Chapter 906: Four major systems of quasi-player sect system

If a sect system wants to operate normally and normally, the problems involved are naturally all aspects. In the past, these problems were automatically managed by the game system, so players don’t need to worry about anything at all. Now that the sect system is upgraded, the game system handed over the entire sect system to the player leader for management, it can be said to be a great test of the player leader’s management ability and coordination ability. Even if Feng Lin thinks she is already a smarter person, even if she has the help of the game messenger Hua Yuewang, she has to send a text message to ask Fang Jie, who is the best at theoretical analysis and research in her opinion.

Since the election of the head sect has not yet begun and the sect system has not been handed over to the players, Feng Lin only conducted a paper conversation with Fang Jie through text messages based on the explanation of the relevant sect system. For related practical operations, they may have to wait until the election of the head sect to have the opportunity to formally contact and understand. As for whether Feng Lin can be elected as the head of the Emei Sect... As long as there is no accident, this should be a foregone conclusion.

After a careful study of the Emei Sect's sect system upgrade description, Fang Jie concluded that under normal circumstances, a sect's system can generally be divided into four major systems, namely: hardware facility system, software function system, np management system and financial administrative system. These four systems are divided into many small systems in different categories. The four major systems also complement each other, are related to each other, and are indispensable, and are all controlled by the head of the sect.

As the name suggests, all hardware facilities involving sect bases, such as footprint, base layout, sect buildings, indoor and outdoor decoration, furniture decoration, maze secret passages, etc., all belong to the jurisdiction of this system. Players can use this system to plan, design, construction, improvement, upgrade or recycling it.

Of course, since the hardware facilities system of the quasi-player sect has basically been established, the actual operations required by the player leader is only spending a lot of money and building materials to activate these hardware facilities that originally belonged to the game system, and gradually buy back the shares of these buildings from the game system.

Give a simple example from the sect architecture.

The practice room is one of the essential hardware facilities for each sect, and there are three practice rooms in the Emei sect, which are ranked according to the level of building: Wanxing Temple, Woyun Temple and Huazang Temple.

After the Emei Sect system was upgraded, as the head of the quasi-player sect, Feng Lin naturally did not need to choose another place to build a training room. However, at the beginning, these three training rooms were unable to be used. To be precise, they were not allowed to enter. If they wanted the Emei Sect disciples to enter the training room to level up like before, the player's leader would have to spend a certain amount of building materials to activate the use of their hardware facilities from the game system.

However, it is not enough to just activate its use function, because the area of ​​the practice room is so large, while there are millions of disciples of the Emei Sect. Even if one hundred people share a practice room, it is far from enough.

what to do?

Then we can only activate the copy function through the software function system first. Let’s talk about the software function system later. Let’s not mention it here for now. After activate the copy function of the practice room, Feng Lin has to spend a certain amount of funds and building materials to upgrade it and increase the number of copies.

As for how much money and building materials are spent on opening a replica of a practice room, the relevant system introduction does not explain it, and only says that players will let the master experience and explore it themselves. However, according to Fang Jie's estimate, although the cost of a unit replica may not be too much, the number of replicas is very amazing, so the total cost is definitely astronomical!

Moreover, this is not over. As mentioned earlier, there are three training rooms in the Emei School. The lowest level training room is Wanxing'an. The so-called "lowest level", that is, even if Feng Lin can use enough funds and construction materials to upgrade and expand the Wanxing'an training room copy or activate the corresponding functions, the Wanxing'an training room only has the most basic functions. In other words, players can only perform basic operations such as meditation and meditation cultivation in such training room copies. As for auction houses, warehouses and other welfare functions, they do not have them.

If you want this training room to have these welfare functions, in addition to activate its corresponding functions through the software function system, you must also spend money to upgrade the building level of Wanxingan to a five-star maximum level. After activate the next level training room Woyunan, you will then activate its use function and purchase a copy of the higher level training room for your disciples to use. If you want to upgrade the training room to a luxurious training room, add the venue function of practicing martial arts and using the training bronze man, buffet catering function, and 10 training bonus function, you must upgrade the building level of Wanxingan to a five-star maximum level, activate the Huazangan training room, and activate the corresponding functions.

