No. 19
On the way north, Fu Tian encountered several waves of pursuit and blockade. Some were single combat, and some were bullying by the majority, but fortunately, nothing serious happened.
The strength of the players who come to chase varies.
Those with weak abilities learned their lesson after being ripped off by Fu Tian a few times. Those with strong abilities also learned their lesson after being ripped off by Fu Tian a few times.
The former was because the bones were too hard to chew, while the latter was because a lot of good stuff was revealed, and it was too painful to bear, so they gave up.
As for the cooperation that Captain Li mentioned earlier, Fu Tian replied.
When she had enough grain, she could share half of it with the other party for trading, and Tang Ji would act as the agent between the two.
Now that the deal was done and there were no more people constantly sending him equipment, Fu Tian felt relaxed and comfortable.
I picked out the useful equipment and put them on, and threw the rest into the auction house.
The auction house is included with the game store and is the only one for players to trade and auction.
At first, it wasn't like no one wanted to sell to NPCs or to blacksmiths, but players found that equipment of white quality or higher couldn't be sold.
Either the store refuses to accept it, or no one is interested in it.
Later, someone finally conducted a special investigation and discovered that the vast majority of NPCs could not wear equipment of white quality or higher. Only a very small number of NPCs with inherited talents could do so.
Therefore, the concept of "inheritance" has finally received attention from players.
Equipment is only circulated between players. The auction house can help players get more profits, because selling directly to the mall is too unprofitable.
Fu Tian sold a bunch of equipment and got a lot of copper coins. Adding it to the money she got from the previous transaction with Tang Ji, it was more than enough to buy a house with a courtyard. Not to mention, she could find a deserted mountain in the suburbs.
Thinking that the weather would eventually get hot, she wanted to find a summer resort where it was spring all year round.
After downloading a map from Starnet, Fu Tian looked at the annotations on it and finally chose Licheng.
The only way to travel was by water, as this game didn't have any flying beasts, or cars or airplanes. All you had were horse-drawn carriages, ox-drawn carts, or boats.
Driving a horse-drawn or ox-drawn cart requires taking the winding official road, which is far less fast than taking the water route.
After choosing the mode of transportation, Fu Tian started the boat and headed for Licheng.
I had nothing to do along the way so I didn't start thinking about malt sugar.
The method of making malt sugar is very simple, and the raw materials malt and glutinous rice are also readily available.
After crushing the malt, add the cooked glutinous rice, mix the two together, cover with gauze and wait for it to saccharify. When it is almost done, you can filter out the residue and keep the juice.
Then simmer it over low heat until it becomes thick and serve.
The deep golden syrup was poured into a green bowl. Fu Tian called over Xiao Yuyu who was playing nearby, and they each took a chopstick and began to stir the syrup and eat it.
The slightly sticky maltose was so delicious that the sweetness penetrated my heart. It was delicious and could be stretched into strings. The two of them, who were not very knowledgeable, narrowed their eyes in delight.
This is what Tang Ji saw when he came over.
The blue waves are rippling, the boat is floating slowly, and the girls and children are eating golden malt sugar, a scene of innocence and beauty.
"Why are you here?" Fu Tian was a little surprised to see Tang Ji.
She remembered that they had received several spring seeds, so didn't they need to make some arrangements?
Tang Ji guessed what was going on and smiled, "Someone down there will make the arrangements."
Yes, there are many people.
Fu Tian expressed her envy.
"As for you, where do you plan to set up your place?" Tang Ji took the malt sugar handed to him and changed the subject.
Fu Tian didn't hide it and directly reported the place name, "Licheng."
Hearing this, Tang Ji nodded.
Licheng was indeed a great place. With mountains and rivers, its water conservancy and transportation were extremely well developed, making trade even more convenient. Not to mention the large expanse of land available for planting and breeding, so there was no need to worry about supplies.
After roughly understanding Fu Tian's plan and getting some malt sugar, Tang Ji left. It can be said that he came and left in a hurry.
So, what exactly is the other party here for?
She seriously suspected that the other party was just trying to get some candy.
After complaining secretly, Fu Tian packed up his things and quickly sailed towards Licheng.
