300: System upgrade completed
The place Su Yao rented was not particularly far from where Zhang Rui rented.
It was about a 20-minute walk.
Anyway, there was nothing else to do, so the two cousins walked back to their rented place.
They met Zhang Rui's roommate, who was a Malaysian Dragon Country People.
They chatted amicably for a while, because among all the people in the world, the ones who felt the most sense of belonging to the Dragon Country People, besides the Dragon Country People themselves, were the Malaysian Dragon Country People.
They spoke standard Mandarin, and from childhood, they attended independent Chinese Language Schools, making them a group in the world that has preserved Dragon Country People traditions exceptionally well.
Moreover, they are the overseas group that most hopes for the Dragon Country People to be strong.
Therefore, with such a roommate living with Zhang Rui, their relationship was quite harmonious, without much of that nonsensical drama.
Li Qinghe also took the opportunity to inquire about Malaysia's environment and relevant attractions, so he would know where to go when he visited Malaysia later.
After washing up in the evening, the two brothers lay on their beds and chatted for a while.
Zhang Rui looked at He Zai with a hint of apology: "He Zai, after tomorrow, I won't be able to go out and play with you. Be careful when you're out alone. Singapore's public security is good, but you can get fined if you're not careful."
In Zhang Rui's words, "The rules are written in the air."
Jaywalking, a 1000 singapore dollar fine;
Spitting or flicking cigarette butts on the ground, a 1500 singapore dollar fine;
Not flushing the toilet completely, a 750 singapore dollar fine;
Drinking water on the subway, a 500 singapore dollar fine;
Feeding pigeons, a 5000 singapore dollar fine for the first offense, 10,000 singapore dollar for the second;
Keeping a cat in an HDB flat, a 20,000 singapore dollar fine;
Drinking alcohol after 10:30 PM requires a permit;
Even piggybacking on someone else's WiFi carries a 1000 singapore dollar fine.
Even more amusing was that when eating at a hawker center, you had to clear your own tray and return it to the designated cleaning area; failing to do so would result in a 1500 singapore dollar fine.
There's nothing you can't think of that they haven't made a rule for.
But in reality, jaywalking also occurs in Singapore; it just depends on the probability of getting caught.
In Singapore, people are also not allowed to chew gum casually, and spitting out gum can result in a 400 singapore dollar fine.
To help Qinghe avoid pitfalls, Zhang Rui truly worried himself sick.
Only after Qinghe nodded and said he remembered everything did Zhang Rui lie down relieved, ready to sleep.
Zhang Rui's Popular Science made Qinghe feel that Singapore was simply too restrictive.
Even bars would all close around 1:00 AM to 2:00 AM; those who wanted to party all night could forget about it.
So, Qinghe planned to stay in Singapore for a while, just to have some fun and get his company registered first.
Before going to sleep, Qinghe habitually glanced at the system in his mind, which almost made him sit up.
It turned out that the long-dormant system had completed its upgrade, still maintaining its characteristic of never making a sound unless Qinghe actively sought it out.
Money-Giving System 2.0.
The money-giving base is determined by the current cumulative number of followers across all platforms on the entire network. The current cumulative number of followers is 3,521,026. Unfollowing does not affect the money-giving.
For every million follower value, one Popularity Coin is generated, rounded to the nearest whole number. Currently, the daily income is 4 Popularity Coins.
The System Mall is now open. Each week, a batch of items will be randomly listed in the mall, primarily focusing on fixed assets within a 20-kilometer radius of the host's current location, with occasional technology, skill, and causality-type items.
Purchases require Popularity Coins. A maximum of 2 items can be purchased per week.
Mall refreshing... 98 and 99 Duxton Road shophouses, three stories, total building area 662 square meters, 2 Popularity Coins.
Orchard Road Amo Garden Apartment No. 3001, 308 square meters, 4 bedrooms, 2 living rooms, 3 bathrooms, 1 Popularity Coin.
Orchard Road Amo Garden Apartment No. 3002, 204 square meters, 4 bedrooms, 2 living rooms, 2 bathrooms, 1 Popularity Coin.
