As soon as the news of the 7th test was confirmed, all kinds of ghosts and monsters jumped out.
Not only are people like Director Wu who cannot be ignored unwilling to be left alone, but some people who are obviously not up to it are also the Eight Immortals who cross the sea to show their magical powers. This period is often the most dangerous. Yu Qingdong knows it deeply, so he is extra careful.
A powerful department, a powerful person, uses all kinds of excuses to intervene. He will not offend if he can, but he really can't shirk it. He will try his best to make things convenient for others without hindering the overall situation and without violating the basic principles.
With him doing this, the top management of Canaan Company will have less pressure to do their job. Therefore, it is impossible to keep secrets.
There is no way for well-informed people to know the trends in advance and then discover the outlet. During this special period, there is no way to take advantage of information asymmetry to wildly extract profits.
It sounds unfair, but how can there be absolute fairness in this world?
"What's going on? Several people asked me today if I still have points for sale?"
Zhu Yuting is doing ‘handicrafts’ with her gaming best friends.
On the flat operating table, the alchemy-made scissors have a sharpness 5 attribute and are made of hard demonized lizard skin. They can be easily cut into complex shapes in her hands, perfectly fitting the drawings.
While she was concentrating on what she was doing, her best friend from the game made an abrupt remark, which made her hands shake and she almost missed the cut.
"Well?"
"Points, national server points"
"You have points? How did you get them?"
"Didn't they say some time ago that the national server was going to be revamped and that tourists could also use points to redeem things in stores? I just collected some, and it was cheap anyway."
"How many?"
"Looks like more than two thousand"
"Ah, 2 gold is a lot, right?"
"Less than 2 gold, haha, the price was the lowest when I bought it, so I got a bargain."
"If someone wants it, just sell it if the price is right. We can't use it anyway."
"Sold, more than 3 gold, early in the morning, hehe."
"...you little elf, have you made a lot of money?"
"Exactly double the profit, hahaha, this is much easier than stock trading and exchange rate speculation."
"You still trade in stocks?"
"Stop talking, old leek."
'Handmade' making is very boring. It takes a whole day just to sit there. If you have someone to talk to with you, time will go by very fast.
This batch of orders was placed by a senior seamstress player. According to the volume, tourists like her only perform preliminary processing of raw materials. The process is relatively simple, but the rewards are very generous, because it is equipment manufacturing.
The things in the game, no matter what they are, as long as they involve equipment manufacturing, they are high-end and high-end. Even the initial processing of raw materials is many times the cost of DIY items without attributes.
The drawing shows shoulder pads, which are part of upper armor components. Since the skin of Warcraft is used, the quality and price are not mid-to-low-end.
These patterns are cut out and sent to senior tailors to be turned into finished products, then alchemy components, and finally drawn by enchanters.
Tailor does not belong to the system life profession, it is a secondary, extended life profession, elementary, intermediate, advanced. As long as the specified difficulty of the work is completed, the system will give certification, and tourists can also "employ".
However, tailors, blacksmiths, and pharmacists who are 'employed' by tourists are not as convenient as players. They do not have the support of system functions. They have to face each other to discuss business, let alone system guarantees that involve a series of transactions and after-sales issues. Therefore,
, has not been eliminated by the impact of tourists.
However, the "employment" of a large number of tourists still affects the profit margins of some professional life and leisure players. Confrontation is inappropriate. The time cost of tourists and the time cost of players are not the same thing. Some professional life and leisure players with flexible minds have adapted in time.
This trend divides the work of the subordinates into different units and outsources them, which not only saves man-hours, but also greatly saves costs, turns the enemy into friendly forces, and reverses the passive and disadvantageous situation in one fell swoop.
Nowadays, this model has become mainstream, and people like Zhu Yuting have also participated in high-end equipment manufacturing.
She also used the capital accumulated from her "entrepreneurship" to create this small handicraft workshop. She recruited a group of tourists like "game girlfriends" and taught them simple techniques and crafts step by step. She transformed into a workshop owner and realized the game.
A jump in value and status.
In the post-6 beta era, this deepening and advanced division of labor has become a common phenomenon. The way of accepting tasks, completing tasks, and receiving rewards has evolved from the lowest level to the division of labor and cooperation derived from various industries, upstream industries, and mid-stream and downstream industries.
