Reign of the Hunters: Storm precursor
Chapter XIX Storm Premonition
So distressed is not the answer. The best way to solve such distress is to go and see it again. Ye Ci looked at the consumables left on its body, and finally decided to go back to Red Lake City to replenish it, and then go again.
But after returning to Red Lake City, Ye Ci will not be so easy to escape. First of all, the recent business in the shop of Dad mother does not seem to be very good, the main reason is that there are no special formulas, and the life of two people is still low in skill level, so the produced things are not rare items, even In such a good shop location, there is not much good business.
This situation is obviously different from what Ye Nantian and Zuo Xiaolan originally thought. Therefore, after thinking over and over again, the two people decided to withdraw from the game and let Ye Ci take back the shop and sublet it to others, so that they would not lose too much money.
When Ye Nantian and Zuo Xiaolan told this decision to Ye Ci, Ye Ci was sitting in Ye Nantian's shop for a western-style thick soup that didn't taste too good.
"Xiao ci, we don't make this shop, you can sublet it out."
"Hmm ..." I do n’t know if it was because the parents told them in unison or because the western-style thick soup was too unpalatable. In short, Ye Ci sprayed all the thick soup just in the mouth at one breath. It was on the faces of the old couple sitting opposite them.
"Ah, I'm sorry." Ye Ci looked at his parents who were embarrassed by themselves and quickly apologized.
Although this kind of situation will not cause any harm in the game, it still looks a little different in appearance. Ye Nantian and Zuo Xiaolan took a rag and wiped their faces. Ye Nantian also said humorously, "Xiao ci, we have washed our faces this morning."
That said, it even made Ye Ci feel embarrassed. She laughed with a smile, and then quickly switched off the topic: "What did you just say?"
"We said, we don't want to do this shop, you sublet it out." Zuo Xiaolan repeated it quickly.
Ye Ci twitched his lips, and did not answer their questions immediately, but asked instead: "Why?"
If someone asks why, Ye Nantian and Zuo Xiaolan may have to talk about the face and say some fake nonsense, but Ye Ci is their own daughter. They did not hide her, and told her the truth directly: " Xiao ci, we are all one family, we will not say anything deceptive. "Zuo Xiaolan sighed, then looked at Ye Nantian, and then said:" You give us this shop a good location, every day There are a lot of people entering the store, but we do n’t know why, our business is not as good as the sound in other stores. We think that instead of letting us continue to waste so much, it ’s better that you transfer this store Rent it out and earn some money. "
"Subletting?" Ye Ci smiled: "Mom, although this game is a 100% simulation game, but many places are not as complete as in real life. It's as if this subletting is in the game There is no such thing. "After speaking, she added silently in her heart, of course, there will be in the near future.
"So, what should we do? Let's continue to lose money like this?" Zuo Xiaolan, who saved his life, heard Ye Ci's statement, and his head immediately fluttered like rattle: "No, absolutely not! Anyway, I am Quit, such a loss-making business, I feel distressed all day long! "
"Mom, don't forget, we signed the contract. If you unilaterally terminate the contract, you will have to pay a penalty." The so-called daughter Moruo, and the other way around can be justified. I have been a mother and daughter with Zuo Xiaolan for two lives. Of course, what she is thinking about is Ye Ci. Therefore, she did not care about Zuo Xiaolan's disagreement, but just moved the contract out.
"Liquidation penalty? What penalty penalty?" Zuo Xiaolan regarded this game as just a game from beginning to end, so her old man didn't even look at the contract they signed with Ye Ci. It was thrown in the warehouse.
"Why? mother, did you not look at the contract we signed?" Ye Ci used her heels to know that mother was not seen, but she pretended not to know, showing a look of surprise, even lightly I picked my nails and blew the ash from my nails.
"Contract?" Zuo Xiaolan's mouth began to cramp. She slowly looked at Ye Nantian beside her. I did not expect Ye Nantian, like her, had never seen that thing at all. Now Ye Nantian is in her. He shook his head in a hurry and panic, expressing that he had no idea what the Ye Ci said about the contract.
