Chapter 52: What the—!

She could take at most five orders a day. There was also the business of farming gold coins and selling them. These were basically Shi Qingqing’s main sources of income. On average, she made about two thousand yuan a month—over a thousand when business was slow, sometimes even three or four thousand when things picked up. Now, a single ticket to Shen Mingxuan’s concert was shockingly expensive. Hmm, running a game boosting shop and selling concert tickets on the side was perfectly feasible. Shi Qingqing pondered this silently, opened her little game shop, set the price at eight thousand per ticket, and listed it for sale...
If she could actually sell one, it would equal several months’ worth of her boosting income. Perfect!
After listing the concert ticket, she opened the backend system; today was the day for order renewals. As expected, several new orders appeared—some from old clients, some from newcomers. These days were when regular customers returned to place new orders. Renewing meant business would continue, and Shi Qingqing had work to do today.

She now had incoming income. A single account renewal lasted thirty days and earned her three hundred yuan. Three old clients had renewed; she already had their account credentials, so she could log in directly. The other three were new customers and needed some communication. Shi Qingqing added their online shopping IDs; one person was offline and unreachable, another had incomplete account security, so Shi Qingqing declined the order. Accounts with incomplete security posed too great a risk. As a game booster committed to honesty and hassle-free work, she only took on secure accounts. Her boosting was just daily tasks—no need for transactions or anything else—so if something disappeared from a client’s account, it wouldn’t be her fault.
Nowadays, with so many hackers and troublemakers, messy disputes could damage her reputation as a reliable booster. Business was good this time; she even had an order from a top-tier account, “Knowing Is Hard, Doing Is Harder.” This was one of the legends of the Capital Storm server.
For such a big player to seek out her humble boosting services, Shi Qingqing felt a bit flattered. The expert even paid her two months’ boosting fee in advance. With four routine account jobs coming in at once, Shi Qingqing was full of energy. The temporary financial crisis was resolved.

Shi Qingqing quickly finished all her homework. She opened “Emperor Online” and logged into the Capital Storm server. Of course, her phone sat beside the computer; she tapped the “grab” button every few minutes, snatching red envelopes when they appeared, waiting a bit between tries if none showed up.
The system was now at level two, with its range expanded to five hundred meters, covering several buildings ahead and behind. Unfortunately, there weren’t many red envelope groups in this area, and the amounts were small. Filtering by maximum value, she only managed to grab a few tiny packets worth a few cents...
But Shi Qingqing didn’t mind at all. She discovered the phone system would continue to upgrade, and to do so, it depended on grabbing red envelopes—not the amount, just the number of times. Every upgrade brought unimaginable benefits, so she needed to keep grabbing.
The Capital Storm server was packed to capacity—it was nine o’clock in the evening. Shi Qingqing had started queuing while doing her homework, waited half an hour, finished her assignments, and just as she did, the expert’s account made it into the server queue.
