In the game "The Legend of the Tang Dynasty", common game fun points, such as martial arts, pks, tasks, etc., only account for a small part. Even players downloaded this game, but they don't like fighting and killing, and they can have fun.

The reason is that there is a deputy system.

With the deputy system, you can do a lot of things, and even be a professional deputy player to make money in the game to support yourself.

As an ordinary player who is determined to develop a deputy, at the beginning, he still has to fight monsters or do some tasks, and accumulate some gold coins to learn deputy skills. Of course, this process can also be solved by recharge. The first recharge is 6 yuan, and a gift of two designated deputy positions, such as mining and forging, peeling and skinning, can save a lot of time.

After learning one or two primary skills, you must start to achieve proficiency. In the primary skill stage, players can only be "apprentices" next to the "master", that is, the NPC that teaches skills. For example, the skill you learn is forging, and you have to rent an anvil and furnace at the blacksmith shop to level up.

Players at this stage have limited freedom, and they also have to pay a rental fee with a small income compared to the meager income brought by the primary skill. Therefore, in the primary deputy stage, players cannot make money or even lose money. Many players who intend to play the secondary stage are persuaded to withdraw at this stage.

If a game wants to continue, it cannot always be a pitfall. When the hard-working players survive the primary stage and reach the intermediate stage, the situation will be a little more optimistic.

As an intermediate deputy player, you can choose a market in the main city and open a store of your own. For example, a player who is majoring in forging chooses to open his own blacksmith shop in West City, Chang'an. He can come to West City, find the Xishi City Order, pay a 100-yuanbao store purchase fee, and get a store of your own.

The game uses the most advanced Unreal X-Engine Mirroring Technology. When other players see the product that the forging player is "listed" for sale, they only need to click on the product and enter an independent image. This image is the store purchased by the forging player.

The shop is divided into two yards in front and back. The front yard is the place to buy and sell goods, and the back yard is an independent studio.

At this stage, if players are diligent, they can make some money.

However, the way this forging player makes money is actually the stupidest way. Because the patterns he can learn can also be learned by others. Others can also make the things he can make. This leads to the consistency of the goods, without any difference, and eventually becomes a comparison of raw materials. Whoever has the cheaper raw materials, the cheaper price, and the more things he sells.

There are two problems like this: one is that individual players cannot compete with studios and gangs. The other is that this way of making small profits but quick turnover will eventually make the profits less than time cost, so this is not a long-term solution.

So, how can we make money quickly and steadily?

This involves going further.

Two branches appeared in the secondary profession after the intermediate level.

The first branch is to join a studio or gang and become a part of it. This is like finding a job in reality, and those who seek stability will consider it. The other branch is only chosen with a certain degree of courage, that is, to acquire top-quality drawings and do business that only you can do.

In "The Legend of the Tang Dynasty", there is a very interesting setting. That is, the Koi setting. In any thing that every game player does, killing monsters, leveling, trading, etc., will immediately generate an independent "tale". A gamer may generate countless such "tale" in a week's game. The Koi system will immediately select a "tale" to allow gamers who have this "tale" to receive relatively precious rewards.

Players who like to fight monsters may expose a top-quality equipment when fighting monsters. Players who like to do tasks may trigger a special task, while players who like secondary professions may obtain rare drawings. Even if they have a lot of character, they may buy materials in the system store, which is completely random.

This kind of drawing has a certain preciousness and irreplaceability. Its preciousness and irreplaceability are proportional to its rarity. The more precious it is, the more irreplaceable it is. The fewer drawings are, the more vice versa.

This kind of data balance work was completed by the data balance team led by Li Mu.

Usually, players will learn rare drawings by themselves. However, there are some, because the drawings require too much material and cannot handle them by themselves, or they want to make a quick money and are eager to take action. These drawings will fall into the auction house and everyone can bid.

These rare drawings are often relatively complex and cross-skill drawings.

For example, a car.

