I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players-Chapter 575 - 64: Founding a Guild, Establishing New Channels
The Bone Demon Sect, in the eyes of the world, is merely a Two-Phase Realm Sect, with a group of Middle Grade Professionals... a rather mediocre standard in all aspects.
There are many such Two Phase forces.
What they truly valued, however, was the Bone Demon Sect's vibrant, influencer-like operational capability!
For example, operations, building momentum.
Everyone can see... he's making patriotic money!
This force is earning wealth from the anti-Human Race Sea Race groups.
...
Another two days passed in the blink of an eye.
The Demon Bone Sect... its population keeps increasing.
People coming and going, even some refugees, after being verified as Pseudo-humans, have settled down.
No one here is rejected.
They even waive entry fees, considered a pioneering move by the Sea Race, sheltering a large number of lowly Sea Race "peasants" and gaining more reputation.
"There's no water here!"
"So this is a city without water."
"The mist concentration is perfect, and it feels moist on the skin."
Most of the citizens are living in such clean misty air for the first time, finding it very novel.
Mindless fish are easy to deal with, swimming in water, eating some feces of other fish... it's normal.
But once they gain wisdom, they develop a sense of propriety and morality; they don't want to live in pure seawater anymore, some fish excretes, they might just go crazy.
But the lower-class Sea Race lives in such primitive and barbaric simple environments.
At the city gate.
Batch after batch of refugees bring their families along:
"Great, we've finally made it."
"Grandfather, we've successfully escaped here."
....
"Form a line, the law is impartial! No matter your cultivation, your race, you must undergo inspection."
A mighty and robust young blacksmith rides a Pseudo-human Hippocampus patrolling around the city gate.
And in the perspective of the audience queuing to enter, a group of blacksmiths is also indulging.
[Recently updated big time, switching perspectives is delightful.]
[Now the entire city, perspectives can't be fully switched through.]
[So interesting.]
[This version update is really fun.]
[With so many refugees entering the city, can we recruit servant NPCs? Our blacksmith lord's mansion also needs some pretty little maids.]
[Indeed, I just saw a little refugee who passed by. Though covered in dirt, my experienced eyes could tell it was a disguise. That figure is just like some from Korean comics, so exaggerated!]
[Hehe, cat girls, bunny ear girls...]
[Insanity here, allowing them to partially transform, turning into beautiful mermaid maids, wouldn't that be nice.]
[Feels so good, I also want to become a lord, a bunch of servants serving, carrying bricks and forging during the day... returning home at night, maids handing grapes, fruit, and feeding me.]
[Hauling bricks during the day... becoming a landlord upon return, how terribly fragmented.]
...
Numerous onlookers are indulging.
Of course, Ning Zheng and Jiucai Rong do not disappoint everyone; after a few discussions, they introduce the Manor system found in most business simulation games.
Playing games is all about fun.
As for the strong demands of these young blacksmiths, Ning Zheng will satisfy them.
Now, the Bone Demon Sect's population is approaching three hundred thousand, and this number is increasing rapidly every day.
The blacksmiths, being part of the sect's management hierarchy, are allowed by Ning Zheng to buy houses, build furniture... and even hire NPC servants!
Sea Race servants are cheap.
During this refugee period, numerous fish selling their sons and daughters, basically ten Magic Coins can hire a servant for a month.
Just the houses are expensive.
Jiucai Rong has speculated them up to 10 Magic Coins per square meter in monthly rent, and that's with a discount for blacksmiths inside the sect.
A ten-square-meter bathroom would cost you 100 Magic Coins a month, how are you going to hire a maid?
Many small blacksmiths were already very poor, they all went to draw cards... a Gold-devouring Beast appears in front of them, they can only wail and continue frantically hauling bricks!
Of course, there are some thrifty rich blacksmiths.
For example, the Medical Fairy, Immortal Aunt, who keeps running medical clinics and earning a lot of money, now rented a house together, decorated it beautifully, and even invited Lin Meimei and other female blacksmiths over as guests, obviously preparing to establish a Guild.
Yes.
They are planning to turn their manor into a Game Guild.
The previous Sword Casting Manor, with so few people and small space... a game guild there felt a bit out of place, just like a dorm for six people having eight chat groups, and all you'd know is bickering among themselves.
Now it's different.
The player population keeps increasing. There are plenty of NPCs.
By establishing a Guild, they can recruit NPCs to work, to run some businesses, to make money.
Overall, with the expansion of the entire game, the ways to play are super numerous.
Players are not dumb; each one is cunning, instantly thinking of hiring some NPC cultivators to gather resources, hunt, and so on in the wild...
For example, the Medical Fairies in front intend to build a Mercenary Guild, recruiting a group of cultivators under a mercenary system.
In the manor.
Lin Meimei, the Medical Fairy, Immortal Aunt are chatting...
And also the old steward.
"You've done a good job with this house." Ning Zheng looked around.
Currently, the Bone Demon Sect is really changing day by day, even having their own villa now.
"Sir, we invited you over to apply for a Guild together, from the Hairpin Lady Tower of the manor and the Manor Medical Clinic!"
Lin Meimei said:
"Our Mercenary Guild will hunt Demon Beast materials, and then sew up various Magical Robes for sale, becoming a tailoring shop... then, create our own clothing brand, leading the trend, step by step moving towards luxury items."
Previously, they planned to delve into the fashion industry.
Unfortunately, the level was limited at that time.
The Sea Race here was somewhat backward; finally, they can make a grand display.
But now, with the Line-type Pseudo-Person clothing factory, sewing clothes is a professional match.
"Tell me more." Ning Zheng certainly wouldn't refuse.
Within his little blacksmiths, there are talented figures; even if they themselves are not talented... outside, there is a bunch of "keyboard warriors" offering them advice.
Medical Fairy: "Clothing is one aspect, we also want to make various skincare products, health supplements, and cosmetics... pioneering the beauty market."
Immortal Aunt: "On the Human Race side... various Beauty Pills, Beauty Creams, already dominate the market, but the Sea Race market needs a brand of our own!"
"Our brand, focusing on coral, pearl powder, and beauty series!"
There are also those engaged in cosmetics in the Hairpin Lady.
Their target is the female crowd.
Women's money is easiest to earn!
Their goal is to become capitalists; if they establish a luxury brand for the Sea Race, they will definitely earn money rapidly.
"No problem." Ning Zheng sighs that this is a major breakout of development for the Sword Casting Manor.
Previously they were an empty shell, but now they seem like a Trapped Dragon Ascending to Heaven, soaring once, rapidly filling up, and developing towards a major force.
Medical Fairy: "Have the kissing fish customer service, while taking calls, also promote clothes and cosmetics, we must push telephone fraud... ahem! Telephone sales guidance to the extreme!" 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
...
In the spectator's view, everyone is watching this scene.
These observers even feel they are more entertaining than the blacksmiths, who have to work in one place, while they can frantically switch perspectives.
Of course.
They are also the Patrol Team.
Monitoring every little blacksmith to ensure they don't pocket money or break the law and reporting them, they are the true enforcement unit.
The entire Sea Race street has become polluted and disordered due to the influx of numerous outsiders, so new cleaning crews are established.
A large number of female fish are employed, serving as cleaning aunts.
Certain forces also see the business opportunity, coming here to rent shops, selling their family specialties.
"Water Coral!"
"Freshly baked fish sauce pancakes."
"New store opening, welcoming all kinds of beautifully transformed beings, come and take a look."
...
The entire city's ecology quickly develops.
In fact, it took advantage of the approaching war, built on the flesh and blood of disaster victims with corpses everywhere.
