Chapter 294 Profiteer! (Second update)
On the same day, Chen Rang came to Gonggong’s shop and prepared to visit Gonggong’s new guild.
Now that most of the benefits and channels are monopolized by the major guilds, opening a new guild undoubtedly requires more courage and strength, so that you can get a piece of the cake of the major guilds.
Chen Rang did not quit his current guild rashly. After all, Gonggong said very well before that he wanted to establish a guild where everyone is equal and free of exploitation and oppression. But what he said and what he did were two different things. Before he saw the results in person, he I don’t want to bet recklessly and become another guild’s leek.
Here, he immediately saw the three main creative members of the guild: Gonggong, Warlord and Taiyin.
"Gonggong" said that he had a good relationship with Gonggong, but after seeing Gonggong in person, he was still a little confused.
Gonggong can be said to be a hot virtual idol recently. She is lively and cheerful and likes to drive. She often battles wits with the administrators of the platform, wandering on the road of being blocked and unblocked every day.
However, her recent break out of the industry was because she cried for Far Traveler. She cried so hard on the screen that she broke out of the industry, which was called "no acting skills at all, just feelings".
There is no way, people are all superficial creatures. When a little loli with white hair and red eyes cries like this, it is difficult not to make people feel sympathy and like her.
Seeing Chen Rang coming in, Gonggong immediately waved his long sleeves happily and said cheerfully: "Chen Rang, you are indeed here."
She diligently prepared various foods for Chen Rang and said happily: "I've already heard from Gonggong. Are you planning to join our guild?" "
That, I'm still considering. Also, what is your relationship with Gonggong? Why are their names so similar?"
" The relationship between fans and idols. We usually get along well, so she helped me recruit people. She said that you are very good and highly qualified, and you are also a Mu Kui madman, which is particularly suitable for our guild." "
Mu Kui madman is with you . Does it have anything to do with the guild?"
"Inhumanity is also one of my cute points."
"Huh?"
The warlord kicked Gonggong away and said to Chen Rang: "Ignore her, she just speaks out. An idiot."
"Idiots are stronger than a violent maniac like you!"
Chen Rang looked at the tall woman in front of him and recognized the woman as the warlord who was live broadcasting with Gonggong.
The other party is a cold-faced elder sister. She often wears armor in the live broadcast room. She is unsmiling but often complains about Gonggong. The expression of disgust she occasionally shows is very popular among some perverts.
Although the other Taiyin doesn't talk much and is always silly, her sheepdog-like personality is very popular with some people. People often express their desire to adopt Taiyin and take her home, and then give her a bath and give her a bath every day. Take her out for a walk.
In short, the combination of these three people is quite unique, and Chen Rang occasionally listens to it.
After confirming the identities of the three people, Chen Rang felt that the other party was less suspicious, but then asked: "Aren't you still broadcasting now, are you?"
Gonggong got up from the ground and asked with a smirk: " Don’t worry, no, our affairs will be despicable in the future. I don’t want to damage my image among my fans. Why, are you afraid that your little girlfriend will know and you go behind her back to meet other women?"
"...How is that possible?"
"Oh, just do it. Who doesn't know you like Mu Kui? Tell uncle, how are you doing? Do you want me to help you... Gua!"
Gonggong was kicked out again, and the warlord again With a dissatisfied expression, he said seriously: "Can you be more serious?"
"I've already accepted it!"
"Alas..."
Sighing, the warlord faced Chen Rang. Just as he was about to explain, he found that Chen Rang had already submitted Apply for membership.
Tilting her head in confusion, she asked curiously: "Why did you quit the membership so quickly?" "You two
fight so naturally, I guess you should always be like this. It's such a non-hierarchical place, so there's no disadvantage in joining."
"Good eyesight. ."
The Overseer nodded appreciatively and held Chen Rang's hand: "I am the Overseer and welcome you to join."
"Chen Rang, I accept the concession."
With the first player joining, what happens next is Much easier to handle.
Gonggong did not let its own alt account join, but continued to attract players to join the club, allowing them to participate in this battle against capital.
The withdrawal of many players aroused the alarm of some people. When they found out that Gonggong was poaching people, the voices of dissatisfaction began to gather, and gradually formed a small-scale denunciation in the game inn.
