Chapter 501 New Special Item: Lucky 8-Sided Dice
Looking at the prompt on the phone, Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
After all, he had been waiting for the store to be refreshed for a month.
Because he was eager to purchase the [Forced Purchase Card Limit].
Before, he tricked Zhao Ying into coming to the company and told her to work at a media company. But for a month, he had left her in a charity organization.
Zhao Ying has complained to Chen Yan several times, saying that Chen Yan does not keep his word.
Moreover, he wanted to overthrow Zhao Qingtian through a war of public opinion, but relying on Toutiao Technology alone was not safe, so he needed a media company as a helper.
In the previous six months, Chen Yan had not spent much of his happiness points except for buying [Polaroid Photo Paper] to check the company's projects, so he had accumulated a lot of [Happiness Points].
The store was refreshed twice last month, and he has already bought 2 billion strong buying card quotas.
Now, he only needs to buy another 1 billion quota.
By then, with a quota of 3 billion, according to Weibo's current market value of 40 billion, Chen Yan's shareholding can reach 7...5%. With a little operation, it will be enough to arrange for his own people to enter Weibo to supervise and influence some of Weibo's decisions.
Thinking of this, Chen Yan said to the driver, "Master Liu, drive slower. When we get to the destination, go out and make two circles."
Master Liu is Chen Yan's special driver, and he has always been very calm. After hearing what Chen Yan said, although he didn't know why his boss made this request, he still answered directly, "Okay, Mr. Chen."
As he spoke, he slowed down the car , keeping it moving slowly at 40 miles per hour.
Chen Yan unlocked his phone, opened the game, and prepared to see what new products were available in the system store.
As the game store opened, several rows of shelves from the system store appeared in front of Chen Yan.
At a glance, Chen Yan saw the [Forced Purchase Card Limit] that he had been thinking about day and night.
【Forced purchase card limit】
Amount: 2 billion
Value: 30 Happiness Points
Note: Use this item to replenish the quota of the forced purchase card. The quota can only be purchased once, but can be accumulated or split. This quota can only take effect if you have the [Forced Purchase Card].
Looking at the limit of the forced purchase card, Chen Yan was stunned.
"Huh? Wasn't it 1 billion? How did it become 2 billion?"
"Could it be that... if I buy too much, will the price per unit increase?"
Chen Yan felt that this would indeed be a lot more convenient.
After all, as his wealth grew, refreshing the 1 billion yuan limit at a time was no longer enough to meet his needs.
Therefore, it would be more convenient for Chen Yan to appropriately increase the credit limit of the compulsory purchase card.
Take the acquisition of Weibo for example. With an extra 1 billion, Chen Yan could acquire an extra 2…5% of the shares, bringing his stake in Weibo to 10%.
In this way, Chen Yan can have a greater influence on Weibo, and it will be more convenient for Zhao Ying to supervise and read gossip on it.
Thinking of this, Chen Yan clicked the [Buy] option without hesitation.
Over the past six months, Chen Yan has had a lot of happiness.
The intimacy between Yu Qiaoqiao and Lu Man has reached the maximum value of 200 points. It can provide Chen Yan with 40 points of happiness every month.
Later on, as Ying Ge and He Mengxue’s intimacy gradually approached the maximum value, they could contribute 30 points of happiness to Chen Yan on average every month.
In this way, Chen Yan will receive 70 points of happiness every month.
It is more than enough to buy these 30 happiness items.
After buying the quota this time, Chen Yan took a look at his happiness value. There were still 160 points left.
This is the happiness value left after he buys a bunch of [Xiao Ha's Polaroid Photo Paper] every month.
After closing the purchase interface with satisfaction, Chen Yan prepared to turn off the game and go to Lu Man.
As a result, at this moment, suddenly, he discovered that there was an extra grid in the store this time.
Chen Yan took a closer look and found that this time the store had actually refreshed a new special item.
In the previous store update, Chen Yan obtained three permanent items. Chen Yan gave [Professional Potential Potion], [Xiao Ha's Polaroid Photo Paper] and [Forced Buy Card Limit].
From then on, every time the store refreshed, there were only these three items.
At most, a bottle of other potion will appear occasionally.
Chen Yan was tired of it. So every time he bought what he needed, he would exit the game. But he didn't expect that this time, he would encounter a new special item.
The store hasn't had any new products for a long time, so Chen Yan is of course looking forward to it very much .
He rubbed his hands together and then tapped the object lightly, wanting to see what it was.
As he clicked, a detailed introduction to the item popped up on the phone screen.
【Lucky 8-sided dice】
Value: 150 happiness points.
Introduction: This dice has 8 sides, 3 black sides and 5 red sides.
The three black faces represent minor evil, medium evil, and major evil respectively.
The 5 red faces represent minor luck, luck, medium luck, great luck and everything goes well.
When you want to predict whether an event will be good or bad, you can throw the dice on the ground. The dice will show whether the event will be good or bad.
If it is a red face (auspicious), it will be increased by one additional level (for example, from small auspicious to auspicious, and auspicious to medium auspicious).
Note: But according to a study by a dark wizard, this dice cannot actually predict good or bad luck, but it can change your destiny. The moment the dice falls, the fate line of the event you predicted will change accordingly.
Therefore, it is also called [Gambler's Ambition].
Looking at the introduction of this new item, Chen Yan took a breath, "Hiss... so many words."
Then, he studied the object carefully, and began to absorb more and more cold air.
