Weird Rules Rumor: At The Beginning, He Insisted That He Was Not Dead
Chapter 146: A New Way to Earn Money, Buy a Guide

Bai Liang suddenly appeared in the store of conscientious service.

Looking at his store, which he had only opened a few times, Bai Liang fell into thought.

This couldn't go on; he needed to come up with another way to earn money, otherwise high-quality Genetic Elixirs would only be available after an eternity.

Thinking of this, he suddenly looked at Facai, who was chewing chips on his shoulder, and asked irritably, “Why aren't you helping at all?”

Facai looked at him, confused, “How is this my fault?”

“It's precisely because you're not helping that I'm not making money. Did all your luck stat go into your stomach?” Bai Liang snatched the chips from his hands and started eating them himself.

Facai: ...Isn't it better to uplift oneself than to belittle others, huh?

Swallowing a piece of chip, an idea flashed in Bai Liang's mind: “It seems like I could get into creating guides...”

In the Strange World, the hard currency isn't items or weapons, but guides for each dungeon!

Other things are ultimately only temporary aids, but guides can fill the intelligence gap, which clearly improves one's situation!

If you have a guide, it means you're one step ahead of others. In dungeons, being one step ahead means constantly staying ahead of everyone!

Bai Liang possessed many dungeon guides. Although his method of clearing them was strange, and many dungeons closed permanently after he cleared them, that didn't stop him from selling his guides.

It's worth noting that in the Strange World, every guide is authentic, and their authors are players who have cleared the respective dungeon.

This rule eliminates the possibility of creating false guides for deception!

As it turned out, making friends was still necessary. Although Li Xin had her own intentions regarding Bai Liang, she also provided him with a lot of useful information.

Acting on necessity, Bai Liang first took out a computer from his backpack and quickly began to write. He wrote complete guides for ten dungeons!

After writing, he printed them out on a printer, making many copies of each guide.

The simplest guide was for the "Mirror Castle" - only three words:

“One guide isn't enough, I need an advertisement too!” Bai Liang looked at the stacks of guides on the table and decided to print an advertisement.

Advertisement Title: 【Special Recommendation from the Conscientious Service Store】 Dungeon Guide that will Change Your Life!

Looking at the written advertisement copy, Bai Liang smiled and nodded, completely satisfied with the result.

Although it contains a tiny bit of false advertising, the guides are real!

Even if they aren't useful, gaining more knowledge is not bad either. Highly-rated clearings have great reference value.

Bai Liang, putting himself in other players' shoes, thought: if such an opportunity presented itself to him, he definitely wouldn't miss it!

After all, anyone who doesn't seize profitable opportunities is a fool.

After copying the advertisement more than a hundred times and handing it to Facai, Bai Liang directly opened the store door.

As soon as the door opened, a pile of small cards fell to the ground. Bai Liang looked down and saw that advertisements were written on them...

“Damn it, who's so tasteless as to shove advertisements at the entrance?” Cursing, Bai Liang kicked the cards aside, closed the store door, and headed towards the base of the "Zero Clearing" organization.

He didn't know why that little girl had come to ask for him, but this was also an opportunity to earn money; he could just make some extra cash.

Walking down the exchange street, Bai Liang noticed some unusual things. He looked at the crimson clouds on the horizon and for the first time discovered that the exchange also had a sun.

The sunset was like blood, spilling over the streets.

Stores of various styles and trees along the roadside were quietly immersed in the crimson evening light, the colors gradually deepening, creating a sense of melancholy.

Lights gradually came on; the flow of people at the exchange remained as large as usual, but did not obscure the last rays of the sunset.

A cluster of peonies stood by the roadside railings, sparkling like clouds, radiating bright light. Almost every store had flower beds and a pair of trees planted in front of it; the arrangement was well-thought-out, and the principles of Feng Shui were not forgotten here.

The flow of people intertwined between the buildings and flower fields, as if the road underfoot had transformed into a golden-red river that devoured time, leaving only nostalgia.

Bai Liang approached the base of the "Zero Clearing" organization. Their doors were closed; through the glass door, people inside could be faintly seen talking and laughing.

Bai Liang walked up to the door and noticed an advertisement attached to the doorknob. He took it off and read the content carefully:

“Important news! Important news! A new batch of elite items has arrived at the store; the assortment is complete, prices are fair, players in need should inquire...”

“What are you looking at?” At that moment, the door opened, and Li Xin looked at Bai Liang, standing at the entrance, with surprise.

“Looking at an advertisement.” Bai Liang waved the advertisement in his hand, smiled, and shook his head, “Today's people are truly tasteless; advertisements are scattered everywhere.”

“And the content of this advertisement - they're selling items? Can't those who need items just buy them in a store? The prices aren't high, and the items haven't been used, so don't worry about being deceived.”

Hearing this, Li Xin also laughed and wanted to say something.

But she saw Bai Liang toss the advertisement and wave to Facai, who was holding a stack of advertisements. Facai took one out and handed it to him. Bai Liang took it and attached it to the doorknob.

“You'd better buy yourself a guide. With only items, you won't necessarily clear it, and without a guide, it will be very difficult for you in the dungeon.”

......

Li Xin wanted to say something, but held back and swallowed the words already on her tongue; she didn't know what to say.

“By the way, how did you end up here?” she was curious, as she hadn't contacted Bai Liang herself. This guy didn't seem like someone who would just drop by; perhaps he had gotten into some trouble?

Bai Liang looked inside and said, “Your little girl is looking for me.”

Wu Fanfan? Li Xin looked around and turned, “Why is she looking for you?”

Without waiting for Bai Liang's answer, Wu Fanfan from inside the base also noticed Bai Liang at the door.

Her eyes suddenly lit up; she immediately rose from her chair and, like the wind, rushed towards Bai Liang!

“Boss, I've waited for you for so long, the flowers have already begun to wither, you've finally come!”
