145: A bold and novel idea

"Ding! Host has successfully completed the task: avenging the Little Brother in a real-person shooting game."

"Based on social recognition rating, this task received 99% approval from 458,823 people, achieving an SSS rating, and awarding 4588 points of Prestige."

"Current Host total Prestige: 7483 points."

The system's voice came from his mind.

Su Yu's face lit up with joy upon hearing this.

Completing one task actually rewarded him with over four thousand Prestige points directly! This was simply too good!

Based on the system's previous description of Prestige acquisition, he felt that obtaining a large amount of Prestige was not an easy feat.

He hadn't expected this first task to give him such a pleasant surprise.

The Prestige gained this time was more than all he had accumulated before.

If he could continue to acquire Prestige at this rate, he would truly achieve freedom.

He could exchange for any skill he wanted.

If one wasn't enough, he could exchange for several; with abundant Prestige, he could be willful and wouldn't mind trying them out.

However, the only thing that disappointed Su Yu was...

After completing the task of avenging the Little Brother, he had clearly induced the audience to suggest and plan the next task: selling toys at the elementary school gate.

But the system seemed to know his little secret and didn't give him a task according to his preconceived plan at all.

It seemed that manually designing the tasks he wanted was not that easy.

However, Su Yu had already made his announcement, and as a reputable Streamer with millions of fans, he naturally couldn't go back on his word. So, even if this plan wasn't a task, he could only grit his teeth and continue with it.

What kind of toys to sell at the elementary school gate was a question worth deep consideration.

First, according to the rules,

There were several inviolable rules for setting up a stall at an elementary school gate.

First, if selling snacks or food, food safety must be the top priority! If a large-scale food safety incident occurred, he would be held criminally liable!

However, Su Yu didn't plan to sell food, so he didn't need to worry about this rule.

Second, if selling toys, toys that promote bad habits or are suggestive are not allowed, such as lottery draws, scratch-offs, or cigarette-shaped lollipops.

These types of toys that might mislead elementary school students are forbidden.

Third, toys with a certain level of lethality or those that could easily cause harm to people are also not allowed.

For example, realistic small knives, daggers, or other sharp objects.

Cardboard gatling guns were an option, but the finished product was too large. Even if elementary school students liked them, they couldn't possibly buy them and take them to school to play, could they?

That would truly be like the song:

The sun shines brightly, flowers smile at me, birds say, 'Good morning, good morning, why are you carrying a satchel of explosives?'

Alright, although there wasn't a satchel of explosives here, carrying a gatling gun to school also seemed unreliable.

The security uncle at the gate would probably shriek as if he had seen a ghost.

Therefore, the gatling gun plan had to be reluctantly canceled.

So, what should he sell at the school gate?

While Su Yu was deep in thought, the audience in the live stream once again demonstrated the power of collective wisdom.

"Streamer, why don't you make those limited edition Ultraman cards? My nephew in elementary school told me they're really popular now!"

"What's the point of cards? Besides collecting them and looking at them, they're useless."

"Exactly, exactly. I think more practical toys are better suited for today's Little bros."

"If the Streamer really can't think of anything, why not just go to the elementary school gate and do some market research?"

"I think that's a good idea. Setting up a stall isn't urgent for a day or two; as long as you identify the customer base and position accurately, you'll definitely capture the elementary school market!"

The fans' words were a wake-up call.

Yes, since he had decided to set up a stall, there was no need to rush.

Su Yu readily took their advice!

End the broadcast, go to the school gate to research the market, and as for the subsequent plan, he would discuss it during the next broadcast!

Immediately after, he closed the live stream in front of hundreds of thousands of viewers.

Leaving behind a bewildered group of fans.

???

Wait, he said research, and then he just instantly ended the broadcast?!

...The next day, five in the afternoon.

A sneaky figure, wearing a trench coat and a black mask, appeared outside the Second Experimental Elementary School.

Today was Monday, and although it wasn't yet time for school to let out in the afternoon, the stalls outside the school gate had already formed a long line.

Su Yu walked with his hands behind his back, pretending to be idle, but in reality, he began to wander around the various street vendors.

And indeed, a school gate was simply a prime location for business. As long as the chosen items could accurately hit the mark with the Little bros, they actually weren't short on money.

One must know, the poorest people currently were university students!

Followed by high school students, then middle school students! On the contrary, elementary school students were the most generous spenders and had the most money!

Su Yu strolled past several vendors, asking about prices.

Sure enough, as Zhang Peng had said, the elementary school gate was the king of value for money!

A serving of fire noodles was 1.5 yuan, three fried dumplings for 1 yuan, fried skewers, both meat and vegetable, were 1 yuan each... And most toys were priced only between 5-10 yuan, with a dazzling array of types, but the quality was indeed mixed.

While browsing the stalls, Su Yu was surprised to find that his neighborhood's Wolf Tooth Potato Uncle had, at some point, stealthily moved his pitch again.

The Uncle even politely grinned and greeted him when he saw him.

!!!

Damn it!

How was this guy everywhere!

Su Yu's eyes widened in surprise.

However, his surprise was soon diverted by other vendors.

Su Yu saw a stall selling small toys.

Walking closer, he saw various low-quality small toys laid out on the ground.

There were metal spinning tops, twenty-something yuan each. There were plastic toy guns that could shoot rubber bands, thirty-five yuan! And also yo-yos, bubble wands, and various small cards.

In short, none of them interested Su Yu.

However, while he was observing, a Little Brother who had been let out of school early came to the stall and showed great interest in the plastic toy gun that shot rubber bands.

After some haggling, the two eventually settled on a price of thirty yuan!

Hiss!

They really had money!

Thirty yuan, bought just like that!

Today's Little bros were truly extravagant.

Seeing this, Su Yu couldn't help but recall his own elementary school days when he only had fifty cents of pocket money a day.

However, the Little Brother's purchase also made him realize that selling gun-like toys at the elementary school gate was indeed feasible!

Su Yu looked up at the stationery store at the entrance, then looked at the toy guns on the ground stall, and a bold and novel idea suddenly entered his mind.
