“hehe!” lao yao could only laugh foolishly.

at this moment, meng di burst out laughing. he stretched out his hand and wiped off a grain of rice from the corner of lao yao’s mouth. she even said, “is it really that delicious? look at how hasty you are…”

this intimate action stunned lao yao…

meng di immediately understood that her actions were inappropriate. her face turned red again. for a moment, the two of them were so embarrassed that they could not find anything to say.

in the living room, there was a flirtatious aura that made lao yao’s cold heart eager to give it a try.

“well… didi!” lao yao tried to break the silence. “in the future, you should just call me lao yao. calling me mr. landlord is too distant…”

“okay…” meng di’s face was red, and her head was almost hanging down to her chest. she only responded in a low voice.

lao yao scratched his head. he did not know what to talk about. it was as if at this moment, meng di had returned to being the introverted and shy girl.

fortunately, at this moment, someone came to the rescue. the door lock of the room rang, and the girls in the studio finally went offline.

“hey! uncle lao yao! why are you in the living room with didi?” as soon as ning jing came out, her intuition told her that something was wrong. there seemed to be a different atmosphere lingering in the living room, so she looked at lao yao fiercely and asked, “tell me! did you do something to our didi?!”

“no!?” lao yao spread his hands innocently. “i’m just hungry. didi made night snacks for me first!”

“is that really the case?” ning jing still looked at lao yao suspiciously, but she couldn’t find any flaws. after all, the empty bowl that lao yao was eating from was placed on the table.

“i… i’ll make night snacks for you!” didi couldn’t stand ning jing looking at the “adulterer” and quickly got up to the kitchen.

“there’s a problem! there’s definitely a problem!” ning jing shouted in her heart, but she couldn’t say anything. she could only sit down angrily.

“alright, jingjing, let’s get down to business!” although yang yongle was talking to ning jing, he looked at lao yao meaningfully, making lao yao’s hair stand on end.

“landlord… i’ll call you lao yao!” yang yongle sat down opposite lao yao and placed a document in front of him. “since you’ve joined our studio, according to the rules, we still have to sign a contract with you and discuss your treatment.”

“hehe! finally…” lao yao scratched his head and laughed, making yang yongle feel a little embarrassed.

however, lao yao had no intention of hurting yang yongle. he took the contract over and signed it without even looking at it. then, he pushed it back to yang yongle.

“aren’t you going to take a look?” yang yongle asked in surprise.

“no need, i believe you!” lao yao’s words touched yang yongle.

“well, i’ll tell you about it!” yang yongle paused for a moment and said, “although our studio is not famous and not very formal, we still have the business processes that we should have. the sisters in the studio are all the same. the base salary and commission. since you’ve joined the studio, you’ll follow this plan.”

at this point, yang yongle looked apologetic and said, “however, you also know that our studio’s profit is not very good now, so we can’t give you too high a base salary…”

lao yao didn’t care about the base salary and didn’t argue with yang yongle about it. instead, he asked curiously, “i want to know, how did you guys do business in the game in the past?”

“most of the businesses are similar to other studios!” yang yongle explained. “however, because our studio is special, our focus is a little different. in the two games that we’ve entered in the past, we basically focused on life professions to maintain our expenses.”

in the ensuing detailed questioning, lao yao roughly understood the business of the studio.

just as yang yongle had said, it was impossible for a studio formed by a group of girls to fight with others. however, girls had their own characteristics. they were meticulous, patient, and knew how to persevere. therefore, they had always been ahead in life professions. for example, in the previous two games, the girls in the studio had actually made a small profit by selling potions, equipment, weapons, accessories, and so on. it could be considered an impressive result.

most games were like this. they would earn coins in the game and sell them on the platform. in the end, they would turn into profits. some would directly sell equipment for real-life money.

of course, there were also other businesses, such as bringing people to level up, helping people pass missions, doing players’ bounty missions, accepting pk missions, and so on. these were all businesses that the studio had, but silver maple leaf studio did not really accept such businesses.

oh, that’s right. the studio had a more unique business. it was to accept official commissions from the game company and help them write some articles. the game company would publish them on the official website or game website and they could earn manuscript fees. it was considered a good business.

the people in charge of this business were three studio girls with good writing skills. one was called yin ya, one was called su hui, and the last was called wen ting. lao yao remembered their game nicknames. when he added them as friends, he still had an impression of them. they were maple leaf yaya, maple leaf susu, and maple leaf wenwen. according to yang yongle, their names were quite famous on some game websites.

as for the three girls in the studio who were mainly in charge of collecting information, they were zhang qi, wei xiaoqian, and zeng mengli. their main job was to organize the game information from the official website or the forum and filter out information that was beneficial to the studio or could be used. in addition, they had to play the game, so the workload was quite heavy.

finally, there were the two girls in charge of finance, jiang yu and yang huan. including yang yongle, ning jing, wang ke, and meng di, who was in charge of logistics, there were twelve girls in the studio.

as for yang yongle, ning jing, and wang ke, their job was naturally to protect the safety of the girls in the studio. of course, this safety mainly referred to the game. the three of them had the best game operation in the studio, so their mission was to maintain a level advantage to ensure that the girls in the studio could fight back when they were bullied. although the girls rarely had conflicts with others, they could not rule out the possibility that some despicable people might kill people randomly. with such a main team, it was very important in the game.
