Chapter 15: City of Destiny, Equivalent Exchange

In just a few minutes, the old man of Erhu deeply felt what it means to sit on pins and needles.

Every rhythm that floated out of the suona seemed to turn into a ruthless knife and stabbed hard in the chest.

Heart disease is going to be heard!

Every note falls in an unexpected position.

Finally......

When the song was played, the old man suddenly felt that he had been released from prison, and his whole body suddenly relaxed.

He pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but as soon as he raised his head, he saw Chen Ye showing a simple and simple smile.

"Master, doesn't it sound good?"

The corners of the old man's mouth twitched slightly, not knowing what to say.

Obviously, to be able to blow this suona, you need good music qualifications, after all, you have experienced the difficulty of this suona.

It's not an ordinary person, and it can't be played at all.

However, the sound that actually blows out is simply indescribable......

After a moment of silence, the old man Erhu gasped:

"Your music is truly unprecedented!"

Chen Ye smiled happily:

"Then Master, I'll blow it to you every day."

"No, no, no!" The old man Erhu smiled bitterly and waved his hand repeatedly, "You should travel the world and let the whole world hear your music, so that you can have a sense of accomplishment." ”

"Master, I'm already old, and my ears are not very good, so I'd better stop there......"

Seeing that Chen Ye still wanted to speak, the old man Erhu picked out three coins from the iron bowl in front of him and threw them over.

"Well, here's your performance fee."

Fortunately, Chen Ye reacted quickly, and the moment the coin was tossed, he immediately closed his mouth and immediately caught it with his hand.

Three bronze coins with a hard texture and a copper gloss. Between the light taps, there is a metallic clang.

Meanwhile.

In the personal interface, Chen Ye's assets changed from "0" to "3 copper coins".

"Master, didn't you give me a suona to teach me the way of music, why do you have to pay a performance fee to listen to the music?" Chen Ye wondered.

"That's different." The old man Erhu shook his head, "What I exchanged for suona is that I will make money with music in the future, and I can give some points to the old man for my pension, and I will not die of hunger." ”

"So, if I eat your sugar-fried chestnuts, or you make money to buy a house in the future, you can share a set of old man and me, that's reasonable."

"But music performance is your professional income, and you still have to give it."

Chen Ye was dumbfounded for a while, he didn't expect that the original equivalent exchange would have to be so fine.

"Of course, you don't have to pay for listening to my music, after all, listening to songs is also part of learning." The old man Erhu smiled.

I seem to understand a little...... Chen Ye gradually understood the conditions of the exchange of the old erhu.

In exchange for the income earned by Chen Ye after passing on the craft, such as the exchange of suona for fried chestnuts with sugar, or other part of the income from street performances, you can have the unconditional right to share.

But there will not be too many rights and interests to share, that is, they are designated for retirement.

For example, daily living expenses, food, clothing, housing and transportation......

As for the income obtained by Chen Ye outside of music, or other items that are not related to pension, he does not have the right to share.

In the past, during the closed beta, there was no rule for equivalent exchange, so should it be the setting of the new copy?

It's interesting......

It's worth researching, maybe it will be very safe for future production strategies!

Chen Ye's heart moved, and he asked, "Then Master, what would happen if we didn't follow the rules of equivalent exchange?" ”

The old man was silent for a moment, and sighed:

"Did you know that this city has an alias, what it's called?"

"What?"

"City of Destiny!"

The old man Erhu rarely showed a meaningful smile on his face, and he said:

"Hit everything you gained, and you have already secretly marked your chips."

"In this city, if any transaction is not carried out according to the rules of equivalent exchange, the chips paid in the future will be written in the fate of the future......"

"As for how long it will take to pay the price, whether it will be nearly a week, three months, a year, ten years, or a lifetime, it is unknown."

"There is a saying in the City of Destiny: I would rather rob than go into debt!"

The night was completely dark, and thick dark clouds covered the sky of the city.