On this basis, if you want to further improve the practicality of the practice room, you can also purchase some gain-effect furniture and decorations from the game system through the hardware facility system, such as calligraphy and painting, wall engraving, blood bed, ice bed, etc., a series of special props. However, these things belong to the category of luxury goods and are of great value. If Feng Lin wants to get a set of such gain props for each practice room, it is absolutely impossible.

You should know that the above are just a small branch in the hardware facility system in the entire sect system. For example, the catering buildings of each sect just involve a series of details such as activation of buildings, opening functions, upgrading copies, purchasing ingredients, pricing and sales. If all the details in the entire hardware facility system are explained clearly, it is probably impossible to finish it for three days and three nights.

Therefore, just from the example mentioned above, you can imagine how huge and complicated the entire hardware facility system is. To sort it out and operate it, it is definitely a complicated task. It can be expected that once the sect's head disciples are promoted to the head of the sect, they will basically not have time to improve their martial arts strength, and then they may completely transform from martial arts players to administrative players who purely take it as their responsibility to manage the daily affairs of the sect.

As for software functional systems, from a conceptual explanation, they are those "soft standards" that are invisible and intangible to enable certain functional, service, gain and expand their usage rights. The so-called "soft standards" means that even if they do not meet these standards, it will not cause any trouble. However, if these standards can be met, they can enjoy the corresponding functions and services and improve game efficiency.

In layman's terms, if Feng Lin does not activate the training room of this sect through the hardware facility system, the player cannot even enter the training room door, which means it cannot be used at all. However, if the copy function and other welfare functions are not activated through the software function system, the disciples under the sect are not happy, but at least they have a place to stay, which is simply that the game efficiency is a little low. Therefore, the operation and maintenance of the software function system of the player's sect directly determines the benefits of the players under its sect. On the other hand, whether a sect can continue to grow and grow under the management of the player's sect depends on whether the amount of investment it invests in the software function system can attract a large number of players to join.

This system has a feature that its functions can be partially activated or phased and batched.

Take the Emei School’s practice room as an example. As mentioned earlier, if you want the practice room to accommodate enough people, you must spend money to activate the copy function through this system, and then upgrade it to increase its copy capacity. The system also involves this system. However, during this period, if there are financial difficulties, you can first activate a small number of copy of the practice room, and even if you encounter financial problems when opening a certain copy, you can pay part of the funds first to temporarily use the practice room in the nature of renting.

However, if it is rented, the game system will charge a certain amount of rent every day based on the shares owned by the dungeon, and will not stop collecting rent until the dungeon shares of the training room are completely bought by the player. Of course, this involves some settings in the financial administrative system, and will not be mentioned for the time being.

It is said that through this system, the player leader can flexibly regulate the welfare of his disciples based on his own economic tolerance, and can even use this to win over or motivate his disciples. For example, the player leader can activate all welfare functions for his subordinates for free. After the game efficiency increases, his enthusiasm will naturally increase, and he will be more sincere to the player leader, and vice versa.

Now that the hardware facilities are available and the software functions are enabled, the disciples of the disciples have their own luxurious training room to live in. The remaining question is how to level up and do tasks. Whether it is leveling up or doing tasks, it is necessary to deal with the sect's NP very frequently, so a responsible player leader should operate the NP management system next.

The so-called NP management system, as the name suggests, is the daily management and maintenance of NPs in this sect. This NP not only includes the existing sect NPs, but also some housekeeper-type NPs that help players handle daily things.

The reason for this system is, on the one hand, because quasi-player sects are transformed from officially set sects. Their sects are all a carrot and a pit with their own value and significance. Their value and significance are not only reflected in supporting the daily operation mechanism of the entire sect, but also in their involvement in some public tasks and puzzles. In other words, none of these sects can be missing. If one is missing, it is not allowed by the game system.

On the other hand, sect NPs also have many jobs to do. If they are missing, the daily operation of the sect is likely to immediately fail. For example, if the NP leader is gone, how can this sect get the task? How can you get the secrets? In addition, the player leader is an individual, not a super computer, and it is impossible to do many things yourself. There must be a related sect type NP to help him handle some simple and cumbersome affairs.

Therefore, even if the head of the sect of the player is reluctant, they must let these sects stand in a place where they should be standing. To do this, the sect leader must spend money to purchase or rent related sects from the game system, and must ensure that these sects will be replenished anytime and anywhere after they die unexpectedly.

