Chapter 561 Ji Ming's Spring Festival

Although according to the development of the earth, these 10 million already include the vast majority of wealthy people in the world who can afford VR helmets + 647 yuan account activation fee.

However, major helmet manufacturers are engaged in crazy price wars in order to occupy the mainstream market, and officials in various countries continue to increase preferential measures in order to increase manpower.

At first, it cost 10,000 yuan, and the price of the VR helmet was unmarketable, but the price actually collapsed.

It’s even said that the price of the latest early adopter model has dropped to one thousand yuan, and five former VR flagship games are also given away.

Of course, under the suppression of "Double Moon Earning", these users who bought the helmets to reward themselves in the New Year would not even look at them.

"What kind of rags are these? Dogs don't even want to play with them!"

The night I got the helmet, my savings card was reduced by 647. From then on, I slept with the game every day and became a popular electronic pet.

However, although this is another wave of entrants, compared to the major guilds that were still confused a year ago, everyone this year is obviously much more skilled.

Many players have signed labor contracts with various companies and units before they even join the game. They can join the job after reaching level 20 in Novice Village within seven days.

Yes, after a brief period of suspicion and discussion, "Two Moons Earning" has become more and more influential in the real world, almost becoming an inseparable part.

After all, as long as people enter the game, their body in reality is almost like an object, and entertainment and work can be carried out in another world.

The substantial reduction in actual demand and the surge in jobs have directly alleviated many of the already increasingly acute conflicts on the planet.

Although at worst, if Ji Ming goes crazy and shuts down the server of "Two Moons Earning" one day, drastic changes will directly lead to an explosion of earth's civilization and the official start of S3.

But if we look at the best, as long as "Double Moon Earning" can continue to operate stably, get rid of a lot of constraints, and return to the negotiating table, the earth's civilization will develop much faster than before.

At least the only space station in the sky now allows foreign astronauts to observe and learn, and participate in the lunar base construction project.

Just like the period of the fastest human development in the last century, at least in the "external" field, everyone is coming together again.

This is a new beginning, and perhaps in a few years, it will be determined by historians as a great sign that earth civilization has entered a new era.

In the midst of a series of good news, Ji Ming finally chose to spend this year's Spring Festival in the livelier headquarters of the Foreign Affairs Bureau.

As a local employee of the Foreign Affairs Bureau, Adele naturally got a Spring Festival holiday and could experience the feeling of a festival in another world.

So even though she was not even a generation behind her in age strictly speaking, the teacher was the elder, so Ji Ming still gave her some lucky money.

And since we didn’t give it last year, we directly arranged two copies for her this year.

"Okay!"

But before Ji Ming could announce his travel plans for the next few days, he saw a hand reaching out.

"What are you doing?"

"Where's mine? I want it too."

The person who can commit such a shameless act is naturally a person whose virtue is comparable to that of a lion cub and whose upbringing is comparable to the Aurora Dance of Saint He.

"Damn it, let's not forget that you are only nine years younger than me. You are already an adult, right? Why do you still need lucky money when you are almost twenty?"

Ji Guang had already guessed that he would say this, and immediately pointed to Adele who was standing aside.

"You're right, but if I remember correctly, isn't she eighteen this year? How to put it!"

"Look at your hysterical look, how embarrassing it is!"

Ji Ming immediately stood in front of Adele.

"I am a teacher. Once I am a teacher, I will always be a father. Isn't it natural to give some money to my children during the Chinese New Year?"

…

"Did you miss half a sentence?"

"No."

…

"Why don't you ask me if I dare to call you daddy?"

"Because you are so brave."

…

"Let's give it a try. What if I don't dare?"

"Oh, my God, I remember you have a father, don't you? If your parents are complete, then go to your biological father for money!"

Now Ji Ming only hopes that one day when the little lion and Aurora Dance meet, he can bow respectfully to this shameless master of the field.

Because her next words turned out to be.

"Didn't I tell you? My biological father made his fortune by asking others to call him daddy - he was a bride-in-law."

"I understand, this is the family tradition of your Lao Bai family, right?"

"Yeah, my grandpa did it too."

"You are really..."

"father."

"..."

Ji Ming had no choice but to send her a red envelope worth four yuan on Fetion.

