Chapter 199 Upgraded (first update)
As an interstellar civilization with the existence of gods, the influence of gods is very terrifying.
In the past, there were sects as the middle layer, and the influence of gods on the secular world would be buffered. The will of gods would be translated once by the sect, and the impact on the secular world would be much reduced.
But now, the voice of the gods directly rings in the ears of the believers, and the will of the gods directly impacts their consciousness, turning them into speculators who can only buy special items and then resell them at high prices.
A large number of speculative companies were established overnight, and related futures markets for special items were established. Each futures item would be snapped up quickly after it appeared, and its price would soar instantly.
And some believers will find that after participating once, the money comes in too fast through this process.
If you do nothing, you will get 20% of the income from reselling the things. The purchase price of 4 million will be converted into 4.8 million, without even touching the goods.
Generally, businesses that make money quickly are in the criminal law, but this one that is not in the criminal law makes money even faster.
The previous transaction price of 300 million faiths was already a sky-high price, but as more people join in, this record is being broken every day. Some special items that are of no use have even been sold for more than 1 billion, and there is still room for continued development. trend.
Rich people are using this thing to make money crazily, and civilians are no exception.
A bright-minded person can start raising funds. Common people can save money and save money for a week to accumulate 100 Faith, and 100 Faith can be used as a share to raise funds. Forty thousand civilians can try to queue up to buy a special item, which can be converted into two if they are sold. One hundred or even five hundred beliefs.
And as more and more funds are raised, what should we do if we run out of special items?
Smarter ones emerged.
They put out a pre-order.
Although the items are not available, we requisition them in advance, then allow them to be bought and sold on their own, and finally deliver them after they are available.
Even if it takes a few years to wait, we have already made arrangements with Tianzun Apostle and will not fail to deliver the goods.
This basic gameplay is just one of them. As the trading market continues to expand, all kinds of weird disks have begun to appear. The original pre-order disks can no longer satisfy everyone's appetite.
After all, no matter how much you pre-order, the laboratory's production capacity is only so high. One hundred a day is already its best, but the demand for the entire Tiandao network has reached one million.
Players did not notice this problem at first, until they met by chance on Meow Planet and were surprised to find out why food prices had become so high recently.
Meow Planet is an agricultural planet, and there is a local gourmand as a reality interventionist, so their external demand is not high, and they spend most of their time exporting food to the warriors fighting against the Shadow.
However, because the front line was temporarily stable, when she accidentally wanted to sell some food, she was surprised to find that the price of food had increased five times.
Then I checked the price situation in other areas through the Tiandao Network. I accidentally found that prices in most areas have begun to skyrocket. However, not only have there been no civil unrest in these areas, but everyone is very generous.
Taking a spaceship to the largest commercial planet nearby, they met by chance and found that this place became particularly strange.
As a port city, there are usually a large number of merchant ships docked here, and merchants from all over the place come in an endless stream, making it look very lively.
But now, the port has become extremely deserted, and the overall situation seems to be a prelude to depression.
But unlike the deserted port, the residents here seem particularly happy.
There was joy on their faces, and each little animal was looking at various data using their own personal terminal, and from time to time they would cheer for the increase in data.
The shops were closed, usually closed. In the only bar that was open, the octopus boss wiped his wine glass in boredom while keeping his eyes on the screen and looking at the data.
When Yunwen walked in here riding a foodie and a Maine Coon cat, the boss just glanced at the two cats and the mouse, and then said: "Welcome, can we only have ice water?"
"Why is there only ice water?" The gourmet owner asked in surprise, "Didn't we have more than 300 cocktails and various delicacies when we came last time?"
"It's out of stock. By the way, there are still some food in the refrigerator. Can you make your own? . If you make me a portion, I won’t charge you any money. I haven’t eaten for more than ten days.”
“How did you survive?” he asked curiously.
"How many legs do I have?"
After discovering that the octopus boss actually only had two legs, they met by chance and understood how the other person survived.
There are not many ingredients in the refrigerator, but I can still make food for several people.
The Maine Coon cat was not polite and opened the refrigerator. After a while, he made a lot of food and gave it to his companion.
