MTLNOVEL Chapter 192 - The Guild is Full?
“Skeleton Big Brother, t-t-ten gold coins? Isn’t that too much?”
Hearing this, A Silly Cutie nearly fainted on the spot.
Although she was a semi-experienced player…
She could tell from the gazes of those players earlier in the tavern.
For ordinary players now, ten gold coins was an astronomical figure!
Repairing equipment, buying potions, purchasing living supplies, buying gear, learning skills – what didn’t require gold coins?
Even for a big shot like Mo Shenbing, when Zhang Mengmeng previously asked him to take out 100 gold coins, he felt the pain.
One could imagine how poor ordinary players were.
Moreover, ten gold coins, at the current rate, was equivalent to 800,000 yuan!
800,000 yuan could buy an apartment in a fifth-tier city!
Now, just to join a guild required ten gold coins. Who would join?
“Little Cutie, do you know what the most difficult thing is for a guild?”
“What is it?” A Silly Cutie was very curious.
“Eliminating spies.”
Jiang Cheng and A Silly Cutie came outside the city, watching all kinds of players passing by, and continued,
“Every guild has spies. It’s unavoidable. The larger the guild, the more spies there are, almost covering every faction. Let alone Cutie Shakes the World, the first established guild.”
When Jiang Cheng said the guild’s name, his expression still imperceptibly changed.
“Spies are the biggest threat to a guild’s stability. Many guilds fundamentally have no issues, but why do they eventually collapse? It’s because of spies.”
“You’re alone, and we also can’t shift our focus to the guild. Naturally, we can’t prevent the existence of spies.”
“Since that’s the case, it’s better to collect a bit more money upfront. Even if spies jump out later to cause trouble and disrupt stability, we can directly kick them out, minimizing our losses.”
“Uh…” After hearing Jiang Cheng’s words, A Silly Cutie was instantly shocked, looking at him in disbelief.
“Skeleton Big Brother, why do I feel like you’re quite experienced at this?”
Jiang Cheng: “…”
He was indeed quite experienced.
Previously, when he established the Demon Palace guild to oppose the Temple, he used this exact method.
A particularly large number of people joined.
Moreover, in this world, there was never a shortage of wealthy people.
If the threshold for being the first guild established on the entire server was too low, it would instead make those rich players look down on it.
“But will anyone really be so foolish as to pay ten gold coins to join?”
Seeing Qian Chonglang, Yun Xiang, Qi Tun Tianxia and others send thumbs-up emoticons…
As well as countless messages cursing her for being money-crazed and questioning her motives for establishing the guild…
Flooding in like a torrent, it made A Silly Cutie very doubtful. Had Cutie Shakes the World already failed before it even began?
“Without a doubt, and it will reach capacity very quickly,” Jiang Cheng calmly said, looking at the skeptical A Silly Cutie.
“Actually, I originally wanted to set it at 100 gold coins.”
A Silly Cutie: “…”
…
“Holy crap, ten gold coins? Has Cutie Shakes the World gone mad for money?”
“The first established guild is already so arrogant? Ten gold coins? Even if I sold all my equipment, I’d only have 15 silver coins…”
“Do they want me to go broke just to join a guild? How shameless can this A Silly Cutie be?”
“Looks like this first guild is doomed. It luckily seized the absolute advantage and established such a guild, but instead of lowering the threshold to recruit people early on, it actually set such a barrier? Is there a hole in their brain?”
“Forget it, they’re treating players like fools. Even if someone is dumb and rich, they wouldn’t join such a money-grubbing guild, right? Do they think they’re the Temple? Seriously!”
As soon as A Silly Cutie set the membership conditions, it immediately drew countless people’s doubts and curses.
But no matter how much these players cursed or questioned…
In less than half a minute, the 1000 member slots of the level 1 guild Cutie Shakes the World were full!
After setting the membership conditions, member applications no longer needed A Silly Cutie’s approval.
So, seeing the 10,000 gold coins in the guild funds, as well as the number of members, A Silly Cutie was dumbfounded on the spot.
“Uh… Skeleton Big Brother, pinch me and see if I’m dreaming.”
