Building a skyscraper to survive, all the female colleagues in the company begged me to carry them.

Immediately afterwards, a beam of light descended from the sky.

The bell keeper appeared on the beach.

It was still wearing that spotless tailcoat, and the clock hands on its head were ticking away.

When it saw Huang Tang and Liu Lingqing, it was clearly taken aback.

"If I remember correctly," the bell-keeper's voice held a hint of uncertainty, "we only met recently, right?"

Huang Tang laughed: "Don't you want to do business with us?"

"I do want to..."

The bell keeper looked at Huang Tang, then at Liu Lingqing, and said, "I'm just surprised that you were able to defeat the BOSS and trigger the shop again in such a short time."

"Alright, tell me what you're planning to buy this time?"

Huang Tang took a step back, and now it was Liu Lingqing's turn to perform!

Liu Lingqing stepped forward, crossed her arms, and looked at the bell keeper with a smile.

"How much does the blueprint for an 18-story building cost?"

The clock hands spun twice, as if calculating.

"This is valuable," he said. "You probably can't afford it."

"I'm a long-time client of yours," Liu Lingqing said unmoved. "Think carefully when you quote a price, or you'll lose a major long-term client."

The clockmaker's second hand began to spin wildly.

After hesitating for a long time, it finally spoke: "50 survival coins per share."

"Too expensive." Liu Lingqing shook her head directly. "You only sell the blueprints for a 13-story building for 25 survival coins, why is an 18-story building twice as expensive?"

"I've already given you a rock-bottom price on the 13-story blueprints!" the clock keeper exclaimed anxiously. "You have to let me make a little profit, right? I have KPIs to meet too!"

"35 survival coins per set." Liu Lingqing held up three fingers. "I want three sets. Sell or not?"

The bell keeper hesitated.

Seeing that the time wasn't right, Liu Lingqing continued to increase the stakes: "In addition to these 3 sets, I also want to buy 10 sets of 13-layer blueprints and 30 sets of 8-layer blueprints."

The clock hands nearly flew off course.

"How much...?"

"Three units of 18-layer cake, ten units of 13-layer cake, thirty units of 8-layer cake!" Liu Lingqing said, emphasizing each word. "So I'm your big customer, understand?"

The bell keeper was seeing such an arrogant person for the first time and was a little suspicious.

"You...you have that many survival coins?"

"Don't worry about that."

Liu Lingqing smiled, "Let's discuss the price first. Let me tell you my quote."

「18层图纸35求生币一份，13层图纸20求生币一份，8层图纸3求生币一份。」

"Eight-layer blueprints and three survival coins?!" The bell-keeper jumped up. "My purchase price was more than that!"

"That's your business," Liu Lingqing said unmoved. "To sell or not?"

"Not for sale! Absolutely not for sale!"

The hands above the clockmaker's head spun wildly, as if expressing rage. "I have no profit margin left on the blueprints for the eight-story building. I can't lower the price any further. Everything else is at your quoted price!"

If it were someone else, they would definitely have accepted the loss and given up.

But who is Liu Lingqing?

She's determined to skin Zhong alive today!

Liu Lingqing: "I need 30 copies of the 8-layer blueprints, and you can lower the price by one survival coin. You do the math yourself, are you willing to do this 120 survival coin deal?"

The bell keeper fell silent.

It silently did some calculations in its mind.

It looked up at Liu Lingqing, then at Huang Tang.

"make a deal!"

Liu Lingqing smiled: "That's right. It's a pleasure working with you."

Huang Tang paid 425 survival coins.

There are 51 survival coins left.

If it weren't for the need to keep them for emergencies, Huang Tang would have loved to use them all to buy building blueprints!

During this period, buying just one more blueprint can earn you several times more money!

The bell-keeper was quite satisfied with the large volume of the transaction.

"You are the most business-savvy humans I have ever met," it said. "Looking forward to seeing you again."

Then it turned into a pillar of light and disappeared.

…………

Now that he had enough materials and the blueprints for an 18-story building, Huang Tang immediately returned to prepare to upgrade the house!

The women had already changed into their swimsuits.

The living room was a colorful mess.

Jiang Jing'an wore a black bikini, her long, wavy hair cascading over her shoulders, revealing her figure perfectly.

Jiang Gelan wore a conservative one-piece swimsuit, but her good figure still made her stand out.

Su Qing wore a red two-piece swimsuit, revealing a slender waist, and stood in front of the mirror, looking at herself from left to right.

Bai Tao was wrapped in a bath towel and refused to take it off no matter what.

Chae Rim wore a dark blue swimsuit with a sheer overcoat, making her skin appear and disappear.

Huang Tang glanced at it and almost got a nosebleed.

"Have you changed everything?" he asked, feigning composure.

"It's changed!"

The women answered in unison.

"Okay, let's upgrade the house first!"

Huang Tang opened the system panel and selected [Upgrade House].

"Boom!"

The building shook again.

A beam of golden light shot into the sky!

The women gasped and hugged each other.

Fourteenth floor, fifteenth floor, sixteenth floor... eighteenth floor!

The vibration stopped.

A server-wide announcement sounded:

[System Announcement: Congratulations to player "Huang Tang" for becoming the first to upgrade to an 18-story building!]

[As the first player to achieve this, you will be rewarded with 5 Silver Chests!]

[May other players keep up the good work, the flood never stops! The building never stops!]

The world chat channel exploded instantly.

[What?! An eighteen-story building?! Didn't Boss Huang Tang just move up thirteen stories two hours ago?!]

[Two increases in one day? That's incredible!]

[I bow to you, sir!]

[Huang Tang, how did you do that? Teach me...]

I really thought I was just a dog by the boss's side, doing nothing and just winning without lifting a finger.

[Bro, if Boss Huang Tang needs a dog, it's not your turn, woof woof woof...]

[Quiet down, when it comes to being a dog, nobody's more professional than me!]

……

Huang Tang uttered a great statement.

Shouldn't these people look at what they're saying?

Do dogs also have to compete to be number one?

They're a real handful.

While the players were chatting, Huang Tang dropped an even more explosive bombshell:

[From now on, we're selling building blueprints!]

【18层楼房图纸300求生币一份！13层楼房图纸150求生币一份！八层楼房图纸50求生币一份！】

The message went viral, causing even more chaos on the world chat channel.

[300 Survival Coins?! Are you robbing me, Huang Tang?!]

[Wasn't the 13-story blueprint just 100? How did it increase to 150?]

Eight floors of blueprints for 50? I couldn't afford that with my entire savings!

I suspect Huang Tang is using cheats. Investigate thoroughly!

[What are you so sour about, upstairs? If you're so capable, why don't you open one yourself!]

【No, don't you guys find it strange? How can someone be so lucky?】

[Maybe Huang Tang is an NPC in disguise, trying to scam us out of survival coins!]

[That makes sense! Maybe he's a traitor who's defected to the NPCs!]

……

Huang Tang couldn't help but laugh as he read the various outrageous speculations on the world channel.

These netizens have such creative minds; it would be a shame if they didn't write novels.

He sent another message:

[Huang Tang: Whether I'm cheating, an NPC, or a traitor who's sided with the NPCs, I have the building blueprints. So, tell me if you want to buy them or not.]

Limited quantity! First come, first served!

The style of the world channel immediately changed!
