My game can make money starting from the Three Kingdoms period.

Lu Xiao's motivation for playing games naturally leaned towards making more money.

If there are no restrictions on how you make money, then embezzlement is a shortcut.

While ensuring the continuation of the bloodline and the long-term continuation of the game, the idea of ​​taking a little extra money is something all players would certainly have.

Lu Xiao was no exception.

Now that the situation in Shu Han is improving, if Lu Congtian continues down the path of corruption, he won't last long.

Ironically, he instructed Lu Congtian to follow Liu Bei, fearing that history would remain unchanged and they would ultimately be unable to escape the fate of being swallowed up by Cao Wei.

At that time, they will most likely be slaughtered when the country is destroyed, and their lineage will be cut off.

I haven't made any money, and there's a very high chance the game will end abruptly.

This difficult choice began to torment Lu Xiao.

"I've never seen a game that tortures players so much!"

But there's no doubt that this game is extremely successful; so successful that once you get hooked, very few people will uninstall it halfway through.

Even if it's incredibly torturous and heartbreaking, I still want to keep playing.

Like a super version of a simulation game, it lets players watch firsthand how the family they create struggles to survive in this chaotic world.

After decades of development, it has finally shown signs of sprouting.

Now you want me to quit the game?

Lu Xiao suddenly realized what was keeping him playing this game? It was hope!

I hope the family I've built will stand strong forever! I hope to see a different ending to history!

So why bother debating whether to take the path of corruption or the path of supporting the Han dynasty?

If I can't make money from games, so be it. Do you think I'll starve to death?

But if he missed the chance to help the Prime Minister turn the tide, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

For the Prime Minister! We'll fight to the death!

While eating, Lu Xiao checked the news he had missed.

Ok?

A video caught Lu Xiao's attention.

Lu Xiao saw himself in the video of Da Qingjiao broadcasting game news.

Lu Xiao quickly saved the video to preserve evidence.

"Just when I was worried about not having enough money to pay the rent, someone came knocking on my door!"

To avoid making things worse, Lu Xiao sent a message to Xiao Li.

Lu Xiao: Xiao Li, I have a question. If the other party infringes on my portrait rights, can I apply for compensation?

Xiao Li: I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, but there is a fee for this inquiry.

Lu Xiao: I'll wait for you to get off work.

Then there are countless videos accusing Sega of disrespecting gamers.

The main criticism is that the game cannot be revived, rewinded, or restarted.

Why can't we play? We paid for it!

Some people also posted videos of reporting to the market management department, saying that if they are not allowed to play, then no one should play.

Sega, true to form, did not respond or pay any attention.

It seemed to be mocking everyone, implying that if you could bring me down, you'd be quite capable.

On the contrary, this has pushed the popularity of "The Family" to new heights, allowing more people to learn about the game.

Immediately afterwards, hackers began to work on the problem of only being able to play once, and some people resold initial accounts, but they could not connect to the bio-helmet and could only be played in pixelated block graphics.

Even so, a single initial account is being sold for over a hundred dollars.

Lu Xiao predicts that as the game's popularity increases, the price of these initial accounts will rise further.

Anyone with a modicum of sense can start getting family and friends to register accounts and hoarding and reselling.

Lu Xiao also had the idea of ​​hoarding, but ultimately had to give up due to his network of connections and circumstances.

I then checked the rankings for the Chinese server.

A whole day has passed since the server opened, and the number one player has changed, with the player now holding 8,000 gold coins.

Looking at myself, I'm outside the top million, having dropped 700,000 places in just one day...

But this also proves that more and more players are joining the elite families.

But more often than not, some people's ranking and gold coins remain unchanged because they've fallen out of favor and are stuck there forever.

Various methods for teaching people how to make a fortune have also surfaced online.

Lu Xiao glanced through them and found that some taught people how to compete in the corporate world, some taught people how to embezzle, and others taught people how to do business or join the army—all sorts of methods, a real hodgepodge.

