Chapter 36: The Visitor's Surprise! The First Quality 2 Product!
After Zhang Dong and Liu Li received their tickets to the rapeseed flower sea, they headed over to the entry point with cheerful smiles.
However, in the parking lot below, a car engine roared to life. It was Chen Yan, driving Liu Rui back home, his foot heavy on the gas pedal, clearly in a foul mood.
People’s joys and sorrows are always different.
Shortly after, another car pulled into the parking lot, and Zhao Lin, the ticket office manager, stepped outside to greet the visitors at the service center.
Two sedans stopped in the parking lot, and a group of people made their way up to the service center.
"Welcome, visitors! You can purchase your tickets here and then enter the flower sea for a beautiful view," Zhao Lin greeted warmly, guiding the visitors into the service center with professional grace.
The visitors followed her guidance and entered the service center one by one.
Lin Jiali, a college student who loved traveling, had taken a leave of absence for some personal matters. She had come back to her hometown and went shopping with her cousin, only to be drawn in by the promotional video at the RT-Mart plaza.
She never expected that her small hometown county would have such a beautiful rapeseed flower sea.
With an extra day of leave, she decided to visit the flower sea with her cousin.
What started as a leave for personal matters turned into a leave for a mini-vacation.
This was the benefit of having a scenic spot right in her hometown. The new rapeseed flower sea at Lili Farm was stunning and very appealing.
The ticket price of 50 yuan, as advertised, was not an issue.
If the real flower sea was even half as beautiful as the promotional video, it would be worth the 50 yuan.
She didn’t expect the real flower sea to be as good as the video, knowing that no scenic spot advertised without some filtering.
But as she entered the service center, Lin Jiali was suddenly taken aback. She felt an inexplicable sense of joy, and indeed, her mood had improved.
Her cousin’s voice broke the silence, "Jiali, don’t you think the service center has a great style? It makes you feel happy as soon as you step in."
Someone nearby quickly agreed, "Yes, it’s really well-built, and it’s very comfortable to look at!"
"Right, beautiful things can really lift your spirits."
"..."
Lin Jiali was surprised that everyone felt the same way. But the service center was indeed beautifully designed, likely the work of a skilled master designer.
Soon, Lin Jiali bought her ticket and went through the entry point with the other visitors.
The rapeseed flower sea was not far from the entry point.
When she saw the vast expanse of golden flowers, she was immediately captivated, her face full of surprise.
The sight was breathtaking, giving her an overwhelming sense of comfort and beauty.
The flower sea was so beautiful that it was hard to describe in words.
This was, of course, due to the +1 Attractiveness attribute.
Lin Jiali had originally been worried that the video was another misleading advertisement. In the digital age, many scenic spots were notorious for their overly filtered and exaggerated promotional videos, leading to countless online complaints and comparison videos.
Most scenic spots used too much filtering, making the promotional videos and the real views look like two different places.
It was like those internet celebrities who used filters, one of whom accidentally turned off her filter, causing her top fan to run away in the middle of the night.
For travel enthusiasts like her, the disappointment was similar to that of the fan who ran away.
But she never imagined that the rapeseed flower sea in her hometown would be so genuine. The real view was just as beautiful, if not more, than the video advertisement.
The promotional video didn’t use any filters; it was naturally this beautiful.
Moreover, the beauty of the real view was different from the video, each with its own charm.
With just one glance, she was certain that no other rapeseed flower sea in the country could compare to this one.
Not only her, but the exclamations of surprise from the surrounding visitors were continuous.
"So beautiful! I feel it’s even more beautiful than the advertisement video. I’m completely captivated."
"Yes, I’ve never seen such a beautiful rapeseed flower sea before."
"..."
Lin Jiali agreed wholeheartedly with her cousin and the others. She couldn’t resist taking out her phone to capture the beauty of the flower sea.
"So beautiful!" As she adjusted her phone to record a video, she was again surprised.
The video had a professional touch and a beautiful artistic quality.
Even the photography majors at her university couldn’t achieve this effect, could they?
Not just Lin Jiali, but all the other visitors who had taken out their phones to record found that their videos were equally beautiful, highly aesthetic, and matched the quality of the promotional videos.
Lin Jiali took two more videos and finally confirmed one thing: the flower sea was truly stunning no matter how you captured it.
