Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 196 Getting Rich
Long Xing Tian Xia said it sincerely, but he was helpless. Although he was fortunate to be involved in the competition for power and profit between several large enterprises that controlled the management rights, as a business behavior, he must pay attention to maintaining the "honest" image in front of the public. Tian Xia is run fairly under extremely strict rules and does not allow any external interference in the process. No party has the privilege to change its data at will. Therefore, special players with certain official backgrounds such as Long Xing Tian Xia, Desert Eagle, Qiu Shui Chang Tian, Supreme Honor, and Real Madrid only know some relevant insider information at most, which does not mean that they have special permissions and can easily obtain artifacts and other top equipment and props by cheating. They mainly rely on their own efforts and do not have much advantage over other players. Otherwise, it would not be the turn of "ignorant" like me to be in the limelight. All kinds of benefits have been taken up by their "agents" long ago. The heads of several major groups must have an artifact in their hands. How can they be so shabby or even down and out like now?
What we have been thinking about before is to seize the "Princes' Order" and let the Tongxin Alliance be promoted to the first super mercenary group in "Tianxia" so that it can develop and grow better. We have never thought about selling it in exchange for benefits. Long Xing Tianxia suddenly made such a request, which really made us not know how to decide. It really posed a big problem for us.
"I know that it is really abrupt to propose the deal . I still say that if you, Ah Dai, are determined to serve as the Speaker of the Resistance Alliance, I will absolutely and unconditionally support you. You can immediately apply to give up your position and propose that you take charge of the work. I am sincere and will never use a delaying tactic of retreating to advance and pushing you to the front as a puppet. Ah Dai, Wuxia, Ah Feng, you may wish to think carefully again and see if you want to change your mind."
Afeng looked at me. I shook my head firmly at him, indicating that I would never change my mind. He turned around and looked at Xue Wuxia and Yun Wuying, "Boss Long, thank you for your kindness, but let's just forget it. Family members know their own business. Your situation is too muddy, and we have limited capabilities. We are irrelevant outsiders, so it's okay to cheer and cheer, but we can't get too deeply involved. If we don't handle it well, we will be trapped both internally and externally, attacked from all sides, and we won't be able to gain any advantage, but we may even lose our existing interests."
Long Xing Tianxia also shook his head, "But Ah Dai, your momentum is too strong. Subjective refusal can only delay for a while. In fact, you are still the strongest competitor for the position of Speaker. If the Tongxin League successfully advances to the first super mercenary group in Tianxia, your reputation will definitely be further improved. Under the deliberate instigation of Desert Eagle and Qiu Shui Chang Tian, they will definitely use you as a means to attack me and force me to step down. Moreover, I will no longer have any obvious advantage in terms of merit. Maybe the system will make the most favorable decision based on the situation. Judge, forcibly remove my position as speaker. That would be a huge blow to us, and it would be easy for the Desert Eagle and Qiu Shui Chang Tian factions to take advantage of the opportunity to grow stronger. At that time, you will still be unable to escape the fate of being the speaker, and your control over the Dark Council will be further weakened. Many things will be more constrained in handling, and the situation will be more complicated than it is now. If that happens, it is better for you and me to stage a good play of "peaceful seizure of power" while the situation is still under our control, which will make it easier for us to take the initiative and not leave too many opportunities for the Desert Eagle and Qiu Shui Chang Tian. "
Xue Wuxia nodded slightly, as if thinking about something. "So, if our Tongxin League wants to keep this 'Prince Order' and become the first super mercenary group in Tianxia, it is very likely that Ah Dai will be forced to be elected as the Speaker. And if Ah Dai has no intention of being the Speaker, we'd better give up this opportunity, transfer the 'Prince Order' to your Longteng, and do our best to help you keep the position of Speaker?"
"This is a helpless inference, but it is also in line with relevant facts. It is obtained after repeated calculations, and I am not deliberately exaggerating. Alas, proposing such a transaction request really makes me feel like a villain, as if I am forcing you and making things difficult for you. If you, Ah Dai, agree to succeed me as Speaker, many problems will be solved, and there will be no such troubles." Long Xingtianxia sighed and forced out a bitter smile. With his status and position, he personally came forward to propose such a proposal that forced us to make a choice. It was indeed a matter of losing face and dignity, and he must have felt bad in his heart.
"It happened too suddenly, and it's not something that we can decide on our own. Give us some time, let us hold a meeting to discuss it, and then we'll get back to you." Diplomatic negotiations are usually handled by Afeng, the deputy head of the delegation and foreign minister, but the final decision is made by the head of the delegation, Xue Wuxia.
