I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players

Chapter 164: Choosing the Rewards



Ning Zheng, who had no intention of distributing money, kicked off her shoes and began to lie on her bed, secretly browsing the forum for inspiration on stealing ideas.

In the official forum, various posts were constantly being spammed, all discussing various aspects of this weapon.

Ning Zheng glanced at the posts and found the content was all about:

[Whoa, this is a bug! The weapon was crafted by someone else, the blacksmith didn't do anything but cheer and encourage, just inserting a Medical Fairy is worth 3 million Magic Coins as a processing fee?]

[Scam! It's a total scam!]

[There's a kind of Qin Shi Huang beauty in the money throwing.]

[Bro, reality is more magical than the game! They're running a scam against the elderly. Given the game's realistic style, scamming the elderly is reasonable enough.]

[Look at the screenshots, these old folks left with tears streaming down their faces. They were definitely scammed to tears, but peering through the door crack, they saw you hammering iron, realizing you're a black-hearted gang, and fearing they couldn't leave without paying, they handed over a 3 million deposit.]

[They're too pitiful, boo hoo, cherish life, stay far away from the Demon Cultivation Manor.]

[Our persona has collapsed, letting the elderly in the Otherworld see our evil and the collapse of our morals and the distortion of humanity.]

[Hahaha, this is so much fun, hahaha, the freedom level is too high, hahahaha.]

[The person upstairs has gone crazy.]

...

A group of people laughed while crazily condemning these immoral scoundrels.

Apparently, they, like Ning Zheng, didn't understand what that Magical Artifact meant.

They only saw it as a routine order task, without sufficient understanding of the outside world.

In their eyes, the Medical Fairy is overflowing with luck, her cost is only a few hundred Magic Coins, turning it into 3 million, isn't this akin to deceiving the elderly?

They assume it's a Divine Weapon, but the level shouldn't be too high, a kind of low-quality counterfeit.

And there's a contrary Artifact Spirit likely to betray its master at any time. The owner probably won't end up well. Can this weapon be used? Can it sell for a high price?

And this lousy developer's style this time is clearly off!

If they were the developers, they would undoubtedly keep up with the times, causing the elderly to fall and extort money on the spot, making these immoral blacksmiths taste the evils of society.

Three million Magic Coins?

Not going to give it at all.

Of course, everyone was also discussing the reward for this task.

[3 million Magic Coins, the game's economy has collapsed!]

[Collapse what? Guess how much Magic Coins we'll be left with? I bet it won't even reach one percent, the blacksmith scams clients, the Manor Master directly scams the blacksmith, this is called layered exploitation.]

[Speaking of which, the fusion of Embers has been thoroughly verified as the key upgrading method for forging, right?]

[Definitely! At the same time, the Muddy Artifact needs research too; this time, Yin Yang Fusion almost failed, thankfully, we collectively used our lives to open Three Flowers and gathered a bunch of elder locals to help as a lubricant between Yin and Yang.]

[As expected, Embers are the soul shell, only by filling it with residual soul will it be complete.]

...

Ning Zheng let out a sigh of relief.

They chatted and eventually shifted to other topics.

But how could they know that I wouldn't leave them any Magic Coins?

Have they been through so much of this that they're used to it?

Anyway, as long as they can accept it, it's fine.

He looked around again and found that everyone generally believed the 3 million Magic Coins wouldn't be left to them, which would cause the so-called [Game Currency Collapse].

Ning Zheng suddenly felt these people were quite interesting; he could secretly look at what rewards they discussed hoping for and choose to grant some of them.

He began opening posts to browse one by one.

[Average of ten free resurrection opportunities per person.]

This reward requires deliberation.

[Reset resurrection count to zero.]

This reward will be kept as a backup option.

[Using 3 million public funds to purchase a large amount of materials and public facilities to build the manor.]

What facilities need so much money?

She just bought a batch of devices back.

This was skipped.

Wait!

Maybe not, this matter must wait for Gui Pu's message to return to see what trouble he has caused.

Ning Zheng also didn't know what their combat power was or what extent of damage could be caused.

