The Seventh Ring

Outside Luoyang, a large number of villagers are sweating like rain for the construction of moats, regardless of the scorching sun. Even when the moat was built in the main city of Fengxiang, it was a big project, not to mention that the ninth-level stone city wall in Luoyang was much wider than the city wall in Fengxiang.

Lu Zhi, Chen Shuo, Yang Qiu and others all stood at the head of the city, paying attention to the progress of the moat, everyone was a little excited, although everyone was sweating like rain and their clothes were soaked, but now the construction of the Luoyang moat has reached the final stage. If Wang Yue hadn't returned to Fengxiang City a long time ago, most of the No. 1 Wonder Heroes in Shenzhou would probably not have missed this moment.

Chen Shuo put his hand on his forehead to avoid his eyes from being directly irradiated by the strong sunlight, looked at the sky in the east, and sighed a little anxiously, "At most, there is still half an hour, the moat will be completed, and the lord should be about to arrive." ”

Lu Zhi smiled faintly, straightened his beard, and said leisurely: "Ah Niu is more concerned about upgrading Luoyang than anyone else, he will come." I didn't expect Luoyang to be upgraded so quickly, attracting so many strangers to settle here, Luoyang's population gap is not a problem at all, I can't wait to see Luoyang upgraded to the capital. ”

Chen Shuo smiled a little embarrassedly, Fengxiang's third deputy city lord's enthusiasm for the task of rebuilding Luoyang was beyond the reach of ordinary people, and that urgent mood made him not delay even a minute.

Fengxiang has sent to Luoyang the monks needed by the temple, as well as the multi-skilled talents needed by the research center, and the talent needs of Luoyang have been met; As for the population of Luoyang, it has already reached the upper limit of 50,000; Now the only thing that restricts Luoyang's upgrade is the moat, and when the moat is completed, it means that Luoyang meets all the requirements for upgrading to a third-level city!

Chen Shuo didn't wait long. A few minutes later, a black dot appeared in the sky above Luoyang City, and quickly landed on the head of the city where Lu Zhi and the others were located, and the air flow formed by the Black Feather Eagle King flapping his wings brought a touch of coolness to Lu Zhi and the others. Before the big black 6, Ah Niu had appeared on the head of the city.

"My lord."

Chen Shuo and Yang Qiu bowed in unison and saluted.

A certain city lord nodded at the two of them, then came to Lu Zhi and said with a smile: "On such a hot day, I didn't expect Mr. to be here." "Although Lu Zhi has settled in Fengxiang. But after all, there is no outstanding, and Lu Zhi's help to Ah Niu is really not small, in front of this world-famous celebrity, a certain city lord has always respectfully performed the gift of his disciple.

Lu Zhi smiled. Said: "It's okay to be used to shaking your hands on weekdays, today is a good day for Luoyang City to upgrade, how can you not come!" Could it be that Ah Niu forgot, I am the Luoyang Taishou? ”

The next moment. There was laughter from the top of the city.

While waiting for the moat to be completed. Chen Shuo recounted the recent situation in Luoyang in detail.

After the idea of building Luoyang into a "city of players" is finalized. Luoyang is fully open to many adventure players. It has greatly increased the vitality of this reconstructed ancient city in Middleland. For most adventurous players. It is almost impossible to settle in a system city. What's more, it was Luoyang, the former king of the land. Therefore. After posting a notice that Luoyang is ready to accept adventurers on a large scale. Lots of applicants. The officials of the Luoyang administrative center have been busy for more than ten days. Finally, more than 20,000 adventurous players settled down. But there are still a lot of disappointed adventurous players waiting for the next wave of settlement opportunities.

Due to the large number of adventurous players in Luoyang to settle down. and the fact that there are no dependent territories. It makes it impossible for Luoyang to develop manufacturing at all. Almost all commodities had to be obtained through guò trade. The Heqi Chamber of Commerce has an organization in Luoyang that is sufficient to meet the needs of Luoyang villagers. But it is somewhat difficult for the Chamber of Commerce to take into account the needs of adventurous players.

This is a large-scale move to attract adventurous players. Attracted more adventurous players to Luoyang. The market size of Luoyang players has tripled to what it used to be. The sales and profits of Luoyang's potions and equipment have been greatly improved. Judging from the current situation. The player market will continue to expand. In order to avoid the lack of materials for players in Luoyang City. Chen Shuotong guò Hulong Villa land relationship. Developed trade relations with more player territories around Luoyang. Buy a lot of medicines and equipment at low prices from the surrounding player territories. In order to ensure that Luoyang has sufficient supply.

