Let's suffer a little longer, fellow Blue Star folks.

Although Yunhe and the people from the town came to take over Fangjia Village, she still had to report the details of the war.

"Well, then you should have a good rest. If there is anything you want to eat, you can just ask the chef in the restaurant to make it." Tang Yi said with a smile.

"Last time you said the squirrel mandarin fish he made was delicious, and he was so happy for a long time."

Tang Yi did not make this up.

Because Li Mu is the strongest NPC that players can currently come into contact with, and his fighting style is very cool, being able to gain Li Mu's favorability made [Lazy State Ramen] brag on the forum for a long time.

As for the past two days, the hot topic of discussion on the forum is the general trend of the next version of the game after the two wars.

Among them is the extremely long analysis post that Yu Shui posted last night.

《Prediction of the plot and update content of version 1.3》

"Let me digress first, about the basic UI system of Dawnbreak."

"I see everyone is calling on the planners to make attribute visualizations. But you might not know that when this game was first launched, there wasn't even a quest panel. The personal panel only had level, health, and stamina."

"Since the last update added a task panel, I think the planners should continue to optimize our personal panel in subsequent updates."

"In addition to the attribute visualization, I also have a suggestion, which is to display the number of Alliance Coins held in the panel. Otherwise, every time you count your assets, you have to recalculate those coins, which is really troublesome."

"Then let's get to the point. First, the story of version 1.3."

"I personally don't think it will be as exciting as versions 1.1 and 1.2. After the four major battles in the first two versions, we've fought almost every viable force in the valley and nearby."

"Not only did they kill all the low-level monsters in this large area, but they also exposed the problem of the players' insufficient strength. Add to that the hidden mechanism of corporate applications discovered by Potato and Millennium Killer."

"So I'd venture to guess that version 1.3 will just be a postscript to the storyline surrounding Fangjia Village and the Airstone Mine. At most, it'll include some introductions to other factions in subsequent versions, but there won't be any large-scale battles."

"This also gives us some time to develop. At least we can have more players like Chenlu break through to level 10 or above."

"Then in terms of content, I think the planning will also focus on the development of gathering places."

"Now that the mechanism for applying for companies has been triggered and the external crisis has been eliminated, it's time to put the trade system in place."

"After all, besides Yunhe Town, there should be many villages similar to Fangjia Village nearby. If there is no plot about them, we can only rely on trade to learn about their situation."

"Otherwise, you can't run a thousand miles just to get a map, and then run back with nothing."

"Aside from the story and the trade system, the remaining content should be a new batch of beta test spots, some new maps and new NPCs, and some new version activities."

"I won't speculate too much about these things. The number of places for the closed beta test is estimated to be 200-300. I can't guess the rest."

"The above are all of Yu Wenbobo's thoughts. If I have any new guesses, I will post them below. Everyone is welcome to discuss them."

Chapter 147: Making money, it's normal to have some small accidents

Baileys: So, does that mean the spring for us lifestyle gamers is finally coming?!

Lemon: Are you a life person?

Baileys:?? Why don’t I count it?

Sugar-roasted chestnuts are the most delicious: Is it time to start discussing the definition of lifestyle players?

Dabai: Those who don’t fight should be considered life-oriented.

Master Qingdun: To be honest, I'm more concerned about how many beta test qualifications can be released. I've been waiting for three versions. Grandpa planner, please look at me!

Master Qingtang: Planning dad, look at him!

Steamed Master: Brothers, look at them!

Maimen Yongcun: Hiss——, so planning is also a part of your Play.

Alps: To be honest, based on previous practice, the number of places this time is likely to be 200, but the possibility of releasing 300 places to make up the total of 500 people cannot be ruled out.

Phosphorus pentoxide: Actually, I have an idea. You can ask Maomao about the number of places for the internal test.

Phosphorus Pentoxide: He has expanded the player cabins before new players enter the game every time. I think he must have received some hints from Sister Keyu!

Gugu: Oh my god! That makes sense! Where's he? I didn't see him at the construction site outside the gathering place.

Lazy Ramen: He was eating noodles in the restaurant just now, but now he was called away by Sister Keyu.

Gugu: Shit! He really has inside information! I'm going to catch him! Wait for me!

Gugu's speech stopped immediately, and he must have run to find someone.

But not everyone in the forum is talking about beta test qualifications.

Soon, new comments appeared under Yu Shui’s post.

Flame Rat with Demon King: I feel that in response to the original poster's suggestion, it would be better to set up a bank in the gathering place. This will not only simplify the complicated coin system, but also promote the development of subsequent trade.

Flame Rat Demon King: Even if the planners want to simply control the economic situation of the settlement, they can do so by adjusting the interest rate...

"It's true."

Tang Yi, who was browsing the forum, nodded silently after seeing this comment.

I read the forum more often when I have nothing to do, and I can really steal a lot of good ideas.

