Games Survive Without Boundaries

Games Survive Without Boundaries
Inflation 1


Time does not wait.


Su Han moved quickly on foot, planning to look for the nearest supermarket, and then spent all his money - after 9 o'clock, the money would not have the purchasing power it had now!


Su Han did not know if the system was well designed. Within a two-minute walk, he saw department stores and supermarkets 24 hours away.


Su Han hurriedly entered, hoping to buy some supplies with the 1000 bits he exchanged.


While walking to the supermarket shelf, he discovered that in his current state, the money was still very valuable. A bottle of mineral water 2 shells, soap 5 shells, 1000 shells can buy many items.


Su Han felt a little regretful, if only exchanging more currencies. But soon, he regained his composure — is not a god, how can everything be resolved.


After taking a walk, Su Han was surprised to find that not only soap, but also towels, toothpaste, facial cleansers, bath gels, and even air fresheners, perfumes, and toothbrushes can improve hygiene. It's just that everything is consumables and will disappear when it runs out.


As for food, chocolate, various sweets, biscuits, cakes, and instant noodles can also increase satiety.


Since the portable warehouse grille could only hold 100 pieces of the same item, Su Han took out 90 pieces of soap and 90 bottles of mineral water without a second thought, then went to the cashier to check out.


There were not many people in line, and now it was Su Han's turn.


450 Soaps, 180 grains of mineral water, a total of 630 grains. It was just that the cashier would inevitably have a different color on his face - why did Su Han stockpile so much soap and mineral water? Is this woman crazy?


Su Han did not explain, he just paid the bill and left.


However, as soon as he walked to the entrance of the supermarket, nearly thirty people rushed to the supermarket.


Su Han's mind suddenly came up with a thought, "A large number of players approached the supermarket."


After these people left, he found a hidden place to put soap and mineral water in a portable warehouse.


“One step late, every step late.” Su Han whispered, “If I am one step late at the beginning, there will be a large selection of items after entering the mall. If I waste a lot of time at the mall, I have to follow the game after entering the game. People scramble, and even have to wait in long lines to waste time on check out. "


Worse, some players may not be able to take stock. Su Han vividly remembered that he had just bought 90 pieces of soap and was about to empty the shelves, and he did not know if there were any stock in the supermarket for selfies.


Next to her was a young girl in glasses who took 100 packs of instant noodles without blinking her eyes.


Shaking his head, Su Han rushed to the next stop - the medicine shop.


As soon as he entered the door, he saw the salesgirl stunned to see a dozen customers sweeping through the goods. Su Han felt tense and quickly joined the sweepers army.


The end result is as follows: 5 medical bandages, 5 boxes of anti-inflammatory drugs, a total of 170 shells.


Anti-inflammatory drugs: After use, the stamina value of +20, and the status of "infection" disappears.


It was not that it was too late, the item was robbed, and Su Han was completely embarrassed. Moreover, he needed funds to purchase other items, so he could not spend them all.


Unfortunately, he glanced at the shelf, and Su Han reluctantly left. Before leaving, he could still hear the muttering of the NPC vending girl, "If it wasn't for the money, I really thought they were here to rob ..."


Su Han glanced at the time and found that it was 8:38, but the shop he was looking at did not know where it was. Nothing, he could only use stupid methods, finding one shop after another.


At 8:57, after 20 minutes of searching, he finally found his destination - the grocery store!


A slingshot contained 30 seashells, one bag contained 2 steel ball skins, and one bag contained 100 pieces.


Su Han bought two catapults, and all the other money bought steel balls. In an instant, he only spent 200 shells remaining.


“Why do you want so many steel balls?” The owner of the grocery store was very confused.


Su Han smiled and said casually, "Hunt."


The shopkeeper stopped talking. He knows that some customers like to hunt birds with catapults. He simply did not expect that the young girl in front of him, who looked thin and weak, actually had this hobby.


“I go.” Su Han knew that the NPCs in the holographic online game had extremely high IQs, and their mindset and behavior were the same as real people, so he greeted her gently.


He had just walked out of the grocery store, and the mechanical sound of the system was heard


"At 9 o'clock, the game officially begins. On the first day, the price level rose 50%."


As soon as he finished speaking, Su Han discovered there was something more in the portable warehouse. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a bottle of milk and a piece of brown bread.


Milk: 250ml, fullness +15 after use.


Chocolate bread: fullness +15 after use.


Sweeping the attributes of the transparent panel for satiety, the color was still dark green, and he did not need to eat to add energy, so he let the milk and brown bread be in a portable warehouse.


Swinging slowly to the park opposite the hypermarket, sitting on a bench, Su Han had time to organize his thoughts.


