The sales office seemed to be managed by NPCs,

but in fact, all the processes inside could be resolved through the system interface.

After customers finished looking at the property information or buying land, they could directly take the contract and leave the sales office.

So the long queues shortened very quickly, and it wasn't long before it was Li Ang's turn.

He and four programmers walked into the spacious and bright store. The sales office customer service dialogue box immediately popped up in front of him, asking him what kind of help he needed.

The Jin Ge Tie Ma (Golden Spears Iron Horses) quartet looked a little uneasy. They didn't intend to buy a house (nor could they afford it). They were mainly sent by their superiors to come and see the situation.

The one responsible for buying the house was another Whale Song colleague—with a special fund, paid for with public funds.

"More than a hundred pieces of land have been sold in just a short while, and they're all in good locations near the shopping mall, and they're all several pieces connected together!"

The chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) youth, Ge Chanluoxing, said with a grimace: "Are there so many rich people?

Damn it, why don't I have money?

If I had money, would I be like this?!"

"This one costs 50,000, this one costs 100,000, this one costs 200,000... The cheapest one-bedroom apartment, thirty square meters, costs 8,000..."

Black Trojan looked at the virtual projection of the building in his sight, his eyes firmly hooked by the large price numbers, and he was completely distracted.

Li Ang calmly scanned all the houses for sale in the sales office, and then read through the system regulations regarding the sales office again.

He noticed a statement—as the scale of players grows in the future, the area of the game square will gradually expand.

In other words, the number of plots is not limited.

He thought about it carefully, casually closed the virtual projection in his sight, and turned to walk outside.

Black Trojan came back to his senses, turned around and asked, "Hey, Brother Li, aren't you going to buy a house?"

"No hurry."

Li Ang stood at the entrance of the sales office and casually said, "At present, the main way for players to obtain game currency is to perform tasks issued by the system.

Even if someone directly sells extraordinary materials to the mall, or uses materials to forge equipment and sell it to the mall,

because of the mall's black-heartedness, they can only earn a small amount of money at most.

So the total amount of game currency circulating on the market is limited and fluctuatingly balanced.

This game currency can be concentrated to cover all the square areas, but it is too scattered.

If all consumer groups combined cannot eat up the total amount of land, then the speculation behavior is meaningless. No one can truly achieve a land monopoly here.

It's okay to buy land out of necessity, but if you come here to speculate, just wait for the contract to be smashed in your hands."

After speaking, Li Ang said goodbye to the Jin Ge Tie Ma quartet, then logged out of the space and disappeared on the spot,

leaving the programmers looking bewildered,

and the players who were originally excited and waiting to buy a house, now with different expressions.

"What he said... seems to make some sense,"

A passerby player wearing a t-shaped sponge headgear paused, and whispered to his companion next to him, "Remember how the Global Supernatural Alliance advertised it?

They have been stabilizing the exchange rate between game currency and real-world currency, encouraging players to use real-world currency for transactions,

and not recommending players use game currency to directly purchase equipment and props from the mall—this part of the game currency will directly disappear in the real world and cannot be used again.

However, there are always players who do this, so the total amount of game currency on the market is always slowly increasing and fluctuatingly balanced.

Speculating on houses now may end very badly..."

"But I saw that in addition to large organizations, there were also many people who bought land before?"

A player wearing a p-shaped sponge headgear weakly said, "They can't all be paying the IQ tax, right?"

"Maybe they're waiting for others to pay the IQ tax?"

The t-shaped headgear rubbed his chin and said, "The number of plots on the periphery of the square is large, but the total amount of plots closest to the mall is limited.

If you first take down the land surrounding the mall, and then publicize it outwards, you won't have to worry about finding someone to take over..."

The voices of these two people's discussions were not quiet, and for a while, all the players in the queue were talking in low voices.

Among them, the faces of several players were particularly ugly, staring at the four programmers and gnashing their teeth.

They were probably shills for the real estate speculation group, and at this moment they hated Li Ang so much that their teeth itched. If it weren't for the NPCs guarding them, they would have rushed up and surrounded the programmers, demanding that they tell them Li Ang's name.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Jin Ge Tie Ma quartet simply went offline directly.

Along with the homebuyers who were queuing up, many also withdrew.

In the next moment, Li Ang returned to his living room,

The doors and windows in the room were tightly closed, the curtains were drawn, and nothing had changed.

Chai Da Xiaojie (Miss Chai), wearing Li Ang's appearance, was lying sideways on the sofa in a salted fish posture, wearing headphones and playing Honor of Kings. Seeing Li Ang return, she put her index finger in front of her lips, signaling Li Ang not to speak first.

"Ahem,"

Chai Chai cleared her throat, while manipulating Li Bai to kill in all directions, and said in a gentle voice, "Remember this point in the future, I haven't slept yet."

"Eh?"

A cute female voice came from the earphones, sounding very lovely, "Why do you need to remember this duck?"

"To let you remember that I haven't slept at this point because I'm thinking of you."

Chai Chai's expression was gentle, her eyes shining, and her voice was extremely magnetic, making Li Ang, who was standing in the living room, feel a little uncomfortable—seeing himself being so flirty was really strange.

"Eiya~ Why are you like this~"

The girl sweetly acted coquettishly,

Chai Chai's face was even more proud, and while picking her feet, she continued to say corny love words in Li Ang's voice.

"Do you know what color I like the most? I like blue the most, because blue=becauseloveyoueveryday."

"I want to be the little bear at your bedside, to defeat the evil dragon in your dreams for you."

"Challenge to not think of you for a hundred days, today is the first day, the challenge failed."

Chai Chai's corny love words came wave after wave, making the cute girl on the other end of the phone laugh non-stop,

and she hadn't been delayed in slaughtering the opposite side in the game, blocking the opponent in the spring and unable to come out.

Finally, until Li Ang walked over with a dark face, she reluctantly told the girl to continue playing together tomorrow, decisively pushed down the enemy's base, and turned off the game.

"Here, return it to you."

Chai Chai sat up from the sofa, threw the phone to Li Ang, and proudly put her hands on her hips, "How is it, mission accomplished perfectly."

"What... did you do..."

"Housekeeping,"

Chai Chai said as a matter of course, "I was originally playing Honor of Kings myself, to create an on-site alibi for you.

As a result, you had a friend request in the game, so we played together,

Eh, who is this girl, you didn't secretly flirt with her behind Shanshan's back, right? She sounds pretty cute, not bad~"

Li Ang glanced at the game record and said to Chai Chai expressionlessly, "That's my landlady, thirty-nine years old, female, unmarried."
