Chapter 326: Investigating the Spies
PS: (Thanks to Mo Xiaoshi for the precious monthly ticket)
In the Fuyun Building of Baoding City, the bosses of all parties involved in dealing with Yingkou were gathering, and their faces were extremely ugly. From time to time, he glanced at Xuanyuan Jian.
This time, each boss lost a lot of money, in addition to the money to buy the base in Yingkou, and the money spent on the way to Yingkou. Each of them sent thousands of people to Yingkou, and thousands of people had food, lodging and transportation expenses on the way, which added up to a huge number.
As long as it is a team of thousands of people, the cost along the way exceeds the cost of buying a base area, and the huge loss makes many bosses sad. Soon they received the news again that the men on the Yingkou border were being slaughtered by NPCs, and almost all the players who rushed to Yingkou to participate in the operation dropped one level. It is not easy to improve the level after level 30, and the overall level of a base player unit has dropped by one level, which has reached the point of breaking the muscles and bones, which affects the combat effectiveness of the troops.
The failure made many people lose their coolness, and soon some players said in a deep voice: "Boss Xuanyuan Sword, we all trust you to participate in the plan, this time the loss is so heavy, should you give us all an explanation." ”
The player who spoke was named Yizhou Mu, who was from Yizhou Province in southwest China and had a medium-sized base in Yizhou. Yizhou Mu is very interested in Yingkou's machines, this time he traveled thousands of miles from the southwest to the northeast, just to set up a small arsenal in Yizhou with several machines after the plan succeeds, and complete his grand goal of becoming the king and hegemony in Yizhou, but the cruelty of reality made him lose his calm.
The journey from the southwest to the northeast was long, and Yizhou Mu spent a lot of money, so he couldn't help but fire at the Xuanyuan Sword. After he questioned Xuanyuan Jian, soon a slightly chubby young man followed: "That's it! Xuanyuan Sword Boss, you have a lot of money, you don't care about the loss this time, but we can't afford to toss like this! Our players have also admitted it. But the money invested, does the Xuanyuan Sword Boss give us some consideration? ”
The chubby young man named Ma Rulong, from Lingnan Province, also invested a lot of money. Yizhou Mu is actually a rich family, and although the loss of a lot of money is painful, it is not so painful. Ma Rulong doesn't have much money in reality. This participation plan invested almost all the liquidity in the base area, and he hoped that Xuanyuan Sword could compensate for everyone's losses for the sake of fame.
Xuanyuan Jian is a child of a top family, and his roots are thicker than Ma Rulong's thighs, so Ma Rulong has this thought. Facing the questioning of the two, Xuanyuan Jian had a sneer on his face, of course he couldn't be the one who was wronged and bear all the losses, there were forty-four families involved in the mission this time, if everyone asked him to be responsible for the loss, even he would have a headache with this money.
These people are willing to participate in the plan, in the final analysis, because Yingkou is a piece of fat. Everyone wants to take a bite, the plan fails, and they want Xuanyuan Sword to pay, how can there be such a good thing? He sneered and said, "In order to win everyone's trust, this plan was not kept secret, and we even discussed it together. I made the plan correctly, but they are all voluntary, as long as the investment will be risky, you are the leader of one party, so simple reason I don't understand? ”
The other players were speechless. In fact, they also understand the truth, but they always have some extravagant hopes in their hearts. Xuanyuan Sword's indifferent attitude made them dispel the illusion that Xuanyuan Sword wanted to compensate them for their losses. But because of this complete failure, they felt in their hearts that although Xuanyuan Sword was famous, there was still a big gap between it and Chen Baxian, and it was not unjust to lose in the hands of Chen Baxian every time.
Xuanyuan Jian guessed what these players thought, and he said lightly, "I don't want to justify my plan, but we're just starting to act. Yingkou issued two announcements one after another, which just hit our weakness and made us have no power to fight back, do you think it's a coincidence? ”
The successive blows made the bosses lose their temper, and after listening to Xuanyuan Jian's words, they calmed down, and had to admit that Xuanyuan Jian was right. When Xuanyuan Sword made a plan. They all thought that the success of the plan might be great and they were willing to invest, and this failure was really not a problem with the plan.
Ma Rulong said excitedly: "Xuanyuan Sword Boss is right, the opponent eats us to death everywhere, and someone definitely leaked the news in advance." ”
"It's obvious that we were betrayed, and it's normal for us to lose so badly."
