This city simulation game can affect reality.

Without further modesty, Li Qingxin simply nodded after hearing Chen Jun's statement, blushing as she said, "Thank you, Mr. Chen."

The account currently has only three videos, none of which have become viral hits.

The most viewed video only had a little over 300,000 views, but its interaction rate and completion rate were higher than the average.

Given the relatively vertical track and the short time since the start of the races, the current data is within expectations.

As short videos have evolved, Douyin's algorithm has become relatively sophisticated. For accounts with long-term challenges like this, the system generally won't give them traffic too early. Instead, they will gradually increase their traffic once the content quality is stable and their persona is nearly mature.

At best, Li Qingxin has made some progress in her craftsmanship, but she is still far from being a true master.

As for the number of viewers in the live stream, it has recently stabilized at 500-700, which is 10-20% more than a few days ago.

The daily earnings, on average, only amount to about 60 yuan, but occasionally there are generous donations from wealthy individuals.

For Li Qingxin, coming to Xita has marked a new stage in his life.

With a base salary of 3000 yuan, her monthly income is enough to improve her quality of life.

After the cameraman finished filming today's video, Li Qingxin returned to the live stream.

Although Chen Jun did not have a strict requirement for working hours, she took the initiative to arrive at the woodcutter's hut before 8:30 every day during this period.

They sit there all day long.

"Mom, look at this girl, she's so amazing!"

At that moment, a woman walked in from outside, holding the hand of a little boy who looked about seven or eight years old.

The boy seemed to be drawn to the movements of Li Qingxin's hands and wanted to pull the woman closer to see what was going on.

"Look how amazing my sister is! She can make so many exquisite little toys." The mother clearly noticed that Li Qingxin was live streaming. While praising her gently, she pulled her son's hand, signaling him not to come closer.

"I want to learn this too."

Fortunately, the little boy wasn't the kind of unreasonable troublemaker. After sensing his mother's physical restraint, he stopped in his tracks, staring intently at Li Qingxin with shining eyes.

"Here, take the tools and try it yourself." The woman casually took a carving knife from the wooden frame next to her, picked up the wood on the table, and handed it to her son.

The little boy then came to his senses, took the tools, sat down in the chair, and began to carve with great skill.

He seemed genuinely interested in woodworking, but a few minutes later, looking at the misshapen scrap in his hands, the little boy's face clearly showed frustration: "Mom, how can I carve it as well as my sister?"

"She makes a living this way. If you want to learn, I'll buy you a bunch of tools so you can practice at home."

The woman was clearly the kind of parent who was understanding and didn't spoil her child's fun.

However, the boy didn't seem to buy it. He was at an age where his thinking ability was just beginning to develop and he had a very rich imagination.

For some unknown reason, he stood up, walked to Li Qingxin's support frame, and knelt down, saying, "Master, please accept my bow."

All the adults present were amused by his funny and cute behavior.

The woman didn't rush to help her child up. Instead, she looked at Li Qingxin and said, "Young lady, you seem quite professional. Why don't you let my son learn the basics from you? We'll pay the tuition."

"No...no, I'm just doing this for fun, I'm not at a level where I can teach others yet."

Li Qingxin was clearly not good at handling this kind of situation and subconsciously refused.

Chen Jun, who had been watching quietly, suddenly had an idea when the boy uttered the words "become a disciple." He waved to Li Qingxin and said to the mother and daughter, "You can take me as a disciple."

"But Xiao Li is busy right now. If you really want to learn, you can come over at noon."

In order to take advantage of the traffic generated by the newcomer support program, Chen Jun suggested that Li Qingxin broadcast for more than ten hours a day.

Now that the situation is gradually stabilizing, there's no need to work so hard anymore.

Two sessions a day, one in the morning and one in the evening, totaling more than four hours of live streaming time, are sufficient.

It can maintain popularity without overworking one's creative state.

Upon hearing this, the little boy jumped up excitedly.

Although he may only have a fleeting interest, at least for this moment, the joy in his heart was real.

After the woman thanked her politely, she led the little boy away from the woodcutter's hut. Li Qingxin, however, looked at Chen Jun somewhat nervously: "Mr. Chen, I've only been doing this for a few days. How can I possibly teach others?"

"Don't be afraid. My intention in hiring you in the first place was to train you first, and then help more people master this skill."

Although this incident was not part of his plan, upon seeing the boy's actions, Chen Jun immediately realized that this might be an opportunity to make the woodcutter's hut famous.

It combines online dissemination with real-world offline experiences.

One pass ten, ten pass a hundred.

If the boy can persevere, he will surely become the next breakthrough point.

Time quickly came to noon.

Sure enough, just after one o'clock in the afternoon, the boy really did pull his mother back to the woodcutter's hut.

As soon as he entered, he couldn't wait to run to the worktable, pick up Li Qingxin's previous works, and examine them carefully.

The woman said apologetically, "This child didn't even have the appetite for lunch and kept urging me to bring him over quickly. I'm so sorry to have troubled you."

Seeing the boy's eager expression, Li Qingxin's initial unease eased somewhat. After thinking for a moment, she found a piece of softer linden wood in the wooden frame and handed it to the little boy: "Let me teach you how to carve a donut first."

What happened next was a natural progression.

The woman and Chen Jun agreed on the registration fee and arranged for her to come and study for two hours every day after school, with Saturdays and weekends depending on the specific schedule.

"Consider it as signing you up for an extracurricular class. You'd better study hard, or your dad will blame me for wasting money again."

"No problem, Mom."

......

Resident satisfaction: 25%

City attractiveness: 20

[Achieving a city attraction level of 30 unlocks a new building: Rotten Wood Apartments.]

[Note: The city has relatively few functional buildings, leading to slow growth in resident satisfaction.]

The rewards for the next stage have appeared on the management interface of City Simulator.

Although the woodcutter's hut has been placed, according to the game system, functional buildings are still one of the current shortcomings.

For a resort that wants to diversify its offerings, the current range of services is clearly too limited.

Of the four key elements of "eating," "drinking," "playing," and "entertainment," the first two, while featuring apartments and a food street, are hardly competitive compared to similar projects in Nandu City.

As for entertainment, before the Woodcutter's Hut was built, it could only rely on natural scenery and an unremarkable artificial lake, making it difficult to generate a sustained and effective flow of visitors.
