Starting from Zero

Of course hard work comes at a price, and today is the time to harvest. I was dizzy after two busy days, and finally finished all the work before Thursday morning. Now the cities in Indonesia are much more beautiful than when Indonesians controlled them. We did not hesitate to pay for this auction.

At nine o'clock in the morning Beijing time, more than 100,000 people gathered in the square in the center of Jakarta. For their own interests, all guilds have spared no effort to attract customers everywhere, and almost all guilds that are connected with our guilds have been drawn by us. Thanks to hearing Rose’s words, this plaza has been expanded, otherwise so many people can’t be accommodated!

Now on the city wall outside Jakarta, hundreds of thousands of NPC troops are standing by to defend the city. Our propaganda offensive is hiding the sky and covering the earth. Indonesians must also know that today is the auction day, so they are likely to take the opportunity to destroy our Auction House. With these guards outside, you can rest assured.

At half past nine we closed the square channel and officially started the auction. I stood in the amplifier array on the rostrum and said to the following: "Everyone, everybody, please be quiet. The auction now officially starts. Before the auction starts, our staff will distribute the auction brochure to you. This auction All the equipment, technology, battleship, cities, etc. in this booklet are described in detail in this booklet, and the order of the booklet is our auction order. As long as you scroll backwards, you can see ours in turn. Auction items. Okay, now I ask the staff to distribute the instruction book."

A large number of MMs immediately began to distribute the instruction book to the people present. This instruction book is more detailed than the one used for promotion. There are many, and the data in it are very accurate. What's more important is that this manual contains detailed instructions on auction rules, and special regulations for different items have also been written in the instructions one after another.

"While you are waiting for the staff to release the instruction book, you are listening to some of the rules while listening to me. You all know the general auction rules. I won't say much about this. Now I will mainly explain this time. Special content. First is the bidding system. We have applied for the auction protection system to the system. You should now be able to see a small payment system form in front of you. This contains your account information, and you can operate it in it. This No one but you can see the interface, so don’t worry about confidentiality.

After you get the instruction book, you will find that there is a bidding price under the photo of each auction item, because this time The item to be auctioned can be as large as a city or as small as a piece of equipment, so impossible uses the same bidding method. You only need to bid according to the bid price at the bottom of the script. For example, the bid price is 10,000 crystal coins, then It means that you have to increase at least 10,000 crystal coins each time you bid. Of course, you can also increase a lot at a time, but it must be an integer multiple of this number.

Because this auction has already applied for system protection, so A big crystal ball will appear in the field during the bidding, and the highest price is displayed inside the ball. As you bid, the crystal ball will automatically move and stay on the head of the highest bidder.

In addition, the number of items in this auction is relatively large, and they are all listed in one after another in the booklet. You can judge the time by yourself. If the items you want to buy are ranked later, you can consider going to other places first."

I have read out the general requirements above, and the following instruction booklet has also been distributed. All buyers have begun to read the picture book in their hands. There are more than 3,000 items in our auction, Zhongguang City, and the equipment that was seized was also used for auction. There are also some technical information about the Indonesian guild. Anyway, there are so many things. As a result, this time 'S instruction book became a super encyclopedia with more than 8,000 pages. We are just auctioning a country. One can imagine how shocking the trade fair this time was.

I, Rose, and Bailing are responsible for the presiding work of this auction. The time is too long and they will definitely need to take a break. After the buyers below got the instructions, they all sat down and began to read them, and I immediately began to prepare a larger instruction booklet on the stage. My book is more detailed than what they have, and I can't remember so many things. Without this, there is really no way to auction it.

After waiting for a few minutes, I began to say: "Everyone, now the auction officially starts. Because there are too many items to be auctioned this time, we will not introduce the auction items. Everyone, please change the items. It’s okay to hurry up and read the instructions. Okay, now the first item will be auctioned."

A huge holographic image emerged from behind me, which is a top view of a city. "What you see now is Palangkaraya, the first Fortress City in Indonesia. There is a detailed introduction in your brochure. I believe you have already read it. The starting price of this city is 1 million crystal coins, and each bid is at least One million crystal coins, start bidding."

