Chapter 13: Greed of Money Also Requires Using Your Brain
"Jade Emperor." I said very seriously: "I think our bank played a big role in this task, so we have a cooperative relationship. How can we be embarrassed to charge labor fees?"
I am not fair to the Jade Emperor. I directly pointed out our cooperative relationship. If he talks about labor fees with us again, it will be equivalent to paying labor fees on the premise of acknowledging the cooperative relationship. Then even if we collect labor fees, it will be too much. Nothing more to say.
The Jade Emperor obviously understood what I meant, and immediately stopped mentioning the issue of labor fees. "In that case, I won't force it. How about we discuss the issue of prisoners of war and wounded soldiers now?"
I nodded: "This is good."
The Jade Emperor asked: "Then what do you think should be done with the prisoners of war and the wounded?"
Rose said on my behalf: "I think prisoners of war and wounded should be distinguished first. After all, whether the wounded can be cured or not is two different things. Besides, the investment in the treatment process is not small. It does not mean that it can be calculated."
"There are some roads here, so what do you think should be done specifically?"
It seems that the Jade Emperor has made up his mind to listen to us first! Rose said very smartly: "Let our guild first pick out the parts we can handle, and then hand over those we can't handle to Heaven. As for how Heaven wants to deal with it, it depends on the Jade Emperor's interest. Whether it's alchemy, It’s okay to cultivate yourself into your own person.”
When the Jade Emperor heard this, he smiled and said to me: "You really have a wonderful wife!" Rose and I have a love ring, so NPCs can know that we are husband and wife, and the Jade Emperor is no exception.
I smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment from Emperor Jade. As a gift from you, can you accept my wife's suggestion?" This is called beating the snake. Anyway, it was the Jade Emperor who said it first. At worst, we have to go back to the starting point and start over again. discuss.
After all, the Jade Emperor was the leader of a powerful force. There is still some grace. Besides, we will have many opportunities for cooperation in the future, and the Jade Emperor already had the intention to win over us, so he didn’t bother us much and just nodded his approval.
On the surface, it seems that we only get the right to be selected first. In fact, this benefit is very great. Strictly speaking, the wounded among the prisoners are the real fighting force of Buddhism. Most of those who are not injured are non-combatants. There is not much use for such people if they go back. The right of priority selection allows us to easily take those with high strength. Find out first. This is important to improve the strength of the army.
After the wounded were treated, there were non-wounded prisoners. I spoke to the Jade Emperor first: "As for the remaining prisoners, we think we can distribute them according to everyone's credit. Our guild will get about 10% of them, leaving 90%." Chengdu belongs to heaven."
The Jade Emperor nodded: "I have no objection to this. Just do as you say."
I smiled and said: "Then the prisoners part is over, and the rest is supplies. According to general understanding, the distribution of supplies is based on combat contribution, but our guild has other ideas."
"Tell me about it." The Jade Emperor didn't seem to care too much about this.
Rose said according to what we had discussed in advance: "An item has different values in the hands of different people. For example, the emperor's jade seal represents a country in the hands of a prince fighting for power, but in the hands of a farmer It is just a piece of very valuable jade, the Jade Emperor should be able to understand this, right?"
The Jade Emperor nodded: "I can understand this, it's just like the Monster Power Pill. To monsters, it means hard work in cultivation, but to us gods, it's almost like poison."
Rose said: "Since the Jade Emperor can understand, it will be easy to handle. Our opinions are based on the role that various items can play in the hands of both parties. We analyze the value of each item in the hands of both parties one by one. In who Give it to whomever has the highest value. If it is the same, then distribute it to one side as counterweight items. After the items with height differences are distributed, use these items with no price difference to make up for the leakage according to everyone's contribution value. . If this kind of item is not enough, I suggest that the extra part should be exchanged by the party who takes more with other forms of items or something else. In short, it is to let these items maximize their value. "
"Okay, this method is good." The Jade Emperor obviously did not expect such a distribution method before, and the Jade Emperor's eyes lit up when he saw it.
After the general direction is decided, the Jade Emperor and we have nothing to talk about. Of course, the Jade Emperor would not personally intervene in the specific distribution of each item. He would just go through the motions. We opened the door and invited the three guardian beasts in, and began to study the future distribution of everyone's status.