"I was the one who said I did n’t sign it. You must force me to sign it?" Ye Ci narrowed his eyes and a calculated smile appeared on the corners of his lips. She even reminded her badly that the source of the contract was not what she asked for. She watched her parents start to grow a black line of their heads, and then continued to deepen their impression: "It was the one signed in the city hall. Two, oh, by the way, you also made specific evaluations of the figure of the mayor of Red Lake ... "
"Okay, I already remember what it is." When it comes to his husband and wife doing stubborn things, the black line on Zuo Xiaolan's head has become thicker. How could she not remember that when she and Ye Nantian just entered the game, they were curious about everything. I thought this was just a game, so I didn't take the characters and things inside seriously, so when the mayor of Red Lake City came to receive them in person, they actually started discussing the figure of others in front of others. What spherical body is also in shape, I don't know what he eats to be so fat and so on.
They talked happily, and while Ye Ci's face was dark, she coughed and hoped that her parents would not go on, but Zuo Xiaolan and Ye Nantian didn't realize how important this matter was, and kept talking. In the end, until the mayor's face became black, Bao said silently, "Did you come to sign the contract or come to count me?" Ye Nantian and Zuo Xiaolan realized that they were talking, That person could all hear it and there would be normal human response, and they were almost screamed in surprise, they were really anxious to dig a hole in the ground.
In that case, they did not take a good look at the contract they signed. They directly used it as evidence to remind them of the shame they had done, and immediately sealed it in the warehouse, and then forgot it as quickly as possible. Clean up.
But at this time, Ye Ci just mentioned that thing, leaving them with no concept at all for a while. Zuo Xiaolan reported that she had forgotten, and Ye Ci should not remember the idea that she was too clear. She turned to Ye Ci. Although she didn't think this possibility was very high, she still wanted her luck: "What happened when I signed the contract?" Now? So many things, I don't remember. "
"It doesn't matter if you don't remember, mom and I can immediately transfer my contract to you to read." Ye Ci looked at Zuo Xiaolan, smiled with a cocked mouth, and said softly and lightly. Zuo Xiaolan talked back and blocked.
Zuo Xiaolan looked expressionless at Ye Ci: "I don't remember, how do you remember, whether you are my daughter or not, you don't care about me."
Ye Ci raised his eyebrows indifferently, then transferred the contract from his contract page and began to read. The so-called contract things are actually sentences that ordinary people don't understand, so after Ye Ci read it for a while, Zuo Xiaolan yelled, "Don't understand, don't understand, don't read it!"
There is always a way to deal with Zuo Xiaolan's Ye Ci. Since Zuo Xiaolan said that she didn't understand, she immediately nodded and closed the contract and said, "Well, since mother you don't understand this written text, Then I will tell you in simple words. What I said to you just now is actually very simple, that is, the contract is established under the conditions of mutual assistance and equality between the two parties. In order to restrict the behavior of the two parties, once any party wants to If the contract is broken, ten times the rent of the other party will be paid at one time. "
"Ten times ..." Now it's Zuo Xiaolan's turn to start twitching. "What's the rent?"
"Yes, the rent for our shop is paid at one time. Of course, I did not charge your rent at the beginning, but it is defaulted in the system. I have already collected the rent, so if you want to breach the contract, mother, I am afraid You have to pay me ten years' rent in one lump, and ten times. "
"I ask what the rent is!" Zuo Xiaolan looked at the radian of the corner of her daughter's mouth, anxious to go up and kick her, she asked loudly.
"No more, no more than 20 million gold coins." Ye Ci stretched out **** and dangled in front of parents.
Zuo Xiaolan's pupils suddenly grew up. She looked at Ye Ci in disbelief, and pointed at her own shop and said loudly, "Dead girl, what are you talking about! You say you ca n’t eat or drink here, It is a house made of a set of stinky data in the game. Actually, you have to rent 20 million gold coins within ten years! You are my idiot! Which mentally retarded person uses real money to buy this kind of virtual stuff in the game ... "
Ye Ci wasn't angry at all, she knew that when she said this, mother was going to explode, but this was exactly the result she wanted. Zuo Xiaolan, they have never played the game, nor did they really take the things in the game seriously. They just enter the game with the idea of casual shopping. If you want them to really participate in the game, You have to find a way to tie them up. And as long as Zuo Xiaolan is tied, it is tethered to Ye Nantian. The way to tie Zuo Xiaolan is simple, and that is to make her owe a large debt ...
