April 5th was China's traditional festival, the Qingming Festival.
After breakfast, Ouyang Shuo brought Bing'er to the cemetery to sweep the graves of his relatives. To his surprise, his aunt, Lin Jing, made a special trip from Shanghai to Jiaozhou to sweep the graves of his grandparents. The night before her aunt left Jiaozhou, the two of them had a rather deep conversation in her hotel room.
"Little Shuo, you still won't tell me your in-game ID?" Lin Jing asked angrily.
Ouyang Shuo was in a difficult position. His aunt clearly wanted to lay her cards on the table. After the system auction, Ouyang Shuo discovered that he had become more and more confident. Especially the establishment of the Alliance of Mountains and Seas, which made his influence in the game more stable.
Looking at his relatives, Ouyang Shuo's expression was complicated. He sighed and chose to believe her in the end. He said solemnly, "Aunt, I can tell you my in-game ID. But you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone, including your partner, Xie Siyun. "
"You can't even tell Siyun?"
"That's right!"
"What are you doing? Why are you being so secretive?" His aunt was a little indignant.
Ouyang Shuo couldn't help but be cautious. He said again, "Aunt, I need a clear answer."
Lin Jing was startled. Feeling Ouyang Shuo's determination, she calmed down and said, "Fine, I promise you that I won't tell anyone about your in-game ID, including Siyun. Can you tell me now? Little Shuo, if you can't give me a satisfactory answer, I'll teach you a lesson. "
Ouyang Shuo nodded. He understood his aunt's character. Just like his deceased mother, he had inherited his grandmother's good qualities. She would never go back on her word and would never go back on her word.
"Have you heard of Dayue Wuyi?" Ouyang Shuo asked.
"Of course. Who doesn't know him? He's the number one feudal lord in China. Why, are you working for him? "His aunt asked curiously.
Ouyang Shuo coughed and said calmly, "I am Dayue Wuyi."
"What?" His aunt stood up in shock and said in disbelief, "What did you say? You're Dayue Wuyi? Today isn't April Fool's Day. Don't lie to me. "
Ouyang Shuo had long since expected his aunt's reaction, and he still said calmly, "Do you think there's a need for me to lie to you about this?"
Lin Jing looked at her nephew in disbelief as if she was looking at a little monster. Seeing that Ouyang Shuo was still calm, she muttered, "No wonder, no wonder you don't want to tell me your ID. So that's how it is. Heavens, what kind of freak is this! "
Ouyang Shuo had an embarrassed expression on his face. He was truly helpless towards this Little Aunt of his. He bitterly smiled and said, "Little Aunt, I'm your nephew. How can you speak of me like this?"
"Isn't it difficult? The outside world is guessing which mysterious family's descendant Who Said Wuyi is. Who would have thought that it's actually a commoner like you. "Little Aunt was still a little excited.
Ouyang Shuo burst into laughter and said, "Nobles, generals, and ministers, do they have guts?"
Lin Jing was startled once again. She sized Ouyang Shuo up again and said in a rare tone, "Not bad. It seems that Aunty has really underestimated you before. Little Shuo, it's not by chance that you can achieve such results. "
Ouyang Shuo didn't want to be entangled on this topic, so he changed the topic and asked, "Aunty, you called me to enter this game before. Do you have any inside information?"
Sure enough, Lin Jing's attention was diverted by Ouyang Shuo's question and she explained, "Yes. Siyun and I have participated in the internal testing of this game. According to Siyun's speculation, this game should be very unusual. There are too many unreasonable and abnormal aspects. It's definitely not as simple as a game. Therefore, the studio resolutely stopped other games and fully devoted itself to this game. "
Ouyang Shuo nodded. He really admired Xie Siyun's decisiveness. Xie Siyun was able to make the correct judgment under the situation where she didn't have complete information. She was indeed worthy of being the Head of the second largest mercenary group in China.
"As for this game, I've learned a little bit about it by chance. I can't say anything else, but at least your choice is correct. Also, I want to remind you that the currency exchange platform has been opened, right? If your studio isn't short of money, try not to sell those hard-earned gold coins. "Ouyang Shuo tactfully reminded.
With a puzzled expression, Lin Jing curiously asked, "Why? Isn't our studio's purpose in playing games to earn money by selling game coins? Little Shuo, since you're able to achieve such results in the game, do you know any inside information? Quickly tell Aunty. "
Ouyang Shuo shook his head and said, "I've said everything I can. It's up to your studio whether you want to listen to my advice or not. As for the other information, Aunty, you don't need to ask. I won't tell you even if you ask. There's no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world. If you don't pay attention, you might lose everything. For safety's sake, whether it's in the game or in real life, it's better for us to contact each other less. Let's wait for the right time! "
Lin Jing looked at Ouyang Shuo as though she was looking at a stranger. She couldn't imagine when a boy who used to be so innocent had become so mature and could say such words. She seemed to see Xie Siyun's shadow in Ouyang Shuo.
