Chapter 300 - You Do It If You“re So Able (2/2)

The guild leader was upset and said, “But we paid for the virtual cabin, so can we do something in this area?”

The bald middle-aged man smiled bitterly. “That would be hard, too. The virtual cabins are only connective devices, so as long as it’s not a product quality problem, we can’t do anything about it. Besides, this is a game content problem. However, the game is still in alpha testing, not in beta testing. The most we can do is say that the game’s content has problems and resulted in an extremely unpleasant experience, then have the gaming company buy back the virtual cabins at the original price and pay a small amount of money for mental damage or something along those lines.”

However, this was also a bad idea. Now that the virtual cabins’ prices had been inflated to more than three million, to return it at the original price… It would only be fifty thousand yuan, and the emotional damage costs or whatever would be no more than ten thousand yuan.

It added up to about 60,000—only an idiot would return it to the game officials at the original price.

The guild leader thought about it and said, “No matter what, the officials still have to be pressured. Asura, you’re in charge of diplomacy, go join up with the other guilds and find a way to put pressure on the game officials—there’s strength in numbers.”

A young man nodded and didn’t say anything.

Then the Silver Wings guild leader pushed aside the small shredded bangs on his forehead, “Hawk, how is the situation on your side?”

“Like the docks in other cities, it was all destroyed, and everything that could be taken was taken. Not to mention the s.h.i.+ps, not even a single piece of linen was left.”

“I remember you have a tyc.o.o.n over there named Vincent, can you persuade him to donate some more money to us? We’ll increase his dividends later.”

Hawk sighed deeply. “Did we lose a lot?”

“A significant amount; the most conservative estimate is a loss of twenty million.”

Hawk was silent. It was a while before he said, “Vincent has already left the guild. He doesn’t even want the 1.5 million in donation bonuses.”

After a moment of stunned silence, the guild leader’s angry scolding rang out: “Hawk, what’s the matter with you, how can you let such an important member just drop out of the guild!?”

Hawk said dejectedly, “He didn’t want to stay, and we couldn’t stop him.”

The guild leader held back his anger, “Hawk, tell me what happened. I want to know exactly why that tyc.o.o.n left the guild.”

Hawk immediately told the whole story of how it had happened.

The Silver Wings top executives all fell silent after hearing this.

Were Hawk’s actions right? Were Suel’s actions right?

From Silver Wings’ point of view, it was right. After all, if your a.s.s was sitting on this side, you certainly had to think about the guild, and due to their fast expansion, the guild had already started to run out of money.

Any amount of profit was significant.

However, the consequence was that the money was not acquired and they also fell out with F6.

And Vincent was forced to take sides and ended up choosing Roland’s Magic Tower.

They invited only trouble without receiving any rewards.

After about a minute of silence, the guild leader said seriously, “Hawk, we’ll put the matter with F6 on record for now. The most important thing now is to find a way to retaliate and make them spit out our losses. I remember Delpon is essentially under Silver Wings control, right? Can we get seize the tax revenue of Delpon as well?”

The guild leaders’ message, which everyone understood, was to use the taxes of Delpon to make up for the guild’s losses.

Hawk shook his head. “A third of the taxes in Delpon is Roland’s, the other two-thirds are the mayor’s.”

“Why would something as important as taxation be split with Roland of F6?” A senior executive immediately cast the first question. “Hawk, are you stupid?”

Hawk retorted, “At the time, the interests were divided, and Roland had yielded much, much more, or else how could we have gotten two mines, half the city’s granaries, the old docks, and the sheriff’s post?”

“No one can get enough profit.” The executive continued to criticize him. “Since Roland was easy to talk to, you should have continued to strike while the iron was hot and gotten the taxation right into our hands as well. If you didn’t get it, you were derelict in your duty—incompetent and taking up a good position for nothing.”

“Roland did the majority of the work, but would receive nothing? Do you really take him for a tool? Do you really think people are that stupid?” Hawk was also furious. He was already in a bad mood, and he immediately spat back, “F**k, h.e.l.l, if you have the ability then you do it, don’t b*t*h if you don’t have the ability—at worst, I’ll give you the post of deputy leader.”

This executive said in a peculiar voice, “Oh, starting to threaten people now and throw away responsibilities once you’re in a foul mood. If you don’t want to be the deputy leader, I don’t mind taking it up.”
