The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 457: One fish, three ways to eat it, the green dot in the White House (last two days of the monthly ticket draw)
The main force in the sugarcane plantations of Barbados is undoubtedly black slaves.

It’s just that under normal circumstances, players don’t have access to a large number of black slaves.

——If you rush into the plantation and run to a group of black slaves to incite them to follow you, you will most likely be turned away.

Because they knew about the existence of the slave patrols.

The slave patrols were an organization set up to prevent black slaves from escaping or revolting. They were well-informed and brutal, and anyone caught by them would suffer a bad end.

In the future, slave patrols in many southern states of the United States will evolve into police organizations, change the name of the police station, and continue to target black people.

But if they were “own” black slaves, the situation would naturally be very different.

After the brothers of the Golden Compass Chamber of Commerce experienced the daily farming life of black slaves in the 17th century, they persuaded a large number of black slaves to defect from the plantation that day.

Under the cover and containment of peripheral players, they successfully avoided the slave patrols and became a group of "free blacks."

Although half of the players of the [Black Slave Liberation Front] ran away on the road, the overall number is even greater when NPC blacks are included!

After arriving at a remote coast, the pirate brothers in the Chamber of Commerce had been waiting for a long time.

After picking up these "ownerless" "free blacks", they had to evacuate Barbados urgently.

The remaining black players in the team were unwilling to board the ship.

But the pirates tied him up on the spot without any mercy!

"Don't want to? Brother, do you think you are here as a guest?"

"Why waste time talking to a prisoner? If you're not happy, just log off. The same goes for selling a replacement AI!
——If a player is forced to log off in an unsafe environment, his body will remain in place for 3 minutes. If he is tied up, his body will be taken over by a substitute AI after logging off to avoid causing serious plot bugs.

After leaving Barbados, the ship sailed northwest around the string of Caribbean islands until it arrived at the port of San Juan, where it delivered the slaves to legitimate merchants with "non-pirate" identities in the Chamber of Commerce.

Then--

Find the rancher in Port San Juan and sell it again!
Barbados was a British colony, while Porto San Juan was a Spanish colony.

They are not subordinate to each other.

If this ship of blacks had been brought to Port Royal, also a British colony, they would have been sent back to Barbados, and at most they would have been given some bonuses and prestige.

But if it is transported to the Spanish port of San Juan, it can be sold again!
This time with the addition of NPC slaves, the revenue reached 6600 pounds!

……

There is no suspense about what happened next -

Another great rebellion of black slaves!
The black players were unwilling to follow and even wanted to report them to the farmer.

This caused a little trouble, but it did not affect the overall situation - the farmer did not have many private armed forces.

After this defection, the number of "free blacks" increased again, reaching 360!
The pirate ship took them on board again.

This time, the two pirate ships transported the black slaves to French Port-au-Prince, handed them over to the Chamber of Commerce brothers, and then sold them to French farmers.

This time the profit reached 9000 pounds!

……

After one round, the total profit was 19500 pounds!

Being happy is a superhuman "business strategy" that leads to perfect success!

No capital operation.

You can also have three ways to eat one fish!
With just one deal, the huge investment in buying a ship was recovered by nearly 40%!

At the very end, when they rescued their own people, they were able to release other black slaves as well to make up for the merits that were deducted by the Buddha.

In this way, not only can you make money, but you may also increase your merits.

After all, they only made a little money, but the black slaves gained their precious freedom!

As for whether they would be recaptured by the slave-catching team later...

This depends on personal efforts.

……

After this battle, Kai Xin became super famous!

The number of fans is rising steadily, and the popularity of the live broadcast room continues to rise.

The job of being an anchor that I did as a "part-time job during the transition period" suddenly became a career that was envied by all my classmates.

I was so happy that I looked at the lively classmates group and the phone with messages constantly coming in, and simply shook my head, pretending not to see them, and continued to pay attention to the money sharing.

The vast majority of the profits from this big business will be distributed to hundreds of thousands of shareholders.

But players who participate in the action, especially the good brothers who disguise themselves as slaves, will also receive subsidies.

All this information must be made public on the [Treasure Island] APP.

As the first large-scale project of [Treasure Island] and a demonstrative benchmark, if the board of directors elected by hundreds of thousands of people dares to make any small moves, they may be punished by these hundreds of thousands of people.

Even Xu Meng and Xiao Meng personally checked the accounts.