An emerging territory near Luoyang. Most of them are in dire need of funds to promote the Territory Exhibition. These new territories are difficult to attract a large number of adventurous players. Especially near Luoyang, there is a zài. The production capacity of the emerging territories is far greater than the market demand. Cooperate with Luoyangdi. It can effectively swing the production capacity of emerging territories. And get a lot of money. Although some concessions had to be made on the unit price. But it's much better than letting craftsmen sit idle and sit on empty seats. And the purchase price of Luoyang land is relatively reasonable. It is not because Luoyang is the only buyer's market to limit the price. Both sides of the transaction are profitable.

Cooperation with Luoyang was a fair and voluntary trade relationship, and it almost became the only choice for the new lords who were unwilling to become vassals of powerful forces. Therefore, these newborn territories are eager for Luoyang's orders, like deep resentful women.

Trade is two-sided.

The huge number of players in Luoyang determines that Luoyang is not only a huge consumer market, but also the best place to recycle raw materials. They can also go to great lengths to bring raw materials to new territories and sell them, but that little price difference shouldn't be enough to make them spend a lot of time traveling dozens of miles away.

Of course, there is another possibility: the merchant player buys a large number of cheap raw materials in Luoyang, and then sells them to nearby nascent territories to earn the difference. Even now, there are a large number of speculative merchant players in and around Luoyang City, but their scale has not been able to grow bigger, and many "old profiteers" have given up on this business, but there are always some businessmen who think they are smart and devote themselves to this market like moths to the fire, making the market still seem to be prosperous.

This is due to Chen Shuo's delicate control.

His method is simple: all adventurers will make a corresponding record of the sale of raw materials to Luoyang, and this record will become an important basis for whether idle adventurers can obtain the right to settle in Luoyang. Even players who have settled in Luoyang can't just enjoy happiness and not contribute unscrupulously. Player residents must complete the so-called "minimum ingredient sales amount" every month, and the value of the quota is determined by Dragon Protector after repeated research, as long as they are not too lazy, it should not be difficult to complete this hard target. Even if you don't want to upgrade for a certain period of time, you can fund or purchase from friends to complete the raw material sales target.

The rights and obligations are equal, and players who are only willing to enjoy the rights but are not willing to bear the corresponding obligations are not eligible to settle in Luoyang for a long time, and Chen Shuo and Lu Zhi will unceremoniously expel them. More than ten days ago. More than seventy overly clever adventurers have been expelled from Luoyang, and they have lost the possibility of settling in Luoyang forever!

In this way, Chen Shuo firmly grasped the raw material sales market in Luoyang.

Luoyang buys the finished products of the New Territory and harvests various raw materials from the hands of a large number of adventurers. Sell to new territories at a lower price, so that those new territories have enough raw materials to support production. Within a hundred miles around Luoyang, a community of interests centered on Luoyang quickly took shape, and the exhibition of the new territory depended on Luoyang's exhibition to a large extent.

All are honored. It's a loss!

According to Chen Shuo's prediction, Kuaizhan's "City of Players" is expected to break even after being upgraded to a first-class capital, and at that time, Fengxiang will no longer need to inject funds into Luoyang, and obtain land wealth from Luoyang business district every day, which is enough to support the reconstruction of Luoyang!

Through guò trade cooperation, most of the surrounding nascent territories were united around Luoyang; If you want to settle in Luoyang, the recommendation of Hulong Villa is indispensable. And Dragon Guardian Villa is Fengxiang's natural ally, and the large number of adventurous players has also made more and more adventurous players identify with Luoyang.

In this process, Luoyang's self-protection ability is also growing rapidly!

After the repositioning of Luoyang, the exhibition is really exciting, and it is impossible for any player territory to replicate Luoyang's exhibition mode. Not even Fengxiang City!

The construction of the moat is completed.

"Ding-dong. Luoyang has been successfully upgraded to a third-level city, the seventh ring of the task of rebuilding Luoyang has been completed, and the mission has entered the eighth ring, congratulations to Zheng Aniu player. ”

"The seventh ring of the rebuilding Luoyang mission has been completed, and you can choose to redeem it randomly now for huàn rewards, or redeem it for more advanced rewards after accumulating enough task experience points, please make a choice within ten seconds."

Keep accumulating! Rebuilding the Eighth Ring of Luoyang Mission: After long-term efforts, Luoyang has finally been upgraded to a third-class city. Although it is far from the former royal city. But it is no longer lost to any player's territory. Luoyang's future is bright, but Luoyang doesn't even have a city-level vassal territory. Rebuilders must make persistent efforts to enhance Luoyang's influence in the Sili region.