She naturally knew her photography skills, and even with her casual shots turning out so beautifully, it was undoubtedly because the sea of rapeseed flowers in front of her was truly stunning.
"My, I finally believe the three essential elements of photography that I've read about online!" her cousin suddenly chimed in.
Lin Jiali asked, "1. Beautiful model. 2. Beautiful model. 3. Beautiful model?"
Her cousin shook her head and corrected her, "1. Beautiful scenery. 2. Beautiful scenery. 3. Beautiful scenery."
Lin Jiali laughed and immediately agreed with her cousin.
The three elements were universal.
A truly beautiful woman would look stunning in any photo, no need for angles, filters, or Photoshop.
Similarly, when the scenery was breathtaking, it didn't require much photographic skill to capture something that was pleasing to the eye, just like the video she was shooting now.
Thinking about this, Lin Jiali couldn't resist sharing the video in her university class group, along with a message: "Classmates, here's a video of the most beautiful rapeseed flower sea in the country."
Instantly, the group came to life.
"Ah, Jiali, where is this place? The flower sea is so beautiful!"
"Please share the location. Just watching this video makes me want to visit."
"Lin Jiali, you took leave to go on a trip? That's so unfair, and you're tempting us."
"This is the flower sea in my hometown. I took leave to handle some business and came here by chance," Lin Jiali explained, noting the reactions of her classmates. They were definitely intrigued.
She had been drawn in by the flower sea's video ads before, and it seemed she wasn't the only one.
Not only Lin Jiali, but others also started sharing the video in various groups and even on WeChat Moments, attracting many people.
These people were voluntarily promoting the place, and it was drawing even more attention.
...
Zhang Lin arrived at the restaurant and found a corner seat. He then checked his in-game interface and opened the milestone for welcoming tourists.
As time passed, tourists kept arriving in waves, and the number of tourists welcomed by the milestone kept increasing. Once he reached 100 tourists, he would receive the first reward for this milestone.
By 11:00 AM, he had already welcomed 85 tourists.
That meant he had already earned 4,250 yuan just from admission fees.
While 4,250 yuan might seem insignificant compared to the 64,000 yuan daily profit from selling 1,500 pounds of sweet peaches and 1,000 pounds of Sunshine Grapes, it was only the morning of the first day of operation. Many tourists would likely eat at the restaurant during lunchtime.
More tourists would also come in the afternoon.
Once the word spread, he was confident that the quality of his rapeseed flower sea would draw a large crowd.
He might even complete the milestone of welcoming 100 tourists by the end of the morning.
It would only take one or two more waves of tourists.
At that moment, he received a WeChat message: "Uncle, I have my last class now." It was from Fu Yao.
Zhang Lin remembered he had promised to pick her up and take her to the farm today for the opening.
He quickly got on his scooter and rushed to You County, waiting outside the high school gate and sending a video to Fu Yao.
While waiting for her, a game notification suddenly rang in his mind:
Congratulations, you have completed the milestone of welcoming 100 tourists. You have received a milestone reward: a special market refresh for a special dried honeysuckle flower, with a daily purchase limit of 1 pound. The market has been refreshed!
Seeing the 1-pound limit for the dried honeysuckle flower, Zhang Lin couldn't help but want to complain.
Even though the milestone of welcoming 100 tourists was simple, the reward seemed a bit stingy.
But just as he was about to complain, another game notification appeared:
Congratulations, when the special dried honeysuckle flower refreshed, it received an extremely rare high-quality refresh. The product quality is now +1!
Zhang Lin was taken aback by the notification and couldn't help but show his surprise.
In Agricultural Mega Player, most wholesale products were Quality 1, but there were rare instances where a high-quality refresh would occur, boosting the product to Quality 2.
Such products often became the signature items for players.
However, the probability of a high-quality refresh was very low.
Now, his in-game milestone had produced one, and it was for the small reward of welcoming 100 tourists.
Today, he had definitely kissed the feet of Lady Luck.
He quickly opened the in-game market and saw the dried honeysuckle flower.
Dried Honeysuckle Flower (Quality 2), Purchase Price: 45 yuan per pound, Daily Purchase Limit: 1 pound.
Indeed, it was Quality 2.
The game's products, even at Quality 1, had amazing effects. Now, with a Quality 2 product, he couldn't help but feel excited.
