Chapter 82: Second-Order City

There are many details in Lacey's story that are not mentioned, such as the fact that he talks about his "ex-girlfriend", which must be a long story, but since the other party doesn't want to talk about it, they can't ask about these private matters. As for these people who blame Lacey for their faults, Xia Chiyu's opinion is the same as Gu Qinyan's.

"It's sad to blame someone else's departure for your weakness, but it's also human." Xia Chiyu cut a piece of meat from the wild boar and ate it, "But I think that the resentment of ordinary players is only temporary, and soon they will forget about it, and the real trouble still comes from those red players you dealt with back then." ”

"Well, that's right, after all, ordinary players just need to change districts." Lacey nodded and said.

"Isn't it, the guy who came to find fault just now doesn't seem to be a red player, right?" Su Xing pointed to the direction where the black-and-white armored knight left before and said, "That guy doesn't seem to be a bad guy, if he is a red name, it is impossible for you to walk away consciously just now, right?" ”

"That's right." Xia Chiyu nodded and said, "Anyway, our level is not high now, so let's avoid it first." ”

Saying that, Xia Chiyu looked at Gu Qinyan: "Speaking of which, I seem to have heard Yang Zhilong say something about you last time." ”

Gu Qinyan's face was expressionless, and he sighed lightly and said, "Let's talk about it at another time, there is already a story today." ”

"However, we can't completely stop returning to the city, if we don't return to the city for too long, if we stay in the wild, the frequency of fatigue will become faster and faster, and we can't level up at all." Su Xing said absentmindedly gnawing on wild boar.

"There must be some scattered villages around here." Xia Chiyu wiped his hands and said, "We can take turns to go back to the City of Ancient Trees, anyway, we can directly teleport back to District 24, and the new buildings on the side of the City of Ancient Trees also need to be arranged." ”

"You go back first, I've already arranged the basic buildings I need." Gu Qinyan replied, "We'll take a look at the situation around here first, and find a village to go back to rest." ”

"Okay, let's go back and arrange the new building." Xia Chiyu said, waved his hand to Gu Qinyan and the others, and then went straight to open the guild teleportation. The surrounding scenery collapses into green 0s and 1s, and then condenses again into a new scene.

At this time, the Ancient Tree City that appeared in front of me was different from the Ancient Tree City that could only be called a village, and the area was twice as large as before, and now it was comparable to a small town. The walls were strengthened, from wooden walls to solid stone walls, and there were dozens more building slots inside, and the city was not yet full.

"Hey, you're back from eating fish?" At this time, Ye Ziyuan was chatting with her group of younger brothers on the edge of the fountain in the middle of the city, and she said hello with a smile when she saw Xia Chiyu. Xia Chiyu smiled and said: "Yes, it's easy to get tired after staying outside for too long, come back and take a rest and pick a few new buildings by the way." ”

"Alas, it's good to have someone with me, it's more than forty levels in two days, and it took me two months to practice to level forty at that time, and I died a few times halfway through." Ye Ziyuan muttered, and Xia Chiyu smiled bitterly: "It's okay, we can take you like this next time you die." Then I'll go back to the guild first, you can talk. ”

"Well, we'll be over later, see you later." Ye Ziyuan smiled vividly and waved his hand.

The 100,000 star coins raised by Xia Chiyu and the three of them are more than enough to build a second-level city, not to mention that all the spare building columns can be filled, and they can also be directly upgraded to the second level at one time.

"Do this, Warehouse." Xia Chiyu chose one on the building interface and said, "This can be exchanged for materials with some materials and systems, and these materials can be bought with money." Now we have a lot of money and can keep it in a state of producing materials all the time. The speed of producing materials is comparable to that of a lumber plant, but it is only a cost and a labor. ”

"Well, and it doesn't pollute the city like a lumber yard." Cheng Ming nodded.

"In this way, the resources given by the farm are enough to continue to upgrade, and you should be able to upgrade the third-level fortress in half a month. We've got a lot of bookings for shops again, and lately there have been more and more mobile players in the city. Liu Yiyu said with a smile.

"Because we are here in the level 50 area, there are many leveling points and dungeon refresh points nearby, and it is very convenient to settle here for future leveling." Xia Chiyu explained, "When the city grows, there will be more and more people. ”

The current second-tier cities alone have a monthly profit of nearly 10,000 star coins, but because they have to be distributed to each player who participates in the construction of the city in proportion to the contribution value, it is not much.

"Then we have to make up a few more houses, the population is obviously not enough." Xiao Younu said.

"No, upgrade all the existing houses to level 2 and double the number of players." Xia Chiyu replied, "If the house can be upgraded to three levels in the future, you don't need to do too much, it will occupy the building column." Now there are still four building bars left in the city, and I will build two buildings to make money, and then make a trading place, and an entertainment place is the best. ”

"Then let's build an arena and a casino to make money?" Zhang Zhiwei built a yì road next to him.

