The job position of scholar is too special. What he provides is basic "reading and writing" skills.
It doesn't make much sense on its own. After all, operators, typists, and transcribers are too replaceable. But when they are combined with other jobs and content, they often lead to qualitative changes.
The various branches of "scholars", including craftsmen, singers, chess players, painters, sculptors, potion masters, chefs, etc., involve all aspects of civilization. They are too numerous and complicated, and many including gardeners and doctors
Although scholars are not required to work part-time in "late-stage" occupations, most people will choose their auxiliary abilities.
And when the concepts of "life" and "finance" of the Life Bank and the "contract", "writing" and "offer" abilities of the Scholar Contractors come together, a qualitative change will naturally occur.
"Well, my ability has been upgraded. You should be able to 'loan' 200 points. Whether or not to take out a loan depends on your own consideration. After all, there is no stable point income mechanism, the market is too small, and the tax rate is not low to be honest.
.....”
Lu Ping'an was also a little helpless, maybe because this was the "bank" and "life" he expected, and the life bank strictly followed the rules.
To put it bluntly, it means making money within the rules, and the taxes are very harsh, but there is no positive feedback at all outside the rules, and it looks like you can use it if you want to use it or not.
Now the "market" is too small, and everyone is worried that too much negative points will lead to a series of negative consequences. Opening up loans will not actually activate the market, but if new people enter the market later, it can have an effect.
As for the "offer" and "auction" functions on the transaction column, they are also quite easy to use. In the past, transactions had to be done person-to-person, which had too many restrictions.
Now, one party only needs to make an "offer", limit the "task content", "transaction content", and "specify remuneration", and then wait for the transaction party to complete it directly.
The flexibility and convenience are so great, but there is still the same problem, no one has money, and there is no market, but the new function finally unlocked seems to be solving this problem.
"...If you breach the contract, the equivalent 'life property' will be confiscated in the name of the Life Bank. If the secrets of the Life Bank are leaked to the outside world, your life will be confiscated... Such a heavy punishment,
Can you afford it?"
Still in the reception room, the spiritually transformed Guan Xinxian did not object to the harshness of the "contract", but was surprised that Lu Ping'an could bear such a high price.
A supernatural contract actually consists of three parties, Party A, Party B, and the contract maker/guarantor.
There are no lawyers or judges in the mortal world who deal with contract disputes here. There must be a third party to ensure the limited nature of the contract. This is also the basis for the birth of the Contractor profession.
In a sense, this is a "self-curse", and the self-curse of Party A and Party B makes it impossible for them to avoid the penalty clauses.
But the maker of the contract also needs to make a contribution. Even if four taels are worth a thousand pounds, there must be that four taels... Deficit warnings are cheap and easy to use. The core is that the punishment has almost no lethality.
The burden will be very low.
To "curse" a third-level person, you need to leave enough magic power in the contract, and the consumption of it can severely damage the vitality of the second- and third-level contractor, so it is also very expensive to sell.
"The guarantor is not me, but..." Lu Ping'an clicked his feet. Guan Xinxian was stunned at first, and then suddenly realized.
The Life Bank, this seventh-level ability and above, this independent secret realm of life, is the "contract guardian" who plays the role of intermediary and guarantor.
"...It can be seen that this contract is quite high-level. You should have seen the high level of life points. Then, the responsibility for breach of contract is something we cannot bear at least in the short term...
..”
Lu Ping'an did not hide anything and said these words clearly.
Guan Xinxian read the terms again and confirmed the content.
This is a long-term cooperation and confidential contract, which includes the benefits of providing various infrastructure facilities in the courtyard, priority in enjoying investment and other special ability sharing, etc.
The positions of both parties are actually relatively consistent. In addition to revenge, they are also in a period of rapid growth of accumulating resources, and the content of the terms is more about growth.
Although it feels subtle that the penalty for leaking secrets is heavier than the penalty for breach of contract, it can be seen that it is still very sincere in all aspects.
Is the punishment too severe? Just seeing everything already has this value.
This contract was the result of Lu Ping'an's review of hundreds of contracts and offers. He referred to common cooperation contracts and confidentiality contracts, and the conditions given were relatively broad.
If nothing else, the newcomers will have to sign a copy.
“A pleasure to work with.”
When the handwriting of the signature fell and the triplicate agreement had just been completed, one of them burned silently and disappeared into the reception room... This was the completion of the filing of the Life Bank.
By the way, this deed is not a simple thing. The more powerful the contract, the stronger the carrier. For a contract that allows the Life Bank to bear the punishment of life and death, a deed worth several thousand dollars is simply not enough.
Fortunately, after obtaining the rules of the "contract", the bank itself can also mass-produce deed paper... But the paper seems to be a product of the rules. After leaving the bank, it will naturally dissipate when it is far away from the safe road.
This is similar to the "business card" obtained by Lu Ping'an. It should also be part of the bank's operation, but this time it is a paid service...
"A set of 10 life points is worth buying for peace of mind."
When everything returned to calm, Lu Pingan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled with satisfaction.
It's not that he has any doubts about Guan Xinxian, but that the agreement was successfully reached, which made him relieved, and his plan can proceed smoothly... For a long time, he has repeatedly hesitated whether to open the secret realm, not because he was worried about leaking secrets.
.
With this life bank of at least seven levels as the confidentiality clause under the "contractor", the life of the leaker will be taken away in an instant. I can finally relax a little in this regard, and I should consider recruiting more reliable people.
Allies.
After joining the team, Lu Ping An naturally has to make the best use of everything... Ahem, let's introduce the local team's benefits to the new members.
"Snapped!"
With a snap of the fingers, the originally locked door on the first floor opened, and a world appeared outside.
After passing through the fog covered by the spirit body, Lu Ping'an saw the surprise and shock on Guan Xinxian's face.
Perhaps, for him before, because these two rooms were everything.
A small independent room, a complete secret realm is not a concept at all. At this moment, he was really scared.
"Ahem, let's go, let me introduce you to my garden. I can allocate a piece of land. Don't underestimate my garden. This is a place for higher-level beings, a paradise for gardeners..."
The garden is not yet a regular building in the bank's judgment, but this time the bank's upgrade has made the secret realm a lot larger. A large amount of expanded wasteland can be used for "farming" with a little tidying up.
It would be too wasteful for Lu Ping'an to use it alone. This incredibly high-level land can even support regular-level magic plants. Treasures that gardeners never dream of can naturally be used as welfare.
As for Lu Pingping, he still has some personal thoughts.
"...This is the design drawing of my landscape, as well as the current design ideas. Look, my magic plants have been planted here. Please help me think about it and see if I can strengthen it...
..."
The garden is a gardener's workshop. In order to improve his "combat power", Lu Pingan needs on-site guidance from a big brother.
"By the way, what do you think about the garden? I am a newcomer after all, and the layout and land reclamation are all according to the script..."
The gardener's garden design and layout also require the guidance of a true expert.
The more he visited, the more shocked Guan Xinxian was, and he even felt vaguely uneasy.
This land is so fertile that the "pollution concentration" in it can even cause your low-level magic plants to germinate within a few minutes. But the most outrageous thing is that I don't feel "polluted" at all.
This means that all pollution is in order and all pollution has been domesticated.
The pollution of life in the land is so powerful, but the life on it seems to be completely indifferent. This contradictory and wrong feeling reminds Guan Xinxian of a legend, a legend whose voice can only be heard...
"The realm of gods, the kingdom of gods on earth..."
