Chapter 137: Can you be the teacher of Qiankun? (August October
This is a virtual space. Looking at the location, it should be an ancient restaurant.
Sun Ran walked up the wooden stairs to the third floor and arrived at a small cubicle.
The furnishings here are antique, with several bas-relief screens dividing it into a small room. Inside, there are two open-carved lotus chairs made of huanghuali wood placed side by side. There is a square table between the chairs, a purple sand pot on the table, and two small cups next to it.
.
When Sun Ran came in, someone was already sitting on one of the chairs.
This man was dressed in ancient clothes, with a black soft-footed headdress, a round-neck gown, and a Hetian jade buckle on his belt. When he saw Sun Ran coming in, he smiled and invited: "Taoist Priest Changqing, please sit down."
Because of Sun Ran's outstanding performance in the Confucian world, his temporary Taoist name "Chang Qing Zi" has become another name for him.
Naturally, Sun Ran would not be polite. He sat on the vacant Grand Master's chair and said with a smile, "I wonder what you want from me, sir?"
In this place rich in ancient charm, Sun Ran unconsciously spoke in an ancient style.
Wang Sixian smiled, first picked up the purple clay pot and gave Sun Ran a cup of tea, then smiled and said: "Taoist Priest, look at my outfit, which dynasty am I from?"
"The Tang Dynasty should be the early Tang Dynasty." Sun Ran could tell at a glance. He had done some research on Eastern history.
Wang Sixian laughed and praised: "The Taoist priest is right. I am exactly what a Tang Dynasty person wears, and this is why I am looking for you."
Sun Ran was all ears. He had a good impression of the Confucian world because he earned a lot of credit points from it.
"I am the director of Confucian Company, as you know. Our company has a black iron-level Ming Dynasty world under its name, and you have also entered and maintained order. However, according to history, after the Ming Dynasty, there will be the Qing Dynasty, and after the Qing Dynasty... it is enough
For more than a hundred years, our country, Greater China, has been miserable."
Wang Sixian sighed, picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, and stated the purpose of his trip: "No player likes to live in troubled times. Especially troubled times where foreigners bully them. I estimate that by the late Qing Dynasty, the number of players in our company will increase significantly.
It’s going down, so you have to prepare for a rainy day.”
When the time comes, if the number of players is not enough, they will have to use intelligent NPCs. However, NPCs generally have low IQs. It is estimated that after the players quit the game, the saying "the people are insensitive" will definitely pop up.
At this point, Sun Ran already understood. He smiled and said: "Do you want to delete the files and restart the game? Are you not afraid of complaints from players?"
Every game has a selling point. The selling point of the Confucian world is the glorious history of China in the past, but glory must come to an end. What should we do? Some unscrupulous game developers simply delete files and reopen the world. All previous game players have
To the new world. Very fucked up.
Wang Sixian smiled and said: "That doesn't mean we will delete the file. We are not unscrupulous businessmen. The current Confucian world will continue forever. However, in order to maintain the company's income, we opened another world half a year ago called "Datang Empire"
, the number of players is currently growing at a gratifying rate, and it is estimated that it will become the company’s main income in the near future.”
"Oh, then what are you looking for me for? Is there a saboteur?" Sun Ran felt happy in his heart. He was an Order, and if this guy was looking for him, it was just a mission.
When he talked about the saboteurs, Wang Sixian had a sad look on his face and sighed: "Oh, there are monsters all over the ground and gods and Buddhas all over the sky. We in heaven can't even control them. I really don't understand. Where did these saboteurs come from?
It came out of nowhere.”
"What on earth is going on?" It seems like there are many, many tasks.
Wang Sixian began to introduce the specific situation of the Tang Empire: "In half a year, we have catalyzed history to the founding year of the Sui Dynasty, and the heroes of the world are about to start fighting for hegemony. But before the war has begun, we find that a paradise pops up in the west. Various mountains, as long as The more dangerous places are occupied by monsters, which is really a headache."
"Then why don't you change the parameters? Wouldn't it be good to change them to those in the Dharma Ending Era?" Sun Ran was surprised.
"We originally wanted to do this. But in the ancient world, Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism were all part of culture, and the parameters had to be changed to what they were in the Age of Dharma Ending. The flavor of history would have changed, so...sigh."
This is a dilemma between game selling points and security. No wonder game companies are in a dilemma.
Wang Sixian made the main point today: "There are too many monsters, and there is also an inexplicable Buddha. I am looking for you today to invite you to become a long-term partner of our world and help us conquer monsters, just like the ancient governor. Normally, when patrolling the world in the Tang Empire, whoever causes trouble will be kicked out. You are the Master of the Universe of the Tang Empire, okay?"
Long-term cooperation partner? Sun Ran was very happy. This was equivalent to a golden rice bowl. As long as he did well, he could keep doing it. It was very good, and he even liked it.
