There is One New Rule Every Month Globally-Chapter 551 - 370: "I knew Chief Li was someone who appreciates art."_2
"Everyone says that players of Alien Races have fiery tempers, but it looks like you guys love peace too,"
Li Yide wrapped his arm around a Minotaur and clicked his tongue in appreciation, "I've had such a great time chatting with you today. When I leave the Novice Planet later on, I'm definitely going to find you and we'll have a huge drink together."
"No problem."
The Minotaur smiled bitterly inside, feeling somewhat helpless.
It wasn't that they were fond of peace.
With that glaringly obvious "Yi God's Gecko" title above your heads, who would dare to mess with you? At this time, Chen Yi's reputation in the entire game was exceptionally loud—nobody would dare to touch a member of Yi God's clan.
Wouldn't that be asking for an extermination?
Just then—
A slightly drunken Minotaur stumbled over, pointed at Li Yide's nose with an indignant expression, and cursed loudly, "To hell with your peace! Do you have any idea how much you've held us up recently? If it wasn't for you..."
Before he could finish.
Dozens of machetes simultaneously pierced into the body of the Minotaur from every corner.
More Minotaur players quickly stepped forward to drag the corpse away and apologized to Li Yide with smiles, suggesting it was an accident.
"He had too much to drink."
The first Minotaur to speak wrapped his arm around Li Yide's shoulder and said earnestly, "He had too much, remembered an old TV show he used to watch, and got carried away with role-playing. Don't worry about this, brother; we'll sober him up."
"He'll be fine once he's sober."
"It's not about you."
"Sober him up?"
Li Yide looked bewilderedly at the dragged-away Minotaur corpse, sensing something was amiss, "Is this your special way of sobering up? He's probably never waking up again like this, right?"
"No, he'll sober up instantly in hell—the fastest way to come around."
"That makes sense..."
He didn't pay too much attention to the matter.
...
In the meantime, Chen Yi and Tuberculosis Rabbit were having a blast vacationing in Sky City over the past few days.
Shopping became Tuberculosis Rabbit and company's main theme.
They even bought a shopping mall.
"Deal."
Tuberculosis Rabbit looked at the Lisu Tribal Chief across the table with satisfaction, stood up, and collected the contract, "Then thank you for parting with this mall and selling it to us, honorable Chief of the Lisu Tribe."
To one side, the notary, seeing both parties had signed, stamped the document and announced loudly,
"On November 6th, the Lisu Tribe sold a six-floor shopping mall covering 60,000 square meters, located on the south street of Sky City, to Tuberculosis Rabbit for the price of 8.88 million Points. All Lisu merchants must vacate the mall within one day and may not remove any of the original scenery or decorations from the mall."
"The Chief of the Lisu Tribe is so generous,"
Tuberculosis Rabbit stood up, took the contract, and reached out first in a gesture of friendship, smiling, "To sell such a profitable mall to us for merely 8.88 million Points, you might be taking too much of a loss. It's not too late to back out now."
"I won't back out, won't back out."
Although the Chief of the Lisu Tribe's face was a mask of pain, his voice trembled as if he were about to cry, "As long as Yi can spare us, that'll be enough. The Sixfold Planet player Yi God encountered in that S-ranked map last time wasn't sought out by us intentionally; they forced our hand."
"We really had no choice."

"The father and son who bothered Mr. Tuberculosis Rabbit last time have been dealt with by us."
At this moment, his heart was bleeding, the pain was indescribable, but he had no other option.
What's done was done and it had to be handled this way.
These days, he had been trying to get Chief Li to contact Chen Yi, wanting at all costs to make reparations and resolve past misunderstandings, but he never received a reply. Then news came that Chen Yi was bringing players from all over the world to Awesome Starfield.
He was so frightened that he nearly fell off the toilet, cut off in midstream.
It was clear they were coming to annihilate his Tribe!!!
Learning that Tuberculosis Rabbit was preparing to buy a mall in Sky City, he hurriedly approached them, offering to give Chen Yi their tribe's mall for free just to earn his forgiveness.
According to market value, the mall with all its fixtures was worth at least 2 billion Points.
8.88 million Points was an absolute giveaway.
Most importantly, this mall was a major source of income for the Lisu Tribe; without it, they would have to cancel many plans for a long time due to a shortage of Points.
