Chapter 1275 - 714: Lu Yuan’s Gift (Part 2)
CHAPTER 1275: CHAPTER 714: LU YUAN’S GIFT (PART 2)
One million sets of underwear cost about 420 Spirit Essence.
This is almost equivalent to the annual fiscal revenue of the Human Alliance!
The funds naturally came out of Lu Yuan’s own pocket, even Old Cat couldn’t find fault with it.
Such an expensive gift was of course known to Li Chunhong and others, who made the proper preparations to receive it. Other cities could only look on with envy and jealousy, since only Yunhai City was Lu Yuan’s true hometown; the rest were just incidental...
The ordinary citizens subconsciously picked up their phones to scan the QR codes.
Some rumors spread like wildfire!
"Breaking news, breaking news, these clothes are extremely expensive and are extraordinary items. It looks like Green Grass City is very wealthy!"
"Jade Emperor bless me, I must win, surely there must be one out of this million for me?"
"Green Grass City can’t really be stronger than us, releasing so many at once?" In a normal person’s understanding, the gifts would surely be given by Green Grass City, not that Lu Yuan would pay for them himself. Are you kidding? What individual could take out several hundred Spirit Essence?
Some people even began to question life: "If a city from the past Earth were to suddenly appear, knowing nothing about the Pangu Continent, could we afford to visit and present such generous gifts?"
Obviously, we couldn’t.
Gifts worth hundreds of Spirit Essence are too much for a Third-level Civilization. We need to understand that most civilizations’ income equals their expenses; they can’t save a penny over the year—which seems to reflect something...
This time, the lottery program was provided by Yunhai City, ensuring every household receives an item. Lu Yuan neither agreed nor disagreed with this plan. As long as the gifts were distributed, it was fine.
Finally, Lu Yuan said in front of the TV station: "Fellow human compatriots, this time we’ve brought a lot of craftsmen and scientists with us."
"We also hope in the future that you can visit Green Grass City, learn from each other, and advance together. Thank you all!"
On-camera, Lu Yuan bowed deeply, then stepped off the stage.
He didn’t say much more.
Seeing is believing, hearing is not enough, as the saying "Green Grass City is stronger than the human homeland" goes. Once they witness it themselves, they’ll draw their own conclusions, saving Lu Yuan from much verbal explanation.
...
Sure enough, once this interview concluded, the internal discourse within Yunhai City was thrown into chaos.
Who is strong and who is weak is an eternal topic.
"Guan Yu vs. Qin Qiong" had been debated for thousands of years. Now, the suspicion that Green Grass City might be stronger than all of humanity combined created a hard-to-accept reality for many people.
But the gifts Lu Yuan presented left them unable to protest, as it’s hard to bite the hand that feeds. They couldn’t easily criticize.
"I’m a logistics department employee, a warehouse of gifts is ready."
"Although these are just underwear, they can definitely be considered high-value gifts with slight extraordinary effects. Yunhai City does not yet have this kind of product."
"Just say how much they’re worth," people posted one after another.
"We don’t have the raw materials, so we can’t estimate."
Someone posted: "Lu Yuan, I am your elementary school classmate!"
"I’m his grandma’s aunt’s son’s grandson’s classmate!"
"Throwing hundreds of Spirit Essence in our face, brother, it’s hard for me to accept this. We’re still playing with mud in the fields, and you’ve become a millionaire."
"If I don’t win, I’ll feel even worse. Jade Emperor bless!"
Soon after, other cities also became upset, venting online: "Hey, bro, throw some gifts at my face, Yunhai City is too hypocritical, they’ve committed the sins of jealousy and greed."
"Oh, damn Yunhai City, look how greedy they are, I really want to kick their butts hard!"
"Civil war!!"
The culture on the human side is indeed more open, passionately arguing.
People in Green Grass City, being highly civilized, rarely use foul language, but here threats of "starting a civil war" and "city schism" are thrown around as if casually, yet it’s enough to frighten people into logging in!
Lu Yuan played with a phone gifted by this side of Yunhai City, turned out to be a "Huawei 888," the same model he smashed when he first traveled to the Pangu Continent to use for lighting a fire. He couldn’t help but smile like a grandfather.
"Old Cat, quick, send some gifts through the Immortal Palace! The other human cities deserve it too."
"As long as you pay, the resources are unlimited," Old Cat said in a dry tone.
"One or two hundred Spirit Essence worth of supplies will do, like extraordinary consumables, clothes, pants, shoes, etc. Oh, by the way, I found your close relatives, the Haji Civilization. Do you want to send them some gifts?"
Old Cat cursed, you’re on holiday, and still, you expect me to do the work: "No, they’re just close relatives, they have nothing to do with me."
Thus, amidst the enthusiastic atmosphere, the diplomatic visit officially began!
Since both sides are human, there wasn’t much fanfare; it was like regular citizens residing here.
People fully enjoyed the food here, experiencing the local customs...
Compared to Green Grass City, how to put it, the wildness of the human mother civilization here was very pronounced!
For instance, the "Golden Spicy Chicken Roasted Rice Burger," such food from Yunhai City was extremely spicy, just a bite could set a person on fire, yet it strangely tastes good?
Also, in terms of traffic order, Green Grass City was overly orderly, with few traffic lights because manual driving was not allowed unless in emergencies, all vehicles were driven by the city’s central computer.