Smelling the fragrant food, Boss Octopus finally turned his attention from the screen to the food and started to eat.
After a few mouthfuls, its legs and feet began to grow, although it was just a bud.
After finishing his meal, Boss Octopus temporarily stopped looking at the data, and then looked at the group of people for observation.
After staring for a while, he said firmly: "Are you from the agricultural planet?" "
Yes, how do you know?" he asked curiously.
"Only people from agricultural planets are so calm now. We have recently become obsessed with stock trading, and my assets have tripled. It's a pity that I should have mortgaged my bar. I will make more now."
After hearing that it could make money, foodies became interested.
He came close to the octopus boss, resisting the urge to bite him for a taste, and asked curiously: "How to make money?" "It's
very simple, download this program, then gather some faith and buy a share. By the way, recommend me, I can get some rewards, and you can also pay less handling fees."
Although the food master is one of the gods, he has been craving for the Maine Coon cat's fried rice. He has not been back recently, and he doesn't know The stock market is an extension of the gods' orders.
He tentatively invested some faith and bought some stocks that looked good to him. After a while, he saw that his total faith was rising slowly, and his eyes began to shine.
"What is this? The stock market is great! Come on, Stud! Ah, it's doubled!" In
a few minutes, the gourmet owner won a great victory, doubling his net worth, making him feel like he was born Stock god!
"We meet by chance, Maine Coon cat, lend me your savings quickly, I can still win. No, I should go to my believers to ask for money and let them raise funds for me to buy stocks!" The
foodie said almost instantly Captured by the stock market and indulged in the happiness brought by the growth of faith.
When they met by chance, they curiously walked to the gourmet owner, and then discovered that the stock market in the game was too detailed.
She didn't know much about the stock market, but she always played live games when playing games, and there were players in the live broadcast room who understood this, and she was shocked after watching it.
[I remember that there was no such thing as the stock market before. Did Fangcheng Studio create a stock market in order to cooperate with "Laboratory"? 】
[It seems so, but why wasn’t the player notified? Oh, the apostles cannot participate for fear of insider trading. They actually took this into consideration. 】
【What we are doing is a bit too real, and the stock market is a bit big. There is no ceiling for rises and falls, so the fluctuations will be too strong. ]
[Look at the historical trends... Hiss! The bubble is too big! The total assets of the current stock market are dozens of times those in the early days of creation, and only ten days have passed? Once this thunder explodes, no one can escape. ]
[And the trading volume began to decline, which was a prelude to thunder. Let gourmets stay away from this thing! 】
The unexpected encounter also quickly reacted, knowing that this thing was untouchable. People can't make money beyond the scope of their knowledge. Foodies know nothing about this thing and can't touch it at all.
Pulling the food owner, she was just about to tell the food owner to retreat quickly, when she heard the food owner shout: "Why is it falling? It's going back up!"
[Hurry up and let it go! 】
"Don't wait, I have a hunch that it will rise back! I want to increase my position now! There is a loan button there, look at me..."
Just when the gourmet owner was about to be doomed, the Maine Coon cat took decisive action.
It slapped the gourmet owner unconscious, then pinched the other person's meatballs and chose to sell. Fortunately, he did not lose money in the end, but made a little profit.
But if it were later, it would be tragic.
The stock market, which was still booming just now, suddenly took a turn for the worse in an instant. The bubbles evaporated in an instant, leaving only a pile of chicken feathers.
Players only discovered the stock market in the game today, but the first day was the day it died. This stock market that had been established for just ten days directly ushered in the end. The hard work of countless NPCs disappeared here, and in the end only countless sorrows were left. .
How happy they were yesterday, they will be miserable today.
Stocks that were still trading at high prices yesterday have turned into waste paper today. The greed born of gods was ultimately magnified countless times, causing animals and plants to lose their money.
But what burst this bubble was actually just a small report.
Among the gods, the only ones who are not interested in the huge trading market for special items are the doubters.
He was born full of doubts about everything. After discovering the stock market, He did not rush in excitedly. Instead, he and his followers looked at this thing suspiciously and tried to figure out what it was.