Today's opening is really fierce enough, and the first auction item is very powerful. This time, we deliberately put a better city in the first auction, the main purpose is to liven up the atmosphere and make everyone excited, so that the later items will sell more and more expensive.

Palangkaraya is the Fortress City in the swamp that allowed the Germans to attack for a long time without any success. In the end, our windmill city played a huge role, otherwise this city really It is difficult to occupy. This video of the Three Kingdoms invasion of Indonesia has long been watched by buyers from various countries. Of course, this city is particularly valued. The buyers below were desperately shouting prices as if they were crazy. As a result, such a city just shouted 230 million crystal coins before being bought by a Swiss player.

Next, we started to auction some relatively small cities, with some equipment being auctioned in the middle, and the competition for buyers was fierce. Our shareholder guilds are all around listening to the constant drooling of the prices shouted by buyers. These money all determine our final income problem!

I presided over the auction by myself until one in the afternoon, and then took a 20-minute intermission. After it started again, I changed to Bailing to preside over the auction, and I went to rest. At 5:30 in the evening, I rested again, and then the roses were replaced. The first sentence from Bailing was: "How much did you make?" She didn't know the total amount on stage, and we were constantly calculating the total amount of funds below.

Eagle used her hands to compare five to four. She immediately asked in surprise: "45 billion crystal coins?"

Eagle shook his head, and then Bai Ling looked towards me. I smiled and answered her: "It's 54 billion."

Lark's eyes fell down without warning. Eagle hurried over and picked her up, but I smiled helplessly. Laugh, because more than two thousand people have fainted before Bailing. Those Americans who joined us in the war are all in extreme excitement. They are all howling frantically. After all, the total income is so exaggerated, and the final dividend is absolutely indispensable.

Actually, Rose and I should be the ones who fainted, because everyone else only knows that the first 2/3/2021 products sold for 54 billion, but only Rose and I noticed The important cities that are truly valuable and the equipment and technologies that are worth buying are in the last part, and more importantly, the goals of the really rich big guilds are the last things, and they are the real purchasers.

At the beginning of the third game, the number of people in the field was significantly less. Those individuals who wish to buy some equipment and those small guilds who wish to buy a small city to play have achieved their goals, so they have Began to leave the field one after another. But now, there are a lot of new faces in the field suddenly. These people left after sending out the instruction book in the morning, and they didn't come back until now. I know these are the representatives of the big guilds.

Rose stood on the stage to announce the start of the last auction. In order to let those big guilds understand the importance of the last one, the first auction item of 3rd Stage is East Timor. This time we will auction the entire territory of East Timor, Indonesia’s Ketamnanu and Atambua as a whole. In fact, this area doesn't have much strategic value, and the really valuable ones are the leaves of fragrant wood. The area we auctioned by the group this time is the entire growing area of ​​Liuxiang wood. Sixty-five percent of the world's total output of scented wood is here, and you can imagine how valuable it is. Monopoly equals huge profits, everyone knows this.

We plan to buy this area ourselves, and put it in the first position of the 3rd Stage. We hope that some guilds have not reacted to it and spend a few dollars less. By the way, we can also stimulate those big ones. The guild’s desire to buy.

When Rose shouted the reserve price of 100 million on the stage, the people below all gasped. Although the reserve price of auction items has little to do with the final transaction price, if the reserve price of an item is high, the transaction price is definitely an astronomical figure.

As soon as Rose almost finished shouting, Ziyue, the representative of our guild buying group, shouted out: "Five hundred million."

There was an uproar around, everyone was dumbfounded. NS. Rose yelled 500 million once on the stage, but no one responded, and then there was no response after yelling twice. I'm excited, if I can buy this area for 500 million, I will send it out. The actual value here is far more than 500 million.

When Rose was about to shout for the third time, suddenly a voice loudly shouted: "800 million!" The one who shouted was an American guild man, and I recognized him as the one who shot down this area. Representatives of guilds.

"Billion!" A German player shouted loudly.

