Chapter 344 Pai who never forgets

  Official website forum.

  【Update Announcement: The logistics department of the new alliance will be changed to 12 departments including industry, economy, transportation, energy, trade, diplomacy, education, and military. 】

  【Some NPC positions have been adjusted, please pay attention to identify them! 】

  Tail: "Oh, oh, is this going to be an expansion pack? Let me be healthy! (ω

  Smoking Quit: "Wait a minute, does this have anything to do with us?"

   Edge paddling: "It doesn't seem to be!"

  Spring Water Commander: "NPC seems to have no players?"

  Spring Water Commander: "...Uh, I seem to have said something nonsense."

  The mole on the run in the canyon: "So what's new in this update?"

  Big Eyes in Debt: "Damn! Let this guy get another update!"

  The boy on the construction site and Brick: "Open the bank exchange!"

  Makabazi: "Second! I want to sell silver!"

  Fujito: "Pfft..."

  Another day of hopeless expectations.

  On the fourth day after the end of the expansion, the silver coin trading platform is still not open. The Beta0.3 version of the kingdom of heaven is still brewing, and there is no news at all until now.

  Rumours abound on the forum.

  Some people said that Ah Guang cut a wave of leeks and ran away, the silver coin trading platform will not be opened again, and the forum will be closed after a while.

   Some people said it was absolutely impossible, how could Ah Guang run away after cutting the leeks?

   That must continue to mow!

  Ye Wei felt that what they said was very problematic.

  Anyone who has really entered the game knows that Brother Guang never cuts leeks. He only makes games wholeheartedly. Not only does he not make money from the players, but he even benefits the players.

  It’s just that sometimes the AI ​​is too cunning, and NPCs may not play cards according to the routine.

  But this little thing is nothing at all, but one of the characteristics of "Wasteland OL".

  NPC would be boring if it really wanted to be like a fool.

  The silver coin trading platform will definitely be open.

   And it should be in these few days.

   But speaking of it, every time he thinks about it, Ye Wei feels scared for a while.

  At that time, he had just sold the silver coins, and the price was still rising. In fact, he regretted it a little. He thought that he should wait to sell it later, so that he could earn tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands more.

  However, the moment he saw the suspension of trading on the silver coin trading platform, all the regrets in his heart disappeared, leaving only joy.

   Fortunately, it was sold early.

   Even if I want to sell it a few hours later, I can’t sell it.

  Thinking of the 5 million lying in the bank card, his heart beat faster.

  5 million!

  He has never seen so much money in his life!

   "A Wei, what are you looking for?" A roommate's voice came from behind, and Sun Gan, who had just returned from playing, came over curiously.

   "Swipe the forum."

   "Damn! It's been a few years, and you still play BBS, so you can't get in touch with young people?"

   "It's better to watch short videos." Old Liu interjected.

   "+1." The head of the dormitory also agreed.

  Ye Wei rolled his eyes and put away his phone.

   "You know a hammer."

  Old Liu couldn't help but said.

   "A Wei, I didn't say it... If there is such a completely real virtual reality game as you mentioned, why can't I watch the short video at all?"

  The bedroom head also raised his hand.

   "+1, I can't even brush on the bib."

  Ye Wei said without hesitation: "I guess it's restricted. After all, the PV is rated R18 even with a filter."

  This matter has been discussed in the group before.

  PV can be posted on Moments, Space, and Groups, but it cannot be posted on media platforms such as short videos and bibs, at least not on large platforms.

   It can be seen over the wall, but the discussion on the Internet is not very popular.

  The main reason is that the official website is all in Chinese, and it is full of bad memes that cannot be translated by a translator. It is too difficult for international friends to understand.

  Of course, although there are few international friends, they are not completely absent.

  However, to Ye Wei's surprise, he just said that casually, and the whole dormitory boiled instantly!

   "R18? Awesome!"

   "666!"

   "Good guy, it turns out that you are shivering every night hiding under the covers!"

   Seeing everyone booing and teasing, Ye Wei blushed and retorted.

   "Get out, I'm talking about the **** and violent R18, what does Se... have to do with that!"

  Sun Gan patted him on the shoulder with a playful smile.

   "It's okay, it's okay, everyone understands it, and young people can understand it. Don't worry, we will keep the secret for you!"

  Ye Wei rolled his eyes.