What the Flame Rat said is right. He should indeed update the banking system in the next version.

This not only solves the dilemma of players not daring to carry money when going out, but also alleviates the pressure of insufficient alliance coins to a certain extent - just give them the money they deposited in the bank.

Even banks can issue loans to players. Not only the construction of various factories, but also the subsequent caravan trade that will be launched online requires more capital investment.

As for the loan assessment, it will be handed over to Xiaoxing when the time comes. As long as the loan is accurately made according to the player's situation, there will be no bad debts.

And unlike in reality, players can’t escape from taking out loans.

By then, in order to repay the debt, they will only work harder to make money, and then continue to borrow money, and continue to make money...

I'm super, it's perfect!

This feature must be arranged!

……

In the gathering place.

[Turn into light to protect all cats] had just walked out of the small meeting room next to the mission hall when he was grabbed by [Gugu] who suddenly jumped out.

"Tell me! What did you just say to Sister Keyu? Was it the new internal beta qualification number?"

"what?"

The cat was a little confused for a moment.

"What new number of internal testing qualifications? We're talking about the construction plan for the new factory."

"A new factory?"

Gugu looked at the cat suspiciously.

"Which player's factory is this? Why did Sister Keyu come all the way here to talk to you?"

"It's not from a player." Maomao shook her head. "It's from Engineer Song. He said he wants to build an arsenal outside the gathering place."

"Because the building's purpose is quite special, they asked me to come over and have a chat."

amount……

This time it was embarrassing.

Gugu nodded, then silently helped Maomao smooth out the wrinkles on her clothes.

"So what are your expectations for the number of closed beta test qualifications for the next version?"

"About two or three hundred."

Maomao does have some inside information about this, but it is not the kind speculated on the forum. The NPC will directly reveal the specific number to him.

Instead, once the current player's hut is unable to accommodate the new player's resurrection chamber, Xia Keyu will issue a new construction task and ask him to expand the house.

But since I didn't look for him this time, I guess that after his last major expansion, the space in the player's cabin is enough to accommodate the resurrection chambers of this batch of new players.

"Okay, see you later."

After Gugu got the news, he immediately ran away, found a place, reopened the forum and started posting.

Before the cat could take two steps in the gathering place, it was pulled away by [Phosphorus Pentoxide] again.

But this time it's serious business.

"Cat, I've chosen a location for my pharmaceutical processing plant across the river. The general design is like this. Can you see if there's anything I can improve?"

Oxygen handed over a few pieces of paper with a few crooked houses drawn on them, and she considerately marked the purpose of each house with arrows.

When seeing new business, the cat's expression instantly became enthusiastic.

"Let me see."

He took the design drawing, and after just one look, his pupils began to tremble.

"This... is your design?"

Maomao looked up at Oxygen, his tone still relatively calm, and he seemed to want to struggle.

"Yes."

Oxygen nodded as a matter of course, and in the process crushed the cat's last struggle.

"How is it? Can it be used?"

This is so useful!

So outsiders have such a big misunderstanding about us civil engineers?

How are they supposed to start work with just these few 'design drawings' that aren't much better than what an elementary school student would draw?

Building a house is not like painting a picture. If you are not satisfied, you can erase and modify it.

Once this starts, there's no turning back.

"How about you refine these design drawings?" Maomao handed the papers back.

But he still didn't want to lose this business.

So he immediately found a design drawing from his cloud, found Oxygen's avatar in the group, and clicked on private chat.

Send files

"I have a sample design here. You can draw it based on it. If you don't have any drawing skills, you can also let the AI ​​roughly draw a realistic picture of the house."

Having said that, Maomao added another sentence.

“Will AI be able to use it?”

"Yes, yes. Everyone knows how to use AI."

Oxygen nodded immediately, put away the design drawing, and opened the file that Maomao sent her while speaking.

"Then I'll come to see you next time, remember to make time for me!"

"no problem."

Seeing that the deal was barely done, Maomao showed a satisfied smile on his face.

When it comes to making money, it's normal to have some small accidents.

However, there are only two construction teams in the gathering place at present. One is the [Cat Team] which is responsible for 90% of the construction of buildings in the gathering place, and the other is the [Beautiful Legs Team] which is responsible for 90% of the construction of fortifications in the gathering place.

In addition, there are many people building factories recently, so the two construction teams have entered a busy period at the same time.

But unlike working in gathering places, there are always some unexpected problems when cooperating with players.

"No, didn't we agree to build a dome?"

"But I suddenly feel that a square top is better. It suits our current temperament better!"

“But unfortunately, it can’t be changed now.”

"Can't it be changed? Isn't it just a matter of replacing the top structure? It shouldn't be difficult."

"I******!"

"..."

A few days later, another item of precaution was added to the player's cabin.

"Excessive fighting between players is prohibited. If you need to spar with others, you can apply for a sparring venue and referee according to normal procedures."
