Surviving on the highway, I have a best friend who was reborn.

Chapter 54 Popularity Value of the General Store

Looking at the wooden treasure chest in front of him, Yuanqiao didn't mind, recalling the bad luck aura that appeared today and the God of Wealth's favor that only yielded 4 gold coins.

Yuanqiao felt incredibly fortunate that the treasure chest appeared so quickly, and wondered if the game developers couldn't bear to see her suffer.

The loot was minimal: 2 pieces of glass, 4 pieces of wood, 1 piece of iron, and 1 energy cell.

I quickly put it away and got back into the car.

Rainwater flowed down the edge of the protective canopy, no longer making the previous rapid pattering sound; the rain began to subside, and the corrosion was much less severe.

It is said that the amount of rain is random and unpredictable, and the occasional rain stop is the most relaxing time for players.

As it was getting dark, Yuanqiao, who was browsing the chat room messages, was lost in thought. She hadn't used her bad luck aura yet.

But the only one who offended her was that girl named Hua Xinyan. It seems that she was in a dungeon, and the aura couldn't be given to her.

"I don't have any conflicts with other people, so let it go. It's just a waste. I don't care if it's not a lucky charm."

He muttered to himself.

They didn't encounter any more supply chests until dark. Yuanqiao now had a lot more supplies, and after dinner, he spent his time sorting and organizing them.

The most precious items were stuffed into the Star Core Pendant's space, a 50-square-meter space specifically for storing special props and special energy items.

The 100-square-meter space of the New Yuan Bridge is designed to resemble a ring worn on the middle finger of the right hand. This large space is used to store a large quantity of ordinary supplies.

Considering that it would be more convenient to use items directly from the system inventory using mental energy in special circumstances, Yuanqiao allocated a small portion of the items to his inventory and Star Core Pendant.

If we don't put all the space buttons in, what if some dungeon in the future bans the use of the system inventory and space buttons like the first one did?

After parking the vehicle on the roadside, Yuanqiao used two more vehicle canopies. She didn't have much anti-corrosion material either, so she opened the free market.

Her grocery store is currently the most searched store, and when you click into the store, all you see are "sold out".

"what?"

Yuanqiao noticed a small note following the number one most popular shop.

"Once a personal shop's popularity value exceeds 50, a currency channel will be opened, allowing players to purchase items with real money."

Yuanqiao is delighted; once the currency channel is opened, he will have a stable source of gold coin income!

Currently, the popularity value is only 260,000, but this is because many people need Grade A protective suits, and only her general store has them. People often search to check the popularity value of the suits.

We need to capitalize on this wave of popularity.

Looking at the production table, 150 Class A protective suits have been completed and will be directly put on the shelves of the general store.

【A级防护服（余150）交易：元晶×20或元晶×10、能量电池×27或元晶×5、能量电池×80或布×130、纤维100或橡胶×40、铁块×80、玻璃×40】

Open the chat lobby and send three notifications in a row.

[Yuanqiao: Yuanqiao General Store has been updated, with 150 Grade A protective suits now available. First come, first served.]

[Yuanqiao: Yuanqiao General Store has been updated. Currently, the materials can only produce 150 items. More will be available after everyone has finished trading!]

[Yuanqiao: Click on my profile picture to enter the shop and purchase top-quality anti-corrosion Grade A protective suits! As long as the materials are available, we will continue to list them. Please support us!]

[Fang Jingchen: Oh my god! It's finally available!]

[Xiang Botao: What happened?! The store manager just posted the listing information!] [Liu Wei: This is so popular, oh my god, luckily I managed to buy two before.]

The item sold out in less than two minutes after being listed, and the store's popularity score jumped by 5. As more and more people clicked into the general store, the popularity continued to rise.

After the 150 Class A protective suits were traded, there were 1465 Yuan Crystals, as well as some other materials.

Yuanqiao pondered, "With protective suits being so popular, I should be able to gather enough materials to upgrade to level 5 by tomorrow."

Is it that fast? But thinking back, when she was still driving a Tier 3 vehicle, I saw a pro named Li Qingshan driving a Tier 5 vehicle.

They also set up a production station to make 300 protective suits and 50 primary condensers, which would take about 2 hours to complete.

Since I had nothing to do in the evening, I made 10 items, put them on the market, and added the raw materials I acquired through trading to the crafting table.

Right now, all I can think about is increasing the store's popularity and accumulating Yuan Crystals. By circulating resources, I'll eventually earn 6000 Yuan Crystals.

Yuanqiao didn't just exchange Yuan Crystals; he also prepared all the missing materials. It took him 5 hours to store all the materials for upgrading to level 5, except for Yuan Crystals, in the system warehouse and leave them unused. He used the remaining materials to make condensers and air conditioners for cyclical trading.

As soon as the materials arrived, they started making and selling them again, and the shop was doing very well. Tonight, the chat room was mostly filled with discussions about buying the A-grade protective suits from Yuanqiao General Store.

The store's popularity score is 31, which is 19 short.

It was already around 2 a.m. Yuanqiao had calmed down from the initial excitement. After setting the production table, he stopped producing batches and put them on the shelves one at a time. He then went to the bathroom and took a hot bath.

"What a tiring day."

Although she knew that soaking in a petal bath was not very effective, Yuanqiao still spent 20 silver coins to buy a bag of fresh rose petals and put them in the bathtub.

The service station has been upgraded; the bathtub backrest now has a massage function. I set it to level two, soaked in the hot water, and closed my eyes.

Yuanqiao thoroughly enjoyed himself.

There are 2672 gold coins, 362 silver coins, and 187 copper coins remaining.

I need to find some time to plan how to use the gold coins effectively, improve myself, and determine the future direction of the general store.

While Class A protective suits can be used in many situations, the greatest demand is likely during acid rain disasters. Once this highway disaster is over, the popularity of grocery stores will definitely decrease significantly.

Yuanqiao carefully studied the rules for player shops in the trading market. After opening the currency channel, the shop's popularity should be maintained at around 1 per month. If there are no sales for a long time or the popularity value is low, the currency channel will be closed the following month.

You can also purchase goods from players who have blueprints and list them in your shop.

She thought about many things, but the massage was so comfortable that she fell asleep in the bathtub. It was only when the blue robot came to remind her that it was already 3 a.m.

Back in the bedroom, I rolled around on the big bed a couple of times, marveling at how, if it weren't for the game, I could never afford such a wonderfully magical and high-tech house in real life.

Although it was dangerous and tiring, the material conditions were indeed much better than before.

I wonder which survival game my parents are playing in, and whether they're living a better life than I am.

(A couple surviving on a deserted island had just upgraded their house to a level 9 fortress when they sneezed simultaneously. They looked at each other, puzzled. Given their current physical condition, it was almost impossible for them to get sick. They then took out a diagnostic device to scan their entire bodies.)
January 13th, Saturday (Road Calendar)
Yuanqiao, who hadn't had enough sleep from staying up all night, woke up at 6 a.m. and groggily used his talent skill.

[Talent skill successfully used, gain Doom Aura x1]

Why is it another bad luck aura?!
Please vote for me! Please give me monthly tickets! Please leave comments and rate me with stars!
Yuanqiao: I'll give you the God of Wealth's Blessing skill too!
Qiao Nanxi: I would like to invite all my supportive readers to visit the manor. The beauty-enhancing fruit is almost ready to bear fruit.
