Chapter 18 Repairing the Imperial City

Chapter 18 Repairing the Imperial City

[His Majesty the Emperor of Lin Kingdom is a little distressed. The buildings in the imperial city have been in disrepair for a long time and are no longer as prosperous as they used to be. Please work together to repair the designated buildings. 】

[This mission is the first large-scale mission in "The Other Shore". All brave men are asked to give full play to their personal talents and abilities and obtain more mission contributions. 】

[Task contribution can be exchanged for experience points. After the task is completed, the brave men who rank in the top 100 in cumulative task contribution will receive generous rewards.]

There are large tasks just after arriving, and new players are very happy.

The players followed the task prompts and gathered in an open space on the outskirts of the city. Next to it was a timely shop, and on the other side was the construction site where they worked hard.

Several NPCs that had never been seen before appeared, all of them were in their thirties or fifties, wearing masks. Some of them guided the players to bake bricks, some guided the players to smelt iron, and guided the players to choose jobs that they were interested in.

Do.

Players receive tasks from these mysterious NPCs, reach level ten by doing them, and then complete the job change tasks in a daze.

The player didn't react until he saw the professional title that appeared on his character's head from nowhere.

Su Xianyu counted the national fortune values ​​​​that were lined up to receive, and smiled with crooked eyebrows.

"Zai Zai, what do you want to eat today?"

"I'm not hungry today." Zaizai raised his arms to straighten his messed up hair, his expression serious and not at all impatient.

"How about changing into a robe?" Su Xianyu, who was well aware of his handicap and speed, did not think about the possibility of sewing clothes by himself. He clicked on the Guoyun Value Mall and picked out a golden piece.

Little dragon robe.

Although the little dragon robe that Zai Zai wears is very clean, how can a well-behaved Zai Zai only have one piece of clothing to wear? Of course you have to buy it for him!

The clothes in the National Fortune Mall are not very expensive, and a set costs just over 100 National Fortune Values. Su Xianyu has just received the reputation rewards for four tasks, and has plenty of money. If the task of repairing the imperial city is completed, he can still

Earn one thousand points of national fortune value.

Su Xian spent the money he had spent on buying clothes for Zai Zai without hesitation. After clicking one button to change his clothes, Zai Zai shone like the most beloved little crown prince in the royal family of a great country.

Appeared in front of Su Xianyu.

Zaizai's eyebrows are very beautiful, white and tender, and she wears a golden dragon robe, which makes her look noble and pretty.

Su Xianyu shouted "Zai Zai", "Zi Zai", and remembered another thing.

"Zai Zai, do you have a name?"

"If you don't have a name, can I give you one?"

Zaizai looked up at her, a little dazed.

name?

It seems there is.

But I can't remember.

Zaizai didn't say anything, so Su Xianyu acquiesced. He dug out the Lin Kingdom Royal Family's naming guide from the library, carefully read every word, and finally selected a word that looked good and had a good meaning.

"How about just calling her Yan Yan? Yan from Hai Qing He Yan, Yan Xiao Yan Yan, together they are called Yan Yan."

Su Xianyu never liked to read serious books. She knew how much she weighed, so she finally found a word that she knew, liked, and had a good meaning. Her eyes were filled with tiny and sparkling smiles.

Zaizai nodded blankly, and the infrastructure system did not raise any objection. So on Su Xianyu's personal panel, Lin Guo's national destiny incarnation had a name - Yan Yan.

Su Xianyu is writing a new game announcement. The announcement clearly spells out the rules that players need to abide by after entering the imperial city, making it easier for the houtouling puppet guards to follow and arrest people and put them in jail.

The progress of the task of repairing the Imperial City was stuck in the preparation stage. The players worked diligently on the task for several days. The level gap between the new and old players of "The Other Side" was evened, and the wealth level was not much different.

"The Other Shore" makes money, "The Other Shore" spends it, and don't even think about leaving a single silver.

Qian Duoduo took out two silver beans from the small cloth bag he sewed and asked the shopkeeper for a bowl of fish meal. He squatted aside and ate it, sweating profusely.

The weather is getting hotter day by day, and the sound of cicadas in the woods is annoying.

There were tasks to be done, and they were not allowed to enter the city. They could only learn skills by stepping on the hot land with their heads in the scorching sun. Players who had never had this experience felt something was wrong, but they fell into the pit one by one.

