Chapter 71 China Strategy
Rose said: "She had diarrhea and couldn't bear it anymore, so she went offline to rest. She said she would come back online in the morning."
I carried Rose to my throne and put her down, and then summoned the undead NPCs in the guild to participate in making the antidote. The specialty of our guild is the manufacturing of large equipment. All we need to prepare a large amount of antidotes is a large mixer, which is easy to handle. After half an hour we had a huge mixing bucket. After cleaning it, the guard followed my instructions and started adding ingredients. After the ingredients are complete, add a large amount of water that has been soaked in ghost soil and stone, and then start the mixer to start working.
This super blender is made of welded steel and has a stirring rod inside for breaking the medicine. The power of rotation is completely done by manpower. Anyway, our guild has so many totem dragons, so labor is not a problem. This big guy can make 100,000 copies of the antidote at one time, which is absolutely fast.
After the first batch of finished products came out, I quickly asked everyone to take them and distribute them to every online player and their magic pets. Except for those that were used immediately, I ordered the rest to be bottled. Many people in the guild are not online. After bottling, whoever needs it can go to the designated place to get it. The remaining antidote cannot be wasted. Everyone in the guild must carry a few bottles with them according to the amount of magic pets they carry to prevent secondary infection.
After everything was arranged, I returned to the conference hall. Rose and everyone had taken the antidote. Although they were still not feeling well, at least the problem was not serious. Seeing me entering, Rose immediately asked, "Has everything been arranged?"
"Yes. Everything has been arranged. The portions of the players in the guild have been set aside in advance. If there is still some left, I asked them to carry it with everyone to prevent secondary infection."
Ah Wei immediately asked: "The people in our guild have been solved, but what about other guilds?"
"We won't talk about this for now. I think it's best for you all to go offline and take a rest first. Otherwise, the system will forcibly kick people." In order to understand the medicine, everyone worked very hard, so I had to let them rest first. Besides, it is already early in the morning, even though "Zero" already had a semi-sleep function when it was last upgraded. But it’s still impossible not to sleep.
"Then we will have a meeting here tomorrow morning." Rose made a decisive decision.
Everyone nodded and went offline to rest, but Rose grabbed me and said, "Husband, wait a minute, I have something to tell you."
"What's going on?"
"Before morning, you'd better take someone to make a few large blenders and produce more 'medicine' bottles."
"What do you want to do?"
"I just have an idea, but whether to adopt it or not can be decided after we discuss it in the morning. Just do it first. Regardless of whether you use this method or not, at least these things cannot escape and must be built."
"Okay then, I'll let them process it right now. You've had a hard time at school these two days, right? Go offline and take a rest."
"Yeah." Rose kissed me and disappeared.
What a lovely little woman. I smiled and went to inform the NPC craftsman to process a few more pieces of equipment. I was busy until the appointed time for the meeting in the morning. Ten large mixers are lined up in the square. As long as they are operated at full capacity, these equipment can process the amount required by all Chinese players within a few hours. But I haven't finished the bottle Rose mentioned. Although there is a fixed production line for that thing, after all, the usage was not very large before. Suddenly I was asked to rush the work and there was nothing I could do. The production line couldn't be changed.
After Rose went online, she looked at the mixers lined up in the square and praised: "It moves so fast!"
"Of course, how can you not fulfill my wife's instructions?"
"Why are you so sweet today?" Rose dragged my face with her hands and pulled my head down: "Let me taste if it's honey."
"Hmph! Cough cough cough! Look no further!" Ah Wei's voice appeared from beside us.
I hugged the rose and said, "I call this romance. What do you know!"
Ying suddenly came from behind and pressed Ah Wei's shoulder and said, "What romance do you tell him? He is only half as good as you."
"What do you mean half?" Ah Wei asked, looking at the eagle.
Eagle smiled and said: "Romance only accounts for the left half. Without romance, there is only romance!"
The gold coin also came out from the other side: "Ying, what you said is wrong. Who said my husband doesn't understand romance."
"Does he understand?"
"Of course." Gold Coin rebutted Eagle's words.
Hongyue suddenly came over and said: "What Jin Coin said is absolutely right. She is a waver, and Ah Wei is slow. The two of them are romantic together."
"Hahahaha!" Anhui laughed.
I clapped my hands and said, "It's so refreshing to make a joke so early in the morning! Okay, now let's get down to business."
"What's going on?" Hongyue was not online last night. She only found out that the antidote had returned when she got online this morning. She had just come from the antidote distribution point.
