Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 1048: The Meaning Of Artificial Intelligence

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Qiao Liang had wanted to slack off for a day, but AEEIS rebutted him.

I know that your muscles are indeed sore, so I’ve arranged all the parts that you didn’t train much yesterday. You don’t have anything to say, right?

The corners of Qiao Liang’s mouth twitched. “But I’m not in good shape today. I’m a little tired.”

It should not be a problem to fool this artificial retard even though 50% of what he said was true and 50% was a lie,

However, AEEIS remained silent for a moment before saying, “A writer who loves long-distance running once said, ‘I don’t want to run today, that’s why I ran. This is the way of thinking for long-distance runners.’”

“Similarly, I don’t want to train today. That’s why I want to train. That’s the way a person who can persevere in fitness and change himself should think.”

“There’s a high chance that you’ll give up halfway and not be able to persevere because of various reasons.”

“If there is any discomfort during training, the equipment would detect it from the strength and heart rate and other indexes. The training would be stopped immediately. If this did not happen but did not want to train, it would most likely be a mental problem.”

“If the posture is correct and the weight is appropriate, you can have enough exercise in half an hour. If you can’t even be bothered to move for half an hour...”

“In the end, you are still a lazy dog.”

“If you continue to be lazy like this, spending a few thousand yuan on the equipment would only make it worse. You might as well refund the money as soon as possible or hang the clothes to dry so that I can showcase my other functions.”

Qiao Liang did not know what to say. “...”

This artificial retard made so much sense that he was speechless.

而且这种没有感情的声音中还带着一丝淡淡的嘲讽,嘲讽的话又很有道理...

Qiao Liang sighed helplessly. “Stop talking. I’ll train, alright...”

Half an hour later, Qiao Liang slumped on the sofa with sore legs. His lower body was almost crippled.

“I don’t believe you...”

Qiao Liang felt like he had fallen into a huge trap. He could not take the slight provocation from AEEIS. He felt that he could still take it and complete today’s training plan.

However, ever since he started squats, it made him feel like he was about to die.

However, Qiao Liang felt that it was worth it seeing the calorie coins that he had painstakingly earned.

He was very reluctant to train previously since there was all sorts of stimulation and feedback during the training process. In addition, the reward after training was good enough, so he persevered.

Qiao Liang could not bear to spend all of these calories immediately. To him, they were all ‘hard-earned money’. He had to calculate carefully.

He had to think carefully especially with this lucky draw system.

That was because the lucky draw system could be refunded unconditionally once every three days. If they could not get what they wanted, they could refund it and spend calories to buy it. If they managed to get it, they could use calorie coins to buy something else.

With such a refund policy, he would not feel like he was losing out even once.

Qiao Liang opened the Shopping Mall interface and flipped through it. “I’m not charging much, just two hundred yuan.”

“I have to save some money. What if I have something that I want in the future?”

Qiao Liang had always had his own principles when it came to charging money.

If the game had a good reputation, he would buy it directly.

Of course, it would be even better if he could get a discount.

On the other hand, Qiao Liang would carefully calculate this kind of internal purchase game. At the most cost-effective moment, he would charge a value that he thought was most suitable.

Take Fitness Battle for example. If this was a serious game that could be bought out, Qiao Liang felt that it would be normal to charge 200 to 300 hundred yuan.

If it was on some of the more expensive foreign games platforms, 400 to 500 yuan would be within the normal range.

Therefore, he would charge two hundred yuan.

The lucky draw for ‘Fitness Battle’ was relatively affordable. It cost 10 yuan per try. 200 yuan would be equivalent to two 10 draws in a row. To Qiao Liang, it was enough as long as he was addicted to it. He did not want to spend money on games.

Those who spent money on games online were either rich and did not care about the tens of thousands of yuan; or they were brought in by the games company’s commercial forms and could earn back whatever money they spent.

Qiao Liang was neither. Naturally, he was more restrained in charging money.

