Chapter 116: The Gourmet Store Appears

Seeing Li Yanqi sit upright in front of the light curtain, and then take a deep breath as she prepared to use all the remaining crystal cores in her backpack grid to upgrade, the audience also began to look forward to it.

[Yan Qi is so cute, it's not easy for them to upgrade their backpacks now]

[Looking forward to new features]

[Blind guessing will add a few grids]

[The first upgrade only uses 10,000 crystal cores, so it shouldn't What extra functions will be added?]

[...]

Li Yanqi had the same idea as the audience, expansion was certain, and she didn't pay attention to other functions in her previous life.

She only remembers that one of Gan Lin's game designers called her on the phone, saying that she was too reckless, that the designs that he had worked so hard on for such a long time would never be seen by the public, and that his talent was being buried.

But now, she finally, This backpack can be upgraded once.

In Gan Lin's game design department, a trembling hand held a ceramic cup that carefully placed it on the coaster. Lin Li looked excitedly at Li Yanqi who was preparing to upgrade her backpack in the game.

Coming Soon! His Creativity!

"Lin Li, you don't have to worry about it now. This Li Yanqi is quite powerful; she discovered how to use the backpack so early on." The colleague Yu Meng He who was sitting next to him joked as he turned the pen in his hand.

He was also curious about what plan Lin Li had designed for the backpack. He heard that Lin Li's plan was rejected by the minister thirteen times before it barely passed.

"I... I'm still a little worried," Lin Li replied, staring at the screen.

He worried a lot. He worried that the characters in the play would be disappointed with his ideas and creativity because the backpack with ten grids had been used in and out of the play for N times.

He is also concerned that the audience's expectations may be disappointed, since there is no such thing as summoning a dragon in his design.

He was even more worried that the minister would no longer give him a chance, and that he would be replaced by young graduates who had come from behind.

In short, Lin Li was just worried.

Li Yanqi watched as the progress bar on the light curtain panel gradually reached 99%. She clicked again without hesitation, and the progress bar reached 100%.

The backpack expanded from 10 slots to 100.

Li Yanqi was quite pleasantly surprised at this point; at least it was much better than what she had imagined to be 20 grids.

The panel is still the same size as before, and the progress bar has changed back to 0%.

At the same time, Li Yanqi also notices that there is a lighted label in the leftmost column of the label categories, similar to how it looks when you're playing a game.

"Gourmet... store?"

Li Yanqi was stunned. What did a gourmet store mean?

When she clicked in curiously, she found that there were hundreds of categories of dishes in this so-called gourmet store. Although there were no pictures of those dishes, the text descriptions alone made her dizzy.

Sweet and sour pork ribs, salt and pepper pork ribs, fried crab with onion and ginger, spicy shrimp, osmanthus lotus root, hand-caught lamb chops...

Li Yanqi scrolled down, and each dish had a price marked under it, for example, a boiled pork slice was priced at 30. However, she didn't know what the 30 was based on.

Is it a crystal nucleus?

If she uses crystal nuclei or other items as currency, can she buy food with it?

How is this gourmet store used?

So she found the cheapest dish and decided to try it with her remaining two hundred crystal nuclei.

Red bean crystal cake, it's up to you!

Li Yanqi clicked on the column for the red bean crystal cake, and a graphical introduction immediately expanded and appeared before her.

Red Bean Crystal Cake:

Ingredients: Red Beans, White Sugar, Glutinous Rice Flour.

Efficacy: It can enhance physical strength and make people feel happy.

Price: 12

"...What's the situation? What does it mean to make people feel happy? Does it mean that sweets can make people happy?"

Li Yanqi muttered, and she finally saw the place she could click at the bottom:

Do you want to buy it?

Li Yanqi clicked "Yes" without hesitation.

Then a miraculous scene occurred; a porcelain-white plate suddenly appeared in front of the light curtain, and six perfectly stacked crystal cakes sat neatly within it!

Li Yanqi subconsciously reached out and took it down, and the plate of crystal cake was placed on the table beside her.

Though it was dark now, Li Yanqi could still clearly see the porcelain-white plate on the table through the light outside, and she took a piece of crystal cake and put it in her mouth.

It's very delicious; it's so sweet!

At this moment, she finally understood why the game designer had called and scolded her for wasting money.

Because in her previous life, she was so hungry that she was dizzy every day in the play, and all the crystal nuclei she managed to save were replaced by the cheapest food: noodle soup and dry biscuits...

But now, she only needs 12 How many crystal nuclei can be exchanged for a plate of such delicious red bean crystal cake?!

Why wasn't it discovered sooner? Li Yanqi wept silently in her heart.

But in front of the audience, she can only show the miraculous expression of this panel.

Li Yanqi couldn't help but wave her hand to open the panel again. She didn't notice just now that there were still a few gray labels on the left that hadn't been lit up. It seemed that new functions would only appear after the next upgrade.

In the backpack, there were only a few weapons they had used during the day and three grids of crystal nuclei. Li Yanqi tried to combine two 99-piece crystal nuclei into one grid, and it turned out to be 198 pieces. So she simply dragged all the remaining crystal nuclei into the same grid.

Can 233 pieces fit into one grid?

How many things can she fit into one grid now?

Since the number of crystal nuclei was too small and there was nothing else to try, Li Yanqi finally had to give up on trying. She had to think about how to tell Fu Ying and Gu Yao about this.

[Thousands and thousands of times, I never thought it would be a gourmet store]

[I also want a gourmet store, isn't it too friendly for people who can't cook?]

[Satisfied, satisfied, the backpack has been expanded, and there is food to eat]

[No need to worry about being hungry anymore].

[It's so cool, the famine belongs to others, and the food belongs to beauties! Hahaha].

[...]

Gu Yao is still sitting on the small bench in the bathroom at this moment, pouring the water from everyone's bath into a pile of big buckets, small buckets, big basins, and small basins.

Her abilities are limited, and the water flow has decreased; it's getting smaller and smaller, and it seems that everyone will have to make do with what they have today.

Finally, when there were only a few drops of water left, Gu Yao also put away her abilities and decided to go back to the room to take a look at Li Yanqi's situation.

The three of them lived in the same room. When Fu Ying and Gu Yao came in, Li Yanqi stuffed two pieces of crystal red bean cake into their mouths.

"Where did this snack come from? Why is it so delicious?"

Fu Ying couldn't help wondering if she had eaten it for too long for a quick snack. Why had she never eaten such a delicious snack before?

Gu Yao, who had completely dried up her powers, felt even more strongly. She even felt that her powers were not as dry as before.