In the silence, Chen Ye was silent, savoring this sentence......

During the closed beta of the game, the rules of equivalent exchange were not so complicated, and for the time being, they were just trading with some NPCs.

When "A Strange Era" comes to life, everything here is so real that it seems to transform into another world. Equivalent exchange is undoubtedly an important topic that requires careful consideration.

"Would you like some water?"

For some reason, the old erhu man picked up the water scoop in the bucket and fetched a bowl of water.

But at this time, in the dark, the expression of the old man Erhu was hidden in the shadows, which made people not see it very really.

Chen Ye was slightly stunned, only to realize that he hadn't drunk water for a long time. Although fried chestnuts with sugar can fill the stomach, the heat also makes the body dehydrated and the mouth dry.

He subconsciously wanted to take the water scoop and drink it all......

Suddenly.

Chen Ye seemed to have remembered something!

He took a copper coin out of his pocket and tossed it over.

The old man Erhu took the coin, was silent for a moment, and said with a smile:

"I really didn't mistake you kid, you learn very quickly!"

According to the terms of the exchange......

Although listening to the erhu old man eat Chen Ye's things, there is no need to pay a performance fee. Chen Ye listened to the performance of the old man Erhu, and he didn't have to pay any price. However, if you use the items of the old erhu, you will have to pay a price.

Ordinary people play this rule, go around and around, and they are likely to faint.

"Who said I was going to change the water?" Chen Ye smiled slightly, "The safe water source of the Xijiang River only needs to pay a copper coin, which can be exchanged for a week's right to use." ”

"You can fetch as much water as you want."

"It's a loss to exchange this scoop of water for a coin."

Along the way, watching posts in [Destiny Jianghu] and [Wind and Snow Moon], there are also some players who post information in the game.

Therefore, Chen Ye is not ignorant of this place.

The network connected by the scarlet mobile phone can be said to be an important source of information and intelligence in the early stage.

Chen Ye continued: "I will take care of my life in the future, and if there is anything, we can help each other." ”

The old man took the coin with a relieved expression on his face.

"Huh!"

"Worthy of my carefully selected apprentice!"

"Sure enough, I learned it quickly!"

Chen Ye also smiled, and a strange feeling suddenly appeared in his heart.

For some reason, when he said the phrase "help each other", he suddenly felt as if the characteristics of the [Wanderer] had been digested!

Wanderers, although humble as insects and ants, can still keep warm in a group. Hold up a flat boat in the storm and survive the bumpy and bumpy earthly road.

At this moment, he seemed to feel something change in his secret......

However, this change is wonderful, and it is difficult to describe where the change is for the time being.

Chen Ye was at peace in his heart, and he knew that he had finally landed tonight.

After the other players had to spend their first night in the most difficult way, they had found a place to be safe for the time being.

Just now, the test that the old man erhu gave himself can be regarded as successfully passed.

This test is not to do harm with the intention of harm, but to make yourself more aware of how to use the rules of this world.

Only people who genuinely help themselves will make such a move.

"It's also a wandering existence, and it needs to be friendly to each other......

For some reason, it was just a characteristic, but now Chen Ye feels as if he really has a "wandering heart".

Midnight.

The old man erhu lit a bonfire next to him, and then lay down to sleep very early, snoring like thunder.

It's like a pig snorting next to it.

Chen Ye was not sleepy for the time being, he was in good spirits, and there was a thunderous snoring sound of the old man Erhu nearby, and he couldn't fall asleep. But he can't move around now, it's safe to stay where he is.

In the middle of the night, you can't run around, and you can't blow suona to disturb the people!

Otherwise......

Not to mention inviting other "friendly" aborigines, the old erhu next to him may beat himself to death when he gets up!

The weird value is temporarily unswipeable......

Boredom, Chen Ye turned on the blood-colored phone again.

That's when it happened.

His eyes moved, and he suddenly noticed that there was a special transaction information in the [Weird Black Market] -
