Don't Interrupt My Immortal Cultivation

Lin Wen's intention was simple, he just wanted to replicate a legendary private server.

Back in the day, the game "Legend" was popular nationwide. However, due to some major mishaps, players were dissatisfied with the official server. Coincidentally, the source code of a game developed by a Korean company was leaked, leading to the rapid rise of private servers, which quickly replaced the official server. Even today, it is common to see advertisements claiming "If you're my brother, come and cut me with a big sword" everywhere.

This shows the strong vitality of the game.

After observing the Blood Moon Legend for a while, Lin Wen discovered that it was essentially a low-quality version of "Legend," even worse than the earliest versions, but it was already taking shape.

The fact that this game became popular indicated that the taste of the audience had not fundamentally changed. No matter where humans go, they enjoy wielding big swords and fighting with their brothers.

So, the next step was to obtain the source code, set up a private server, and advertise it everywhere with the slogan "One hit, 999 damage."

Lin Wen arrived at the Network Technology Department, where his buddies, who had already received the news, were anxiously waiting at the door. They looked nervous, constantly adjusting their clothes and collars, as if they couldn't stand upright without doing so.

As soon as they saw Lin Wen, although they were surprised that the local highest-ranking official was so young, they instinctively bowed and greeted him in unison with an unsteady voice, "Hello, Sheriff Lin."

Lin Wen smiled and said, "No need to be nervous. Fang Weiwei, give them some gifts as a reward for their hard work."

Fang Weiwei handed each of them a beautifully packaged box. This was the first time these young men had received such a beautiful gift from a female secretary. They blushed and became flustered.

Then Fang Weiwei brought a large bag of fruits and smiled, saying, "You guys often stay up late, so have some fruits."

This greatly moved them. One chubby guy even started crying. While wiping his tears, he said, "Sob, no one has ever taken care of me in my whole life. If Xiaoxi had just a fraction of this, I..."

Lin Wen was very familiar with this kind of sentiment. He had been in a similar situation for a period of time. Because he insisted on his belief in cultivating immortality and refused to waver, his family cut off all financial support, even his tuition fees.

But in order to delve deeper into the essence of this world of cultivation, Lin Wen worked part-time to support himself and pay for his tuition fees. At that time, he was the most famous "stinky silk" in the school. He even carried a bag to pick up trash in the class of a top physicist at the Institute of Science, which greatly embarrassed the school.

Although the school later provided some assistance, most of it went towards paying the tuition fees.

Lin Wen spent his four years of university in a life of poverty. It wasn't until he entered graduate school that his family compromised and resumed their financial support. It was then that his classmates suddenly realized that this guy, who had been poor for four years and only had three sets of clothes, ate steamed buns and vegetables with cold water every day, was actually a super rich person.

Because of this unforgettable experience, Lin Wen understood the sentiment of these young men very well. He patted their shoulders and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous. Once you provide me with your study materials, we will be good friends."

These friendly and familiar words quickly melted the barrier between them. Lin Wen had them set up the server, debug the server-side, open the developer interface, and then carefully study the most popular game in the empire, Blood Moon Legend.

Blood Moon Legend only had two professions, warrior and mage, and a dozen monster maps. The only activities were killing monsters and killing players. There wasn't even a system similar to the Siege of Shabak.

It was too crude.

Originally, Lin Wen only planned to copy it, but now it seemed unnecessary.

He immediately said, "You guys should set up a private server right away, increase the experience rate to 2500%, increase the drop rate of equipment to 1000%, and add the setting of dropping equipment when killing players. Everything else remains the same, just change the name to Blue Moon Legend."

The buddies looked at each other. Some of them had played this game before, including the chubby guy.

He stammered, "B-But, won't the game end quickly like this..."

Lin Wen laughed and said, "In that case, just enlarge a monster, modify its attributes, and add 'King' to its name. Isn't it a new boss?"

"After this new boss is defeated, just enlarge another monster. Isn't it another one?"

"If you run out of options, just increase the enlargement factor. For example, if you previously enlarged a wild boar three times, now enlarge it four times and name it 'King of Kings of Wild Boars.' Then continue this pattern, and it will be endless."

The buddies looked at each other. Although they felt it was unreliable, they didn't oppose it anymore.

"Also, we need to embed an official in-game store."

"We won't sell game cards. The game will be free, and the main source of income will come from selling items such as double experience scrolls, high-level potions, and rare equipment materials in the store."

"After running for a while, you guys can keep opening new servers until there are no players left on the new servers."

