The blind box opening event in the 55th Novice Village, now known as "You'ran Village", is just the beginning.
Players who have just entered the game have always maintained great enthusiasm for the game, and this enthusiasm is reflected in farming and completing tasks. As long as the number of lazy people in a village is within an acceptable range, these two days are almost the time when the first option of the task "Village Chief's Residence" will be completed.
Sure enough, after "You Ran Village", other villages came in with good news. Some of these villages successfully completed the process of changing their names, receiving gifts, and opening blind boxes live, but a few of them were stuck at the stage of changing their names.
These players with the highest contribution who wanted to change the name but received the prompt "The village name is already in use" took their frustration and anger to the game forum.
"I named it 'Peach Blossom Village', but the name was already taken, so I changed it to 'Apricot Blossom Village', which was still taken, and then changed it to 'Pear Blossom Village', but it was still taken. There is also a 'Chrysanthemum Village'... After thinking about it, I decided to forget it, it's unnecessary. So, my family, what else can I name the village QAQ!"
"I really envy the big brother above (I read your basic information before replying) for being able to come up with so many fancy names. I'm different. I named 'Taoyuan Village', 'Food Village', 'Miaomiao Village', and 'Star Agricultural Demonstration Village'. These are not from the same series, but they were all used. Finally, I had no choice but to name it 'Ganfan Village', and I was almost beaten up by the whole village. Wow, these guys don't even look at the way they usually eat, aren't they just working hard to eat!"
"I envy the people above for having simple and memorable names to choose from... I'm still bald, so I'd rather name my planet after food like we do, but it feels a bit awkward. But all the names I thought of before have been taken away by others, so now I'm at a loss, oh~~"
At this time, a forum user used a "Luoyang shovel" to shovel up a post from more than half a month ago, and came to notify those crying first place: Stop crying, I have shoveled up the post where the big guy "What are you working on" once asked for the village name in the forum, you should hurry up and copy the answer, the early bird catches the worm!
Many people then remembered that this big shot had indeed posted such a post, and many netizens had enthusiastically given suggestions at the time. There were thousands of replies. Excluding repeated and completely unusable names, there must be at least one or two hundred village names that could be used, right?
The players who had come to the forum to complain were relieved. Now the name of their village was saved. They quickly wiped their tears and ran to choose a concubine... Oh no, they chose a name.
Among them, there were several catchy names, which caused a fight among several people. However, in the end, someone took the names and secretly went online to change the village name while they were quarreling, which caused a lot of cursing.
Now, players who are eligible to change their names have a more painful experience. If you find a name you like, don't hesitate for a moment, just go for it! Maybe if you are a second late, the name will be taken away by someone else!
Whenever a player successfully changes the village name using a name given by a netizen in a post, they will leave a thank you note on that floor, like performing some kind of pious ritual. On the one hand, they are really thanking the floor owner for saving their bald head, and on the other hand, they are also leaving a mark to let later comers know that the name has been taken and you don't have to think about it anymore.
Later, another player left a reward of forum coins to the owner of the selected floor.
Forum coins can not only be exchanged for various goods and game peripherals officially provided by the forum owner, the "Holographic Game Design Competition", but can also be directly withdrawn after paying a part of the handling fee, which is not much different from normal currency.
Someone started the tip, and other players in the same village followed suit. Although the individual donations may not seem much, the combined amount can bring in hundreds or thousands of dollars. After that, players from other villages also learned this method, which not only allows them to express their gratitude to the enthusiastic netizens who provided the name of their village, but also helps promote their village to some extent.
Later, more and more netizens left their village names in this post, thinking that they might make some money while helping out. And this post was also called the most valuable post in the game forum a few years later.
Of course, this is a later story, so let’s not talk about it for now.
After a period of chaos, all the villages that completed the task and met the requirements were officially renamed and could proceed to the next step.
Many players in the forum were eating melons and gloating, making fun of these players for being in a panic, which was not in line with the leisurely and free spirit of the game at all, and did not have the demeanor of a gaming boss at all.
These teasing words were seen by XX Village No.1 who had not yet completely quit the forum. He sneered and left his own prediction: "Ha, we are lucky to have so many names to choose from. When the three styles of houses are completed, I think you can still find a few good names. Be careful not to be too picky~"
Oh my god, this is simply a forum horror story!
