At first, Rorschach thought that he was playing a magical fantasy RPG, a cheap game with sword and magic characters, an adventure in another world filled with magic and lust … Cough, at the very least, an orthodox adventure in another world.
Starting from the academy, the adventure in another world, the adventure in another world, the adventure in an unknown world, at least the beginning was quite standard, but the rest was ridiculously off track.
"Losses? Signature talents? Maintenance costs? I'm already in a magical fantasy world, why am I still dealing with money? "
But soon, he realized that he was playing a business simulation, and this new God's church that could end at any moment was in a worrying situation.
Marginalized Divine Roles, marginalized territories, unpromising development projects, inexperienced superiors and unreliable colleagues, all of these gave off an aura of doom.
But other people could still find another job after they were done, and their previous failures could be used as bonus points for job hunting, but if his family business was done for, it would be terrible.
In the end, all this time, he converted a large portion of his experience into business.
A magical fantasy world filled with sword and magic became filled with the stench of money. When faith could be measured or even bought with money, the Gods had long since stepped down from their pedestals.
Excluding those overly romantic things, the rise of the magical civilization actually made traditional romance become abnormally realistic.
Even if the knights of the old generation didn't die, they would have retired from the army, and this was the era of finance and markets … Although Rorschach didn't want to admit it, individual heroism was no longer popular in this era.
[That's because your level is too low. Top-level combat strength can't be dealt with by numbers. At that time, no matter how well you manage your business, it'll be meaningless.]
"At the very least, if you want to live until you obtain top-level combat strength, the amount of resources required for growth isn't small. Not mentioning other things, in order to enter the true Myth rank, how much would it cost to buy a custom-made magic armor? "
His conversation with his younger sister didn't reach a definite consensus.
Rorschach felt that his younger sister had read too many legends, or had she interacted with too many heroic characters, which made her a little impractical.
He believed that true growth and progress should be accumulated bit by bit, breaking through bit by bit. Personal and collective progress would blossom, and now they had already developed into a large force.
Lori, on the other hand, felt that her brother was too realistic and lacking in self-confidence. He should have a more capricious development path that was more suitable for himself. For example, one year of Legend, two years of Epic, three years of Universe Soaring, and ten years of Demigod Return.
What made Rorschach feel helpless was that his view was in the minority in the Game Church. There were many people in the church who were "overly romantic" and "overly idealistic" like Isabella and Lori.
After thinking about it, Rorschach could only explain it by saying that they were all geniuses since they were young. They were all other people's children, and he was just an ordinary person who habitually calculated a little bit.
Rorschach was very helpless and realistic. He could only play this game according to everyone's rules. He used management and strategy to gradually gain benefits, accumulating small victories for big victories. It was not romantic or radical at all.
Who was right and who was wrong? There was no way to tell. It was just that the path they chose was different. There was no difference in superiority or inferiority.
To give a simple example, in the current Dimensional War, there was a battle against Evil Gods. The traditional way of playing was to think of a way to form an elite team, find the enemy's weakness, go to a certain Dimension to find the corresponding Divine Equipment and Secret Techniques, and then fight the Demon King as a hero.
"… If only it were that simple. It's great that there is only one Demon King at a time. It's great that the Divine Equipment is free. It's great that I don't have to pay for my companions' employment. The heroes in fairy tales are so happy. "
Roxia was unable to understand such romance and chivalry. His reality had always been filled with the stench of money. If he wanted to survive in the face of a powerful enemy, he would need an army and equipment. To have an army and equipment, he would need technology, industry, and manpower. He would need money and territory.
"Hello everyone, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense. This is the largest natural Thunderstrike Stone in the world. Its estimated value is about four hundred billion. I'll use this as collateral to get a loan from you."
Rorschach complained in his heart as he introduced his collateral to the "customers" on the screen.
This was the passage inside Mount Sainte. It was the most sacred place for the Ansorenne Seymour people. At the same time, it was the largest natural Thunderstrike Stone in the world.
Yes, the solution Rorschach thought of to solve the financial problem was to sell the mountain and the mine.
Establishing the country brought about a series of problems. It caused the financial income to decrease greatly. Even if the central government wanted to do something, it would involve the other regions and they would not be able to do anything.
This kind of unfavorable situation was difficult to reverse. The tribes of the wastelands who joined the alliance for the sake of reducing taxes took away the taxes that originally belonged to the Aishi People. And as the ruler in name, the Aishi People could not pursue the matter.
But there was always a bad side to everything, and there was always a good side.
There was no tax when establishing the country, but from another perspective, the entire wastelands had become the country's national property in name. In addition to the land and the underground mining area, the total assets had increased.
In the past, everyone in Mount Sainte belonged to the Eagle Tribe of Mount Sainte. Even if it was handed over to the Game Church to manage, the Aishi People only had the right to manage it and not to dispose of it.
But now, the entire Harlet Wastelands was just a country. The country's central government could naturally use its own property.
The previously ownerless property had an owner. Naturally, it could be sold or mortgaged. What was faster than selling land and resources to make money?
Mortgaging Mount Sainte was just the beginning. All the natural resources of the country were on Rorschach's list.
Would anyone stop him? Who would stop an individual from handling their own property? Who had the right to stop Rorschach and his government from handling their own property?
The situation was extremely sensitive now. Rorschach did not dare to deal with the little tricks of the Seymour people. Did the Seymour people want to fight Rorschach head-on? Many parties were in the honeymoon period of cooperation and alliance, so they would try their best to avoid conflict. As long as Rorschach was not crazy enough to steal their property, who would care about these ownerless "smelly rocks" and "rotten wood" in the wastelands?
Rorschach was very sincere. As long as the door was opened, these assets could be taken away. He could even help them mine and store them in the warehouse and wait for the other party to come and claim them.
In order to open this market and attract attention, there had to be at least a signature treasure.
"Ok, Mount Sainte is valued at 400 billion Aishi currency. The Harlet Federation will use it as collateral to borrow 200 billion from you. Those who are sincere can make a bid."
