Chapter 819: Chapter 778: You would steal this money too?!
Yi and Yelang had a combined fanbase of several million followers.
Although being purely anchors ant that the number of fans was a bit inflated—containing a large number of casual viewers—having a dedicated fanbase wasn’t a problem for them.
So quickly, the fans formulated a rescue plan—
[Prison Break Action]!
Operation organizer: [Successful Weight Loss Winter lon].
This was quite outrageous because the organizer herself didn’t have an invitation to “Chang’an” and could only organize the operation remotely from outside the ga.
It was because she had used her wish on “weight loss.”
—Winter lon first wished for [a perfect body] from the Divine Dragon but was accused of being too greedy, so she opted for [slimming down].
The Divine Dragon granted her wish.
So she changed her ID from [Weight Loss Winter lon] to [Successful Weight Loss Winter lon].
As for her actual weight in reality, of course, not even a single pound was lost.
When her fellow live-strears teased her, she confidently retorted: “Our body, given by our parents, should not be easily abandoned!”
Logically, organizing a [Prison Break Action] should be done in person for the best effect, but no one in the fan group could take charge and lead.
In the end, Winter lon was elected as the organizer of this operation because of her highest popularity among all room administrators—after all, when Lincoln was live-streaming, she also beca well-known to the community.
Winter lon was not stage-frightened and imdiately ca up with a “three-step” action plan:
First step: Gather people! Get as many as possible.
Second step: Obtain weapons! Without weaponry, any number of people will be no match for the enemy.
Third step: Break the prison fully ard!
Everyone agreed with the first point, and they quickly started counting how many people in each fan group could enter “Chang’an”—both Yi and Yelang had several fan groups.
But for the second point, everyone had a question: “Where do we get weapons?”
“Yelang was arrested and put in jail just because he tried to get himself a weapon. Are we going to follow in his footsteps?”
“He was just stupid! Why did he need to rob the governnt soldiers?” Winter lon had no rcy, “I rember that during the Tang Dynasty, only armor, strong crossbows, and long spears were prohibited, but short-range weapons like knives, swords, and short spears were allowed. Why not just rob ordinary people?”
“If that doesn’t work, go to the blacksmith’s shop and forge weapons right there. There should be at least one basic channel for players to acquire weapons in Cloud Dream.”
“Let’s go with the blacksmith.” One of the group friends who was invited by Yi to visit the brothel but ended up in jail together suggested, “I’ve only seen three ‘ordinary people’ with weapons, and each of them could fight 10 people at once!”
“Ordinary people are that powerful?” The group friends were shocked.
Most players they had encountered were at the lower levels, with only basic unard fighting skills. They generally relied on their physical strength alone, so players weren’t afraid of them.
Even when facing governnt soldiers, they believed they only lost because of their lack of numbers and equipnt.
Many people heard about the existence of “experts” for the first ti.
“Anyway, if you see soone carrying a sword or a knife, it’s best to avoid them.” Snow-white Boobie chid in.
He was still in jail and felt a lingering pain in his head.
He couldn’t help but feel that if it weren’t for the system’s protection, that stick weapon would have shattered his skull…
“Fine, let’s go and forge weapons at the blacksmith’s.” Winter lon agreed readily.
Soon, a group friend sent a ssage: “The blacksmith can forge knives and swords, but it costs 10 guan (currency) each. If you provide the materials, the price can be reduced by half.”
“So the question is, where does the money co from?”
This question imdiately drew contempt from the group friends:
“Bullshit, of course, it’s by using our own diligent hands! Go and rob!”
“Is the [First Generation Player Commorative Badge] just for display? Cloud Dream gave you [Palm Extre Sports], not for you to entertain your wife in bed, but for you to be a master thief in the streets!”
“??? Can it really be done? Why didn’t I think of that? Let try it now!”
“… Are you trying to steal money on the streets of Chang’an City? Or are you trying your wife in bed?”
“I’ll try both, I’ll try both.”
…
As always, players’ chats were unreliable, and discussions quickly shifted to strange topics.
But the players in Chang’an City took imdiate action.
*
As is well known: the more people on the streets, the easier it is to steal, and the more wealthy people there are, the greater the gains after success.
That’s why [East Market] and [Health Square] are still the most popular places for theft.
In the East Market, Thomas was holding a high-quality silk dress and walking among the NPCs, not showing his player identity at all.
Initially, he just wanted to fit in, so he specifically went back to the tropolis to get himself a few sets of ancient clothing, ranging from the most basic coarse linen clothes worn by the common people to the most luxurious silk outfits, all of which were prepared.
Even thinking that he might need it in the future — like if he needed to give soone clothes as a gift, he also bought several sets of won’s clothes.
Anyway, he didn’t plan to compete for the [Golden Key], so he had a lot of virtual currencies left in the tropolis that he couldn’t find a use for.
But when he passed by a clothing shop nad “Plum Blossom Square,” he looked at the won’s clothing inside and suddenly had an idea —
“Can I resell clothes from the tropolis to Chang’an City and make a profit from the price difference?”
Normally, nothing can be brought in from outside, and many players have already tested this.
But clothes are different!
When everyone enters Chang’an City, they wear their own clothes!
So, just put on another set of won’s clothes on the outside, take them off after entering Chang’an city, and then you can sell them directly, right?
Even if the clothing shops don’t accept them, they can be pawned at pawnshops.
Converting the currency of the tropolis into the silver and copper coins of Chang’an city would be a huge profit!
As for this behavior being sowhat shaful…
Making money, no sha!
Thomas decisively embarked on the path of reselling won’s clothing.
And the progress of things turned out to be as he expected: even the famous Plum Blossom Square couldn’t refuse the exquisitely gorgeous modified ancient costus in his hands and even gave him a whole string of money.
Thomas was overjoyed and imdiately started doing the reselling business between the two realms.
He changed won’s clothes while he couldn’t help thinking, “Traveling between the two realms is the biggest cheat itself!”
It’s just that each ti they have to wear it, it greatly limits their capacity.
At this mont, the dress he held in his arms was already his fifth trip.
Not only was he carrying a string of money around his waist, but his purse also had six taels of silver — the valuation of each piece of clothing was not fixed, and even varied from shop to shop.
However, the price given by clothing stores is always much higher than pawnshops.
Thomas, of course, wouldn’t take them to the pawnshop, because these clothes were only worn once, and they are undoubtedly “like new”. It would be a big loss to take them to the pawnshop.
Once again at the door of Plum Blossom Square, he was about to go in when he was bumped into by a player.
That person didn’t even apologize and quickly walked away.
Thomas frowned: This person has terrible manners!
But considering the value of ti, he gave up going after him for an argunt and instead went into the clothing store to continue selling clothes.
Neither Thomas nor the Plum Blossom Square girl had any trouble, and the transaction was completed quickly.
Thomas took the two taels of silver and cheerfully tossed them in his hand as he left the store, reaching for his waist to put the money in his purse only when he got outside.
But his hand ca up empty.
“?”
His face changed dramatically, and he refused to believe it as he felt around a few more tis before stiffly lowering his head to look —
There was nothing left at his waist.
The purse that had been hanging there had long since vanished without a trace.
The next mont, he suddenly looked up, glaring in the direction where the “rude” player had disappeared, his eyes seeming to spit fire!
“Damn it! That’s the money I earned despite cross-dressing!”
“You steal this money too?! Have you no conscience?!”