   "Stop talking nonsense, my master will be on the account soon, by the way, have you read the link I sent you before?"

  Sun Gan was confused: "Link?"

  Ye Wei: "That's the game reservation interface!"

  Sun Qian suddenly said: "Oh, you said that, I took a look... what kind of stuff, asking questions, it's like checking a water meter."

  Old Liu interjected and said: "+1, I don't think that website looks like a serious website at all, so I closed it immediately!"

  Ye Wei said impatiently: "Don't worry about so much, let you fill it out, and you'll be done. Brothers will kill you?"

   But filling out the form now, I’m afraid some people will have to wait.

  When he could still see the number of reserved players before, Ye Wei glanced at it deliberately and found that the number was already more than his bank card balance.

   Ignoring the few animals in the dormitory, he threw his phone on the table to charge it, climbed into bed, put on the helmet, and logged into the game as Ye Shi.

  The three people in the dormitory looked at each other and looked at each other.

   "...I'm a little bit convinced."

   "This guy puts on his helmet on time from six o'clock in the evening every day. If he doesn't have class in the morning, he can sleep until twelve o'clock at noon. It's hard not to believe it."

   "Fully immersive R18 games are okay..."

   "Hey, I'm going to fill out a form...mainly for criticism."

   "I almost believed it!"

  …

  North Street in the south of Shuguang City.

  Today was the same as usual, very lively early in the morning.

  After the Northern Expedition ended, a large number of players left the front line and returned to the surrounding areas of Dawn City. Every day, you can see fresh prey and catches, or freshly picked mushrooms, in front of the meat stalls.

  Especially lately.

  With the opening of the north-south railway transportation line, there are a lot of warship shrimps shipped from Xizhou Lake in the market of Shuguang City.

   This kind of freshwater shrimp, whose shell is harder than steel and whose body is longer than its arms, is generally eaten by no survivors.

  However, these smart little players have developed four eating methods: braised in soy sauce, steamed, braised in oil, and minced garlic, turning things that no one eats into delicious ones.

   Even the "cubs" of the warship shrimp were not spared. They were made into fist-sized crayfish by professional life players, and were widely praised by NPCs.

  Due to the skyrocketing price of silver coins, everyone's enthusiasm for making money has also increased.

  Graduation outfits in NPC shops are too cheap?

  The public archive point is too convenient and you don’t want to buy a house?

   Too many silver coins and no place to spend them?

   Not a problem at all!

  There are so many little leeks queuing up outside to buy them. Thinking that the silver coins earned are all money, the players are even more motivated to move bricks!

  The entrance of Haiji Ramen Restaurant.

   Zhang Hai, who was standing beside a big pot, was shouting loudly.

   "Sell ramen, 4 silver a bowl!"

   Father Baiyin who happened to come in couldn't help complaining when he heard it.

   "Damn! One thousand yuan a bowl, you are stealing money!"

   Zhang Hai stared.

   "Fuck, brother, how can you do that?"

  What the **** is using the highest price?

   Let’s use the average price to calculate!

   "It's not important!" Father Baiyin chuckled and threw four silver coins on the table, "Business on North Street is so hot, brother must have made a lot of money."

   Zhang Hai said carelessly while serving noodles.

   "It's too vulgar to talk about money! Mainly we like the texture of this kneading dough."

  The boy on the construction site and Zhuan, who were eating noodles, happened to hear it, and almost yueed out without a mouthful, and threw away their chopsticks cursing.

   "Damn! I lost my appetite."

   "Money back!"

  Zhang Hai rolled his eyes and turned back unceremoniously.

   "I want to fart!"

   Just then, a pleasant voice came.

   "Old man, six bowls of noodles!"

  Looking at the tail that slapped a handful of silver coins on the table, the players sitting nearby eating noodles were shocked instantly.

   "Fuck!"

   "Six...six bowls!?"

   "Rich woman!!"

   "Okay!" Seeing the business, Zhang Hai suddenly became more energetic, and stopped talking to the guests. He tore a lump of dough from the chopping board and started his performance.

   Pai looked left and right curiously.

  Looking at the flying noodles, her eyes suddenly lit up.

   "Whoa, what's that!"

   "Ramen!" Tail said proudly, "Hmph, when it comes to the delicacies of the new alliance, this is of course indispensable!"

   Pai stared straight at the noodles, his eyes sparkled.

   "lamian? Awesome!"

