Largetail fish is the most common fish, somewhat similar to iron ingots in mining, and it is produced in large quantities, but it is also used in large quantities, and it is used in the cooking recipes of almost half of the fish.

But it's still a bit of a luxury to feed pets, and generally speaking, it's enough to feed a normal pet like a brown bear and get some pieces of meat that are usually dropped by beast monsters.

Only those precious and rare pets are very picky eaters, this does not eat, that does not eat, and some even only eat high-end food made by cooking professionals, which is more expensive than people.

Lu Zhe didn't stop Su Ying from feeding, it was really for his wife, big-tailed fish were not much different from garbage.

Just look at the variety of colorful high-grade fish in her bank storage room, and she has no confidence to say anything.

"Actually, I first wanted you to catch a rolling pet to be a pet."

Su Ying stroked the brown bear beside her with one hand.

In order to make it more convenient for her, Lu Zhe controlled the pet and moved towards Su Ying's feet.

At the same time, Su Ying was still holding a fishing rod in her other hand, and she was very skilled in throwing and lifting the rod.

In terms of fishing skills alone, Su Ying had already thrown Lu Zhe several roads at this time, and his wife really didn't have to say anything about his understanding in these side doors.

"Giant pandas?"

"That's right, but later on, the number of giant pandas is too small, it's hard to find, and the level is too high, and now it's impossible to catch it."

"You're really careful." Lu Zhe said with a smile.

As a national treasure of China, the status of the giant panda is certainly not comparable to that of ordinary animals, although in the official information, the ranger's pet and the player's mount all have the figure of the giant panda.

But when you think about it, you know how difficult it is to get it.

Lu Zhe remembered that in his previous life, five years ago, only Qin Qingman and a female player from the Warring States had a giant panda mount.

And there are no more than 10 rangers with panda pets in the world. I have to say that as a national treasure, those skills and attributes are indeed powerful.

Many countries have national treasure pets, such as kangaroos in Australia, elephants in India, and bald eagles in the United States......

But even among these rare pets, the giant panda is also the top existence.

Of course, the most powerful attribute of the giant panda is handsome.

Roll out the door with one, and the card still needs to be said?

It's so windy that you don't have any friends!

Su Ying was very greedy, but after all, she also understood that this kind of thing was not something that could be obtained if you wanted it.

Lu Zhe couldn't do anything about it, in his entire faith in his previous life, he hadn't had a giant panda in five years, and he didn't dare to make such a promise to his wife.

"So, I think rabbits are pretty good-looking, too." Su Ying said with a smile.

"Actually, giant pandas are very difficult to raise, and the food expenses alone cost tens of thousands of gold coins a month." Lu Zhedao.

"How much?" Su Ying couldn't believe it.

Even after the gold price stabilizes in the future, 10,000 gold coins will cost about 10,000 yuan.

Good guy, the minimum wage in S City is only 2,000 yuan.

Ordinary players can't afford to raise it even if they catch it.

"Its food is very complicated, the bamboo must be cold arrow bamboo, and only eat the crispy and tender part, dozens of catties a day, in addition, he must be given a high-grade food made by cooking every day, if there is no recipe, let others make it for him or buy it directly from the exchange, then the price is even higher."

"That's still it, I don't want it in the future, I can't afford to raise it." Su Ying's last little hope was also extinguished.

Lu Zhe said with a smile: "This is also why the giant panda pet is obviously stronger than all other animals, and there is no protest in countries other than China, first, the professional league is forbidden to use giant pandas, and second, this thing is too few, one or two, it has no impact on the overall situation in the game, and the food and grass are expensive, the cost performance is very low, and the symbolism is greater." ”

"On the contrary, the Giant Panda Mount doesn't cost anything, it's just that drop rate, hehe."

The drop rate of the mount itself is touching, not to mention the king of the mounts, the iron-eating beast Rolling Panda.

Lu Zhe remembered that in November, in the fourth year after the game was launched, he only got a giant panda mount, and finally gave it to Qin Qingman. As soon as I got that meeting, the whole game was a sensation, news reports were flying all over the sky, and in those few days, Qin Qingman's popularity once surpassed Lin Yan.

Su Ying was about to speak, the kitchen door opened, and An Xiaowang said, "It's time to eat." ”

The hungry trio immediately jumped up and ran to the dining table.

……

Sunday.

7 a.m.

On a super-rail train from S City to G City.

Su Ying yawned, tilted her head to Lu Zhe's shoulder, and closed her eyes to recuperate.