After all, he was still a small cultivator in the Five-Body Realm earlier, and the great turmoil in the city was too far away from here.

If chaos erupts, and the three major families suffer heavy casualties, various devices may need to drop in price!

Because the three major families might not have enough personnel to manage the shops and maintain various equipment, choosing to sell at a low price at that time.

How can she not buy at a low price?

When getting online tomorrow morning will reveal it, the channels of information are nothing more than two.

1. Zhang Huaping coming over.

2. Sword Fairy Communication.

The Sword Fairy also carries that Communication Token, allowing communication with the manor.

But she hasn't communicated, it must be life and death, very busy, and will definitely talk once free.

"Look again at purchasing large public facilities."

Ning Zheng feels there's no need to save since she has so much money; she can make the manor more solid.

Plus, haven't they always wanted to build an Alchemy Room? Now, with ample funds, they can develop this as well.

Continuing to look.

[100 Magic Coins per person.]

This request is quite low; first, select this reward.

[Not telling the Manor Master, secretly colluding to embezzle, 200 blacksmiths each with 10,000 Magic Coins, 1 million Magic Coins for the old manager.]

Absurd.

This is way too much.

Ning Zheng took a look at who proposed this.

Food God?

Hmm, noted.

This scoundrel last time tried to fool him by saying that tobacco and alcohol were the first production forces of the manor, persuading him to invest in the canteen.

Fortunately, he saw through it and rooted out such trouble-makers, silently noting it down again, and checked the next line:

[Send an employee invitation: allowing a blacksmith to invite a companion from the mountain into the manor to work together.]

Actually, Ning Zheng was inclined to disregard this option.

But after sweeping through it, with 6861 upvotes, they had too high a voice.

Even compared to the most absurd option of 10,000 Magic Coins per person, the voice was three times higher.

This made Ning Zheng a bit curious.

A huge sum of 10,000 Magic Coins is something Zhang Huaping would never dream of obtaining in her lifetime; could it not be competing with a slot in these blacksmiths' eyes?

He took a careful look.

Found that in their eyes, it indeed didn't compare.

Because in the forum, people are already paying a high price, 8,000, to purchase a slot, and they're still crazily increasing.

If they got a transferable blacksmith slot, selling it off would be akin to collecting 8,000 in real money.

Ning Zheng immediately slapped his thigh:

"This is great! It's what they most expect, and it's the cheapest for me."

"But giving each one a selectable quota, isn't 200 blacksmith slots too many?"

"Simply allocate by building area, let them sell the slots themselves."

"Canteen, 2 invitation slots, after all, there are only two people there; the rest are temporary workers."

"Blacksmith shop 40 slots, Enchanter 30 slots, the clinic did a great job; although there's only one Medical Fairy in the clinic, give her 10 slots, Spirit Farmer area 10 slots, dorm management 2 slots, mine 4 slots..."

Ning Zheng seemed to have forgotten something.

Suddenly remembered the Dizzy Four outside.

Since already giving, Ning Zheng also granted the Legendary Eye Squad 2 slots.

Motivate them to work harder in conquering the Hidden Vein map and take down the Red-clothed Sister!

Ning Zheng was satisfied:

This hundred freely chosen slots should be enough for them to sell!

Moreover.

Those willing to spend money to buy slots are probably at the level of Su Yuniang "tycoons."

Their Qi Fortune Values are presumably not low.

As for specific skills?

Nothing to expect, these skills are learned gradually after entering.

Besides, Jiucai Rong has said before.

These tycoons move in, they'll often massively buy Magic Coins.

This will dramatically improve the currency circulation in the manor, encouraging those blacksmith movers to work even harder, working for the tycoons!

With so many additional benefits, Ning Zheng decided to choose this option.

"Then the reward previously selected, 100 Magic Coins per person, cannot be given."

Ning Zheng mused, "After all, nowhere in the world offers both; in reality, getting a huge sum makes one impoverished in the manor."

After all, as Jiucai Rong said, poverty drives them to work harder!

Ning Zheng doesn't manage but does reference Jiucai Rong's opinions well.

Although he can't manage for them or be the so-called pig teammate, dragging down Jiucai Rong's running of the manor.