  Big Pyrenees looked at the tail in surprise, then at Pai.

   "Huh? Can you understand what the NPC is saying?"

   "I think it's just a coincidence..." Staring at the translator on the VM, Sisi said with a delicate expression, "Is there a possibility that they are all talking about themselves, but they don't understand what the other party is saying at all?"

  The cat ears on the top of the head shook slightly, and Sesame Paste said enviously: "In a sense, this is also a pretty remarkable skill."

   Tail puffed up his chest, and said proudly.

   "Yeah! That's right! Please praise me more!"

   Game time is six in the morning.

  The three of them and one bear just went online, and received an entrustment issued by the manager himself, hoping that they can serve as the guards of the visiting group of Camp No. 101, and accompany Xiaoyu and Pai to visit Dawn City.

   Regarding the identity of Pai, the new NPC, there have been discussions on the forum before.

  According to the information of the cattle and horse team, it is said that he is a very great "Puppet Master" who is good at making exquisite figures.

   And also the representative of the visiting group of Camp 101!

   Such a meaningful task, and the opportunity to establish a deep friendship with a special NPC, no player will miss it.

  Especially when he learned that Xiaoyu was also in the team, without further ado, Tail immediately took over the task on behalf of the White Bear Knights.

   Six bowls of ramen were quickly served on the table.

  Xiaoyu patiently taught Pai how to use chopsticks.

  She thought it would take a lot of time, but she didn't expect the other party to learn it all at once, even more proficient in using it than she did.

   "So that's it! It's such a convenient tool!" Looking at the two wooden sticks in his hand, Pai said excitedly, "How did you come up with this idea?"

   "Brother Chu brought him out of the shelter." Looking at Pai, who had mastered it so quickly, Xiaoyu had an envious expression on his face.

  It took her a long time to get used to this unique tableware.

   "Your shelter is also amazing, there are so many interesting things." Pai also had an envious expression on his face, but it was for a completely different reason.

   "Of course! Brother Chu is amazing," the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously, Xiaoyu suddenly thought of something, and continued, "By the way, where are you going to go for a walk?"

   "Industrial zone!" Pai said with sparkling eyes.

"industrial area?"

   Pai nodded energetically.

   "Hmm! Can't you?"

   It's not impossible...

  But don’t shopping generally go to places like commercial streets?

   Although Xiaoyu was a little confused, but thinking of what Big Brother Chu had told her before, she nodded without saying anything.

   "Well, if you want to."

  …

   A group of people came to the industrial area.

  The first thing that catches the eye is the "notorious" goblin technology.

   Listening to the reactions of other life professional players, there are always explosions inside from time to time, and occasionally one or two screams can be heard.

  Although there must be exaggeration in this, and there may even be smears from friends and businessmen, but it does not prevent everyone from spreading rumors.

   Later, this rumor got into the ears of NPCs for some unknown reason, so that almost no wastelander was willing to work here.

  Most of the people who work here are players, especially the new players who have just entered the game, and it is commonplace to dedicate themselves to technology.

  Considering the glorious image of the new alliance, Sis planned to silently bypass this "sweatshop", but he didn't think about it, and Pai had already sneaked in curiously.

  In the open space in the center of the factory.

   Mosquito and a few apprentices were muttering and discussing something around a blackboard.

   Parked not far from them were two W-1 and 2 gliders that had been dismantled into parts, and a large pile of custom-made parts from other factories.

  In the previous battle of Songlinyu, the W-series attack aircraft performed quite brilliantly on the battlefield, but many problems were also exposed.

  One is that the mobility is too poor, and the other is that the shell is too brittle.

  When diving to the ground, the small 7mm water pipe can smash the aircraft into a sieve, and those predators just rely on the patchwork of anti-aircraft machine guns to exchange one with them.

   To bully the predators, the glider is obviously enough, but if you are facing a survivor force like Boulder City, it may not be enough to see how many such ultra-low-speed aircraft come.

   Therefore, the administrator placed a new order with Goblin Technology.

   They are required to produce a fighter that is stronger, faster, and has better air combat performance, so as to reduce the death rate of pilots.

  To be honest, mosquitoes feel unnecessary.

  What kind of defense do humanoid missiles need?

  With that load, it is better to carry two more aerial bombs.

What? The opponent is the black technology plane of Boulder City?

   And you don't even know what the opponent's power principle and mounted weapons are?