[The big anchor is bullying people! ]
[Don’t think that just because you are cute, you can poach people randomly. The game is not owned by your family. ]
[The one upstairs seems to be really owned by them. ]
[Hmm... Then it's not right to poach people randomly! The talents we have worked so hard to cultivate are just poached? ]
[Support account ban! 】
【If this thief is not eliminated, it will be difficult to quell the public's anger! ]
[That’s right, meat-selling anchors should honestly develop their own mainstream market, and don’t come to the game to spread hatred! ]
[Yes, yes, you are better off wearing less clothes than anything else! In addition to your talents, driving and making jokes every day, what else do you do? 】
【Upstairs, it seems that this is enough, the business is already very good. ]
[Yeah, I'm a fan. 】
Faced with these scoldings, Gonggong didn’t give up at all.
Who is she?
A well-known conspirator among the Iron Guards and an expert in talking nonsense.
As soon as the key was pressed, Gonggong began to quarrel with the Confucians, greeting each one one by one, and soon killed each other and threw away his armor.
【Bullying? I bullied you and you bit me! 】
【I am so cute, I am so domineering, I just don’t want to see people suffer, I just want to liberate everyone! 】
【You all speak grandly, but you know what you actually did. You are clearly exploiting other players, so why don't you act like you are doing charity? 】
【Say I'm a free anchor? The only person freer than me is your mother! ]
——Gonggong

Gong Gong is online-——
[Come on, there are thousands of people in the Sajia family, I’m afraid you cheap dogs won’t make it? ]
——Gonggong

The Workers’ Communist Party is online——
【Continue, I haven’t sprayed enough yet, let’s continue fighting for 300 rounds! 】
On this day, players saw the horror of being dominated by a cosmic troll.
She is well-read, she has a eloquent tongue, she quotes from other sources, she starts wars everywhere until she scolds others to the point where they break their defenses, and one by one they use foul language and their accounts are banned.
This scolding war was a delight to watch among the melon-eating crowd, and also made Gonggong’s trolls famous.
Everyone has seen the horror of this little white-haired lolita, and the second setting about Gonggong will definitely include a vicious image, which further breaks the image of Gonggong.
Looking at Gonggong's chat history, Chen Rang sighed with emotion: "You are really good. One person scolded hundreds of people, and others did not dare to speak."
Gonggong sucked the watermelon juice and stood up proudly. And Chest said: "I let them. Otherwise I can scold all their ancestors." "But you went to such trouble, it shouldn't be as simple as scolding people."
Gonggong gave a thumbs up: "That must be Yes, someone must pay attention to this matter, otherwise it will just be a small-scale self-pleasure. The pressure of public opinion is only one part of it, and there will be more after that."
"And?"
"Yes. Chanting sutras is only one part of it, and it cannot replace it. Criticism of weapons. We must have our own interests in the game, otherwise we will not be successful."
"What is that?" Chen Rang asked confused, "Currently, most of the ingredients are monopolized, what else do we have? What can be monopolized?"
"Of course it is the most common, but the most important thing is salt."
Chen Rang thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Due to their first-mover advantage and financial advantage, large guilds have now monopolized most industries, leaving latecomers to follow their lead.
However, salt is too common, and the profit is almost non-existent. As a result, it escaped the monopoly situation.
Moreover, Lin'an City does not produce salt, so all salt needs to be transported by sea.
Once every ten days, a ship carrying salt will come here and leave after each sale.
However, trying to monopolize such a basic thing is also risky. If it is not small, it will fall into your own hands. There are various possibilities in the middle, making it difficult to predict what will happen.
But Gonggong said it didn't matter.
"It is true that the salt monopoly cannot last for too long, but as long as you do specific things at specific times, you can achieve the appropriate results. A lot of public opinion war may be needed by then. Chen asked you to prepare first."
Although There were still some doubts, but Gonggong's attitude gave Chen Rang a lot of confidence, and then he made preparations.
After watching Chen Rang leave, Gonggong left the game and began to deal with matters.
Thousands of small cells are operating in Lin'an City. These small cells are constantly collecting intelligence and feeding it back to Gonggong.
