I got an S-level talent in the apocalypse, and I will lead Blue Star to rise

Chapter 307 Negotiation
Seeing Claudia and her group, their attitude changed from initial disdain to current suspicion.

Ning Yun and Chen Yuanyuan exchanged glances and knew that they had achieved their goal.

Then they arrived at their next stop, an adult school.

The two schools are right next to each other, but the difference is that the regular school teaches children to read.

Adult schools, on the other hand, teach various survival skills.

Even the teachers here are exceptionally different.

Most of them were middle-aged or elderly people with white hair.

Those who study here are all ordinary people from Mo City.

In the classroom, the teacher sits in the middle, surrounded by a circle of students, both boys and girls.

"The most important thing about bamboo weaving is not skill, but patience."

"For example, the bamboo we choose should ideally be moso bamboo or water bamboo that is more than 3 years old."

"Then, split it into even, thin strips as much as possible, and scrape it clean."

"Look, this is what I shaved. It doesn't feel rough to the touch."

The experienced master taught them step by step.

These students were of different ages, but they listened very attentively.

The class next door wasn't teaching bamboo weaving, but rather how to use an abacus.

Strangely enough, there are tools for calculating in the survival world.

However, it is very complicated to use. If you follow a teacher to learn, it will take at least three years to get the basics down.

Since there were no calculators in the world, the Chinese invented the abacus.

By striking a few beads like this, the calculation efficiency increased significantly.

Especially for ordinary people, it's just some basic calculations, and the difficulty is not high.

Chen Yuanyuan acted as the commentator, saying, "These people are all studying accounting. After they graduate, they can find employment in various shops or caravans."

An official from Hongyun City asked, "How many years will they study here?"

several years?

Chen Yuanyuan explained, "They only learn some basic arithmetic, and it usually takes three months."

Claudia and the officials of Red Cloud City were somewhat skeptical, but this time, they learned their lesson and didn't send anyone out to test them again.

Chen Yuanyuan was a little disappointed.

Why aren't you questioning it anymore?

Why have you stopped shouting?

Next, Claudia and her group saw many scenes they had never seen before.

Their third stop was the factory.

To be precise, it was a textile factory.

The people here wear uniforms and the same hats, busily working in the workshop.

The brand-new, comfortable fabric was produced in this way.

Ning Yun had intended to demonstrate the textile factory's rigorous management, but Claudia and her group's performance completely exceeded her expectations.

Upon seeing the factory, Claudia couldn't contain her surprise.

"What are these big guys?"

"My God, how does this thing move?"

Chen Yuanyuan knew that the factory was built by Ning Yun using the city-state system.

She had assumed that other city-states had this kind of architecture.

But looking at Claudia and the others' surprised and frightened expressions, it really didn't seem like acting.

"Doesn't Red Cloud City have it?"

Chen Yuanyuan whispered to Ning Yun and secretly sent her a message.

Judging from Claudia's performance, Red Cloud City definitely doesn't have a factory.

This may prove that Ning Yun's city-state system is different from Claudia's system for managing city-states.

If the previous school presentation was within the expectations of the group from Hongyun City...

The roaring machines in the factory completely upended their worldview. They abandoned their aristocratic airs and kept bombarding Ning Yun and Chen Yuanyuan with questions.

How does this thing move?

"Where did these raw materials come from?"

"How much do you plan to sell this fabric for?"

Claudia, however, asked a crucial question.

"Why can you build factories, but Red Cloud City can't?"

Only the two city lords knew that they had absolute control over the city-state.

For example, what buildings to construct and where to place them are all decided by the city lord alone.

However, in Claudia's city-state management panel, there are almost only two types of buildings: residences and shops.

She had never even seen a factory.

“You are not from other advanced city-states, but new players, right?”

Claudia stared intently at Ning Yun, trying not to miss any subtle expression on her face.

But Ning Yun just laughed and said, "Yes, we are players who have just arrived in this world."

There's nothing to hide.

Ning Yun had long suspected that the so-called natives of this world might not be natives at all.

Instead, they were former players.

Otherwise, why would they be able to see the game panel?

But Ning Yun had guessed that they wouldn't always be able to see the panel.

This situation only appeared after the game's 3.0 version update.

Compared to ordinary people, the lords of city-states may know more secrets.

The city-state of Red Cloud City is particularly unique, as it has always been controlled by Claudia's family.

As long as they record history, they can glimpse the true face of the game world.

Everything that was shown to Claudia before was just a prelude.

As it turned out, this introduction was very successful.

Claudia was indeed very interested.

Ning Yun was not opposed to cooperating with Red Cloud City in exchange for the true secrets of this world.

Seeing Ning Yun's frank admission, Claudia fell silent.

Her face was very calm, an eerie quiet.

Ironically, his normally calm eyes seemed to be hiding countless complex emotions, ready to burst forth at any moment.

Ning Yun noticed this and keenly realized that Claudia indeed knew quite a few secrets.

But now, she doesn't ask directly.

They spent a long time touring the factory, visiting every workshop and observing how the workers operated.

Ning Yun also took them to the staff canteen and the surrounding residential areas.

After this long walk, everyone was physically exhausted, but mentally very excited.

Butler Willis had already arranged a welcome party, but at Ning Yun's request, the dance was removed and replaced with a simple dinner.

Claudia, who was originally arrogant and haughty, was actually distracted the whole time.

She ignored even when her two male lovers came to fawn over her.

Even a fool could see that Claudia was preoccupied.

Even at the dinner party, Claudia only drank a little red wine and didn't touch the food on the table.

You should know that the cuisine of China has conquered the entire city of Mo, as well as people from Hongyun City.

After the banquet ended, Claudia stood up and walked to Ning Yun's side to ask her something.

"Lord Ning, may I speak with you privately?"

She's really charming to have abandoned her haughty Claudia.

Those amber eyes shone brightly under the light.

Ning Yun nodded. "Alright, in that case, please come to my office."