But there was nothing else to be done.
After all, they knew well the difference between losing a commercial seat and being annihilated.
Originally, their intention was to just give it directly to Chen Yi, but then Tuberculosis Rabbit insisted that they must offer money. He told them to name their price, arguing that it shouldn't appear to the outside world like they were plundering; it should seem like a fair transaction. At that time, they actually thought Tuberculosis Rabbit was serious.
So they tentatively offered 2 billion.
Then they saw Tuberculosis Rabbit opening his personal panel to contact Yi, and they got so scared they quickly changed their offer, hastily saying that there was a promotion going on and they would only ask for 880,000 Points.
Only then did Tuberculosis Rabbit's face regain its smile, and he added another 8 million Points to their offer, settling on a price of 8.88 million Points.
The deal was thus formally concluded.
...
In the following days, Tuberculosis Rabbit was incredibly busy, pulling together all the renovation teams in Sky City to undertake a massive renovation of the shopping center, influenced by monetary and fame capabilities.
In just one day, the appearance of the shopping center underwent a major transformation.
And the shopping center was given a new name:
"Yi God Paradise."
Furthermore, Tuberculosis Rabbit nagged Chen Yi into shuttling back and forth between Blue Star and Awesome Starfield, bringing back a vast amount of specialty products from Blue Star to display in the shopping center.
Tea, ceramics, silk etc., countless specialty products from Blue Star.
He also spent a fortune to commission a designer to create an artistic logo with the characters "Yi God," which was printed on every product, and all the products were priced exorbitantly.
The cheapest porcelain started at 88,000 Points.
And those were the kind produced by modern industrial processes.
It was all about luxury goods; there wasn't a single item in the entire shopping center that was good value for money.
...
Two days later, on November 9.
They had been in Awesome Starfield for about four or five days.
The shopping center began its trial operation.
An instant influx of people crowded the entire shopping center; in fact, during these days of renovation, nearly half of Awesome Starfield's population learned that Chen Yi had opened a shopping mall in Sky City selling special products from Blue Star.
There was no ribbon-cutting ceremony.
But Li Yi still shamelessly barged in, earnestly taking Tuberculosis Rabbit's hand and sincerely said, "I have always been especially enamored with Blue Star's culture, especially these ceramics. I must buy some for myself."
Then he looked at a piece of porcelain on the first floor, priced at 880,000 Points, and said seriously, "I'll take all the porcelain here, please fulfill this wish of your younger brother."
"This one?"
Tuberculosis Rabbit pretended to have a sudden realization and nodded, "It's clear to see Former Leader Li is someone who truly appreciates porcelain, but the pieces here are actually not valuable. Come with me to the fourth floor; the items there are more fitting for someone of Former Leader Li's stature."
Li Yi followed Tuberculosis Rabbit to the fourth floor in silence, looking slightly startled.
Soon, they reached the fourth floor.
"Here."
Tuberculosis Rabbit pointed to an exquisite piece of porcelain on a countertop on the fourth floor, his face showing satisfaction, and remarked, "Even in Blue Star, this kind of porcelain is extremely rare, only the very top-tier wealthy can afford to have it in their homes."
"It's priced at 188 million Points, non-negotiable."
"Well, Former Leader Li, do you like this piece?"
"..."
Li Yi looked at the porcelain on the countertop in front of him in a daze, and after a long moment of confusion, turned to Tuberculosis Rabbit and murmured unconsciously, "Am I allowed to like it?"
188 million Points, was it really that expensive?
It wasn't that he couldn't afford it, he just couldn't see why it was worth 188 million Points.
"Of course you can like it,"
Tuberculosis Rabbit seriously pointed to the porcelain and explained, "This piece has Yi's handwritten signature. Anyone who owns porcelain with Yi's signature will receive his protection."
"Ten pieces!"
"What do you mean?"
"I want ten pieces!"
Li Yi said sternly, raising one finger, "This porcelain is too exquisite. I want to buy ten to decorate my home. 1.88 billion for ten pieces of such exquisite porcelain, now that's a bargain, an absolute steal."
"Really?"
Tuberculosis Rabbit grinned meaningfully, "I knew Former Leader Li is someone who truly appreciates art."
