Jiang Yuan perked up immediately, "Now we're getting to the good part, tell me more!"
"Did you see that cluster of poop-yellow buildings? That area is called Jinxiu Li, and there's a quite large and luxurious internet café in that district. The owner, Qi Deqiang, is a real piece of work!"
Wu Yegen curled his lips and said disdainfully, "Instead of focusing on properly operating the café and attracting customers to boost revenue, when business is bad, he resorts to other tactics—like hiring game grinders. Hey, do you know what game grinding is?"
This term has a bit of history. Jiang Yuan remembered that when he was in college, quite a few classmates would do game grinding part-time.
It's basically hustling in online games and then selling gold coins or valuable equipment, which can then be exchanged for RMB at a certain rate.