The biggest enemy of greed is thinking. As thinking deepens, doubters discover that this thing cannot create wealth.
It's like a magnifying glass that magnifies the number, but the essence of the number doesn't change.
Moreover, speculators continued to transfer and transfer wealth throughout the process. The gods also participated in this carnival, and their fate greatly increased the speed of the bubble's expansion.
Seeing the true nature of the thing, the Skeptical Believers began to write reports, and this report caused some people to wake up and start evacuating.
It would be okay if only some people were there, but speculators who sensed that the wind was going in the wrong direction also began to withdraw.
This withdrawal brought panic, and the false prosperity lasted only a short time, and today it crashed.
Seeing the stock index, the octopus bartender beside him couldn't sit still.
It watched the stock index collapse from tens of thousands, then below five digits, to four digits.
It doesn't even dare to blink, so every time it blinks, it means its wealth has shrunk by half.
From millionaire to millionaire, it only took a few minutes.
After accurately calculating his wealth, he found that he currently owed millions in debt. He had borrowed a large amount of money from his bar multiple times, and then invested it all in the stock market. Now he has nothing.
After thinking about it, Boss Octopus discovered that he still had another movable asset, which was a spaceship.
After getting into the spaceship, it decisively chose to run away, leaving only an empty bar and the bewildered strangers standing in place.
The world is so big, it can still be a pirate.
Looking up, he unexpectedly discovered that a large number of spaceships were rising into the sky, and a large number of residents fled to the dark side of the galaxy to join the pirates.
It doesn't matter if the pirates don't accept it, they can start their own business.
A large number of bankrupt civilians joined the pirate organization. Tiandao Network ushered in its second major version update in a very short period of time. The gods who had already earned a lot of faith were stunned when they saw this result. They did not expect this to happen. matter.
At the critical moment, the Lord God had no choice but to take action.
The God of Wealth, who had amassed the most money, was hung in the land of the gods. Everyone who passed by could spit at him, and all the properties of the gods were confiscated to make up for the losses of all living beings.
The situation of all sentient beings had reached a point where they had to be saved, but He found that even if he took action, he would not know how to deal with this complicated debt problem.
Seeing that pirates had begun to breed and spread, the desperate Lord had no choice but to find the only person who could possibly solve this problem, Fang Cheng.
After hearing the Lord God's plight, Fang Cheng, who was still in the laboratory just now, sighed helplessly.
"Don't you think this question is a bit excessive?" Fang Cheng said.
In front of him, a group of gods lowered their heads and accepted Fang Cheng's education.
"Special items are a good thing. Some things can be solved quickly with special items, but I think these things should not include finance. You are the gods, and you should see the consequences of this thing, but why do you still do it? "
I'm sorry..."
"No need to apologize. This is something you should learn from. Please pay attention to it next time."
Fang Cheng calculated with his fingers and nodded and said, "But it's okay. After this crash, it will happen in about a hundred years." No problem."
After hearing that it would only take a hundred years to recover, the Lord God breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Fang Cheng continued to add: "But most of the gods will be finished. You have overdrawn your faith, and this cause and effect will be passed back through death. But don't worry, your laws will be integrated into the network of heaven, so that The Tiandao network has become stronger. And I feel that it is actually good that some small Tiandao have returned."
Hearing that their consciousness would disappear, the faces of the gods turned pale again.
Looking at each other, they have begun to prepare for a divine battle to eliminate some guys in advance and increase their chances of survival.
Seeing that another catastrophe was about to happen, the Lord God quickly asked: "Is there any other way?"
Fang Cheng counted with his fingers again, then nodded and said: "Yes, find a creditor and let him pay all the debts." Next, you just need to work for him. Well, this method is fine. Don’t worry, you only need to work for a few hundred years, and you can almost pay it off." After hearing
Fang Cheng's arrangement, the Lord God breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked expectantly He said: "So, who is that creditor? Could it be you?"
"You are overthinking it. If it were me, you can't afford the cause and effect. Don't worry, I have other arrangements."
The next day , the new Lord God takes office.
Tian Xuan, upgraded!