Although he was satisfied in his heart, Sun Ran was noncommittal on the surface and said: "Tell me about the conditions for cooperation?"
Wang Sixian took another sip of tea and said: "We are very happy to cooperate in the Confucian world. In this way, we will send Chang'e as your contact person, you are familiar with it, right? In terms of remuneration, you are a Bronze Orderer, so for each task The basic reward is 10,000 credits. However, every time a destroyer is kicked out, we have additional rewards, and the price is the same as in the Confucian world. In addition, for every year you stay in the Confucian world, you will get 20,000 credits. Fixed salary in credits. What do you think?"
This condition is very generous, the basic remuneration is 10,000, but Sun Ran is sure to get a perfect rating every time, which is 30,000, and there is an additional kicking reward. There is also a fixed salary of 20,000, and he will stay for ten years, what? If you don't do it, it's 200,000.
This made him very satisfied, and he nodded and said: "Okay. Can you introduce my main opponent? For example, the Buddha or something."
"Buddha, who calls himself Sakyamuni, is an idealist. He wants to spread some kind of 'Mahayana Buddhism' in our Tang Empire. Although he is a destroyer, he has no bad deeds. This humanistic law is very high and can be created by oneself. It is too difficult to kick him out of the secret space of 'Ultimate Bliss', and we don't ask you to do so, as long as you don't let him spread his Mahayana Buddhism all over the world."
"The World of Elysium? What a skill." Sun Ran pondered, this kind of power that can open up extra secret spaces in the game, in Taoist terms, is to open up an immortal mansion and create a blessed land of cave heaven, at least to have the cultivation level above the earth immortal.
In Taoist teachings, according to the level of cultivation, they are divided into real people, human immortals, earth immortals, and heavenly immortals. The higher the level, the more mysterious and unknowable.
As long as you are an Earth Immortal, you have at least obtained Level 5 authority, and the highest authority is Level 8. If you reach Level 9, you are a Celestial Immortal.
Naturally, immortals also have strengths and weaknesses, but there are very few battles between immortals. Who is strong and who is weak is not known to outsiders. Even the game company is vague and cannot understand.
As for Sun Ran, a bronze-level orderer, he only has the third-level authority, which is the real-person level. There is a big gap between him and the earthly immortal.
However, the Order is different. They have game companies as their backers. According to Taoism, they have deep blessings and are given orders from heaven. At critical moments, heaven and earth can join forces to kill demons on behalf of heaven.
"Since he is an Earth Immortal, he is indeed difficult to deal with. But since you don't want him to teach Buddhism, then I will stop him." Sun Ran looked very calm.
"Okay, I feel relieved with your words." Wang Sixian smiled and said: "There are a few others who are powerful, but they are all headed by this Buddha and are restrained by him. They are all pretty good and within the tolerance range.
Then there are those monsters occupying the mountains. There is nothing to say about these monsters. If you encounter them, just kick them out as much as you can!"
"Yes. I will." These are all credits, of course he has to play.
"Then you called me for any special mission this time?" Sun Ran asked again.
"Of course there is. As you know, all the forces are ready to fight for hegemony in the world. We have arranged for several people to fight for the world together. Your task is to assist a big VIP named 'Li Shimin' and help him rise to power!"
Sun Ran had a headache: "Is this a long-term mission again?"
"Four hundred thousand credits! You don't need to follow someone named Li all the time. When something big happens, just rush over and help him. Usually we have a special order protector to protect him." Wang Sixian had obviously received guidance from someone, and he clicked on it in one go.
Hit Sun Ran's weakness.
"You are awesome." Sun Ran could not refuse this huge sum of money. He was also very interested in Li Shimin's game fees and asked: "How much did the man named Li pay you."
"Confidential... forget it, I'm just telling you, don't spread it out." Wang Sixian stretched out a finger and lowered his voice: "Eight digits."
Ten million? Rich man!
Sun Ran's eyes widened and he felt unbalanced: "Then I help him sit on the throne of the emperor, and you only give me 400,000?"
"Four hundred thousand is a lot. A founding emperor has many assistants and has to kill many people. These are all played by players, and we will compensate them with certain credits afterwards. There are also brain maintenance fees, various federal taxes,
The employees also have to pay their salaries, and it would be nice to have a profit of two million yuan left in the end. Do you think we are just making a profit?" Wang Sixian poured out his bitter words.
After saying this, Sun Ran felt much more comfortable, and laughed and said: "That's okay. But before entering the game world, I have to repair myself in the real world and prepare for a long-term battle."
"Okay. Three days is enough, right?"
"That's enough. Thanks."
Sun Ran stood up, bowed his hands towards the so-called great scholar, then waved his sleeves and left the virtual world.
This task was very long and he had to discuss it carefully with his team members.
