Chapter 43: A New Look for the Shop
After dark, Lei Dong sent the Green Dragon and White Tiger back to PokΓ©mon Land, and then closed the store. He's going to study the storefront expansion card.
"System, let's introduce this storefront expansion card. β
"Okay, host. The Storefront Expansion Card can expand the size of a small store by 3 times and give the host a chance to re-select the decoration style. β
"Triple times, wouldn't that be the only way to buy the vacant land outside?"
Lei Dong secretly calculated that the open space required for this 3 times expansion is not small.
"The host misunderstood, the area mentioned in this system is only the area inside the small store, and it is transformed through the space circle, and the appearance will not change. β
"Oh, is it like the ring in that battle space? By the way, will my backyard be remodeled?"
"Host, this is a storefront expansion card, please pay attention to the word storefront. β
"If you can't say it, what else do you pay attention to? Forget it, I don't have to sleep now anyway, and this accommodation is okay. Come on, come on, what decoration style can you choose?"
"Host, please look. β
A virtual screen appeared in front of Lei Dong, with a variety of model stores on it, including the exterior and interior decoration of the store.
"Well, this ancient Chinese style is good, nostalgic enough. This European style is also okay. β
Lei Dong picked for almost half an hour, and finally decided to change the appearance of the shop to the style of ancient Chinese pavilions, and the interior was decorated in the style of modern science and technology.
"The storefront expansion card is in use, please temporarily withdraw from the small store, and the renovation time is estimated to be one hour. β
After hearing the system's prompt tone, Lei Dong went to the backyard, and he just took advantage of this time to use the Ring of Empty Transmission to chat with Cecilia, which can be said to be the otherworldly version of the phone porridge.
The two chatted for more than an hour, and Elise couldn't stop if she suddenly wanted to find Cecilia. After chatting, Lei Dong also returned to the shop.
"Wow, this is so wide, now those people don't have to shoot at the door. β
Lei Dong walked around the small shop that had just been renovated, especially after taking a closer look at the extra area.
In addition to increasing the area, several new areas have been added to the renovation.
The first is the eating area, where those who come for snacks and drinks can sit and chat.
The eating area is also divided into two sections, one is a four-seater with more than a dozen small tables, and the other is a multi-seater with three large oval tables.
The second new addition is the summoning area, which currently only has PokΓ©mon lottery machines and identification machines.
The third new area is the Equipment Zone, which contains an Equipment Showcase. However, since the weapon lottery machine is basically only used by Rex's Chamber of Commerce, Lei Dong doesn't care much about this area now.
Another change in the small shop is that the counter has been changed to a boss's room, which is the kind of small room where you can see the outside but can't see the inside from the outside.
Lei Dong is still very satisfied with this small room, this is simply a chairman's office, sofas, massage chairs, wine cabinets, coffee tables and other things.
In addition, there are a lot more infrastructure such as queuing chairs in the small store, and the lottery machines have also been rearranged according to the requirements of Lei Dong.
Lei Dong also deliberately walked out of the small store to take a look at the renovated appearance, which was full of strong cultural atmosphere.
It can be said that this renovation is a comprehensive upgrade of the small store.
"Host, please confirm the transformation and expansion of the receiving shop. β
"Do you want to confirm it? It's a bit of a professional system. Okay, confirm receipt. β
"The host confirms the acceptance, and the transformation and expansion of the small store is completed. The points redemption mall opens. β
"Huh, what is the Points Exchange Mall?"
Lei Dong was still very curious when he heard that there was suddenly another point exchange mall.
"Hosts can redeem points for what they want in the Points Redemption Mall. β
"Where do these points come from? Also, what can I exchange for in this mall?"
"The host will get 10 points for every 1 spirit crystal used in the shop. As for the items to be exchanged, please retrieve them by the host, theoretically, as long as the host has enough points, all things can be exchanged. β
"So how many points do I have now?"
"Host, you just opened the points exchange mall, how can you have points?"
"Isn't it? I didn't even count the previous ones? By the way, I still owe little Anne a mattress, so I searched for a mattress. β
Lei Dong typed "mattress" on the search panel of the points exchange mall.
The Marketplace panel will then display:
Spring latex mattress, 1 credit;
Memory Foam Simmons, 1 point;
waterbed, 2 points;
Massage table, 2 credits.
"Is that all there is to it?"
Lei Dong felt that this option seemed to be a bit small.
"The point redemption mall can only redeem items worth more than 1 point. β
"Is that so? So which one is better to choose for little Annie? Or change them all, let her choose by herself, anyway, it only adds up to 6 points. β
Lei Dong thought about it, if you go to draw a PokΓ©mon, you will have 10 points, so why bother with these 6 points here.
Next, he searched for other things, and he found that ordinary daily necessities can basically be exchanged for single-digit points, but the points required for the exchange of those high-tech weapons and magic items are ridiculously high.
For example, his AK47 can only be exchanged for 100,000 points in the points exchange mall.
In this regard, the system's explanation is that the points exchange mall appeared to facilitate Lei Dong's life, not his invincible shortcut.
Lei Dong scoffed at this statement, it wasn't that he wanted him to go to the lottery.
After studying the points exchange mall, Lei Dong lay comfortably on the sofa in the boss's room.
"Alright, let's start drawing those two lottery machines. β
Nine cards with the same back appeared in front of Lei Dong in the form of a nine-square grid.
"Ask the host to draw two of these nine cards. β
"Yes, system, you've learned to be lazy. Shouldn't you smoke it once and refresh it?"
Lei Dong complained as he reached out and drew out the two cards in the upper right and lower left corners.
"It's a lottery, what is this? I think I've seen it somewhere. β
Thunderbolt flipped over the first card, and on it was an inverted pyramid with an eye.
"I'll go. Isn't this from Yu-Gi-Oh?"
"Congratulations to the host for drawing the Yu-Gi-Oh Monster Card Lottery Machine. The lottery machine has been placed in the store. β
"Is there one too? What about this one?"
Lei Dong then turned over the second card, which was a set of kitchen utensils.
"What is this?"
"Congratulations to the host for drawing the food lottery machine, which has been placed in the store. β
"Food? Wow Ka Ka, is there such a lottery machine? Now I finally don't have to eat those unpalatable things. β
Lei Dong is so happy, this is a long drought for him. He immediately opened the door of the boss's room and went to the small shop to look for the food lottery machine.