In fact, this aspect is relatively easy to handle. The guardian beasts are originally scattered creatures and have no sense of status, so they don't care about their status. Heavenly Court's attitude is also relatively relaxed, giving the three major national guardian beasts real national guardian beast titles, and setting their status at a slightly higher level than the four sacred beasts. According to this ban, their status can basically go sideways in China. Coupled with their own strength, no one should be smart enough to cause trouble with them.
Under the premise that neither party is too nervous about this identity. Even if this matter passed easily, we returned to the celebration site and started participating in the celebration like nothing happened. After everyone had finished the party, I quickly led the people to surround Taibai Jinxing. I didn't want to rob him, but to curry favor with him. The Jade Emperor has clearly instructed that all the distribution of seized materials and personnel should be handed over to Taibaijinxing, which means that Taibaijinxing now has great power in his hands. As long as it does not violate the Jade Emperor's general policy, Taibaijinxing has a very high degree of control. If we want to get more things, we must fawn over Taibaijinxing.
I have already inquired very clearly about Taibaijinxing’s hobbies from Erlangshen, and the rest of the work is just to follow his lead. According to the information provided by Erlang Shen, we were both flattering and giving gifts, and we quickly knocked Taibai Jinxing unconscious. Once he relaxes, our distribution work will be much easier to handle.
After taking care of the Taibaijin Star, we began to distribute various supplies and personnel overnight. Under the arrangement of the heavenly officials, we first arrived at the place where the prisoners were placed. The injured prisoners were parked separately according to their physical condition, while the least injured ones were kept together with the uninjured ones.
"Is this where the prisoners are held?" Su Mei asked us, pinching her nose. "Why does it smell so bad after only two days?"
I explained: "This was originally a prison cell for Buddhists, but now it is used to imprison their own people."
"No wonder!" Sumei turned to Ying and Hongyue and said, "Have the target types been confirmed?"
"Of course." Hongyue nodded and said, "I've read it several times."
"That's good." Su Mei continued: "Quickly find the people we need, whether they are willing to join or not. Anyway, we have a way to make them our own."
After Su Mei finished speaking, we entered the prison together, and then moved separately, checking each cell. As long as there were symbols, we pulled out all the people we needed. Finally, we went to the outside of the prison to make a summary and then comprehensively compared them, and ranked those at the bottom. Then send them back, leaving only the approved number of people, and then go to Taibaijinxing to apply for the removal of these people.
Taibaijinxing was so flattered by our flattery that it no longer knew where it would go from east to west. He nodded and passed without even looking at it. Little did he know that with his nod, almost all the strongest masters in the prison were invited to us. Why do you say almost? Because we don’t dare to take away famous masters like the Golden-winged Dapeng Eagle. After all, there are not many fools in Heaven. It doesn’t matter if there are a few unknown masters. If all the people in the row are missing, the Jade Emperor It would be strange not to cause trouble for us!
After the wounded prisoners were taken away, it was the turn of the uninjured prisoners. We also had detailed screening rules for this part. According to these rules, we quickly selected all the necessary personnel.
We did not take away all the prisoners immediately after we got them. Instead, they were imprisoned separately, and the auxiliary professionals and combat professionals were all dealt with separately. All the combat professionals were escorted back to Isengard by the help of people from Heaven, while the auxiliary professionals were escorted to the floating islands in the New World by our own people. These people have different uses, but the specific operations It's troublesome to get up. We have to wait until we are free before we can go back and deal with these people. For the time being, we can only feed them and waste food!
After solving the problem of personnel, it’s time to move on to the problem of supplies. Taibai Jinxing originally thought that we would argue with him one by one for more than ten days before we could distribute everything, but to his surprise, we actually threw a list to him.
We wanted something large in size, but not in many pieces. One of the most outrageous things is Ziyun Mountain. To Heaven, a floating island is nothing rare. There are still hundreds of uninhabited floating mountains in Heaven. Even if the size of Ziyun Mountain is reasonable, it is just a slightly better floating mountain. There is nothing special about it.
Intelligence is very important in business activities. Our bank has two spies, Erlang Shen and Polar Star Jun. We have already investigated everything that Heaven Court needs and doesn’t need, so what we want is obviously extremely valuable, but Heaven Court has it. People don’t care at all and think we are easy to talk to!
