Chapter 8 Upgrading the Through Train

Chapter 8 Upgrade Express

Author: Shengxiao Swordsman

Chapter 8 Upgrade Express

Apart from the architectural drawings of the stone city wall, Tang Jing could not find any suitable rare props.

This is normal.

But Tang Jing was anxious. He knew very well that even though the level 1 crystal core was being praised to the sky now, as the refugees gradually became more trained, the price would definitely be higher every day.

As long as the refugees are organized properly, it is not difficult to kill elite monsters.

Tang Jing wanted to maximize the value of the level 1 crystal core in his hand, so naturally the sooner he took action, the better.

It won't be worth anything anymore.

Since bartering doesn't work, we have to think of other ways.

Tang Jing soon turned his attention to "crowdfunding".

Speaking of crowdfunding, the news that he earned the price difference yesterday has spread throughout Zunlong Country.

Today, smart celebrities, entrepreneurs and other celebrities have begun to imitate the same and have launched similar lottery activities, attracting a large number of lords to participate.

Especially fans of celebrities enjoy it even more, saying "Brother is so warm".

Affected by this, Tang Jing, the initiator of the "crowdfunding", seems to be less popular. There are even many brother fans who openly slander Tang Jing on national channels for taking too much commission and that he is a pure profiteer.

They completely forgot that they were still enjoying the blessing of the national war from Tang Jingbo.

Tang Jing naturally had no time to argue with these outliers, but he had to admit that if he wanted to maintain the operation of "crowdfunding", he had to come up with some new tricks.

It is best to be able to form a unique competitiveness that others cannot imitate even if they want to.

Thinking of this, Tang Jing immediately posted on WeChat Moments——

"Recruit 10 friends for a lottery, ticket: 1 refugee, prize: 500 units of wood + 500 units of stone + 1 level 1 crystal core. Get on the bus as soon as possible, first come, first served, until full!"

Didn’t some people question the lack of transparency in the previous crowdfunding lottery?

That’s good!

Tang Jing simply did the opposite, stipulating the number of participants and the lottery threshold, and then threw out a prize that no one could refuse.

"Boss Tang Jing is so powerful, I sign up!"

"Boss Tang, take me with you, sign up +1!"

"Boss, choose me!!!"

"Brother, you are my real brother, leave a place for me!"

Not surprisingly, as soon as the circle of friends was sent out, Tang Jing received a large number of replies. He acted quickly and even sent refugees to Tang Jing as soon as possible.

I don’t blame my friends for being too enthusiastic, I just blame the prizes for being too tempting.

The probability of winning is as high as one in ten. Once you win, it is equivalent to getting a ticket to a third-level shelter at the cost of a refugee.

Anyone who is a little bit ambitious knows how to choose.

As long as the shelter can be upgraded in time, what does a mere refugee mean?

How many lords have lost several refugees and still gained nothing.

Faced with everyone's enthusiasm, Tang Jing was also very practical. He quickly selected the top ten lords who sent the refugees. After receiving the refugees, he pulled the ten people into a temporary chat group.

No nonsense, just draw the lottery.

"I, I, I hit!!!"

The lucky one was a lord named Lu Ming, who was so excited that he couldn't speak clearly.

"Boss Tang, are there any crystal cores left? Let's smoke again!"

The lords who didn't win were jealous and wanted to try again.

"Sorry, it's time to change to the next batch."

If Tang Jing doesn't want to dry up the lake and fish, he can just use a group of lords to gather wool and get the rain and dew on it, right?

After three draws in a row, a total of thirty refugees were obtained.

There were 5 level 1 crystal cores, 1 was used in exchange for the stone city wall blueprint, 3 were drawn in a lottery, and the last one was left. Tang Jing did not draw any more, but held it in his hand.

I want to observe the market's reaction before making a decision.

As expected.

The lottery event launched by Tang Jing in the circle of friends immediately spread throughout the entire Zunlong Kingdom. Some people were envious of the lucky winner, while others were envious of Tang Jing's ease in harvesting the refugees.

Can one not be envied by exchanging one level 1 crystal core for ten refugees?

But what's the use of being envious.

At least for now, few in the entire Zunlong Kingdom have the strength to play such a game.

I haven’t even found any crystal nuclei yet!

Another impact of this incident was that it attracted a large number of lords who wanted to become Tang Jing's friends in order to be eligible to participate in similar draws.