Regarding the purchase and rental prices of NP, the game system has unceremoniously listed specific calculation formulas: the system purchase price of each sect NP = the total number of all skill levels of the sect NP * its highest martial arts level level * 10 (gold). The system purchase price of each steward-type NP is 100,000 taels of gold. The rental price is charged one thousandth of its sales price per day. If it dies during the rental period, a fee will be charged according to the sales price.

Taking the Emei Sect as an example, the head of the sect, Master Feng Ling, has twenty full-level skills. The total number of skill levels is that since his highest martial arts skills level has reached the level of a master, that is, level 10, the purchase price of his system is 1 million taels of gold. If he rents it, it will be 1,000 taels of gold in one day. If he dies, 1 million taels of gold will be deducted!

For example, Zhou Zhiruo of Emei Sect, although his general martial arts skills are only at the same level, unfortunately, because he inherited the settings in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Zhou Zhiruo's Nine Yin Divine Arts has reached the level of a master. Therefore, when calculating his highest martial arts realm, he still uses level 10 as the formula coefficient, and his price is not much cheaper than Master Feng Ling.

Therefore, the funds spent on purchasing these NPs are a considerable number, and the player leader must be mentally prepared that some extremely powerful players may kill these NPs during the mission process, especially the Grandmaster series of tasks, which specifically kills NPs of various sects. So if you don't do it well, some player leader can lose everything by just replenishing the killed NPs.

Of course, at the beginning of the upgrade of the sect system, the game system has kept a relatively generous amount of existing NPs. The player leader does not need to spend extra money to buy it for the time being. So after seeing this additional note, Fang Jie, who had already been worried about Feng Lin, was relieved, thinking that Feng Lin might be worried about gains and losses at this moment?

In fact, Feng Lin was in a good mood at the moment, because even if Fang Jie started to do the assassination mission of the Grandmaster and ran to the Emei Sect to kill NPs, with the relationship between the two for many years, Fang Jie should not be shameless and killing the Emei Sect in a big way. At that time, Fang Jie might give some NP subsidies, so that Feng Lin would not be able to lose all his money by killing Feng Lin. Fang Jie probably wouldn't worry about so much of other sects. With one increase and the other decrease, this would be more beneficial to the future development of the Emei Sect, so Feng Lin's mood would naturally be very smooth.

Fang Jie naturally didn't know that he would become the number one public enemy in the martial arts world who would make the heads of various sects bleed because of his master's mission. At this time, he had already focused all his energy on the study of the sect's financial administrative system, and even conducted a focused analysis and exploration of it, because in his opinion, compared with the previous three systems, the financial administrative system is the most fundamental, most important, and the key to determining whether a sect can operate well.

The financial administration system is naturally a system that manages the two systems of sect finance and administration, and the supreme authority of the player leader is also concentratedly reflected through the two aspects of politics.

The financial system of the sect generally includes two corresponding branch systems: income and expenditure.

There are many ways to obtain income system, or channels for obtaining income, and they are generally related to the three major systems of hardware, software and NP. The most important way to obtain income is the sect capita tax.

Specifically, the player's head determines the fee standards for collecting count tax through the management system, and the game system automatically deducts the corresponding count tax from the money bank accounts of all disciples in a day according to this standard. There is no upper limit on the amount of count tax, which can be 1 tael of gold per day or 10,000 taels of gold per day. In short, jokingly speaking, the specific amount depends on how the head of the sect was feeling that day.

Of course, having said that, if any sect really dares to risk the world and set up a lot of people's head tax because of a bad mood, it will definitely be the result of self-destruction of the Great Wall. Therefore, in the setting of the sect's head tax, as long as you want to have some achievements, you should adapt to local conditions and grasp the right position, and try to get more taxes without damaging the enthusiasm of the disciples under your sect.

The second main way to obtain income is that the player leader can raise funds for sect construction by selling or renting some hardware facilities and software functions in the sect base.

For example, take the Emei School’s practice room as an example.

After Feng Lin activated the use permissions and functions of the practice room, if the Emei Sect disciples want to use the practice room to enjoy their functions, it is not just for use. They must also be approved and confirmed by the head Feng Lin. After all, the permissions and functions of the practice room require a lot of money. Feng Lin, as both the head of the sect and the investor of the activation function, although he has the responsibility to provide basic game guarantees for the Emei Sect disciples, he has no obligation to provide the practice room to his disciples for free for free.

