Quick Transmigration: The Love Rescue Plan

Chapter 107 A Heavenly Emperor Descends (2)

"The most important thing is that they're scarce; even if you have the money, you can't buy them," Yanzi said with some regret. "But gaming helmets are much cheaper, although they were released a month later than gaming pods. However, the price is very affordable; you can get a gaming helmet for 100 yuan. And gaming pods will also drop in price to tens of thousands of yuan in the later stages."

"Such a big price difference?" Dong Qianyue had never played such a virtual online game before, so she didn't understand why the same thing could have such a huge price difference.

Yanzi smiled and explained, "Shopkeeper, you don't play online games, so of course you wouldn't know."

“For true professional gamers, time is money.” Yanzi explained to Dong Qianyue, “There is a huge difference between entering the game a month earlier and a month later. So usually, those who wait outside the game company on the release date to buy the earliest game pods are almost all professional gamers.”

"Since so many professional gamers are camping out outside the game company, if I rush over now, will I be able to buy a game pod?" Dong Qianyue asked, rubbing her stomach weakly.

Although I really don't want to go to a game company and compete with a group of professional gamers for a game pod when I have period cramps.

However, since the original owner is not a game enthusiast, yet said this morning that he was going to buy such an expensive game pod, there must be a reason why he absolutely had to buy it.

Dong Qianyue, who has not yet accepted the plot, is unaware of the reason.

However, this is something the original owner wanted to do, and Dong Qianyue just needs to carry it out.

"Now?" Yanzi turned her head to look at the clock on the wall, then gave an awkward smile.

They had been talking for almost an hour without realizing it, and if they rushed to the game company now, they probably wouldn't be able to grab anything.

Who is Dong Qianyue? Judging from Yanzi's reaction, it's probably hopeless.

Dong Qianyue, still unwilling to give up, asked again, "Yanzi, besides robbing the game company, is there any other way to get a game pod?"

"Those with money and power can pre-order online, while ordinary people like us can only rush to the game company to buy it on the release date."

Yanzi paused for a moment, then seemed to have thought of something and said, "It's not like there's no other way. Game companies can't develop games on their own; they also have investors."

“Several shopping malls are their investors. It seems that game companies have provided a few, and they use game helmets for prize draws.” Yanzi thought for a moment and said, “But the performance of game helmets is naturally not as good as game pods.”

"For example, if the game pod has a 20% chance of getting a hidden class, the game helmet only has a 2% chance. And..." Yanzi paused and spread her hands, "Even if you go on a shopping spree in the mall and then try your luck in the lottery, you might not win."

Yanzi sighed and said, "Luck is always unpredictable. In terms of cost-effectiveness, I don't think it's worth spending thousands or tens of thousands to gamble on a game helmet that costs a hundred yuan. However, if you really want to experience the 100% realistic virtual game 'Phoenix Moon Fantasy' right away, then it's worth it."

Yanzi joked, "After all, the measure of value varies from person to person. Besides, if you're lucky, you might be able to win a game helmet for just 10 yuan. Everyone should have dreams."

“Let’s make a hundred million from him first,” Dong Qianyue couldn’t help but chime in.

"Huh?" Yanzi looked at Dong Qianyue with a puzzled expression.

Dong Qianyue laughed and said, "It's nothing, I just thought of someone's words: 'Set a small goal first, like earning 100 million.'"

Since it's too late to snag a game pod in time, the only option left is to try your luck at the mall.

Dong Qianyue felt that she was quite lucky. At least, who else could be bound to the system after death and have the chance to be resurrected?

While there are many novels like this in reality, they are, after all, just novels. Who has actually experienced such a life?

Although this system is somewhat of a rip-off, at least it's a system that can revive you.

Even if what falls from the sky isn't a huge pie, it can at least fill your stomach.

Dong Qianyue felt that even if she couldn't get the helmet by spending ten or one hundred yuan, it would still be a win if she could get it by spending ten thousand or one hundred thousand yuan.

After all, early gaming helmets were in high demand but not readily available.

Although she mentally prepared herself in this way, in real life, the thrifty Dong Qianyue simply couldn't bring herself to spend a lot of money on pointless things without any purpose.

After thinking it over, Dong Qianyue stood up, walked to her desk, took out painkillers from the cabinet, and took them.

Then he asked Yanzi to take him to the shop's warehouse, and together they checked the food inventory.

I made another list of things I needed to buy.

With a list in hand, spending money becomes a breeze.

The mall's lucky draw is quite attractive.

The game helmet, originally priced at around 100 yuan, is on sale; for every 10 yuan spent, you get a chance to win a prize.

In other words, if you're lucky, you can win a game helmet worth 100 yuan for just 10 yuan.

However, the odds of winning are extremely low. As Yanzi said, you might spend tens of thousands of yuan and still not be able to win the game helmet.

However, even though the probability is very low, people are still very enthusiastic.

After all, gaming helmets priced at 100 yuan are practically unavailable.

You want to buy a gaming helmet for 100 yuan? Then please go to the game company to buy it a month later.

Now, since they can't get a game pod, they can only rely on their luck.

Dong Qianyue glanced down at the list in her hand: eggs, milk, chocolate, heavy cream, fruit...

Fortunately, the cake shop is doing quite well every day, so there are still a lot of things to buy, and spending tens of thousands of yuan is not a problem.

I hope I'll be lucky enough to win the game helmet before I run out of chances to draw it.

Otherwise... what happened next was something that Dong Qianyue, a thrifty and moderate spender, couldn't even imagine.

During her life, Dong Qianyue lived to be over twenty years old and never spent money recklessly for anything.

Even with her favorite celebrities, she has always been a very rational fan.

It's rare for someone to spend a lot of money to book VIP tickets for a concert for a particular celebrity, or to travel abroad just to see one.

Dong Qianyue is a rational and realistic fan. She will defend the celebrities she likes, but she won't go crazy for them. She certainly doesn't consider any celebrity her husband.

Dong Qianyue has always maintained a clear line between reality and idol.

She wouldn't criticize the woman involved in a scandal just because her favorite celebrity is rumored to be dating someone.

They wouldn't cry and wail like they'd die just because their favorite celebrity is getting married.

Perhaps that celebrity's fans will think Dong Qianyue is a fake fan, but it is an indisputable fact that Dong Qianyue really likes that celebrity.