"What do you mean by the right time?" Lin Jing couldn't help but curiously ask.
Ouyang Shuo shook his head again and said, "Buddha said, I can't say it. I can't say it."
Lin Jing dispiritedly gave up on pestering Ouyang Shuo and helplessly said, "Alright. Since you're so insistent, then you must have your own difficulties. Aunty won't force you. Knowing that you're doing so well in the game, Aunty is relieved. As for your suggestion, I'll consider it when I get back. "
"Thank you for your understanding, Aunty," Ouyang Shuo said with a gratified expression.
"Alright, I can't stay in Jiaozhou for long. I'll fly back to Shanghai early tomorrow morning. You should also rest early! "His aunt finally said.
"Alright. Rest early, Aunty. Good night!" Ouyang Shuo got up and bid his farewell.
"Good night!"
After leaving the hotel, Ouyang Shuo didn't take a taxi home but chose to walk instead. In any case, the hotel wasn't far from the Heavenly Court District. Walking on the busy street, Ouyang Shuo looked pensive as he looked at the colorful and bustling night scene. After coming to a showdown with his aunt, his heart suddenly felt a lot more relaxed as though a heavy shackle had been removed. It was really tiring to guard such an important secret alone.
During this period of time, there was a storm brewing in the game, and it wasn't calm in real life either.
The news of Song Wen purchasing land according to Ouyang Shuo's method was first known by the Song Consortium's ally, the Ruan Consortium. Ruan Ping quickly followed the method and successfully purchased a Level 3 Village. Following that, the news spread like wildfire, quickly spreading through the circle of medium-sized forces.
In an instant, there was a wave of land purchases in the game. Every day, there would be so-called lucky people who became billionaires overnight, creating one legend after another that became rich overnight. Among these people, there were naturally those who couldn't bear to be left out and took the initiative to show off on the forums or even the mainstream media.
Just like that, news of consortiums purchasing gaming territories at high prices kept coming out, pushing the game "Earth On Le" to the forefront. The people were all curious about what kind of magic this game had to be able to make these financial groups invest so much money into it.
Ordinary people were just there to watch the excitement. At most, there were those who were curious or ambitious who used this as an excuse to join the army of the game. As for the medium-sized forces and countless small forces who didn't have insider information, they couldn't sit still. They racked their brains to find out the truth behind the matter.
In a society like China, the entire society was like a big net, and the relationships between the forces were complicated. With the intention to find out, the secret information could no longer be hidden, and it spread to the small forces in advance. This further intensified the wave of land purchases in the game.
Such a large scale movement finally alerted the people. Some people with a keen sense of smell questioned the federal government, demanding that they step forward and give everyone an explanation.
At this point, the federal government could only speed up the immigration preparations and do a good job of public relations. As for the so-called explanation, that naturally didn't exist. The government publicly announced that the purchase of land in the game was entirely a business activity of the enterprises, and the federal government wouldn't interfere.
Ouyang Shuo didn't expect that he would inadvertently cause such a chain reaction, and he didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse.
It was already nine o 'clock at night when he returned home, and Bing'er was still awake. The little girl had been listless the entire day, and couldn't lift her spirits at all. Only when she saw her aunt did she feel a little happy. Ouyang Shuo knew that Bing'er was a thoughtful child. On a day like today, she must be missing her parents.
After coaxing Bing'er to sleep, it was already ten o 'clock at night. Ouyang Shuo quickly washed up and logged into the game. In the game, it was also the Tomb-Sweeping Day. Early in the morning, the military office had already gone to the cemetery to sweep the graves of the fallen soldiers on behalf of Lord Ouyang Shuo.
At three o 'clock in the afternoon, the mayor of Pool Town, Zhao Dexian, sent someone to report that when the herb farmers went out to collect herbs, they found a large wild tea garden on the mountain to the south. According to the herb farmer's description, the back of the leaves of the tea tree were covered with white hairs, which should be the famous Baihao tea in Guangxi.
Ouyang Shuo was shocked. This Baihao tea would still be very famous even in modern society. With this, the basic building of a Level 3 town would finally have a tea garden.
Such a tea tree needed to grow on the high mountains, between the clouds. Therefore, Ouyang Shuo didn't consider transplanting it, but ordered Zhao Dexian to personally bring professional tea farmers to inspect it. If the situation was true, and it was really Baihao tea, then they would build a tea garden in the mountains.