There are also people selling cheat codes and offering free game boosting... the ecosystem is incredibly well-developed.

Lu Xiao could see many opportunities surrounding "The Noble Family," but unfortunately, he lacked resources. Like most ordinary people, he could only watch others seize those opportunities.

These people, however, had a starting point that ordinary people like Lu Xiao could not compare to.

Xiao Li: Bro, who delivered the sales figures?

Lu Xiao: Let's talk in person.

Then send a location.

When the two met, Lu Xiao showed Xiao Li the video.

"How much compensation can you ask for... no, how much emotional distress compensation?"

"It depends on the reach of the video. If it's only been viewed 20,000 times, I can only give you a maximum of 2,000."

What happened next was completely unexpected for Xiao Li.

Lu Xiao then added a dummy boost to Da Qingjiao's video.

"Brother, that's... really amazing."

The green pepper suddenly received a lot of likes and comments, it went viral! The video went viral!

Because of the enduring popularity of "The Noble Family", Lu Xiao's earlier comment that "this game is very good but I don't recommend playing it" has resonated deeply with people.

The exposure of Lu Xiao was considered a secondary source of traffic, but the number of viewers had already exceeded 100,000.

Da Qingjiao dedicated his entire life to his work, yet his most viewed video only garnered 50,000 views.

He had a feeling that this video exposing Lu Xiao would be just as explosive as Lu Xiao's "The Noble Family" video!

"Pay up your money! Boost the video's viewership!"

Once the video is running, it's natural to invest in its distribution and operation.

Big Green Pepper was thus immersed in the joy of being chosen.

……

Lu Xiao accelerated to Qingming Festival in 214.

It conveyed a pre-arranged instruction: to establish prestige.

Lu Congtian had a vague idea of ​​what his ancestor wanted him to do.

By feigning loyalty to Mi Fang, accumulating military merits, and establishing prestige, it was clear that he was preparing to replace Mi Fang.

During the time Lu Congtian was recuperating from his injury.

Liu Bei, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Fei joined forces in Chengdu, and then subdued Ma Chao, together besieging Chengdu.

Chengdu was terrified. Liu Zhang knew that resistance would lead to a siege like Luocheng, where the city would be besieged until its food supplies ran out and the city fell, resulting in the deaths of countless innocent civilians.

Therefore, Liu Zhang left the city and surrendered.

Yizhou has completely changed hands.

Having achieved the strategic goal of connecting Jing and Yi provinces through the Longzhong Plan, and having also gained control of the important cities of Xiang and Fan, Liu Bei was in high spirits.

He held a grand banquet to reward the soldiers and even wanted to take out gold and silver from the Chengdu treasury to reward them and return the grain and silk to the people.

However, Pang Tong persuaded him to stop.

"My lord, you must not do this. The army can be well-fed, but not so much money. The grain can be brought back, but the people cannot be allowed to slack off."

Pang Tong followed Pang Degong to farm from a young age, and his life was full of hardship.

Doesn't he hope to have money to squander? Of course he does.

But Pang Tong knew that if everyone had money, then no one would have money.

Pang Tong made a great contribution to the capture of Yizhou.

His words forced Liu Bei to reconsider.

Fa Zheng also advised, "I understand your excitement, my lord, but Yizhou has just been pacified and everything needs to be rebuilt. From now on, Yizhou will belong to you, my lord. You must not have the idea of ​​forcibly taking cities and then looting them clean."

Fa Zheng and Zhang Song welcomed Liu Bei together. Although his words were unpleasant, they were all true.

Historically, Liu Bei's excessive excitement and lavish rewards led to the collapse of the economy in Yizhou, the slackening of soldiers, and the devastation of the people. It was only through Liu Ba's minting of the Zhibai coin that the decline was reversed.

Fortunately, Lu Congtian shielded Pang Tong from an arrow, saving him. At this moment, Pang Tong's rational advice inadvertently shifted the course of history.
