After expanding the storage pouch, Ouyang Shuo began to purchase military supplies.
He first spent 210 gold coins to purchase 210 ordinary military tents. The reason why he bought 10 extra tents was to prepare for the officers. He couldn't possibly let Shi Wansui and the others squeeze into the same tent as the ordinary soldiers. It would be too unsuitable. He then spent 50 gold coins to purchase an exquisite military tent and placed it in his storage pouch to be used as a temporary headquarters in the future.
Next was the Military Ration Pills. Ouyang Shuo spent 500 gold coins to purchase 50,000 of them, enough to support an army of 1,000 for a month. Since the Military Ration Pills were placed in the storage pouch, there was no problem of expiration. If he couldn't finish them this time, he could use them again next time. The diameter of the Military Ration Pills was about 2 centimeters. 50,000 Military Ration Pills would only take up a small corner in Ouyang Shuo's storage pouch.
After leaving the barracks, Ouyang Shuo went to the woodworking workshop.
The current woodworking workshop had changed greatly from when Ouyang Shuo first came. The area it occupied was four to five times the original. The woodworking workshop was divided into two courtyards. The front courtyard was used for reception and accommodation. The backyard was a spacious processing workshop. Over a hundred carpenters were busy making wooden oxen and horses.
Because it was already late, Ouyang Shuo didn't have the mood to look around. He directly took the compass cart from the woodworking workshop's shopkeeper, Lu Guangzhi, and stored it in his storage pouch. He then left the woodworking workshop and returned to the lord's mansion.
After returning to the lord's mansion, Ouyang Shuo went straight to the backyard and went offline.
…
In reality, it was already midsummer.
Ever since he went on a trip during the Labor Day holiday, Bing'er had become more and more clingy. Today was Sunday. Ouyang Shuo had just gotten up and washed up when Bing'er ran out of her bedroom. She was ready to go downstairs with Ouyang Shuo for a jog. Even her favorite career of sleeping in was going to be abandoned.
"Darling, why are you so active recently? Did the sun rise from the west? "Ouyang Shuo teased.
The little girl giggled and didn't say anything. She was like a proud little peacock.
Bing'er was wearing a pink floral short-sleeved T-shirt, matching it with a pair of pink cotton sweatpants, and a pair of white canvas running shoes. She looked like a beautiful sporty girl. Ever since she became familiar with Xiao Yue, Xiao Yue had been the one who helped her pick out her clothes. Compared to Ouyang Shuo's taste, it was naturally several levels higher. A girl's talent in this area was far beyond that of a man's.
Running on the green road of the residential area, the little girl attracted a lot of attention. She was simply a little star, and the residents of the residential area loved her very much. Even Ouyang Shuo was basking in the limelight, enjoying the attention that he rarely got.
When he returned home, Xiaoyue had not woken up yet. It seemed that she was catching up on sleep in her room. Although players were in a state of light sleep in the game, it wasn't comparable to true sleep. Therefore, some players, especially female players, would choose to sleep for an hour or two after logging off if they had the conditions. Lack of sleep was a woman's natural enemy.
After breakfast, Ouyang Shuo turned on his optical computer and logged into the game forums.
Over the past two days, the forum had been very lively. The focus of discussion was naturally the Zhuolu battle. Such a brand new quest system without any basic information was enough to whet the appetite of the players. Unfortunately, most of the players could only join in the fun on the forum. They didn't have the chance to participate in the quest.
On the other hand, there were adventure-type players who wanted to participate in the war by joining the players' territories. Unfortunately, the territories that were qualified to participate in the war were all the best in China. There was no lack of talents. Moreover, due to the restrictions of nobility, most lords could only bring one to two hundred people to participate in the war. There were no extra spots for adventure-type players.
Ouyang Shuo was also worried that after knowing his identity, his aunt, Lin Jing, would contact him to fight for a spot for the Snow Rose mercenary corps. If that happened, there was a risk of being exposed early.
As it turned out, Ouyang Shuo's worries were completely unnecessary. Although Lin Jing's sexual orientation was different from ordinary people, she still had a sense of propriety when dealing with people. Towards this nephew of his, Ouyang Shuo, it could be said that he loved him very much. Until now, he had not revealed any information about him to Xie Siyun.
On the forum, other than the Zhuolu battle, there was also other excitement.
The land acquisition frenzy caused by Song Wen lasted for nearly two months, and it still didn't stop. It continued to ferment. The Union Government's statement was obviously unable to quell the citizens' doubts.
Ever since the previous acquisition, the smart commoner lords had already sensed that something was amiss and began to reject the acquisition requests of consortiums or companies. Some wanted to wait for the highest price, while others wanted to wait for the fog to clear before making a decision.
The number of territories was limited. In the entire China region, the number of player territories that could survive to this day did not exceed ten thousand. As one of the two most developed regions in the Federation, in reality, there were more than ten thousand companies that could be ranked in the China region. There were more than ten thousand tycoons with personal assets of more than a hundred million.
