CH 8

By late night, including the replenished stamina from the game, Yu Qunqing obtained a total of 50 hexagram stars. In the “Building Materials Explosion” event, he accumulated a total of 2064 building materials. He had over ten thousand gold coins remaining but only six diamonds.

In the darkness, he couldn’t perform major actions. Yu Qunqing felt a few drops of sweat under the covers, so he decided to immediately spend the hexagram stars. Once the entire house was decorated, he should be able to have a small light on during the night.

The balcony railing had been replaced and flower pots were added. With the completion of the balcony area, the study area was now opened.

First, he cleared away the remains of the fire-fighting moth from two days ago and replaced it with new wooden flooring.

He placed an L-shaped multifunctional desk, a comfortable footstool, and a reclining sofa. There was also an artistic chair that resembled an open book, with gaps between the pages specifically designed for readers to casually insert magazines after reading them. It had a unique design and practical functionality.

After adding a dark brown bookshelf, the system notified him that the study area had been fully decorated.

Was that it?

Yu Qunqing looked at the empty desk and bookshelf, feeling puzzled. He immediately opened the gold coin store, and sure enough, there was an additional category for movable furniture.

High-performance gaming laptop, 23,000 gold coins.

“Game Global News January Issue,” 100 gold coins.

Yu Qunqing: “What about my original computer and books?”

The system pretended to be unresponsive. Yu Qunqing scrolled down and discovered another category, “Refurbished Items?”

XF1000 host (refurbished), 2,000 gold coins.

Mechanical keyboard (refurbished), 1,800 gold coins.

There were many familiar old items below. Although the refurbished items were several times cheaper than those in other categories, it was clearly a case of strong-arm tactics.

Complaining was ineffective, so Yu Qunqing reluctantly moved on to the next area for decoration.

The next unlocked area was the bedroom. As soon as he entered, Yu Qunqing protested, “You can’t take away my clothes.”

System: “Organizing them properly is a task in this game.”

Because the bedroom was spacious and only one person lived there, a partition was created during the initial decoration to serve as a dressing room. As soon as this area was unlocked, Yu Qunqing immediately focused on the dressing room, spending two hexagram stars to organize all the clothes. Winter and summer clothes were separated, upper and lower garments were separated, and ties and belts were hung on specially designed racks.

Due to the extensive categorization of clothes, the game introduced a mechanism using an additional hexagram star: the wardrobe was divided into two layers, and the upper layer could be switched with the lower layer simply by using the joystick. Yu Qunqing commented on this, saying, “It has a sense of useless luxury.”
