Village Entrance Economics (Monthly Ticket Request~)

Di Nian Evil Spirit sat cross-legged in an independent space within the city, veins throbbing on its forehead.

It had thought it could open up another stable profit channel through those beastly insectoids, but it had never expected the Insectoid Main Brain to completely disregard its logic.

It had taken all the information Di Nian gave it for granted, treating it as a cost-free gift.

At that moment, Evil Eye's voice rang out. "Bully, stay calm. Perhaps from the logic of insectoid civilization, they simply have no concept of 'trade.'"

"Insectoid civilization believes only in devouring, plundering, adaptation, and evolution—within their civilization's understanding, survival of the fittest explains every problem. There is no such thing as equivalent exchange or mutual benefit."

"For the sake of ultimate evolutionary efficiency, insectoid civilization even deliberately discarded superfluous emotional thought. The interpersonal logic and concept of equal value that you take for granted do not apply to them. No matter how much you give, the Insectoid Main Brain will never feel any gratitude."

Evil Eye paused, then added a painful truth. "That 'thank you' just now was a translation I deliberately refined. If I directly translated the Insectoid Main Brain's original thought, its response only had two words: 'Received.'"

"In its eyes, the civilization data and trade chips you voluntarily delivered had nothing to do with a transaction. They were merely heaven-sent materials suited to its evolution. No matter how much you gave, it would only accept them calmly, without any thought of giving equivalent returns."

After hearing that explanation, Di Nian felt an immense headache coming on.

Unlike players who greedily chased wealth and profit, the insectoids clearly could not be negotiated or played against, nor could they be incorporated into the current Mission Market system.