   Then make a yarn.

   Just cast it!

  Staring at the sketch on the blackboard, Persuading Jia scratched his head and said: "The speed of the propeller plane can't increase, why don't we just make a jet plane directly."

   "It's better to build a steel shell directly!" Dao Ming said with bright eyes, "If you can't win, we can go up and hit it! Use your tail to cut it!"

  Chasing the soul: "If you don't understand, just ask, are you talking about the MiG-25?"

  Sha Shen: "Hahaha, fly bricks vigorously! I like it!"

  The mosquito standing next to him rolled his eyes.

   "You guys really know how to dream."

  Jets?

   Still want to make a MiG?

  It's not that simple!

   This is not a question of whether there is technology, but that the supporting industries cannot support it at all. It is impossible to grind every part of an aircraft with a high-precision plasma cutting machine.

   Not to mention how much man-hours and materials it will consume, even if it is really ground out, the cost will be unacceptable to them anyway.

  What they need to consider is how to maximize their limited advantages.

  Looking at the concept map scribbled on the blackboard, Mosquito said with a headache.

   "...Or just follow what I said, just get the humanoid AA to play, and save yourself thinking about EMP and signal hijacking."

   Just when he was feeling irritable, a strange voice suddenly came from beside him.

   "Oh! Is this your plane? It looks so retro!" Looking at the plane shell on the open space, Pai said curiously.

  Mosquito turned his head and saw a little girl with pale blond hair standing next to the W-2 ground attack aircraft he dismantled into parts.

   Normally, he would not mind wasting time bragging.

   But now he is obviously not in that mood.

   "Go, go, let the children play, don't hinder the adults from working."

  Although his human language is not proficient, but because he often deals with NPCs, there is no problem in daily communication.

   This is true for most life players.

   Pai looked at the guy disapprovingly.

   "Who says I'm a child! I'm sixteen years old this year!"

   Mosquito dug out its ears and said with a chuckle.

   "Sixteen years old? Didn't you graduate from junior high school?"

   Pai tilted his head.

   "chuzhong?"

   These people always speak with some difficult words.

   "Anyway, this is not a place for children. Go back and find your mother. Go, if you don't leave, I'll call the guards." The mosquito made a gesture to drive away the mosquito.

This guy…

   Seeing that he was underestimated, Pai raised his eyebrows.

   Just about to go out from here, her eyes fell on the blackboard next to her, and her expression suddenly became interesting.

   "Are you planning to spray the kerosene atomized and ignite it?"

   "Otherwise?" Mosquito asked without thinking.

   "Hehe, no-what-"

   Drawn back a sentence, Pai stared at the blackboard twice, wrote down the dense content on it, then turned and walked away.

   Mosquito looked at the little girl's back in bewilderment, completely confused by her last sentence.

   At this moment, Quanjia next to him suddenly spoke.

   "That NPC... seems to be Pai?"

  Zhouhun looked at him strangely.

   "π?"

  Gu Jia shook his head.

   "Didn't you read the discussion on the official website? She seems to be from that Camp 101."

  …

  【Mission: Deep into Hell】

  【Briefing: Mutant slime mold is one of the core threats faced by survivors in the wasteland. In order to understand their source and countermeasures, the Vault Medical Laboratory needs more samples. Note: Strong electromagnetic interference has been detected in this area, electronic equipment may malfunction, and air support is not available for this mission. 】

  【Main goal: Go to the second to third ring road area in the city center, and collect slime mold samples at sampling points 1, 2, and 3 on the map. 】

  【Secondary goal: We lost a reconnaissance plane in the downtown area. If conditions permit, please bring the pilot's VM back. (Player ID: Luo Yu). 】

  【Task publisher: Heya】

  【Minimum access level: LV.20】

  【Required team size: 4~8 people】

  【Mission risk factor:? 】

  【Recommended equipment: gas masks, protective clothing, compasses, paper maps and other low-electronic equipment. 】

   "The risk factor question mark is okay."

   This is something to do.

  At the save point in the north of Dawn City, Ye Shi stood in front of the storage box, looking at the task pop-up window on the VM with a look of surprise.

   A few minutes ago, Lao Bai pulled up a team and shared this task from the medical laboratory to their VM.

   Quickly brought the necessary equipment, Ye Shi confirmed the assembly coordinates on the map, and immediately rushed to join his teammates.

