Blackstone Code

For capitalists, real currency and virtual currency are actually not important.

What matters is currency.

And having more currency in their hands brings them a sense of superiority in social class. This is the most important thing.

Of course, not all capitalists want to open up new markets in the virtual world, but they have no choice but to do so.

According to the mathematical model given by Aurora, as the "New World" gradually stabilizes, more and more people will enter the new world.

The fewer people there are in the real world, the more the market will shrink. No one will buy the goods produced, and there will be no consumers. These capitalists can only continue to suffer losses until they go bankrupt.

Because they need to pay workers, even if the factory is not working, they still need to pay for various maintenance losses, which is money.

Lynch also gave them another way——

Go explore the universe.

Although there will be fewer people in the real world, the real world will not be abandoned, because this is the foundation of everything!

Whether they form a group to open up wasteland on alien planets, or initiate exploration of alien planets or galaxies in the future, this is all possible, all allowed, and there are huge benefits.

Lynch personally advertised "New World", which attracted more people's attention to the virtual world and made related topics quickly become more popular.

The peculiarity of the Internet era lies here, the traffic becomes visible to the naked eye!

In the past, the so-called "traffic" for the media was exposure. When we published an article, how many people bought it would mean how much exposure it would have.

Or the news we broadcast will have as much exposure as the ratings it has.

This kind of exposure is a number that is not easy to calculate and cannot be precise. Many times you don’t know whether the number fed back is reasonable or true.

But now, after exposure is converted into traffic, it is easier to calculate.

It’s not that the algorithm has been improved, but that advances in science and technology allow every Internet user to leave traces on the Internet.

More than 400 million people, hundreds of billions of visits, everything tells people that the rise of "New World" is unstoppable.

After more people entered the virtual world, the evolution speed of Aurora's chaos code also increased significantly.

In just one week, more than nine percent of its core code was replaced by chaos code.

The code was no longer readable due to the large and constantly jumping characters. Scientists tried to back it up for Aurora, but all attempts failed.

When they saved the Chaos Code to another hard drive, those jumping characters lost their spirituality the moment it entered the hard drive.

The independent Aurora replica has no appearance of artificial intelligence at all. It still looks like an artificial retard. It will answer questions that are not too complicated in fact with answers that make people laugh or cry.

Aurora's chaos code is not replicable, it is special and unique.

Millions of newbies poured into the server, and the server's computing power once again received an unprecedented increase. More mental power was connected to the mental network. Lynch had never felt so good.

During the month-long test, some minor problems were discovered. These problems did not seem to be particularly serious. For example, someone found a floating stone.

In a world full of magic, it is obviously not weird for a stone to float, but the existence of this stone is not a simple matter.

For an artificial intelligence that is almost perfect and cannot find any errors or loopholes, every error found is actually a serious problem.

After more than a hundred bugs and issues have been fixed, "New World" will be fully open to humans!

On the first day alone, more than 50 million people logged into the virtual world.

Those others haven't been able to log into the virtual world simply because they haven't gotten their hands on a brain-computer device.

The real world is so real that people ignore the fact that it is virtual. Many people are beginning to understand why some people are unwilling to leave after entering the virtual world!

There is no suffering from illness, even if there is an accident, you can be reborn, and everything obtained through labor here can be exchanged for cash.

There seems to be no better world than this, especially for lower- and middle-class workers.

The lack of mechanized equipment allows the most primitive labor force to occupy the most important position. Whether they are capitalists or careerists, they all need manpower and population!

Especially in the past few days, there have been rumors that Connor plans to build a city, which has caused many people's thoughts to change rapidly!

Connor planned to strive for hegemony in this world. He found the governor of his province and planned to bribe the governor with a thousand gold coins to become the ruler of a city.

But the governor rejected his request, or thought the price he offered was too low.

Simply using one thousand gold coins to do this would definitely be enough, but what was not enough was that Connor was still a free citizen.