It was formed through bumps and bumps.
"I wonder what the 7th test is like, how many players are qualified, and whether everyone can win the lottery... Oh, tell me, if I become a player, what racial profession will I choose?"
"Here we go again, how many times has this happened?"
"Tell me about it, tell me about it"
"Are you done with your work? Hurry up, my boss is urging me."
"...capitalists know how to exploit me."
"Who are you talking about? Who are you talking about? See if I don't scratch you."
"Yeah, I don't dare anymore, please spare my life, capitalist lady"
The two got into a fight and put down their work. After a while of playing, other 'employees' from the handicraft workshop arrived one after another, and the small 'factory' was crowded with people.
"I said boss, you should find a bigger place!"
Said by a male tourist who was doing the 'ironing' process.
Zhu Yuting accompanied her with a smile, "I haven't found a suitable place. If I find it, I will move it. Let's all squeeze in."
The man curled his lips and stopped talking.
A dozen 'workers' were working lazily, chatting and laughing. Zhu Yuting was the most nervous. She would point out who was not good at her job, and she would not dare to say anything serious for fear of being criticized.
This boss was fired.
“Which of you has points, I’ll take them!”
"I have it, how much will it cost?"
"1:1"
"1 bronze, 1 point? Is it so high?"
"I'll take it too, in large quantities."
"What the hell, are you trying to steal business?"
"Why do you all need points? Tourists can't use them?"
"Don't worry about it, sell it to me if you have it."
Points again.
Zhu Yuting really hated this point. She hadn't even finished half of her morning's work, so she was talking about this bullshit point.
——What a group of great men.
After the working hours were over, the house was left in a mess, the wages were not less, and the rest was all her work, which was really tiring.
Everyone was gone, so she worked overtime for another four or five hours by herself to finish all the remaining work. The moment she put down the scissors, she felt so dizzy that she could see double images.
Tourists also have no protection mechanism for players. The system does not care how long the explosion lasts. If there is a problem, it is also the responsibility of the national server, so there is no system prompt to log off in time and take a good rest.
Dragging his tired body, he packed the small mountain of finished products, hired two more NPCs, and sent the large and small packages to the rented carriage from the west of the city to the east of the city, to the senior tailor's shop.
"Why did you send it here?"
The senior tailor players were all waiting impatiently. If there was a private chat channel, they would have urged them countless times. Zhu Yuting endured her dizziness and apologized to others. Suddenly, a strong feeling of nausea arose, her vision went black, and she died.
Line' up.
In reality, before opening my eyes, I fell into a drowsy state.
No one in the family found out.
Since she became a tourist, especially after her online career started to take off, the quality of life at home has improved visibly. Now her parents no longer go out to work, so they collect information for her offline, contact business, and maintain relationships.
What's more, the senior tailor's order just came from her mother who contacted her online. It just so happened that the player's tailor Zhu Yuting also knew her, and she worked for him when the player first went online.
The two hit it off immediately, and Zhu Yuting's workshop had a long-term, fixed upstream channel, so she dared to invest all her wealth in establishing it.
Zhu Yuting's father has registered a company, and if he pays taxes as a corporate entity, the tax rate is lower than that of an individual. This model is encouraged both in the national server and offline.
Offline companies and online operations also provide many jobs offline. Online operations feed back offline operations, forming a positive interaction and the integration becomes deeper and deeper.
It wasn't until night that the mother discovered that her daughter had gone offline. She even called her several times but didn't wake her up. She became anxious.
It would be better if nothing happens.
Zhu Yuting's father came in, felt his daughter's pulse and body temperature, and said it was fine. She was tired.
As a mother who feels sorry for her daughter, she feels that this situation cannot go on and she has to lie still every day to prevent her body from being damaged.
Zhu Yuting's father disagreed, saying that this kind of thing is too common, and he has never seen that person collapse due to being online for a long time. He told Zhu's mother not to worry, Canaan is a black technology, if you stay online for a long time, just take a nap.
Just fine.
Zhu Yuting woke up at this moment. She had no time to care about her parents' quarrels. She went online as soon as she woke up, for fear that there would be something wrong with the batch of goods.