The so-called hyperinflation is actually a huge drop in the purchasing power of money. The money that could be used to buy a pig gradually shrank, and became only half a pig. Then he could only buy one chicken, then he could only buy chicken feet, and eventually everything became paper waste.


So, the faster Su Han spent money, the more items he could buy.


After finally spending all the money before inflation, he did not yet know what to do next.


Su Han was stunned, and remembered something, "When I came out of the supermarket, the player I met should be the player. Just now that I got word to rush to the supermarket, it should be an NPC. But why do I look at them and see the same message? ? "


For example, at this time, a man in his 30s rushed to the supermarket. He looked at the other party and saw.


"Satisfaction: 85%, cleanliness: 70%, physical strength 90%. Status: good."


There was a five or six year old girl beside him, who was being hugged by his parents. Looking at others he saw was, "Satisfaction: 80%, hygiene: 85%, stamina 70%. Status: normal, fever."


After thinking for a moment, he got an idea.


At a noodle restaurant where a hiring notice was posted, the owner thought, "Why did prices suddenly soar? How will I live today?"


“Halo, I'm here to apply for a waitress.” While speaking, Su Han walked into the noodle restaurant and raised the corner of his mouth to reveal small dimples on both sides.


The owner's face showed doubt. The girl in front of me has short hair and a pretty face that looks neat……


"His salary is 3,000 bei, and his salary won't go up for now."


When prices are soaring, it seems unreasonable not to raise salaries. But store businesses are relatively average, and it is true they cannot afford to pay employees salaries that are too high.


“Already included three meals, and the salary of 3000 shells is unacceptable.” After thinking about it, Su Han asked, “Can salary be paid every day?”


"Success!" The female boss was also a cheerful person, and she immediately agreed, "Daily salary of 100 clams and I will pay you every night after the store closes."


“OK, what should I do?” Su Han started rolling up his sleeves, preparing to work.


The owner said, "There's a chef in the kitchen who makes noodles. You just have to say hello to customers when they come, and no one can rest."


“OK,” Su Han replied.


Right after 10am, there was no one in the noodle restaurant, so Su Han stayed behind. When it came lunch time, there were more customers in the noodle shop.


But before Su Han stepped forward to greet, the customers shouted,


"A bowl of 15 mussels noodles? That was still 10 shells yesterday!"


"Take the money!"


"Why is it so expensive?"


The owner sighed and complained, "What can I do if the price jumps? Only the items in the store will go up in price."


God, don't eat! ”Someone immediately left angrily.


Others were ready to move on, and seemed to want to follow.


The female boss continued to complain, "Which stuff doesn't go up in price? Everywhere is the same."


These words were like a basin filled with cold water, and the customer suddenly lost his mind and ordered the cheapest bowl of noodles for lunch. Most of what they think about is bringing lunch tomorrow.


Su Han greeted him immediately.


After a while, the customer who said "I don't eat anymore" calmly returned.


Su Han just did not know and continued ordering and serving dishes.


At one o'clock in the afternoon, the customer left, and the noodle shop was gradually empty. Chefs specialize in cooking and making bowls of beef ramen noodles.


“Thank you.” After thanking her, Su Han started eating.


Beef ramen, satiated +25 after use, directly increase the fullness of Su Han to 100 after a meal.


“How do you want to be a waitress if you are young?” The owner was quite curious.


Su Han said seriously, "It's nice to be a waitress if you have enough food, shelter, and money to spend."


The owner felt from the heart that this girl was very humble. But he ended up hiring an unpaid employee too low, so he couldn't persuade them to leave. So the boss's wife earnestly cheers on the new employee, "Try to save money and life will get better."


“En.” Su Han replied with a smile, but thinking in his heart, you can't keep the money, you should spend it all when you get it.


Dinner time was busy, and it didn't stop until 7pm.


The female boss planned to close the door and go home. He pointed to the small bedroom less than five square meters on the side, and advised, "You sleep here."


Su Han looked at it carefully and found it was pretty good, at least he had a bed and a blanket.


Su Han felt that his living conditions were too bad. The female boss grinned and handed out 100 shells. "Yes, today's salary. If you feel hungry at night, you can go to the kitchen to cook noodles and eat without charging."


Su Han not only did not mind, but was also very happy, "Great."


The female boss paused for a moment, and said in her heart, this girl.


Little did they know that newly hired employees had free housing, they didn't have to spend money on food, and they still had a salary to refill every day, who consciously took a big advantage.


The author wanted to say something: This article is purely fictitious, and I refuse to study logic and principles.


Real time and game time are the same at 8-9. After 9 o'clock, the game time increases N times faster. So once the first event is over, players can resume lunch when they exit the game pod. (It was very happily decided)