"Mom, if you say that, someone on the side will come to hit you." Ye Ci reminded lightly.
At this point, Zuo Xiaolan closed her mouth very successfully, and then rushed to the side of Ye Ci, and said to her, "Dead girl, you should flout me less! It turns out that I won't play the game, I will be you Huyou, now I wo n’t be fooled by you! I know that everything in the game is composed of data and is fake, including the contract you said is also fake! I tell you, I wo n’t play, this The game is too lossy, I do n’t want to lose money, I do n’t want to play !!! ”
Ye Ci nodded, and even clapped his hands: "I can't see it, mother, you have only played the game for a few days, and you even know all this."
"Hum, so don't think I'm an idiot, don't think I'm so deceiving!" Zuo Xiaolan stared at Ye Ci, feeling that he had the upper hand.
"If I remember correctly, did you receive the legal contract that the Bank of China sent to you the day before yesterday. Of course, I also have one." Ye Ci narrowed his eyes, acting like a show. Looking at Zuo Xiaolan.
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Zuo Xiaolan snorted. In her eyes, she is Rugao Buddha, Ye Ci is the grand monkey, no matter how, this grand monkey cannot get out of the palm of Rugao Buddha. Heart.
"That's the legally signed formal contract that we signed in the game. That is to say ... whether or not your store is data, but this contract is real." Ye Ci continues to smile: " If you violate the contract, the data in the game will be fed back to the bank's legal department, and the legal department will deduct your amount in the game according to the amount of your breach.
"Then I won't be online anymore!" Speaking of contracts in real life, Zuo Xiaolan's tone softened suddenly. As a flat-headed citizen, Zuo Xiaolan is most afraid of dealing with these big blocks.
"Okay, after deducting money from your game, you can deduct money from your bank ... After deducting money from the bank, if it is still not enough to pay liquidated damages ..." Ye Ci gave a slight meal and left Xiaolan's appetite hanged to the maximum: "mother, I don't know what will happen ..."
"You filial daughter! You dare to dig a pit to bury your mother!" Zuo Xiaolan finally broke out, she immediately started violently attacking Ye Ci, but was quickly judged by the system as an active attacker, but because both sides The level difference is too large, she is only limited in movement, and no further punishment is made.
Zuo Xiaolan is completely honest this time. She is sitting on a chair and watching Ye Ci starts to be both hard and soft: "Xiao ci, isn't mom afraid of losing money?"
"Mom, I'm not afraid of losing money, what are you afraid of?" Ye Ci was unmoved at all.
"But look at us now. Everyday we open the store and no one buys anything. I'm not in a hurry!" Zuo Xiaolan moved it with reason.
"I have something to worry about. Do business slowly." Ye Ci drank the last sip of western-style thick soup and looked at mother with a smile. "I don't need you to pay the rent."
"Take it slowly, take your time ..." Zuo Xiaolan muttered two words: "I want to take it slowly, but I always feel that I don't have the talent for doing business, so it is a waste of money to go on. Xiao ci, we are not big people. We do n’t have that much money to waste. Can you just think of a way to do it? "
"Mom, I know what you are thinking about. In fact, doing business in the game is not as difficult as you think. I tell you that the reason why you are not doing good business now is because the level of your current life skill is too low You see that the current players are basically 35 to 40, but all the things you sit on are more than a dozen, even if you always use newbie to enter the game, but they can choose the auction house, where Many of the equipment are eliminated by players, cheaper than stores, and cheaper than you do. In this way, your business is certainly not good. "Ye Ci began to explain to two people why business is bad, otherwise they only know their First, I don't know the second, I can never get lost in the game.
Zuo Xiaolan and Ye Nantian glanced at each other, and there was a feeling that it was such a thing. However, Zuo Xiaolan quickly responded: "So, if we want to do business, if we want a good business, we must practice skill hard?"