"2 billion!" This is not what Ziyue called, but Sumei. She and Xiaoyao were sitting on both sides of Ziyue. I asked her and Xiaoyao to bid. Ziyue called out, but Su Mei was so excited that she called out, and the price gap was so big.

The audience was shocked, and no one dared to speak. The eagle suddenly reacted and looked back for me, but I was already not in the line. I knew something was wrong when I heard the price that Somei called just now, so I went offline as quickly as possible. The current total capital of the bank, Vajra, is just enough. If someone adds money later, we will not be able to keep up. So after I went offline, I directly logged into the online bank with a helmet, and then quickly mobilized 50 from my personal fund. 100 million renminbi remitted guild funds. 5 billion is the maximum amount of funds that I can mobilize without disturbing the father. This may be a big number for others, but it is not for me. After charging 5 billion, I quickly logged in to the game. This 5 billion renminbi is only equivalent to 500 million crystal coins, which is only enough to add a few more times. I know this forest is very valuable, but the price is a bit exaggerated. If the 2.5 billion crystal coins can't be dealt with, I will give up immediately. The risk is too great, and we don't need to carry it hard.

Sure enough, someone called out soon after Su Mi yelled. "Two-two billion."

Sumei looked towards me in embarrassment. I nodded them and compared them with a twenty-five. So Mi immediately shouted again: "2.3 billion."

"2.4 billion." This time it turned out to be a Japanese. We are attracting investment for the whole world this time, and it is normal for the Americans to bring in the Japanese. Anyway, it is the money of the Japanese.

"2.5 billion." So Mei called out the final reserve price.

"2.6 billion." It was still the Japanese, and this time he shouted an astonishing price.

"three billion." The sudden appearance of the voice focused the attention of the audience in one place. The Japanese watched the crystal ball floating above the head of an Italian in the field.

The bidder turned out to be a beautiful Italian girl, but it was obvious that she was bidding for a man next to her.

"Three 1.1 billion." The Japanese almost yelled out gnashing teeth.

"Three 1.1 billion and one million." The Italian girl seemed to call out the price provocatively.

Next, the two sides began to increase the minimum price increase of 1 million to 1 million according to the minimum price increase of this auction item. As a result, they just increased to 3.527 billion before stopping. In the end, it was the Japanese who succeeded in making the bid, but at this time he was already panting like a cow with bloodshot eyes and a mad cow with mad cow disease.

In the shocking eyes of everyone, the rose fell: "The auction item No. 179 was sold by this gentleman from Japan at a price of 3.527 million crystal coins. If the auction is successful, your bid will be automatically deducted. Please send someone to receive it as soon as possible."

This shocking bid is really unbearable. Originally, our guild thought that we were determined to get it. There are more ruthless ones, but to be honest, the price is indeed a bit risky. I don't know for what purpose the Japanese bought this land. Anyway, it was definitely not simply because of the precious trees. Those trees are worth less than three billion no matter how valuable they are.

While they started the next auction, I hurriedly went offline to transfer the funds back, lest the father knew about it and disciplined me. When it went online again, the second item had already been sold. This is a medium-sized city and sold 170 million, which is not bad.

In the next auction, we shareholders’ guilds began to participate in the bidding. Everyone knows that these are important cities. Must get one or two, so it is very difficult to deal with. Until 10:30 in the evening the auction finally ended Perfection. Because Jakarta was bought by an American guild that did not participate in the invasion, all our guilds that participated in the invasion had to be concentrated in Isinger. It's finally time to divide the spoils.

After all the guild leaders were seated, we began to read the report. "Our total income for this auction is...!" Rose deliberately paused, and all the guild leaders below stretched out their ears. Although they have their own statistics, their data is not complete because the entire auction has been going on for a day.

After seeing those people who are ready, Rose finally opened the mouth and said again: "The total income is 179.7 billion, 95,521 thousand crystal coins."

With a bang, more than half of the guild leaders in the field fell under the table, and the jaws of the remaining people all fell, and their eyes opened like copper bells. It took a long time for Ashford to react. After swallowing his saliva, he asked in disbelief, "I heard it right?" The small book was sent to each of their presidents, and Rose said: "These are detailed records of the accounts, and every one can be found."

