Chapter 373 Salary Payment
"So, you haven't participated in the limited-time battlefield missions these days?"
Guan Tang Bao, who was squatting in the tent sorting ore, asked in confusion: "Why not go? The prestige points given are quite high!"
A bunch of night cats replied: "My level is low, so I'll just be a waste if I go there, and I don't really like that kind of outdoor play. When I play other games, I often end up playing solo."
More than half a week has passed since the limited-time battlefield was opened. Although there are many more new players logging in during the public beta, the map of this limited-time battlefield mission is really large. In the entire Tiangui Mountain alone, there is not a single person to be seen even if tens of thousands of people are scattered in it, not to mention the Liuzhou area outside Tiangui Mountain. Because of what happened in the past few days, the environment has become even worse, so Fang Xianyu had to expand the scope of the map for clearing monsters out of humanitarianism.
The map of the two parts of Liuzhou is much larger than the current jurisdiction of Taiyin Sect. Even the Hundred Thousand Mountains in the southern part of Zhongzhou that have not been fully explored by players are roughly equivalent to the area of Tiangui Mountain. It is enough for players to spend some time there for a while.
"That makes sense! In fact, I feel okay about outdoor gameplay. I follow the team leader to go out to play in the wild because there is money to be made. If you run a lot, you can earn thousands or tens of thousands, and at least a few hundred. It's almost catching up with my salary in real life!" Guan Tangbao nodded in agreement, and then asked: "Hey, what master's inheritance do you plan to choose?"
A night owl said: "I haven't decided yet. I like cooking and I am considering whether to choose kitchen repair and open a restaurant."
Qi Chun, a turtle standing by, encouraged him, "Hey! Choose our invincible Hundred Soldiers! Play as a sword cultivator! The best of the best!"
Guan Tang Bao curled his lips in disdain and said, "Just give up. Among the players in our group, you have the worst output! It's simply a sewer profession! Don't mislead the newbies! You're not as good as us, the equipment repairmen!"
"What do you know! Being strong is only temporary, but being handsome is for life!"
As the turtle Qichun spoke, he began to mutter again, arguing, "Can the low output of a sword cultivator be called a low output?" Then he said some difficult to understand words, such as "Sword cultivators are beliefs" and "You don't understand sword cultivators, let alone swords", which made Guan Tangbao laugh so hard that he fell backwards, and the tent was filled with a happy atmosphere.
Guan Tang Bao said, "If you really like cooking, then a kitchen repairman is a good choice, or you can choose a doctor, which is a better job. You can also make more money as a nurse. After you build your foundation, the senior sister will give you a pill furnace for free, so you can save money on preparing weapons yourself!"
"That's not a weapon! How can you fight with a broken tripod? Are you going to lift it up and throw it to hit people?" The turtle Qi Chun said, "And I didn't even know they were practicing alchemy? Look at the royal bamboo grass, she does nothing all day long, and cooks hot pot in the alchemy furnace every day. The last time she brought me the Huiling Pill, it smelled of red oil!"
"Then don't eat it!"
"That won't work! If you buy it from outside, you'll have to pay for it!"
The two of them were arguing over trivial matters as usual, and did not notice the night owl who was deep in thought.
For three consecutive days, a night owl came online every day to sort the ore. Although due to work reasons, he could only squeeze out two or three hours online, but even so, for Qingning, he was a rare and stable worker, so he was given some extra "wages".
However, Sea Turtle Qichun disappeared for two days because of his real work, but Guan Tangbao came to work half a day every day without fail. After a while, he even made an appointment with a bunch of night owls to "work" together.
"You know what, if the money in the game is paid to those big guys who collect money, the benefits of working and earning money are no less than in real life!"
A group of night owls held a handful of brand new Taiyin banknotes and casually expressed their feelings while eating soup dumplings with their relatives and friends who received the same "salary".
Guan Tang Bao said: "That's right! So I have been hesitating whether to make money by playing games. The main reason is that I can neither edit videos nor do live broadcasts. It always feels unstable to make money by just following the group..."
A night owl had been hanging out with the soup dumpling for several days and was well aware of her family's financial situation. When he heard her say that, he immediately said unhappily, "What are you worried about? Your family owns a mine and you're not short of money!"
Guan Tang Bao chuckled: "Oh, you can't say that! Making money is still very enjoyable!"
"Hey!" A bunch of night cats rolled their eyes in disdain, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, aren't you a weapon repairman? Do you accept orders?"
Guan Tang Bao asked back with a smile: "What kind of order are you taking? Qiankun bags that are more expensive than the sect vendor's but of inferior quality? Are your hobbies so special?"
A night cat patted his head in annoyance: "Oh yeah, I forgot you're a rookie. I wanted to customize a furnace from you!"
"Oh my, you really think highly of me!" Guan Tang Bao sneered, but then said, "But if you really want to customize something special, I recommend you an NPC. He has excellent craftsmanship and low prices. Many people in our group have asked him to customize things. And he lives in Chang'an City, which is very convenient!"
A bunch of night cats asked in surprise: "Wow, are you old players so awesome? You have such a good relationship with the NPCs? Don't you have the NPC's contact information?"
Guan Tang Bao waved his hand and said, "The relationship is OK, but I don't have any contact information. This is not modern times, there are no mobile phones! If you have time, I can just take you over to get to know him. Although he accepts customization, he doesn't have a store. Most players really don't know where he is!"
A bunch of night owls nodded quickly: "Let's go! I just got my 'salary' and I'm afraid I won't be able to resist spending it soon, so I have to get some work done!"
The two discussed it and hit it off immediately, and decisively teleported from the Wuwang City's teleportation array to Chang'an City.
Chang'an City still lived up to its reputation as the most prosperous city in the server. As soon as I got out of the teleportation array, I saw a huge crowd of people at the "night market" outside the entrance. It wasn't even night yet, but there were already quite a few people there! What was even more exaggerated was that there were only a few players here, and most of them were monks from all over the place. There were even quite a few people who were obviously dressed in Liuzhou style - they all liked to wear fur coats and hats. Even if the climate in Zhongzhou really didn't allow for such clothes, they would at most wear fur coats that exposed their arms and waists. Their style was obvious and easy to identify.
A bunch of night owls are new to the city after all. They have only been to Chang'an City a few times. The last time they came was when the limited-time battlefield mission was the most popular, so there were not many people. In comparison, today seems particularly lively, so they exclaimed: "Wow, it feels like there are more people today!"