This Ziyun Mountain is pointed up and down. It is thick in the middle and basically olive-shaped. The entire mountain was carved into layers like a multi-layered birthday cake starting from the thickest circle in the middle, with a total of eighty-one layers. It is said that this number of layers corresponds to the Buddhist allusion of ninety-nine to one, so the eighty-one layer was created. According to our measurements, the usable area of these eighty-one floors is approximately more than three times the total area of the Essinger Twin Cities, and this is still the external area. If we hollow out the entire interior of the mountain, only the largest floor will be The area is probably more than three times that of Essinger. Plus the eighty floors above. You can imagine how big its area is. Of course, it is not easy to completely hollow out such a huge mountain. Fortunately, our industry has a good industrial foundation, so it is just a matter of spending more money.
In fact, we have other purposes for Ziyun Mountain. The main reason is that there are large fruit trees on the mountain. What Buddhism grows are not apples, these are sacred fruits, the kind of fruits that I often go to heaven to grab and grab. Although the area of this fruit forest is not large, it does have seeds. As long as we cultivate them scientifically, I believe we will be able to supply them in large quantities soon.
In addition to Ziyun Mountain, we also need some relatively low-level equipment. Of course, this is compared to the equipment in Heaven. Even if these equipments are not top-notch among players, they are at least excellent level. What’s more, we still got enough to arm the entire guild’s NPC legion. We are all very satisfied with this choice, even Taibaijinxing is very satisfied. Why is Taibaijinxing satisfied? Because the things we got are standard equipment in the Buddhist equipment library. Basically, it can be considered as the worst kind of thing in the equipment library. Heaven basically treats these things as junk and has no interest in giving them away for free.
The third column on the list requires all Buddhist scriptures and materials. Of course, we are referring to those things that can be practiced. We are not interested in those scriptures that fool the common people. Taibai Jinxing began to show a little embarrassment in this regard. After all, there are many things in Buddhism that are very powerful, and this heaven also wants them. But he was quickly convinced because the classics could be copied. Anyway, we don’t have to keep the original, just make a copy. Taibai Jinxing heard that we just wanted to copy one copy, so he just made a large check without counting it in the requirements, so that we could get more other things. It seems that the previous investment was not wasted. Taibaijinxing still knows to give us some benefits in return.
The content of the subsequent hydrogen bomb is relatively more complicated. The above mentioned are all specific special items. Of course, these items have been selected long ago. In fact, our people have been counting supplies after the battle. At that time, we had already highlighted everything we needed, so we were able to come up with the list in such a short period of time. Because Taibai Jinxing didn't know what these things were, he couldn't make a decision immediately, so he had to show them to him one by one, and he could only take them away if he nodded. Fortunately, most of these items are not needed in Heaven. As for the things that are very useful to us, there are also some items that we urgently need and want from Heaven. At this time, we have to use our "gag" skills.
The think tank and diplomatic corps of our guild adopted a disruptive and disruptive tactic towards Taibai Venus, and tried to avoid the most important things and the least important things that Heavenly Court needed. It shows the importance of such things to us, and at the same time expresses that the needs of heaven can actually be replaced by other items. The best thing to do is to make Taibaijinxing feel sorry for their saliva than to give it to us.
I was busy until the next morning when Taibaijinxing finally confirmed everything. The old immortal came to me and wiped his sweat and said: "Xiaoxian always thought that he was the most eloquent in heaven. Today, he realized that there is a heaven beyond the sky. ! These people in your guild are simply more powerful than that sparrow. They made me see stars in my eyes. Now I don’t have too many gold stars, but too many gold stars. My eyes are filled with stars!"
"Hahahaha! Taibai is joking, how can they be so powerful?"
"You still said no!" Taibai Jinxing teased me secretly. "Don't think that I don't know. That gourd of Hunyuan Golden Pill is one of the top treasures in Heaven, but you guys say it's a dispensable thing that can be replaced by other elixirs. To tell you the truth, what do I mean? We all know, I'm just pretending to be confused. Who told me to take advantage of others' shortcomings and eat them, I'm the weakest!"