Mission Requirements: Gain leadership of the five city-level territories in the Sili region and make them accept the jurisdiction of Luoyang. There are still days left before the deadline of the Eighth Ring Mission, and if the task of this link is not completed within the specified time, the reconstruction mission will be completed.

Seeing the mission requirements of the eighth ring, Ah Niu had a headache.

The requirements of the Eighth Ring are similar to those of the Sixth Ring, which is to obtain five vassal territories, but with the increase in the scale of Luoyang City, the scale of the vassal territories has also risen, from the township level to the city level.

If you are just looking for five vassal territories, Ah Niu doesn't think that this task is too difficult, the nascent territories around Luoyang are still in the township stage, but the requirements of the task are in the entire territory of Sili, and there are thousands of city-level territories in the entire territory of Sili.

Some time ago, the four first-level cities rebelled against the tyranny of Bo Ancient City, which had a great impact on the territory of the invincible Dongzi, but the hegemony of the ancient city of Bo was still unshakeable in the territory of Si Li, as long as the invincible Dongzi did not change his strategy, any lord player would live in the shadows. There is an invincible Dongzi who is slaughtering in Sili and marching forward, sending troops everywhere to expand the territory, Ah Niu only needs to release the rumor, and many city-level lords will come to block the traffic in Luoyang City!

After the five township-level territories accepted the jurisdiction of Luoyang, they were guaranteed security, and Ah Niu did not take advantage of them, and the five township-level territories were Fengxiang's living advertisements. After accepting the jurisdiction of Luoyang, they did not lose their autonomy. This is an indisputable fact.

A certain city lord is sure that he can complete the requirements of the Eighth Ring Land mission within ten days, and the crux of the matter is that a new element has appeared in the Eighth Ring Mission: the task completion time. It took half a year to obtain the leadership of five city-level territories, which is quite abundant, even if Ah Niu does not turn his attention to the ready-made city-level territories in Sili, and wait for the new territories around Luoyang to be upgraded to first-class cities, I am afraid that it is okay, but it is the message transmitted by this new element. Let Ah Niu not dare to act rashly.

With the gradual deepening of the chain of tasks, the concept of task deadline finally appeared, and if the task of the link is not completed before the deadline, the chain task will end early. Feng Xiang can still exchange the accumulated experience of the land quest into a corresponding reward. But it also means that the possibility of trying to figure out Guò to delay time and keep Luoyang in his hands for a long time to obtain a longer-term return is completely wiped out.

If you think about it carefully, in fact, such a setting is also reasonable, and it is strange that the task of rebuilding Luoyang does not have similar restrictions, and Luoyang has long been in the hands of the rebuilders, and the trend of the game is unfavorable. Fengxiang Dake can build Luoyang to a certain extent. Deliberately delay the progress of the task, so as to take the wealth of Luoyang Chuangzào and the displaced people and talents attracted by it!

The system obviously does not leave such

In this regard, Ah Niu has already been mentally prepared, but he feels a little relieved, but now Ah Niu must seriously consider a question: whether he is sure that the investment in Luoyang will be recovered before the completion of the reconstruction task.

It is not difficult to judge this question.

Since it is a hidden task and a serial task, there is no need to worry about the so-called return rate of the task, and. So much manpower and financial resources have been invested in the early stage, and there is no reason to just retreat. Now that the mission has progressed, Fengxiang City has a thousand reasons to move forward despite all difficulties and do its best to win the final victory of the reconstruction mission.

A certain city lord thought for a while and said to Chen Shuo: "Starting from the Eighth Ring Mission, the task of rebuilding Luoyang has entered a critical stage. Any slight mistake can lead to an early end to the reconstruction mission, and we have no capital to make mistakes. Although the task requirements of this ring are relatively easy to complete, we don't know what the next task will be, in order to avoid sinking in the next link, the Luoyang administrative center had better predict the next ring task in advance, and make possible responses to possible problems, as well as necessary preparations!

From now on, the city-level territory in the territory of Sili will be accepted as a vassal territory of Luoyang, and a maximum of four vassal forces will be recruited first. ”

Chen Shuo solemnly promised. But he still doesn't know anything. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Lord." When will the slots of the last city-level vassal power be available? ”

Ah Niu looked at Chen Shuo and said slowly: "It's up to you, when do you think Luoyang is ready to meet the next ring task, just tell me." If you're not sure, we'll have to complete the eighth ring before the deadline. ”

Chen Shuo was shocked, the Fengxiang City Lord actually entrusted such an important matter to his own hands, and Chen Shuo suddenly had a feeling in his chest that he was willing to do it.

