Conquer Another World From the Beginning of the Game

Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Six

The spider's nest that goes directly underground in Exile Town is the first novice spawning point "designed" by Yang Qiu for players.

When "designing" this strange point at the beginning, Yang Qiu of course also used his heart.

In order to ensure that there is a steady stream of first-level spider monsters to provide players with "services" around the clock, he first explored a giant cave, and worked hard to find spider holes and spider nests within a radius of tens of miles. Collect these low-level spider-type monsters of various "species" into the same cave.

This kind of unreasonable forced cohabitation operation has led to a strange situation where multiple monsters "mixed" in a monster lair-this situation must not appear in the real monster ecology-but anyway, the player As long as there are strange killings and violent things, it is enough, and will not care about the ecological problems of monsters.

But... the frequency of monster "refresh" is to meet the players' need to spawn monsters. The problem of excessive monster density has emerged again-let alone newly "born" cute new players, fully armed old players go in to spawn monsters. , It’s not uncommon to accidentally trigger monster riots, reduce staff and even destroy groups.

The desolate stronghold is open, and there are more poisonous fog swamps, which can attract a single monster to be brushed. After the players are more enthusiastic about the spider's nest, the enthusiasm for the monsters is greatly cooled. Swamp Run has been able to explain the failure of the "design" of the novice spawning point of Spider Lair...

Although the spider lair is a relatively unsuccessful design for novice spawning points, after all, spider venom sacs are still more commonly used casting materials and alchemy materials. Players still need to turn in spider venom sacs when changing jobs, exchanging prestige, and the designated equipment materials of the Undead Chamber of Commerce. , So Yang Qiu didn't plan to change it... Just develop a newbie spawning point that is less difficult and easier to survive.

An open-pit coal mine located in a hilly area. There are large tracts of surface fruit dew, weeds and moss on the west and north, dense forests on the east, and a natural river passing by to the south, with large areas on both sides of the river. Tidal flat.

Yang Qiu climbed up a hill about a hundred meters high and looked around.

In the dense forest to the far east, there was a roar of monsters from time to time. At the end of the line of sight, one could vaguely see the huge harpy rising and falling among the canopies in the depths of the dense sea of ​​trees.

A lot of muddy ooze monsters with muddy colors lie on the southern beach just a little bit closer, as well as a rot-skin crocodile half of its body buried in the mud.

The large rocky beach in the northwest seemed calm and calm, but when a lizard climbed over the seemingly unremarkable bushes of thorns, a sandworm as thick as a thermos suddenly appeared in the sand, biting the lizard and lightning. Generally retracted into the sand.

"Ooze monsters and sand worms are counted as level zero, and rot-skin crocodiles are counted as level one, and the density of monsters is lower than that of spider lairs. If only tidal flats and rocky beaches are drawn in, this place is enough for novice players."

Yang Qiu touched his chin and pondered: "The only problem is that you are too close to the dense forest. If higher-level monsters wander out of the dense forest, they will slaughter the active players here... Forget it, it's a surprise in the process of spawning monsters. Put another zombie NPC on the edge of the dense forest, and when a player approaches, remind you that you can’t enter, and your obligations will be fulfilled.”

"The skin of the ooze monster can be used as armor lining...No, it seems that the skin of the alchemy puppet needs to be refined from the skin of the ooze monster? Well, this is valuable. Five pieces of a copper coin can be recycled with the player."

"The Sokri people seem to have the habit of feeding livestock and poultry with sandworm meat, but it can save feed money... Sandworms are also more difficult to kill. A sandworm corpse is worth one copper coin."

"Novices can earn prestige by spawning monsters. It is unfair to the old players, it will reduce the gold content of prestige, and the prestige will not be settled."

"The old players also worked hard to get the spider lair open. The monster spawning points in this mining area can't be opened casually...Let's do a big task for them!"

After figuring out a rough outline, Yang Qiu acted immediately...

First, he went to the "corpse source"-that is, the remains of the ancient battlefield on the Tarantan Wasteland.

The Tarantan Wasteland, where the war has been fought for hundreds of years, is full of remnants of this ancient battlefield. The three thousand accounts of this group of new players were picked out from countless corpses after Yang Qiu ran a few relics...

To the east of the town of Exile, more than eighty kilometers away, in a naturally formed canyon.

