Chapter 154 Goodwill
"Ah...well, okay then." Xu Yichi scratched her head with a shy smile. She held Bai Miaomiao's eyes and exchanged glances for a long time. After hesitating for a long time, she finally agreed to it reluctantly.
——Although she rashly accepted such an expensive gift, she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
But this matter is just as Gong Zhou said before. On the one hand, after spending the past few days together, she felt that the ancestors really treated them as juniors. These were treasures given by the elders, and they, as juniors... really lived up to the saying "I feel unworthy to receive them, and would be disrespectful to refuse them."
Secondly, what Senior Gong Zhou said about using this pot to deal with emergencies at critical moments was also true - to put it bluntly, they had only been thinking "if something goes wrong, we can just start over again", and had not considered whether there would be any trouble that was completely beyond their expectations and could not be solved by simply "starting over again".
For example, will someone have an accident in their family, or someone suddenly become seriously ill... Or after the successful production of "Shadow Weaver" and the scale of the studio grows in the future, will they face the problem of insufficient funds for studio expansion, or the failure of a certain game production and losses, so that they have to mortgage their existing assets or even sell the game copyright.
These are hidden worries that they have never considered before, but which may indeed exist.
——Two or three million is indeed not a lot.
This amount is not large enough to easily support the ten people in their studio, nor is it enough to make them lose their sense of proportion or the perseverance and courage to work tirelessly because they feel that they have something to cover their expenses.
At the same time, two or three million is indeed a lot.
One day, they really have to face those complex and difficult problems.
This money can at least give them a chance to breathe, a chance for them to preserve all their hard work and to resist others from taking advantage of the situation and snatching away the full copyright of their games.
——This is the greatest kindness Gong Zhou can give them as an elder.
And after careful consideration, they decided to accept his kindness.
It was like solemnly accepting the heartfelt blessings of an elder and his expectations for their future.
"Then we would like to thank you in advance, Senior Gong Zhou." After thinking about it, the little girl grinned and thanked the demon spirit that had lived for who knows how many years. Her nose, which had been fine before, suddenly felt sour for some reason.
She felt like she wanted to cry, but she burst into tears right away, and she felt a little embarrassed.
So he pretended to look out the window to see the scenery, and blinked his eyelashes desperately.
If she blinked fast enough...
That will surely dry up the tears that are about to overflow.
Xu Da's train of thought went astray for a moment for no reason, and this interruption actually made her stop crying.
Fortunately, Gong Zhou, who had been busy checking the contract in his hand, did not notice her slight abnormality. When he heard her thank you, he couldn't help but smile: "You're welcome. After all, I'm an experienced person!"
"——People who have experienced it always want to pass on some experience to the new kids. I just don't want you to take the same detours I took and step into the same pitfalls I stepped into."
"Okay, Xiao Xu, let's not talk about this." Gong Zhou waved his hand and handed the contract in his hand, which he had checked and found to be correct, to Xu Yichi and others.
"——Come, take a look at the contract. This is the most important thing we have to do today!"*
After signing the contract, Xu Yichi and others did not stay in Jiangsu Province for long. They just stayed in Gong Zhou's purple clay pottery studio for one more day, took a lot of first-hand materials at close range, and then took the high-speed train early the next morning and returned to Xinchuan.
When Gong Zhou drove the three of them back, he was reluctant to let them go. Before leaving, he looked back every three steps and reminded the girls to come to Su Province to visit him more often when they had nothing to do.
It was not until Xu Dazao was annoyed by this ancestor that he agreed to wait until the chapter about purple clay pottery was completed that she immediately brought the demo to Jiangsu Province and asked him to experience it himself. Only then did he reluctantly hum as he left the exit.
——It can be seen that Senior Gong Zhou really likes to take the three of them to jump around and make noises.
But it's a pity that if they stay in Su Province any longer... those naughty kids in the studio should really be jumping around and having fun at home.
...That would be a bit difficult.
An Sheng got on the high-speed train and Xu Da's eyes wandered uncontrollably. The window reflected the hurried figures of countless pedestrians on the platform.
but……
"Xiaoyi, did you notice?" Bai Miaomiao, who was sitting next to her, spoke suddenly, interrupting the little girl's thoughts without warning.
Xu Yichi turned around and asked, "What?"
"From the time we decided to make a non-legacy game to now," Bai Miaomiao sighed as she looked at the luggage rack above her head, "all the people we met along the way were good people!"
"It's Teacher Yang, who is young but looks like an elder. It's also your idol, Ms. Lan, who agreed to help us write the soundtrack for the game..."
"Teacher Gong Zhou, who looks as kind as my grandfather, is still like this. Even those Taoist priests in Yaoshan Temple who seem unreliable - well, I don't mean to be bad to the Taoist priests here - they are all good people."
"It seems that we have grown up slowly with everyone's help along the way." Bai Miaomiao said, grabbing Xu Yichi and An Qing's arms very emotionally, "Although there are bumps and bumps, we encounter new problems from time to time."
“But overall, it’s going pretty smoothly.”
"Xiao Yi, tell me, is this a reward from God for good people like us who are diligent, hardworking, and willing to work hard?"
"Since it's so thoughtful, I can briefly acknowledge that I am its granddaughter, woo woo!"
"...Laxative, we did meet a lot of good people and it was quite smooth along the way." An Qing was silent for a moment, then quietly pulled out his arm without leaving any trace, "But please don't use the word 'cows and horses' to describe us casually, thank you."
——She felt that they were not yet at the stage where they should be treated as "oxen and horses".
Although they are indeed busier than the average office worker when they are busy...the cooks usually like to jokingly call Xiaoyi "boss", but overall, they are starting their own business and working for themselves, not like slaves.
——At best, you can be considered a buffalo or a wild horse!
"Oh~ Qingqing, don't pay attention to these details!" Bai Miaomiao rolled her eyes elegantly, "I just want to express my feelings that all the people I met recently are good people."
“It’s been a while since I’ve felt so much kindness from a group of people who were originally strangers.”
