I'm just an internet cafe owner

"You want more?"

"Not yet, but it will definitely be available in a while?"

Liu Yuan estimated the speed at which the machine could be put into use. Based on the current speed, and considering that Fujimaru Kaori would be able to obtain the King's Treasure Vault in a few days, it would really be possible to make any game they wanted in the future.

It wouldn't be a bad idea to release a few Paradox Interactive games that are almost all-ages.

"Really?"

"I'm not lying."

After all, he's actually quite looking forward to these kinds of games, but whether to prioritize Civilization, Hearts of Iron, or Stellaris is a question he needs to consider. Perhaps he could set a small goal first: to release Stellaris within a year and give it a try?

In addition to that, he has another big goal: to develop all kinds of online games within three years. However, speaking of developing all kinds of online games...

However, there are relatively few big spenders in internet cafes right now. It would be most appropriate to develop online games when there are more customers, such as 100,000 or even 200,000.

Just like in League of Legends now, there are many people playing it, but few people are matched with it. Most people play it offline and choose the heroes they like to improve their skills.

So far, it seems that only two players have the highest mastery level for any hero: Kirito and Miko Yotsuya. There are quite a few gaming experts like Blank, but they allocate their twelve hours of gaming time each day very tightly, playing various games, so they are slightly inferior in terms of sheer dedication.

Judging from League of Legends, now is not the right time to release online games. Especially for games like World of Warcraft, JX3, and FF14, if a boss is released, the number of strategy groups in the entire internet cafe can be counted on one hand.

If there are few players, the joy of securing a first kill is lost. For now, it's best to focus on games with high replayability or those offering good rewards.

Just as Liu Yuansi was deciding which game to buy next, he received a new message from the system.

"Please have the boss expand the store to the designated location as soon as possible."

"Expanding into a new store? Or to a specific location? Has something happened?"

“Some parts of the world have the intention to go online, and because they are far away, they hope we will open new stores near them.”

Liu Yuan stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "That's not a problem. What are their needs over there?"

"No requirements. Our store's games can meet their needs. If necessary, we can also put some StarCraft games on the shelves."

"No problem, I've set aside some money for this..."

Although he has been focusing his energy on expanding his machines recently, Liu Yuan still habitually keeps several hundred thousand yuan in reserve for emergencies, which is more than enough to open a new store.

"Then system, hire new employees."

"The job posting has already been released."

"You're not going to ask me what I need?"

"A woman, and a pretty one."

"?"

Liu Yuan was shocked; the system was incredibly considerate. But in reality, the system had its own calculations. How could she not know about Liu Yuan and Mu Geng's situation? She wanted to add more attractive shop assistants so her host would know that outside women were unreliable, and only she, the system, was his true home.

"When the host completes the construction of the new store, the new employees will report for duty."

"Good~"

While Liu Yuan was replying to the system, Mu Geng asked curiously, "Boss? What are you thinking about?"

“I’m thinking about opening a branch. The second branch is now stable and the customer traffic is gradually picking up. I should consider opening a new branch.”

Leticia's branch initially had very few customers, but with the addition of Gentiya, the magical girl, and Shirogane Miyuki, they gradually brought in more new customers.

Currently, we have over ninety customers in total, with an average of around eighty people logging in daily, and the overall trend is upward. Opening a new store is definitely something we should consider.

In that case, we should just start operating the new store immediately.

Opening a new store is now a very easy thing for Liu Yuan. He can build the store directly according to the location specified by the system, and open a private room while he is using the machine.

The new store number three offers better treatment than any of the original stores. From the very beginning, Liu Yuan opened a private room for two people and a private room for five people. He also prepared ten machines for them.

According to the system description, it seems the system or something above has entered into a mutual assistance agreement with certain worlds? Based on this, it should be that after opening the shop...

There will be many guests, so it would be a dereliction of duty not to make preparations in advance!

While Liu Yuan was making preparations, the system's home base also sent an application to its world's ruler.

"Hmm? Assisting Liu Yuan with his work? Does he have romantic tendencies?"

"Yes, data collection indicates that the host has a tendency to engage in office romances, which needs to be stopped immediately."

The blonde woman watched the expressionless white-haired girl with great interest, completely skeptical of this explanation. Don't think she was unaware of what this little girl had done on Christmas Day.

The previous system that the previous user created somehow went mad and tricked its host into running away. This new user wants to do the same thing.

But then she thought about it again and suddenly smiled.

She couldn't hide Liu Yuan and Mu Geng's petty affair from her, and she had no interest in her subordinates' private lives. What puzzled her was why the systems she created seemed to have a strange possessiveness towards their hosts.

My own mods are working fine! Why is this happening? Could it be because I added too much emotion to them?

