Chapter 521 A Grand Competition! Prize - Ascension Wine!
"Ah... Lord City Lord! It was all my fault just now!" Soha lowered his head.
Although she was also from a wealthy family and was somewhat carefree, she was not a bad person at heart.
At that moment, he realized that he had almost hurt someone and immediately apologized sincerely.
"Lord City Lord! Actually, I was also at fault." Seeing Xiao Yu's somewhat serious expression, Xue Qingcheng's pretty face showed a hint of embarrassment as she bowed slightly and said, "It was I who suggested the competition..."
Despite her gentle and delicate appearance, she is actually very strong-willed.
"Do you often participate in bicycle races?" Xiao Yu asked curiously upon hearing this.
"Um..." Seeing that Xiao Yu didn't seem angry, Xue Qingcheng breathed a slight sigh of relief before explaining in a low voice, "We just watched others play and then we copied them."
“Yes, Lord City Lord!” Soha scratched his head casually and added, “Many people in the outer city who own bicycles participate in cycling races and even gamble on them.”
"Oh? A lot of people are competing?" Xiao Yu's heart stirred slightly, and he nodded thoughtfully.
"Tell me in detail, what happened?"
"Yes, Lord City Lord! The matter is like this..."
Xue Qingcheng briefly explained the situation.
Since there were few forms of entertainment in the wilderness, some people invented gambling.
But the gambling games from before the apocalypse have long been lost; there are no poker, mahjong, or dice.
After bicycles were invented, some people used them for racing and then placed bets.
"So, you just copied them, saw that other people's races were fun, and started speeding on Longcheng Avenue?" Xiao Yu said to the two girls, annoyed.
Speeding would have landed you in jail in your past life.
If you were in a situation like the one described above and accidentally bumped into someone, you would be sentenced to prison.
Fortunately, he intervened in time, otherwise the two girls would have really caused trouble.
"I'm sorry, Lord City Lord!" The two girls bowed deeply at a ninety-degree angle.
"Alright, the person you should apologize to isn't me." Xiao Yu waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "It's the three of them. Also... you're not allowed to speed on Longcheng Avenue anymore."
"Yes, Lord City Lord!" Xue Qingcheng and the other person nodded repeatedly, like chickens pecking at rice.
He quickly ran over, bowed to the three men, apologized, and offered them compensation.
Xiao Yu, meanwhile, looked at the two women's bicycles and an idea came to mind.
Just now, Honglian said that bicycles are not selling well right now!
But now, Xiao Yu suddenly felt that he might have come up with a marketing plan.
"A competition? The city lord wants to hold a bicycle competition?" Upon hearing Xiao Yu's astonishing idea, Xue Qingcheng and the other two women widened their beautiful eyes and looked at Xiao Yu in surprise.
"Yes! I want to organize a large-scale competition!"
Xiao Yu nodded seriously and smiled, "Anyone who owns a bicycle can participate in the competition! The top three winners will receive very generous rewards, even... Ascension Wine!"
"What? Ascension Wine?"
Once they confirmed that Xiao Yu was genuinely interested in organizing the competition, the two women's eyes lit up.
After all, they are young and love excitement and competitiveness.
There are even generous rewards now, including the Ascension Wine!
You know... that's the Ascension Wine!
Both women had personally experienced and witnessed the auction in the City of Ruins.
After drinking the Ascension Wine, Feng Chi awakened for the second time on the spot, and his strength was directly enhanced by leaps and bounds!
Even the East City Lord Sotun, who was halfway to the ninth level, saw his strength increase significantly after drinking the Ascension Wine.
It's no surprise that this wine lives up to its name, "Ascension to Immortality."
Anyone who drinks it will definitely benefit greatly!
"I want to participate in the competition!" Soha immediately raised his hand to indicate that he was determined to participate.
“Me too!” Xue Qingcheng raised her little hand, her eyes shining.
Upon hearing this, Soha immediately narrowed her eyes and looked at her best friend.
Xue Qingcheng also looked at the other party, showing no sign of backing down.
This is the wine that grants ascension to immortality! Don't miss this opportunity!
Even if it's your best friend, you can't let her get away with it!
"I see!" Honglian, who was standing to the side, didn't understand at first what her brother was suddenly going to do.
But now, seeing the two women's reactions, she felt she understood.
First, set a prize for the competition—a treasure that no one can refuse.
The first requirement for the competition is to buy a bicycle!
Based on this alone, Honglian felt that bicycle sales would be booming.
Tomorrow she should go to the bicycle factory to inform Gao Tai and others to increase bicycle production.
In fact, Honglian only knew one side of the story.
This is the inertia and limitation of Honglian's thinking.
Xiao Yu's idea to organize a competition goes beyond just selling bicycles.
You should know that in the past, every time a large-scale event was held on Earth...
The real beneficiaries are the surrounding industries.
Those hotels and tourism businesses made a fortune without doing any advertising.
Longcheng has so many good things.
A large-scale event will benefit various industries.
The four of them then traveled together.
Soha blinked her beautiful eyes and asked curiously, "When does the city lord plan to hold the competition?"
"Well..." Xiao Yu thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I haven't decided yet."
He organizes competitions, not really for the sake of competition, but to generate buzz and get everyone to love cycling and ride bicycles.
As for the Ascension Wine, even if tens of thousands of people compete, only one or two portions need to be brought out.
This meant nothing to Xiao Yu.
However, he was able to sell thousands of bicycles as a result.
That's tens of millions of energy stones!
"At most, within half a month," Xiao Yu finally said.
Previously, he had planned to wait until he had finished taking over those major powers before he could leave.
But now, if a bicycle race is to be held, the stay can be extended by a few days.
However, this period of time will not be too long; the competition will be completed within half a month at most.
"Oh, then we'll have to practice properly," Soha said, waving his little fist.
"That's right! I must get first place!" Xue Qingcheng also said.
"Not bad! You're quite motivated." Xiao Yu praised with a smile, then looked at the two lively girls and casually asked, "I heard you're both acting at the theater now. How's the theater doing lately?"
He hasn't been back since the theater was built and the auction was held.
He hasn't paid attention to theater performances or anything like that for a long time.
“It’s great, everyone likes it!” Soha answered first.
After each performance, they are greeted with enthusiastic applause and cheers.
"It's really quite good. Everyone loves the love story 'The Butterfly Lovers' written by the City Lord. And your works like 'Glorious Years' and 'Song of the Mountain Eagle' are also very popular. It's just..."