If Feng Lin is rich and generous and gives the training room free of charge to his disciples, there is naturally nothing to say, but it is obvious that not to mention Feng Lin, even a second-generation ancestor like the decadent and low blood may not have so much money to squander. Therefore, in the use and distribution of the training room, the head of the sect must adopt certain charging and incentive strategies.

For example, it costs 10,000 taels of gold to open a copy of an ordinary practice room in Emei Sect. If Feng Lin wants all his disciples to have their own practice room, it will cost at least tens of billions. This is obviously impossible. Therefore, the solution to the financial problem is to open a copy of the practice room while selling his use rights to his disciples.

During the sales process, Feng Lin can sell at a higher cost price to earn the difference, or sell at a fair price to reduce the pressure on the disciples, and can also sell at a discount or even give away free of charge to win the support and praise of the disciples. These sales strategies naturally have their own advantages and disadvantages, and it depends on how Feng Lin grasps it.

However, in Fang Jie's view, from a long-term perspective, the best way is to first open a portion of the practice room copy, and then rent it out in the form of a rental, and then gradually increase the number of the practice room copy, because if a sect develops well, there will only be more and more disciples under the sect, and the demand for the practice room will only increase. This is actually the same as real estate development. As an "opening merchant" who can only have one piece of land in Mount Emei, it is impossible to buy land from other sects. Therefore, the most profitable way is to make the people in Mount Emei continue to appreciate in value, and then become a "landlord" yourself to collect rent.

Of course, there are some special circumstances that need to be treated differently. For example, can Feng Lin appropriately give certain preferential policies to the core disciples of the Emei Sect in their authority to use the practice room? For example, can the disciples of the sect who have made outstanding contributions to the Emei Sect take a rent reduction or give them a house for free as a reward? For example, those players who do nothing all day long and even sing with the head of the sect to counter-mobilize the morale of the army to take back their right to use the practice room as a punishment?

In short, after some research and analysis, Fang Jie felt that there is a lot to do in terms of the right to use and ownership of the practice room, not to mention that the various gain functions of the practice room can also be sold and rented to the disciples. If the operation is good, it will definitely be happy and profitable.

However, when it comes to the issue of use rights and ownership, it must be noted that since the game system has privatized the sect system, the ownership and use rights of all hardware and functions purchased by players will also belong to the player.

For example, if a player buys a copy of a training room from the head of the sect, if the head of the sect confirms this transaction through management authority, then the ownership and use rights of the copy of the training room will be permanently owned by the player. In the future, neither the game system nor the head of the sect will have the right to inquire about the ownership and use rights of this training room. Even if the player leaves the sect, the training room still belongs to him. When the player does not need the training room for some reason, he can also sell it to the head or the game system for recycling. Similarly, the head of the sect can also sell any hardware facilities or functions of the sect to the game system for recycling at any time and anywhere.

Another point that needs to be explained is that the player leader only has the right to use the copy of the exercise room that is activated. As for ownership, it belongs to the disciples of the entire sect and is a public property. The player leader can only manage the use of the various hardware settings activated. During this period, whether it is selling the exercise room to the disciples of the sect or selling it to the system for recycling, the recovered funds will be deposited into the sect's public fund account, rather than entering the player leader's own pocket.

This so-called public fund account for sects is actually used for sect accounts that are temporarily managed by sect leaders. No matter which formal channel the sect leader obtains funds, such as heads of sects, hardware sales and rental fees, they will be deposited as sect funds into a public fund account for sects that all disciples can check at any time. Players can only indirectly use the money from the sect public account to perform various operations on the sects, and cannot withdraw cash. Their use is supervised by all disciples.

Therefore, don’t think that the player’s head can use public service to private affairs after controlling financial power, and do whatever he wants. Don’t think that the money of the disciples of the disciples will flow into the player’s head’s pocket. With this sect’s public fund account, although it cannot completely eliminate the occurrence of vicious cases such as corruption and abuse of the law, it can at least restrict the player’s head from abuse of the sect’s public funds to a certain extent and increase the transparency of its use process.