Rose said: "Let's go to the conference hall first and wait for everyone to arrive."
"All right."
We waited in the conference hall for a while before the main members of the guild arrived. Rose began to say to everyone: "There are two things to discuss when we are called together this time. The first is the issue of the antidote. This plague outbreak is very serious. Fortunately, Ziri got the antidote in time. But although We have treated them ourselves, but most players have not been able to recover yet, so we need to discuss how to deal with the antidote in the future."
"Does such a simple matter still need to be discussed?" The door of the conference hall was suddenly pushed open, and two people appeared at the door.
"Who are you? How did you get in?" Hongyue jumped up and raised the staff.
"Dalong?" I recognized these two people at a glance. They are the two people we met in Qiankun Gourd. When there was a flood in the gourd, I was forced to plead with Rose and put them both into the space of the Mother Earth to allow them to take refuge. Later, when I came out of the gourd, I remembered that I opened the space door and did not close it for a long time in Steel City. , I always thought they had left the space gate and left our city. We happened to meet each other when I took Wei Na and the others to school, and we almost fell in love. Fortunately, I was deceived. At that time, people around this man called him Dalong, but I didn’t know the name of the female ghost player at all. Because I didn’t expect to meet again, I never asked.
Rose stood up from the seat next to me and hurriedly grabbed Hongyue. Hongyue asked in confusion: "Do you know each other?"
Rose nodded and asked Dalong, "Xiaoshi, why are you still here?"
Xiaoshi? It turns out that this female player from the ghost clan is named Xiaoshi! yes! There is no way Rose could not have known their names after being locked up with them in the space gate for so long.
Xiaoshi said awkwardly: "I'm sorry! We got lost!"
Boom! All the people around the table fell under the table.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Xiaoshi felt even more embarrassed. She blushed and explained: "We actually came out of that space gate a long time ago, but the surrounding area is a factory-like place, full of steel and running machines."
So they really came out when I opened the space gate in Steel City.
Xiaoshi continued: "But your city is so big, we walked around for a long time but couldn't find the city gate!"
"Halo! There is no city gate in Steel City at all. It's strange that you can find it!" Ah Wei couldn't help but interjected.
"Ah? There's no door? We don't know!" Xiaoshi had the same expression on her face. "We wanted to go out through the gate. But we couldn't find it after looking for it. Finally, we finally found a portal that was half submerged in water. But after crossing, we arrived at another strange city. Over there we I couldn’t find the door, there was sea water all around, and there were so many warships, I thought I was at a military base!”
Eagle explained: "The underwater portal you passed through is a super sea portal used by our large shipyard to directly transport large warships to the base. You are probably arriving at Tianmen Island, our outpost."
Xiaoshi said with a confused look: "Anyway, we couldn't find the exit, and we found many NPCs but couldn't find out why. Later, we finally met a player, and he sent us to the edge of the teleportation array and suddenly When we were called away, we thought we could leave at that time, but after we entered, we found that the teleportation array was a dedicated area with only a few target points."
Hong Yue said: "Eighty percent of what you entered is a transnational teleportation array."
"Transnational teleportation array? No wonder it's so huge." Xiaoshi suddenly said excitedly: "By the way, we teleported from there to a city in the middle of the mountains. That city is so strange, long and thin, with mountains on both sides. Our map displays are all out of order. Is that a foreign country?"
Rose replied: "That is a multinational junction, but you are not members of our guild, so you cannot show the map wherever you go."
"Tch! Why are you showing off!" Dalong said disdainfully: "Why don't we just have more cities!"
"Dalong. We have not offended you. Please be polite when you speak." Ying and them also hid in the space door together at the beginning, so they knew each other. But since the eagle calls him Dalong, it means that his name is also Dalong.
"You haven't offended me, but I just can't stand it, can't you?"
Hongyue slapped the table, causing the cups on the table to clatter. "Be careful what you say, don't give you face that you don't want. Even if you are a god after entering Essinger, you have to keep a low profile with your tail between your legs. Don't think of yourself as the best in the world."
Su Mei, who was sitting next to me, suddenly said, "Sister Hongyue, don't be angry. This uncle has just reached menopause. You are a normal person and should be patient."
"Why are you so uneducated, you little brat? No one cares about your life, right?"
boom! Eagle also slapped his palm on the table. "You are deliberately looking for trouble today, right?"
Xiaoshi anxiously pulled Dalong and apologized to us: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, don't argue with him. He's so naughty and his brain doesn't make the decision when he gets excited."