In "The Legend of the Tang Dynasty", car is a miscellaneous item and is not in any skill sequence. Cars use wood, so they need [woodworking]. The axle is [mechanical technique], and the mechanism is one of the branches of [engineering] skills. Some parts involving iron are also made of [forging] skills. It is very complicated. Unlike Zhenguan plow, the main body is [woodworking], and it is completed with a [forging] plowshare.

Miscellaneous drawings can only be obtained through special channels.

In "The Legend of the Tang Dynasty", if you want to make a car, you must first achieve the [woodworking] skill corresponding to the skill drawing. Because the car is recognized by the system and wood accounts for the largest proportion, the [woodworking] skill is the dominant skill. Then, based on the level of the drawing, such as intermediate drawings, you need the intermediate [woodworking] skill.

With the intermediate [Woodworking] skill, you can learn this drawing. But it does not mean that you can make a car. Because making a car requires intermediate [mechanical technique] to make axle, and intermediate [forging] to make parts. Although there is no limit on learning skills in "The Legend of the Tang Dynasty", players have limited energy, and few people can master more than three skills, so cooperation is inevitable.

Those who learn drawings will buy parts from people who know [mechanical skills] and [forging], and then assemble and sell them by themselves. Or simply purchase goods at the auction house, assemble them by themselves, and then sell them at a higher price.

In the game, cars are very important things. For individuals, they may not be that important, but for gangs, they are indispensable. For large gangs that "build cities" or even "build countries", they are the top priority. Gang battles, national wars, etc. all require cars to transport supplies. Without cars and relying solely on people, it is too late.

Because there are few drawings, there are even only one person. Scarcity is the most valuable, so making money is the fastest.

In the auction house of "The Legend of the Tang Dynasty", the most expensive thing is always rare drawings.

Some people may also think that if I practice [carpentry], [mechanical skills], and [forging] to the intermediate level, I make all the parts of the car. Can't I build a car even if I don't know the drawings?

Nono, think beautifully. Don’t forget that this is a game. And it is a game developed by a company that “creates happiness with care”. How can you make you so happy?

The system stipulates that without drawings, even if there are parts, you can't form a car!

However, Li Mu doesn't have to be subject to this restriction now.

As a person who travels through the entire system, he can see all drawings in the system store. In theory, he can buy every drawing, except for those with insufficient skill levels. Just like now he is an intermediate forging, he cannot buy advanced forging drawings, and he can buy all intermediate forging drawings. However, the rarer the drawings, the more expensive the price.

And since he is traveling through time now, not in the game, he does not have to be restricted by the game, and he must be able to make drawings of the car before assembling the car. He can only learn one bearing drawing of the mechanism, and switch to the existing car to achieve his goal.

But Li Mu still didn't take this trick because the price of the drawings was not much different after looking at the price. He didn't take it seriously now.

Li Mu selected a while in the system store and finally selected an intermediate drawing [Packaging Iron Cart]. This [Packaging Iron Cart] can be regarded as a treasure of small and medium-sized gangs in the game. It is cheap and has high durability. The load capacity is also sufficient for small and medium-sized gangs. What is important is that it has a wide requirement for animal power. Cattle, horses, and even camels, and the cost-effectiveness is very high.

Li Mu spent 180 stakes to buy the drawings. Since his carpentry level has reached the intermediate level, he can learn this drawing directly. But he can't make a car at the moment because he doesn't know how to do mechanical skills. He needs to practice mechanical skills to the intermediate level in order to make the bearings needed for this pack of iron plate trucks.

The setting of this bearing aroused Li Mu's interest.

When planning the game, each has its own division of labor. Li Mu is mainly responsible for the data balance part. Although he occasionally comes up with some bad marketing ideas, he does not participate in most of the settings.

For example, he didn't participate in the bearings of this car at all. But after looking at the setting of this bearing, he felt that the group responsible for the setting was still focused.

