The first Internet cafe appeared in Shanghai in May 1996.

The high Internet fee of 40 yuan per hour did not stop people from exploring new things. You must know that the national average monthly salary was only about 500 yuan at that time.

In the following years, Internet cafes sprouted up all over the country, and the Internet cafe industry developed rapidly.

In this remote small county, three Internet cafes were opened in 2000, namely Sun God Internet Cafe, New Century Internet Cafe and Pentium Internet Cafe, which are distributed in the county in a tripartite manner.

As the latest one to open, Pentium Internet Cafe opened by Chen Hao's family is the largest and has the best configuration, so its business is better than the other two.

When Chen Hao walked out of the alley, he found that the fight had come to an end.

There are 6 people in total, and there are 5 in one group, but from the scene, it is 1V5 to be precise, with 1 standing and 5 lying down.

Good guy, spray it with Q!

A young man in his twenties stood on the spot. He was about 1.8 meters tall, tall and strong, with a pair of impressive narrow red eyes. He was not wearing a down jacket on his upper body, only a sweater, and his looming muscles were sharp and angular. In the cold

In the weather, due to the violent activities, there was white mist all over the body.

"Old Ban, are you done? I bought you breakfast." Chen Hao was already satisfied with the strangeness and pointed at the young man, mentioning the steamed buns and soy milk he bought along the way.

Seeing Chen Hao, the outstanding young man smiled at him and said, "You go up first, and I'll finish."

"Well, I'll go up and watch first, and come back when I'm done~"

The young man nodded, indicating that he understood.

The folk customs in the Northeast are fierce, and it is not uncommon to get into fights over disagreements. The most outrageous phrase is, "What are you looking at?"

Chen Hao is not surprised that something like this will happen in the store every one or two months.

But fortunately, it can be dealt with even if there are old spots.

Lao Ban, whose name is Pang Ban, has a very martial name. Both his parents died. He grew up with a blind master. He learned Baji and Phi for more than ten years. When he grew up, he served as a soldier for several years. Unknown to him, he committed a crime during this period.

What happened? I was just released from prison last year.

At the beginning of the century, no one looked down upon a prisoner who came out of the labor camp. He encountered obstacles everywhere, and finally became a network administrator in his family.

His father told him all this. According to him, when he was looking for network administrators, he found several but were not satisfied. Then Pang Ban came. His father felt that this child looked quite honest, not a few years older than him, and was quite pitiful.

, especially if you have served as a soldier.

Later, Chen Hao found out that it was because others charged 600 a month, but Old Spot only paid 400 a month, including food and accommodation.

As a result, later observations revealed that the young man recruited by 400 was quick to pick up the game. He made Internet cafes his home and never went anywhere. He was the boss of two people, which is quite reliable.

Even if there is a fight, even if there is a fight, no matter how many people are on the other side, it will be solved directly downstairs without any nonsense, and there will be no further trouble.

The father, who had a hard time with his conscience, raised Lao Ban's salary to 800 yuan per month in the third month, which was considered a lot at the time.

Both parents died? A retired soldier becomes a network administrator. This plot direction makes Lao Ban the protagonist.

Hiss!

Chen Hao took a breath.

Now that he has re-evaluated this guy's potential from the perspective of someone who has experienced it, Chen Hao has already planned the composition of the small team.

"Brother Hao, get off the plane on the 23rd."

A teenage boy came over to pay after playing, interrupting Chen Hao's thoughts.

Looking at the thick accounting book, I found the boarding time on the 23rd. Oh, the boarding players, turned to look at the time on the wall: 8:37.

"It's 37 minutes overtime. I'll give you half an hour and give you another RMB 1."

Take the dollar handed over by the other party, take out a pen and cross out this line of record.

Take out the key, open the cash box, and put the money in.

Looking at the various fourth edition banknotes inside, including the maroon one yuan, and the dark green two yuan that never appeared again, Chen Hao felt a little emotional. In more than ten years, he would have nothing but a mobile phone in his pocket.

I even threw away my wallet.

"Go back and rest early. Your health is the most important, everything else is useless!" Chen Hao advised casually.

The kid who got off the plane had a ghostly expression on his face, "Brother Hao, you stay up all night much more frequently than me. How can you say this from your mouth?"

"Uh..." Chen Hao touched his nose.

With the help of the heater, the temperature in the room was more than 20 degrees. After staying there for a while, the heat became unbearable. Chen Hao took off his down jacket and put it aside. He picked up a pen and accounting book and walked around the field, counting yesterday's statistics.