"What are you talking about? My brain is very clear. These people are not sober." Dalong pointed at us and shouted excitedly: "You guys, it's amazing to form a guild? If there are more people, the city Bigger and stronger? You are just a player. It's just a game. What's the point of showing off your power?"
A slight smile appeared on my face. After Rose saw my smile, she quietly returned to my side and whispered into my ear as if speaking privately: "What are you laughing at?"
"you guess?"
The inscrutable smile on my face stumped the rose. But Rose is my main think tank after all, and she immediately whispered into my ear again and said, "You want to get a dog."
"Correct answer, you'll get a reward." I tapped her mouth, but Rose bit her lip, causing me to scream out without noticing.
Ah Wei came over and whispered: "You are still telling me that you two are the real losers!"
"Go on, are you jealous of our good relationship?" Rose hugged my neck and said, "The gold coins won't save you any worries, right?"
"I don't have one!" Ah Wei was disappointed and went back.
I stood up with a smile and walked over to pull away Ying and Hongyue, who were already about to take action. If it were a step later, the two of them would really go up and fight the dragon. I held them down first and then said to Dalong: "Although your words are a little choked, I understand what you mean. It does make sense."
The faces of Ying, Hongyue and Dalong changed. Except for Rose and Sumei, everyone else was confused as to why my reaction was so strange.
The eagle looked at me while retreating backwards to the lark. "What do you think is going on with Ziri?"
Bai Ling also looked confused and said: "I don't know."
Fei'er (former president of Sakura Club), who was sitting next to Bai Ling, pointed to the rose after hearing Ying's question and said, "The answer is over there."
Eagle and Bai Ling looked at Rose together, and saw that Rose didn't have any doubts on her face. Instead, she looked like she was ready to watch a show. Ying quickly ran over and asked, "Is Ziri okay? Why don't you look like him?"
Before Rose could answer, Su Mei next to her spoke first: "You don't understand this?"
"you understand?"
"Of course." Su Mei explained: "Brother Ziri is not from an ordinary family. Although he is young, he is very mature mentally. However, brother Ziri is more playful and usually has a childish attitude. Only use special measures at critical moments."
"Then what does he mean today?"
Su Mei looked like a young adult and folded her hands on her chest as she thought deeply: "Being competitive is the behavior of a young boy. Brother Ziri is a conspirator. He is planning to take advantage of the situation to fight against this guy." By playing Tai Chi, you can drive away tigers and devour wolves in the future.”
"Can you please be more straightforward?" Su Mei's words were like those of a monk interpreting fortunes, and Yingying was confused.
Rose smiled and said: "Su Mei said it so clearly, you still don't understand? Ziri is just planning to lead this guy into a trap. This man is a mad dog and will bite anyone he sees. Ziri wants to tie him up and let him Go bite those who are inconvenient for us to come forward directly or who are difficult to deal with. If he succeeds, we will definitely make a profit. If he is killed, we will not lose anything, right?"
"It turns out that Ziri is planning this! I really didn't see it."
While they were discussing later, I had already been close to the big dragon in the front for a long time. This guy is a typical angry young man in society. When talking about the angry youth of this society, we need to pay attention to the fact that this kind of social angry youth is different from that kind of national angry youth. The angry national youth are angry about the acts of violence in other countries and some ugly behaviors in the country. They are a group of people who are relatively insightful and socially responsible. However, the situation of angry youth in society is another matter. On the one hand, this kind of angry youth has no abilities. He is not good at anything, and on the other hand, he doesn't like anything. He hates this and is disgusted by it. To put it bluntly, he is jealous of what others can achieve and cannot do it himself.
My eloquence is still at a certain level, and I am basically good at deceiving children with lollipops. This guy is a typical brainless type, and I was led into the pit within ten minutes.
Dalong has a brain problem, but Xiaoshi is a truly smart woman. Although she is not as good as Mei Mei, she is at least a talented woman. She soon realized that something was wrong with my words. gave me a push. "President Ziri, please don't bully our guild, okay?"
Dalong has been completely ensnared by me, just like a gang member, don't expect to get out if you get in. Now his attitude towards me is like a different person. After Xiaoshi said something about me, he said before I spoke: "Ziri people are still very sincere, not those self-righteous people."
Xiaoshi immediately defended: "Dalong, he is...!"
"Stop talking, I know everything."
Xiaoshi said anxiously: "He wants to lie to you."
"Oh?" I looked at Xiaoshi and said, "It's not easy to say random things!"
Dalong immediately said: "Yes! I'm not a fool. How can I not have this judgment ability? I told you to learn more from me, but you didn't listen."