This ancient battlefield ruins where many thousands of people were buried has been covered by dense vegetation. Yang Qiu destroyed part of the plants at the entrance when he came to pick up the "materials"; this time he came to see that many of them were originally covered by vegetation. The entangled skeleton came to "live" and wandered at the entrance of the canyon he had cleaned up.

"This place feels very suitable to be used as a plot scene... It's better to use it when there is no activity to contain the player's energy in the future."

Without squinting his eyes, Yang Qiu passed through the unconscious and slowly wandering primitive undead and entered the depths of the canyon.

There are very few "zombies". Except for the special environment of swamps that can produce zombies, most of the corpses will inevitably become bones.

Skeletons made of bones can't be used as NPCs, because players will attack NPCs with their hands.... Skeleton NPCs can't be resurrected indefinitely like players.

After searching in the canyon for a while, Yang Qiu finally found several waxed corpses in a cave that was once used as a temporary material storage site and collapsed due to unknown reasons to form a confined space.

"One, two, three...are there only five? Zombie NPCs are really hard to add."

Yang Qiu shook his head, took out the tent cloth from the space ring to wrap the five waxed zombies, summoned the undead lizards, and pulled them back to the mining area.

Next, the five waxed zombies will be assigned appropriate "story NPC" identities, and then a prototype of a mining site will be laid out to wait for the arrival of the players...

When Yang Qiu conscientiously planned the game content for his anchor plan, Westem, Rex and Ji Tang, three hundred kilometers away, were facing a severe test.

"There is still a week left before September. By September, the villagers will start to sell grain and pay taxes."

In the conference room, Ms. Shirley, who has lived in Westham for more than six years, solemnly spoke first: "At this time in previous years, the butler of Baron Marcus would bring the convoy to Westham to purchase the villagers and send them together. The wheat, corn and soybeans that came to the town, and paid taxes on the spot."

"The Marcus housekeeper will keep the price low, forcing the villagers to sell at least 50% of their output in order to barely pay the tax." said another lady who had been the leader like Ms. Shirley, "but just What I have heard... They also need to prepare more than five thousand gold coins."

"Mr. Rex canceled the local tax. We only need to guarantee the tax for the king and the church during the autumn tax period." Ms. Shirley said, "To guarantee the tax payment throughout the territory, at least three thousand gold coins are needed."

"Three thousand gold coins..." Rex pressed his forehead with a headache.

Three thousand gold coins are equal to thirty thousand silver coins and three million copper coins.

Three million copper coins are spread evenly among the more than 20,000 people living in the Westham Territory. It doesn’t seem to be too much. Each person only needs to pay more than one hundred copper coins. It’s just a matter of taxation, no matter what the world is. It is impossible to adopt an amortization model, and it must be done in accordance with the system.

The urban population pays taxes in proportion to the income of the highest-income male owner in the family. The average annual income of adult men in Westham is about 100 silver coins. That is to say, the average tax that each family needs to pay per year is about 30 silver coins— -Because most of the urban population is a large family, although this tax is painful, it will not hurt the urban residents.

Farmers don’t pay taxes by looking at the family’s annual income, but on the basis of their property.

If only according to the laws and regulations of the Rhine Kingdom, the taxes paid by the farmers are not too harsh...10% of the output is turned over to the Lady's Church of Gold Coins, 10% of the output is turned over to the King, and 10% is turned over to the Direct Ruler. The lords in this area turned in 30% of the harvest line in total.

But everyone who has read history knows that the rules set by the superiors are used to restrain the people below, and those who are qualified to influence the rules often like to do things that are blasphemy and trampling on the rules.

It seems that 30% of the agricultural tax on output is not too heavy. If you add a rule that you can only pay with coins instead of accepting in-kind taxes, and create a rule that local farmers can only sell food to local lords, can the farmer be able to do so? It depends on whether the local lord is willing to be a man or not.

Rex's father was a landed viscount. He knew very well how much power the nobles who actually owned the land had over the locals.

Being promoted to the position of lord by Yang, the first thing Rex did was to cancel the urban family tax model, which was based on personal income only, and the monthly income was less than 18 silver coins without paying a penny; for The farmer directly cancels the 10% tax in the local lord's share. He is too aware of the impact of the exemption of this 10% tax on the local farmers.