"Three pieces of iced tea and one piece of pudding to celebrate the New Year. Oh, save some flowers."

Aurora Dance's originally joyful expression froze immediately after seeing the numbers. He hesitated to speak, and finally turned into one sentence.

"Damn it, you're just stingy!"

After that, she went offline angrily.

Since there was no family left anyway (no hell joke intended), Ji Ming and Adele had a New Year's Eve dinner with local colleagues at the Foreign Affairs Bureau.

As he continued to eat, his Fetion began to receive messages in batches.

First, the classic blessing sent by Director Chen at a glance: [New Year's Eve, everything is renewed. Zhao Dongsheng and his family wish you that in the new year, your health will be like an evergreen tree, your career will be smooth like the spring breeze, and your family will be harmonious like the warm sunshine of spring. Happy Spring Festival , happy family! 】

Then there were a series of blessing messages from old colleagues in the Foreign Affairs Bureau, some of which were sent in groups, such as that boy Wu Ye actually wished his parents good health, and some were individual messages, such as Brother Tiaozi asking him if he wanted to go to his place to celebrate the New Year next year.

Even the Gaul guy [Iris Temple], the demon warrior Shan Lili, and White Eagle Chinese senior Howard, who had met in the underground city a long time ago, sent him Spring Festival blessings.

Especially the former, who also spoke a lot of nonsense to him in Mandarin.

Low EQ: "What this damn Gallic barbarian is talking about is his motherfucker!"

High EQ: [Haha, I understand, congratulations on being single! 】

However, after thinking for a moment, Ji Ming decided to report Howard's private contact to Lao Zhao.

But the reply I got was a sentence worth savoring: [Harm, isn’t it just a blessing, normal communication, it doesn’t matter]

Gee, it seems that things on earth have really changed a lot...

At this time, a message from the little lion was also sent: [Hey, it’s still fun to celebrate the New Year. I’m making hot pot with the old guys. Come and see how my Spring Festival sushi is? 】

As a descendant of Heavenly Soldiers from some of the brightest fantasy parallel universes, he was born in Pingdong Mansion under the jurisdiction of the Yamato Advocate General, which translates as a strange creature of old Tokyo. This kid actually has a terrible tradition of eating sushi during the New Year.

But the picture he accompanied was not the so-called "celebration sushi" that made Ji Ming's eyes darken and dyed the rice red, but a picture...

[My evaluation is that dogs cannot change their eating of shit]

【envy! You're just jealous of your buddy's ability to pick up girls! 】

That's right, as the saying goes, a country can be changed but a character cannot be changed. Giuseppe is causing trouble for the little girl again.

And judging from the outline of the ears, which are somewhat spiky but still relatively round, she is obviously a half-elf girl... Okay, maybe she is a grandma.

…

Oops, it’s hard to say who will pick up whom.

Finally, there is Aurora Dance. She is more aggressive because the words she captioned the picture are: [Family].

Below is an outdoor photo with a somewhat low angle of view, obviously taken in a medical institution such as a nursing home.

In addition to the medical staff in the corridor, there are festive decorations everywhere on the walls, floor and ceiling.

There was also a pair of well-dressed middle-aged men and women who were communicating with the doctor, and a little boy who was leaning on the railing of the pavilion and looking out.

Ji Ming thought for a while and replied.

【fine】

Then he added another sentence.

【envious】

Sincerity is the ultimate skill. Aurora Dance, who thought Ji Ming would scold him even if he didn't break his guard, obviously didn't expect such a reply.

After a while, I sent a message [You are also my family (love)]

Ji Ming couldn't help laughing, thought about it, and replied "Love you (love)"

But no matter what they both thought, the little boss was really about to vomit, and he was so anxious that he was picking out words in the lower right corner of Ji Ming's field of vision.

[I'm already wondering whether you are expressing your love with each other or disgusting each other! 】

Afterwards, many people sent blessings to Ji Ming. From the underground city to the distant deep forest kingdom, Ji Ming returned one by one.

[No, I order you to take the next three days off.] This is Archangel Sylvia.

[No, I order you to work for the next three days] This is Bloomfield, the lazy dog.