From an official point of view, a freeman is an untouchable. He is not even a citizen and cannot become the ruler of a city.

And if you want to join the ruling class, you must first become an imperial noble, even the lowest baron.

But at present, the title of a baron in the empire requires at least 20,000 gold coins, and it may not be successful.

The governor asked him to either pay money or make contributions to the empire. He was unwilling to take either of these two paths. He planned to build a small town in time.

The core of this news was not what he was going to do, but that he was about to hire a large number of workers to work. This was a job opportunity!

Some other forces were also actively preparing for these things. Capitalists, the ruling class, and the privileged class always saw more deeply than ordinary people.

Ordinary people may still be amazed at the fact that Connor was going to spend hundreds of millions to build a city, but they ignored how much he could get from it if he could really build a city or even conquer a piece of territory.

The overly astonishing expenditure obscured the vision of ordinary people, which was also the reason why many ordinary people complained that they had no opportunities.

It was not that the opportunities did not appear in front of them, but that they could not find these opportunities at all because of their own reasons.

Aurora even made a new patch for the "Hegemony" that was opened in advance, that is, the death penalty mechanism.

This is to prevent high-powered superior horses from killing a large number of inferior horses of other forces in a suicidal attack.

In the faction war, the resurrection time after the death of high-powered people will be extended, and a price will also be paid, such as lowering the level and deducting some fees.

It will be announced when the war between the forces is about to break out.

This day will not be too far away.

Many people in the real world have also begun to pay attention to these, and many factories are on the verge of stopping work and production.

They recruit new workers while keeping a wait-and-see attitude towards the "New World".

Ordinary people need an opportunity to enter the "New World", and capitalists need it too!

In mid-to-late July, the first factory in the virtual world was born, a factory that produces weapons and armor.

Mr. Wardrick followed Lynch's arrangement and opened a factory directly in the virtual world, employing more than 5,000 employees.

Although the production technology here is backward, there are also some very convenient magic or other things, which does not leave people with no way out.

And if advanced methods cannot be used, there are always local methods.

The new factory produces cold weapons and hard armor. At the beginning of production, Connor found them and ordered 10,000 sets of equipment. The price of each set is between 2,200 and 2,500 yuan.

This price is definitely not cheap, and Mr. Wardrick also has enough profit.

Someone has calculated for this deal that 10,000 sets of equipment can get at least 22 million in book revenue.

Based on the calculation of 260 yuan per person per month, the monthly salary of 5,000 people is only 1.3 million, and this batch of goods will take about three to four months to produce.

That is to say, after deducting the salary, about 18 million, and deducting the cost and other expenses, Mr. Wardrick's net profit is about 7 million to 8 million.

This is more profitable than most factories in reality!

And from the news that people have heard from some channels at present, these weapons and armor are consumables.

They will not become brand new just because the blacksmith says "I have repaired the equipment for you". The almost completely real material environment makes these equipment extremely easy to wear out in war.

Once Connor starts to fight, there will be a large demand for materials, and tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of profits can be distributed to upstream and downstream companies!

A few years ago, when federal lemons were expensive, a group of fruit farmers went to grow lemons, resulting in a sharp drop in lemon prices.

Then the price of apples went up again. The fruit farmers who lost money on lemons all went to grow apples. As a result, because there were too many people growing apples, they could only barely break even.

The same is true for capital. Maybe people were not very enthusiastic at the beginning and did not know enough about the market in the virtual world.

But after Mr. Wardrick taught them a vivid lesson, a large number of capitalists and companies began to appear in the virtual world.

Some raised war horses, and some raised edible livestock such as cattle and sheep.

It is worth mentioning that because the virtual world has a very real "taste", almost all the middle and lower classes will eat in the virtual world!

They fill their stomachs casually in the real world to prevent themselves from being hungry, and then come to the virtual world to enjoy the food.

The feeling of eating meat makes many people who step into the virtual world excited to tears!

This has also become one of the reasons why they are reluctant to leave here!
