Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month.

Chapter 15 City of Destiny, Equivalent Exchange

In just a few minutes, the erhu old man deeply felt what it means to be on pins and needles.

Every rhythm floating from the suona seemed to turn into a ruthless knife, stabbing fiercely in the chest.

Heart disease must be heard!
Every note falls in an unexpected position.

at last……

When the melody was played, the old man on the erhu suddenly felt as if he had been released after serving his sentence, and his whole body relaxed.

He pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but just when he raised his head, he saw Chen Ye showing a simple and honest smile.

"Master, does it sound good?"

The corner of the Erhu old man's mouth twitched slightly, not knowing what to say.

To be able to play this suona obviously requires good musical qualifications, after all, I have experienced the difficulty of this suona.

It's not an ordinary person, and it can't play at all.

However, the sound that actually blows out is simply indescribable...

After a moment of silence, the old erhu gasped:
"Your music is truly unprecedented!"

Chen Ye smiled happily and said:
"Then master, I'll play it to you every day."

"No, no!" The old erhu smiled wryly and waved his hands again and again, "You should travel around the world and let the whole world hear your music, so that you will have a sense of accomplishment."

"Master, I am already old and my ears are not so good, so let's just let it go..."

Seeing that Chen Ye still wanted to speak, the old Erhu man picked out three coins from the iron bowl in front of him and threw them over.

"Here, here is your performance fee."

Fortunately, Chen Ye reacted quickly. The moment the coin was tossed, he closed his mouth and immediately caught it with his hand.

Three bronze-coloured coins, hard in texture, with a coppery surface.There is a sound of metal clanging between light taps.

at the same time.

In the personal interface, Chen Ye's assets changed from "0" to "3 copper coins".

"Master, didn't you give me a suona to teach me the way of music? Why do I have to pay the performance fee to listen to the music?" Chen Ye asked suspiciously.

"That's different." The erhu old man shook his head. "What I exchanged with the suona is that you will make money from music in the future, and you can share some with the old man for me to take care of you. If you don't starve to death, you will be fine."

"So, it's reasonable for me to eat your candied chestnuts, or if you can earn money to buy a house in the future and share the old man with me."

"But music performance is your professional income, and you still have to give it."

Chen Ye was dumbfounded for a while, but he didn't expect that the exchange of equal value would be so finely divided.

"Of course, if you listen to my music, you don't need to pay a performance fee. After all, listening to songs is also part of learning." The erhu old man smiled.

Seems to understand a little bit... Chen Ye gradually understood the terms of the exchange for the old man of the erhu.

In exchange for Chen Ye's future profits by imparting skills, such as exchanging suona for sugar-fried chestnuts, or other part of the income from street performances, they all have the unconditional right to share.

But the shared rights and interests will not be too much, that is, it is designated for retirement.

Such as daily living expenses, basic necessities of life, etc...

As for Chen Ye's income other than music, or other items that have nothing to do with retirement, then he does not have the right to share.

During the previous internal testing, there was no rule of equivalent exchange, should it be the setting of the new copy?

It's quite interesting...

It is worth studying a wave, maybe it will be very safe for making strategies in the future!

Chen Ye's mind was moved, and he asked, "Then Master, what would happen if the exchange was not carried out in accordance with the rules of equivalent exchange?"

The erhu old man was silent for a moment, then sighed:

"Do you know that this city has an alias, what is it called?"

"what?"

"City of Destiny!"

The erhu old man rarely showed a meaningful smile on his face, hehe said:

"Everything that hits and harvests has already been secretly marked with chips."

"In this city, if any transaction is not carried out in accordance with the rules of equivalent exchange, the chips paid in the future will be written in the future destiny..."

"As for how long it will take to repay the price, whether it is nearly a week, three months, a year, ten years, or even a lifetime, it is unknown."

"There is a saying in the City of Destiny: I would rather rob than be in debt!"

The night was completely dark, and thick dark clouds covered the sky of the city.

In the silence, Chen Ye was silent, savoring these words carefully...