In order to catch the train that arrived in G City at 10 o'clock in the morning, Lu Zhe and the three got up before 6 o'clock and came to the station in the northern suburbs early.

"Xiaoxiao, is your sponsor reliable?" Su Ying asked with her eyes closed.

Du Xiaoxiao sat opposite them, with a small short table in between, she opened her notebook, and was watching Yue Siyao's new drama.

"It should be no problem, I checked it on the Internet, it is a regular beverage manufacturer, has invested in two clubs, and often sponsors some player guilds."

"But, 3 million, isn't it a bit much?" Su Ying, another big boss of the studio, expressed her doubts.

"Hmm...... Maybe people see our potential? Du Xiaoxiao said in an uncertain tone.

Just a few days ago, Du Xiaoxiao received a phone call that a carbonated beverage manufacturer named "Bingfeng" in G City wanted to talk to Yingxiao Studio about cooperation and sponsorship of 3 million per year.

The guild's uniform can be freely designed by the president, of course, it is not difficult to print a logo, but this kind of uniform clothing does not require members to wear it all the time, and it is generally only required during the guild's unified activities.

For example, siege and defense of cities, such as ruins, or field team battles.

3 million just makes this request, which seems to be quite a deal.

Du Xiaoxiao has not talked about similar deals, and she does not have a clear and systematic understanding of the market price of this kind of game sponsorship.

However, Lu Zhe knew very well that for a small guild like Yingxiao, this price was simply a gift of money.

A small guild formed by ordinary players, if you can get sponsorship, it is a victory, even if you don't have money, it's better to bring a few boxes of drinks than nothing.

Of course, Du Xiaoxiao will not be so unproductive, but the price of 3 million also makes her unable to sit still, although she took nearly one million funds from her mother, but now the studio has dozens of people, and these money can't last long.

Lu Zhe has reservations about this matter.

But the other party is indeed a very formal company, and its investment in games also has a certain history, and its reputation has always been good.

With this kind of doubt and surprise, Du Xiaoxiao proposed to use a Sunday to go to G City to discuss the sponsorship in person, and Su Ying and Lu Zhe could also follow and make a trip.

G city is 1,200 kilometers away from S city in a straight line, and today's super rail train can reach it in 3 hours, and it is easy to go back and forth in one day.

Su Ying readily agreed, but of course Lu Zhe had no opinion, and he didn't want them to play games at home every day.

It was still very hot in the city of G in September, and at 10 o'clock in the morning, the ground outside the station was already scorched by the sun.

"Hurry up, it's so hot here, it's hotter than at home."

Su Ying, who was wearing a pair of white casual shorts, couldn't stand the heat wave on her calves, urging Du Xiaoxiao to hurry forward.

The three of them took a car and hurried to their destination.

The factory area of Bingfeng Beverage Factory is located on the outskirts of City G, but the place agreed between the other party and Du Xiaoxiao is an office in the city.

In front of a luxurious commercial building, Du Xiaoxiao checked the address sent by the other party in the WeChat on her mobile phone and confirmed that it was this place.

"You guys can go shopping casually, I'll call Susu when I'm ready." Du Xiaoxiao said before leaving.

"Don't you really need us with you?" Su Ying obviously didn't ask her this question for the first time.

"No need...... I can. Du Xiaoxiao was a little hesitant, but finally made up her mind.

Because this sponsorship is too weird, Lu Zhe is still a little worried about whether the other party will have any traps, if Du Xiaoxiao invites him to go with Su Ying, he doesn't plan to stay out of the matter, but since the boss is ready to go to the meeting alone, Lu Zhe doesn't force it.

Du Xiaoxiao's family has been in business for several generations, and their origins are not small, so they should not be so easily fooled, not to mention that Bingfeng's company is not a small workshop, so there is no reason to deliberately come to a game studio that has just been established for a long time.

Seeing Du Xiaoxiao walk into the revolving door of the building, Lu Zhe turned back to Su Ying and said, "Where are we going?" ”

"Let's find a café and sit for a while."

Su Ying was quite interested before she came, thinking about coming back to G City for the first time, and preparing to go to a few famous scenic spots, she spent a lot of time doing a strategy last night, so that she almost couldn't get up in the morning, she was dazed, and she squinted on the train to get better.

However, the original plan was all frightened away by the hot weather, and Su Ying no longer had any fun, just wanted to find an air-conditioned place and hide for half a day.

