Mr. Fang was at a loss for words after seeing this.
In fact, including the customers who didn’t come each day, the two shops now had about 10,000 customers, and it was a booming business. To make it easy for Jiang Xiaoyue, Mr. Fang allowed her to move a computer to the counter so that she didn’t have to run to the counter every time to take payment.
Fortunately, many of the players came to develop their forces in the Legend of Mir 2, such as members of the Jiuhua Army, the Royal Guard, and the Black Demon Guard.
The members of the same force came and went together and even paid as a group; everything was in order. Otherwise, Jiang Xiaoyue and Zou Mo would have had been overwhelmed and exhausted even though they had cultivation strengths and thus were more nimble than ordinary people.
Right now, there were many players of Grand Theft Auto 5. Now that the forces in the Legend of Mir 2 were established, and the fights among them couldn’t easily change the current situation, the people of Black Demon, the Coiled Dragon Office, and the Yuanheng Pavilion would go and play the new game whenever they had time.
After all, a portion of stuff in the game was very useful to them.
The Yuanheng Pavilion was a shop selling all kinds of treasures. If it could place one or two machine-like weapons in the shop, different from the spiritual artifacts, it would be very eye-catching.
The players in the shop in Jiuhua City were even more enthusiastic about this game.
“Let’s turn on the livestream,” Mr. Fang said. “Now, get into the car.”
Three people gathered in Mr. Fang’s house. Then, the door opened, and Mo Xian walked in wearing a white long-sleeved floral T-shirt, a black vest, and a pair of big sunglasses.
“Are you a big celebrity now? You are even wearing a pair of sunglasses to do this job?” Now, the teammates were all here.
“Ugh? The shop owner turned on the livestream again?” Many players looked toward the big screens in surprise since it was usually only turned on for the weekly TV Series.
“Grand Theft Auto 5 online mode?” There were many new players now, and they were pleasantly surprised that they could watch Mr. Fang’s livestream.
Many of them were very confused with the online mode. They couldn’t earn money but didn’t dare to enter others’ teams in fear of being called noobs. Therefore, they were forced to play the offline mode. But obviously, it was more fun to drive and play with other players, and they could earn more money there as well.
Many disciples of Xiyi Academy and Shengjing Academy sat down on the couches to watch. Liang Shi and his friends also joined in. They had earned their first pot of gold in their lives in the Origins Internet Club, and they had great interests in the mechanisms of guns and cars, so they got offline and watched the livestream on the couches while sipping Coke.
“Today, I’ll broadcast the new job,” Mr. Fang explained, “I brought two friends from Half City and one from Jiuhua City. Friends of Jiuhua City must all know Ms. Nalan who is the champion of the Counter Strike group competition, and I’m confident in her marksmanship. As for the two teammates from Half City whose IDs are ‘Black Fairy’ and ‘Smoky Rain in Green’, they are new players.”
“Sir! I’m an old driver!” Mo Xian was not pleased with this introduction.
Ning Bi smiled charmingly, “I’m a new player, and I appreciate your future guidance!”
Bullet messages soon flooded the screen.
[So, there are beauties in the Morning Star Sea Realm!]
[I thought people over there are all fierce-looking, fat, and have at least eight scars on their faces.]
[I thought the cultivators of the Morning Star Sea Realm are all gloomy, vicious, and murderous-looking...]
[You guys obviously have some damn misconceptions about our Morning Star Sea Realm, uh?] Obviously, a displeased cultivator of the Morning Star Sea Realm sent this message.
[The two girls are so beautiful!]
[Hello! Beauties from the Morning Star Sea Realm.]
...
“So, Lester said that you might be able to help us.” The mastermind who planned this mission was a guy with a crewcut. After the Fleeca Bank Job, Lester obviously thought that Mr. Fang was a good partner and had introduced a new job to him. “Ugh, in fact, it isn’t me who is seeking your help. I’m not involved in your business.”
“We don’t mean to recruit you; it’s just an opportunity,” the guy said to the players. “Professor Maxim Rashkovsky was a top scientist in the military.”
“He has three doctorate degrees and knows a lot, but he is also a vain sociopath, control freak, weapon developer, engineer... He’s definitely not an ordinary person.”
“He’s a god-damn traitor. I mean he’s a rat and got imprisoned for crimes...”
Just from the introduction, the job was obviously not on the same level as the previous ones. The players’ target was this professor.
This wasn’t an ordinary job anymore; it was more like a scene one could only see in TV Series or movies.
In short, it could be described with only two words – big deal.
“However, we’ll need to do some preparations which are quite easy. It’s just a standard operation to break into the government’s organizations, if you know what I mean.”
The plane was the first heist setup for the Prison Break, which was robbing the plane; it was what Mo Xian and her team had tried to do before.
After getting downstairs, Mr. Fang drove his black armored Kuruma out of his garage. It wasn’t the first time that they saw the thick and heavy car, but it was still an impressive sight.
“Kuruma?! The shop owner already bought a Kuruma?!”
“From the looks of it, it’s bullet-proof!”
The whole car was bullet-proof and equipped to the windows, and the windows were much smaller than the usual ones surrounded by heavy and thick bullet-proof plates. If the people in the car wanted to shoot, they could just stick out the guns through the narrow windows. They were almost inside a moving fortress.
Ordinary guns would present little threat to such a bullet-proof vehicle.
“I guess you must have emptied the bank, right?” Nalan Mingxue looked at Mr. Fang’s smug face.
After all, the Kuruma was very expensive.
“Don’t waste time. Get in the car, and the armored car will take you flying,” Mr. Fang said heroically.
He ignored their identities as fairies and a demonic woman; he got them onto the car, and they were going to rob the plane.
“Can I drive it? It’s far from here.” Seeing Mr. Fang’s luxurious car, Mo Xian was eager to drive it.
“No! I can do it!” With one hand on the steering wheel, Mr. Fang pulled out a song list. The music that players purchased in Qzone or songs that they recorded themselves could all be stored in Grand Theft Auto 5.
Soon, the familiar music rose in the car.
“Jung sing heung hei gwai ga dik seun hou, joi ta sang meng leui, fong fat dai dim hei heui ...”
[TL Note: meaning – The clock bell chimes the signal to go home. In his life, there seems to carry a small sigh of regret.]
While he drove, the song came to the climax, “Gam tin ji yau chan lau dik keui hok, ying jip gwong fai seui yuet.”
[TL Note: meaning – Today there is only the remains of a shell, to welcome the glorious years.]
Then, female voices sang along, “fung yue jung pou gan ji yau...”
[TL Note: meaning – Holding fast to freedom in the wind and rain. Since this was a Cantonese song, it sounds different in Mandarin. It would be misinterpreted as ‘banging a gay friend in the wind and rain’.]
Mr. Fang turned to look at Ning Bi and Mo Xian, at a loss for words.
“Little Shop Owner, why are you stare at me like that?” Ning Bi asked in bafflement.
Mo Xian said, “We sang it correctly...”
