Starting from Zero

Technical transformation is not something that can be accomplished in a day or two, and we can only hope that the researchers at the Association can think of solutions.

Xiu Luo Ziyi walked to me and said, "I'm going to Clark to make a guild badge and various signs. Is there anything I need to deal with?"

有 "Yes! I happen to have something for Clark to help. Do you know the characteristics of NPC equipment?"

Wu Xiulao said: "I asked about NPC equipment a few days ago."

"what's the result?"

"There are two types of NPC equipment. One is called special equipment. This type of equipment can only be worn by NPCs, and the other is called general equipment. Like us, these are general equipment. That means that players can use NPC equipment. Yes, but NPC equipment players may not be able to use it. "

"Can Clark build NPC gear?"

"Yes."

"Go and tell Clark to ask him to help build the Temple Guard's equipment. I will be responsible for the cost. Also, help me order a few of these." I asked Scot to give the equipment to Shura Purple. "My demon servant isn't equipped enough right now. You have Clark make 10 sets like this."

"I'll go first then."

恩 "Well! You go."

I left the port after the Shura Ziyi left. The guild is now quite reasonable, and I do n’t have much to do. In the next few days, everyone was busy with the construction of the three cities. Goods from the Northern Alliance and Atlantis arrived, and construction work began in various places. The ringtone knight's armor was quickly completed. My 21 ringtone knights all had the same equipment, but the mounts could not be unified for the time being. Fortunately, there were so many things I loved. Twenty ordinary bell knights use heavy armored dragons. Skott is the leader and needs special points. I let him use my steel claws. Anyway, I have night shadows. I can ride a dragon if it doesn't work.

Today is the 16th. The materials needed for urban construction are basically complete. A few that have not been found have been contacted. But there is still a problem that seriously affects our development, that is, labor. Essinger is already a super metropolis. Steel City is bigger than Essinger. Although it is not necessary to build city walls and defense facilities, the amount of engineering is still not small. Although the area of ​​Tianyu City on the European side is not large, it is currently being expanded, and because the Iron Crusaders are buying steel from us, the Tianyu City's transport array has been expanded into an extra large transport array and special applications have been made for the construction of cargo corridors. The cities built by players are basically level 4 teleporters. These teleporters can only transmit players and some carry-on items. If you want to teleport NPCs other than the player ’s pet and monster servant, you must have a level 3 teleporter. If you want to transfer a large amount of goods, you must have a level 2 transfer array. If you want to transfer large volumes or large quantities of goods, you must have a level 1 transfer array. Essinger's teleportation array is basically a 2-level transmission array, and a few places have a first-level array. The transnational transmission array is a special-level transmission array, which does not limit the transmission of items and distance.

According to this calculation, the amount of construction projects in each city is very large, we simply can not mobilize NPCs and guild players in the city. Everyone thought of many ways that were not very good. Finally, Xiao Yao proposed to recruit. "Zero" is not just a game of killing and killing, construction is also a kind of fun, otherwise the "Simulation City" series of games will not be sold so hot. In Zero, there are a large number of non-combat players. These people are practicing life occupations, especially many craftsmen. It is a good idea to hire these people. Anyway, NPC craftsmen in the city also need to spend money, so please be cheaper. Everyone agreed that the plan was very good, so I was logically elected as the recruiting director.

I dragged a rose and Bingbing to Yunxiao City. When the city owner was a cow fork, we opened a job fair in the hall of the former Guangming Temple. Other guilds were not as big as ours. More than 200 guards were mobilized from the city defense team to maintain order outside the temple. Anyway, there was the temple guard of Vena watching in the temple. I chose to open a job fair here. One thing to consider here is that there are more people in the main city of the system. Second, we dare not go to other cities. At present, no player city is as large as Isinger. As long as the city in the whole system is larger, it is all a temple city. These cities are either the Temple of Light or the subordinates of the Temple of Darkness. Based on our current relationship, we must see that the city of Light and Darkness must go around. Do n’t think about entering the city. Fortunately, the largest number in the game is the neutral free city, which usually does not affect our activities, but those big cities must not be close.

