Chapter 244 Birds of a feather flock together?
For a woman , the red book issued by the Civil Affairs Bureau is as lethal as a nuclear bomb.
As for the question of why such a smart and outstanding woman would fall in love with Long Aotian... not only Xu Ercong would sometimes think about it, even Xu Xiaofan, the God of Death, would occasionally gossip about it.
The final conclusion may be that "fools have good luck".
If it weren't for the help of the female secretary, the players in the zombie camp would definitely not be a match for the combined forces of Xu Ercong and Bai Xiaosheng, and the zombie camp would definitely be at the bottom of the list.
But things are unpredictable, and not every smart person will win the final victory every time.
On the second day after the zombie camp entered the Central Plains, Long Aotian purchased a dozen large teleportation scrolls and teleported all the remaining zombies from Oceania over.
The battle line on the Zhongzhou continent continued to lengthen, and war broke out everywhere.
At the same time, Long Aotian continued to consume mall points, redeeming them for a variety of powerful props to join the battle, and even bought the expensive disposable undead servants in the points mall.
Long Aotian bought all of these limited-edition undead servants in one go, spending more than 200,000 points.
Xu Ercong was a step too slow and failed to grab the goods!
These are all high-level undead servants, all of them are high-level second-level undead servants with extremely high combat power! They can easily change the battlefield situation on several fronts!
According to the secretary's suggestion, Long Aotian purchased limited-edition items from the points mall, raised the prices to buy the mall points from players across the server, and made various promises to appease the players in the zombie camp.
"Although Brother Long is not very smart, he is indeed a man! He always keeps his word!"
"Brother Xinlong, fight Brother Cong! Go, go, go!"
The zombie camp's offensive became more and more fierce. Even after Bai Xiaosheng's undead camp joined the battlefield, they were unable to stop the zombie camp from continuing to expand their advantage.
Under the planning and arrangement of the female secretary, the battle between the three camps gradually turned into a battle of money.
…
It is the third day before the end of the faction war.
"Notify the Finance Department to invest another 30 million!"
Xu Ercong's voice was already a little hoarse. In the tug-of-war over the points price these days, he had somewhat lost his mind. He was led by Long Aotian by the nose, passively accepting the increasingly high points purchase price.
Until Wang Dali sent a message: "Brother Cong, the people in the Finance Department said that we can't spend any more money, otherwise we won't have enough funds for the third expansion pack."
"According to the analysis of the marketing staff, Death God Scourge is becoming more and more popular, and more game clubs have already joined Death God Scourge."
"If nothing unexpected happens, when the third expansion is launched, these newly joined clubs will begin to compete with us for game resources, and more intense competition will break out."
"If we continue to spend money, we may not have enough money to guarantee our position in the game in future expansion packs."
Wang Dali relayed the analysis and suggestions from the marketing and finance departments, which calmed Xu Ercong down a lot.
The more famous Death Scourge becomes, the more clubs get involved. The three major clubs, because of their strong financial resources and early entry into the game, have always dominated the market and suppressed other clubs.
But this does not mean that other clubs will always be willing to be suppressed. An unknown Paradise of the Dead Club, a small company opened by a rich second-generation son, can actually develop into a giant in the circle in a short period of time through a game.
This terrifying profit and money-making ability have made many people see the huge economic benefits hidden .
As long as Xu Ercong lets down his guard, other clubs will inevitably join forces to squeeze him out of the position of leader in the minds of players. This is something Xu Ercong absolutely cannot accept.
He has invested too much energy and time in the Death Scourge. He didn't even have time to fall in love. He also invested a lot of money. It's just starting to pay off. How can he let others take away the fruits of his harvest?
"I see."
Xu Ercong took a deep breath and suddenly woke up. He realized that he had been a little drunk these days.
It was all because the game atmosphere of Death Scourge was too real, which made him want to compete with Long Aotian for the championship at all costs. Being guided by such irrational emotions was not a good sign.
Fortunately, Xu Ercong woke up in time and laughed at himself: "I really don't know what kind of person Long Aotian is. After being with him for a long time, I feel that my IQ has dropped."
"No, his IQ is not that low. I almost fell for his traps."
Xu Ercong felt that he had to change his opinion of Long Aotian. He didn't expect that this rough man would sometimes use his brain.
"Where's Bai Xiaosheng? What does he say?"
Xu Ercong asked, "How much money can he raise? Since we have joined forces, it would be unreasonable for him not to spend money."
"Brother Bo can't do anything about it."
Wang Dali sighed, "I just asked, Brother Bo can't spend any more money. After all, he is just a branch manager in the 777 Club, and his authority is limited. The 10 million he helped to spend before is already the limit. If he wants more, he has to apply for permission from higher authorities."
"Even if the application is approved, it's too late. The faction war has already ended."
Wang Dali sighed.
Although Bai Xiaosheng received great praise and appreciation from the headquarters for the successful development of the game Death Scourge, he was still a high-level employee after all.
Even if Bai Xiaosheng wanted to help Xu Ercong with all his might, he was powerless.
"How is the battle going now?"
