Chapter 95: Monopoly
In the Monopoly game, there is generally no upper limit, but ordinary players will find it difficult to obtain profits exceeding the maximum value due to factors such as game length, luck and strategy.
Simply put, they are not as smart as they sell.
But now, this game mechanism was designed by Su Shengsheng herself. Who can understand the ins and outs of it better than her?
Therefore, even if her opponents have already leveled up privately, she still has the confidence to fight against them at the same time.
The Monopoly game calculates money based on the acquisition of real estate and farm shops.
The highest value can reach millions of taels.
However, Su Shengsheng's version is the most basic version, so the upper limit is only ten thousand taels.
But this is just an average, not a maximum.
If you want to earn money far beyond the upper limit, you have to adopt certain strategies.
For example, extend the game time, purchase the maximum amount of real estate, implement a monopoly, and thus reap double the rent.
When everyone enters the game, it is like entering a sea of mud again.
Time passed little by little, and as the amount of silver increased like the tide, the faces of the six shopkeepers turned pale.
Qing Ning, who was standing behind Su Shengsheng, felt a chill down her spine when she saw the amount soaring.
It’s not that she doesn’t believe Su Shengsheng, but the young lady’s harvest is getting bigger and bigger.
If their opponent turns the tables, each of them will have to pay at least 10,000 taels!
Shixianglou is now just an empty shell, and that barren mountain is still relying on this shell for its survival. Both sides have no money at all.
Outsiders don’t know, but she keeps accounts every day.
As time went on, Qingning's heart became more and more nervous.
Bao Er could understand it at the beginning, but later in the fight, he just felt that both sides were tied.
But judging from the cold sweat on the faces of the six shopkeepers, it didn't seem like that, and they couldn't help but get nervous too.
The six shopkeepers who were forced to prolong the war had already been filled with huge waves in their hearts.
They couldn't help but wonder if Su Shengsheng had deliberately shown mercy in the last confrontation?
This time, every move she made seemed to contain a mystery. Although the situation seemed evenly matched, it was actually completely under her control.
Mr. Liu Sanye, who was considered the most powerful among them, did not touch the Buddhist beads hanging on his collar in this battle.
Ever since his last crushing defeat at the hands of a woman, he had often played chess with others, but had never been able to break through the ten thousand and two mark.
But now the game has reached 15,000 taels.
The total amount for the six people is 90,000 taels.
Even if Su Shengsheng's business was booming, it would be impossible for her to have such a huge fortune with just three months of hard work.
This made Mr. Liu San, who was still hesitating and wanted to admit defeat early, and Mu Zhi, who had been bitten by Su Shengsheng and refused to let go, both feel competitive.
As long as Su Shengsheng wins this game, there will be no chance for her to recover.
They exchanged a glance with the other four, refusing to be held back any longer and preparing for a desperate counterattack.
This time, even Qing Ning started to sweat.
Such a big card game is something you wouldn’t encounter even in a gambling house. How could she not be scared?
She knew very well how difficult it had been for Su Shengsheng to get to where she was, and was worried that if she failed, there would be no turning back.
It was obvious that everyone around her had a gloomy expression, so she didn't dare to speak rashly and distract the young lady.
When I saw Su Shengsheng again, she looked as usual, and my heart gradually calmed down.
Bao Erze could only judge the situation by observing everyone's expressions.
When he saw that the shopkeepers, who had been so aggressive at first, were now holding their breath like cats, he knew that they had fallen behind.
The three old men who were originally sitting lazily chatting on the side fell silent when they saw that the battle was at a stalemate and the outcome was difficult to determine.
Their only purpose in coming here was to show up and remind her not to kill her completely, but to leave some room for her so that they could meet again in the future.
When she fought one against six people, they initially thought that this young woman was ignorant of her own limitations and was too arrogant.
But now that the situation has changed like this, it is obvious that she is manipulating it, and they can't help but be worried.
The long-awaited treasure card finally appeared, and Su Shengsheng's lips slowly curled up.
A treasure card, worth five thousand taels.
Even if she is unfortunately picked by the other party, the high-quality assets in her hands are enough to make the other party powerless to resist.
Therefore, no matter who gets the treasure card in the end, as long as she is the final winner, Su Shengsheng will be able to take everything.
The six shopkeepers who suddenly realized this were terrified.
Now that the defeat is obvious, no matter whether they can draw the treasure card or not, they will eventually be harvested by the other side.
In other words, the more they earn now, the more money they are giving to the other party.
At the critical moment when the treasure card appeared, Su Shengsheng acted quickly and accurately and began to close the net.
The first shopkeeper to be eliminated had to pay nearly 20,000 taels of silver and was now slumped in his chair.
Seeing that Su Shengsheng was so ruthless, the other shopkeepers swallowed up their opponents' assets and completely completed the harvest.
They were now covered in cold sweat.
Now, all the important assets have fallen into Su Shengsheng's hands. Even if they have a lucky card to exchange one of the assets, it will be of no avail.
To put it another way, even if she loses a game occasionally, she still has income from other games to support her.
This is equivalent to... they are using their own money to attack themselves...
This realization made Mr. Liu San's face turn pale.
They still thought they could join forces to take her down, but they didn't know that they had already stepped step by step into the trap she had set in advance, and now they couldn't even ask for a quick death.
In fact, Su Shengsheng was also silently calculating the probability in his heart.
She has to ensure that the other party cannot turn the tables while keeping the risks within an acceptable range.
At this point in the game, Qing Ning also saw the trick and no longer had to worry about Su Shengsheng losing.
Just like the young lady said, when she fought against them, even when facing multiple people at the same time, she won and lost half of them.
And it was only when they were together that she felt unsure.
So, the question now is not whether to win or lose, but how much you can win.
Even later, several of them changed their strategies at the same time, avoiding Su Shengsheng's relentless pressure while controlling their profits.
They may even actively reduce investment or use ineffective cards to reduce output value in order to accelerate the depreciation of assets.
However, as treasure cards appeared one after another, the shopkeepers, who were already shaken, became even more uneasy.
Two more people were eliminated, and the three elders stood up in shock.
If they are harvested again, each person will have to give 20,000 taels of silver to the other party.
In other words, the game is still fifty-fifty.
"It seems that God favors Shopkeeper Mu more today." Su Shengsheng lost a game, but there was no regret on his face. It was obvious that he treated the missed 20,000 taels indifferently and turned to focus on the remaining two games.
Mu Zhi was extremely lucky and drew two replacement cards in a row, barely avoiding the "sickle" in Su Shengsheng's hand.
Even though he won a game, Mu Zhi knew very well that if he had not drawn two special cards in a row at the end, he would never have been able to defeat Su Shengsheng.
Therefore, when he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, he still looked like he had survived a disaster.
The situation has reached a critical juncture. In the next round, Su Shengsheng drew the treasure card and swallowed up Liu Sanye in one fell swoop.
She was not polite at all to Mr. Liu Sanye.
Just as Mr. Liu Sanye collapsed powerlessly on the chair, watching Su Shengsheng sharpening her knife at the panicked Manager Yu, he suddenly heard chaotic shouting coming from downstairs.
"There's a fire!"
