204 I Got Nothing?!

"So… Have you decided to join forces with Yang Ling yet?" Yun asked as she passed Jin another set of new clothes while hinting to quickly join forces with Yang Ling so that they would have a boost in sales.

"Still considering." Jin thanked Yun for the new set of clothes and helping him with the housework at home. "You can repay me by accepting her proposal." Yun was blunt but Jin shook his head.

"As much as I want to, she is a Royal Zodiac member. No matter what, I have to be careful when dealing with her. Perhaps, I will ask Xiong Da to come with me to set up a proper one time contract for this particular dungeon just to be on a safe side." Jin said as he entered the bar island to take some onigiris out to eat.

"Hmm, that's a good idea too I guess." Yun resigned asking, knowing that Jin probably had his own plans. Meanwhile, Jin was looking at the Panda Port and realised the System had yet to give him his rewards for the Dungeon City Fortress option that he picked.

"Ehhh, about that. Right. You see, the System felt that you have not really build a city fortress yet. I mean, all you have is a piece of empty land with no blueprints and no infrastructure in place. Hence, I think the System would not be giving you the entire rewards." Yun embarrassingly admitted which made Jin folded his arms at her.

"I am guessing it is not intending to give me that 100,000 dungeon dollars that easily." Jin assumed that the System was more of a cheapskate than him.

"And…almost everything else. I promise I will force the rest of the rewards out from the System." Yun raised her hand up high to make a vow, knowing that the rift between the System and Jin would just get even further if this continued on unchecked.

Jin did not have much expectation but at the very least he still got his top grade store sign and that annoying large panda billboard outside his shop that kind of spoilt the aesthetics of the traditional storehouse feel. "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." Jin shrugged his shoulders and looked at Yun. "And? Do I still get the increase in store rankings?"

"Nope…because the increase in store rank will only work if you have an additional store opened in the Dungeon City Fortress, which you currently do not have. Besides, the store rank increase depends on, as what the System had said, the amount of profits you turn over each day."

"Basically, I get nothing then. Why are you going around the bush to tell me this for? You could have just said it straight. I am not getting anything from the System." Jin felt really pissed early in the morning.

"Well, I did help you get something out of this whole entire mess…" That was when Yun who could not see eye to eye with Jin, suddenly brightened up. "A half increment of your dungeon supplier level to Level 2.5! Are you ready to see the changes?" Yun beckoned Jin to follow her out of the shop which he did so reluctantly. What kind of system gives you a 0.5 for a level?

When he walked out of the door, he realised the sound of the door was different and noticed that the traditional storehouse shutters turned into something totally different. It felt like Jin just came out from a different store instead of his.

"Do not worry, there was no one around to be able to see the change I had made. Besides, I have a feeling this little princess of ours had disabled the security cameras around the area for quite some time so I believed the system took that chance to modify it." Yun gleaming with excitement.

"You mean that you predicted I would have asked this question in the morning?" Jin raised his eyebrows at Yun as she nodded her head. "Knowing that you would not trust the System, the chance of you asking that question was really high. Even if you had not asked, I would have shown it to you."

Yes, it was indeed a drastic change as compared to before. This time around, there was a big screen at the centre of the shop instead of the shutters. The screen was advertising the different types of dungeons that Jin was having.

In addition, the front screen occasionally broadcasted footage of his customers running the dungeons which the magic eye managed to capture, that made Jin feel that they were some dramatic cinematic scenes from some movie. At the two ends of the large screen were the entrance and exit. There was even a dimensional port attached beside the entrance door.

"Why this change? Why is there a dimensional port at the side of the door." Jin for some reason felt the dimensional port was the game changer for this half a dungeon supplier level that he suddenly attained.

"Firstly, enter without your phone," Yun said as she opened the door for him and noticed a major upheaval in his store. Almost everything had disappeared. His bar island, his TVs, his wall of honour. Everything was gone. Jin decided to stay calm for a moment and hoped there was something more to this upheaval he experienced.

"You looked calmer than expected. I thought you would go apeshit and ask where everything had gone to." Yun said as the store was really empty with the exception of a couple registration machines with large Panda statues holding on the sides of the machines. The rest of the room surroundings looked similar to the Zen gallery on the third floor but less tranquil and more pleasing to the eyes since it was meant to welcome people.

The registration machine was as interactive as the Loot Box Vending Machine he had on the second floor but this was slightly different.

"Welcome to Dungeons and Pandas! If this is the first time you participate in Dungeons and Pandas, The pandas will recommend you to register your information here first by installing this app prior to entering the shop!" An interactive screen with a panda wearing a receptionist outfit was shown.

There was free secured wifi in the shop that allowed the customers to be connected to the System's server to download the app and only the app. Hence, there was no access to the open internet wifi or whatsoever of anyone to leech. Aside from that, there were posters on the walls in the store that was rather dummy proof for cultivators and potential customers alike to enter the dungeon instance.

"If you do not have any phone with you or do not wish to install the app, no worries! We can issue you a one-time dimensional tag that allows you to enter the shop!" The Panda Receptionist said.

"Wait a minute…so you are saying that my whole shop has turned into a dungeon instance?!" Jin finally understood why the dimensional port was outside of the entrance. Yun nodded her head frantically.

"Oh, you do not have to worry about commoners like Zhen Qing. There is no time dilation nor compression in the store's dimensional instance. We are using an instance just so that there is more space for interacting and more stuff we can put in." Yun asked Jin to put his phone on the dimensional port on the registration machine since each machine was also installed with one and he was teleported to his shop and upon looking, he pinched himself to make sure he was truly awake.

For he was absolutely stunned by the brand new layout of his shop.
