That night, Summers and Cole still couldn't get the long-awaited free food and lodging.

However, it's not that Hu Lei is stingy, it's really that his family is so big that he can't let go of these two foreign friends. Moreover, to put it bluntly, although these two people were temporarily recruited as employees of the small store, after all, they don't know the roots, and it will be difficult to have too high a trust value for them for a while.

What's more, the system is still in a state of upgrade, and the entire hall on the first floor is empty, and God knows if there will be a supernatural phenomenon like yesterday, which is not suitable for outsiders to see.

For all these reasons, although Summers and Cole looked at Hu Lei with a resentful face like two Wang Xingren abandoned by their masters, they were still inevitably kicked out one by one.

Of course, as a good boss who is considerate of his employees, Hu Lei still generously threw them two big red tickets as the cost of food and accommodation for the day.

Although the money is not much, the two foreign buddies are not too little, which is at least enough for them to open a beautiful big bed room in the express hotel, and then eat two rice bowls with Yanhuang characteristics for dinner.

Having said that, it seems that the last time I bet on Zheng Xian, I lost to a shop of myself, and there has been no movement for so many days, so my brother in law doesn't want to repay the debt!

Hu Lei felt the need to urge him to fulfill the gambling contract as soon as possible, and it was also good to use it as a staff dormitory for the small shop.

Seeing the two of them leave, looking at their elated backs, a deep feeling of being tricked surged from Hu Lei's heart.

However, this idea was fleeting, and he is now most concerned about system upgrades. Look at the time, this wave of system upgrades has been almost twenty hours, except for last night ET opened a big vortex and swept away all his belongings in the hall on the first floor, there has been no change, which makes him a little apprehensive, anyway, there will be no probability of upgrade failure.

ET！

Hu Lei called silently in his heart.

"During the system upgrade, do not disturb, the remaining time of the upgrade is 27 hours, 30 minutes and 18 seconds"

Hu Lei tried hard to suppress the urge to smash the cup and flip the table, what kind of broken system, can't he leave someone on duty?

There is no way, but to wait patiently.

Nothing was said all night.

Early the next morning, when the sky was bright, Hu Lei vaguely heard a muffled sound of "bang" coming from downstairs. He didn't sleep well that night, but because of the noise, he woke up instantly, and he realized who was the first time, and immediately turned over and got out of bed and ran barefoot downstairs.

In the hall on the first floor, the change that Hu Lei was expecting finally appeared.

"Ouch, that's good. Hu Lei looked at the new scene in front of him, it is worthy of a system upgrade, and it is not known how many times stronger than the last time it was activated.

He walked in a figure-eight step with his hands behind his back, and his head was held high, as if he were a lord who was examining his territory.

The entire first floor has undergone earth-shaking changes in terms of layout.

The original place where the counter and pastry display case were originally placed at this time is a pair of bar counters more than three meters long, this bar is transparent, cold to the touch like glass and crystal, I don't know what material is made of. What surprised Hu Lei the most was that the inside of the bar was hollow and filled with water, and colorful tropical ornamental fish swam around in it, making it look like a small aquarium from a distance.

There are high wooden stools lined up on the side of the counter, so it should be nice to sit in such a position and watch the fish wander around while eating delicious sweets.

Hu Lei feels that just this change is enough to raise the compulsion of the small store by several grades.

In addition to the bar, there are also many textured tables and chairs in the hall, which are quite more numerous than before. And although there are many of them, they don't feel very crowded.

The position by the window is a row of booths, and the display method is not much different from before, but the tables and chairs provided by the system are much better than the second-hand goods that Hu Lei found.

On the side of the hall, a small area was deliberately set aside, where the curtain that Hu Lei used to play movies was hung at this time, and microphones and speakers were placed next to it, needless to say, this must be a playback area specially set aside by the system.

Seeing this, he didn't mention how beautiful it was, this was the first time he experienced the intimacy of the system.

This is not the end, this system upgrade is not only the furnishings in the hall, through the glass window Hu Lei found that even the space at the entrance of the small store has been used by the system.

He opened the door and walked out, and at this time, the area in front of the small shop had been surrounded by a row of exquisitely made bamboo fences, forming a small courtyard, and even the two big trees in front of the door were unceremoniously incorporated into the yard by the system.

There are many more flowers in this newly formed courtyard, and in addition to the triangular plums that the landlady planted in front of the window, there are also many varieties that Hu Lei does not recognize at all, but in this way, it makes this place more like a small garden.

Under the big trees in the small courtyard, among the flowers, there are seven or eight small round tables scattered but not messy. With this environment, Hu Lei dares to guarantee that there will be no more comfortable afternoon tea shop in the entire Yucheng than his own small shop.

Hu Lei lingered inside and out for a long time with an incomparably wonderful mood, and did not stop until Gu Qianqian and Du Xiaoxiao went downstairs to prepare for a morning run.

"Wow, Hu Lei, is this still our small shop," the bear child's eyes widened, and he rubbed his eyes vigorously in disbelief.

"How is it, do you like it?", looking at her cute and cute energy, Hu Lei couldn't be more proud.

"Like. The bear child shouted, and then jumped around the hall to look around, overflowing with joy, but apparently her favorite was the big fish tank at the bar.

"Qianqian, how is it, it's not bad. Hu Lei smiled, but there was a hint of expectation in his eyes. How to say this expression, it is not only like showing off, but also like showing merit. Who made Gu Qianqian the only one who knew his secret!

Gu Qianqian smiled lightly as always, but Hu Lei still saw a hint of excitement in her eyes sensitively.

"It's very good, our little shop will definitely go to the next level. ”

"A must. Hu Lei nodded.

"By the way, didn't you say that this system upgrade will take forty-eight hours?", Gu Qianqian suddenly asked.

Hu Lei was stunned, he was happy just now, how could he forget this stubble, the estimated time of the system seems to have never been advanced, and he didn't seem to have received a prompt that the upgrade was completed.

ET？

"During the system upgrade, do not disturb, the remaining time of the upgrade is 13 hours, 48 minutes and 32 seconds"

Sure enough, it's not done yet, there will still be half a day, so let's wait patiently.

Hu Lei smiled awkwardly and explained to Gu Qianqian, Gu Qianqian didn't care, it was only more than ten hours, not to mention that this was also an estimated time.

However, she is more concerned about another question now, "Hu Lei, do you think that the space in the store seems to be much larger than before?" ”

"Hey, do you feel that way?"