"This is natural. Of course, living skill is of course more advanced and more fragrant, especially if you have some recipes that other skill masters do not have, it is equivalent to monopolizing the market. This is why the higher the life The reason why skill division can make more money. "
"But ..." Ye Nantian also quickly discovered the problem: "Life skill division is very slow to upgrade, you see, we have no raw materials to practice skill, we can only go outside the city to pick up some things that others do n’t want How long does it take to train? "
"Why do you go outside the city to pick it up? You are not ordinary players, you have n’t leveled up, you get very little to pick up corpses outside the city, and it is very dangerous, especially if you want to find high-quality ingredients and cloths. If you want to go to a more dangerous area, you ca n’t go this level at all. Why do you want to go this way? ”Ye Ci is a little confused about how parents practice skill.“ Do n’t you know that there is a thing in the world called an auction house? Do n’t you know that you can collect materials for a long time yourself? "
It doesn't take everyone for granted that Ye Ci takes it for granted, especially after two people heard Ye Ci's words and returned to her in unison: "How much will it cost!"
Ye Ci started rolling her eyes, she would like to drop a few thunder now and directly slash herself to death: "Without you spending money, haven't I already given you startup funds? Why not spend it!" she I'm sure that the money they gave their parents must be stored in the warehouse and kept firmly.
"It just needs to be prepared from time to time." Zuo Xiaolan also felt very reasonable: "If I use it now, what if there is a natural disaster?"
"This is a game, there will be no natural disaster." Ye Ci has already wanted to hit the table with her head, she sometimes feels full of powerlessness towards Zuo Xiaolan and Ye Nantian.
"If the money is used up, it will be gone." This is Zuo Xiaolan's argument, and she always thinks: "I would rather keep it in the bank than spend it ..."
"The bank in the game will not save you money to pay interest." Ye Ci's voice was getting weaker and weaker, she felt that she was going to be driven crazy by Zuo Xiaolan.
"I don't care, I like to save money like this."
"When do you want to lose money?" Ye Ci finally got angry: "On the one hand, you don't want to lose money, and on the other hand, you don't want to immediately improve skill. Then tell me, when do you want to lose money? "
"I, I, I didn't say I didn't want to improve skill ..." Zuo Xiaolan suddenly felt a little guilty when she saw her daughter exploding, but she soon became quite right, and she felt nothing wrong with her. "I just don't want to spend money."
"Is there any difference between you and you who do n’t want to improve skill?" Ye Ci has to make a case: "You are only ten, you think you can go to 20, 30 or more with your current level. Is there a high-level place to pick up the remaining corpses? Even if you can? Do you think there will be many people who do n’t pick up the corpses and leave the materials to you ... "
"Anyway ..." Zuo Xiaolan, who often goes to check for leaks, certainly knows how correct Ye Ci is, but she just can't help but talk back.
"Wait until the day when you finally have it, will the game be closed!" Ye Ci finally began to shoot the table: "In this attitude, you also said that you want to upgrade skill, you also said that you do not want to lose money, I think it's you who are flickering !!! "
Zuo Xiaolan and Ye Nantian finally had nothing to say. They sat down on the stool with their heads down, listening to the reprimand of Ye Ci like a schoolboy.
"Let you make money now, you ca n’t make it. This is inevitable, but will you not spend it? Will you find a living skill teacher in Guild and give them this kind of benefits, they are afraid I ’m so happy that I ca n’t bear to spend it! ”Ye Ci, regardless of whether or not the parents are opposite, set off the posture of the people coming, and totally gave the posture to newbie.
At this time, from time to time, players pass by the door of the store, and they will look at what is happening inside the shop with a surprised look. Is it that their eyes are gone? Didn't you say that the son is quiet? Didn't you say that the son's phantom eyes are higher than the top? Didn't you say the son was stubborn? So who is that elf hunter who learned two newbie in the shop now?
"But this is your money, we have to hold you ... I'm afraid you will dowry in the future ..." Zuo Xiaolan was dog-blooded by Ye Ci, but when necessary, she was still I feel that I should work hard for my due interests.
Ye Ci heard this, and my heart suddenly became sore. She looked at the parents sitting down in front of her, only to feel that their eyes were a bit fuzzy, and she quickly blinked to make herself not too morbid. This is her parents. This is her parents. No matter what she is doing, she is thinking for herself. Suddenly, she felt that her temper was really ill-qualified. She took a deep breath, sat down, took her parents' hands, and apologized, "Parents, I'm sorry, I shouldn't Say you guys. "
Zuo Xiaolan and Ye Nantian were so confused by Ye Ci that the second monk was confused. In their hearts, Ye Ci has always been a strong child and rarely speaks in such a low voice, which makes them feel helpless. Zuo Xiaolan even hurriedly pulled Ye Ci: "Oh, oh, Xiao ci, I'm stingy, you know, I just can't bear to spend money, if you really let me spend money, I, I, I can still complete Quest! "
Speaking, Zuo Xiaolan's expression of indignation from the hero's righteousness seemed to make this commitment no different from eating her meat and drinking her blood.
