Chapter 183 Rewards from the Ranking List
Chapter 183 Rewards from the Ranking List
At the same time, the entire country of China was in an uproar.
On the streets, in restaurants, and in every corner where crowds gather, countless people are looking down at their phones, their faces beaming with excitement.
"Number one! We are number one!"
"Our China is number one! Hahaha, it really is us!"
"It should have been like this a long time ago! Our strength should have been number one! We have been number one for thousands of years, and we will still be number one now!"
Excitement swept across the country like a tidal wave, and countless people felt an unprecedented surge of confidence and pride.
……
Although Zhang Chulan hadn't raised his head yet, he could already feel the gazes of everyone in the room.
"This has nothing to do with me, right...? This nameless person launching a binding isn't something I can control..."
Xu Si sighed, "We've really made a fool of ourselves this time... I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing."
If it were just a ranking list, Xu Si wouldn't be worried about any problems.
After all, a meaningless ranking list is no different from toilet paper.
Don't you see how foreigners always make up rankings, like world's greatest generals? Look at how their world's number one general, the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces, was beaten to a pulp on the Korean Peninsula.
But this did not prevent him from being voted the world's number one athlete at the time.
However, the list launched by Qin Le is not just a ranking list; it also includes tangible rewards.
Xu Si gasped as he looked at the rewards on the leaderboard.
"Really?! These are the rewards?!"
Qin Le's two leaderboards both have corresponding rewards, and the rewards for both leaderboards are distributed every six months. The first batch of rewards has already been distributed along with the launch of the leaderboards.
The rewards for the individual leaderboard are divided into two parts.
The first part involves distributing a corresponding number of Douyi coins based on the ranking of the extraordinary individuals on the list.
When Xu Si first saw this, he didn't think much of it, since Douyi coins could only be used to buy Awakening Pills, right?
No matter how much you give, it won't make a difference.
But when the second reward came out, Xu Si changed his mind.
The second part is to open different levels of the Douyi Mall to extraordinary individuals based on their ranking.
The first-place winner will have access to the Level 4 e-commerce platform, the second and third-place winners will have access to the Level 3 e-commerce platform, and the fourth to tenth-place winners will have access to the Level 2 e-commerce platform.
Xu Si immediately opened Douyi's system store, and the interface was completely different from the last time he entered!
First of all, there are no longer just Awakening Pills in the store; a large number of other items have been added.
Various elixirs, powerful magical artifacts, advanced cultivation techniques...
The mall has almost everything!
Xu Si even saw Gundam, a product that only exists in the world of science fiction!
Furthermore, the personal interface also shows the explanation of store application permissions. At this time, his store is a level one store, and there are no discounts on the purchase of items.
Level 2 stores enjoy a 10% discount, Level 3 stores enjoy a 20% discount, and Level 4 stores enjoy a 30% discount.
It's not just about price discounts; most of the premium items come with mall level access requirements!
Xu Si saw a pill called Longevity Pill in the level 2 store.
The more advanced shops also have a large number of magical pills and artifacts with miraculous effects! These are items that even Xu Si, with all his money, cannot buy.
What Xu Si cared about even more was the reward from the national rankings!
The rewards for the national rankings are similar to those for individuals, consisting of two parts: Douyin coins and store access.
However, unlike individual rewards, the rewards in the national rankings are exclusive to the nation!
Each country will be allocated a dedicated national store, and the right to use the store rests with the country's highest leader.
However, although the authority to use the store is in the hands of the leaders, people in all countries can see how the store is used.
There is an additional tab in the Douyi store that records the remaining amount of Douyi coins in the national store and their usage history.
They can also take this opportunity to see the goods in the national stores!
Unlike personal stores, items in national stores are extremely expensive, often requiring hundreds of thousands or even millions of Douyin coins.
But all the items inside are heavyweights!
Most of them are technology products or technologies, ranging from small items like new cars, airplanes, and aircraft carriers to technical data on spacecraft.
Any one of these materials could revolutionize current technology!
However, to everyone's surprise, although the national rankings distributed a batch of Douyi coins to each country's account, this amount was still far from enough to exchange for high-level items in the shop.
"Do we only have to wait for the rankings to be tallied up every six months for the advanced technologies in the shop? It'll take hundreds of years for Mom to collect them all before she can exchange them for a spaceship and fly into space!"
Just as people were complaining, they were surprised to find that the balance in the national account was slowly increasing. However, because the account balance was abbreviated on the homepage, the change in the value after the account number was not visible.
You can only see the increase in Douyin coins by clicking into the details page of the national account.
People who searched everywhere for the cause finally discovered the principle behind the increase: they found an explanation of the national account in the explanation of the personal account.
When citizens of each country make purchases in the online marketplace, 10% of the price of the goods will be added to the national account as a tax.
The person who discovered this immediately posted the rules online.
"Oh! Doesn't that mean the more things I buy, the richer the country will be?"
Of course, what people didn't know was that this portion of Douyi currency, which served as tax, was paid extra by them themselves; Qin Le had already added the necessary fees when setting the prices of the goods.
As this discovery spread, public sentiment across China was reignited.
Unlike the excitement in China, the leaders of some smaller countries looked rather grim.
They looked at the near-zero balance in their country's accounts, and the extremely slow rate of increase.
Looking at all the powerful technologies in the store, it's simply impossible to afford them!
The country's population limited their access to the market, making the country's shopping mall virtually irrelevant to them.
In some countries, this rule has even generated negative and opposing sentiments!
"Why should I be taxed?! I demand its abolition! I refuse to pay taxes to my country!"
"If my country doesn't love me, why should I love my country?"
The young people in South Korea, in particular, reacted the most strongly!
Having lived under the oppression of conglomerates since childhood, they have a natural distrust of the government.
They would rather self-destruct than drag the country down with them.
They even launched a boycott campaign online to prevent the government from taking advantage of them.