At this point, Qi Mu asked, "Sheriff Lin, how do we collect money?"

"How does Blood Moon Legend collect fees?"

"They use game cards. They wholesale game cards to retailers all over the country, and players buy game cards and then charge them into the game."

"Do we have online transactions now?"

"Um, I haven't heard of it."

Lin Wen fell silent for a moment, but he immediately came up with a solution.

"You guys should embed an official bank account in the game. When players transfer money, they should include their character's name and account number as a note. After we confirm it, we will give them a special token, let's call it 'Ingot,' and they can use Ingots to buy items in the store."

"Alright, these are the main changes. Hurry up and make the modifications and start working on the server. Put the client online."

These changes were not too difficult for Qi Mu and his buddies. They all agreed in unison and immediately immersed themselves in their intense work.

But the story was far from over.

Lin Wen asked Fang Weiwei to quickly purchase servers, preferably several large ones. It wasn't just for setting up the private server; he had many other plans that required these supercomputers.And let her expand the bandwidth, let the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the Empire set up a dedicated line, directly connecting from Changshan County to the capital of Dongqin Prefecture, Danyangdu, because there is a root server of the Empire's Internet there.

Directly connecting from Changshan County to Danyangdu will greatly reduce data turnover, speed up the internet, and reduce latency.

Also, let her immediately inform Xia Xiaoxiang and urgently recruit some customer service personnel, and establish a company directly managed by Changshan County. The company's name is "Tenglibaba" and the company logo is a penguin with long orange hair.

Tenglibaba Company and the Network Technology Department of the County Government are close partners. Tenglibaba is mainly responsible for operation, sales, and revenue, while the Network Technology Department is responsible for technical development.

She is responsible for everything related to the company, including management, executives, and office buildings, and it must be done quickly, preferably within three days.

In addition, let Fang Weiwei urge Qin Luoshuang to investigate the main user group of the Empire's internet. It is an urgent matter and needs to be dealt with immediately.

So, Fang Weiwei, who was burdened with a lot of tasks, hurriedly left.

Lin Wen began to sleep soundly, with a worker typing on the keyboard behind him.

By evening, Lin Wen, who had finished his sleep, finally restored his spiritual energy to 12%, making up for the loss of sleep when he was attacked at night in Shangxi Town.

As he walked out of the room, he happened to run into Fang Weiwei, who had come to report to him.

The efficiency of Changshan County was fully demonstrated at this moment.

While Lin Wen was sleeping, Xia Xiaoxiang had already established the "Tenglibaba" company. She directly took over a wealthy person's building in Huai Town and put a logo of a penguin with long orange hair outside the building, making it look like a company.

The person in charge of Tenglibaba Company is a person named Huayun. Xia Xiaoxiang chose him, and it seems that he is her trusted subordinate. Lin Wen didn't pay much attention to it.

The company has recruited more than three hundred people in a short period of time. After Huayun learned about the specific work of the company, he urgently trained these three hundred people in customer service.

The structure of the company was quickly perfected, and Xia Xiaoxiang was in the process of selecting executives. Lin Wen said it would take three days, but she seemed to want to demonstrate her abilities. She completed it in less than a day.

When the moon was in the middle of the sky, several heavy trucks drove in from outside the town. These were large machines purchased by the Finance Department. Since cooperating with the Tongchen Group in East Qin Prefecture, such purchases have been very fast, efficient, and cheap.

The large machines will be installed in the underground computer room of the Tenglibaba company building, and the personnel from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the Empire are coordinating there.

Currently, the Empire is very short of money, and the central government also has little surplus. When they heard that Changshan County wanted to pay a high price to connect a dedicated line, they rushed over, fearing that Changshan County would change its mind in a second.

When the clock turned to two o'clock in the morning, when Lin Wen was preparing for his second sleep, Fang Weiwei brought Qin Luoshuang's investigation report again.

"How did it come so fast?" Lin Wen asked.

Fang Weiwei said, "Other companies are also investigating this content. Qin sister's special agent who collected intelligence in another place stole it."

At this moment... could it be a certain big shot in the Empire?

But this is not very important. Lin Wen quickly read through the investigation report and fell into contemplation.

Now, Lin Wen finally understood why the Empire's internet industry developed so slowly.

There is a huge development gap between different regions of the Empire. Many first-tier cities in the east have already entered the modern era of the 21st century, while most cities in the central region are still at the level of county towns in the 70s and 80s. The western region has regressed to the era of the Republic of China.

