If the gamers did not create a ruckus and only complained, Pei Qian could pretend that he did not hear anything and do nothing.
However, based on the way things were developing, if Pei Qian did not make a stand, the gamers would definitely not let the matter rest.
If he angered the gamers, Ghost General would become a trending topic or something …
That would be bad!
There was a rule in the system: no one could suspect the existence of the system or the challenge. That meant that Pei Qian could do illogical things secretly, but he could not be suspected on a large scale!
For a game as profitable as Ghost General, it would be illogical if it did not release a new version.
It would be fine if no one paid attention to it.
However, if this matter blew up and attracted widespread attention and suspicion from the industry, it would be against the rules.
There was no need for Pei Qian to take such a risk.
Thus, he thought that after Game Designer was done, he could consider creating a new version for Ghost General.
In any case, he could just buy a few original arts for the cards and some templates with new functions. He could then set a lower price and be done with it.
As for the next settlement cycle, he could leave it for the next cycle.
In any case, he would just think of new ways to lose money then!
Just as he was thinking, he arrived at Fish-Catching Internet Cafe.
At the entrance, a few renovation workers were installing the facade.
Above the main entrance was a glass wall with a huge, irregular logo.
In the middle was a salted fish that looked a little silly. It was just like the one in the emoji pack, but it was symbolic. Its posture was very flirtatious, and its tail looked like it was about to turn into a dragon.
There was an abstract letter M on the salted fish. It looked like a rather abstract hand that was tickling it. It also looked like a crown on its head.
Behind the logo was a capital Y that supported the entire structure of the logo.
Pei Qian looked at the logo carefully.
En, it looked cool and silly, but there was a hint of carefulness in it …
There was only this huge logo on the front of the door. There was neither Chinese nor English.
Pei Qian guessed that this was most likely Ma Yang's doing.
This logo must have been designed and custom-made by someone else. He wondered what kind of ridiculous request Ma Yang had made.
There were no words on the front of the door, which suited Pei Qian's thoughts.
When people saw this door, they would feel confused and wonder what this place was for!
Pei Qian walked into the internet cafe and looked around.
The interior had already been renovated, and two cleaners were cleaning the place.
Tables and chairs had also been purchased. All sorts of boxes were piled up in the internet cafe area. Zhang Yuan was engrossed in installing a computer. Two young men were assisting him. They were probably newly hired employees.
"How is it, Brother Qian? Are you satisfied?"
Ma Yang came forward smugly.
Pei Qian nodded. "Yes, it's good."
"Do you need any instructions? Do you like the position of the bar counter? How are the tables and chairs arranged? Also, what books should I put on this bookshelf? "
Ma Yang ran back and forth, thirty percent seeking advice and seventy percent showing off.
He was showing off that he had completed the mission perfectly!
Pei Qian took a closer look. Basically, everything was done according to his requirements. In fact, it was slightly better than he had imagined!
In the coffee area, or the bar area, there was a bar near the computer. You could order all kinds of alcohol or drinks. On the other side, there was a small stage area with a microphone for singing.
Some of the corners of the walls were all made into bookshelves, which looked very artistic.
Looking at the bookshelves, Pei Qian felt the need to say a few words.
At the moment, the bookshelves were still empty. Ma Yang had not decided what books he wanted to buy.
There were comics, bestsellers, classic novels, etc.
Pei Qian looked at the rows of bookshelves and estimated that there would be at least a few thousand books.
If it was a Japanese internet cafe, it would definitely be filled with comics.
At the very least, it would be filled with popular web novels.
However, Pei Qian would definitely not do that.
What if it was filled with comics and attracted many ballers? What would he do then?!
As the saying went, a fat otaku had a wall and a house in Beijing. The spending power of this group of people could not be underestimated!
Comics and figurines definitely could not be bought.
Pei Qian coughed twice and pointed at the bookshelves. "Old Ma, you have to remember. We are not looking at books, we are … "
Ma Yang continued, "Loneliness?"
