He didn’t have much silver on him. Moreover, the illustrations were so exquisite, and this place so enchanting, what if they asked for silver coins?
The girl laughed:
"This is our collector’s edition, a set of books costs 88 yuan in total."
"We also have the standard edition, available for just 35 yuan."
With such beautiful illustrations, I definitely have to buy the collector’s edition!
But Geng felt a bit stiff.
—How much silver is 88 yuan?
He touched the silver in his pocket but didn’t dare to take it out, fearing the people of this magical land might discover his intrusion.
So he hesitantly asked:
"I... I don’t have any money yet. How can I earn money quickly?"
Huh?
Chen Xinyue and Gao Tiantian were a bit stunned.
This outfit must cost tens of thousands, and the sword and decorations are so exquisite... yet he has no money?
But thinking about it, a man his age cosplaying, his family might not support a big man having such a hobby, right?
As for having no money, it must be that all his money went into supporting his hobby, creating electricity out of love.
Just like how they spend quite a bit on web novels each month.
The two girls were students from Beijing, without much work experience. Gao Tiantian hesitated a mont.
"Hold on, let ask around, okay."
Saying that, she took out her phone.
"Little He, isn’t your new product in need of people for a live demonstration? Looking for those with rich imagination, right?"
"How much do you pay? Chen Xinyue and I are buying books here, and we saw a male cosplayer in urgent need of money."
Chu River didn’t hesitate at all:
"Sure, to test the new product, the salary is 500 yuan. This job is very suitable, definitely requires imagination. I’ll send you the address, have him co right over."
How convenient.
The address is the biggest Star Sea Flagship Store at the center of the plaza.
Gao Tiantian enthusiastically pointed with her hand:
"Uncle, do you see it? The biggest Star Sea Flagship Store in front has a job, just go and follow their instructions, you’ll get 500 yuan."
Though he didn’t know how much 500 yuan was, from the girl’s tone, it seed considerable.
Geng reluctantly glanced at the illustration one more ti and agreed without hesitation: "Alright, thank you, young lady, I’ll go right away."
But there were too many people around.
He looked around, then simply took a step back, leapt into the air, placed a foot on a side bulletin board,
and with a long-distance backflip, landed gracefully, displaying agility unfitting for his sturdy physique.
The crowd who inadvertently witnessed this scene: "〣(ºΔº)〣"
!!!
However, before they could react, Geng had already swiftly dashed into the Star Sea Flagship Store.
Chu River was idly watching in the hall.
As there was a new product livestream coming up, there weren’t any custors in the hall, only a few users who won from the livestream prize draw.
Geng’s appearance was too striking; as soon as he ca in, Chu River recognized him.
The little yellow-haired guy beside him hurriedly waved:
"Co on, the livestream is about to start, try it out first."
He promptly ushered him in front of a large screen.
His ssy yellow hair drew a couple of more glances from Geng at this helper.
The Little Yellow, unaware, skillfully applied a red button the size of a button to his temple.
Chu River, observing him, said:
"The new product has two functions."
"First, you can create a completely new world in your mind, even design the people in that setting."
"And the large screen on the wall ahead will display the scene you imagined in real ti, accurately mirroring your thoughts."
However, most people without ntal training find it hard to imagine so focusedly, so a brief adjustnt before the livestream is necessary.
Just as she finished speaking, the red button on Geng’s temple emitted a faint flash.
On the large screen before them, a vast ancient city quickly took shape—
[Jiangning City]
The written characters on display were even in traditional script.
The next mont, streets so real they seed like a firsthand experience depicted bustling crowds one after another... appeared.
Chu River observed closely; the colors of the ribbons on those passing by varied one by one.
The scene moved on, a Su’s Cloth Store flashed by, with a fair-skinned girl, eyes sparkling, at the entrance.
The temporary user even instinctively voiced:
"Miss!"
As the scene continued, inside an ancient building of the [New Gate Art Hall], a beautiful and poised lady proprietress asked:
"Why are you looking for , Yang?"
...
"Good!"
Chu River couldn’t help applauding.
"This imagination is excellent, perfectly suited for our product, give him the sample after!"
She then thought of another approach and asked the bewildered Geng who just opened his eyes:
"Can you write stories? You could try imagining a story in your mind, what you think of will appear on the screen as text."
Write a novel!
Geng rembered his master’s previous remarks on his writing skills, feeling a bit embarrassed:
"I lack experience and fear I won’t write well."
Chu River shook his head: "The Jiangning City, the young lady, and Yang you just crafted were excellent, your imagination far surpasses any experience, give it a shot!"
"Write the story you want to tell."
Geng nodded and closed his eyes again.
When he reopened them, the screen displayed lines of text.
With a classical style, although not very elegant and sowhat immature in composition, it was unique.
Even the 2000-word opening constructed in just 5 minutes sparked a desire to continue reading.
Chu River, watching him, earnestly said:
"I believe you have great potential for storytelling, how about this, I heard from Tian Tian that you’re short on money, right? Why not work here as a temporary staff for a month, specializing in guiding custors to use the imagination constructor?"
"We can provide room and board, you can also use this opportunity to consider your future path, like writing novels? Or creating videos."
Geng looked at the stories he wrote effortlessly, without brush or ink, feeling truly delighted.
—Life in this mystical realm is indeed wonderful.