Outram Road Man Bao Xuan Apartment No. 2701, 502 square meters, 5 bedrooms, 2 living rooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 Popularity Coins.
ION Orchard Commercial Complex, 36th floor, Orchard Road, building area 1006.52 square meters, five separate titles, 4 Popularity Coins.
ION Orchard Commercial Complex, 23rd floor, 2301, Orchard Road, building area 421.12 square meters, two separate titles, 2 Popularity Coins... The mall was densely packed with top-tier luxury homes and office buildings within a 20-kilometer radius of Chinatown.
Most of them were concentrated around Orchard Road, the central CBD.
Looking at the 4 freshly deposited Popularity Coins in the system and remembering that he was about to register a company and needed an office location.
Qinghe's gaze fell on the office building on the 36th floor. With a thought, the 4 Popularity Coins disappeared, and with them, the information about that floor's office building in the mall.
A file bag appeared next to Qinghe's pillow. He casually put the file bag into his personal space.
Although the space was not large, it was perfectly fine for storing such valuable items.
Having resolved one matter, Qinghe slept very soundly... That night, Su Yao, back in her rented room, excitedly curled up on the living room sofa and quickly opened her laptop.
Because Li Qinghe had taken too many photos, it would take a while to transfer them via phone.
She had already given Li Qinghe her email address.
Not long after, Li Qinghe informed her that all the photos had been sent to her email.
When she opened her email, Su Yao was almost dumbfounded; there were over 60 GB of photos, almost completely filling her inbox.
Fortunately, Su Yao's email had been expanded and could still accommodate such large files.
Clicking on the email, Su Yao couldn't help but give Li Qinghe a thumbs up.
Because Li Qinghe had organized different themes into separate folders and zipped them up.
Su Yao didn't have to wait for the entire folder to download to view them; instead, she could choose some interesting themes to download first, and the others would download slowly in the background.
"Wow, what are you secretly looking at?"
A loud shout suddenly rang in Su Yao's ear, startling her so much that she almost threw her laptop.
"Tingting, you almost scared me to death."
Su Yao stood up with a playful pout and playfully slapped the person behind her.
The person behind her also took the opportunity to sit on the floor in front of the sofa, cross-legged, grinning at Su Yao.
Liao Yuting
This was Liao Yuting, her university classmate and cohabiting roommate, also a Dragon Country People. It was because of her presence that Su Yao didn't move in with Zhang Rui.
"Tingting, do you think it looks good?" Su Yao presented her laptop to Liao Yuting like a treasure.
"Oh my goodness, Yao Yao, where did you find this photographer? How can he take such beautiful pictures!"
"Zhang Rui's cousin helped me take these, and he only used a mobile phone! See, aren't they even better than those taken with professional cameras..."
...The next morning, Qinghe woke up with Zhang Rui.
"He Zai, do you want to sleep a little longer?"
It was just past 7 o'clock, and Zhang Rui instinctively wanted Qinghe to sleep a bit more.
"It's fine, I usually wake up early too."
Qinghe sat on the sofa bed, watching Zhang Rui quickly wash up in the bathroom.
"Oh, by the way, He Zai, have you exchanged for singapore dollar? I'll give you some to use first."
Zhang Rui took out two or three thousand singapore dollar from his wallet.
"Brother, don't worry, I have plenty."
Qinghe directly pulled out a stack of 20,000 singapore dollar. With the system upgrade complete, all his followers across the network counted, and his current daily income, converted to singapore dollar, was over 630,000.
He had no worries about running out of money.
Showing Zhang Rui only 20,000 singapore dollar was because Singapore does not allow carrying more than 20,000 singapore dollar into the country.
However, this rule only applied to ordinary people; for Qinghe, such a rule simply did not exist. He could exchange as much of his daily earnings as he wanted.
Seeing the thick stack of banknotes in Qinghe's hand, Zhang Rui then realized that his young cousin's earning ability was not inferior to his own.
That stack alone was almost two months of his salary.
Seeing that Qinghe had money, Zhang Rui no longer insisted. After washing up, he put on his work bag and left for work.