"You...!" Xiaoshi was so angry that she couldn't even speak. "Hmph! President Ziri. Even if we have offended something, you are so unethical!"
"What did I do?" I'm a capable actor, so my expression looks much more innocent now. It's a pity that it doesn't have the trick of twinkling stars in the eyes, otherwise it would be even more perfect.
"I...hum...!" Xiaoshi turned around and walked out angrily.
I quickly shouted to the door: "Guard, send the guests off."
After I called out, there was no response from outside. Instead, it was Dalong who said, "There is no one outside. I didn't see any guards when I came in."
"No...!" I suddenly remembered. Because of this virus outbreak, all our NPCs were sent to maintain order. They haven't been transferred back yet. No wonder they could rush in during our meeting. Normally, there should be guards guarding the door. It's impossible to let everyone in. .
Dalong looked at me and said: "I'm leaving first. Although Xiaoshi is not sensible, she is my girlfriend after all. As a man, you have to be more tolerant! Let's talk about it another time when we have a chance." After that, he also chased after me. Got out.
"Two hundred and five! (Local dialect. Specifically used to describe that kind of heartless person)" I cursed after the dragon chased me out, closed the door and walked back to my seat. "The whole thing!"
Eagle stretched out his thumb and said: "High, really high."
Fei'er smiled and said, "Did the president also use this method to bring Woma in?"
Woma immediately retorted: "You are the one!"
"Speaking of which, there really are people like this in our guild." Rose suddenly said this.
"Who?"
"Don't worry about this, let's get down to business now." I walked back to my seat and sat down. "The problem now is that most Chinese players are infected with the virus, and we have the antidote in our hands. How should we deal with it?"
Rose is for everyone to focus their opinions on the idea. He said: "What I want to say is that the antidote must be given to Chinese players, and even those foreign players. What I hope everyone can discuss is whether we should charge, and if so, how much it will cost or What conditions." With the rose, everyone began to think about it.
Su Mei was the first to say: "Although we are holding the antidote formula now, we are not the only ones who have the formula. I believe that it won't be long before other places will have the antidote. We can't really control this forever. 'Medicine' prescription. So don't think about long-term sales, it's simply impossible."
Ying said: "It's definitely not possible to give it away for free. No matter what, bottles and materials are costs, and the lowest price has to recover the cost! There is no reason for us to post a copy!"
Hongyue said: "Actually, the real notebook is nothing. The medicine for 100,000 people only consumes 100 grams of curare, 300 kilograms of fire spirit stone, 0 kilogram of black crystal powder, 300 kilograms of horned eagle bone powder, 100 kilograms of ancient... Cloud snake gallbladder. These materials are only worth a little more than curare and black crystal powder. To us, they are just a small amount of water chestnuts. When the city was built, those high-grade gemstones worth thousands and tens of thousands of tons could not be bought. Problem?"
Rose said: "My personal opinion is that we can just give away allies such as the Hot Blood Alliance, Baihua Valley, Anti-Japanese Federation, and Northern Alliance for free, and treat them as emotional investments."
Bai Ling nodded and said: "I agree with Rose. These 'medicines' don't cost much. But friendship is not light. Instead of selling it at a high price to make a little money, it's better to just give it away as a favor. If they take this big favor, they can't do anything to us. In this way, no matter what happens in the future, you must think of us. This potential capital is much more beneficial than taking money directly. "
Woma said: "You Chinese are geniuses in public relations. I'm not good at these things, but I don't think you can make much money selling them."
Bingbing suddenly whispered: "What Sister Rose said makes sense, but it's not enough. I think we should be more thorough when we go to the Chinese guilds conference last time. As long as they are not hostile to the guilds we met when we attended the Chinese guild conference last time, we should send them away one by one. Once again. The leading guilds in China have not been finally selected yet. But the Light Alliance has been badly beaten by us, and it is estimated that it is not as fast as us to find national weapons. If we give these guilds some favors to build relationships, I think we will The status of the land will inevitably rise in a straight line."
Shura Ziyi nodded and said: "For most of the time, China has been united by one faction. Speaking of external relations, China has always been united. In fact, internal fighting has never stopped. Do you think any dynasty or generation has never rebelled against the party? The same is true for the leader guild you have chosen now. You are the boss to the outside world. If you really want to command and move those people, you have to rely on the personal relationship between the two guilds. Those things on the table are one thing, and the things underneath cannot be underestimated. This Favor has to be bought, and besides, it’s not expensive.”