"More than half of the thirty-seven major urban areas have fallen. All towns and villages have fallen. These zombie bastards have cut off our transportation channels."
Wang Dali said weakly: "We can't give out equipment. The zombie camp has killed a lot of ordinary human NPCs in the past few days, and their points are far more than ours. Even if we fight to the death now, I don't think we can make up for the disadvantage in camp points."
"Okay, I got it."
Xu Ercong nodded and sent a friend request to Long Aotian.
…
"Yo!"
Long Aotian heard the contact notification tone of the Godhead system, opened it and smiled with narrowed eyes: "Our Cong brother applied to add a friend! Is he going to give in?"
reject!
Must reject!
At times like this, you have to vent your anger!
Long Aotian was about to refuse, but then he stopped and told his female secretary the news.
"He probably doesn't want to continue spending money and wants to make peace."
"Add him back. If you continue to fight, it will only give others opportunities."
The female secretary agreed with Xu Ercong: "Aotian Club is just as famous as the Paradise of the Dead Club in Death God Disaster. There is no need for us to fight to the death with Xu Ercong and give other clubs a chance to take advantage of the situation."
"Since Xu Ercong has expressed his intention to make peace, we should give him a way out. This will not hurt the relationship, and we can continue to work together in the third expansion pack."
When the female secretary reached this point, she suddenly tilted her head and thought while speaking softly and quickly.
"I've been thinking about this for a long time. I think that although Aotian Club has always been an organization you organized because of playing games, it has great potential. Are you serious about marrying me when you said a few days ago? I think you can open a new game department in the company to merge with Aotian Club, use the club to focus on developing the economic potential of Death God Scourge, and learn from Xu Ercong's experience in this area. This will bring you more economic benefits. What do you think of this suggestion?"
"ah?"
Long Aotian was thinking about how to show off to Xu Ercong. He suddenly turned his head and said, "What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly."
"Ah, nothing."
The female secretary was a little disappointed. This man was really stubborn. Don't even think about expecting him to be attentive.
"Didn't I tell you that you are the one who makes the decisions about the company?"
Long Aotian was about to add Xu Ercong as a friend. Without even turning his head, he said, "Just do whatever you say. After all these years, how can I not trust you?"
"correct!"
Long Aotian suddenly turned his head and looked directly at the female secretary, saying in a very serious tone: "I am serious about marrying you."
The female secretary was stunned again.
I’m not afraid that straight men don’t understand what we say, I’m just afraid that they suddenly become gentle.
"Hey! Cong, wow, what a rare visitor, why did you suddenly think of adding me as your friend?"
Long Aotian turned his head and resumed his hateful and playful look: "Have you become soft? What did I say before! We are all on the road of society, let's wait and see who wins and who loses!"
"Why, are you going to admit defeat?"
"Don't be angry, say something! What are you looking at?"
"Come on! Call me brother, we are still good brothers, I will forgive you this time."
Long Aotian was very excited. It had always been Xu Ercong who taught him how to play. Finally, he had the chance to defeat Xu Ercong. Long Aotian would not miss this good opportunity to make fun of Xu Ercong.
But Xu Ercong didn't reply to the message, which made Long Aotian feel quite bored, as if he had punched cotton.
“Ding ding ding!”
“Ding ding ding!”
Xu Ercong looked speechlessly at the messages that kept popping up in the contact dialog box. He looked at the words that were full of Long Aotian's personal style, and he could imagine how excited Long Aotian was now.
Xu Ercong was not angry, he was just a little confused.
Can a guy with this kind of IQ beat me?
"Am I really getting stupid?"
Xu Ercong began to reflect on himself: "People who keep company with bad people will become bad people?"
"How did you suddenly become so smart?"
Xu Ercong still asked this question: "Did you eat the cover inside the cover?"
Long Aotian was unhappy: "What are you talking about! Do you also think I'm a fool?"
Do you think so too?
Xu Ercong caught the key words: "Someone is helping you think of a plan! Is Ma Ke dead?"
“It’s my wife!”
Long Aotian spoke proudly. Xu Ercong was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted: "Your secretary? When did you get married?"
“It’s almost there.”
Long Aotian chuckled and said, "Brother Cong, if I get married, how much red envelope do you plan to give me?"
"The camp champion is my bonus."
Xu Ercong said without hesitation: "This time, you win. I admit defeat."
"What do you mean I win?"
Long Aotian's eyes widened. He had never seen such a shameless person. Long Aotian shouted loudly: "It's obvious that I won! Don't cheat. The game is the game, and the red envelope is the red envelope!"
Xu Ercong no longer responded to messages. Since he had already made the decision, he would not regret it.
We must make decisions when necessary and not let the victory or defeat of the second expansion pack affect the development of more future expansion packs.
At the same time, Xu Ercong was also reflecting on himself.
He obviously underestimated Long Aotian this time. He looked down on Long Aotian from the very beginning of the camp war. He did not think more deeply or guard against whether Long Aotian would have other means, which led to the disastrous defeat in the camp war.
After this camp battle, Xu Er understood something congmingly.
Singles don't deserve to win... Bah! Don't underestimate any enemy!
