Chapter 890 More Red Packets?!
Everyone was messy and noisy but equally excited by the amount of goodwill Jin had shown them. They decided to prolong dinner for a bit more. Being a cultivator allowed one to control their food consumption.
While it was generally used to slow it down, it was also possible to quicken it. That way, the stored energy could later be used for long periods of cultivation if needed. Thus, every one of them enhanced their speed of digestion to make room for a 'second' round of servings. (Jin had lost count on how many times they had repeated this process and although the System had that exact number, he would rather not know.)
With this latest round of dinner, Jin chose to share his vision for the future of Dungeons and Pandas. Most of them were astounded by Jin's new approach, but Pei did appreciate that her master understood the concerns of how the dungeons could lead to unforeseen consequences in their current society.
This was especially true since cultivation was not easily obtained especially in peace times, making it an indicator for position and power within the country. An extraordinary catalyst like Jin's dungeons meant he would be targeted by every powerful organisation, whether they are good or evil.

His encounter with the Ruby Rat had shown as much. It wasn't surprising why most dungeon supplier stores were part of a larger group. (Though most parts of the reason were due to the cost of maintaining the dungeon instance servers.)
That was why Jin owning the entire Tiangong shopping district allowed him some flexibility when it came to store management and future expansion. For example, he could use the land of his old store to create the new upcoming Panda Inc to support the Virtual Reality Network on a long term basis.
"This sounds like a big endeavour to take on...but if you do it right, we will no doubt prosper and eventually even enter into Forbes Top 3." Qiu Yue shared her thoughts on the matter, and Jin laughed.
"You are clearly joking, right? I do not think that is entirely possible." Jin had never considered the consequences to that degree.
"You see, if we play our cards right, this VR network could be used as more than a game. You already plan to create a virtual reality, but it could also be used to conduct business meetings, encrypted ones for sure and even used for education. Not just in terms of cultivation but literally anything from learning how to cook fried rice to learning how to kill someone."
"That, I got to agree. And with the power to create within their own VR space, which I assume that's one of the eventualities, this will allow humanity to have an online living community. With exclusive rights to your own technology... Trust me, that equals shit loads of potential markets that could come out of this. Those VR goggles? Man, those are crap stuff. I believe Boss Jin will create something akin to an alternate reality." Claire also voiced her approving opinion.
"And unlike an authentic 'virtual' reality, ours seems more to be intended as augmented virtual reality, right? Just transferring the souls in and they are digitally physical enough to do stuff and experience with their given senses, correct?" Lynn asked for clarification.
"Hopefully. Because that should guarantee that no spiritual powers will influence them. What they fight will still be real because of the digital to physical conversion by our dungeon instance technology. That is why I said their participation in our dungeon instances is already akin to that. What we are selling will be merely the permission key to enter our doors while maintaining their physical body in place. That way, they cannot take in the spiritual power because of the loophole in dungeon instance technology but still have a wonderful experience."
"And we can maintain the illusion that we are doing a virtual reality stunt. That's awfully deceptive while making sure to keep the System hidden. Didn't think you could come up with such a clever scheme. I am looking forward to you having more of those in the future." Kraft gave a thumbs up for the entirely new direction Jin was taking.
"Still, there is much to do." Jin sighed and consciously stopped himself. He was afraid that the casual announcement would become a business discussion meeting. "…Let's get back to it, after this." Jin pulled out more red packets.

"Hahaha! The ones I hold are technically for Zeru...and since I am the Master of the Panda Clan, I have obligations to give Hou Fei. As for those Demon Exorcist kids, they did a great job so as the boss, I need to give them too...assuming they completed their assignments in designing the advanced training centre for me. But in any case,?I will have to give it to them later in the day. As for now, I was actually going to visit each and every room in the Hotpot Service Instance to personally convey my thanks to all the hard-working minions." Jin remarked, and everyone pretended to be bewildered by Jin's deeds to the point the Dungeon Supplier was getting annoyed that they were so sarcastic in their response.
"I think that's an excellent idea. Everyone will be happy if the Boss comes to meet them personally to give them their red packet bonuses like you did for us, only… do you plan to do that every time from now on?" Pei cautioned whether he would be able to continue to do that in the future.
"I agree, have you taken a look at how large their numbers have grown? Don't you think it's more efficient to ask your minions to come to you instead? I mean, of course, there's sincerity for you to personally give your red packets, but that will take a heck lot of time." Qiu Yue added. Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/\bin/\
"Although it might seem a little insincere, at the very least you will set a precedence on how you give out your red packets in the future. Imagine if you have another ten of thousands of 'employees' under you or let's think big, a hundred thousand employees. Are you still going to have time to give each and every one of them?" Claire concurred with Qiu Yue.
"Actually, User did consider such circumstances and had already created something to aid in the distribution. However, User eventually felt embarrassed and decided against using it. System once more recommends to use it rather than waste its resources and time teleporting around to give his employees their profits." The System stated, and everyone could feel that Jin was dying for a hole in the ground to disappear in.
"Alright, fine! I shall use that. But…don't you dare laugh at me! Or… or next year there will be NO BONUS!" Jin threatened as he kept the red packets and told the System to make the announcement to everyone while requesting for a teleport to yet another temporary service.