"Why, I just said a few words to you and you were offline. Who are you showing off to?" The senior tailor player was still waiting for her. Naturally, she was very angry and spoke in a very aggressive tone.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm too tired to rush this batch of goods." Zhu Yuting naturally kept apologizing.
"Don't you employ a lot of people?"
"Those uncles... I won't talk about it anymore, you should all know it."
The senior tailor was amused, "How about it? Do you understand how I felt at that time?"
"I understand, boss, it's really not easy for you."
"If you ask me, there are not too many tourists now, but too few. They are used to it, and each of them is more aggressive than the uncle. If you let 100 million people come in and take a look, I guarantee that they will cry and want to be fucked by you.
"
This senior tailor player has a lot of resentment, but now he has outsourced this trouble and it has become a trouble for people like Zhu Yuting.
Looking at Zhu Yuting's distress at this time, sympathy is fake and gloating about her misfortune is real.
This man kept his word, and the goods were still there untouched. Zhu Yuting breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this. If it had been someone else in this situation, she might have been cheated.
"Don't worry, I didn't touch anything and I won't take advantage of you."
This is not a small bargain, it is worth more than ten gold.
Zhu Yuting was very moved, so after checking that all the goods were fine, she took the initiative to reduce the unit price by 10%.
"No need to lower the price, just follow what we discussed. I won't let you down!" Unexpectedly, this senior tailor player didn't appreciate it. "From now on, just complete the order on time and ensure quality. Don't make these false claims."
Brainless."
"Thank you, thank you."
"Isn't this an easy order?"
"It's a waste of time."
"Haha, that's how it all came about... What channel does the payment go through?"
The so-called channel refers to the method of settlement, which is generally divided into two types. One is person-to-person. The other party can directly trade the money to her personally. However, the national server will charge a 10% handling fee. If the exchange
RMB, there is also a 20% personal income tax, and there is a 20% self-employed business tax (players and tourists are regarded as self-employed businesses) above a certain amount, and the total tax rate is as high as 50%.
One is entity-to-entity. At this time, the registered company comes into play. Everyone trades public accounts, saving 10% of the handling fee and 20% of the personal income tax. Only 20% of the business tax and online and offline miscellaneous things are needed.
The tax types are only for remittance online and offline, and the total does not exceed 30%.
If certain conditions are met, such as how many people have been hired, how many jobs have been created (both online and offline are counted), investments made by corporate entities (both online and offline are counted), etc., you can also enjoy certain tax rebates
Proportion.
Under the vigorous promotion and guidance of the national server, people like Zhu Yuting who have a small industry and wealth in the game have almost all registered corporate entities. Online and offline economic activities have benefited from this, and the integration has become increasingly closer and flesh-and-blood.
The trend of connection has thus brought about a booming economy of the metaverse.
"Let's take the company's account"
"Okay, let's go to the bank."
The senior tailor had his own 'private car'. The two rushed to the bank branch near the city lord's palace and found a large group of people watching.
"What's going on? Is this going to close?"
"Said to be preparing for revision"
"ah?"
"What do you mean, revision? 7 tests?"
"What does this have to do with the bank?"
"Maybe it will be changed into a bank in the future?"
"Isn't it unnecessary to take off your pants and fart?"
Zhu Yuting was so anxious when she saw that the bank was being 'demolished' that she quickly took advantage of the last window to rush in with a senior tailor, and completed the account exchange procedures before the deadline.
"How come the bank is closed? It's really strange."
“Not only banks, but also service centers, job markets, tax bureaus, and public security agencies are all delisting.”
"Why?"
"This game isn't going to be pornographic, is it?"
"It's impossible. Even if the earth explodes, it won't be possible."
"What's going on?"
"It can only be the 7th test. It seems that there will be a major adjustment, just like when the 6th test started."
"Toss, toss hard!"
After leaving the bank, there were still a lot of discussions outside. Seeing Zhu Yuting's worried look, the senior tailor player laughed and said, "Every time at this time, ghosts and monsters appear, please keep her calm and don't let anyone lead you in"
In the pit.
Zhu Yuting took the opportunity to ask him about the points in the national server.
The senior tailor player said disdainfully that someone was trying to cut leeks again, so Zhu Yuting must not be fooled. No matter how deceived the outside world is, cash is king, so just keep your money bag tight.
