Chapter 571: Ping'an Town

In the fifth week of October, Kong Xiuying put the tenth episode of "Shang Dynasty" and the first and second episodes of "Zhou Dynasty" into the VIP space of the website; The second episode of the newly produced "Wanyang City Chronicles" was also placed in the VIP space.

The episode of "Wanyang City Chronicles" was written by Kong Xiuying herself, and her latest recruitment, the female graduate, just followed her and did detailed work. In the cartoon "Zhou Dynasty", Kong Xiuying is preparing to produce sixteen episodes. Her two former female employees have already begun to focus on the production of the "Zhou Dynasty" cartoon. The first episode of "Wanyang City Chronicles" has been well received in the free space, and there are already discussions in the website forum to cooperate in the production of other cities, city chronicle cartoons. The second episode of "Wanyang City Chronicles" has more than 100,000 subscriptions this week, and the website paid Li Xin 4,000 yuan for the manuscript this month. The subscriptions of Xu Ran's four episodes of "Xia Dynasty" and the first few episodes of ten episodes of "Shang Dynasty" have reached 3 million, and the website paid Xu Ran 780,000 yuan for the manuscript this month according to the subscription of 3 million people for ten episodes.

(10x3 million x 0.04 yuan = 1.2 million yuan, the animation website temporarily withheld 35% of the personal income tax reserve for Xu Ran, and Xu Ran should pay 1.2 million yuan x 65% = 780,000 yuan in October.) The rest of the withheld part, after a full year, by the animation website together, for him to settle the annual individual income tax. The first and second episodes of "Xia Dynasty" in which Chen Xiangxiang participated in the dubbing have been paid last month, 500,000 people/episode, and the remaining 2.5 million people/episode of this month's remuneration is 25,000 for two episodes, the third and fourth episodes of "Xia Dynasty" and the first six episodes of "Shang Dynasty", each episode is calculated according to the number of subscriptions of 3 million people, a total of 120,000 yuan, and Chen Xiangxiang received a remuneration of 145,000 yuan this month.

(Chen Xiangxiang's pre-tax income this month has exceeded the threshold of the highest deduction tax rate, and the website temporarily withholds 35% of the personal income tax reserve for Chen Xiangxiang, and pays Chen Xiangxiang 145,000 x 65% = 94,250 yuan this month.) Kong Xiuying gave two old employees who worked in her studio, and each of them received a salary of 20,000 yuan this month; and promised them that in the future, when they complete the cartoon works arranged by Kong Xiuying, they will calculate their wages according to the remuneration standard of 0.04 yuan/per person* episode and according to the number of VIP subscriptions. The newly recruited employee she is still paid according to the monthly salary of 8,000 yuan and the probationary period standard for the time being. …… On Wednesday night of the week of Yun Zhongyue, the information of individuals and people when logging into the game has changed again:: Mental force field: 3 (it turned out to be 2); Mental power: 29 (original 28); Stamina: 15; Field energy: 30 (was 20).

With a mental force field value of 3, her perception can reach a range of 1 meter around her body. Now the perceptual clarity of objects has been enhanced, and the recognition speed of the surrounding environment has also been improved compared to before. And due to the expansion of her perception range, her ability to predict the surrounding environment has also been enhanced, and she can act faster than before. By Tuesday she was able to maintain a 50-centimeter perceptual range around her body and walk a 120-metre-long passage in 40 minutes. When the mental force field value rose to 3 on Wednesday, it took 30 minutes to maintain a 1-meter perception range around the body that day, and it took 25 minutes to walk the 120-meter-long passage; When she walked through the 120-meter-long, high-level practice room for 20 minutes on Saturday, the system informed her, "You can enter the game scene of the mental force field." ”

On Sunday, Kong Xiuying's consciousness followed the moon in the clouds and entered Ping'an Town in the spiritual force field space. When Yun Zhongyue entered Ping'an Town, the display of personal information was different from before: Spiritual Force Field: 3; Mental Power: 29; Strength: 15; Stamina: 15; Field energy: 30; HP: 290.