I tapped the table and said, "If no one has any objections, we will decide to give some to the guilds that support us. Now I raise my hands in agreement." I looked around and said, "Okay, unanimous vote."
Eagle asked: "What about the remaining hostile guilds and free forces?"
Rose said: "Consider this issue separately. Let's talk about the hostile forces first. According to my idea, add insult to injury and take advantage of the situation."
"You mean to take advantage of the fact that everyone on the other side is sick to directly wipe out the opposition forces?"
"No." Rose said seriously: "We must clearly see the balance of power. Although the enemy is suffering from the disease, they will get the antidote sooner or later. We do not have the strength and energy to spend with them for a long time. From the beginning, our profession The goal of the meeting is not the domestic battlefield, and it is not worth fighting like this."
"What should we do?"
"Knocking on the mountain shakes off the tiger." A circle of roses hit the table. "Utilize the advantages of our guild's strong mobility and outstanding individual combat capabilities, and concentrate our superior arms to carry out high-intensity key strikes against several core guilds of domestic opposition forces. This punch must be delivered quickly and hard, taking advantage of the enemy's advantage. We knocked them unconscious before they even understood. After playing this game, we can use our influence to spread the news to the outside world, so that those guilds that are still wandering can see clearly the situation and find their own camp, and hint at the antidote and camp bundling strategy. .”
Eagle asked worriedly: "Such a big move. Maybe there will be difficulties in the operation?"
"No, we don't fight a protracted war, we don't need logistical support, and we don't need time shifts. We just invest all our troops in a period of time to demolish their cities and force their guilds to disband. Knocking down the mountain to shake the tiger doesn't necessarily mean knocking the mountain down! As long as the mountain shakes, it will be fine. Besides, our goal is the tiger, not the mountain. Whether the mountain falls or not is not a big problem. Just scare the tiger."
Hong Yue said hesitantly: "This battle won't be over in ten and a half months! And what about the NPC forces involved? At this time, all the forces in China have changed, and there is no way that the NPC forces will not react. Also, once this strategic deployment is completed, China’s domestic forces will be basically cleaned up, and we may have a lot of things to do in the future!”
Shura Ziyi also said: "Once the guilds in China take a stand, we will actually start to play the role of leader. It will be really troublesome then!"
Bai Ling said: "Don't worry about this. Firstly, the efficiency of our command level is pretty good, and secondly we will have to face this sooner or later. We can't always hide behind it, right?"
"The words are good, but aren't they too early?" Hongyue still felt uneasy.
Rose explained: "It is indeed a bit early, but this opportunity is rare. If it is carried out again in the future, this unification war may last three or four months, which is not what we want. If we do well this time, it will be short-term." Then it will take 7 days, and it will not take more than 15 days to complete the reorganization of domestic forces. Once the allocation is completed, we can boldly expand our foreign forces in the future. Now we always have to focus on worrying about domestic mistakes. This consumption is still more risky than starting a battlefield in advance. It’s worth trying, and the risks are still within control.”
Hongyue nodded and said: "Then I have no problem."
I opened my mouth and concluded: "Then let's settle it first. The hostile forces will concentrate their efforts on dealing with the core first, and the peripheral guilds will look at the reaction before making a decision. There are still two forces that are scattered unorganized players and NPC forces. These two forces All of them are big-headed.”
Rose also said: "Currently, 53% of all combat professions in China are free players who have not joined a guild, while more than 70% of non-combat professions are free agents, which means that most players do not belong to any force. .”
Su Mei said: "Although these people don't join the guild, they don't necessarily really have no affiliation. Almost every guild war has these players participating in the battle like odd jobs, so I think it is still necessary to win over these people."
Jin Coin asked distressedly: "Aren't you going to give it away again?"
Su Mei shook her head: "This type of player is different from the players in the guild. They don't care about face or reputation like the big guilds. They are truly profit-seekers. Even if we give them benefits, they will dump you as soon as the trend changes. No negotiation."
"Then sell it more expensively and make a lot of money." Jin Coin's eyes were shining with gold in excitement.
"No." Su Mei denied: "Although these people don't remember benefits, they do remember grudges. Giving them benefits is like a meat bun beating a dog, but if you use a stick, they will remember you for the rest of your life."
"What should we do?"
"It's easy to handle. Calculate the cost price, how to sell it, and just make a little profit like normal goods. Although the price is fair, they won't remember us well, but at least they will tilt towards us psychologically. As long as in the future If we maintain a strong position, they will loyally gather around us, but don't expect these people to share wealth and adversity."