It's not just economic development, but also the level of civilization.

The order and rule of law construction in the eastern region are obviously better, at least there are few acts of privileged classes openly killing people, and exploitation is relatively civilized, mainly through dismissal and wage deductions.

The local judicial courts responsible for law enforcement are relatively fair, and the minions of the Evaluation Council are more restrained here.

The western region is relatively chaotic, with rebellion, resistance, and uprisings always present. This is also the reason why the western region has been developing slowly.

Except for powerful and well-established groups, no one is willing to invest in such places.

Changshan County has always been seen as such an existence in the eyes of major investors. Therefore, although it develops very fast, there are always few investors coming.

Coupled with the huge gap in infrastructure construction, the Empire's internet only covers the eastern region, and only a few cities in the central region have it.

In the western region, except for a few large cities, there is no trace of the internet at all.

Currently, computers are still high-tech products in the Empire. A brand new English 4 computer costs 21,000 yuan, and an English 3 computer costs 10,000 yuan.

Those who can afford personal computers are wealthy families in first-tier cities.

The internet is definitely high-tech, with an access fee of 1,200 yuan and a monthly information fee of 500 yuan, with a bandwidth of only 1 megabit.

Such high expenses are unaffordable for ordinary families.

Most people still go to internet cafes, and internet cafes are only common in first-tier cities, while they are rare in second-tier cities and the price is as high as 6 yuan per hour.

The current price in the Empire is 2 yuan for a bowl of plain noodles and 4 yuan for a chicken leg. Playing for an hour requires a chicken leg and a bowl of noodles.

Obviously, this is not affordable for poor people. At least it requires a middle-class family to be able to afford it.

The player group of Red Moon Legend is almost all young people, with an average age of around 20. The annual income of their families is at least 150,000 yuan, which is also considered middle-class in first-tier cities.

In the entire Empire, they are definitely high-income class.

That means they have capital and are more likely to become potential RMB warriors.

No, it should be Empire Yuan warriors here.

In addition to age, they perfectly match the player group of Greedy for a Month.

After a quick calculation in his mind, Lin Wen instantly came up with a better solution. He temporarily became a product manager and said the most annoying sentence for programmers: "I want to change the requirements."However, Qi Mu and his friends didn't show any special reactions, which left Lin Wen feeling a bit disappointed.

"You should add a gold coin exchange system, allowing players to cash out their gold coins."

"Allow players to trade with each other using gold coins."

"Change the drop rate of your bosses. Decrease the chance of dropping finished equipment significantly, and mainly drop some materials that are not available in the store. The equipment should also be able to be enhanced, with the enhancement mechanism modeled after the dungeon."

Lin Wen briefly explained the enhancement mechanism of the dungeon, especially the fact that the actual success rate is half of what is written on the surface, which amazed his friends.

In this way, the big shots would often explode during enhancement, leading to a high demand for materials. This would not only greatly promote trade between players, but also inevitably give rise to a large number of workers.

As long as the demand of the wealthy players is high enough, and the game's earnings exceed the internet fee, it will stimulate a large influx of ordinary players.

They would use gold coins to buy materials from ordinary players, who could then cash out their gold coins.

This is equivalent to taking money from the wealthy players and distributing it to the ordinary players. Both parties would be very happy.

This would also greatly promote the popularity of the game.

After all, no one wants to play in a cold and lonely environment.

Finally, Lin Wen advised, "Don't make the attribute gap too large. Even the top big shots will die if they are attacked by a large group of people. Remember, the battles between people are endless and the most passionate. Don't kill their enthusiasm."

In this way, this newly born Blue Moon Legend incorporated all the explosive points of the games from his previous life.

1. Free.

2. High experience and high drop rate, very satisfying.

3. Equipment can be exploded, which is in line with the current worldview of online games, even more satisfying.

4. Due to the high drop rate, it's very easy to restart after being exploded. The top equipment can be protected, but not the whole body, which is acceptable to both parties.

This novel is available on "pawread dot com".

5. Players can spend real money.

6. Gold coin recycling, can make money.

The key is that it can attract a large number of ordinary players, otherwise it would be boring if only the wealthy players are playing.

Although in his previous life, such a vulgar game was simply garbage, but now, it represents the most advanced and civilized mechanism.

Because, it invisibly narrows the wealth gap in the empire, finds a way for some ordinary people to make money, and temporarily eases some contradictions.

Of course, what Lin Wen wants to do is far more than just this.