When Yun Zhongyue entered Ping'an Town, he also received a welcome message from Ping'an Town: "Welcome the 32nd, player who has entered Ping'an Town." "Ping'an Town is a quaint town, the scope of the town, about one square kilometer, the town is surrounded by a wall, the east and west of the wall, north and south, each with a gate, each gate, there are 5 NPC guards. There are some shops in the town, there are pharmacies that sell medicines, and there are equipment stores that sell equipment; There are restaurants and teahouses; There are clothing stores, there are grocery stores; There are blacksmith shops and carpenters' shops; There are stables for renting horses, and there are kennels for renting hunting dogs; There are barracks for renting out NPC mercenaries; There are mercenary unions that issue tasks; There is also a town government. In addition, there are many houses on the street that are closed, so they should not be used yet. Kong Xiuying noticed that the houses facing the street in the town are all two-story wooden buildings; The classical atmosphere is very strong, Kong Xiuying has no research on architecture, but she believes that when Xu Ran comes here, she will be happy and study it carefully; Because although Kong Xiuying doesn't understand it, she can also see that the architectural style here is still different from the ancient architectural style of China.

What makes Kong Xiuying feel rare is that there is still a medical hall in Ping'an Town, since Yun Zhongyue didn't go in to check, Kong Xiuying doesn't know what it's for, is this here to treat the player's illness? Kong Xiuying noticed that there is no martial arts hall here, and the players who should come here don't need to practice martial arts anymore, so there is no corresponding service. Entering Ping'an Town for the first time, Yun Zhongyue walked around the town, familiarizing herself with the environment and understanding the situation; There are about a dozen players you can see along the way, and there are more NPCs; The players are busy with their own things, and some people ask Yun Zhongyue if they want to join the team, Yun Zhongyue excused himself and said that he had just arrived, and he would talk about it after he was familiar with the situation. Kong Xiuying could feel that because of the unfamiliar situation, Yun Zhongyue didn't want to team up with others casually.

There is a bulletin board in front of the town government, and there is an introduction to Ping'an Town on the bulletin board: (1) Players cannot attack others in Ping'an Town, and any attack on others will be doubled on themselves, and the attacked person will not suffer any damage. (2) Compensation for the destruction of other people's property according to the price. (3) There will be no attacks from outside the town in Heian Town. There are not many types of medicines in pharmacies, but there are several types of band-aids, 3 silver coins for large sizes, 1 silver coin for medium sizes, and 5 copper coins for small sizes. There is an antidote, there is a medicine to stop bleeding, and there is a medicine to return blood, all of which are one silver coin. There are many types of weapons in the equipment store, and there are some other items, a considerable number of which Kong Xiuying has never seen. There are not many clothing styles in the clothing shop, and the materials are from fabric to leather. The NPC mercenaries in the barracks are still the ones they have been in contact with before, but the blood volume is higher and the protective gear is better; The NPC mercenaries here have 100 HP, each deposit is one gold coin, and the daily rental fee is 5 copper coins. Yun Zhongyue walked around the town, spent 2 copper coins and bought a mask, and then came to the mercenary union; There are many tasks in the mercenary guild, including tasks taken by one person and tasks taken by teams; There are also dedicated starter quests.

Yun Zhongyue received a novice task with no time limit to complete: "With the help of the recorder, use the mental force field to draw a hologram of a certain area." "The C-level task that Yun Zhongyue received is the lowest task among the newcomer tasks. The reward for completing the quest is 2 credits. The recorder is provided by the Mercenary Guild and resembles a headset. Yun Zhongyue immediately walked out of the south gate of the town, put on a mask, and put on a recorder. What Kong Xiuying didn't expect was that in the town, the light was very abundant, and there was no problem with visibility; However, as soon as I got out of the gate, it was foggy and dimly lit, and the visibility was almost zero; When you walk out of the gate 5 meters away, you can see a blur within half a meter in front of you, and when you exceed half a meter, you can't see anything clearly; According to Kong Xiuying's opinion, this should belong, super serious fog cloud Zhongyue released his spiritual force field after walking out of the south gate of the town, and the recorder also started to open automatically.

Yun Zhongyue walked on a dirt road, originally Yun Zhongyue may need to grope for the direction of progress, but now the recorder has marked the direction of progress; Yun Zhongyue only needs to release a spiritual force field and move forward in the marked direction, and at the same time use the recorder to record the situation of the road he has passed; This way, the next time you walk, it will be more convenient. After about 50 meters, the recorder marked out a 10-meter wide range of 90 degrees to the right and the direction of the road, with two bright yellow lines and a gray blank area delimited, and the recorder prompted: "This area belongs to the range that needs to draw a hologram." ”