Licheng is located north of Yumi Town. The maps currently used by players are all professional versions provided by the Star Network community. These maps are drawn using materials contributed by a large number of players, have an extremely low error rate, and are updated in real time.
The reason why Fu Tian chose Licheng was, on the one hand, because of Licheng's geographical advantage, and on the other hand, because there was a route from Licheng that sailed specifically northward, passing through the city where Yu Jiao was.
Thanks to this map, she realized that she and Jiaojiao were so far apart.
No wonder the postage was so expensive.
Knowing that the other party was doing well in his city, Fu Tian felt at ease to develop his career.
After five days of sailing, Fu Tian finally saw the sign that said Licheng.
[System: Congratulations to the player for arriving in Licheng.]
As the closest big city to Yumi Town, Licheng's prosperity is far beyond the reach of a small town.
The roads are paved with bluestone slabs and the streets are planned to form nine areas, each of which performs its own functions.
In addition, big cities have the advantages of big cities - there are more players.
Although the game does not have gangs, guilds and other functions, players have found places on their own and set up offices.
In fact, it is equivalent to a guild, the only difference is the size of the storefront. But just the storefront can tell whether the office is prosperous and how many employees it has.
From a distance, the big offices and the small offices stand out.
The entrance to the large office was crowded with people, and the players guarding it were also very arrogant. The small office had people stationed at the entrance to pick up people, and they would catch anyone who came.
Fu Tian looked around from a distance, chose an office that he liked, and walked in.
The entrance looked spacious from the outside, but it was even more impressive once you stepped inside. It was completely modeled after a guild hall, with an information desk, quest hall, and hiring room.
In line with the good habit of asking questions when one does not understand something, Fu Tian took the lead in walking to the consultation desk.
Thanks to the enthusiastic service of the lady at the information desk, I got a general understanding of the situation in Licheng.
Legions, noble families, and large-scale groups have settled in Vitality, and guilds of all sizes have emerged. Basically, branches have been set up in every major city.
Unlike Fu Tian, who earned money alone, joining the guild required paying dues. The guild then assigned tasks, organized groups to fight monsters, established a points and honors board, and collected tons of copper coins. Branches were then established one after another.
Because they had only been in operation for a short time, these branches only operated for a few days, during which time many small guilds were absorbed. Most of those that still existed were those with capital.
The mission hall is where guild players take on missions and earn points.
The difficulty level and reward of the task will be clearly stated above.
This is mainly to facilitate players to accept tasks according to their own situation. It is also a proof of the strength of the guild.
It is quite difficult to obtain tasks in the game "Life". Being able to obtain high-difficulty tasks also indirectly shows that the guild is strong.
The rest of the players will also make assessments based on these and hire people through the guild to help them complete the task, which requires the use of a hiring room.
Players can sign employment contracts there, with the guild acting as guarantor.
After roughly understanding the situation, Fu Tian asked the young lady: "Do you sell information here?"
The lady at the information desk was not surprised and said bluntly: "Yes, if the information you need is difficult, you can also leave it in the mission hall."
After saying that, he found another person to take Fu Tian into the room next to the mission hall.
There are also dedicated office staff inside.
"Hello, what can I do for you?"
Fu Tian told the other party what she wanted and bought a brochure on home buying and selling from him. The brochure contained information on the buying and selling methods and gold ranks.
After looking through the brochure, Fu Tian finally chose a location west of the outskirts of Licheng.
The west is a larger area with fewer people.
After spending most of the money in his backpack, he finally bought a large piece of land and the mountain behind it.
There is a small lake in the land I bought that is connected to the stream in the back mountain. When the time comes, I will drive wooden stakes into the connection point and use a net to prevent the fish fry from running away, and it will be a ready-made fish pond.
Although there is no house, Fu Tian is generally satisfied.
Because the land purchase was directly signed with the Licheng City Lord's Mansion, it was naturally protected by the system. So when Fu Tian entered her home, a circle of stone walls automatically appeared at the border.
No one can enter or leave without Fu Tian's consent.
After giving Xiao Yuyu permission, they walked into the home.
What comes into view is an unobstructed view.
Fu Tian: “…”
In one word, desolate.
There are no trees, no fields, and only a few fish.
After thinking about the future plans, Fu Tian felt that the word "poor" seemed to weigh a bit heavy on his shoulders.