"Of course I should. I'm just worried that you will apply for the mercenary group's promotion mission too soon after you win the 'Prince Order', so I'm waiting here so impatiently. I'm not in a hurry to close this deal immediately. Before there is a major change in the power structure between the existing major forces, my position as speaker will not be easily shaken by the Desert Eagle and Qiu Shui Chang Tian. You have enough time to make careful considerations. Of course, no matter what decision you make in the end, whether you agree or refuse, it is your freedom and power. It will not damage the friendly relationship between Longteng and Tongxin League. We will still be loyal and reliable allies in the future."
"Of course. Our two families have been friends for such a long time that we won't have any grudges because of this incident. We will fully consider various factors and make a careful decision based on the principle of respecting the collective will of the majority of the Tongxin Alliance members. We hope to come to a result that satisfies both you and me."
"Okay, I'm waiting for your reply, but there is one thing I want to make clear in advance. Friendship is friendship, and transaction is transaction. They must be clearly distinguished. As the first 'Prince Order' that appears in Tianxia, if you are willing to transfer it, you can naturally get the most benefit through the auction. We will not go through the auction, but directly subscribe internally. We will definitely not give too high an auction price, which will affect your income, but we will not let you sell it at too favorable a price and suffer too much loss. You can let the senior auctioneers in the exchange appraise it and assess its current value, and then negotiate the actual transfer price on this basis. You can ask for a price. Let me We can also add other conditions , such as to allow you to avoid the limit of the exchange amount of the "World Card" and directly obtain actual benefits, and not use the virtual gold coins of "World" to purchase the "Prince Order", but pay through bank transfer in reality. We can meet all these requirements, so you don't have to worry about anything. You also know that in addition to the existing 10,000 formal members of Longteng, there are many forces directly attached to us, and they are eager to expand the organization of Longteng as soon as possible. There are far more than 50,000 people who want to become one of them. Therefore, they are definitely looking forward to this "Prince Order" and will try their best to meet your transaction conditions. "
Long Xing Tianxia said goodbye and left, but left us with a difficult choice. We first informed all the core members of the news, gave everyone some time to think about it, and waited for the six of us who directly participated in the treasure hunting mission to go offline and rest. After relieving fatigue, we held a meeting to discuss. For such an important matter, the core members must first discuss an opinion, and then submit it to the member representative conference for deliberation until all members vote.
The next day, a meeting of all core members was held to discuss whether to transfer the "Prince Order". Xue Wuxia first selectively relayed the transaction reasons and transaction conditions proposed by Long Xing Tianxia. Then everyone expressed their opinions and analyzed the pros and cons of "selling" and "keeping" from multiple angles, weighing the pros and cons to make the final decision. Although some core members were interested in being promoted to the first super mercenary group of 50,000 people in "Tianxia", they were only a minority. On the premise that Xue Wuxia, Afeng and I proposed that we had no intention of seeking a higher position and tried our best to maintain the position of Speaker of Long Xing Tianxia, more than two-thirds of the core members still supported selling the "Prince Order" to Long Teng in exchange for money and other benefits based on practical interests. Tongxin League was the first to be promoted to a super mercenary group, and what it gained was a higher reputation, but it was just a false name. The station already had a super mercenary group-level meeting hall as the core, and there was no room for improvement in this regard. The biggest benefit was that the area of the station was further expanded, and 40,000 more formal players could be recruited into the group. However, our Tongxin League has always been low-key, with insufficient management experience, extensive personal connections and strong financial support. We have not been committed to expanding our power and dominating one side. We mainly focus on internal construction and development. The power directly attached to us is far less than that of powerful mercenary groups such as Longteng and Glory. Even if we really upgrade to a super mercenary group, it will be difficult to add 40,000 strong players to become formal members of the Tongxin League. They may be mixed or lag behind in development. They may not be able to play their due strength and become a real super mercenary group. In addition, we need to invest a large amount of funds in the development of the Tongxin League. Once something goes wrong, it will easily damage the interests of the Tongxin League. At the same time, a big tree attracts the wind. The Tongxin League is also wearing the hat of "public enemy of light". More formal members also mean that the Church of Light can dispatch more people to participate in the "holy war of light" against us. If the growth of our overall strength cannot catch up with the enemy, the situation we face at that time may be more dangerous than it is now.
Before, I only thought about how to try my best to win the "Prince Order", and I didn't think too much about what would happen after I was promoted to a super mercenary group. Now, after a serious discussion, there are so many problems in front of us. Not only are there benefits, but there are also greater risks. We must treat them with caution. As professional players who simply play games without any special purposes, except for a few people who have a strong desire for power, like to dominate others, and live a relatively wealthy life, most of them pursue mainly economic benefits. Joining the mercenary group and contributing their own efforts to its development and growth, becoming a powerful person, and more importantly, in order to earn more money to support their families. If the sale of the "Prince Order" will not weaken the status and influence of our Tongxin League, threaten our future development, and can be exchanged for a lucrative profit, so that every member can make a small fortune, I believe it will be something that most members are happy to promote.