  The assembly point is at the airport next to the military camp in the north of the city.

  Due to the complex road conditions in the urban area, there are a lot of different kinds of activities on the road. In order to save time and ammunition, the "Dragonfly" transport opportunity of the New Alliance will send them and airdrop materials to the edge of the Fifth Ring Road, and parachute into the target area.

  It was the same as when I was in Xizhou City.

   Arrived at the assembly point.

  Ye Shi found that his four teammates had been waiting here for a long time.

  Including Lao Bai who was in the front row, everyone tacitly did not bring an exoskeleton, but only brought some cheap and durable light equipment.

  Everyone's expressions are relaxed, even casual.

   After all, it is not the first time for those standing here to skydive.

  Although the situation in Qingquan City is far more complicated than that of Xizhou City, and the risk factor of the mission is quite suspicious, the mission requirement is not to kill the boss, but to collect a few samples.

   For the most powerful team in the server, this is obviously not a problem.

   "...the registered company's business license has been issued, and the registered place is in Shanghai."

   "In the future, transactions can go to the company's account, and the company will pay the individual in the form of technical service fees. I have consulted with game studio owners I know, and they basically operate in this way, which can save a lot of trouble."

   Leaning against the side of the hangar.

  Fang Chang and his teammates were talking about real things.

  The funds obtained through the silver coin trading platform will directly enter the company account, deduct personal income tax and 5% of operating costs, and then pay to the players.

   What the company signs with the player is a cooperation contract, not a labor contract.

  Since the part of the money paid to players belongs to the operating costs of the company, the 5% retained by the company can only be regarded as profit after deducting a series of other costs, so there is no problem of paying two taxes on the same money.

  Considering the different policies of different regions, through this series of operations, although there is an additional intermediate link, the cost will not be much higher than private-to-private transfers.

   And avoid the hassle of explaining income.

  Everyone holds a part of the shares, even the shareholders are also part-time workers.

  Considering that there will be more and more players in the future, you can also promote your business to other players in need, and charge a symbolic 5% service fee or something.

   Anyway, their core business is in the game.

   I didn't plan to rely on this cattle and horse company to make money.

  After listening to what Fang Chang said, Ye Shi said in surprise.

"So fast?"

Fang Chang said with a smile: "I found an accountant company to do it. There are many companies in Shanghai that do this kind of business, and they can also provide a place to call. But I will still rent an office in the future and hire a professional accountant. After all, if the amount of funds is large, I still don’t feel at ease using other people’s financial systems.”

  The most critical issue is security.

  Whether it is property security or information security.

   Quit smoking and said with admiration.

   "Brother is awesome!"

   "It's awesome, it's not a difficult thing." Fang Chang couldn't laugh or cry, and after a pause, he continued, "Actually, I've been thinking about a problem these days."

   Quit smoking and asked curiously: "What's the problem?"

  Fang Chang said seriously: "The previous auction...what was the auction item that was sold at a sky-high price of 4 million silver coins?"

  4 million silver coins.

  According to the average price of 1 silver coin to 80RMB before the suspension, it is equivalent to more than 300 million yuan!

  Such a large amount of money is unlikely to be the behavior of a certain player in the game. After all, even if it is a cattle and horse brick factory, it is quite difficult to take out so much "cash" at one time.

   What is even more unpredictable is that the mysterious buyer fell silent after taking pictures of the item, neither came to the forum to pretend to be aggressive, nor heard anyone show off.

  The official did not announce what was sold from the beginning to the end, and the people who eat melons watched the bidding price go up, and then nothing was left with the hammer.

   This series of abnormal operations makes it hard not to think too much.

   No wonder mosquitoes are interested.

  Honestly speaking, he was starting to get curious.

  Ye Shi asked with interest.

   "What do you think that thing would be?"

  Fang Chang thought for two seconds before giving an ambiguous answer.

   "Maybe something worth more than money."

  He is not sure whether his guess is correct, he has been paying attention to the news these days.

   "?" Yemou looked at his good brother in a daze.

  What does it mean to be worth more than money?

  At this time, shouts came from the runway next to it.

   "Damn! How long are you going to dawdle, you can't go away."

  Seeing that the pilot started to rush, Lao Bai relaxed his thoughtful expression, smiled and patted his teammates on the shoulders.

   "Let's go, let's talk on the plane."

  (end of this chapter)