Ye Nantian also fully supports his wife ’s statement. This is Ye Nantian ’s consistent style. He is definitely a wife-centered character, and it is always the same at all times.
Ye Ci smiled bitterly, her heart was even more sour, but she still patted her parents ’hand:" If you want to dowry for me, just make money quickly, I still hope that when I marry someone You send me a big dowry. "
"But, spend money ..."
"Mom, I ca n’t bear the child to be unable to trap the wolf. Nowadays, there is no such thing as a white wolf with empty gloves. If you want to make money, you must first learn to spend it. It is impossible to save the landlord by saving. Yes. "Ye Ci smiled and blocked everything the mother wanted to say. Then she got up and planned to say goodbye. Now everything she should say has been said. Now the most important thing is to leave time for the parents to think about their own words, and also ask them to think about what to do. If she continues to stay in Here, I'm afraid they will still be horny.
Ye Ci In addition to the parents' shop, I saw Bai Mo standing not far away, watching the players coming and going against the wall. She stepped forward, "What are you doing here?"
"I used to take care of my aunt's and aunt's business, but when I came here I just heard that you were teaching the business experience, so it was better to avoid it." Bai Mo smiled: "I said, your devil's claw is finally going to his home. Has anyone started to stretch out? "
"Yes, what's the matter." Ye Ci dismissed the words of Bai Mo: "Then I have finished teaching now, you can go in and take care of the business."
"Forget it, to be honest, my uncle ’s real-life craftsmanship has nothing to say. The craftsmanship in this game is really dare not compliment." Bai Mo shook his head again and again, he just came to take care of the sound but not to find abuse. Since there are stairs to go down, of course, I will not continue to toss myself.
"My Epic Level Quest has started to get the reward for the second stage." Ye Ci has never hidden Bai Mo about these things in the game, so Bai Mo naturally understands where she has done Epic Level Quest.
"What reward?" Bai Mo glanced at the Ye Ci now that Gujing's unwavering expression guessed boldly: "It won't be a very rewarding reward."
"I can't confirm yet." Ye Ci said to tell Bai Mo what he is doing now. Bai Mo also opened his mouth in surprise after knowing: "Oh my God, this is too abnormal, if you can keep accumulating medals, isn't it possible to buy ten or eight sets of that thing for sale?"
Ye Ci nodded, but she still thought it was impossible, the game planning would not be so different, leaving such a big hole for players to drill.
The two pulled a few words from each other. Suddenly, Bai Mo patted his head, and he suddenly realized: "Right, right, I think of one thing. There are too many things these days. I actually gave this thing to I forgot everything. "
"What?"
"Do you know Shengshi Guild?"
"Prosperity?" Ye Ci frowned slightly, and she certainly knew about Guild. This Guild is a hegemony in the online game industry. Not only is it large in number, but it is also supported by several large consortia. Their Guild is completely a gold-absorbing machine. It turned out that once they enter a game, they can quickly destroy the economic order of the game, and then destroy the game order. In the end, they earn enough money to leave and leave. The mess is left to ordinary players.
This Guild is not only known as the locust in the online game industry, but also dreaded by game companies. Because they have become the best weapon for game companies to destroy their opponents.
"What? They are coming to Fate?" Ye Ci narrowed his eyes, which is inevitable. In that year, Fate was actually engaged by Shengshi. Don't look at the size of Fate, but it is such a relatively small proportion of Shengshi Guild in Fate, making Fate almost closed. The last few master plans resigned, and it was for this reason that Wang Jiangnan had the opportunity to change from assistant planner to master plan behind him. He withstood the pressure in that storm, and finally turned the tide, so that Fate was brought back to life in a world full of damage. Later, many people believed that Wang Jiangnan could be called the father of Fate, but it was because he brought more players to Fate and created unparalleled glory for Fate. However, the real reason is that Wang Jiangnan alone has kept Fate.
