Chapter 903 More Shop Revamps

Of course, that was not all for the new Panda Street Instance. Scrapping the tabletop bar that Jin had been using for what felt like an eternity would have been a shame, so it merely moved elsewhere. (Where it went, was still a mystery to the cultivators and only Jin knew where it was.) The food that the System had provided previously had actually been turned into side stalls manned by the new Animal folks from the Giant World.

The System had chosen the animal folks who excelled in cooking from the various races such as Salamanders, Crocodiles to operate the street-side stalls, each selling one specific item from the System's menu.

From the random onigiris, the tonkatsu curry rice to the triple cheese pizza, each belonged to their new animal folks owners so that the System did not have to waste time creating them. And to the animal folks, they felt it was an honour to have such an important job as they were given full complete knowledge on how to create these dishes.

Thus, the streets were actually slightly wider than most perceived in order to accommodate the street side stalls and their tables. It brought back a little bit of nostalgic feeling especially to the older cultivators, and that was exactly what Jin was aiming for. A sense of familiarity and feeling of closeness among the NPCs, shopkeepers and also the cultivators. 

Wouldn't they be in direct competition with the current Shop Instances? Perhaps, but that was not Jin's concern as this happened to coincide Jin's objective to gather data ultimately for his Virtual Reality Network. And their current focus was on the crowd size of his customers and its interaction with his minions and his NPCs.

This is because with the Virtual Reality Network, crowds would be inevitable, and he needs to know whether the System can control the workload without breaking down. While Jin created the Open Island Instances with the System's workload handling in mind, the islands would still be filled with activities once launched. So, this particular Service Instance would serve as the fundamental foundation of the Virtual Reality Network.

As for the other shophouses, Vulcan, the master blacksmith had his very own two shophouses joined together. The services he provided were the same, but because of his metal smelting, Jin made sure his shophouses were soundproofed correctly, and the smoke did not affect the air quality of the instance despite it being strictly handled by the System. 

The Panda Muscles had three shophouses joined together, so there was enough place for all the equipment. Jin started to incorporate a few other sporting exercises inside such as Yoga, Dancing and even Kickboxing. As for the pools and running tracks, they were placed further away into the wilderness.

And one would realise, the end of the shophouses was actually a gate to the wilderness where the Restaurant Train would also depart to the various service instances within the Panda Street Instance.

As for the other end, it was actually facing a wide neverending ocean where Jin had placed a seaport and an airport further at the side of the Panda Street Instance. That was how the cultivators would be travelling to their various dungeon instances. This was a gimmick which also allowed Jin to do some events that could take place from the sea or via the aeroplanes. 

It would provide enough loading time for subsequent events, especially those emergency 'raid' instances when Jin might need help. But for now, the cultivators who had teleported in along with Jin found out there was already a giant ship with bright festive lights hanging around it. 

Pandas in old sailor uniforms were banging their gongs, blowing their trumpets and shooting firecrackers from the ship itself. Evidently, it was the highlight of the current Panda Street Instance despite people being shocked as if they were being teleported into a new world. 

Once again, Jin had released a new limited dungeon instance to coincide with the Chinese New Year Festival, and this one was called the Nian Dungeon Instance.

Most if not all the cultivators knew immediately what kind of dungeon instance it was since the monster, Nian had practically been a staple in all dungeon suppliers stores when it came to the New Year because of its significance of ushering the holidays in.

However, most of Jin's customers trusted that Jin's Nian would be different from other dungeon suppliers, especially after what they had seen and experienced from the Christmas Limited Dungeon Instance. The 'Devil Klaus' had been a major hit that even the influential Dungeon Supplier blogs and websites were talking about promising to check out what this promising dungeon supplier shop would come up with.

"Come come! Buy a ticket, and we will send you to the Dungeon where Nian has supposedly fled away to!" Mr Patsu now dressed in all traditional Chinese clothes did his job of advertising their latest dungeon.

But to everyone who had transported into this new fantasy Shop Instance, they were torn between going to the ship to try the new dungeon instance and seeing what kind of secrets the new Panda Street Instance might have to offer.

Obviously to those who wanted to watch the dungeons first before venturing forth, the large screen cinemas were still available, and they were in a major cinema theatre right at the centre of the Panda Street Instance before the road and railways split into two. (Since it was basically a roundabout ride around the entire instance before returning back to the main station.)

With the new revamp, the cultivators started to explore the whole place with much excitement. 

Jin also took this time to walk through the streets to make sure his NPC employees were working without any hitches since there were no 'human' workers around because of the Chinese New Year holiday.

He believed he might be one of the few non-essential shops that still remained open, giving rise to the number of customers coming in the morning for their usual routine. (Of course, they would be pleasantly shocked to see the new changes, or that is what Jin hoped.)