The moon in the clouds walks along the right side of the demarcated boundary and walks into the area that needs to be explored; The recorder synchronously displays the spiritual force field of the moon in the clouds and the situation within the coverage area, and reminds the moon in the clouds at any time whether the image clarity is up to standard. In the spiritual force field of the moon in the clouds, within the scope covered, you can see that there are flowers and plants and small trees in this area; The spiritual force field of the moon in the clouds can also enter the ground under your feet, and the depth range of 10 centimeters can also show particles with different densities, wet and soft parts, holes in the soil, roots and stems of plants, etc.; It's just the part of the soil, which is not above the ground and is reflected more clearly. For flowers and plants, the spiritual force field can show everything in the epidermis in three dimensions, and for the trunk of a tree, the spiritual force field can probably show things with a depth of 2 cm within the epidermis. When the spiritual force field begins to appear, and various substances within the scope of the spiritual force field, the recorder just begins to remind the cloud in the moon, the clarity of the manifestation is not enough, the cloud in the moon stands still, and the mental force field works hard to destroy; The holographic image displayed in the recorder gradually becomes clearer and more stable, and when the clarity reaches a certain level, the recorder reminds Yun Zhongyue: "The recording standard has been reached, whether to record." "Confirm the "record" in the cloud month. When Yun Zhongyue walked forward and walked two meters, the recorder will remind Yun Zhongyue: "I have arrived at the area that needs to be recorded." "The moon in the cloud stands, and the spiritual force field continues to scan, and then records.

Yun Zhongyue walked about 50 meters along the right side of the recorder and the marked area, and the spiritual force field energy was no longer enough to maintain the exploration range of one meter in front of the body, and retreated to the coverage range of 0.5 meters in front of the body; At this time, the depth of the spiritual force field entering the substance is also directly halved; Yun Zhongyue also wanted to continue to explore in such a state, and the recorder reminded her: "The current hologram of the mental force field detection does not meet the requirements and cannot be recorded, prompting the player to 'return to Ping'an Town and then choose to go offline'." "Yunzhongyue followed the original road, returned to Ping'an Town, and went offline.

Kong Xiuying noticed that when the spiritual force field released by Yun Zhongyue met the requirements of recording holograms in the recorder, her mental force field and the clarity of her perception of the surrounding environment were clearer than when she was walking normally; It is conceivable that it will consume more mental force field energy. …… As the mental strength value rose to 9, Kong Xiuying began to graze 5 sheep this week, except for the first day's grazing, which made her a little difficult, she gradually adapted to it in the following days; She also grazes sheep on meadows that she chooses and is close to the bushes; There were no cases of sheep being injured by wolves this week. On Sunday of this week, when Kong Xiuying logged into the game, her personal information changed again: mental power: 9; Strength: 6; Stamina: 9 (was 8); HP: 90.

As of this weekend (that is, November 1st), Kong Xiuying's personal game currency has accumulated: 1 gold coin, 8 silver coins and 5 bronze coins. …… On the night of the fifth week of October, Xu Ran continued to send out spiritual stabbing in the spiritual stabbing practice room and practicing in a static state; On Monday night, after 4 minutes of spiritual power condensation, he could launch a spirit thorn, and by Sunday night, he could already launch a spirit thorn in about 30 seconds. Xu Ran consulted the boss about what state and practice dynamics are appropriate; The boss told him that normally, within 10 seconds, when he can send out a spirit stab, he can practice and send out a spirit stab dynamically. Xu Ran felt that this week, the time to launch the spirit thorn could drop from 4 minutes to half a minute, and it should be his body that was slowly able to adapt to the process of launching the spirit thorn; The method of emitting the spiritual thorn has been engraved in my mind, and the rest is to have a good run-in with my body.

Xu Ran was still working in the blacksmith shop of the dream game this week; Due to the short stay in the spiritual thorn practice room at night, after he finished practicing the spiritual thorn, he continued to go to the pasture to herd sheep, and with his mental power value dropped from 11 to 10, he could still herd 6 sheep. He now forges 7 blanks and is fully competent; As for herding 6 sheep, it was even more relaxing. When I entered the game on Friday afternoon, Xu Ran's personal information changed again: mental power 11; Strength: 15 (was 14); Stamina: 14; HP: 110. As of Sunday (that is, November 1), Xu Ran's personal game currency has accumulated: 12 gold coins, 9 silver coins and 7 bronze coins. The script of Xu Ran's cartoon "Spring and Autumn" was sent to Kong Xiuying after it was partially written this week. This week, Li Xin completed the script of the cartoon script of "Wanyang City Chronicles" from the Western Zhou Dynasty and sent it to Kong Xiuying.

In the script, he still focused on describing the development and changes of the city's municipal administration and scale, the clothing, food, housing and transportation of the local people, and the scientific and technological achievements of this era.