These people also understand Tang Jing's rules very well, and they applied for gifts with friends, as well as basic supplies.

Although it's not much, it's still my intention.

Obviously, the materials sent this time will never be taken away in a lottery.

It's a gift given willingly.

Tang Jing, as the largest Neptune in Blue Star, of course came from Buxie. Before he did anything, he easily received a total of more than 200,000 units of wood and more than 100,000 units of stone.

This is the spillover effect brought about by exclusive competitiveness.

Of course, Tang Jing can't be too proud.

If you want to maintain "brand influence", it is not enough to rely on level 1 crystal cores. You must also find ways to continuously introduce more "unique prizes" in the future.

Otherwise, sooner or later it will be surpassed.

And Tang Jing also knows how to manage a circle of friends. After adding more than 300,000 friends, he immediately released a new circle of friends——

"Recruit 300,000 friends for a lottery, ticket: 1 unit of stone, prize: 500 units of wood + 500 units of stone + 1 level 1 crystal core. Get on the bus as soon as possible, first come, first served, until full!"

The last level 1 crystal core, won’t it come in handy?

Tang Jing is also very scheming.

Using refugees as ticket draws is a form of "using a small amount to make a big difference", which naturally increases the probability of winning. And using 1 unit of stone is a typical "using a small amount to make a big difference", and it is normal for the probability of winning to be low.

There's nothing to lose if you don't win.

If you win, you win the lottery!

Obviously everyone thought so too. In less than half an hour, Tang Jing had raised 300,000 units of stone and successfully started another "through-train ticket" lottery.

Thanks to the powerful "filtering" function of the social software that comes with the system, otherwise I would be really busy.

Easily, 300,000 units of stone were obtained.

This lottery is not only to appease the circle of friends and show competitiveness, but also because after getting the construction drawings of the stone city wall, the next step is to plan and build the stone city wall.

When the time comes, a large amount of stone will be needed, so it’s time to reserve supplies in advance.

Tang Jing's ambitions were very high. He planned to wait until the morning after tomorrow when the territory was promoted to a third-level shelter and the territory expanded again before he could start building the stone city wall.

Directly define the scope of the first city wall as 1 kilometer * 1 kilometer.

After finishing the lottery, Tang Jing had time to look at the thirty refugees he had received. They were quite interesting, and all of them were young and strong men.

Without further ado, all of them were converted into sword and shield soldiers.

Costs 150 gold coins.

With this group of sword and shield soldiers, the territorial military strength will reach a new level.

………

About five o'clock in the afternoon.

Tu Hong and his party successfully returned to their territory with the last batch of loot.

"Sir, what should I do with these captured battle axes and armor?"

There are currently no internal affairs talents in the territory, and Tu Hong is in charge of everything big and small.

"Didn't you find a dwarf in the gnoll camp? Are you awake? Let's see if he can recycle these tattered armors and make iron armor for you."

Although the armor worn by the Jackal is tattered, it is still genuine iron armor.

"Wake up, you came back with us this time."

Tu Hong understood and immediately called the dwarf over.

"Dwarf Olin, I have met the lord and thank the lord for rescuing him." After waking up, Olin was able to walk on his own with his strong physical fitness.

"Easy to say."

Tang Jing nodded, did not beat around the bush, and asked for the armor to be recast.

"I'm sorry, Lord, I don't know about forging." Orin shook his head.

"Dwarves don't know how to forge?" Tang Jing was immediately confused.

"I'm afraid your lord may have some misunderstanding about our dwarf clan. Not all dwarves know how to forge. I am a dwarf who specializes in fighting and a ranger who travels out."

Speaking of this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Orin's face.

It was true that he was traveling, but not long after he left the tribe, he was plotted against by the jackals and captured.

But it would be too embarrassing for the dwarves.

"Even if I know about forging, with all due respect, your territory doesn't even have a decent forging furnace, so it's impossible to complete such a complex process as forging armor." Orin reminded.

"That's true."

Tang Jing had forgotten this incident.

Seeing this, Orin took advantage of the situation and said: "In order to thank the Lord for your rescue, I can write a letter to the tribe and ask the tribe to arrange for tribesmen to help the territory build a blacksmith shop and recast armor."

Dwarves must repay kindness!

"That would be great!"

Tang Jing was overjoyed. He could gain the friendship of the dwarves and would definitely make a lot of money.
