Chapter 492: Chapter 291 The Problem with Linhua City_1
Due to the large number of players, these players specifically established guilds to facilitate the attraction of like-minded players to play together.
When opening the current player guild list, Gong Gong was directly dazzled by it.
There are thousands of player guilds now, with so guilds having as many as a thousand mbers and others having only a few, highlighting an unequal distribution of wealth.
The philosophies of the players also differ, with so coming just to eat, while others co to promote their local specialty foods, and so simply co here for fun.
“No way around it, humans are often not rational. And it’s not just humans; we Artifact Spirits are the sa.”
...
The three gathered together to analyze the current situation and found that while Linhua City appeared prosperous, it was not easy to make a na for oneself.
The ways to make money easily had been mostly figured out by earlier people, with what’s left being either pure manual labor or requiring high technical skills.
Joining a local guild was one strategy, but joining did not an worry-free living. Even players who had just joined were only low-level staff within the guild, and even with good skills, it would be hard to stand out.
As they sifted through the posts on Ga Inn, the three discovered that Linhua City had beco a fiercely competitive place.
New players who arrived here first needed to find a guild to pay their respects to and offer up several thousand silver as a greeting gift.
After joining, they had to hand over all their recipes as the guild’s assets, but they still had to spend ti earning points to even look at the guild’s recipes.
If a newcor raised questions, they would be mocked by the veteran players. In the end, the new player had to either compromise or leave.
So player guilds had even developed to the point of hiring people to play the ga to obtain more resources, with skilled players potentially earning tens of thousands a month.
After reading these posts, Gong Gong and the others realized that Linhua City was a great place to visit occasionally, but living there permanently was likely to be very tiring.
After perusing the posts, they refrained from joining a guild and chose a location to open their own shop.
But then, an unexpected problem arose.
The shops here would not rent to them.
Although there were many vacant shops by the roadside, the NPC landlords stated that these shops had connections with various guilds and were reserved for mbers of those guilds.
Even when Gong Gong offered more money, the landlords appeared troubled and said they really could not afford to provoke those guilds.
The only place available for rent was a small space in a remote area with insufficient custor flow, yet expensive rent. However, it was still sowhere they could settle down.
But no sooner had they opened their establishnt than a second problem arose.
ns, and Gong Gong, despite her cooking skills, couldn’t attract a single custor.
The popular restaurants’ cooking skills were far inferior to Gong Gong’s, but simply by joining a good guild, they were pushed to the top tier, enjoying glory they otherwise wouldn’t deserve.
Furthermore, Gong Gong discovered that while Linhua City seed prosperous and abundant in gourt food, in reality, very little trickled down to the average person.
The price of gourt food was high, and so NPCs could only look at the dishes, weighing their purses before walking away.