The first thing those people saw after opening it. That is the total amount of statistics, all of them crashed again.

I knocked on the table and called their souls back. "Don't be in a daze, these are totals, that is, gross profit. Our war consumption is not a small amount, and we still have so many guilds to share the money. The final figure will not be so exaggerated."

My pot of cold water finally calmed everyone down, but they were still very excited because of the fire. Everyone knows that such a large sum of money won't be less even if it is divided, so they don't take my cold water seriously.

Rose once again opened the mouth and said: "This time the total number of people participating in the war is over one million, and everyone is of different levels. Fortunately, the system helps to make statistics. Let's let the system directly calculate the appearance fee of each person. The data is too large for our personal account, so we can’t be too busy to do so by the system."

I opened the system interface and clicked on system to assist salary payment. The account immediately after the auction was lost. A grand competition money.

Rose once again said: "A total of more than 100 million crystal coins have been spent on personnel salaries, so we have to deduct this part from the total account. The next is death compensation and equipment compensation."

The work of calculating accounts is absolutely boring, but if you are calculating how much money you can get, it is a very wonderful thing. Two hours pass unconsciously. In the cost of this war, our guild’s material consumption was as high as 4.9 billion crystal coins. These all are the materials accumulated by our guild for such a long time. But what those guilds did not know was that our account was actually not accurate at all. A lot of the consumption of the guild has been exaggerated, and no one knows the cost of many confidential materials. The final account made by Rose and the real account are completely different by 500 million crystal coins. In other words, only 4.4 billion of the 4.9 billion consumption is true.

In addition to material consumption, we have made a lot of money for NPC expenses. This time the guards in each city are all our NPCs. In order to defend the newly-occupied cities, we have invested a total of millions of NPCs. The average level of these NPCs is above 500. A large number of NPCs have received a large amount of compensation for us. Although NPCs are not paid as high as players, we have a lot of them, and as a result, we spent 1 billion crystal coins in one go. This 1 billion is nothing to us. NPC impossible and us want money, their equipment will not explode, and the city defense NPC will not drop, and it consumes nothing at all.

In addition, we have carefully designed the maintenance process of occupying the city, and most of the material prices are not allowed. We have made small changes to the price of each material. Originally, this change is not a big deal, but you have to think that this repair is done in all the cities in Indonesia. The materials consumed by so many cities are unimaginable. We only earn a penny for each piece of material, and the final figure is also scary. Rose secretly told me that we actually made more than 200 million crystal coins in this item. It's really enjoyable!

After we have cleared all the consumption, there will be only more than 90 billion in the account of the total funds. And our guild has already received more than 20 billion in funds. After removing the part that our guild really consumes, our guild has actually received more than 5.7 billion. Although the consumption is relatively large, the remaining net profit of more than 90 billion yuan is also considerable.

According to what we said beforehand, our guild as the leading guild provides a large amount of material foundation. As the leading guild, we can extract 8% of the net profit as a rake. In the end, we made more than 7.3 billion more than 90 billion yuan. The remaining 80 billion yuan began to be divided according to contribution, and this part began to have trouble.

The contribution value is relatively general. Although the system score can not be questioned, the proportion of some scores cannot be unified. Finally, we started to use the voting system and discussed while voting.

Our guild, as the leading guild, certainly ranks first in this contribution value. But some guilds think that our battleship should not be scored. The opinion of these guilds is that our battleship is based on lease, and everyone has already paid the rent for this in the gross profit, so the final points should not include warships. However, people in our guild think that battleship belongs to our guild after all. Although it is a lease, it is a fact to participate in the war. This point is still to be counted. In the end, everyone quarreled for a long time and decided to compromise. The battleship’s contribution was not counted, but the players and NPCs in the guild on the battleship must score points. Otherwise, wouldn’t these people fight for nothing?