Therefore, many of the people on the board of directors gave up their own subsidies and focused on serving their good brothers without asking for anything in return.

Of course, the small amount of subsidies is not worth their attention...

…………

When the [Golden Compass Chamber of Commerce] calculated the subsidies for the black-skinned players and began to distribute dividends to shareholders through the email system, the impact of this no-cost business began to ferment rapidly.

He earned nearly 2 pounds in one go. According to the current "gold price" of the game, it is close to 18 pounds in reality, or Xia Yuan!
That's why the money doesn't seem like much when they have to distribute it to 68 shareholders.

In fact, this is already a huge sum of money!
Without any surprise, every player team with a ship in the game began to learn and want to follow suit!

Even black players were attracted by it and called their friends to follow suit.

That’s $25000!

Just want to learn this trick, but it's not easy.

One operational mistake could ruin one's identity and force him to become a bandit.

But even so, it still can't stop players from committing suicide.

In addition, this incident also caused far more unexpected consequences outside of the game——

Many black civil rights activists noticed this and took quick action!
……

……

Early in the morning on a weekday, in the [Black Flag] project team office.

A group of staff looked at each other.

"Should we...should do something?"

"Yes, the overseas reputation of "Sail in the Blue Sea" is about to explode! Just check it and you will see hundreds of black people cursing it."

"The positive review rate has been reduced to 81% by black players!"

"How can there be such a low rating in Dream Building? I feel so sorry for my boss!"

"I think... this can't all be blamed on the black players, it's just that these troublemakers love to stir up trouble!"

"Yeah, the game has just started, the slave uprising hasn't even started yet, and they've already started selling black people in a cycle... They've even tied up black players and sold them! Who wouldn't be furious?!"

……

The developers complained madly.

When designing a game around the Caribbean in the 17th century, it is impossible to avoid content related to black slaves.

After discussion, they felt it would be best to follow real history.

——In any case, it cannot be said to be wrong to truly reproduce history.

However, while being based on history, we also need to create romance and epic adventures to provide players with an unparalleled gaming experience.

So based on real history, we blurred some timelines and added a lot of fantasy elements, allowing players to participate in history and even create a historical direction that is completely different from reality.

The development team has laid clues and prepared introductions to events such as "Black Uprising", "Player Nation Building", "Pirate Kingdom", "Burning of London", "Death of the Queen", "Undersea Kingdom", "Bermuda Sky Island", etc.

Just wait until the players become stronger and the organization size increases to trigger these events.

The grand vision of the "Dream World" and the "Second World" has made their enthusiasm for creating the world unprecedentedly high.

With the help of smart partners and smart colleagues, their productivity can keep up with their creative passion.

So there is a constant stream of new ideas coming up every day.

Players had just begun to explore the Caribbean, and when the average level was still around 1 to 2, they had already planned updates for London and New London.

The topography, tribes, slave-hunting and anti-slave-hunting struggles of the Slave Coast of the Bight of Benin are also being produced.

Some wilder ideas even mentioned the Ming Dynasty, which was on the other side of the earth.

But now, before this glorious future even begins, the game's favorable rating has been reduced to 81%, and it will soon drop to [mostly favorable]!
"Sail in the Blue Sea" is also the first exclusive game of [Dream Building Game Platform].

Starting from this game, Dream Building Games officially bid farewell to Vapour and Softoft game boxes.

The [Black Flag] project team is determined to get off to a good start and repay the boss's appreciation.

The result was the incredible achievement of "the lowest player rating ever".

Who can stand this? !
"No, hot repair! It must be hot repair!"

"If we don't take care of these troublemakers, I'm afraid the Americans will protest and boycott our game!"

"Yeah, the federal government is just looking for a reason to target us."

……

Everyone thought that this was not going to work, and they all wanted to curb the "human trafficking" in the gaming world to avoid causing a serious public opinion storm.

——But they still underestimated the sensitivity of American black civil rights activists!
"Sailing in the Big Blue" has already caused a strong public opinion storm in the United States!

——To be more precise, this is no longer a simple disturbance, but a public opinion crisis! ——

While the Black Flag project team was frantically racking their brains to think of a strategy that could both appease the black players and not affect other players, Xu Meng, at Xiao Meng's suggestion, turned his attention to the United States.

But he was not looking at the protest of black players, but at a special new user——

"Who... would log into the game in the White House?"
