Interstellar Travel: Becoming a Dress-Up Game Designer

Chapter 324

Most houses in the Qingfengyi Huaxia Jianghu, Yuanxiao Street, and the main city area are available for rent. These houses belong to NPCs, so you can usually negotiate a deal with them. This plant enthusiast player rented his exhibition hall courtyard from an elderly couple.

The elderly couple originally grew vegetables at the foot of the mountain and built a simple tea shed outside their courtyard to receive passing travelers and earn a meager living. When this player came to buy, they sold the tea shed immediately, and the player even hired them as staff to clean and take care of the courtyard.

The courtyard was beautifully decorated, with a huge lion at the entrance and pine and ginkgo trees planted beside it. However, the pine and ginkgo trees were specimens, as Qingfengyi hadn't considered that players might like these things. Therefore, there weren't many plants that could be collected from the wild and planted; most were only interactive during events. If a player used a withdrawal token to withdraw cash, it would become a material, and since it was a material, it wasn't the original plant. This material could also be made into specimens.

This player must be incredibly wealthy; otherwise, he would have hesitated for a long time just to buy enough tokens to withdraw a few ginkgo and pine trees. Moreover, he withdrew so many plants, and some of the more attractive ones weren't even one type.

Another advantage of the tree that can be cashed out is that it remains in its original state. Since it was liked and people wanted to cash out it, it means that the plant was really, really beautiful back then.

The ginkgo tree at the entrance looks to be at least a thousand years old, with lush branches covered in golden leaves. The player also mentioned the surrounding leaves. Now, the arrangement is so outrageous that, based on the videos and photos taken at the time, every single leaf has been restored to its original position.

The players who came to visit were dazzled; it was absolutely gorgeous!

A tree shimmered with golden light, like a star in its prime, gentle yet powerful. Though there was no light, it seemed to illuminate the entire world; when the leaves fluttered down in the breeze, you could almost hear the sound of light.

It's strange, really. Light is clearly a spectrum of colors, but when you see gold and white, it seems to sparkle. It's as if all other colors are overshadowed by the light, leaving only gold and white to perfectly capture its essence. A tree full of golden ginkgo leaves is like that, its brilliance warming you to the touch.

Beneath the ginkgo tree lay a twin sapling, bent over and about two meters above the ground, lying there like a small boat. Behind it lay the largest lake in China's Jianghu region, reflecting the beautiful blue sky and white clouds—it was breathtaking. The tourists immediately asked if they could take photos and videos there.

Just imagining it makes me feel the joy of flowing clothes, soft hair, and a smiling face.

Spring waves reflect the mirror-like surface as white clouds drift by; the yellow apricots herald the belated arrival of autumn.

I dreamt of wandering in a fairyland in the heavens, but in reality, I was sleeping peacefully under a tree.

The owner of the exhibition hall was naturally willing, but it cost money, hehe. Taking a photo cost fifty coins, while filming a video cost one tael of silver for half an hour.

In terms of money, most players of Qingfengyi follow the same path, occasionally making a small profit. The main focus is on happiness and no pressure; isn't it great that everyone enjoys what they love just like them? Is there anything happier than that?

True friends are hard to find, so cherish those who are.

Not to mention that these few ginkgo trees have become incredibly popular in the interstellar world at an extraordinary speed, the scenery inside is equally impressive.

Inside was a small vegetable garden planted with many chrysanthemums, all of which the player had found in the wild. While they weren't particularly beautiful, they had a lovely feel to them—lush green with sparse, tiny blossoms. On the other side were chrysanthemums grown from seeds sold in the shop; there were many varieties, and they were blooming profusely.

Beyond two chrysanthemum fields were four maple trees—three small and one exceptionally large. This was an extremely valuable item, which the player had found by chance on a saddle in a previous "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" dungeon. Coincidentally, it was autumn then, and the trees were ablaze with red, a breathtaking sight. There was a vast expanse of maple trees there, the ground covered in red leaves, rustling underfoot, and releasing a refreshing fragrance.

I even felt like taking all the maple trees here home with me.

Unfortunately, I ran out of withdrawal tokens, and Qingfengyi's in-game store system is very realistic; you can only access it in the main city, player's home, or the main store. It can't be accessed in dungeons, probably to prevent some players from using the trading function to disrupt game balance?

But Qingfengyi doesn't have this function either, right?

So he could only find the most beautiful few maple trees in a maple forest and take them with him.

Going back is impossible. That instance wasn't something you could just enter and exit randomly; it was an encounter by chance, and who knows what you'd encounter? You could only enter the same instance if you were extremely lucky.

After this player came out, he searched for a long time, but no one had withdrawn maple trees, so there was nowhere to buy them.

Maple trees are the second flower of autumn, the first being the chrysanthemum. This particular maple tree was especially well-chosen, just as autumn arrived, its green, yellow, and red hues intermingling in a vibrant and dazzling display. The sun shone on its leaves, making them shimmer, and as the wind blew, countless shattered stars seemed to fall into one's eyes.

The ground was carpeted with maple leaves, their beauty no less striking than that of ginkgo leaves, and the sound they made in the wind was equally enchanting. So, at the time, I was willing to forgo the opportunity to grow several more trees to collect enough leaves to cover the ground where maple trees were planted. His home had so many plants and furniture that he had planted ginkgo and maple trees together on the lawn, creating a beautiful and harmonious scene. Having to separate them in this exhibition hall diminished their aesthetic appeal considerably.

Visitors loved it, lining up to take photos, wishing there was no one around so they could spend the whole day taking pictures alone or with a few friends. The photos turned out incredibly well, absolutely stunning.

Many dress-up enthusiasts fall in love with this place instantly.

Take out your costumes and props and set them up.

I specifically wait for the morning, afternoon, or evening when the sun isn't shining directly and the light is gentle, making it especially suitable for taking photos. I change into my beautiful clothes, look at the camera, and smile slightly.

Many bloggers are still lying on leaves and trees. Some have even buried themselves in leaves, like tree spirits emerging from the leaf pile after being disturbed. These photos are stunning; those taken by people with great fashion sense look like they've ascended to heaven.

Continuing further in, vines like honeysuckle and silver jasmine appear, blooming profusely. They are all at their peak, carefully twining around the railings. Nearby, roses seem to have fallen from the upper floor, their fragrance intoxicating, and butterflies flutter about.

The butterflies were also on display, though not many varieties: small yellow butterflies, white butterflies, and swallowtail butterflies. Visitors who spotted them exclaimed in surprise and quickly followed. The butterflies, startled, flew higher and higher; their beautiful forms were irresistible.