I used to drill into the ravine to fight monsters, and I rarely went into the city. Today, I opened a job fair to know that I was really out of date. Rose asked the city ’s NPC guards to post an announcement one day in advance, and also hired players to publicize in other cities. The people who come to participate today are diverse. At first, Rose felt that I had opened 16 channels. I still feel weird. Now I know why there are so many. Looks like this is not enough, I would have opened 36!

中间 The main entrance in the middle of the temple was opened side by side with 16 railings, all the way from the entrance to the central square in front of the temple. Each channel entrance has an NPC responsible for maintaining order and channeling. Those who want to register enter the temple from the channel. There is a table at the other end of the channel. Two NPCs are sitting behind the table. After completing the procedures, they can leave through the small door behind the temple and enter the temple. Singh. All I brought today are senior NPC clerks from Isinger. They are 200% faster than normal NPCs, but they still have a long queue.

Rose and Bingbing are standing behind the row of service NPCs. If there is something that needs special handling, the NPC will leave things to them. I am running around inside and outside the shrine, specializing in handling all kinds of beatings. This time we are recruiting not only non-combatants, but also combat players. The two rightmost teams are specifically used to recruit combat players, and the two teams usually fight.

I was patrolling the square, and suddenly I heard someone calling me. I looked up and saw an NPC cavalry commander standing on the top of the steps and shouting: "Master, please come here."

排 A row of people on the steps came back to look at me. Anyway, I didn't wear a magic dragon suit and an order armor today. No one knows who I am. Look at it. Running all the way to the top of the steps, I asked the NPC while walking inside the temple: "What's the matter?"

"Someone is playing rogue."

刚 As soon as I entered the hall, I saw a team standing in the middle of a big noise.

"What are you guys? Isn't this a joke?" The player was still chanting, and the players behind him were blocked by him and couldn't go through the formalities.

I walked over and said, "What's going on?"

Rose stuck to my ear and whispered, "This man is a combat player, but he is standing in a non-combat player team. We asked him to re-queue to the next table to register, but he refused to wait in line. I want to do it right away. "I was about to walk over and was pulled back by Rose. "Don't be too impulsive, there are too many players here, even if we are reasonable, we can't be too tough."

I patted her on the waist: "Rest assured, do I not know the weight of someone?" Release the rose and walk to the person. "I'm the chairman of the Frost Rose Alliance. How about we talk to each other? Don't delay others' time."

"That doesn't delay my time? Lao Tzu can't handle the rest of the day today." Don't think that the player is so human-looking that he was so aggressive!

I smiled and said, "Look, the players in the back are also very anxious. It ’s not the way you are so blocked? In case there are some players in the back waiting for you in an anxiety to come to you, I wo n’t have so many people here Knowing who hit you, it ’s not easy to catch, you ca n’t say how bad. ”I deliberately made the voice so loud that everyone in the back heard it, and it was necessary to kill someone with a knife.

In fact, the players behind this guy are not happy anymore, but the 911-level NPCs on both sides of the team stood in two rows and no one dared to move. When I make such a statement, I imply that beatings do not violate the law. People now are very well acquainted with it. Hula, a group of people gathered around and beat the guy down.

站在 I stood by and stopped the NPC guard who wanted to step forward, but I kept shouting, "Everyone should calm down and return to the team. It is not good to hit people."

Anyway, I shouted at me, and the fight inside was very happy. After a while, the guy was thrown out like a muddy mud, and his body was full of footprints. After the fight, the players of the two teams quickly resumed their positions, as if nothing had happened. I walked to the side and said loudly, "A group of people just battered a player here, who saw that group of people?"

Someone replied, "I see. The crowd seems to be running outside."

_______________________________________

马上 I immediately answered: "Oh! It's estimated that it's been a long time since then. We still have something to do, and we won't kill anyone anyway." As a result, there was a laugh.

Order was restored in the temple, and I walked back to Rose and Bingbing. "The power of the masses is invincible, you know?"

Rose smiled and gave me a punch: "You can do it!"

