Li Ming's accumulated luck value exploded again, and with the first swing of the mine hoe, he successfully obtained a piece of aquamarine ore, and his proficiency also successfully increased by 2 points.

Now he finally understands the standard for improving the mastery of mining, only within the scope of mining, collecting the highest quality ore, each success will give him 1 mastery, and the lucky crit will increase the proficiency by 2.

For example, Li Ming is now an intermediate mining technique, and can collect both ordinary ore veins and bronze ore veins, but if you collect ordinary ore, you must succeed several times to gain 1 proficiency point, and if you collect bronze ore veins, as long as you succeed, you can increase your proficiency.

Knowing the rules, he hurriedly picked up the ore and kept busy with Fan Hua......

Both of them understand that today is the first day of the game, and as a professional life player, if you want to make money as soon as possible, you must raise the level of mining skills as much as possible.

The higher the level of the Mining Technique, which means that they can get more ores and start crafting more items.

The studio's task schedule will be officially released tomorrow, and whether they can complete the task or not is related to how much salary they can get next month......

The clanging sound kept ringing, and Fan Hua received a message from a colleague in the studio while mining, asking where the two were now.

Of course, Fan Hua couldn't take Li Ming to join the large army, so he casually said a few perfunctory words, saying that he would not fall behind the mining level and would not act with the large army for the time being.

The miners in the studio didn't insist on it, so they told the two not to forget about mining, and ended the contact.

"Huazi, why haven't you signed a formal employment contract with any studio?" Li Ming asked curiously.

"I don't want to be tied to contracts, these contracts are signed for a year or two, I'm so young, I have to start my own business." Fan Hua replied with a smile.

"You want to start a business?" Li Ming's eyes widened in confusion.

"Yes, I've been in the game industry for two or three years, and I know a lot of studio owners of all sizes, and they were not ordinary players at the beginning. Fan Hua said unconvinced.

"Since you have this plan, why didn't you do it earlier?" Li Ming asked.

"It's easy to say, it's hard to do, now that there are groups of studios in the game circle, and the business dealings of the major guilds have been distributed, if I want to be a new studio, I must master the customers in the water, otherwise I won't starve to death." As I said earlier, now that the studios are on scale, if you want to set up a new studio, you will have to invest a lot in the early stage, and I can't afford it now. Fan Hua said helplessly.

"What kind of clients and how much investment will it take to ensure that the new studio survives?" Li Ming asked.

"Of course, the bigger the customer, the better, and there must be a fixed supply contract to ensure the long-term development of the studio, but in order to take on the long-term orders of large customers, the studio needs at least a professional team of five people." Fan Hua replied.

"It's so complicated...... Then when you say big customers, do you mean those large guilds? Li Ming asked.

"Yes, these large guilds are the fixed parents of the studio, and their existence can ensure that the operation of the studio is more secure, and the list of the big guilds is enough to ensure the daily expenses of the studio, and then the studio will do the business of those ordinary players, so as to accumulate funds and strength faster." Fan Hua explained.

"That's ......" Li Ming basically understood the operation of the studio from his brief introduction.

"Now that the market has been fixed, each big guild has signed supply and demand contracts with several or even a dozen studios, and if a new studio wants to get involved, unless the relationship is strong enough, or the resources that the big guild urgently needs, I don't have a chance at all now." Fan Hua sighed.

"Don't go in, let's take our time, don't talk about the studio, tell me how to complete the studio tasks, how to calculate the salary." Li Ming asked with a smile, this is what he is most concerned about.

"Okay, we're with the Dark Ghost Studio now, it's a medium-sized studio, the two of us signed a one-year temporary contract, the basic salary is only 1000, and at most 3 months of the monthly salary, if the first 3 months are still unable to complete the monthly task, the fourth month will automatically cancel the basic salary, this is a very important point, Brother Ming must remember." Fan Hua said.

"Oh, and that rule, what about their regular employees?" Li Ming asked.

"Of course, regular employees are different, they have to follow the management of the studio, arrange what to do, although there are also monthly tasks, but according to the studio's arrangement can still not be completed, they can still get a basic salary of more than 2,000." Fan Hua explained.

"It's so good, then you've been a freelancer, isn't it far worse than a regular employee?" Li Ming asked in surprise.

"This can not be said, although the basic salary of regular employees is high and guaranteed, but the free man is not bad, as long as I can complete the studio tasks every month, my commission is much more than that of regular employees, which is called taking money with ability, basic salary or something, I have never put it in my eyes." Fan Hua said confidently.

"What if you can complete the task and the studio has increased the amount of the task?" Li Ming asked worriedly.

"These contracts have already been set, and they can't be changed casually, as long as the task is completed, a freelancer like me can get 35% of the commission, but only 15% for regular employees." Fan Hua said with a smile.

"I'll go, even if the commission is high, how much can you sell for some ore, and the commission of 35% is not much?" Li Ming said suspiciously.

"You don't understand this, ore mining is just basic work, if you want to make money, who sells ore, the main thing is to use ore to build equipment and hand it over to the studio to complete the task, or brush the copy to block the boss, as long as you complete the task, you can get a few more excellent items, and it is enough to eat in a month." Fan Hua explained with a smile.

"I understand, I have to take you to familiarize myself with it more in the future." Li Ming nodded.

"Brother Ming has this necklace here, and it shouldn't be a problem to complete the task in the future." Fan Hua said with a smile.

The two talked, but the tinkling sound never stopped, and after upgrading to intermediate mining, the collection efficiency has increased significantly, and the original work of collecting once every 10 seconds now only takes about 6 seconds.

Although the success rate is still so miserable, the efficiency has gone up, and the number of successes has begun to rise......

Coupled with Li Ming's lucky critical hits that appear from time to time, there are more and more ore piles in his warehouse, and his skill proficiency has also increased significantly.

With the help of the Clover Ring, his current proficiency increase rate is almost more than three times that of Fan Hua, and as more than an hour has passed since the collection time, his intermediate mining proficiency has quickly increased to 289\/500!

And Fan Hua is only a pitiful 87\/500 at present!

Now the time has reached 19:40, and the players in the spirit world only have 8 hours of online time every day, deducting the time for dinner and offline eating, Fan Hua only has more than an hour left to leave the game.

But Li Ming's online time is still more than 3 hours......