He went to the bathroom to wash his face, and then very sincerely pressed the button for ten consecutive draws.

The animation with ten consecutive draws was just like the lucky draw interface, simple and unadorned.

Soon, ten props appeared on the screen.

Qiao Liang’s eyes swept across and he immediately looked pleasantly surprised.

Good stuff!

The quality of the props was the same as other games – white, blue, purple, and orange.

The prices of GOG’s products in the Fitness Battle were quite pro-citizens. They followed GOG’s skin-like pricing strategy.

Even though there would be slight fluctuations in the price of different products of the same quality, it could be estimated based on the rough price. White five yuan, blue eight yuan, purple twenty yuan, orange fifty yuan.

According to the instructions on the lucky draw interface, spending 100 yuan to get 80 yuan worth of props would be considered a guarantee.

Qiao Liang took a closer look at the ten props and realized that there were one orange and two purple, only one white and the rest were blue!

What’s more, the orange props were for one of the game characters. One of the two purple ones was a good training scene.

“Blood earned!”

“I never thought that I would become a godd*mn winner one day!”

Qiao Liang was almost moved to tears.

“I’ll draw again while my luck is good!”

Qiao Liang pressed the button for ten consecutive draws.

However, this time, the God of Luck did not favor him. The blue icon was mixed with a white icon. It was the standard “blue sky and white clouds”.

“F*ck you!”

Qiao Liang nearly fainted.

He could only say that the ups and downs of life were too exciting.

The first thing he did after the draw was not to check the effects of the fashion apparel, but to calculate whether he had profited or lost.

The first time was equivalent to drawing 151 yuan, and the second time was equivalent to drawing 68 yuan.

He had still made a profit even though he had made a loss the second time.

However, the second lucky draw had indeed made Qiao Liang very uncomfortable.

He wanted to keep the props for the first time, but he also wanted to return the money for the second time.

Suddenly, he had an idea.

“I wonder if we can refund them separately?”

Qiao Liang immediately opened the refund interface and realized that there was information on all orders within 24 hours. He could choose any one of them to refund.

“Isn’t that even more benevolent!!”

Qiao Liang was shocked.

If the refund policy could only refund all of the rechargeable funds within 24 hours, Qiao Liang would most likely not refund. Tengda could still earn more.

However, now that they could accurately place the order information on a single order, didn’t that mean that gamers could try infinitely?

For example, he could split the 1,000 yuan into charging ten times and get ten rounds of ten draws. Then, he could choose those that he was satisfied with, and he could pack up those that he was dissatisfied with and refund them.

He might have had three days of ‘cool down’, but the things he took out were enough for three days. He could draw again after three days.

For the first time, Qiao Liang felt that this game was too good-hearted. It was so good-hearted that even as a player, he was a little worried that the game company would lose money and go bankrupt.

After clicking the refund button, there was no additional hint, no manual review, and the like. It had automatically deducted the corresponding props and refunds!

The entire process was smooth like silk. Qiao Liang even felt that it was too fast and convenient. He was not used to it.

He did not even have a second confirmation frame. He did not even have time to go back on his words. He was refunded the money quickly.

It was as if the game was telling him: Get your stinky money away!

That way, Qiao Liang would have spent a hundred yuan and drawn 151 yuan. It was too worth it!

It was a pity that the beautiful dress that he drew out could not be worn by the girl in the game.

That was because he had to continue losing weight.

However, he could see how the girl looked in the dress after losing weight. It was indeed very beautiful.

This gave Qiao Liang more motivation to continue training.

After the draw, the game’s top-up system entered a three-day ‘cool down period’. Qiao Liang indeed calmed down and closed the game in satisfaction.

Then, he realized that his stomach was rumbling with hunger.

Fortunately, Fish-Catching Take-Out was about to deliver food to him on time. Thus, Qiao Liang swiped his cell phone to check the news online while waiting for his meal.

“Eh? Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation are holding a lucky draw?”

“It looks like a good deal.”