[We’re celebrating the New Year, we’ll talk about it later.] This is Heterucia who wants to drag Ji Ming to work overtime.

[We’re celebrating the New Year, we’ll talk about it later] This is Eleanor, who was still working overtime until the last second.

There were too many things to do, so when the busy work was over and Ji Ming could finally use his chopsticks, he found that the dishes had been cleared and everyone had left the table.

Only Adele, who was sitting next to him, was left: "..."

"Ahem, I'm sorry, the world of adults is like this. There are always endless interpersonal relationships to deal with."

Okay, Ji Ming’s first meal of the New Year: instant noodles!

...and Adele couldn't stand it anymore, so she went to the kitchen to cook him two dishes.

"Wow, you are really my considerate little cotton-padded jacket. I am so touched. I want to reward you as a teacher. Please don't leave tonight."

So early the next morning, Ji Ming took Adele and boarded the recently opened train that could go directly to Sunshine City.

"We, master and apprentice, secretly go home for the New Year and don't let them play with us!"

…

"Especially that one from Aurora Dance!"

Adele:? ? ?

After all, Sunshine City is also Ji Ming's land of Longxing. Since he is celebrating the New Year at his own home, there will naturally be no accidents.

And by the time they visit all the tourist attractions built and developed by players, this rare long vacation will almost be over.

"goodbye!"

After bidding farewell to Adele who was reluctant to leave, Ji Ming, who had to return to work, embarked on the road to Qixia City again.

However, he still took a long detour halfway through to see Eleanor's Black Water Territory and Feia's Far Mountain Territory.

The development of the Blackwater Territory has long been on the right track, so under Ji Ming's guidance, the Far Mountain Territory of "Aiguifeisui" has become a rare stop for players in the Northeast Glow region.

And as we all know, nobles, who are inherently cowardly and stupid, are best at swallowing their anger and being self-righteous.

So after the Far Mountain Territory announced that it would accept the pioneers, the resistance and opposition it encountered was far less than Prince Philip had imagined.

With almost no obstacles, Fia successfully obtained external help from the pioneers, and the previous alliances and trade routes were not broken.

There was no way, although the pioneers' position was somewhat biased towards the royal faction, which made the opposition nobles who were bent on usurping the throne unhappy.

But the goods from the players were so fragrant!

Whether it was the black lacquered arms or the shiny jewelry and ceramics, they were all top-notch goods, and there was really a rigid demand.

If you asked them to go directly to the pioneers, a group of country bumpkins from the outside world, to do business, for their own face, everyone would definitely not agree.

If you asked them to do business with Princess Eleanor, who was not mixed in the aristocratic circle and had her own school, for their own dignity, everyone would not agree.

But if you asked them to do business with Princess Fia, who was born in a pure and innocent family and was backed by Prince Oni-chan, everyone would definitely be willing.

Man, this is the core idea of ​​diplomacy - compromise!

So Eleanor ate the bottom-level demand market, and Fia ate the high-level face market. These two companies actually took the trade share of the Northeast region directly.

Therefore, under the pressure of reality, both Eleanor and Fia were a little more mature than the last time Ji Ming saw them.

"Then there is nothing to say, give some New Year's money to the hard-working children."

The first month of the year is the New Year, and Ji Ming, who has no shortage of money to spend, plucked a few more hairs.

As a result, the share given to Eleanor was returned by Archbishop Tenis in the form of New Year's money.

"Ji Ming, although you are already 29 this year, according to the rules of the Orientals, you should be a person who has a family and a career, but who says I am an old succubus?"

"According to our age calculation, even if you are a hedonist, you still need to maintain a healthy body and mind at your age, a clean child."

"Alas, young..."

Maybe it's because Eleanor's life has been on the right track, Tenis, who has lost his last concern, looks much older.

Although she still looked like a perfect older sister, her behavior was no different from that of an ordinary old lady.

So much so that when she spoke to Ji Ming, she was lying on a rocking chair under the winter sun, speaking slowly, lowering her eyebrows and closing her eyes.

Anyone could see the gradually condensing death in her, so Eleanor, who was sitting next to Ji Ming, was always a little depressed.

After listening to the archbishop's chattering about many things about the past, about youth, and about his father, the two left the garden in silence.
