Chapter 8 A gangster account

Ever since Ming Chong stood up for the treasure-hunting group that day, he has been active in the ruins within Liyue, making the treasure-hunting business bigger and stronger and creating greater glory.

This is all thanks to those adventurers who looked down on the poor and became bandits. Now he has gained happiness, his brothers have gained a backer, and the adventurers have gained the northwest wind.

However, it is worth mentioning that Ming Chong is now increasingly identifying with the identity of the treasure-stealing group, which means that no matter where they are or what happens, they always have to test the waters first.

It feels like I feel uncomfortable if I don’t steal something.

Fortunately, the identity of the Fatui was not among his original options, otherwise he would now be the kind of person that everyone would kick any passing dog.

Ming Chong, who already had some understanding of the continent of Teyvat, was not without emotion.

As the days progressed, Ming Chong felt more and more that his initial attitude towards those adventurers made sense.

Originally, he was worried that his remarks were biased, too idealistic, and that he thought too highly of the treasure-hunting group.

But in his opinion now, it still makes sense.

For example, adventurers say that they need to be assessed, and once they obtain the adventurer's certificate, they can upgrade step by step.

But in fact, the so-called adventurers are just a group of people who are unilaterally certified. They take up their jobs with the certification but receive no training, and there is no adventurer code or supervisory agency.

Even if someone causes damage in the ruins, can they just let it go unnoticed because they are adventurers?

If this were a treasure-hunting group, as soon as they saw the tattered and patched clothes, many people would start to nitpick and criticize their behavior with a magnifying glass.

We're all risking our lives to make money, so who's nobler? Why are adventurers supposed to be pure dreamers, and taking on commissions simply means being helpful?

Ming Chong doesn't think so.

However, he is not going to force the treasure-stealing group to do good deeds. Well... since they belong to the gray area, there must be rules in the gray area.

Young and Dangerous, a kind of villain with great villain charm.

There are good and bad adventurers, and of course there are also treasure-hunting groups.

Most universal rules only restrict good people, so Ming Chong only sets a bottom line for them.

Those who are seeking wealth or who are desperate and want to take a risk can be protected by this;

Those who are greedy and unscrupulous will be able to make money and will not end up as desperadoes;

Those who work hard and retire as soon as they make a fortune will not worry about being constrained.

So the "Crow Seal" naturally came into Ming Chong's sight.

"The Treasure Hunting Crow Seal: A mark that proudly marks the identity of the treasure-hunting group."

"The Silver Crow Seal: The crow emblem used by members of the treasure-stealing group to identify each other."

"Golden Crow Seal: The emblem symbolizing the Treasure Thieves' sole principle and pride."

Ming Chong, who was driving the "Truth", was full of doubts and satisfaction about this - what was the original treasure-stealing group thinking that they had to leave a criminal record for themselves?

Use "tracing back" to mark the first crow seal in the world through the crow seal in your hand;

Then use "100% Borrowing Technique" to change the title effect to a non-shareable and irreversible state;

Then use "Sea Oath" to share the six effects of "Truth", "Qian Kun", "Protection", "Whale Sky", "Gold" and "Purity", each with 1% of power;

The content of "Sea Oath" is——

If they abide by the bottom line set by Ming Chong, then every treasure-stealing group that swears an oath to Yayin and agrees to the contents of the "Oath of the Sea" will be able to obtain his protection and a portion of his power.

——And add a layer of immunity to death buff on Ming Chong.

Of course, only 1% is already very strong, but the important thing is that it does not have the strength of the "Concept God" - stealing the Wind Dragon from the curse is too outrageous!

Even though he didn't quite understand the current worldview, Ming Chong thought that this initial skill tied to the identity of the treasure-stealing group was too buggy.

And in this way, not only does each crow seal become his teleportation anchor point, but the defense buff is also stacked thickly. This is a win-win situation!

Ming Chong: I won twice!

If you take into account the respect and fame he gained in the process, he made a fortune!