Because the time was more embarrassing, Du Xiaoxiao asked them to solve lunch by themselves, no need to wait for her to come along, Lu Zhe knew that if he really talked about this sponsorship, it would take more than half a day just to sign the contract or something, so he planned to lead Su Ying to find a place to hide until lunchtime.

However, after crossing the road, just two steps away, Su Ying took his hand and pointed to a façade in front of him.

"Hey, there's an Internet café."

Lu Zhe looked up and saw that the exaggerated signboard read the words "Yoyo Internet Cafe".

"Aren't you going to a café?" Lu Zhe laughed.

"That's right, an Internet café is also a café." Su Ying's strong words.

Lu Zhe was helpless, he thought that he came out just to not play the game, but he still couldn't hide.

Su Ying doesn't actually have the intention of playing games, but she rarely goes in and out of places like Internet cafes, and she feels very fresh when she has been there a few times occasionally, especially the last time she stayed overnight with Lu Zhe in an Internet café, she misses it very much, so she wants to go again.

The environment of the Yoyo Internet café is indeed much better than the Internet café where the two went last time, it seems that it has not been opened for a long time, there are not many people at the front desk, and when you look inside, you can vaguely see some sparsely distributed game cabins.

"Welcome."

Two smiling young ladies at the front desk stood up dignified to greet the two customers.

"Do you have private rooms? Couple's cabin? ”

"Yes, sir."

Lu Zhe and Su Ying took out their ID cards to register, looked up at the price list on the wall, and were immediately startled, the private room couple cabin cost 15 yuan an hour.

That's a heist for most gamers.

Nowadays, entertainment consumption is very expensive, in G City, where the average rent is only 700 yuan per month and a good fast food is only 3~5 yuan, watching a formal movie costs about 400 yuan, and a concert ticket is likely to cover several months' rent.

Because of the greatly increased productivity, the government has the ability to provide food and clothing for the minimum wage residents, but it has not been able to provide any security in other areas.

In fact, the gap between the rich and the poor in this era is far more exaggerated than in any other period in history, the class is solidified, and the people at the bottom do not starve to death, but there is no hope in sight.

This is true all over the world.

Poor as in some parts of Africa, they no longer have to worry about food, and even many people can afford to buy game pods.

Because of this, the role of games has become more and more prominent, as a good medicine to paralyze the public, the status of games has never reached such a height in the entire history of mankind, carrying an important role in economic employment and social stability.

As the famous saying goes: In the life of a fool, soap operas are enough.

In this day and age, games have the same purpose.

Many sociologists have suggested that this model will eventually lead humanity to destruction, but there is no way out of it.

It is in this social context that the status of professional players has skyrocketed.

Even Lu Zhe, the world's first person in games, has been rated by the Ministry of Social and Economic Affairs of the People's Republic of China and the Global Professional League as a national treasure e-sports master and an outstanding contributor in the economic field.

Lu Zhe has always believed that this title is a deformed existence, and even has the meaning of a court eagle dog, which may indeed be admired at present, but it is likely to be scolded in later generations.

But no matter how tough he is, he is just a gamer, and he is still the biggest vested interest, and many times, he has no choice at all.

Gaming is probably the only cheap entertainment in this era.

The price of an ordinary Internet café is only 1 yuan an hour, and no matter how luxurious a private room is, it is only four or five yuan an hour, but the 15 yuan an hour here really surprised Lu Zhedu, before entering the faith, he was also a frequent visitor to all kinds of Internet cafes, but he had never seen this kind of price.

But with his current income, he won't be able to afford it.

Seeing that Su Ying was already planning to back down because of this price, in order to prevent his wife from going out to bask in the sun again, Lu Zhe decisively paid the money.

"It's too expensive." Su Ying complained in a low voice.

A few dozen yuan is a drop in the bucket for both her and Lu Zhe, but this kind of price that is obviously a bit of a rip-off, Su Ying still expressed her dissatisfaction.

"It's okay, anyway, it won't be long anyway, I'll go to eat in a while, and when I'm out of the house, I have to spend money." Lu Zhe said with a smile.

Entering the inside of the Internet café, the cool and fresh air blew in her face, and Su Ying no longer complained about the high price.

When he came to the private room and saw the luxurious and exaggerated couple cabin, Lu Zhe was dumbfounded and almost said that it was worth the money.

Fruits, wine, snacks, snacks.

Cinema-quality screens.

A seat large enough to lie down and sleep.

Separate toilet.

There's even a shower function!

What the hell are you trying to do?!