In such a situation, there were too many wolves and not enough meat. The tension between supply and demand naturally led to violent fluctuations in the price. The medium-sized factions that had yet to succeed, as well as the smaller factions, had no choice but to raise the purchase price again and again. Previously, Song Wen had used a hundred million credits to purchase a level-three village. Song Jia had thought that it was too extravagant. Now, a level-three village was offered two hundred million credits, but no one was willing to sell it. It was really crazy.
As the price of territory continued to rise, the people's doubts about the game "Onle" grew. Moreover, this wave was no longer limited to the China region. It seemed to be sweeping across the entire world. Ouyang Shuo wanted to see how long the Federation could resist for.
To Ouyang Shuo, he naturally hoped that the Federation would announce the truth in advance. If ordinary players knew the truth of the game, no one would be silly enough to exchange their hard-earned game coins for credits. That way, they could cut off Di Chen and the rest's financial chain.
Although there was such a huge temptation, Ouyang Shuo was not prepared to stand out and do something out of the ordinary, such as announcing the truth of the game on the forum. Doing so was simply courting death. Skynet's surveillance was everywhere. Ouyang Shuo did not have the skills of a hacker to release the news without being noticed by Skynet.
No matter who it was, anyone who dared to leak the Federation's core secrets would be brutally suppressed. The Federation Government could not suppress the public opinion, but they had ways to deal with a small individual like you.
In modern society, the democratic system was extremely perfect. For example, Ouyang Shuo's suggestion to Song Wen was a normal deduction made by the players based on the basic rules of the game and the rules of business in reality. Even if Skynet was aware of such behavior, it would not do anything to Ouyang Shuo. It would fully protect his civil rights.
However, if he intentionally leaked secrets, it would cause social unrest. Then, the Federation Government would have enough reason to arrest him immediately for the crime of leaking state secrets.
So, before he found a suitable opportunity, Ouyang Shuo wouldn't act rashly.
It was already ten o 'clock in the morning when Ouyang Shuo logged out of the forum. At this time, Xiaoyue finally got up. Just like Ouyang Shuo, Xiaoyue did not escape Bing'er's teasing.
With her chubby little hand, the little girl cutely scratched her equally chubby face and said to Sun Xiaoyue with a smile, "Shameful, I'm a big lazy bug. Bing 'er has already finished her homework, and I've just woken up."
Sun Xiaoyue was not Ouyang Shuo. She was embarrassed into anger by Bing'er's words. She quickly walked over and hugged Bing'er in her arms. She pinched the little girl's face hard and said coquettishly, "Stupid girl, you even dare to mock me. See if I don't teach you a lesson, you won't be able to go to heaven. "
"Ah!" Bing'er immediately begged for mercy and said pitifully, "Wuwu ~ ~ ~ Sister, Bing'er knows she's wrong. I won't dare to call you a big lazy bum anymore."
"You still say that!" Sun Xiaoyue was so angry that she used her hand to pinch Bing'er's armpit, making the little girl giggle.
"Ah, haha, sister!!! Bing'er is really wrong. Haha, sister, let me go! "The little girl finally gave in. Armpits were Bing'er's weakness. A light pinch would make her itch.
"Hmph, at least you know what's good for you." Xiaoyue finally let go of Bing'er and walked to the bathroom in a domineering manner.
Ouyang Shuo sat on the sofa and watched the show happily.
Bing'er turned her head and saw her bad brother who was taking pleasure in her misfortune. She immediately threw herself into his arms and said unwillingly, "Brother, you're bad. You don't even know how to save your cute sister."
Ouyang Shuo laughed and knocked the little girl's head and said, "Haha, do you think sister Xiaoyue is the same as brother, who can be ridiculed by you? You have to take responsibility for your own mistakes. "
Bing'er embarrassedly buried her face in Ouyang Shuo's arms and twisted around, not saying a word.
Ouyang Shuo gently touched Bing'er's head and decided to give her a way out. He said dotingly, "Baby, tell me, what do you want to eat for lunch? Brother will make it for you."
"I want to eat sweet and sour spare ribs!" Sure enough, the little foodie immediately became spirited. She raised her head and said excitedly.
Ouyang Shuo poked her forehead and said, "Little Pixie, it's a little troublesome. Fine, brother will make sweet and sour spare ribs for you for lunch. I guarantee our little princess will be satisfied. "
Bing'er happily squinted her eyes and kissed Ouyang Shuo's face. She intimately said, "En, brother is still the best to Bing'er." Obviously, she was very happy with Ouyang Shuo's love.
"I want to eat potato braised beef brisket!" Sun Xiaoyue suddenly poked her head out from the bathroom and said loudly.
Ouyang Shuo patted his head. Damn, another foodie. He could only accept his fate and said, "Yes, sister!"