Xuanyuan Jian waved his hand to signal the player to calm down: "Brothers, it's certain that someone leaked the news. To say something that I am not afraid of offending everyone, for the sake of safety, after making the plan, I arranged for people to monitor your movements near the Baoding Military Academy to prevent anyone from leaking the news, but I did not find anyone in contact with Chen Ba first. ”
"The people who betrayed us either befriended Chen Ba first, or they did it for profit. Chen Ba first established a base and then had close contacts with the mysterious forces now entrenched in Benxi, but according to the information I have, he has no friendship with everyone here. I think that the person who betrayed us this time was for profit, so he would definitely bargain with Chen Ba first, and the two must have met. ”
"Although the people I arranged around the Baoding Military Academy did not find out who had contact with Chen Baxian, they saw through the binoculars that Chen Baxian had left the military academy on the day we made our plan. It's a pity that Chen Baxian is very strong in individual soldiers, and my people lost him, and I didn't expect him to go to the street to meet one of the people here. ”
Now that the leak of the plan has been confirmed, it is certain that the player who contacted Chen Baxian at that time was the leaker. The street near the military academy is not big, and the two will definitely not meet in public, only a nearby shop. Knowing that all forty-four of the planned people were here, I suggested that no one should leave, and that we should only go and check the shops on the street, and if any of them were involved in this shop, he would definitely be the leaker. ”
The players applauded one after another, and Yizhou Mu gave Xuanyuan Sword a thumbs up and said: "The boss of Xuanyuan Sword is really fine, the shops on the streets of Baoding are basically run by NPCs, and players don't have the energy to do ordinary business after taking down the shops." We're going to be able to find out the leaker and get a bad breath. ”
Ma Rulong said with anger on his face: "Boss Xuanyuan, if we find out who betrayed everyone, we must let him be completely finished in the game." ”
Xuanyuan Jian said with a murderous face: "Brother Ma, don't worry, I said before the action that anyone who dares to leak the news will make it impossible for him to gain a foothold in the game, and now is the time to investigate." ”
The crowd in Fuyun Tower was excited, and Lin Zhi, who betrayed the news, also angrily denounced the leaker, but secretly complained in his heart. He was already very careful, and he did not hesitate to set up a shop in order to meet Chen Hao, but he didn't expect Xuanyuan Jian to find out this according to the clues.
As long as Xuanyuan Jian and the others inquire one by one and know which cloth village is run by the player, they can arrest the shopkeeper and the guys of the cloth village for interrogation. An NPC like the shopkeeper has no discipline, and there is a high chance of betraying Lin Zhi under coercion and temptation, at this time he is like sitting on pins and needles, and he only hopes that the shopkeeper and the guy's character will be strong and not identify him.
Lin Zhi didn't use the name of the game when he went down to the cloth village, but the shopkeeper knew his appearance, and he couldn't rely on him if he wanted to identify him. Lin Zhi is also a number one person, although he was nervous to death when he went to the street to investigate, his face was full of anger on the surface, no different from other bosses.
Xuanyuan Jian led people to inquire about the past, and finally approached the cloth village under Lin Zhi's plate, and Lin Zhi couldn't help but feel weak in his legs. He has too little confidence in the discipline of the shopkeeper and his buddies, and if he is identified as the boss of the cloth village in person, he doesn't know how to deal with it, and it will be over in the game in the future.
Xuanyuan Jian walked into the cloth shop, he smiled and said: "Shopkeeper, I heard that your store is run by strangers, I want to sell this store at a high price, can you let your boss come over." ”
Lin Zhi was beating a drum in his heart, and when he entered the cloth shop, he lowered his head, for fear that the shopkeeper would see himself in the crowd. He heard the shopkeeper say: "Wait a while, our boss said, anyone in this shop can take the plate, but it must be 10,000 oceans, as long as we pay 10,000 oceans, our boss will come to meet." ”
Lin Zhi couldn't help but be surprised, he had never instructed the shopkeeper like this, why did the shopkeeper dare to make his own claim? Just when he was curious, Xuanyuan Jian took out 10,000 oceans and said, "This is 10,000 oceans, the shopkeeper should find the boss!" There were more than 40 people with me, and the shopkeeper was bothered to see if the boss was inside. ”
The shopkeeper waved his hand at Xuanyuan Jian and said, "Our boss is drinking tea in the house!" I'm going to call him out, and you wait here. ”
The shopkeeper walked into the backyard with 10,000 oceans, and after a while, Xuanyuan Jian heard a familiar voice: "This store is only worth 500 oceans at most, I have only been down for less than a few hours, and there are really people who buy 10,000 oceans, and it is really easy to make money!" ”
Hearing this voice, Xuanyuan Jian's face couldn't help but twitch a few times, he knew that it was impossible to find out the traitor, damn Chen Baxian had already prepared in advance. It was Chen Hao who came out of the inner courtyard, he was very careful when he left the military academy as Chen Baxian, and he felt that someone was following him on the street, and it took some effort to avoid the stalker.
Although he got rid of the tracker, after Lin Zhi revealed the news, he still thought about whether Xuanyuan Sword would check the street shop floor. He said that the store had only been teasing Xuanyuan Sword for a few hours, but in fact, at the same time as Yingkou started to act, he had already forged a note to find the shopkeeper of the cloth shop, telling the shopkeeper Lin Zhi to sell the shop to him, and he became the new owner of the cloth shop.
Because Chen Hao and Lin Zhi had a secret conversation in the inner courtyard, it was a crime to forge a written note, and Lin Zhi never appeared, so the shopkeeper did not suspect it. Low-level NPCs such as shopkeepers and buddies, whoever is the boss they will accept their employment, and they default to the master becoming Chen Hao.
Chen Hao has the Emperor's Heart Trick, and the two NPCs can't betray him after they are loyal to him, so he immediately warns the two NPCs to pretend not to know Lin Zhi. When Xuanyuan Jian and his party entered the cloth shop, the shopkeeper and the guys all saw Lin Zhi, but they remembered Chen Hao's instructions and did not go to greet Lin Zhi.