I wanted to evade the responsibility of being the speaker, while Afeng wanted to get a monetary reward directly - it would be paid in cash, and would not be subject to the level limit of the "World Card". This is real income. For Afeng, who has been trying to make money and vaguely said that he would take on the responsibility of a man for some unknown reason, it is definitely a temptation that is hard to refuse. In addition to earning a little living expenses, I also wanted to take revenge on Hua|Hua|Gong|zi when I played Youxi. Anyway, Hua Mantian's Huadu had just been rebuilt after the destruction, and now it is only a small mercenary group with a scale of 100 people, which cannot be compared with our Tongxin League. It is definitely impossible to develop within at least half a year. If we miss this opportunity, we can still continue to compete for the second, third... "Prince Order" that appears, but it will be a little later. It is also possible to be promoted to a super mercenary group and maintain the advantage over Huadu. It will not have much impact.
First, it was approved by the core members' meeting, and then submitted to the member representative meeting for a vote. With an absolute majority, they agreed to give up the chance to advance and facilitate this transaction, and decided to transfer the "Prince Order" to Longteng. However, one of the secret and undisclosed prerequisites was to bypass "Tianxia" and make transfers and payments in real euros in reality, so that we can directly obtain real benefits. Of course, according to the game rules of "Tianxia", this kind of private payment in cash outside the game is an illegal transaction and is strictly prohibited. Once it is reported and verified, the evidence is conclusive and cannot be denied, and the relevant parties will be severely punished by the authorities. In serious cases, the "stolen goods" may even be directly confiscated, and it must not be done in public. Fortunately, we do not intend to divide up all the money from the sale of the "Princes' Order". We also plan to keep a part of it as the development fund of the Tongxin League. Therefore, Longteng can use part of the virtual gold coins in "Tianxia" to pay as the transaction amount to deal with official inspections, and the other part can be paid in euros and deposited into a bank account provided by Xue Wuxia in reality, and then she will transfer it to each official member of the Tongxin League according to the amount agreed in advance.
We informed Long Xing Tianxia of our decision to transfer the "Prince Order", and he quickly responded on behalf of Long Teng. We agreed on a time and immediately started price negotiations. The full-power transaction team consisting of Xue Wuxia, A Feng and other five people held consultations with Long Xing Tianxia and Bai Yunjian. We are old friends and we all have the sincerity to facilitate the transaction. We did not ask for an exorbitant price. Long Teng, as Long Xing Tianxia said, did not intend to haggle with us. Basically, we agreed to our relevant conditions. The negotiations went smoothly and the specific transaction amount and payment method were quickly agreed upon. The specific transaction process was planned and operated by professionals. Even if it was reported by a busybody, it was guaranteed that no evidence would be left to allow the official to determine that there was illegal private trading between us. The transaction was carried out openly through the Beijing City Exchange, and everything was in accordance with the rules and procedures, so that the official could not find any loopholes. They also specially invited Long Piao Piao, a reporter from Tian Media, to publicly report on the transfer of the first "Prince Order" in Tianxia to Longteng by Tongxin League. Although the actual amount of gold coins collected was a little lower as the public transaction amount, it was specially stated that it was the internal transaction price between allies, which was discounted. It was also claimed that there were other secret transaction conditions attached, which would help further deepen the cooperative relationship between Longteng and Tongxin League. Anyway, this transaction could not be concealed from others, and the transfer price was indeed too low. We might as well take the initiative to make it public, which would reduce the suspicion of others.
Most of the gold coins earned from trading were reserved for development funds, and a small part was distributed as rewards. The amount was not much, so we naturally did not take it seriously. The bulk of the money was the euros we earned in reality. Based on the time each formal member joined the Tongxin Alliance, his position, the role he played and the contribution he made, etc., after collective discussion by the core members, he could receive a corresponding amount of cash reward.
As the founder of Tongxin League and the biggest contributor to its development to today, I deservedly won the highest award - the only "Tongxin Hero Award", with a prize of 200,000 euros, which was directly deposited into my bank account, instead of being stored in the "Tianxia Card" like the 400,000 gold coins I won from gambling, which could not be converted into real currency for my direct consumption due to my level. After more than three years of hard work and suffering, I finally got the due reward and became a real millionaire, with a house, a car... a good life has begun to beckon me.
Xue Wuxia, Afeng, Yun Wuying, Xiaoyue, and Nan Feiyan participated in the task of snatching the "Prince Order", and more than 20 other members who signed up for the team competition, as well as the senior and core members of the Tongxin League, and those ordinary members who made special contributions to the development of the Tongxin League, received "Outstanding Contribution Award" and "Active Construction Award" ranging from 100,000 to 3,000 euros. Most ordinary members who had nothing to do with the acquisition of the "Prince Order" also got a share, at least 200 euros, which was regarded as a benefit distributed by the Tongxin League. As long as they firmly followed the Tongxin League, they would definitely not let them suffer.
