[Fourth Wall Break/Fourth Catastrophe + No CP Ensemble Cast] On the gaming forums, a group of veteran netizens, eagerly rubbing their fists, angrily denounced "Records of the Ten Continents,...
Chapter 507 Wang Ergou's Suggestions
Friends and relatives stared at [Handsome Boy] with dead fish eyes and complained: "You went to school to study ideological and moral education without telling me?"
"Well, I mean if I do something, I'll do something big!"
[Handsome Guy] coughed lightly and said with great enthusiasm: "Let's just build a university town!"
Relatives and friends rolled their eyes and said, "Excuse me, handsome boy. Don't take yourself too seriously when I call you handsome boy. You borrowed a lot of money from me to get the asset certification to redeem your qualification to become an apprentice. How can you afford to build a university town now?"
"Ahem... well..." [Handsome] scratched his head awkwardly, then looked at his relatives and friends expectantly, smiling flatteringly: "Although I'm a poor guy, you're a rich woman! Tangyuan, the great Tangyuan! Look at this industry with such a good prospect, it will definitely make money!"
"Hey! Stop it!"
[Handsome]'s relatives and friends ID is [Tangyuanbiejiatang]. In reality, his family opened a chain of interest training institutions in a small city. Tangyuan herself took over part of the family business after graduating from university, but she mostly ran errands. She can't be said to be rich, but her family background is still relatively solid. Therefore, she never blinks an eye when spending money in the game. She is also a famous "rich woman" in the small group of relatives and friends including [Handsome].
Strictly speaking, the house in Chang'an City that [Liangzai] owned was bought by [Tangyuanbiejiatang], because [Liangzai] originally sold the house that he had been allocated as an old internal test player and "angel investor" of Chang'an Sheyi at a high price in order to bid for equipment. The buyer was [Tangyuanbiejiatang] who was qualified later.
After all, [Liangzai] is an old player and can talk to several well-known game bosses and high-level players such as Wang Ergou. So in order to level up quickly, [Tangyuanbiejiatang] became [Liangzai's] regular boss. He has participated in group games organized by [Liangzai] and Wang Ergou several times, and gradually, everyone became relatives and friends.
However, since the first house that [Handsome] built was really shabby, in the words of [Tangyuanbiejiatang], "I play games, why do I live in such a poor place in the game?", the rich woman Tangyuan bought a larger piece of land. Although it was a bit far from the teleportation array, she personally supervised it and built a very beautiful manor, which she named "Sweet Tangyuan Villa".
For this reason, [Liangzai] and other relatives and friends specifically complained: "It would be better if you just changed your name to Sanquan or Si Nian, maybe you can even collect some advertising fees!"
The old house was given to relatives and friends as a collective place to go online and offline. There are many rooms and anyone can use it. After all, it is close to the teleportation array and more convenient.
However, in order to exchange for the qualification to accept disciples, [Handsome Boy] shamelessly borrowed the money and changed the ownership of the house and land to his ID. Only then did he meet the minimum personal asset certification required to exchange for the qualification to accept disciples.
Of course, the Sweet Tangyuan Villa was too large to be completed in a short time, so [Don't add sugar to Tangyuan] still lives here recently. However, she is not very interested in pets and apprentices, but is obsessed with construction, decoration and layout. She often goes to the construction site of the Sweet Tangyuan Villa as soon as she goes online, and sometimes rolls up her sleeves to move bricks by herself, and she is so absorbed in moving bricks that her relatives and friends are very confused.
No matter what, as a well-known rich woman in the small group of relatives and friends, [Handsome] of course placed his first hope on Tangyuan.
"Well... it's not impossible," Tang Yuan thought about it unexpectedly, but it made sense. "But I have to ask someone to evaluate the input and output. If we simply build a university town in the form of a community and recruit teachers, then the tuition for students is worth discussing. But the problem is that if we pursue equality and accept both demon cultivators and humans, it's okay for humans, but where will the demon cultivators get the money to pay the tuition?"
As he spoke, Tang Yuan pointed at Lu Weilou who was dozing on the ground beside him, and said helplessly: "You don't expect Lu Weilou to be able to pay for his tuition by himself, do you?"
Tang Yuan's words made [Handsome] immediately deflated.
Indeed, a "monster" like Lu Weiluo who grew up 100% freely in the wild could not possibly afford the tuition. Even if he could hunt every day to earn money, there would always be races that were not good at hunting. What should he do?
But if there is no charge at all, wouldn't that be charity? Not to mention that [Handsome] doesn't have the leisure to do charity in the game, even Tangyuan can't spend his own money on such a pure waste of money!
"How about...fundraising?"
[Handsome guy] asked tentatively.
Tang Yuan rolled his eyes: "According to the scale you envision, how much donations will be needed? Moreover, education is a long-term investment. Can you guarantee that you can always raise funds to maintain the school's expenses?"
[Handsome] didn't give up. He paced back and forth. Then, an idea came to him and he suggested, "How about live streaming? A long-running variety show like "The Story of the Demon Cultivation Academy"?"
Tang Yuan still rejected [Handsome]'s proposal: "Can you guarantee that it will be popular? And once it is linked to this kind of commercial behavior, the school may not be a school anymore!"
"Oh! What shall I do?"
[Handsome Boy] This time he was really at a loss and just started wailing.
Just when I was feeling depressed, a private message suddenly popped up in the private chat, and it was from Wang Ergou——
"Are you there, pretty boy?"
"Yes, yes, yes! Brother Gou, you say!"
"The group will start in Chang'an at 8pm, [Endless Return to the Ruins], shall we leave a pit for you?"
"Stay, stay, stay! I need you to work to support my Lu Weilou!"
"Okay! Then I'll help you fill out the registration form!"
"Thank you, Brother Dog!"
"It's just a small matter!"
The private chat ended quickly after a few words. It was just an ordinary invitation to play a game, but for some reason, [Handsome] couldn't help but send a private message -
"Brother Gou, tell me, if I want to run a school that recruits demon cultivators and ghost cultivators, a comprehensive school that starts with elementary education, or even a university town, is there any way to get the money? After all, it seems that the real demon cultivators in this game don't have the money to pay tuition!"
As soon as the private message was sent, [Handsome] felt a little regretful. In fact, he was not very familiar with Wang Ergou. He was just a skilled worker who was often invited by Wang Ergou.
But the message had already been sent and there was no way to withdraw it, so he could only add another sentence to cover up his "crossing the line": "Ahaha, don't mind me, brother Gou, I just thought about it casually, I feel that this game doesn't have that much freedom hahaha..."
Wang Ergou's pupils were dizzy with confusion as to why he hadn't thought of this. He was considering his words but before he could reply, he saw the next private message. Fearing that the other party would give up, he quickly replied, "No! I think there is! I think there really is such a high degree of freedom! I strongly suggest you try it! It will work!"
Then, he pointed out a clear way for [Handsome]: "I suggest you ask the sect NPC for their opinions directly. Anyway, most of the construction in my Chang'an City was implemented by asking the senior sister and Elder Lu Ying, including Zhongzhou University. Although it is now directly under the Taiyin Sect, at least it was originally in our Chang'an community! Look at how much dividends our Chang'an has gained! I think your idea is awesome! The plot has just progressed to exchanges with Du Guangguo recently. If you come up with an idea, it will definitely work!"
[Handsome guy] I didn’t expect that Wang Ergou, a well-known anchor and high-level player, would support my idea. I immediately asked excitedly: “Is it really reliable?”
Wang Ergou replied decisively: "Very reliable!"
