System: Master Your Life

Chapter 844 - 208: So It Really Is Young Master Xu (Part 3)

While the netizens were discussing, Xu Lin continued his work.

This time, Xu Lin planned to open a larger map, involving commercial areas and some parts of the city. In addition, Xu Lin also opened other floors in the protagonist’s neighborhood, like inside residents’ homes. If you get their permission, you can enter, of course, you can also control the character to use some special means to enter.

Additionally, Xu Lin updated an antique market and a second-hand market.

These two markets are for the protagonist to search for treasures, places to earn money; otherwise, how can the protagonist turn the tables by just working for others and selling their lives?

In reality, capable people start by working for others to accumulate capital. Money is a small aspect; more importantly, networking, for instance, if you got fired by your boss, and you can take your clients with you, that’s your network resources, proving your abilities are indeed impressive.

But that’s reality, and in the game, Xu Lin can create shortcuts. The updated antique market and second-hand market are such shortcuts, where people can find treasures to earn money, to accumulate the protagonist’s rise in capital.

As for how to find treasures, players need to use their initiative. Some surely excel, like someone who knows how to appraise jade and antiques can develop early. Meanwhile, some experts will share experiences for beginners to refer to.

Xu Lin opted not to worry about this for now.

He spent another three hours tonight learning about jade and antique knowledge, which is how the antique market came about, so he didn’t do it recklessly.

But in future updates, Xu Lin would consider listing new cheat items in the mall, like Golden Eyes and Treasure Hunting Tools.

In a game, you can do anything, without needing to refer to what’s reasonable or not in reality.

Since Xu Lin announced that the map and new gameplay would be updated at six in the morning, he now has over two million players, with more than two hundred thousand staying up all night waiting until six o’clock, while several tens of thousands set their alarms for around five fifty.

At precisely six o’clock, because Xu Lin had scheduled the update, it was very punctual.

"It’s here, it’s here, finally updated!"

"What’s the new gameplay?"

"The new gameplay is the antique market and the second-hand market, where players can earn money through these two markets."

"Kind of like treasure hunting? Sounds interesting!"

"Take a look, and you’ll find out."

Despite the larger map being opened, in front of the new gameplay, many players were obviously too busy to bother with the new map and flocked to the two markets.

Luckily, this isn’t a martial arts MMORPG like Justice Online, or else with tens of thousands rushing in, these two markets would be packed and chaotic.

"The antique market is so interesting, filled with experiences everywhere. Of course, I can’t tell the genuine articles. Has anyone checked the second-hand market?"

"The second-hand market is rather mixed; I even saw unused sanitary pads lying there. Ridiculous! You could think of it as a real-life Idle Fish community."

"Has anyone found any treasures yet?"

"How long has this new gameplay been online? Treasures, seriously."

"I feel like I can really spend a day at the antique market. Damn, I need to go to work later."

"Same, need to go to work."

"It’d be great if we could play it in VR, this kind of game matches perfectly with VR, this computer setup just isn’t quite enough."

With the update of the new gameplay, the game’s comment sections on Steam, Xiaohé Box, and Tieba are filled with player comments. Due to its popularity, it quickly refreshed with tens of thousands of comments.

However, by eight in the morning, a new game notification shot to the top of the trending list.

Notification: I have opened a dedicated game section, suggestions can be proposed there, I will consider them at my discretion. Additionally, this section can be used to discuss game content.

A web link was also included.

Everyone clicked the link, and after the page redirected.

Huh?

Where am I brought to?

Isn’t this Young Master Xu’s personal website?

"Wow! Awesome, it really is you, Young Master Xu! I knew it!"

"Who else but Young Master Xu possesses such skills?"

"Are you sure it’s Young Master Xu? Didn’t he make no statement?"

"How could it not be? The discussion board on Young Master Xu’s personal website can only be opened by him, netizens at most can post, they don’t have the permission to open a board, so it must be Young Master Xu."

"Finally, a dedicated place for discussion, everyone gather here!"

"Given that we can offer suggestions, I’d like to ask Young Master Xu when the VR version will be available?"

"The big productions in reality can’t even reach AAA level, let alone this groundbreaking game, I feel it’s even more unthinkable. Plus, current VR is very unfriendly to users, still remains a gimmick."

An hour later, the top trending topic: Turns out it really was Young Master Xu!

By just looking at the title of this trending topic, you wouldn’t know what it’s about.

But once people clicked in, they found out Young Master Xu recently made some big moves.

Besides the top trending topic, several other related trending topics followed.

For a while, the trending list was buzzing.