During the internal testing of the game, the rules of equivalent exchange were not that complicated, and it was only trading with some NPCs for the time being.

When "Strange Era" comes to reality, all the details here are so real, as if transformed into another world.Equivalent exchange is undoubtedly an important subject that requires careful study.

"Would you like some water?"

For some reason, the old erhu picked up the ladle in the bucket and fetched a bowl of water.

But at this moment, in the darkness, the expression of the old erhu man was hidden in the shadows, which made it hard to see clearly.

Chen Ye was slightly taken aback, only to realize that he hadn't drank water for a long time.Although fried chestnuts in sugar can fill the stomach, the heat also makes the body dehydrated and the mouth dry.

He subconsciously wanted to take the water ladle and drink it up...

Suddenly.

Chen Ye seems to have remembered something!
He took a copper coin out of his pocket and tossed it over.

The erhu old man took the coin, was silent for a moment, and said with a smile:

"Sure enough, I read you right, kid, you're a quick learner!"

According to the terms of the exchange...

Although listening to the erhu old man eating Chen Ye's food, there is no need to pay for the performance.Chen Ye didn't have to pay any price to listen to the performance of the old man on the erhu.However, if you use the items of Erhu Old Man, you need to pay a price.

Ordinary people play this rule, go around and go around, and they are likely to pass out.

"Who said I need to change the water." Chen Ye smiled slightly, "For the safe water source of the Xijiang River, you only need to pay one copper coin, and then you can get the right to use it for a week."

"You can fetch as much water as you want."

"It's too bad to exchange a coin for this ladle of water of yours."

Along the way, I watched posts in [Fate Rivers and Lakes] and [Fenghua Xueyue], and some players posted information in the game.

Therefore, Chen Ye is not ignorant of this place.

The network connected to the bloody mobile phone can be said to be an important source of information and intelligence in the early stage.

Chen Ye went on to say: "I will take care of you in the future. If there is anything, we can help each other."

The erhu old man took the coin with a gratified expression on his face.

"Ah!"

"As expected of my carefully selected apprentice!"

"Sure enough, you're a fast learner!"

Chen Ye also smiled, and a strange feeling suddenly emerged in his heart.

For some reason, when he said the words "help each other", he suddenly felt that the characteristics of the [Wanderer] seemed to have undergone a round of digestion!
Although homeless people are as humble as insects and ants, they can still keep warm by hugging each other.Hold up a flat boat in the storm and go through the bumpy and bumpy worldly journey.

At this moment, he seemed to feel that something had changed in himself...

However, this change is wonderful, and it is still difficult to describe where the change is?
Chen Ye's heart was calm, he knew that tonight was finally settled.

While other players had to go through the most difficult first night, he had already found a temporarily safe place.

Just now, the test given to him by the old man of erhu has been successfully passed.

This test is not done with the intention of harming, but to make oneself better understand how to use the rules of this world.

Only those who sincerely help themselves will make such a move.

"Being vagabonds, we need more friendly help from each other..."

For some reason, it was just a characteristic, but now Chen Ye felt as if he really had a "wandering heart".

midnight.

The old erhu man built a bonfire beside him, then lay down early and fell asleep, snoring like thunder.

It's almost like a pig humming next to it.

Chen Ye didn't feel sleepy for the time being, and he was in good spirits. There was also the thunderous snoring of the Erhu old man nearby, and he couldn't fall asleep.But he can't move around now, it's safe to stay where he is.

In the middle of the night, you can't run around, and you can't blow the suona to disturb the people!

otherwise……

Not to mention attracting other "friendly" aborigines, the old Erhu man next to him might beat himself to death when he got up!

The weirdness value cannot be cleared for the time being...

Bored in every possible way, Chen Ye turned on the bloody phone again.

at this time.

He moved his eyes, and suddenly noticed that there was a special transaction message in [Strange Black Market]——

[Player 'Nine-Tailed Fox's Pen' requests to use 'Shovel' to trade with you! 】
