I have a bunch of players on Earth



872 Chapter 1,000: Capital Trap…

“These things aren’t free, right?”

After analyzing the motive points, Cindy quickly thought of the key point. were these large amounts of ingredients and entertainment facilities free of charge?

This time, the clown didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he remained silent for about ten seconds, only then did he slowly put on a smile. “They’re not free, but the price is very small. Here, one point can be exchanged for a few cases of premium beer and several hundred catties of ingredients. One point can make you happy in the town for an entire day. It’s an extremely cost-effective…”. “…”

“Is that so?”Cindy coldly interrupted him. “But I heard that outside, one point can be exchanged for millions of dollars!”

The Clown:”…”

Cindy: “You guys use the resources in the real world and use the environmental constraints to guide the citizens to exchange their points for the resources in the real world with you. Isn’t this the idea of making the D ball assets cash out here?”

As soon as he said this, the smile on the Clown’s face gradually disappeared, and his eyes turned cold.

He did not expect that a small reporter could actually see through their plans so quickly… …

Indeed, all these unnecessary facilities and the building of homes were all a pretense, and monetising assets was the real purpose.

According to the rules of the Sea of stars, the city lords of every city had a starting capital, but this capital was subject to the supervision of intelligence. It could only be used for the construction of the city, and could not be directly stuffed into their pockets, this restriction prevented the city lords of Myst from quickly giving the children of the capitalist families a certain early advantage through the privileges of the city lords.

This also allowed the capitalists to have tens of thousands of dollars in D ball, but it would not be of any use here, because any assets on D ball, whether it was real estate or banknotes, were worthless here.

So, Myst thought of this idea.

Using the D ball materials to exchange for points.

Of course, this exchange must make the citizens feel that it was worth it, how to make them feel that it was worth it? That must give them the illusion that it was worth it.

A material, in different environments, the value was different. For example, a bottle of mineral water, in the ordinary country, was the price of 0.5 federal dollars, but in water-scarce countries such as the desert location, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the value of a bottle of mineral water would increase by more than 10 times. In some remote places, a bowl of egg-fried rice would sometimes cost 40 to 50 dollars. Moreover, it was hard to eat, and the amount was small. However, would you buy it?

This principle could also be applied here.

As a newly built city, there was nothing except for a few mines. There was no hot food, no good wine, and nothing else. The points earned from this could only be used for training and improving oneself, at this time, the ingredients shipped to planet d could tempt the citizens who lacked resources to spend irrationally.

Moreover, Mister deliberately created a sense of cost-effectiveness. He used the city’s public funds to build a small city with a decent environment, which made people feel sincere. Then, he blurred the concept of consumption. One point could be exchanged for a whole day of leisure here, if you are a absentee worker, you can earn at least five or six points a day, which will give you the feeling that it seems to be a good deal.

“Mrs. Cindy… . The clown forced a smile and said, “You have to understand that everything you see now has a cost. This small city that can make them forget about their hard work and be happy has spent a total of tens of millions of points. It’s true that as you said, a single point can be exchanged for a resource of millions of dollars on the D Sphere, but this place is different. Just like the dishes in a five-star restaurant, the price of the ingredients is the same, but why can it be sold at such an expensive price? “That’s because it has other costs. Using publicity and advertising to build a brand is a cost. The restaurant’s infrastructure is a cost. The salary of a senior chef is also a cost. Under a series of costs, the price of a dish will be much higher than the price of an ordinary dish. It’s the same here. Every brick and tile in this city is bought with real money!”

“Ha…”Cindy immediately sneered. “You say that as if the cost is yours…”

The Clown:”…”

Cindy: “I remember that the initial capital of this city belongs to the city, right? The city lord only has the right to manage it, right? “You used public property to make these so-called infrastructure. Is it appropriate for you to use them as the cost of raising the price of your own goods?”

The other party was completely confusing the concept. She should have thought from the beginning that MISST had never changed. He had always represented the interests of that group of capitalists!

The goal was also very clear. It was to use the public property of the city and the conditions here to allow the capitalists to monetize their assets in Ball D!

To put it bluntly, it was just to help the capitalists transfer their assets. When the capitalists exchanged the resources in Ball D from the hands of ordinary citizens for sufficient legal points, they would have a higher starting point than ordinary people!

Mister had never changed. He had always been a capitalist. Whether it was when he was the leader or when he was the city lord, this place had never been a free city. It was a huge net that was organized by the capital forces… …

Cindy looked at the group of people who were drunk to death. Her eyes were filled with complicated emotions. These happy people seemed to have no idea that the capital that she had worked so hard to earn was being exploited by the capitalist forces?

Did they know that a fair starting point, a brand new platform, was being used by others to widen the gap?

Could it be that no one could tell?

Thinking of this, she no longer paid any attention to the clown. Instead, she walked into the city with doubt, wanting to know what the situation in the fifth city was like.

The clown behind her no longer followed. As he looked at the other party’s back, his eyes flashed with a cold light. The human body was extremely fragile here. No one would care if she created a small accident that prevented her from returning. After all, even the famous journalist died in the fourth city, Elizabeth is just a trifling fame just… . .

——– —

Cindy walked on the road, carefully looking at the faces of these cheerful people. The fifth city belonged to the Otteran civilization, a pure arcane civilization, with up to five racial genomes, the largest number of categories in all the cities, among them, the one with the most choices was a blue giant named Delaney.

According to the intelligence, this race was very sensitive to energy, and its body could enhance its combat ability by carrying the energy of nature through its unique talent. It was very suitable for all kinds of arcane equipment, and was an excellent magic warrior.

The combat-type genomes were naturally the most popular. After all, many people, especially men, wanted to have a strong combat ability!

Through face recognition, Cindy made a new discovery. She discovered that most of the people here were Indian… …

Although the race had changed a lot, the outline of the people had not changed. The white people had chosen Delaney to have light blue skin, and their facial features were more three-dimensional. The Asian people had more delicate faces, and the color of their skin was also sky blue. Most of the non-aryans were dark blue, similar to Molan. Moreover, their bodies were generally shorter, and they looked more like the original d-ball people. They were simply three people wearing avatar makeup… …

“Young Lady, do you have any questions?”

Just as Cindy was surprised by this discovery, a gentle voice rang out clearly in her ears on the noisy street.

Cindy turned around and was momentarily stunned. She saw an old man who looked like a human.

Of course… … What made her stunned was not the other party’s human appearance. This was because she had seen many city residents who looked like humans in the past. Other than the first city in the five major cities, the developers of other cities’technology were still the main ones, most of the people who chose this profession were Huazhong people like the old man in front of her.

What stunned her was his identity!

Yes, she recognized him at a glance. He was a famous person in America, a legendary figure who had built a huge foundation in America with an Asian identity.

“Mr. Huo?”