The common ball bearings today have not had many years of history. According to Chinese history, ball bearings appeared in the second half of the Qing Dynasty. In the long history before this, there was no ball bearing.

So what is the bearing of a carriage? The answer is that a type is called a wheel device. This device originated from the Qin and Han Dynasties. Because of its speed, it was originally called a "slow wheel". By the Sui and Tang Dynasties, it evolved into a fast wheel, and its texture also changed.

In the initial slow wheel era, ceramics and wood were mainly used. After it evolved into fast wheels, iron parts were gradually added to make it stronger. Nowadays, the carriages on the market are in the transition period of evolution. Most of them are slow wheels, and a small number are "fast wheels" made of ceramics and wood, so they are very easy to wear. The bearing settings given in the system are a "history of the evolution of Chinese bearings".

The bearings of the car made of primary drawings are the original slow wheels. The relatively rare drawings are the same as those on the market, becoming fast wheels of ceramic and wood textures. The intermediate carriages become fast wheels with iron parts.

Li Mu looked at the bearing settings at the back. The bearings of the advanced car have two iron rings inside the wheel axle, which is smaller on the inside, and the contact surface with the iron block on the shaft is very small, and the iron ring on the outside is slightly larger. The purpose of this is to do not contact the shaft when the car is straight, and only contact the shaft when the wheel is subjected to transverse stress (such as when turning), to reduce unnecessary friction and ensure that the wheel does not shake randomly. Both iron rings are as narrow as possible to reduce the friction area. Between the axle and the wheel, there is a large gap, and a large amount of grease can be injected to lubricate.

This is already very close to ball bearings.

When it comes to master-level bearings, they are simply ball bearings, which evolve step by step.

Li Mu was very satisfied with this setting, because he was so lucky that he could explain a little. Otherwise, if he would directly get the ball bearing, how would he explain how the ball was made? This saved him a lot of trouble step by step.

After understanding the bearing settings, Li Mu retreated from the system. His stomach was already roaring, and he secretly complained in his heart, why Wei Yingluo was so slow, just stewing beef, it was not good after how long it took.

Just when he couldn't help but curse, the fragrance of beef came over. Li Mu closed his eyes and pretended not to know, waiting for Wei Yingluo to come.

Wei Yingluo and Zhenzhu each wore a pair of thick gloves, one holding a soup basin and the other holding a rice basin and bowls. When they arrived at the door, neither of them knocked on the door. Wei Yingluo was holding a rice basin and there was no soup to make, so she put the rice basin down and reached out to knock on them. They were low-level maids in the mansion, so they didn't dare to go directly to Li Mu's studio.

"Come in……"

Li Mu held his posture and snorted.

Wei Yingluo then opened the door and came in with Zhenzhu and placed the stewed beef and rice on the workbench.

Li Mu found a fault and said, "Why are you so slow? Do you want to starve me to death?"

Wei Yingluo quickly shook her head and said, "No, it's because... because..."

"Um?"

Li Mu picked up his eyelids and saw Wei Yingluo's eyes red, as if she had just cried. He couldn't help but wonder, in this mansion, there were people who bullied her besides me? Could it be that he was Zhiren? No, she shouldn't have come back yet, so were Xiaozhu and the others? How could they have such courage?

Li Mu frowned and said, "Who bullied you? Why are you crying if you have nothing to do?"

"No, it's okay..."

Wei Yingluo whispered, turning her face to the side.

Li Mu raised his hand and pointed at Zhenzhu, saying, "If she doesn't say it, you must know, what's going on? If someone bullies you, I won't be biased, I will give you justice."

Seeing Li Mu asking, Zhenzhu ignored Wei Yingluo's obstruction and said, "Mr. Marquis, you asked me to say, then I'll just say it. Just now, the gatekeeper of the house came and sent a letter from his wife. The master was sick and had no money to see a doctor. The lady was worried about the master, so she cried. But she didn't blame us for the beef because she was late. We sent it as soon as it was stewed, without delay."

“Bold!”
