Chapter 11 The Economics of the Game

Cheng Zhi, who was in a good mood, put the mare's milk beer back in his backpack, and then asked the specific progress of the three dead friends in the team's voice.

Then Brother Gao said: "I'm fine! ”

Cheng Zhi said when he heard this: "Then Brother Gao, you go to the north gate and wait for us first, and I'll go find Ma Chao and Chen Dashao!" ”

"Okay."

Then Cheng Zhi walked back to the blacksmith shop, and unsurprisingly saw Chen Feng waiting there, so he smiled and said, "You have done it too?" ”

Chen Feng: "Well, mining + forging, the NPC also gave me an iron pickaxe, a hammer and two anvils. ”

Cheng Zhi: "Well, that's good, let's go find Ma Chao"

Then the two walked side by side to the tailor shop and found Ma Chao. Ma Chao excitedly showed them a piece of "rough fabric" he obtained, and Cheng Zhi scolded with a smile: "You are excited about a hammer for a rag, and then play treasure when it is equipped." ”

Then Ma Chao asked: "Then let's go and find Lao Gao", and then he was about to turn around while speaking.

Cheng Zhi spoke up: "Ma Chao, wait!" ”

Ma Chao looked back at him puzzled: "What's wrong?" Anything else? ”

Cheng Zhi said "um" and said, "Ma Chao, I have to trouble you to learn another life career." ”

Ma Chao scratched his head: "What? Anything else? ”

Cheng Zhi nodded and said, "In addition to these life professions shared by all players, thief players actually have an exclusive life profession, or exclusive skill, that is, lockpicking!" You go and learn how to pick locks, right in the beginner's mentor of the thief profession. ”

"Unlocking?" Ma Chao, who had played Thief in the game, knew this skill, but, "But do you want to learn it now?" Doesn't seem to be useful for unlocking at low levels, right? ”

"Well, it's useless, but I'd like to verify one... emmmm, hey, don't ask, anyway, if you go, you can go and learn, and you don't need money" Cheng Zhi groaned, and immediately interrupted Ma Chao's doubts and urged him to learn.

"Maybe there will be a surprise, who knows" Cheng Cheng muttered in his heart.

。。。。。。

Ten minutes later, Cheng Zhi and Gao Junwei, who were waiting at the north gate of the town, converged with each other, and then went to the area where Second Lieutenant Cotter's adjutant Sergeant Links was stationed, according to the information on the map, the area was called: Blackwater Swamp.

At this time, the game is already full of moons, according to the ratio of game time to real time one to one, more than seven hours have passed since Cheng Zhi and the three dead friends went online, seven hours of time, the level of the four people has been increased by five levels, and the three dead friends have a preliminary familiarity with the game, in addition to their respective deputy majors and life careers are also ready, in general, emmmm

Cheng Zhi is quite satisfied in his heart.

Under the moonlight as bright as water, the four of them walked on the uneven road with laughter and laughter, the surrounding fields were quiet, and the sea breeze was blowing, and it was quiet.

On the way, Cheng Zhi pointed to a fruit tree on the side of the road and said to Gao Junwei: "Brother Gao, see if this fruit can be collected." ”

Then Gao Junwei continued: "But even if I can collect, I won't be able to climb a tree!" ”

Cheng Zhi looked at him speechlessly, and said: "Just this kind of low fruit tree, as long as you learn to have players who are professional in medicine picking and cooking, the system will automatically help you complete the action behavior of collecting, of course, the kind of trees that are too tall is another matter, remember?" Gao Xiaobai! ”

Then Gao Junwei came to the fruit tree obediently, and then turned around, his voice was a little excited: "Wild sand pear, ordinary fruit, can be collected!" ”

Hearing this, Cheng Zhi said, "Then collect two groups and take them away, I have understood, this fruit is one of the raw materials for making level 9 cooking consumables and secret goat milk juice, let's collect one group by one, and then put them in your backpack, so it will be worth a little money." ”

"If you have learned or listened to basic economic theories, you will understand that in the game, in fact, it is the same as the real world, there is demand, there will be supply, this is called "supply and demand relationship", what the player needs, someone will provide him with something, such as materials, equipment, or information, resources, are able to produce the existence of supply and demand chains, and this supply and demand, under the premise that the base of the game is large enough as the basis of the player, is actually widespread. ”

And it is precisely because of such extensive supply and demand that the market in the game and the chain of interests have been formed. Players want to make money, in fact, there are no more than two ways, to make money and to do business", Cheng Zhi continued to collect wild pear trees, while meticulously popularizing the "way to make money" in the game to the three dead friends.

"Playing money is actually very easy to understand, fighting monsters and losing money, dropping materials can be sold for money, this is the basic source of money when playing money, in addition to a certain chance of dropping equipment, and then you can sell it to make money, it is also a relatively considerable windfall, as the so-called gathering sand into a mountain, gathering water into a sea, although the efficiency of playing money is low, but it is still a desirable way to make money steadily, and even there is a wide range of players in the game, players who specialize in playing money, they may not have good teammates, they do not have good game technology, but this kind of "money party" We, generally do not lack tenacious perseverance and willing to be lonely and boring patience, fight monsters and lose money, and then fight monsters, and then drop money, always in the fight against monsters, always repeat the action of picking up money, this is actually very respectable, this kind of "money party" is actually very great! ”

Cheng Zhi's tone contained helpless ridicule, what he didn't actually say was that the vast majority of such players would later become iron roosters or misers, and they hated and cared very much about wasting money.

"Let's talk about business again,Business in the game is actually the same as business behavior in reality.,Because of the huge demand of the player group,Will derive a variety of supply forces.,Let's take the basic materials.,A large number of idle players.,Will put their own materials when they fight monsters.,And the materials collected on the way to fight monsters,In addition to their own needs,All sold to material merchants.,And then the material merchants will concentrate on a large number of these basic materials.,Or a large number of auction houses., Either sell in large quantities to the big guilds, generally speaking, no matter whether the merchant is big or small, in short, there is a profit, in addition, equipment, items, intelligence, news, etc. are equivalent to the above, in summary, to put it bluntly, it is low in and high out, wide collection of financial resources, and a lot of money! ”

Cheng Zhi taught his friends about the "way to make money" in the game in one breath, and then said to Gao Junwei: "Now for a few of us, this is the early stage of the game, don't be so anxious to think about how to make money, first familiarize yourself with all aspects of the game, and then discuss it in the long run." ”

The three die-hard friends were stunned when they heard this, and secretly wondered why they had never discovered Cheng Zhi before, and he was so good at studying economics?

While talking, Cheng Zhi and Gao Junwei had also finished collecting the two groups of wild sand pears, and then concentrated them in Gao Junwei's backpack, Cheng Zhi spoke again at this time: "In "Holy Demon", each novice player's backpack is 500 grids, and when it reaches the middle level, tailor professional players can sew pockets and expand the backpack space, but for the time being, it's only 500 grids, and I still have to put some important things in my backpack, so those sand pears will trouble you for the time being, Brother Gao!" ”

"Now, keep walking, towards the Blackwater Swamp."