After finally ending the argument, everyone started to divide the funds. Our guild has directly obtained two hundred three billion from the 80 billion, and other guilds will divide the remaining part. The result of Rose's statistics is that the net profit income of the guild in this battle is 37.7 billion crystal coins. But this time we bought a few cities, Garland City (formerly Tanjung Kalan, Indonesia), Surprise City (formerly Pekanbaru, Indonesia), Master City (formerly Tranepura, Indonesia), Lingzhi City on Sumatra Island. We bought the city (former Palembang, Indonesia) and Pure City (former Padang, Indonesia). In addition, we bought Mataram on Lombok, and now the city is renamed Sentinel City. Lombok is just such a city. After we bought it, the entire island became a sphere of influence. We bought this place for a purpose. The Americans bought all the nearby cities. If we don’t have a city in between, this place will be completely American territory in the future. When the time comes, we thought we would have to go around in a big circle in the past.

In addition to these cities, we also bought the original Palembang, the island outside our Lingzhicheng. This island is stuck at the sea entrance of Lingzhicheng. If it is thrown to others, it is equivalent to a time bomb at the door of the house, so it must not be let go. There are two cities on Bangka Island. After we bought it, we simply merged the two cities into one. Since the island is not big anyway, we simply changed the entire island into one city. The new city is called Bangka City, named after the original island name.

These cities and islands spent a total of 2 billion crystal coins, half of which were used in Garland City. The location of this place is so special that everyone wants it. As a result, the price was copied to the sky, almost nothing Buy it!

In general, this is a big profit, but it doesn't mean that you don't have to worry about anything. We must also pay attention to the more important thing, that is the day of revenge that will happen. It was early Friday morning after we finished the meeting, and the revenge will begin in thirty hours. Only if we can survive the big outbreak will be considered a real success.

We have known for a long time that there was such a revenge operation, so we were quite prepared. Of course, the news Ashford got from me was also prepared in advance. On Friday morning, we started selling various defensive weapons to these guilds that bought the city. The Germans mainly bought guns, ours mainly used various power equipment, and the Americans sold guns. Anyway, everyone has his own. The way to make a fortune.

Before the auction, we had notified the various guilds that there would be such a counterattack, but we did not say that it was very serious, mainly because we were worried about affecting the auction price, but now we are stepping up to publicize how dangerous this time is. , Anyway, it has been sold, we don’t care about returning it.

Those guilds knew that there was going to be a war, and now they saw us selling weapons, of course they were buying desperately, and of course we were desperately counting the bills by the side.

Although we took the opportunity to make a lot of money, the defense still needs to be carried out. Led by the guild, a joint counterattack strategy was proposed to each guild. Because these cities are not occupied at the same time, the time for Indonesian NPCs to retaliate is definitely different. We plan to arrange them in order, and we will support whoever guild is attacked. Try to fix this side before the battle begins in the next city, and then everyone will run to the next city to defend. In this way, we can always keep our own strength higher than that of the NPC, and the chance of success is naturally greater.

Now what everyone is not sure about is the refresh situation of the enemy. Ordinarily, the number of NPCs should be fixed, and the regional defense forces of various countries should be limited. It seems that in Japan, the only enemy that appeared was the ghost army. At that time, there were nearly 10 million ghost army fighting with Japanese players. After discussing with the presidents of our guilds, we found that there was a disagreement. At that time, if two countries established cities in Japan, the NPC's retaliation would definitely be different from ours. Everyone's differences are here. Some people think that NPCs will be separated, and 5 million NPCs will appear on both sides. Others believe that NPC will double, and both cities will be countered by 10 million NPCs. Some people think that the total number of NPCs is still 10 million, but they will concentrate on attacking one city first, and then move on to another one when it is over.

There are so many cities we need to defend in Indonesia this time. If so many NPCs are spawned outside each city, it would be really troublesome. Although everyone's opinions are not uniform, most people support the first argument that NPCs will attack separately. Because there is no result of the discussion, everyone has to strengthen their own defenses as much as possible. No matter how the enemy attacks, self-strengthening will definitely increase the odds of winning.

On Friday, the guilds are all preparing for the second day battle, and the busiest is Samarinda. This city was bought by an American guild. It was the first city to be occupied, and the counterattack must begin here. In order to ensure that the city can consume more enemy power, various guilds have donated here. Almost every guild paid for the purchase of a few artillery pieces for the city, and our guild even parked Windmill City directly on top of their heads, ready to help them guard the city at any time.