The young senior official looked solemn and said word by word: "Thank you lord, my subordinates will do their best to prepare and live up to the high expectations of the lord!" However, Chen Shuo's lack of experience and ability are limited, and he hopes that the Lord will also participate in the prediction of the serial tasks in order to reduce the possibility of mistakes! ”

Ah Niu agreed to Chen Shuo's request without hesitation: "Accurate." ”

A certain city lord handed over the decision on the progress of Luoyang's reconstruction task to Chen Shuo, not because Ah Niu was used to it, let alone on a whim. Chen Shuo's ability in internal affairs and his serious attitude in handling problems have long been recognized by almost everyone, including Lu Zhi.

From Luoyang being positioned as a "city of players" to the present, in less than two months, Chen Shuo has made Luoyang have undergone earth-shaking changes. The current Luoyang City is no longer a lonely city a few months ago, but a center of interest that entangles a large number of adventurous players and many players' territories!

With this report card alone, Ah Niu was amazed.

What a certain city lord appreciates the most is Chen Shuo's effective control over the adventurous players entrenched in Luoyang. The seemingly inconspicuous right to purchase raw materials is of great significance to maintaining the stability of the Luoyang interest group, and if it cannot grasp the dominance of the raw material market, the group will not be able to expand to its current scale. It seems like a simple move, but it grasps the crux of the problem!

The heavy sword has no edge, and the great ingenuity does not work!

Chen Shuo's observation and whimsical ideas amazed Ah Niu. Chen Shuo is thoughtful, his meticulous style is very similar to Chen Gong, and most importantly, this young official is still humble and motivated, without a trace of arrogance.

This peace of mind helps Chen Shuo continue to improve.

Ah Niu couldn't help but sigh secretly, "After all, Gongtai takes the route of a strategist, and it is his forte to make suggestions and control the overall situation, but it seems that it is difficult for some strong people to expect him to come up with some amazing ideas in the economy...... In terms of internal affairs, this Chen Shuo is still a little interesting! ”

Thinking of this, a certain city lord couldn't help but glance at Lu Zhi gratefully, if it weren't for Lu Zhi, how could Feng Xiang get Chen Shuo's contribution?

The two looked at each other and smiled, all without saying a word.

Luoyang's upgrade to a third-level city did not cause much repercussions among the lord players, with the human and financial resources of the world's first city in the back, and the unique conditions for building a "player city", Luoyang's fast development is also expected. Anyway, Luoyang will not be Fengxiang's in the end, and it doesn't matter much to how many levels it reaches with other lords.

Another reason is that there are too many player territories that have recently been upgraded to Tier 3 cities.

Xia Pi Xiangrong's condemnation of the "kidnapping of monks" in Jingzhou Qilin City made Wuxin lose face in the world. Under pressure, the senior monk who had been kidnapped by the Heaven and Earth Ersuo had no intention of having to return him after barely staying in Qilin City for a month and training three batches of junior monks.

This incident has aroused heated discussions among players, and countless players who have shown their territory in a regular manner suddenly appeared: the monk problem that originally plagued the upgrading of the territory can be solved by guò plunder!

It works!

Zhen Rong never imagined that his fierce verbal and written criticism of Qilin City would attract more pretenders and bring ruin to the monks of Xiapi County. A large number of players have sent skilled martial artists to Xia Pi County, and every night, hundreds of black-clothed people roar back and forth, and the temple is full of ghosts.

No matter how the thunderous Zhenrong strengthened the patrol force and focused on the defense of the temples everywhere, the number of monks in Xiapi continued to decrease. Many martial artists were captured on the spot by the Xiapi army and were brutally killed, but more martial artists came one after another!

The law does not rule the people.

The little Xiapi Xiang doesn't have enough strength to threaten all the adventurers, isn't Qilin City okay now? The reputation stinks...... Compared to the big thing of upgrading the territory, it doesn't matter.

In this way, there was a wave of upgrading third-level cities in the game, and in just over a month, more than a thousand third-level cities appeared, and Huoyun City and Maple Leaf City also took advantage of this spring breeze to upgrade their territories.

Two days before Luoyang was upgraded, Longfei, a special territory, was also quietly upgraded to a third-level city.

Ah Niu chose to upgrade Long Fei at this time, just to receive the effect of secretly crossing Chen Cang, when the players in Jincheng County showed the fact that Long Fei was promoted, they could only suspect that they had missed Long Fei's upgrade information. In order to avoid foolproof, Chen Gong imposed martial law on the ten miles around Longfei five days in advance in the name of "military exercises", and no one was allowed to enter

After Luoyang is upgraded, Ah Niu has three third-level cities!

Just when the lord of Fengxiang City was full of ambition, a prince also stepped on the fast track: Yuan Shao, the lord of Guannan and the Taishou of Bohai, became the lord of Jizhou!
