Chapter 55: Riding the Wind
With the silent start of the simulation cabin, Shen Qingming was once again in the game world of Honor of Kings 2.
After going online, Shen Qingming wanted to contact Yang Xu and Tianjiu to discuss the cooperation between the two guilds, but found that the names of the two people in the friend list were gray.
Not only are the two of them not there, but even Charles Ake and them are not online, and among the people who have adventured together before, only Cangyue Tears and Star Bell are in the game, and Star Bell is still hanging up.
"Teacher Cang, Teacher Cang, when will the president go online." Shen Qingming asked in the guild channel.
Cangyue replied with tears: "The president should have gone on a business trip, I haven't been able to come back for a while in the field these days, Brother Xiaobai, if you have anything to tell Charles." Although Charles is not very reliable, he is still the vice president of the Inhuman Pavilion after all. ”
"Little White Brother ???" Shen Qingming knew that Xia Er couldn't do the guild linkage, so he turned his attention to his nickname, "Didn't you still call me Xiaobai before, when did you become Xiaobai?" ”
"Isn't this Brother Bai famous recently, the duel between you and the hero Li Bai has spread all over the pesticide community." Cangyue tearfully said, "Call you Xiaobai twice first, and help you get used to it in advance." ”
Shen Qingming was given goosebumps by his call, and hurriedly said, "Don't don't don't be Teacher Cang, you can just call me Xiaobai." Xiaobai adds a brother word to the back, which always feels weird to hear. ”
Cangyue tears said: "As long as the follow-up script of the detective decides to die brings me, I will change my voice and call you Bai Jie, no problem." ”
Shen Qingming said: "I only know Teacher Cang in the game, such a reliable nurse, how can I not call Teacher Cang when I play the copy later?" ”
This sycophant shot a crit effect, and the tears of Cangyue were extremely comfortable. He said happily: "Come on, Xiaobai, level up, oh, if you don't understand anything, feel free to ask me, practice to level fifteen as soon as possible so that we can unlock the next dungeon." ”
"I'll go to the auction house to buy some equipment first, and the experience of completing the task reward before has suddenly made me rise to level 12, and I am still equipped with a lot of first-level initial equipment sent by the system." Shen Qingming glanced at the tattered equipment on his body and said, "By the way, Mr. Cang, do you know where there is an auction house in Taoyuan Village?" ”
"Auction house? There used to be one in Taoyuan Village, but it has been removed from the system. Cangyue tears recalled, "The closest auction house to Taoyuan Village is in Chang'an City, the largest main city of pesticides, where tens of thousands of players, thousands of NPCs, and all three religions and nine streams are stationed. There are seven or eight kinds of auction systems in Chang'an City alone, there are official auction houses organized by the system, there are underground black markets organized privately by scattered players, and there are semi-formal auction alliances jointly established by several big guilds...... For newcomers, it's hard to figure out the trick without taking some time. ”
Cangyue suddenly changed her words and said, "It just so happens that I'm idle now, or I'll accompany you to Chang'an for a walk." ”
With a veteran to guide the way, Shen Qingming naturally couldn't ask for it.
The two made an appointment to meet at the village entrance post station in the novice village, because the members of the Inhuman Pavilion peddled props near the station every day, and the players who managed the local post station in Taoyuan Village had a good relationship. The administrator helped them cut into a queue and directly sent the two to the carriage convoy bound for Chang'an City.
Riding in a carriage is the only way for every new player in Pesticide 2 to play the game. People who have never taken the carriage from Taoyuan Village to Chang'an are embarrassed to tell others that they have played this game.
Due to the limitations of the game's functions, players cannot teleport quickly for a thousand miles like previous MMORPG online games, except for a few special main cities with teleportation circles, all other locations have to be run by players on their own legs.
Soon, a keen player discovered the business opportunity, and at the beginning, a senior player acted as the leader of the road, cleaning up the mobs that would take the initiative to attack for the new Mengxin, and protecting the safety of the Mengxin Road from Taoyuan Village to Chang'an.
The latter few car heads joined hands to set up the first car dealership in the game, monopolizing several shortcuts from Taoyuan Village to Chang'an, claiming that only car dealers can run monopoly shortcuts, and outsiders will be killed when they step into the shortcut.
Then a little-known battle for the right of way began, with scattered players spontaneously huddling together to ambush the car dealership on various shortcuts that the car dealers claimed to be "monopolies". The car dealer quickly organized a counterattack, taking advantage of the scattered car front to solicit customers, and attacked them separately, each of which was broken.
At the height of the battle, the entire player post system was completely shut down, because all the cars that could lead the way were fighting in the wild, and there was no time to go back to Taoyuan Village to solicit customers. It's just that many novices have suffered, so they can only cross the map step by step to the main city of Chang'an.
Yang Xu once commented on this matter: Didi and Kuaidi's two taxi apps competed with each other, but the final result was that the passengers did not sit in the car, and the driver had no one to pull.
The turning point happened half a year ago, when the competition between the scattered people and the car dealers was fierce. The top 10 guilds at the time suddenly discovered that there was a lot to be made in the business of player transportation, a trip full of new cars could earn gold coins that a craftsman player could earn in a day, and the player as a virtual character did not need to refuel or maintain, except for the labor cost of the front of the car, the cost of player transportation was almost zero.
In order to avoid the tragedy of the battle for the car dealers, the top ten guilds in the game have joined forces to form a new guild - the Wind Riding Division.
The purpose of the establishment of the Riding Wind Division is simple, that is, to establish a player transportation center covering the entire territory of the game.
Soon, the local car dealers and scattered people in Taoyuan Village were surprised to find that a new guild called Chengfeng Division suddenly rose up and snatched all the orders they had in one fell swoop.
The new sense of oppression of the Chengfeng Division even temporarily united the two sworn enemies of the Che Dealer and the Sanren, and the two sides agreed that no matter who the Chengfeng Division did to it, the other side would join the war together.
However, the Chengfeng Division has not done anything to them, and he doesn't even have the desire to grab customers.
"An elephant doesn't go out of his way to trample an ant to death." Cangyue sat in the carriage, looked at the scenery outside and said, "Because elephants can't see ants at all." ”
The Chengfeng Division didn't take these old-timers seriously at all, and they were not qualified to be the opponents of the Chengfeng Division at all. There are countless craftsmen behind the Wind Riding Division who have customized the carriages for them, countless experienced veteran players who plan the route of the convoy, and countless full-level characters who provide cheap car heads. In the face of the endless resources of the Chengfeng Division, the rich experience of the struggle between the heads of Taoyuan Village is not at all insignificant.
Because, elephants don't care about ants.