Therefore, now that Ming Chong can command almost all treasure-stealing groups, many adventurers will see a strange scene when they try to find out where the treasure-stealing groups are moving.

Anyone who joins the treasure-hunting group will place the treasure-hunting crow seal on their chest and swear an oath in front of other members:

"I, xxx, hereby swear to the great thief Baojia, with my empty hands, to strictly abide by the bottom line of a thief and follow the rules of thieves. I only seek wealth and never kill!

Hide your own identity, do not inquire about the identities of other members, and if you retire for some reason, never leak any industry information.

Even if I withdraw from this group, I will still take care of other members when necessary.

If you disobey, all your wealth will be lost and you will never be able to recover!"

Anyone who reads this will sigh: What a cruel oath.

Violators will trigger the reversal of the six title effects, which is easy to understand.

“Truth” becomes myopia;

"Qian Kun" becomes a wealth leakage and slowdown debuff;

"Blessing" becomes a lightning elemental weakness attack and a deceleration debuff;

"Whale Sky" becomes a water elemental weakness attack, truly becoming a curse of the sea;

"Gold" and "Purity" are even more terrifying. Not only do they have the sickness buff, but they will also have mental attacks from time to time that can counter the whispering effects.

Of course, good kids don’t have to worry about these debuffs, after all, they are not devils.

Isn't the reason we all get together to make money?

If we unify and establish a principle, it will be easier to build trust, and wouldn’t it be more comfortable to make money?

Any questions?

Ming Chong asked himself and answered, no.

As for the great thief Bao Jia Miaoshou Kongshou, who is he?

Ming Chong said, who doesn’t have an alias when traveling around the world?

As stipulated in the "Oath of the Sea", hide your own identity and do not inquire about the identities of others.

As the one who makes the rules, of course he has to abide by them!

Mingchong lay leisurely on the roof of his younger brother's house, looking at the stars, and felt that the situation was very good.

"Boss - the meal is ready!" A slightly plump man who looked to be in his 30s and had a kind face walked into the yard with a smile and waved towards the roof.

There are not many young people in Qingce Village. There are only empty-nest elderly people and left-behind children, so this young man who "returns home in glory" stands out.

"Dad! I also want to play on the roof--" Dongdong's face was full of envy.

"Dongdong, it's time to eat. After you finish eating, Dad will take you upstairs to play."

"good--"

The other kids were chatting away, while some were sitting on the side, loudly teasing the kids. "Dongdong, kids aren't allowed on the roof! It's too dangerous! Your dad is kidding you!"

"Yeah, Dongdong! Just tell me you want to go up and play now, or you won't eat!"

"Hey! You're right! Come on, Dongdong, roll on the ground. There's no table for kids here. Come down after we adults have finished eating!"

Ah Jiang quickly hissed, "What are you talking about! Don't teach my son this, Dongdong will take it seriously!"

Ming Chong casually pulled out a stool, sat on it, picked up the bowl and chopsticks smoothly, and said while eating, "Dongdong, your father is right. Don't listen to what others say. They still have to listen to me!"

"Actually, the stars aren't that big when you go up to the roof. I went up there to show off my status as the boss."

Ming Chong was quite pleased with himself as he chattered about his educational philosophy.

The others either smirked and scratched their heads, or pretended not to hear. As Jiang served food to the quiet Dongdong, he lost himself in memories.

Ever since he heard the rumors about the great thief Bao's family, A Jiang gave up the idea of ​​joining the Southern Cross Fleet to make a living.

At his age, with children, he wants to give his child a better life. But if conditions permit, Jiang also wants to make money in an honest way.

Unfortunately, he has no strengths, and life at sea always makes people feel uneasy and insecure.

So A Jiang joined the current treasure-hunting group.

He is the typical guy who plans to make a quick buck and then stop.

Later on——

He is responsible for arranging rest for other members.

Well... the process is not that important.

In short, he is probably the most capable young man in Qingce Village now, and for a long time to come.
