Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

Amidst screams and gasps, the people who had been rolling around on the lawn outside were now scrambling towards the barrier.

Even from dozens of meters away, he was already yelling, "Give me authorization! Let me in!"

Not only him, but everyone who remained outside rushed towards the barrier.

Some people's legs were so weak that they fell after running a few steps, and in the end they could barely crawl forward.

Those who are greedy for survival pass and those who take their assigned seats stand guard at the door.

Looking at the thirty-odd people running this way, especially the one at the very front, who was the same person who had been rolling around on the grass earlier.

The two men had different expressions.

The customers inside the barrier, witnessing this scene, also whispered among themselves:

"Luckily, I listened to advice and came right in."

"It was terrifying! What were those things on that mountain? It was the first time I'd ever seen so many eyeballs, and some of them were red. It gave me trypophobia."

"Do you think the boss will let us in?"

"I don't think so. You can't reason with a damned person. These people are asking for it. What does it have to do with the boss?"

"That's not a good idea. They're customers here, after all. We can't just send them to their deaths because they won't listen to advice. If that happens, who will dare to buy anything here in the future?"

"But Samsung's five-star service doesn't seem to be here. There are only staff here, so I think it's hard to say. It depends on the staff's mood."

All attention was focused on the two people at the entrance who had already rushed to the barrier.

Li Zhiyin wasn't on the second floor, and he wanted to see how they would handle the situation.

[Player "Greedy Pass" sent you an urgent message]

[Player "You've Taken It Again" sent you an urgent message]

Li Zhi laughed.

That's how they solved it.

But that's not wrong either.

GreedyPass: [Three or five, those stubborn fools who wouldn't listen to advice before are regretting it and want to come in now. Should we open the door?]

You immediately jumped to conclusions: [Boss, what's the situation up on the mountain? Should I go with Hao Shihena and the others to clear it out? And maybe hunt some game for an extra meal.]

While checking the messages, those who had stayed outside had already run to the door.

At this moment, whether they pleaded, cursed, or reasoned with the guards at the door, they were allowed to pass or sit in their assigned seats.

The roars of beasts echoed through the mountains, accompanied by the sounds of crunching leaves and rustling through the air.

Li Zhi replied to Tan Sheng Pass: [Do you think we should open the door?]

Li Zhi noticed that the expression on the face of someone who wanted to pass by showing reluctance had clearly become hesitant.

Her gaze lingered outside the door and behind her, as if searching for the vanished Li Zhi.

The man who had tried to save his life looked nervous: "[Shouldn't this be wrong?]"

Give me back my Samsung Galaxy S5! : [What's the reason?]

The survivor, with eyes downcast, said, "[We've already given those people outside a chance, but they wouldn't listen to reason, and besides... there's not enough space inside.]"

Give me back my Samsung Galaxy S5! : [Is there really not enough room for all these people?]

Greed for life (pass): [As the people inside said, you can't reason with a damned ghost...]

Give me back my 3-star, 5-cost account!!! : [You didn't persuade them; you just let them enter the barrier without giving a reason, did you?]

GreedyPass paused, then said: [That's true, but... these people didn't listen to us. We meant well and wouldn't have lied to them. They just didn't listen, so even if they got bad results, we can't be blamed for it...]

Seeing that Tan Sheng had passed, Li Zhi slowly pursed his lips, his expression gradually changing from resolute to bewildered and conflicted.

Give me back my Samsung and 5-star rating!!! : [Do you remember what place "Unforgettable Danger" is? What does the general store do?]

Greed for life (pass): [Your territory? For doing business?]

Wild animals are coming down the mountain; they can already be seen at the edge of the valley.

The people outside had gone from pleading to cursing, and some even wanted to rush to the place where the flying boats were moored.

But the area is already near the mountains, and there are already signs of wild animals.

"Let us in!"

"I don't want to die! I'm only in my early twenties, I don't want to die!"

"Open the door! Open the door for me! If you don't open the door, I'll expose you on the Dongqi chat forum! I'll make sure your shady business can never do business again!"

Li Zhi glanced at the customers outside, whose expressions were contorted and whose spirits were suppressed to the extreme. He typed in his mind: [The most important thing in doing business is to make money through harmony. Customers are God. Even if God doesn't listen, you can't let God fend for himself. 10 gold coins per spot. If you can't pay, write an IOU.]

Li Zhi was stunned when he saw the "Save Life" pass, as if he was digesting new knowledge, and then his eyes gradually brightened.

Greedy for survival pass: [Yeah! How come I didn't think of that! I know!]

She turned to the person knocking on the door and raised her voice, "You can come in! 10 gold coins per person! If you don't have the money, write an IOU!"

"Me! I have money! Let me in first!"

One person immediately took out 10 gold coins.

The moment the money was paid, the person stepped into the barrier.

"I don't have money! But I can write an IOU!"

Greedy Pass handed the IOU that Li Zhi had sent to the man, who quickly signed it and then scrambled in as well.

When the people outside saw that the two had actually entered, they couldn't help but stir.

"I have money too! Let me in first!"

"Why?! Those people didn't pay anything before! 10 gold! Why don't you just rob us?!"

"I have no money! I don't even have a single gold coin on me! Please, for the sake of us all being human, please let me in..."

The man who was trying to save his life said firmly, "You have to pay. No money, no entry."

She moved quickly, talking and collecting money at the same time, occasionally returning the first IOU.

Before long, only three people remained at the door.

Among these three were the one who rolled on the grass at the beginning, the one who started cursing, and the one who played the victim.

"I have broadcast the entire event that happened tonight live, and it was broadcast live from Dongqi. If you don't want to be boycotted by the whole nation, you'd better let me in."

"You're not the boss! What right do you, a mere clerk, have to make decisions?! Let me in! I know Samsung Wufei! I'm related to her! Believe me or not, I can fire you with a single word!"

"Please, sister, I really have no money. I've saved up for so long and only have 56 silver coins left. If I give it all to you, I won't be able to live anymore. Please, let me in..."

Wild beasts descending the mountain are approaching.

Looking around, there were at least thirty of them, coming from all directions. Most of them had scarlet eyes and were quite large.

The closest one has already reached the edge of the wooden house.

The three became even more excited, their voices mingling together, almost distorted and broken.

Tan Sheng licked his lips, wanting to ask Li Zhi what to do again several times.

But she also knew that if she didn't handle things properly, Li Zhi would definitely come out.

She recalled a casual conversation Li Zhi had shared earlier, in which she recounted an amusing encounter with a merchant from the Southern District at the Beast Market.

She took a deep breath and said in an unquestionable tone, "It's still 10 gold coins now, but it won't be for long. I'll count down and increase the price by 1 gold coin every second, up to a maximum of 20 gold coins. This is Buwangwei's private territory, and the general store is no longer open. This money is the protection fee you owe."

"Now, 10, 9, 8..."