In addition to the alts that were mixed in the guild, there were also a large number of alts that were mixed with NPCs. They began to collect information from all levels, summarize it, and form a tight network.
Terrifying computing power is flowing, a large amount of information is gathering, and the three weapon spirits have even begun to join forces. The computing power generated by this can account for various situations, and even produce a short-term magical effect of predicting the future.
This function is usually used by the Iron Guards to briefly predict the results of future battles, and the situation of space war is more diverse and complex than the current situation, and the possibility of inaccurate prediction is higher.
But now, just predicting the direction of the game will be much more accurate.
Soon, the information Gonggong needed was obtained.
The trumpet and the players took action together, and the cannibalization of salt began. A large amount of salt was bought quietly, and the place used as a temporary warehouse was quickly filled with salt.
Meanwhile, the guild's revenge has arrived.
Many purchasing channels began to express their inability to cooperate with Gonggong and others, and all items could no longer be sold to Gonggong and others. The guild's senior management began to use NPCs to put pressure on Gonggong and others, and put forward favorable opinions.
"Either apologize to people, or stop playing."
In response, Gonggong skillfully exhaled through his nose, took a sip of the dough stick in his mouth, and then said: "Things like shit are not enough to threaten Play." Check."
The wrestling between the two sides began, and Gonggong kept eating the extra salt, silently waiting for the opportunity to resist.
Soon, Gonggong's opportunity came.
This day, the wind is sunny and sunny.
The sect gate of Linhua City was opened, and a group of practitioners filed out and announced the order from the immortal.
Outside the sect, a group of players had been waiting for a long time. They stood on tiptoes like quails, watching the announcement, wanting to know what the sect wanted.
The practitioners of the Food God Sect are the top managers of Linhua City. They manage the place with transcendent power and issue various tasks from time to time.
Practitioners are extraordinary and holy, and the resources they can control are far greater than ordinary NPCs. Each large-scale task means a lot of benefits and is worth the players' efforts.
Facing the players in front of them, these practitioners seemed to have lost their parents, and said expressionlessly: "The Supreme Elder said that he wants to eat salted fish, the more the better."
After hearing this, the guild members There was joy on their faces.
The purchase price of the sect is twenty times the usual price, and the quality is not particularly important when purchasing, as long as it is available, it will be accepted.
If there are enough, there will be additional rewards, which is usually an opportunity used by various large guilds to obtain additional resources.
Linhua City is close to the sea, so fish are not uncommon. So as long as you buy more salt, you can make salted fish and make a lot of money.
But just when they were about to buy salt, the player responsible for purchasing was surprised to find...
there was no salt.
The last bag of salt has been bought, and the shelves of the salt shop are empty, with almost no grain of salt left.
It will take five days for the salt shipped by sea to be delivered, and there is a quantity limit for purchasing from Nan'an City. The players responsible for buying fish are already ready, and in order to take the lead, they are actively snapping up a large amount of sea fish.
But there was no trace of salt, which is usually the most easily available.
The unusual situation alerted the guild managers, but before they could notice, news came from a remote corner of Linhua City.
There's salt there!
The members of the guild rushed there immediately and found that it was actually Gonggong's shop.
Salt is indeed sold inside, but the price is ridiculously high. Salt that usually cost more than ten cents now actually costs three taels of silver. The soaring prices made all the people in charge feel a little nervous.
Suppressing their anger, the people in charge found Taiyin, who was dozing out of boredom, and said with an unkind expression, "Where is Gonggong?"
"My eldest daughter has returned to her parents' home. I have the final say here." Taiyin said.
"Stop playing with this setting! Where did your parents come from in the game!" "
I don't know, that's what she told me anyway."
"The price..."
"That's the price, if you want to buy it, no Just buy it, it's as simple as that."
He gritted his teeth and looked at Taiyin. Most of the people responsible for the excitement turned around and left. Only a few gritted their teeth and reluctantly bought the salt.
After all, the fish waits for no one, and it will be damaged if you let it go.
Others walked around Linhua City and found that there was really no salt, so they had to return to Gonggong's shop and saw that the price of salt had actually risen to four taels.
These profiteers!