这次 Our guild recruitment is the largest recruitment since the game started, and Rose's early work is better, so many people come to participate. Because it is in the game, it is very easy to recruit people, just look at the skill level. In the 48-hour job fair, we actually recruited more than 300,000 non-combat players, which is almost three-thousandths of the total number of non-combat players in China. The labor required for urban construction was resolved after the recruitment, but my economy also collapsed. The Dragon King only pays for Essinger's expenses, and other cities have to pay for it myself, which is not a good thing. Although steel ore is a good thing, it takes time to turn steel into cash. Although the magic spar in our hand is a sought-after item, we also need it ourselves and cannot sell it. I turned over the trash in my bracelet. I sold all the necklaces, armors, weapons and other useless things, but these were small money and didn't make much sense to the construction of the guild. It seems to be entering the economic crisis again!

Rose and I were lying on the top of the Juling Pagoda, thinking about the problem while watching the sunrise.

"What do you think I can do to solve the economic crisis?" I asked, leaning on Rose's shoulder.

"In general, there are three types of countermeasures for our economic crisis. The first is to expand reinvestment, but I think this is not good. The second is to invest in production. Although we have this advantage, this method requires time."

"You mean you want me to use the third method? Tell me directly what is it?"

Rose said firmly: "Foreign war."

"Fight?"

"Capital plunder is the most effective and fastest way to resolve the economic crisis. War drives consumption and generates loot at the same time. The greatest advantage of passing on the economic crisis is that it supplements itself and weakens the enemy."

"But what do we do? War alone cannot make money unless you want to do arms business."

"Why not?" Rose asked me. "It's very difficult to research manufacturing technology from finished weapons. It's not that we can copy what we buy. And we have absolute technical advantages. Why can't we sell arms?"

"OK. I understand this."

"You have to think carefully about the problem of sales, or you will end up in trouble."

"You don't need to worry about this, how can I say that I am also the successor of Long Yuan. I am from the arms dealer family!"

"Arms are just one aspect, there are other businesses."

"For example?"

"Like taxes." Rose took out the financial records of our guild. "You see, so far our guild has done a lot. When it comes to pirates, selling obsolete warships, gold trading, steel trade, transportation, and Sky City tax. The most stable and most profitable of these is Sky City. Do n’t underestimate that you have cheated a lot of money from the NPCs of the Dragon King. In fact, it is not much more than city tax. Do not underestimate the silver coin of the transfer fee, and do not underestimate the 5% tax of various stores, and the city gate. The entrance fee of 10 copper plates per person per time is charged. The money is not much, but do you know? The 4 gates of Sky City have exceeded 10 million person-times for at least one day so far. You count, 10 million People, there are 10 copper plates per person, that is 100 million copper plates! At least one hundred thousand crystal coins will be charged in one day when you enter the city! 10 copper plates are converted into 1 dime, and beggars don't care about 1 dime, but it can be done in one day. Provide us with 100,000 crystal coins. What do you think of this number? I have calculated the traffic of Shencheng and Goddess City. Cloud City has a minimum of 10 million person-times per day, and a holiday may reach 200 million person-times. The value is more than 25 million. That is to say, the average city entrance fee income of Sky City can reach 250,000 crystal coins a day. Our guild owns 54% of the shares of Sky City, and the daily tickets are 135,000 crystal coins. In fact, the city fee is also paid. It's small, the rent of urban shops, taxes, the cost of teleportation, the cost of various offices, the cost of things in the temple. Now there is an additional restaurant industry. I have calculated that a city like Yuncheng City is taxed for one day's income Later, it can reach 10 million crystal coins, and we can get 5.4 million crystal coins. Do you say that the city is the most profitable industry? "

"It's quite a lot according to you. But the cost of the city is not small!"

"I have calculated that the cost of the city is mainly the construction cost, and the maintenance fee does not exceed 2 million crystal coins a day. Even a city as large as Isinger only has 2.5 million crystal coins. The profit margin is huge!"

"You mean you want me to build a city in another country?"

"Not only to build cities, but also to make full use of contradictions between countries."

"what do you mean?"

