Chapter 74 Distribution Plan
Jakarta was one of the first cities to be captured. It was here that the second echelon of Americans landed, so the occupation took a long time. Now the entire Jakarta has been renovated, and the facilities in the city have returned to pre-war levels. In fact, we can build the city to be more complete than when the Indonesians themselves owned it, but considering that we have not yet determined who owns these cities, we do not plan to build it too well for the time being.
The presidents of each guild gathered together and began to discuss the contribution value issue that everyone was most concerned about. Because there were a lot of people and Jakarta didn’t have a conference hall as big as Essinger, we had to stand in the square to discuss it. Anyway, this was not something that needed to be kept secret.
Standing around this square are the main leaders of each guild, and those in the inner circle are the guild presidents. In the center are Ashford, Feng Yin Piaomiao, me and Rose, and there is also an American named Sanhe. people. Ashford is the representative of the German guild, Feng Yinpiaomiao is the representative of the Chinese guild, and Rose and I represent the organizer. After all, we are the ones who started the matter. Of course that Sanhe is the representative of the American guild. This guy is a Chinese-American. I don’t know why the Americans let him be the representative.
I signaled everyone to be quiet first, and then I took the document from Rose. "Everyone, first of all, I want to congratulate everyone on their complete victory. Although Irian Island is still under the control of the Indonesians, that has nothing to do with us. The players in Papua New Guinea will slowly swallow up the entire island. We We don't need to 'worry' about it. All we have to worry about is the money in our hands."
"Oh...!" Cheers broke out below.
I waited until the sound stopped before continuing: "According to the prior agreement, we will use the auction method to divide the results of this victory. First of all, I hope that everyone can quickly convene interested guilds to participate in the auction in these two days. Plan, the more buyers you find, the higher your income is likely to be. So, everyone must work hard."
"Of course, we will definitely not have trouble with money." A person from the Chinese guild shouted.
I nodded with a smile and continued: "The contents of this auction include occupied cities, supplies in the cities, captured cannons and battleships, and some technical scrolls. If you have anything you want during the auction, you can share it with others. Buyers bid alike." I saw a person raise his hand as if he had something to say. "Excuse me, does that friend over there have anything to say?"
"I wonder why we have to pay for something we built ourselves?"
"The reason is very simple. This is done for the sake of fairness. How much is a city worth? How do we divide it? By area or quantity? This cannot be fair at all. So we decided to auction. Whoever likes can spend their own money. Bid. But you are insiders after all. So you can get a 50% discount. No matter what price you shout at the auction, you only need to pay 95% of the price you shout in the end. When all items After they are all auctioned off, we have a ratio of war profits. Distributing cash directly is more convenient and fairer than using items."
Everyone nodded together.
I continued: "This is not directly divisible compared to war profits. War investments need to be removed first, so that pure profits can be obtained. Now, Miss Rose will help you eliminate various war losses."
Rose brought up a large book, then opened it and said: "Now I will calculate the war losses for everyone. To facilitate the period, we have applied for a public reading system from the system. You can open the properties panel to view the new A liquidation list of war losses in the project appears."
The presidents opened the properties one after another and started to check. Rose continued: "Everyone, listen to me while watching. First of all, we have to calculate the investment of personnel. Every player's cost of playing is loss. Everyone should be able to understand this." People around him nodded. When we fight, we are like mercenaries. We can't ignore our wages just because we are the beneficiaries!
"Each person's appearance fee is calculated based on personal level, unit type, and appearance time. The conversion formula is at the top of the second page of the table you see, and we have applied for the system to help us calculate everyone's appearance time. The result is The statistics are calculated by the system without our involvement, so there is no need to doubt its fairness."
This time we were well prepared. In order to prevent the back-and-forth from hurting the peace at this time, we have already applied for the system to calculate this thing, so that there is no need to argue.
"Okay, everyone, in addition to these things, the personnel costs also include damage fees. All ** teams will pay for battle injuries and deaths. Of course it is the same here. All players who die in battle will be compensated according to their level. And the number of deaths is used to calculate compensation. After all, the meaning of a level 300 player losing a level is completely different from a level 600 player losing a level. In addition, players whose equipment explodes during the war must also be compensated according to the losses. This calculation It is also the responsibility of the system. The system has recorded the equipment status of all participants before the war. This record is confidential. After all, personal equipment status is also a secret. If our guild does not know this equipment status, the system will directly record the losses. Record the attributes of the dropped equipment. We will compensate according to the price multiplied by 130% by the system. As for the medicines consumed in the war, those medicines are provided by our guild The total value is 2.37 million crystal coins. This number has been verified by everyone before starting. I don’t think anyone will have any objections, right?"
Seeing that everyone below expressed their acceptance, Rose continued: "After the personnel consumption calculation is completed, it is the equipment consumption. The warships, artillery and various equipment that our bank will invest in this battle all require funds. The materials lost in the battle For example, the shells fired and the warships sunk will be compensated according to the cost price. The warships and artillery that have not been lost will be billed according to their combat effectiveness and usage time. It will be treated as if everyone rents these things together. The billing amount is everyone's credit. You can see them all in the list. Do you have any opinions on this arrangement?"
