Chapter 82: Horse Racing and Advertising
Tournaments are held in the arena every day, isn't it a waste not to bet on anything?
So Gu Nansheng opened all kinds of bets, betting on the win or loss of a game - of course, this is only the most basic, as well as betting on who will win a few games in a row, betting on who will reach the top few, and even betting on the time of a game, betting on the number of times a fighter uses his skills in a game.
Gu Nansheng is a science and engineering student at a key university, so the problem of calculating odds is naturally not a problem, and the mathematical expectation is a column, and he quickly figured out a complete set of odds system.
Anyway, no matter what the result of the game is, he will win steadily, it's just a matter of winning more and winning less.
Then, it's the racecourse, the Duota continent is too monotonous, there are no horses to bet on, Gu Nansheng soon built a racetrack behind the leisure center, so that there are more things to bet on.
Gu Nansheng decisively wrote about the situation of the racecourse in the newspaper, and soon, all the residents of Bilo City knew about this new game.
Some people tried to start betting, although most people lost, but some people got rich overnight, how could Gu Nansheng give up this opportunity, and quickly published in the newspaper the history of the lucky man who got rich overnight: A man's head with a head like an onion was printed on the newspaper, and he told with tears in his eyes what a wonderful life horse racing gave him and what a huge wealth he was given.
As a result, many gamblers in Birlo City began to get ready to move.
Gu Nansheng also founded the horse newspaper, which specializes in analyzing the situation of the horse farm for various gamblers, and also analyzes the competition of transferred fighters.
As a result, only four or five days later, even the news newspaper and Ma Bao, Gu Nansheng's total newspaper sales exceeded 20,000 copies.
Although he couldn't make a lot of money from this, controlling the newspaper was equivalent to controlling the ears of all the residents of Bilo City, and finally, the first enlightened businessman came to him.
He is the owner of a large hotel in the northeast corner of the city, the hotel is very high-end, and the price is good, but because the location is a little remote, many people don't know, and the business is a little deserted.
Gu Nansheng received the chubby old man with a smile on his face, negotiated the price and advertising design, and in the end, Gu Nansheng sold him a quarter of the newspaper at a price of 50 gold coins.
With the first crab eater, there was a second, and the major merchants followed suit, and later Gu Nansheng put various advertisements on the fence on the horse farm, the wall of the supermarket, the roof of the commercial city, and the arena of the transferred warrior. The rental price of a huge advertising sign is 20 gold coins a month, which is also a lot of profit.
Four months later, Gu Nansheng made a lot of money, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the number one businessman in Biluo City.
Then, he took out tens of thousands of gold coins and gave Karin to buy a synthesis scroll in the royal capital of the Rocky Kingdom.
Enchanters need to master the following areas: carving, smelting, magic circles, equipment upgrades, energy control, and scroll crafting. Among them, scroll synthesis is the most difficult.
Equipment upgrades are for the same type of equipment, e.g. two or three 1-Star Gloves of Strength are combined into a 2-Tier Gloves of Strength. Since the energy fluctuations of the same type of equipment are close, it is relatively easy to control.
However, if it is different kinds of equipment, such as a power gauntlet and a noble ring, their energy is very different, and to fuse them together, you need to craft a scroll.
To put it bluntly, the synthetic scroll is actually a complex magic array, and the magic array is one of the areas that the enchanter needs to be proficient in, and at the same time, writing the magic circle on the white scroll requires precise energy control.
Therefore, a good enchanter should be proficient in at least three or more of the carving, smelting, magic circle, equipment upgrades, and scroll crafting.
Throughout the ages, all the synthesis scrolls were created and invented by genius enchanters who were proficient in magic arrays, and since the birth of enchanters, in the past tens of thousands of years, all kinds of synthesis scrolls have only added up to dozens of kinds.
Enchanters will add various secrecy measures when writing synthetic scrolls, and it is impossible to imitate them. In fact, even if you don't use secrecy measures, it's not easy to imitate, and the complex and messy magic array inside is dazzling.
It takes two or three days to make even the simplest synthetic scroll, and even if there is a slight mistake in energy control, the entire scroll will be scrapped, plus there are very few enchanters who can make scrolls, and the materials used to make scrolls are very expensive, so each scroll is sky-high to make.
Even the simplest Ghost Tether Scroll is worth 900 gold to make.
Gu Nansheng makes a lot of money, but if he uses it to buy scrolls, he can't buy much.
Cultivating an enchanter is too expensive, even if Gu Nansheng's total amount of gold coins now exceeds 100,000, if he wants to rely on it to quickly upgrade his enchantment, it is still a drop in the bucket.
……
The door was closed, and the moonlight shone into the house like mercury on the ground.
Gu Nansheng's hand glowed with a hazy purple light, staring intently at the agile loafers in his hand, as beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, his eyes gradually became sloppy.
Just a little bit!
Hold on.
Gu Nansheng gritted his teeth and stubbornly completed the last step of equipment upgrading, purple light flashed, and a three-star agile loafer was successfully synthesized.
Then Gu Nansheng seemed to have lost all his strength, and fell to the ground with an ordinary thud.
But he didn't fall asleep, but sat up with difficulty supporting his body, and began to meditate and breathe, his spiritual power flowed in his body in circles according to the running route created by the Lich King, Gu Nansheng felt that he was like bathing in his own spiritual sea, and everything in his body seemed to be presented in front of his eyes, which had never been so clear.
After that hellish year, Gu Nansheng had completely learned the nightmare, and the nightmare actually had only one function, that is, to break the spiritual confinement of the cultivator and maximize the potential of the cultivator.
Spiritual power is like a lake, ordinary people only use half of it to reach the limit, have to rest or even coma, and wait until the lake is full to use it again, so that no matter how much mental power is used, the total amount of spiritual power remains the same, and the intelligence value will always be what it is.
And the nightmare training method is to use pain to make the cultivator unable to fall unconscious when he wants to be unconscious, and keep squeezing the spiritual power of the cultivator until the lake is completely dried up, this is not the end, the pain will force the cultivator to overdraft the spiritual power, and even the muddy water at the bottom of the lake has to be dug out, in this way, the lake will deepen, and when it is filled with water again, the spiritual power of the cultivator has reached a new level.
The speed of time in the spiritual world is different from that in the real world, and no one knows how long they have to stay in the painful spiritual world, so this cultivation method is very cruel, not everyone can survive it, and if they are not careful, they will become crazy or idiots.
The moonlight in the room seemed to be shattered into stars, and purple energy converged from all directions to the center of Gu Nansheng's eyebrows, and the sorrow of frost let out a whining.
