Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

Li Zhi continued to read "History of the New Race Lords".

By searching for names in the directory, I quickly found Yan Laker's information.

[Yanlaike: Rock Clan]

Initial rating: C1, Final rating: C3

First place in the inaugural freshman race rankings in 197, awarded 100 acres of territory...

In February of the 197th year of the Tianqi Calendar, the Yanlak race broke through to level C2, entered the Mountainous Secret Realm, and disappeared.

Li Zhi was stunned when he saw the word "disappeared".

Then I turned to the records of the Kleiasna Sea of ​​the Haipu tribe.

[Kreasna: Formerly of the Hyperion, later of the Scaled Tribe]

Initial rating: B1, Final rating: A3

……

In January of the 263rd year of the Apocalypse, Kleiasna's racial level broke through to B2, allowing her to enter the Deep Sea Mystic Realm.

In February of the 263rd year of the Apocalypse, Clairesna reappeared, broke through to A1 level, established the deep-sea territory of Scale Kingdom, and became the first lord of Scale Kingdom.

In May of the 268th year of the Tianqi era, Kleiasna broke through to level A2, and the territory of the Scaled Kingdom expanded to 129 acres.

In May of the 298th year of the Tianqi era, Kleiasna broke through to level A3, and the territory of the Scaled Kingdom expanded to 1907 acres.

In January of the 300th year of the Tianqi era, under the leadership of Kleiasna, the Scaled Kingdom achieved a racial rating of A...

After reading the histories of the two unfamiliar top-ranked figures, Li Zhi found the history of Yu Ling Huang Chong, the first Yu Ling emperor of the Yu Ling clan.

Chong: Feathered Spirit Clan

Initial rating: D1; Final rating: A3

……

In August of the 401st year of the Tianqi era, Chong's racial level broke through to D2.

In August of the 401st year of the Tianqi era, Chong's racial level broke through to D3.

In September of the 401st year of the Tianqi era, Chong comprehended the heart of a strongman, broke through the C1 racial level, and established the territory of the Feather Spirit Kingdom.

……

In January of the 416th year of the Heavenly Revelation, Chong once again comprehended the Heart of a Strongman, his racial level broke through B1, and he entered the Nebula Trial Zone. When he left the secret realm, his racial level broke through A1.

In February of the 491st year of the Tianqi era, Chong planted the Feather Spirit Tree.

In January of the 500th year of the Tianqi era, under the leadership of Chong, the Feathered Spirit Kingdom achieved a racial rating of A.

In March of the 505th year of the Tianqi era, Chong used his talent and essence to accelerate the ripening of the Feather Spirit Tree.

In February of the 506th year of the Tianqi reign, the Feather Spirit Tree matured, and Chong died.

Li Zhi read the Snow Demon's history again, and it was actually quite similar. Each of them had their own adventures. Perhaps because the Trial Zone had been sealed, the Snow Demon's Trial Zone Pass was never used in the end.

However, experiences and opportunities are things that depend on the individual.

The territory, however, is something that every lord is guaranteed to receive, and it is dozens of times larger than the 300 square meters and 600 square meters given by the wealth ranking.

Ying lay on an enlarged planet. Seeing that Li Zhi had finished reading, she lazily asked, "How much spiritual power do you have? You actually learned the Holy Shadow script so quickly. But reading this information isn't very useful. Your problem now is whether to compete on the wealth ranking or the leaderboard."

Li Zhi adopted a listening posture: "May I ask what advice Lord Ying, who knows the most secrets on the Tianqi Continent, has?"

Shadow: "Actually, you are not incapable of competing for the rankings. In terms of territory size, you absolutely cannot compete with the higher-ups of your new race. However, the race rankings actually have hidden factors."

Li Zhi directly transferred 100 gold coins.

Shadow: "So many gold coins! I almost don't recognize you!"

She had no choice but to sit up straight. "Actually, each race calculates the hidden coefficients of the new race rankings. The data I collected shows that although the coefficient for territory area is not low, there are even higher coefficients, as well as the number and quality of elites within the territory."

"How so?"

"The rankings are not based on the size of the territory or how good the current facilities and buildings are. Instead, they are based on the development potential and value of a territory. Among these factors, the quality of the subjects is very important. A subject with high potential and a high level can increase the coefficient by several times. In addition, there is the level of loyalty. The greater the potential of the subject, the higher the loyalty and the higher the coefficient will be."

Seeing that Li Zhi seemed thoughtful, Ying asked directly, "Are you aware of dual household registration?"

Li Zhi: "Dual household registration?"

Shadow: "A free citizen can have up to four household registrations, but most free citizens will not apply for so many. Household registrations are limited, and lords are unwilling to issue so many household registrations to people. But that's not important. What's important is that you can issue dual household registrations to people you know. As long as they accept it, that person will be counted in your territory."

Isn't this just dual citizenship?

Li Zhi's eyes lit up: "Any race is fine?"

Ying: "Either is fine."

Li Zhi grabbed Ying's hand: "Are you willing to join the 'Never Forget the Danger' household registration?"

Shadow: "...I feel like I—"

Li Zhi: "You're being hunted down everywhere, trapped in the Green Market and Holy Shadow City, how boring! You haven't even been to Unforgettable Danger yet. If you had a household registration, you could teleport directly to Unforgettable Danger, wouldn't that be great? That's the Emerald Mountain Range, and Emerald is there too."

She couldn't help but swallow hard as she spoke, "We can't appear for the time being, but it's also uncertain whether we're still considered alive enough to be issued a household registration?"

Shadow: "...That thing you mentioned, which isn't sure if it counts as alive, isn't it...Jade?"

Li Zhi: "Yes."

Shadow: "...Don't ask me. Go to Twin Moon City and ask Emerald. She might actually agree to your request."

Li Zhi suddenly understood, grabbed Ying's hand and squeezed it tightly: "If I didn't really need assets to protect myself right now, I would definitely transfer 1 gold coins to you!"

Why didn't she think of that?!

Shadow: "...You're not really planning to go to the Starry Moon Corridor, are you?"

Li Zhi replied without hesitation, "Of course! I was going to go anyway, but I kept putting it off. Isn't now the perfect time?"

Shadow: "You...you want the powerful figures from the Star Moon Corridor to be added to your household registration?"

Li Zhi: "I'm just going to make a sales pitch. If it works out, great. If not, I won't lose anything."

She has already started thinking about sales pitches and strategies.

A person with the heart of a strongman could easily be worth 1000 ordinary subjects, let alone 10000. They are even more than 100 elite humans who have not yet broken through to C-level.

Although the official territories have been combined, the situation regarding the dependent population is really hard to say amidst the power struggles among various parties.

Even if they were to recruit elites like the Star-born students as subjects, such talents, one in ten million or even one in a hundred million, would be extremely rare.

However, the Star and Moon Corridor contains 1224 portraits. If she can persuade 24 of them, she can raise the quality of her subjects to a level that no other territory can catch up to.