The local lord’s tax is exempt, the king’s tax and the church’s tax still have to be paid. Regardless of whether you want to depress the peasants’ food prices, Rex, as the current lord, still has to prepare a large amount of money, and the money is not enough, it is them. The biggest problem facing.

"With the current cash in the town hall and the Sokri caravan's materials seized by the undead a while ago, we can barely make up one thousand gold coins at the moment." Rex sighed, "Before the autumn tax deadline, We must find a way to fill the gap between these two thousand gold coins... Otherwise, the Bartles family will have an excuse to interfere with Westem."

Ji Tang frowned and said, "Aren't there many manor farms in this area? Those manor farms don't have to pay taxes?"

"It's really not necessary." Rex said very painfully. "The land of these farms has been bought out at one time, and the ownership is all linked to a family member of the big family. Only those consuls in the home of the family have Right to ask about their tax situation."

Ji Tang has no expression on his face... Land ownership can be bought out, and large families can purchase properties in other places to legally avoid taxes. He declined to comment.

"If you want to raise funds quickly, you can only do business with Inadelli." Zhao Zhenzhen, who was invited by Rex to listen, opened his mouth and pointed to the point. The trading behavior between Sturm and Inadri?"

"Yes." Rex mentioned this, his face even more painful, "Gould, who visited a while ago, put forward... the request for reconciliation is to unconditionally release all the city defense soldiers, return the captured equipment and horses, and prepare for three. Thousands of undead cloth and twenty undead servants, as an apologize for offending the Bartles family."

The whole meeting room was silent.

The clerks felt that this request for apocalypse was simply unreasonable, but what Ji Tang and Zhao Zhen were thinking about was what the 20 players would make the Bartles family...

"Avoid Bartles's house and do business directly with the Inner Deli folks?" Zhao Zhenzhen said.

"This may not work, Ms. Zhao." Rex said with a sad face. "Without the Bartles family, the city defense army and the city superintendent will not allow it. All our goods will be forcibly confiscated."

Zhao Zhenzhen thought for a while, and said, "Then what if we are not selling goods, but some kind of service?" Before Rex shook her head, she added, "We don't need to worry about whether personnel will be controlled. These undead are not afraid of being imprisoned and can get out at any time."

Players must not be afraid of being restricted to personal freedom, commit suicide and return to the city...As long as they are not broken up, their equipment will not fall.

Rex was astonished. He invited Zhao Zhenzhen in. Of course he was expecting this more thoughtful undead lady to help figure out a solution, but this proposal was still difficult for him to understand: "That's it... But our undead friends, What kind of services can you provide?"

Zhao Zhenzhen smiled slightly: "If you can apply for a batch of ‘special supplies’ from Lord Yang for us, then we can organize the undead to earn enough money for Westem at Inner Deli."

Yang Qiu, who was busy designing new monster spawning points, received a request from Rex through the branding matrix. He only glanced at the list of so-called "special materials" and guessed who played the game with his knees.

"I'm really trying to test my bottom line." Yang Qiuru muttered to himself.

Zhao Zhenzhen, the "tool man", has been very honest since he went online. He is more worry-free than Ji Tang. His feelings are accumulating energy to read articles, and he just waits to seize the opportunity to make a big move...

Yang Qiu, the newly launched three thousand Huskies, must not dare to let go. As for the old players, the problem is not too big-the old players have proven themselves in the two defensive battles, whether they are fighting against the city defense army or attacking the Sokri caravan. , The players never spoiled the crops along the road, nor harassed the civilians. They are much more civilized than most of the military in this world.

As long as you don't act like "special NPCs" with hidden missions and no equipment to grab, at least for civilians, these old players are not much more dangerous than drunks who appear on the streets.

Yang Qiu weighed the pros and cons, turned his head to open the space-time rift, and went back to the earth to purchase...

Soon, a batch of "special materials" was delivered to Rex and transferred to Zhao Zhenzhen.

After getting this batch of supplies, Zhao Zhenzhen took a deep look in Tarantan's direction... To facilitate the use of her "Undead Chamber of Commerce Toolman" authority, a unified mission was released for online players who had brushed up on the reputation of the Undead Chamber of Commerce.

It’s not the first time for the players to take the mission from the "tool player". Last time, they took Ji Tang’s mission and performed their talents... and they complained about "what is this strange mission?" Come to Westham to find Zhao Zhenzhen.
