Chapter 52: Are You Looking Down On The Boss?
There were already people cursing at her in the livestream chat. “You’re so arrogant!”
“Oi, isn’t this cheating?”
Not all the netizens who were watching the livestream were the same ones who had doubted Jiang Xun in the past. There were people who were caught up in the heat of the moment, and there were also those who were here purely to watch the show.
These people were more neutral in their stance.
“You still have the balls to accuse her of making a fake video? It’s already been proven that the video is real! These guys are just in denial.”
“I’m more and more convinced that Jiang Xun’s the real deal.”
Jiajia, who was in charge of managing the live chat, took the opportunity to say, “If Jiang Xun can prove that she used a real stone in her video, then feel free to subscribe to her so you don’t miss any future livestreams!”
The fat boy aimed the metal buckles on his joints at the stone slab and pounded it hard. Despite his efforts, however, the stone slab did not budge an inch.
In the end, he stood up in embarrassment and walked away.
“This challenger has failed to break the rock!” Tailai shouted, “Next.”
Haina called out five ids in succession, but no one came up.
“No one is going to challenge again?”Jiang Xun raised her voice and asked.
In the livestream room, the netizens who were watching the show laughed. “How are they supposed to challenge her? It’s obvious that the stones are real.”
“Looks like there’s a group of people who have to apologize~”
“I’m really curious. Since so many people doubted her before, I have to wonder if she really did memorize all the IDs?”
“Then I’m going to have the stone smashed now,” Jiang Xun announced as she lay down on the chair that they’d brought from the dormitory.
Since he’d done it before, Bingbing was much less nervous this time.
Fang Zhenghui and Zhao Dejia placed the stone slab on Jiang Xun’s body. After they finished, Tailai announced, “Everyone saw it, right? This is the same stone slab in the video. Furthermore, everyone has checked that there’s no problem with the stone slab, right?”
“Yeah, there’s no problem with it,”someone in the crowd said.
“Hurry up and start! It’s getting dark.”
While all this was happening, Mufeng was standing on the outskirts of the crowd. There were a lot of people blocking him from view, so Jiang Xun’s people didn’t notice him.
Mufeng opened the livestream on his phone even though he was also at the scene itself. It was his first time watching a livestream, but he managed to find the ‘send gift’ button and scrolled down the list of gifts he could buy.
The most expensive gift was the 30,000-flash coin carnival.
He wanted to give Jiang Xun money, but since she refused to accept it, he could only resort to this method.
After all, Jiang Xun had fallen out with Jiang Chengye because of him, and because of that, she had to rely on such a dangerous method to earn money.
It seemed that he could exchange 1 yuan for 10 flash coins, which was what the website used as their form of currency. In other words, if he were to buy one carnival, it could cost him only 3,000 yuan.
However, when he went to finalize the purchase, the system notified him that he had not logged in yet.
…Right. He’d forgotten about that.
And so, Mufeng had to register for an account. When it was time to enter a nickname, Mufeng thought for a moment and entered ‘qin’, but it turned out that his nickname was already taken by someone else.
“…”
He ended up adding a few more n’s at the end and changed it to ‘qinnnn’.
This time, the registration was finally successful.
Mufeng filled up his account and immediately purchased 10 carnival bundles. Instantly, the screen was filled up with the special effects of the carnivals, rendering everyone unable to see what was happening.
“Wtf where did this rich guy come from!”
“He bought 100 carnivals?! Isn’t that like 300k yuan?!”
“Big Boss, with this kind of money, you can even buy a small celebrity instead of simping for a live streamer”
“No, Big Brother, even if you have money, you can’t stop us from watching the livestream! This is too much!”
qinnnn: “Be careful next time.”
“@stroboscopic assistant, it’s time for you guys to level up. The most expensive gift is only 3,000 yuan. Are you looking down on the boss? Of course the least she deserves is 30,000 yuan!”
Following that, another person said, “Since that’s the case, I’ll buy her the dream castle bundle if she succeeds.”
“If he succeeds, I’ll give her the villa with a sea view.”
Jiajia had been watching the livestream the entire time. She was so shocked that she couldn’t close her mouth, and tears of envy slid down her face.
“We’re both uploading videos, but why is Jiang Xun so outstanding?”
Haina was speechless as she patted Jiajia’s shoulder in sympathy.
Meanwhile, Jiang Xun said to Bingbing, “That’s enough.”
Zhou Daxin had also found a good angle to film, and so Bingbing raised his hammer high and smashed it down on the stone heavily.
He was afraid that he would fail and cause Jiang Xun to lose face, but the stone slab shattered, and Jiang Xun stood up as if nothing had happened. “Alright, does anyone want to check the rest of the stones? If not, we’ll take them away and properly dispose of them.”
In the live chat.
“Wow, you’re so civic-minded!”
“You’re really good…”
The onlookers came up to check again.
They found that it was indeed a real stone, and there wasn’t a single flaw in it. When they were done, Jiang Xun took out a bag and gathered the shattered fragments of the stones into it.
It was at this time that Jiajia came over and whispered, “A big shot just gave you a gift of 300,000 yuan.”
“Huh?”Jiang Xun’s eyes lit up. “I made 300,000 yuan all of a sudden? Can I cash it out now?”
“Yes, but the platform will take a cut,” Jiajia explained. “It’s 50-50, which means you’ll only get 150k yuan.”
“Not only that, Shanpin has a tax deduction system that will automatically deduct taxes for you. When you cash in your money, the system will automatically calculate the taxes you need to deduct, so you can only really withdraw the amount left after tax.”
“This is good. It saves me from filing taxes by myself.”Jiang Xun was glad that Shanpin could be so considerate.
She was preoccupied with the fact that she was able to earn so much with just one short video and one livestream! At this point, she didn’t have to worry about her tuition and living expenses anymore, and on top of that, she could also return the money to Jixuan.
“Jiang…Jiang Xun, someone bought you a dream castle.” Jiajia was practically drooling with envy.
“How much does one cost?”Jiang Xun tidied up the remainder of the slate and stood up with the bag.
“28,888 flash coins.”
“Jiang Xun, someone also gave you a 6288 flash coin sea-view Villa.”Haina looked at the screen again and felt numb. “I can’t explain it. There are too many gifts.”
In the live chat.
“6666. As long as she’s really capable, I’ll be her fan.”
“I’ve said before that I’ll be her fan if she’s really filming. I’ve already subscribed to her!”
“It’s rare for such queens to exist nowadays. I hope she doesn’t break character!”
At this moment, Daxin handed the phone to Jiang Xun, who looked down and saw the comments. “What character? I don’t do that.”
“Hey, why are you looking down on us like that?”
“Oh that’s such a good angle. I’ve been blessed.”
“Oh my God, I’m gonna die. I admit defeat.”
“Don’t forget to apologize to me. You can do it on Weibo or on Shanpin. Goodbye.” After Jiang Xun said that, she decisively turned off the live stream.