These things are not recorded in the chronicle of Fate, and many players who participated later did not know about it, but as such a player who is bound to Fate from beginning to end, of course, for this The origins of the matter are well understood.
Counting the time, it is indeed the time when the prosperous age will enter Fate. It seems that she has been so comfortable in recent days that she has forgotten it. If you don't do risk defense now, I'm afraid that it won't be too late.
Bai Mo is not a rebirth, naturally I don't know what will happen after this. But given the bad reputation of the prosperous world, he was naturally a little nervous.
"Yeah, I heard it's coming to Fate." Bai Mo frowned: "This group of locusts are coming to Fate again. I really don't know what will happen to Fate after Fate."
Ye Ci tilted his lips and didn't speak. If she does not change history on a large scale, then the development of history will not change, so she is not worried about this at all.
"By the way, do you know how many people are in the heyday?"
"Many, many, I don't know much about it, just know that they killed a few holographic games with human sea tactics." Ye Ci is honest, she now can't remember how many prosperous players entered the Fate at that time. I only know a lot, just as much as ox hair.
"There are ten million." Bai Mo lowered his voice and secretly took a sip: "One hundred percent of the current number of Fate people."
"It really is a lot of people."
"Now every continent is guessing, which continent will they choose to log on to the server?" Bai Mo frowned: "You must not come to the eastern continent, otherwise our eastern continent will suffer."
Ye Ci narrowed his eyes and smiled half-true: "If I have ten million soldiers, I will let them land on four continents and kill each continent."
Bai Mo listened to Ye Ci, and his face was black. "You crow's mouth, don't talk nonsense."
Ye Ci is still laughing, but there is a lot of bitterness in the smile, in fact she is telling the truth. That's how the heyday Guild landed in the game. They divided Guild into four, and each continent landed a branch, and then eroded the economy and game order of that continent like a locust. Soon, the instability of Fate was exposed. She remembers that year was the storm, which killed many retail players who had no time to close, and also caused many investors like Dong Yin and their families to bankrupt and jump.
"Bai Mo, from now on, so the Gold Group and Guild should be increased." Ye Ci said quietly.
"Huh?" Bai Mo said for a moment: "This will make many players dissatisfied."
"If you are not satisfied, please be dissatisfied. We must first accumulate a sum of money to resist the risks after the prosperity of Fate." Ye Ci only feels heavy. She remembers being a victim of the storm that nearly killed her family. Even if she is born again, even if everything comes back, the kind of skin-cutting pain that year was so deeply imprinted in her heart that she could not linger.
It is impossible for her to fight against the prosperity with her own power. However, using her strengths and the advantages of the rebirth, she can still protect her important people in this storm. But, what exactly is to be done?
"You expected them to return to the eastern continent?" Bai Mo's heart tightened.
"I have just said that if I were the head of the prosperous world, I would definitely not let the two goods of Guild on a continent ~ IndoMTL.com ~, then it will be the enemy of the entire Fate billion. Ye Ci looked at Bai Mo, she thought, Bai Mo knew what she was going to say.
Bai Mo took a cool breath: "You mean ..."
Ye Ci smiled bitterly: "I think the major Guilds have already realized this problem, and they may have started to accumulate funds to resist this risk."
"But game gold coins cannot resist risks!" Bai Mo shook his head: "As soon as they enter the game, they will naturally bring a lot of money into the game. At that time, the money we accumulated will not be wasted."
"Of course you can't resist risks with money, this is personally known. But items can." Ye Ci took a deep breath.
"What is it?"
"Betting, so many items consumed in the game, so many Guild, everyone bet one, and eventually there will be a Guild will bet." Ye Ci smiled, it is impossible for her now how to resist the onset of the golden age The method tells Bai Mo that it is too dangerous. Because she does not want to tell anyone that she is a rebirth, otherwise it will bring unpredictable danger to the other party. Bai Mo is her important person. She cannot put Bai Mo in this danger.
Bai Mo looked at the smile on Ye Ci's face, and the fear in his heart was relieved a lot. This has been the case since childhood, as long as Ye Ci shows such a smile, it seems to represent that there is no crisis in this matter, and it is so in everything.
Although sometimes Bai Mo will still worry, but more often he chooses to believe. Because only believe can represent his greatest support and understanding. (To be continued.