"What loneliness? It's cool! It's cool! "Pei Qian was speechless.
"Oh, oh, cool." Ma Yang nodded his head vigorously.
"Comics and novels? What's the point? They're too vulgar! "
"It's a high-class book. Do your best to improve it."
Pei Qian instructed.
"Brother Qian, why don't you give me a few titles so that I can buy them?" Ma Yang asked.
Pei Qian nodded. "Alright, let me think."
"'A Brief History of Ukrainian Tractors', 'Small Tractor Drivers' Reader ',' I Built Iron Oxen for the Motherland ',' The Story of the Tractor Station Chief and Chief Agronomist ',' Use and Maintenance of Hand-Guided Tractors' …"
Ma Yang was stunned when he heard that.
"Brother Qian, this … why do you want so many tractors?"
Pei Qian said seriously, "This is also a type of cool! The vulgar is the elegant, understand? "
"Ai, forget it. It's a bit hard for you to understand this. How about this? Go online and search for 'literary youth pretentious books'. Pick the titles that you don't understand and buy as much as you can! "
"Or find an old bookstore and buy those old and tattered books. The older the better!"
"Oh, oh, no problem." Ma Yang nodded his head vigorously.
The two of them went to the back kitchen.
They had not decided on a chef yet, but there were already a few chefs applying for the position. After all, the remuneration was good, and this place did not look like it would be a lot of work.
"The chef must be like what I said before. Don't take any Japanese or French food. I want a chef who can make good home-cooked food, do you hear me? "
Pei Qian was still a little worried and reminded Ma Yang again.
Ma Yang patted his chest. "Don't worry about me!"
Pei Qian nodded. "Indeed!"
After going one round, Pei Qian was very satisfied.
It was bright and beautiful; one look and he knew that it would incur losses!
Pei Qian looked at Ma Yang and said sincerely, "Old Ma, if not for you, I really don't know what to do!"
Ma Yang's big face smiled like a flower. "Ai, look at what you're saying. I'm not that outstanding! Brother Qian, if you praise me like that, I will become arrogant! "
"Don't worry, you can become arrogant. Being low-key is not your style."
Pei Qian returned to the internet cafe area.
Zhang Yuan installed the machine rather quickly, but he had only installed a small part of it.
Pei Qian randomly found a machine that was already lit up.
It felt very good!
The computer table was spacious enough, and the e-sports chair was very comfortable. The keyboard and mouse were not cheap, and it felt very good to type on them.
Pei Qian had no choice; this was the side effect of spending so much money.
"Remember, prepare a small bag of high-grade wipes on every table. Let customers wipe their hands and faces before they get on the computer. Wipe the keyboard and mouse as well. Don't dirty the keyboard, mouse, and earphones.
"Of course, there's nothing we can do if they get dirty. We can only get new ones then," Pei Qian said helplessly.
Ma Yang hesitated. "Will that work, Brother Qian? Will they develop the habit of wiping their hands before they get on the computer? "
Pei Qian thought about it and felt that was true. Hoping that all customers would wipe their hands with wipes?
It was a little unrealistic.
"How about this? When people get on the computer, let the waiter serve them a clean towel, just like in some high-end restaurants.
"All the towels should be cleaned and sterilized at high temperature. Find someone to be in charge!"
Ma Yang's eyes widened. "Isn't this … too extravagant?"
Pei Qian shook his head. "Where do you think we are? A high-end mixed-use entertainment center! Our customers are all high-quality people, so we definitely have to provide high-quality service. Do you understand? "
Pei Qian thought of something else and continued. "Also, smoking is prohibited in our internet cafe. You can't smoke anywhere! If you want to smoke, go outside. "
"Huh?"
Ma Yang had intended to separate the internet cafe into a non-smoking area and a smoking area like other internet cafes. He was just short of a purchase sign.
However, Pei Qian did not allow it.
"But …"