Hmm! She needs to pay attention to this. Next time she creates such an auxiliary system, she shouldn't add too much emotion, and she definitely shouldn't give it a human body. Without these, it won't be so troublesome.

If Liu Yuan had no one in mind, she naturally wouldn't let the system go. But for now, she'd be happy to watch the show.

After all, he was very confident in Liu Yuan's performance. Even if the system was good at deceiving people, there was still the option of using Mugeng.

She smiled at the thought of Kigen.

Meanwhile, Musang, who was fishing in the Minecraft world, suddenly changed her expression. She had received a message from Liu Yuan's superior; when she revealed the little secret between Liu Yuan and Musang, Musang immediately replied that she was willing to resign, but Musang stopped her.

"I forbid office romances, but many things aren't forbidden if it's not a romance. But Kisaragi, I have a request, are you interested? Dating Liu Yuan would make her blush and severely hurt my daughter."

"Your daughter?"

"That's right, she'll get the job through connections tomorrow, she'll fall for the person you like, and you! You're going to make her completely crush her."

"Hehe, she's too late. Liu Yuan is mine now."

"However, a heads-up: please refrain from crossing the line. Doing so can be assumed to be a romantic relationship."

Seeing this scene, Kisara's eyes had lost their luster. She smiled brightly, curious whether the system could, like its predecessor, completely fool its host under these circumstances.

At the same time, she was even more curious about what kind of interaction could occur between the system she had created, which was so naive and easily took a liking to the first person it came into contact with, and Kisaragi.

However, if she dares to bet 50 cents, the system will definitely lose.

She must create a situation where the system fails, otherwise, if she continues to learn from her predecessors when creating systems in the future, it will be like sending a message within a message.

Chapter 297 The System Never Knows What Awaits Her (Bonus Chapter)

"boss?"

"what?"

Liu Yuan was still studying the branch layout when he suddenly heard Mu Geng's voice and turned around curiously.

"What's wrong?"

"I suddenly understand some things that you haven't figured out either."

"What is it?"

"I've thought of a loophole in the rules: office romances are only possible if the person is actually in a relationship. If... *chu*, that doesn't count as a relationship."

"?"

A question mark slowly appeared above Liu Yuan's head. His expression changed, but he wasn't angry. He just seemed to know what Mu Geng was thinking.

"You didn't tell me?"

After saying that, Liu Yuan pressed down on Mu Geng's head. Several seconds later, Mu Geng asked breathlessly, "Is this considered a loophole?"

"Yes, because the boss didn't warn me."

"Hum~"

Both of them tacitly stopped there, and Kisara knew what the being that had just summoned him was doing by overstepping its bounds. It didn't matter; even without overstepping, it was enough.

Liu Yuan was pondering why Mu Geng had suddenly become like this. Considering the system's anomaly this time, Liu Yuan thought of a possibility.

"Oh no! Could it be that the system has taken a liking to me?"

This is not one of the three great illusions of life, but rather an analysis by Liu Yuan based on the behavior and relevant records of his predecessor.

Liu Yuan grabbed Mu Geng's hand.

"Boss, you! You! You're going a bit too far. You can't cross the line..."

"Come with me to my room."

"No, this is the only thing I won't do. A kiss is enough..."

Mugen didn't want to affect Liu Yuan either. It's true that she's a demon, but she's the kind of pure-love demon that's very rare. She's capable of doing anything for the person she loves.

"Your head is full of lewd nonsense, I'm just asking you some questions."

"oh oh!"

Kisara nodded blankly and followed Liu Yuan into his room. Although he had been into this room many times, being personally pulled in and having the door locked from the inside... Kisara suddenly felt shy.

Since it was after get off work and there was no one in the internet cafe before it opened, she was wearing simple pajamas.

"Boss... if it really doesn't work out, I can leave... that's fine too, just make sure you find me, oh, it hurts!"

Liu Yuan chopped Mu Geng on the head: "I won't give you the chance to run away after committing insubordination."

"I…"

"Don't speak, calm down, I'll ask you questions and you answer. Did she say the system is coming? If you can't understand the system, then what about her daughter?"

Her creation.

"How did you know?"

Liu Yuan reached out and vigorously rubbed Mu Geng's face: "I know a lot more than that, because the boss didn't hide anything at all, and what the system did was really too low-tech."

Do you know who's coming?

"I know, and I can guess why."

"Just because I kissed you first?"

Liu Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, because both your behavior and hers are very unusual. Since his boss told you about this, there's nothing to hide."

Liu Yuan recounted his experiences and the existence of the system. In fact, the system's existence had never been mentioned as something to be hidden. It was just that Liu Yuan found it troublesome and was too lazy to explain.

But since Kisara knew the situation and the two had further solidified their relationship, there was no need to hide it anymore.