"You're welcome, you're welcome." I looked around and saw that no one was around and quickly stuffed another space ring into it, as for what was inside. Probably no one would have guessed it. In fact, the ring contained dishes for a thousand people. That's right. Just dishes. Taibaijinxing is delicious, even though his magic has long been able to prevent grains. But people don’t necessarily eat to fill their stomachs, otherwise there would be no such thing as snacks. Taibai Jinxing is very greedy, but everything in heaven is better than the world, except that there is no kitchen. The gods don't eat anything, except for the occasional celebration party where they eat some fruits. Taibai Jinxing is also a close official of the Jade Emperor, so he has no chance to eat secretly in the lower world. It's very uncomfortable to hold back. The gift I gave can be said to be everywhere in the world, but ordinary players don’t know Taibaijin Star. Even if they know each other through connections, no one dares to give such a high-level NPC such a common gift as dishes, so I am the only one with this information spread across the three realms. Only the lucky ones have the opportunity to curry favor with the Taibai Venus.
The dishes in the ring given to Taibaijinxing were cooked by professional chef players in the guild, and the materials were brought back by players who went out for leveling. The cost is almost zero, and the benefits of Taibaijinxing’s feedback are absolutely incalculable. This deal is so worth it.
I now understand that "Zero" is not a fighting game at all, it is actually a real world. Although the gods are extremely powerful in combat, they are actually flesh and blood. They all have their own preferences. As long as you find the right path, you can play with any god. If you want to rely on force to move sideways in the game, don't even think about it. Although the game system opens an upgrade mode after level 1,000, in terms of experience points, even if you play for a hundred years, you will not be able to reach level 1,500 or above. The basic level of the gods is level 1,000, and most of them are at level 1,500. Above level 1,500, the system has no intention of letting players defeat them head-on. As for a high-level god like Mother Earth, don't even think about it. With just one look from her, you won't even have ashes left.
Although everything was settled with Taibaijinxing, the specific handover still took a lot of time. There were so many magical weapons and things they had to take away that it took a whole day to move them all. After they are all gone, it will be our own time.
I first invited all the four sacred beasts through the relationship between the three major national guardian beasts, and then asked them to do two things. The first thing is to help me move the entire Ziyun Mountain to the sky above Steel City. We need to comprehensively upgrade this floating island. Since Fushan is close to the factory, we can save a lot of things. The second thing is that we ask the four sacred beasts and the three national guardian beasts to help us make a permanent outer reinforcement of the entire Ziyun Mountain, so that when we dig holes in the mountain, the floating island will not be destroyed. It fell apart, and the defense of the floating island will be greatly improved in the future.
After the four holy beasts left, Biling and Tianqing also left together. The young couple are getting more and more clingy now! Yinxue is now the patron saint of our guild, so she still stays to help. The system limits her combat conditions. She cannot participate in battles in many situations, but it does not stipulate that she cannot do other things, such as helping us build a new mobile fortress.
There are too many Buddhist buildings and magic circles on the surface of Ziyun Mountain, most of which can no longer be used. The magic circle is like the door lock of your own home, and the ready-made magic circles are all left by Buddhism. Although Buddhism is almost finished now, Tathagata and Jieyin have not been found. Who knows when they will find it again What about coming out? It's always uneasy to hand over the key to your home to someone else, not to mention that the person holding the key is your enemy?
The job I arranged for Yinxue is to demolish all the Buddhist sculptures and buildings without damaging the mountain itself, and also to destroy all the magic circles so that we can reinstall the new defensive magic circle. Even if the new array is much lower-level than the original one, at least the enemy does not have the key to my house, so safety is somewhat guaranteed.
Destruction is always faster than construction. It only took Yinxue one day to turn the buildings and Buddha statues into powder, and the defensive magic circle was also cleared. Su Mei and the others have also completed their design drawings. In addition, our guild's construction team has advanced equipment and many manpower. As long as the materials can keep up, it can be completed in a week. As for Yinxue, of course she can't be idle. Since she is very sensitive to energy, I arranged for her to work with researchers from our guild to design defensive magic arrays. I believe that the magic array completed by the white jade unicorn, which is the best at using energy among the three major guardian beasts, will definitely be better than the original Buddhist magic array. A better formation.
However, our peaceful life did not last long. On the day the Ziyun Mountain project started, Taibai Jinxing rushed to Essinger to find me. After learning that we were here, he quickly rushed here again. .
"It turns out to be Taibai!" I started to say hello from afar. "Why do you have time to come to me today? Could it be that you have finished the food from last time?"
"Even if I finish eating, I don't dare to leave the heaven without authorization!" Taibai Jinxing said anxiously: "Quickly, follow me to the heaven. The Jade Emperor is calling urgently."
"What happened again? Is Tathagata back?"
"The Tathagata didn't come back, but the demon took action."