Can't get out.

Currently, they are all learning crafts, such as clay-burning bricks, wood carving, etc. in the game, which are skills that are basically of no use in reality.

But because it is an ancient craft that has been eliminated and forgotten, players find it interesting and are willing to learn it.

They were willing to do it subjectively, but their physical strength did not allow them to learn the skill with such enthusiasm.

Every two or three hours, your physical strength will bottom out. At this time, you need to go to the nearby shop to buy some food to replenish your physical strength.

Being forced to go offline makes it easier to let go of this energy, just like you have tasted a delicacy that you miss in your heart but can't eat, and you feel itchy in your heart.

As the number of players increased, all kinds of players came forward.

There are those who explore the world without completing tasks, and there are those who follow in the footsteps of [Invite You to the Urn] and [Cold Parsley] and plan to visit the imperial city privately and are sent to jail.

The live broadcast of the game "The Other Side" is very popular these days.

As the only one among the four major professions in "The Other Shore" who has successfully changed his profession to a businessman, Ling is forming his own chamber of commerce and preparing to compete with the officialdom.

Ling didn't do anything else. She consulted the shopkeeper of Timely Store about many business ideas, and then successfully obtained the job change task of [Businessman].

After assisting the shopkeeper in selling enough goods to complete the job transfer task, Ling received the title of [Businessman], as well as a small shop, a merchant backpack and a "Business Book" as the first person to be transferred to a merchant.

Each page of the "Business Manual" needs to be unlocked by spending money. Ling spent a hundred silver to unlock the first page and obtained the location of the barren mountain where stone can be mined.

The mountain was established, and gunpowder was quickly prepared.

Among the materials that players need to repair the imperial city are stones, the demand is not small, and various materials are prepared by the players themselves.

Ling seized this opportunity and hired a group of players who had not changed jobs to quarry stones. The collected stones would be directly delivered to Ling's merchant backpack, eliminating transportation costs.

The shop presented as a gift was not a shop, but a fifty-square-meter piece of land. Ling chose the location of the shop outside the city and hired someone to build a strong and beautiful wooden structure shed filled with stones of different specifications.

She is in the player business.

Not just doing this one deal, but also planning to do long-term business.

Stone is not expensive, players can afford it, and it saves the effort of collecting materials.

Players also admit that the food in "The Other Shore" is delicious.

However, who would want to eat food that burns your mouth and makes you sweat even after a long day of hard work on a hot day?

It’s okay not to eat it, the food is really delicious,

Among the more than a thousand players, most of them have changed their jobs and become workers.

Not many were transferred to agricultural jobs, and only one was transferred to commercial jobs.

"Shopkeeper, I have delivered today's bean sprouts." Ah yes yes yes, he pushed a hand cart and unloaded several large bags of bean sprouts from the cart, with a smile on his face.

The shopkeeper came out of the shop and carried the bean sprouts into the shop. When paying for the bean sprouts, he casually asked, "Are there any mung beans for sale?"

Ah, yes, he was stunned. The mung beans were hard and tasteless. In his opinion, the only use was to sprout bean sprouts. Why did the shopkeeper suddenly ask about mung beans?

"Yes, yes, this price -"

"A pound of mung beans costs five silver, which costs about ten pounds. Do you have any?"

One pound of mung beans can produce more than ten pounds of bean sprouts, and a bag of twenty pounds of bean sprouts only costs five silver. After calculating the balance, I felt that the deal was feasible, so I agreed.

"Yes, yes, yes - when will the shopkeeper want it? I'll hurry up and collect the mung beans so that they can be delivered to you as soon as possible!"

"I need it right now. Send me as much as you have."

Ah, yes, yes, he grinned, took out a cloth bag from his personal granary and put it on the table.

"That's all I brought with me. If it's not enough, I'll go back and collect more."

The shopkeeper picked up the bag, weighed it, and gave a golden bean to the honest-looking farmer in front of him.

"The mung beans in this bag are less than two kilograms, so I'll count them as two kilograms. I'll send another two kilograms later."

Holding a small golden bean in the palm of his hand, he smiled with his teeth missing and nodded vigorously: "Okay, I'll go back and prepare!"