Rose shouted to the eye of **** above her head: "Eye of hell, open the map of China's coast and surrounding areas." The eye of **** projected a perfect map in front of us. Rose pointed at South Korea: "This is South Korea. Like the Chinese, they also hate the Japanese."

"Of course I know."

而 "And our guild has exactly what Koreans need."

"You mean the Transnational Array?"

Rose kissed me quickly on my face. "It ’s so smart. We can build a city in South Korea. It does n’t need to be too big, as long as we can put down a Korean local transport array and a multinational transport array. By the way, we will put some related facilities. Three square kilometers is enough. "

"So big a bunker?"

"Anyway, don't do anything, it's just a portal to the teleportation team, no matter how big he is!"

"Say that too! But where are the Koreans going with the teleportation team? You can't send them to China, right?"

"It's stupid just to brag about your cleverness. Of course, Koreans are going to Japan."

"But we didn't ...!" I suddenly understood the meaning of roses. "You mean to build a city in Japan and let the Koreans fight the Japanese?"

"Yes. But not only that. We are going to build two cities in Japan, not one."

"What do you want for two?"

"Fight each other!"

"what?"

"Are there many Japanese players in our guild? Let them build a city in Japan in the name of the Japanese, keep it secret, do not let the Japanese know that it is our city, and even let a few players leave our guild. Establish a separate Japanese guild to build a city over there. Then we can build a city next to this city, not too far away. But this time we need a large city, we must have good armed defense, it is best to be near the sea, so Our warships will work. "

"I see. At that time, Little Japan will definitely want to attack our city, but their warships at sea cannot fight, but we can only come from land, and the closest to us is the city we secretly built. Little Japan will definitely Gathered in this city to resupply and fight with us for a long time. We transported Koreans to Japan and Little Japan to fight. The cities on both sides are ours. We only need to collect the money. If we want to fight, there will be death and injury, and a lot of it will be needed. Weapons. We can build a lot of weapons stores, drug stores, resurrection halls and other things in both cities. By that time ... hehehehe! "I couldn't help but hold a rose to kiss one of them. "You are so black!"

"I help you make an idea, and you say that I am black and have no conscience!"

The two of us have made super evil strategies in this laughter, and the next step is to start working for this strategy.

The first thing to do is to stop the construction of Tianyu City. Immediately, we need to build 3 more cities. So many places require money. I ca n’t stand it ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ At the same time I stopped building Tianyu City, I Began to officially sell steel to the Iron Crusaders. Our guild itself used the black steel produced by the crystal beetle, but the Iron Crusaders certainly couldn't sell the black steel, and it was enough to provide raw steel directly. While selling steel, we also provided the Iron Crusaders with new artillery, which is part of the technology of the Shenwu Cannon, and the condition was that the Iron Crusade quickly raise 20 million crystal coins to us. The Divine Cannon itself was modified by the Iron Crusaders, and 20 million is definitely expensive, but we have given corresponding policies, such as the exclusive right to buy out steel mines. Our guilds must not submit to any European guild except Iron Crusaders. Selling steel ore.

Lu Guang's 20 million is obviously not enough. I found Red Moon again and asked her to pull Feng Yin Piao Miao too. After negotiation, Feng Yin Piao Miao promised to provide 50 million crystal coins to support us, but he will have 10% of the shares in the three cities. We don't lose even if we count, there is no way to start out and we have to borrow money to live! Our own guild still has 50 million usable funds, plus 70 million raised, a total of 120 million crystal coins.

The city in South Korea does not need to be too big. At that time, with the publicity of South Korean players, we will say that we Chinese will open channels for Japanese by the way. Koreans will not attack the city we built in Korea, Even monster siege Korean players may help us to defend. Therefore, cities in South Korea do not need to be too big, and it is enough to build with 2 million crystal coins. Both cities on the other side of Japan are going to fight, and they must be very tall and strong. According to our calculations, a city needs at least 90 million crystal coins. In other words, there are still about 60 million loopholes.

I thought for a long time I suddenly thought of someone. "Rose? Would you like to borrow money from Yanyu?