In addition to the above two main ways to accumulate funds for sect construction, the sect leader can also raise funds through other methods, such as selling various sect secrets and martial arts skills in the form of reselling.

As we all know, in the past, if players wanted to find a master to obtain martial arts secrets or learn martial arts tricks, they had to use a certain number of sect contribution points to collect. Now, after the sect system was upgraded, the player's sect can first pay some money to purchase sect martial arts secrets from the game system through the sect financial management system, and then hand it over to the NP responsible for issuing sect secrets to increase the price of sect sales. They can also directly increase the amount of sect contribution points required to learn martial arts tricks and earn the sect contribution spread in the middle.

Here we are still taking the Emei Sect as an example.

Feng Lin only needs to take out 500,000 sect contributions from the sect fund account to buy a Linji Twelve Village through the game system, and players receive a secret book of the top internal strength of the Emei Sect from Master Feng Ling. Feng Lin can adjust its sales price between one to five times the cost price.

In other words, if Feng Lin is more kind, he can sell at a price of 500,000 points of sect contribution, which is equivalent to the previous intermediate martial arts secrets. However, if Feng Lin is a little greedy, the price can be adjusted to a maximum of 2.5 million points of sect contribution. If it is converted according to the current market exchange price of gold and sect contribution points, Feng Lin can earn at least 300,000 for every 1 book of Linji Twelve Houses sold, and at most 2 million taels of gold.

If a player wants to learn the ultimate trick of Linji Twelve Villages and becomes a Buddha immediately after learning this inner skill, he has to spend another million sect contributions, and Feng Lin can also adjust the cost of his learning within one to five times, which is equivalent to earning a large amount of sect contribution points from it.

Of course, these are just theoretical data, and the difference earned will be automatically transferred to the sect fund account. Feng Lin cannot get cash, and Feng Lin can't make some private money if she wants to buy and sell privately. After all, in this process, all financial statements are made public to her disciples, and she can only do a fair deal at most, and it is impossible to take shortcuts.

It should be noted here that the sect fund account is composed of two accounts of different natures. One is an account stored in gold, and the other is an account stored in sect contribution points. The two can be used in a ratio of 1:1 and 2:1. In other words, the player leader can use 1 tael of gold in the fund account to exchange 2 sect contributions in the sect contribution account through the system. But conversely, 2 sect contributions can only be exchanged for 1 sect contribution, and whether it is sect contributions or gold, they can be used as sect funds.

Speaking of this, we have to mention the nature of the contribution points of the relevant sects. In general, the use of sect contribution points is similar to the use of gold. It can be used to upgrade buildings, activate functions, or purchase various sect props. There is no practical difference between the two.

But in essence, gold is still the only hard currency in the game, and the sect contribution points are only a special currency for sect construction and development. The reason is that when players do sect tasks or brush dungeons, they can obtain additional rewards for sect contributions from the game system. After spending the sect contribution points through the sect system, if the player leader adopts the strategy of earning the difference, these sect contribution points will remain on the sect fund account.

In other words, the sect contribution points are essentially a welfare currency provided by the game system for players. When players pay capita tax or purchase sect welfare facilities, they can use sect contribution points instead of gold for trading. This greatly saves players' actual expenses. For the player leader, making full use of the contribution points in the sect contribution account to develop sects is also an effective means to avoid causing grudges from the sect's anger due to excessive taxes.

Therefore, based on all the above income methods, the wool is actually still on the sheep. One is the "sheep" of an ordinary player, who was plucked by the player's head and then returned to the player through the construction of the sect base. The other is the sheep in the game system. Although the official sect has been privatized to the player's head and recovered a large amount of game coins from the player and the player's head, in fact, due to the existence of the sect's contribution points, at least half of the wool was returned to the player, ensuring the normal operation of the game.

From this we can see that with the joint cooperation of these two "sheep", it is not impossible for those players who are not economically capable to operate the sect normally. At least Fang Jie believes that if a player leader has strong enough management, coordination, marketing and other abilities, even if he is poor and careless, he will definitely be able to operate a sect normally, and even gradually develop into a giant sect. It is not a fantasy...

(The new sect system is very large, and I can't finish it all at once. This chapter has written more than 8,000 words, and the others will be left to the next chapter before explaining, otherwise I will not be able to close the end today and I will not be able to update it.)v
