I am a demonic cultivator, not a capitalist with a conscience.

Chapter 423 Let's go bankrupt (36)

Entering the dream world called "The Big Capitalist" with trepidation, Principal Liu quickly discovered that the gameplay of the entire dream world was just as simple as Chen Yu had described.

Even someone completely unfamiliar with dream games can quickly figure out that the game involves rolling dice and moving around on a map, constantly buying land or triggering various random events, and then making their own choices.

However, simply buying items is too mindless, so various props and cards have been added, which is equivalent to a cheating method.

There are vehicles that allow players to roll multiple dice at once, remote-controlled dice that control their own rolls, and roadblocks that can stop people from walking.

If you don't like someone, you can use cards to frame them and send them to jail, but you also have to be careful that the other party doesn't buy cards that can bounce back.

These props look imaginative and have a unique childlike charm.

After the dream was unfolded through the external display device, a large map built on the basis of Tianyuan appeared in the small kitchen, and the exquisite buildings shimmered with fairytale colors like building blocks.

The map was created by Zhuge Xingjun. As the incarnation of Wenchang Xingjun, Zhuge Xingjun was ingenious in the map construction. He divided the various areas of Tianyuan into different parts, which became the features of the entire map.

Land prices here are relatively cheap, and most areas are four-tile factory zones. Players who purchase these areas will not immediately reap the benefits and will need to return to build various structures here.

Each type of building has its own level, starting at level 0 and going up to level 5.

As players level up, the toll fees for other players staying on buildings will increase, and the same street will create a chain reaction, potentially bankrupting other players in one fell swoop.

As the factory building's level is upgraded, its functions will also become more powerful.

The Puppet Factory can produce different types of puppets. The ultimate puppet has a turn limit. If it moves onto another player's territory during its turn, it will not be charged and can also blast the other player's buildings to the ground.

You can also slap other players on the road and send them to the hospital, making it a very useful item.

Martial arts academies can train bodyguards. High-level bodyguards can roam the streets, kidnap people, and collect protection money.

After a careful examination, Principal Liu discovered that although the dream was a small dream, many things seemed quite interesting and not as terrifying as he had imagined.

(Has Mr. Chen changed his mind? Is he no longer willing to torment people?)
(No, there might be something truly terrifying lurking somewhere. I need to be careful.)
Principal Liu cautiously rolled the dice, going through more than a dozen rounds before gradually relaxing.

"Six, six, six! Give me a six! Yes, I won!"

After a cheer, Principal Liu saw a six fly onto the dice and shouted excitedly.

His little figure moved forward six squares and landed exactly on the only open space on the entire street.

"I bought this vacant lot for 600 yuan," Principal Liu said excitedly, looking at the street in front of him. "There are six plots on this street. The cost to get here is now 17,000 yuan. You guys have to go bankrupt today!"

Unlike the excited Principal Liu, the other three people behind him had unusually grim expressions.

Even the soothing music couldn't salvage their mood; they stared at Principal Liu with livid faces, their fingers cracking as they clenched their fists.

Unlike Principal Liu, who was incredibly lucky, Teacher Zhao, Zhong Zheng, and the Dean of Students' luck could only be described as tragic.

You get bitten by a dog while walking and end up in the hospital. After you get out, you step on a wild landmine and end up in the hospital again. After you get out again, a random event causes all your money to be deposited in the bank. You have no money to buy land and waste ten turns.

The situation had finally eased up a bit, but then we saw Principal Liu buying land like crazy and building houses like madman. Now he's even started creating the ultimate puppet, which will be able to crush them in a few rounds.

It's unlikely that he could frame the other party, as they had already found an extremely rare large treasure chest on the map. Each chest costs 500 points, enough for him to buy all the items and cards, and after that, he could send other people to prison and hospital again.

Chen Yu, meanwhile, was recording the dream's events. He noticed that although Teacher Zhao and the others were angry, not much of the negative emotion flowed towards him. The anger wasn't caused by the dream itself, but by the opponent's actions. This gave Chen Yu more insights into how to harness negative emotions, allowing him to be more professional in the future.

After jotting down his thoughts, Chen Yu noticed that Principal Liu didn't leave immediately but instead started doing something unconventional.

He began using puppet workers, and a large number of workers continuously built houses, constantly upgrading the building standards of the entire street, and the toll also skyrocketed to 20,000.

Then he used the price increase card, which doubled the toll for one street to 40,000.

He then began using roadblocks, placing items all over his land that could block other players' movements, making it impossible for them to move an inch.

Seeing Principal Liu's series of novice actions, Chen Yu couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

It has to be said that Principal Liu is quite successful in being a shameless person.

While others were still figuring things out, he had already mastered all sorts of disgusting tricks without any instruction, successfully turning a casual game into a game where you're in jail.

Fortunately, he didn't use the "wait and see" strategy, but instead used the crawling and turning cards when others came over, otherwise the other players would have gone crazy.

However, the tactics he's using now are disgusting enough.

Looking at the towering buildings in front of him, the head of the teaching department was ashen-faced.

He had no props in his pocket and no free cards on hand, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and enter the area, paying 40,000 each time.

The player only had 200,000 coins at the beginning, while the headmaster didn't spend any money and only had two pitiful plots of land. After five rounds, he was swindled into bankruptcy and left in despair.

"Yay, one!"

When a player goes bankrupt and leaves, the hidden settings of "The Big Capitalist" come into play.

Every time a player leaves, the price index in the dream world doubles.

After that, the price of all items will be multiplied by the price index. The price of land that was originally 600 will increase to 1200, and the price of land that was originally 40,000 will increase to 80,000.

Seeing the sudden increase in prices, Zhong Zheng, who was walking behind the head of the teaching department, was not calm.

He was a bit luckier than the head of the teaching department; he had a free pass in his pocket, but it was only valid for one free time.

Taking a deep breath, Zhong Zheng began to roll the dice.

The first time I entered a toll street, the free pass blocked me.

The second throw went in, and 80,000 dollars flew away in that instant, causing Zhong Zheng's face to turn pale.

The third time was at six o'clock, but the roadblock in front of him blocked his way, forcing Zhong Zheng to hand over another 80,000 yuan, and then go bankrupt.

With a pale face, Zhong Zheng reluctantly exited the dream, and heard Liu Xiao's excited voice in his ears.

"160,000! We're rich!"