"This thing...why does it feel like a double-edged sword?"
"If you don't use it properly, it's easy to cause problems."
Chen Yan thought about it for a while.
If it is the first explanation, then he actually has no risk. It is just a prediction. But if it is the second explanation, then things become interesting.
Because, even though this dice has a total of 8 sides, according to the explanation above: if you encounter a red side (lucky), it will be raised to a higher level.
Then, it is very likely that this dice cannot roll [Everything goes well] because [Everything goes well] cannot be upgraded further.
So, in other words, there are three bad things and only four good things.
Chen Yan felt that this thing was a trap...
You might become a great teammate for the enemy.
While thinking about this, Chen Yan began to hesitate whether to buy it or not.
After all, it is not easy for him to save up happiness points. If he spends them all at once, he will hardly be able to buy things before the guaranteed happiness points arrive next month.
However, Chen Yan thought again, it is extremely difficult to update new special items in this broken system. It takes several months to produce a new item. If he does not buy it, he may not know when the next new item will be available.
Thinking of this, Chen Yan made up his mind and clicked [Buy].
As Chen Yan made the purchase, the dice on the mobile phone screen began to roll, and after a moment, it suddenly disappeared from the screen.
Chen Yan felt his hand sink.
He looked down and saw an eight-sided dice in his hand.
The dice felt heavy in the hand and was silver-white all over, as if it was made of some precious metal.
Chen Yan picked up the dice and turned it over to take a look. Sure enough, there were black or red words on each side, indicating good or bad luck.
Chen Yan thought about it and decided that since there was nothing else to do, why not... just give it a try?
Because he didn't know how effective this dice was, Chen Yan only dared to try something that didn't have much of an impact.
Thinking of this, Chen Yan's eyes lit up and he had an idea.
He held the dice, thinking silently about his trip to Lu Man's house tonight. Then he loosened his grip and threw the dice onto the seat next to him.
I don’t know if there is really any magical power.
After the dice flew out of Chen Yan's hand, it fell on the seat and started spinning wildly.
One circle, two circles, three circles... I don't know how many circles passed, but the dice's rotation speed became slower and slower.
Chen Yan stretched his neck to look, and then he saw the dice spinning and slowly stopping, and what was displayed on the top side was... Xiao Xiong.
"Hiss~" Chen Yan took a breath of cold air.
My hands are a bit dark.
The first time I threw it, I was a little fierce...
This is really great luck.
Chen Yan raised his head and looked towards the front of the car.
Because it was night, it was dark in front of the car. Even with the street lights, it was still dim.
For some reason, Chen Yan always felt as if there was a ferocious beast waiting for him ahead.
Chen Yan hesitated for a moment, thinking that he might as well avoid it and not go to Lu Man's house tonight.
However, he also wanted to know what this [Little Xiong] predicted would happen.
So, after hesitating for a moment, Chen Yan gritted his teeth and decided to go to the dangerous place to see what the standard of this prop is!
With this in mind, Chen Yan put away the dice and said to the driver, Master Liu, "Master Liu, that's enough. Speed up."
Master Liu agreed, sped up, and took Chen Yan to Lu Man's villa area.
When they arrived at the gate of the villa area, Chen Yan asked Master Liu to go back first, and then he entered the community and went to Lu Man's house.
I rang the doorbell, and within a few seconds , the door of the villa slowly opened.
Chen Yan walked in. He had a bad feeling in his heart: Lu Man always liked to joke around in the past, why didn't he prepare anything this time?
That's not her style.
Coupled with the psychological hint given by the dice, he felt that things were going to be a bit unlucky tonight.
While thinking, Chen Yan came to the door of the villa. The door was ajar, obviously it was Lu Man who opened it just now.
Chen Yan pushed the door open and looked inside. He saw Lu Man sitting on the sofa in pajamas, looking at her phone expressionlessly.
Having been mentally prepared, Chen Yan was not surprised.
He walked over, put the food down, and asked, "What's wrong? Manman. It seems that you are in a bad mood."
Hearing Chen Yan's words, Lu Man sighed and handed the phone in his hand to Chen Yan.
Chen Yan picked it up and took a look, only to find that a WeChat group was displayed on the phone interface.
Chen Yan knew that Lu Man, like himself, had secretly registered a secondary account and pretended to be a newbie in the entertainment industry to eavesdrop on gossip and news in the industry.
Even the character played by Lu Man has her own detailed personality: 18 years old, just finished the college entrance examination, the test results were not ideal, and she was admitted to a junior college, so she worked part-time during college and came to the film and television industry to make money...
She even occasionally posts some detailed campus photos of Yu Qiaoqiao without showing her face on her own circle of friends.
This also allowed her to join many groups and hear a lot of gossip.
Now she gave herself this WeChat group, is there something going on?
Thinking of this, Chen Yan couldn't help but take a look at the content of this group chat.
It was discovered that this group was discussing Lu Man's open declaration of war against the Xu brothers.
The content of the discussion was not favorable.
"I don't know what Lu Man is thinking. This is too arrogant."
"+1. I also think she has been a little bit drifting in the past two years."
"If a movie of mine can make 4 billion at the box office, I'll be proud of it, haha. But even if I'm proud of it, I won't say I can make another one."
"I agree. I agree."
Looking at these negative comments, Chen Yan was a little hesitant for a moment: Could it be that... this is the reason why Xiao Xiong is so evil this time?
The bet I made with Lu Man caused so much negative news, and made her angry?
It feels... not that simple.
