruit employees; recruitment in progress]

A notification appeared on the system panel.

[Recruitment successful, employee acquired: Giant]

Employee Name: Taishan

【Loyalty: 80】

[Skill: Bodybuilding: Possessing a fit and athletic physique]

Salary: 8000 RMB/month (Lower than this standard will lead to decreased employee loyalty)

[Description: A 2-meter-tall, giant muscular man who enjoys bodybuilding and will use bodybuilding techniques scientifically while ensuring his health.]

[Note: Bodybuilding is expensive, hence the higher salary.]

Qi Yue was somewhat surprised to see the system's notification.

A giant?

Two meters tall and fit?
That must be so thick!
At this moment, the system issued another notification.

[Note: Based on the current area and popularity of the scenic area, the recruitment limit for special staff is 15 people. Once a recruited staff member leaves, no additional recruitment opportunities will be available.]

Current time: 11/15

Upon seeing the prompt, Qi Yue thought it made sense.

There must be a limit to the number of special employees; otherwise, if we keep recruiting, and we end up recruiting hundreds of people, the system will have a hard time handling it.

The current system's capacity is to recruit 15 people.

That's good.

Tarzan is a giant; his physique is perfect for character actors.

For example, wearing armor and standing there.

He can be both the righteous sect's senior disciple and the villain's leading disciple.

Let's give him a role and let him join the performance troupe.

It can be used.

Next, Qi Yue chose to open the box.

Please select a reward:

【1. Cold Weapon: Longsword Yuanhong, an unsharpened longsword with exquisite design】

[2. Cold Weapon: Fangtian Halberd, a domineering long halberd, with a heavy and extremely solid feel.]

3. Cold Weapon: White Jade Dagger. A dagger made of white jade, it has no offensive capabilities, but it is very expensive to make.

Three weapon-shaped rewards appeared before Qi Yue.

All three rewards are good.

Qi Yue was hesitating when he saw a notification from the system.

[Congratulations, host, for triggering the "All-Out Attack" effect and receiving all rewards.]

This is a good thing.

Qi Yue immediately burst into laughter.

"I'm having a lucky day. According to the rule, when someone is lucky, their luck will only get better."

"So, if we open another box, there's a chance we'll get even better stuff."

As gamers know, luck is never evenly distributed, or rather, it's uneven across different time periods.

For example, in DNF, today you might only get trash pink and purple gear, but tomorrow you might get a top-tier epic item and a Primal set.

After Qi Yue triggered the "win all" effect, he felt it was simply a sign of good luck.

Therefore, the chances of getting good stuff from the next treasure chest are very high.

"My luck is on my side, let's open the box!"

Qi Yue chose to open the last favor chest.

As the treasure chest began to flash, a golden light burst forth the next second.

As expected, a legendary gold item has been released!

Please select your reward:

[1. Skill: Photography Master, the host is skilled in photography.]

[2. Skill: Skipping stones; the host is skilled at skipping stones on lakes.]

[3. Skill: Sword Dance; the host is skilled in sword dancing.]

The three skills were reproduced.

When he saw the second skill, Qi Yue's lips twitched.

What?
A waste of time?
Is this also a skill?
However, he now has many recruited employees, and with more skills available, he can share them with them.

Qi Yue naturally intended to choose the first one, since it was the only one he would need.

Moreover, Zhao Rou really likes photography, so I shared it with her.

After all, this girl has a really good personality, and Qi Yue likes her quite a bit, so he definitely has to treat her well.

Just then, another notification appeared from the system.

[Congratulations, host, for triggering the "All-Out Attack" effect and receiving all rewards.]

Upon seeing this notification, Qi Yue smiled.

"Sure enough, when luck comes, there's no stopping it." (End of Chapter)