At the same time, no matter whether it was those who had made jokes earlier or those who were watching the fun silently, they were all frightened and shuddered all over. By the time they reacted, they were already patting their chests to calm their pounding hearts.
Yes, why are they gloating? They already have a formal village name, and they haven't even completed the task. The pressure of choosing the first few is relatively small, and those players who chose the most difficult palace-style residences have already put on the mask of pain.
Ahhh! They didn't expect that while frantically collecting mission materials, they would have to help pay attention to the village name. Otherwise, when the mission is completed, they won't be able to come up with a nice and memorable village name. That would be too miserable.
XX Village NO.1 finally felt satisfied after seeing the players' reactions, and walked away from the game forum with a proud and unyielding attitude.
On the other side, Zhu Moling re-entered the game and listened to the daily reports from Fox One and Fox Two.
"Hmm? The child from our side branch is actually the apprentice of the man who adopted me. We do have some connection..." Zhu Moling learned from Hu that Song Xinran was coming to visit Bai Li's house, and he became interested in his identity.
"Yes, he came with the elders of our family to a family dinner a few years ago. Fox Two and I recognized him, and in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, we directly revealed our identities to him. The child looked honest and promised us that he would not say anything that shouldn't be said, so we should be able to trust him." Fox One said.
"Well, that's good." Zhu Moling nodded and stopped talking about the game. "By the way, how are you collecting materials? If you have any extra, remember to give them to me. I went to the village chief to check, and there are still dozens of players ahead of me. The three of us still have to keep working hard. I just checked the game forum and found that the names of the villages cannot be repeated. Many suitable village names have been taken. I don't know how many good names will be left when it's our turn."
"Don't worry, Chief. Fox One and I will go collect materials soon and guarantee that you will become the top contributor before the task is completed. As for the name of the village, based on the progress of our village, we still have a long way to go. There is no rush and we can think about it slowly." Fox Two said.
Zhu Moling was very satisfied with the positive attitude of his two subordinates, and said considerately: "In addition to you two, I will also work hard to collect materials. By the way, you have all received the money I transferred to you before. The money is not much, and it will be used up in a few days. When you have used it up, remember to tell me and I will transfer you another sum. Even if it is, you can accompany me in the game activity funds."
After hearing what Zhu Moling said, Fox One and Fox Two's expressions were blank for a moment, and they had the same thought in their minds: In the mind of the clan leader, is 500,000 star dollars only considered "not much"? And has the clan leader forgotten that as his subordinates and bodyguards, they already receive a very high salary?
Before, I said that spending money on orders was considered light, but this is clearly spending money under duress!
Ah, this sweet and painful trouble.
"Thank you, Chief. We still have enough money!" Fox One and Fox Two said in unison.
Zhu Moling was very satisfied. He waved his hand to disband the team and told the two to do what they were supposed to do.
Fox One and Fox Two left Zhu Mo Ling's house with strange expressions. After walking a distance and making sure that Zhu Mo Ling couldn't hear their conversation, Fox Two asked softly, "Fox One, how much of the money the clan leader gave you did you spend?"
Fox raised his head and looked up at the sky. "I only bought 100 clothing surprise boxes at once when I first got the money, and then I spent it sporadically. Now I still have more than 400,000 yuan. I estimate that I can spend this money for several months."
After hearing what Fox One said, Fox Two showed the same confused expression: "I'm about the same as you. I didn't spend too much. I only bought daily necessities in the game mall, such as furniture, fertilizers, and spring water. The clan leader gave me too much, and I can't spend it all!"
But their clan leader said that the money could be spent in a few days. Are they really playing the same game?
"Oh, forget it. Everyone plays games differently. Let's just spend money at our own pace. It will also save the tribe leader some trouble." Fox made the decision.
As for how Zhu Moling spent his money, they had no right to comment. After all, the clan leader had money, so he could afford it!
Fox Two nodded his head, and when they were about to part at a fork in the road, he asked another question: "By the way, Fox One, after we finish the 'Village Chief's Residence' mission, what name will our village chief give this village?"
After pondering the question for a while, he confidently guessed, "It should be called either 'Sky Fox Village' or 'Fox Village'. You know that our clan leader has no talent for naming. Just look at our name and you'll know."
As long as the two names are not repeated, there is a 99% chance that it will be one of them.
Fox Two thought of the names of the two brothers and nodded heavily in agreement.