If NPCs attack according to our guessed first plan or third type plan, then as long as we defend this city, we are equivalent to defending all cities. Driven by this recognition, everyone has spared no effort in the construction of this city. After all, helping them is helping themselves. By Saturday morning, the rock was basically invisible in this city, and the whole city was covered by several layers of armor plates. All the buildings in the city have become forts. More than 100,000 artillery pieces of various types are densely packed in every street in the city, and all the places that can be enlarged are filled with cannons. On the sea outside the city, tens of thousands of battleships from China, the United States, Japan, Germany, France, Italy, Switzerland and Australia almost blocked the entire strait. The countries that bought the cities sent their fleets.

Our guilds stationed a large number of troops in this city, and even hundreds of thousands of players were ambushed outside the city. The presidents of various guilds are gathered here, and no one wants to fall here, because the destruction of this place means that the city you bought with your money may also be in vain.

Japanese players and Chinese players are still at odds, but for the time being, we are a community of interests, so we have to defend the city together. He didn't pay attention to his identity when he assigned the task. It was only when he was in charge of the lot that he discovered that it was a Japanese who was defending this area with our guild. When I met each other, I yelled and pointed at each other at the same time, because that guy was the Matsumoto Masaka of the Black Dragon club.

"Why are you?" Rose also cried out in surprise. There were no members of the Black Dragon Club among the Japanese who came to buy the city yesterday. The one who participated in the defense today will be the Black Dragon Club. The one who won't die is to keep a place with us.

"I said, "How come Heavenly Eye is jumping!" Masaka Matsumoto is also very disgusted with us.

The players on both sides started arguing with each other, and in the end they almost started merging ahead of time. In the end, Masaka Matsumoto and I came forward and asked everyone to stop for a while. Although both sides don't like each other, it is definitely not the time to fight. If the Indonesian NPC counterattacks successfully, Little Japan will indeed lose several billions, but we will not be much better.

In order to avoid conflict again, the people on both sides of us separated a five-meter compartment on the city wall, and found some NPCs to come in as isolation belts.

There was chaos on land, and it was almost the same on sea. The Japanese fleet and our fleet almost fought. At first, there were too many battleships in various countries, and everyone did not pay attention. Later, the two fleets came close to each other inadvertently, and as a result, both sides raised alarms at the same time. The German fleet and the American fleet hurriedly stepped in to separate the two fleets, otherwise it would be dangerous.

The Japanese conflict ended, and our players both felt relieved to start defending their own areas. Ashford pulled me aside and asked in a low voice: "What if it is really the second option?"

I shook my head: "I don't know. But I think the probability of the second option is not Big."

"Why?"

"Indonesia is such a large area. If 10 million NPCs are spawned out of each city, how many troops will it take? I think the system is not It will mess around like this. Probably based on the situation, an army was spawned to focus on attacking a city, and then one by one. After my city was destroyed in Japan last time, I checked with the high level NPC, it seems this kind of counterattack It is related to the defense of the city. Last time there were only 10 million ghost troops in Japan. This time it is estimated that it will far exceed this number in Indonesia."

"If you really can’t stand it anymore. What do you want to do?" Ashford seemed to be worried.

I thought about it and said: "The death of the player is not a big problem, but the material loss is a pity. If it really can’t be held, I will let the fleet retreat first. As for the city...! It’s best to be able to hold it. It’s really not possible. Anyway, we won’t lose money anyway. We earned enough money at the auction to make up for the loss. But I will never retreat early. The fleet can withdraw, but people can’t leave. Unless I defend the city, I would rather hang back."< /p>

"I understand." Ashford nodded said: "I think we will die to the last minute."

After Ashford left, the city gradually calmed down. , All guilds are in place, and everyone is waiting for the final revenge. As long as the defense succeeds, Indonesia does not exist, but if it fails, it is estimated that the city we bought will not exist.

This chapter is 9,000 and is currently owed Five thousand, I will slowly make up later.