To my surprise, no one objected. I thought there must be many people here who would object.
Since no one objected, Rose began to explain: "The next item is the investment of NPCs. Our guild has a large number of defensive NPCs participating in the battle this time, and of course this cost must also be calculated. Of course, NPCs cannot charge the same as players. We plan to In this way. In the end, five thousandths will be extracted from the 'gross' profit from the auction as our NPC appearance fee. Do you have any opinions on this?"
"No. No." Those guilds were surprisingly cooperative.
Rose continued: "The occupied cities were all beaten to a mess in order to sell them at a good price. We have been repairing them for the past two days, and we should be able to complete the repairs before the auction. The repair costs must not be paid by our family, right? So, right? It must also be deducted from public revenue. The repairs are still in progress. When it is completed, we will make a table of the consumption costs during the repairs, so there should be no problem. In addition, there is the last diplomatic consumption. In order to let the new The people of Guinea helped to participate in the war and got the neighboring countries to agree not to send troops to cause trouble. We used a few tricks. The consumption in this process was about 60,000 crystal coins. You can see the specific usage in the list. Okay. , that’s all the consumption part.”
I continued: "According to the consumption part mentioned by Rose just now, as long as those parts are deducted from the total income, the pure profit can be obtained. In this battle, the system has calculated the contribution value of each guild for us. This time the net income will be Distribute according to the proportion of the contribution value of each guild in the total contribution value. In this way, if any of you buys the city you conquered, the final income should be able to almost offset the purchase cost. So you don't actually have Spending extra money to buy your own city is just a disguised form of distribution."
"Then what should we do now? Start the auction right away?" asked the president of a small guild.
I replied: "We started our attack in the early morning of last Saturday. The first city we occupied was on Saturday morning. According to what we know, the time to retaliate by establishing a city in a foreign country is seven days later. In other words, this Saturday morning There will be a counterattack. The guilds that have newly purchased the city may not be able to adapt to the new city, so they need to familiarize themselves with the environment one to two days in advance. In other words, it is best to sell the city to them on Thursday morning. "
"It's late Monday night now, not much time left on Thursday morning!"
"That's why we have to hurry!"
Sanhe suddenly jumped up and said to the bosses of the American guilds: "Everyone has heard it. If you want to get more money, go get more customers. The more people buy, the more intense the competition will be. The higher the price will be for us. The more money we make, why not work hard for our crystal coins."
I quickly stopped everyone: "Don't worry yet. Take this with you before you go out." I pointed to the open space next to me, where there were many carriages filled with pamphlets.
"What are these?" asked a German president.
Rose walked over and took a few copies and said: "This is the brochure we printed. It contains all the auction items, including photos and text descriptions. When you go back, take this and send it to those who are interested. You make it more convenient for people and easier for them to understand.”
"Your guild is really thoughtful!" The presidents of the American guilds quickly took a bunch of them back and passed them around.
Ashford stood next to me holding a brochure and said, "You are so amazing, you even thought of this thing."
"This is not the first time our guild has held a large-scale auction."
Feng Yin Piaomiao came over and said: "They have been 'profite' merchants for a long time. At first, they replaced the iron-clad ships and sold all the wooden ships. Recently, they fought against the Alliance of Light and sold so many cities. By the way, we The Yunxiao City that the guild now manages is also theirs, and they actually use it for contracting. Do you think they are 'profiteers'?"
Ashford smiled and said: "We are not used to such complicated things, it is better to keep it simple. You guys can work here first, and I will go back to Germany to see the situation. Maybe I can get some good buyers. .”
"Then don't delay. Go quickly."
Within two days, all the guilds in our temporary alliance went crazy to recruit people, and they scattered brochures everywhere. The content promoting the auction can be seen in all promotional channels of "Zero". The Americans also put up a strange advertisement, the content of which is this. "Want a colony? Are you worried about insufficient troops? It doesn't matter, we will fulfill your wish. As long as you pay the starting price, you will have a piece of land among the beautiful tropical islands. Why are you hesitating? Come on! Beautiful The tropical beachfront awaits you.”
Of course we can't have any time when other guilds are recruiting people. This auction is actually for the whole world, and any country can come to buy. We knew we had no control over the land, so we simply broke it up. If the entire Indonesia is controlled by hundreds of countries, then we can get more help in the subsequent defense war, so we don't have to worry about the defense failing at all. In order to get more countries to participate, we have also specially dispatched propaganda personnel to countries around the world. Anyway, we will not let go of any area we can visit.
The publicity outside is in full swing, and cities in Indonesia are also very busy. Some of these cities were severely damaged and could not be auctioned directly, so we had to rush to repair them. While Woma and the others were busy with construction, Rose was rubbing her temples and doing accounting in pain. We can't lose too much on the construction costs this time, and Rose is helping us get greater profits from our accounts. It is not an easy task to completely balance such a large project cost account, which is why Rose has such a headache.
Although on the surface everyone has their own tasks, in fact I am the busiest. I have to coordinate the intersections of various guilds, and the internal affairs of my own guild are also serious. Now on the route from Indonesia to China, our fleet is running back and forth like a conveyor belt. The situation is similar in the transnational teleportation array, with an endless stream of buyers coming to see what the city is like.