"No, the gladiatorial arena will be affected by the city level, if it is a second-level city, the area of the gladiatorial arena is very small, and the audience that can be accommodated is also very small, and it has no effect with the casino, it is best to wait for the fourth-level city." Xia Chiyu shook his head, "The auction house of the trading venue is definitely going to be one, an entertainment venue, there are many couples in the city, you can make a movie theater." ”

The movie theater in AO is the same as in reality, the city management buys the rights from the producer and then plays it in the movie theater, and the players in the city buy movie tickets with star coins to watch it, which is exactly the same as going to the movie theater to watch a 3D movie.

"Well, great idea! So I can pick and choose which movies to buy for myself, hee-hee. Those out-of-the-way movies are always not played, and they are obviously very good-looking. Liu Yiyu clapped her hands happily and smiled.

"No one will watch the copyrights of those out-of-the-way movies if they buy them, don't make a loss-making deal, Xiaoyu." At this time, Wu Tianlun walked in from outside, patted Liu Yiyu's brain and smiled, and then greeted everyone, "Hello everyone." ”

"Aaron is back, is the situation of new members playing dungeons?" Cheng Ming asked with a smile, "During this time, we are all managing the construction of the city, and it is really hard to trouble the newcomers you bring." ”

As Cheng Ming said, Wu Tianlun did not participate in the construction of the city at all during this time, his contribution was very low, and he did not propose any construction of the building, and he didn't seem to care about the construction of the city at all, but had been helping to bring new people, accompany them to play dungeons, and look for shops everywhere to pick up tasks and so on.

Since the City of Ancient Trees is located in the level 50 map area, many shops have opened branches in the City of Ancient Trees, specializing in selling some equipment and player supplies around level 50, and purchasing materials around level 50, and business will be better than in big cities. In a main city like the 34th arrondissement, the general situation of buying and selling equipment and materials for novices is better.

In the meantime, with the number of new guild members increasing, the quest is more than enough. However, in order to maintain this balance, the development of the city must continue, otherwise the number of quests offered by the shops cannot keep up with the increase in members, and a vicious circle will be formed, leading players who have not received quests for a long time to quit.

In addition, the City of Ancient Trees is the area of their guild after all, and there is a certain advantage when looking for dungeons, and between this, there is a steady stream of players joining the guild, and now they will be a medium-sized guild with more than 400 people. And Wu Tianlun is responsible for assigning these players to go out to find dungeons and do tasks every day, and he is just as busy as them.

Xia Chiyu just responded briefly, and then continued to discuss with Cheng Ming and the others.

Finally, the two large buildings in the city that were used to make money, they chose tailor shops and processing factories. The tailor shop can process some materials into fabric, which can be sold to the tailors of those clothing shops to make clothes for zuò transformation, and the tailor shop that has reached level 2 can also increase the production by sending a player with tailoring skills to station.

In the current era when players are crazy about transmogrification, the demand for materials in clothing stores is quite high, and the price is also very expensive, so it is a very good choice to make money. The second, profitable construction factory, can process a variety of materials, including meat from farms, scrap from recycling stations to build equipment, and fabrics from tailors.

Processed meat, scraps, and fabrics are turned into more advanced materials, especially meat. There are two sources of high-grade ingredients for AO, one is a low chance of falling from wild monsters, and the other is a certain chance to be obtained after processing, such as B-level ingredients that are at least upgraded to A-level after processing, and a low chance to be upgraded to S-level, which is also very good to use to make money.

Moreover, this kit will be able to integrate perfectly with their previous choice of farms, recycling stations, and tailors, as well as provide materials for the blacksmith shops and restaurants opened by players in the city, making them self-sufficient.

"Alright, that's it for now." Xia Chiyu nodded, and everyone looked around at the city under construction, and suddenly sighed in unison: Looking at the development from the city of ancient trees from a dilapidated small village to a lively town now, the guild has also grown from seven people at the beginning to more than four hundred people today, and its sense of accomplishment is self-evident.

As soon as he came out of the council hall, Xia Chiyu and Zhang Zinuo met head-on, and the other party seemed to be waiting for him, and when he came out, he immediately greeted him and asked, "Eat fish, are you free tonight?" ”

"I'm quite free every day...... Xia Chiyu replied with a wry smile, Zhang Zinuo pursed his lips and smiled: "Come out and eat together tonight?" ”

"Okay, where are we meeting?" Xia Chiyu replied with a little surprise, Zhang Zinuo thought for a while and said, "Then, is it okay for the Blue Cafe on East Street?" See you at five o'clock in the afternoon? ”

"Well, no problem." Xia Chiyu nodded and said, "See you then." ”