The God of War who continues to fight after staying up all night.

The Internet cafe is not big, only about 80 square meters in total, with thirty computers neatly placed in rows. In order to make more money, there are no computers at the bar at the door.

Legend was born in the second half of 2001, directly occupying most of the world of online games. It has a classic combat profession and an eternal upgraded treasure hunting PK theme. As soon as it appeared, it directly beat the previous established online games such as Red Moon, King of Kings, and Millennium to death.

On the beach.

Relying on the legendary grandness of being an agent, Yiwu became an online game giant at that time, and enjoyed great success for a while.

This is the season when legends are very popular. Most of the people in the Internet cafes are playing legends. The remaining few are playing interstellar, some are cooperating with CS, oh? There is also one who is playing Jin Yong's Legend of Heroes (stand-alone,

Not the OL kind).

Watching the young man in front of me anxiously pressing the direction keys on the keyboard, the little shrimps were scurrying around like headless flies in the black pond.

Chen Hao couldn't bear it, "You can't get out of Black Dragon Pond by walking like this."

After speaking, he leaned down and pressed the direction keys rhythmically on the keyboard. In less than a minute, he walked out of the Black Dragon Pond and saw Ying Gu.

There was no dialogue, but he turned around and walked out again, arriving at the starting point.

"Okay, you can play by yourself."

"???" The young man looked confused. He's not a big brother. You're like a tiger, and then you go back. Are you kidding me~

Chen Hao made a little joke and quickly wrote down a series of formulas before the other party became angry.

Tear it open and hand him a piece of paper.

"Don't move even once you enter the Black Dragon Pond. Follow this formula and you will be able to enter!"

Left 8→Top 2→Right 1→Top 3→Left 3→....

Before leaving, Chen Hao said, "Remember to practice wild ball boxing to level ten!"

The young man asked in confusion, "The damage done by Wild Ball Boxing is so rubbish."

"This is indeed the case for the first nine levels!"

"What about the tenth level?"

"Invincible!" After saying that, Chen Hao waved his sleeves and left, followed by the admiring eyes of the spirited young man.

He practiced Wild Ball Boxing from scratch to level 10, and it took him at least nearly 5 hours to get the basics without fighting left and right. This can be regarded as a disguised increase in income for his own business.

Seeing that Lao Ban had come back, Chen Hao handed over the accounting book and handed it over. Seeing that the other person's hands were a little red, he hurriedly asked: "Are you okay?"

Pang Ban raised his hand and shook his head at the other party, indicating that it was okay.

"I'm asking them..."

"...hospital."

"What happened just now?"

"I want to make trouble and default on my debt."

It seems to be a wandering gang, otherwise you would have heard of Pentium's reputation as the leader, and they don't step in first when making trouble. These guys have no professionalism at all.

Accustomed to treating old spots like gold, Chen Hao rubbed his chin, "What next?"

"No worries," Pang Ban took out a bunch of crumpled money from his pocket again, "keyboard money." It was just a lot more, flattened it and put it in the cash drawer.

"You don't see many young people these days who have to pay compensation for damaged things! I left the breakfast there. You go ahead and rest for a while, and I'll take care of it."

Pang Dian nodded.

There were still a few machines available in the morning, so Chen Hao picked the one closest to the door and turned it on.

"Network management, the computer is not moving."

Chen Hao didn't even turn around and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Press ALT F4. If it doesn't work, restart it. Don't press the big one, press the small button on the chassis."

After waiting for a while, there was no movement, so it seemed like it was done.

After turning on the computer, Chen Hao opened Baidu and searched for the information he wanted, including Tianya, Maopu and other major portal communities and forums.

Half an hour later, Chen Hao looked puzzled.

There was no clue at all. He remembered that he came in 2002, but he didn't remember the month.

Has the legendary private server not been released yet?

A text message interrupted his thoughts. He picked up his phone and clicked on it. Chen Hao was happy.

"Want to know the secret of your mobile phone number? Reply to xxx to find out the answer! (Reply to this text message is free)"

Spam text messages will not be answered!

After a while, the text message alert sounded again.

Hey, it’s not over yet. Is this a woolen pile?

Click to open, oh misunderstanding!

"Where is it?" The person who sent the text message was Chen Hao's best friend from the time when he had crotchless pants to now, a kid from another family, a self-disciplined boy...Xu Pengkun.
Chapter completed!
