Chapter 1263: Cost price transaction to supplement precious resources!
More than an hour has passed since Feng Tianmin brought Sean to this quiet reception room.
Boom!
Boom!
The footsteps outside the door finally sounded, light but powerful, like the hands of time ticking.
However, until there was a knock on the door, Sean still could not recover from the simple development document report in front of him.
There are no words to describe his mood at this moment.
If there are no problems with the data and expressions in this document, then the Tianyuan Territory may be developing even faster than the company, far exceeding all his previous estimates.
Who would have thought that in just eight days, they could complete a road that would take an ordinary gathering place fifty years to complete.
Moreover, this section of the road went steadily and quickly, and the foundation was so solid that it was jaw-dropping.
squeak.
With a slight turning sound of the door axis, the door of the reception room was slowly pushed open from the outside.
Sean subconsciously raised his head and his eyes fell on the man who walked in.
Different from the attire of most Blue Star men, the man wore a black shorts and a tailored fit, which not only highlighted his strong physique, but also did not lose his elegant demeanor. He wore a pair of loose bloomers of the same color on his lower body.
, which appears casual yet steady.
As you take steps calmly and powerfully, it seems like every step exudes confidence and strength.
"Old friends, I'm glad to see you again!"
Seeing Sean standing up with a stunned look on his face, the smile on Somo's face couldn't help but grow stronger.
Jian Jian was so unexpected. When he received the news from the search and rescue team, his first reaction was naturally not to believe it.
According to the distance estimated before the Red Spider Caravan left, even under the best circumstances, this trip would take at least a year.
If there is even the slightest accident, the time may be extended to one and a half years, or even two years.
However, counting the time carefully now, only eight short months have passed since Sean left!
If the distance between the foundation's headquarters and Tianyuan territory was only this small.
Even if the New World will undergo drastic changes next, the terrain will expand five times again.
The territory can still follow the route flowed by the red spider caravan, open up trade routes, and regularly go to the foundation headquarters for purchases!
"Long time no see, Lord Soma, you are still as young and promising as before!"
Sean's voice was full of respect and emotion, even somewhat similar to that of the gopher guys in the southern suburbs.
Whether it was the brief confrontation between the caravan guard and the search and rescue team, or what he saw and heard after being brought to this outpost, he was deeply aware of the extraordinary strength and wisdom of the man in front of him.
Sean silently compared them in his mind.
Perhaps the first generation chairman and commander of the company, ‘Nick de la Cruz’, at this age, may not be as dazzling as the man in front of him!
Seeing the respect shown by Sean, Su Mo couldn't help but smile softly in his heart, and then sat down on the sofa opposite with great momentum.
The current Tianyuan Territory is indeed completely different from the original one, as if it has been completely transformed.
Recalling that when the Red Spider Caravan first arrived, Tianyuan Territory was still an infant.
The slightest disturbance may lead to a fatal crisis.
However, eight months later, today's Tianyuan Territory is no longer what it used to be. Even the academy's research institute has been successfully eliminated.
By the way, all the forces in the surrounding Qingang City, except Qingang Sanctuary, are under control.
It's just a fifth-level land caravan from the Foundation. If you still don't know your own weight.
There is no need to dispatch formal troops, just the search and rescue team sent out can easily solve it.
"Haha, it's an honor for me, Mr. Su, to be praised by Mr. Sean for being young and promising. But having said that, the territory can develop today thanks to the help of you old friends. If it weren't for the Red Spider Merchant
With the batch of precious goods that the team previously traded, it would be difficult for the Tianyuan Territory to develop to its current scale.
Come, don’t be polite to me when you return to our Tianyuan territory, as long as you are willing, this is the home of the Red Spider Caravan, and you can stay as long as you want!"
hiss!
This manager is still as humble, enthusiastic, and friendly as before.!
Sean couldn't help but feel shocked. Dozens of different words of praise flashed through his mind, and he almost couldn't suppress the joy that welled up in his heart.
He was still worrying about how to establish a relationship with Su Mo just now, so he slowly proposed the idea of the Red Spider Caravan joining him.
Unexpectedly, he still remembered the old relationship with the Red Spider Caravan and had no airs about it.
This is so rare!
No wonder Tianyuan Territory has developed to its current scale in eight months. With such a manager and lord, it is difficult for the territory to regress even if it wants to!
"Lord Somo, then we are really rude. It just so happened that the caravan brought a lot of goods with it when it came out this time, and planned to sell them around the Tianyuan territory for a while. As an apology for the rash interruption, I have informed Captain Feng in advance.
Now, all the goods needed by Tianyuan Territory can be sold at a cost price of 8, no, 7.5% off!"
Before leaving the store, Sean quickly changed his mind and changed the 20% discount to 75% off.
For many goods whose profits are already very thin, this is no longer considered the cost price but a loss of money.
But in Sean's opinion, the money lost is extremely worth it!
"Oh, you brought a lot of goods this time?"
Sumo nodded with interest.
"I just saw that the caravan added two more tanks. Mr. Xiaon's plan this time is not small."
"Of course, to be fair to you, I should say that your previous predictions were correct. After the great changes in the world, the foundation's life has not been so easy."
With a bitter look on his face, Sean picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip, then recounted what he had experienced in the past eight months.
"After leaving your territory, we followed the signal all the way north to gather at the nearest foundation headquarters. Alas, not to mention the dangers we encountered at the beginning, this world is simply too weird, it really looks like a war.
The world is the same as the one described in the novels of previous eras.
There are lizards that breathe fire, crows that spit out ice arrows, and yes, there are weirdos who can’t die!”
The distance between Tianyuan territory and the foundation's first-level headquarters is about 14,000 kilometers.
According to the location distribution, it should be relatively close to the Northern Alliance, about three thousand kilometers away.
However, when the distance is enlarged, 14,000 kilometers will instantly become 70,000 kilometers, which is equivalent to circling the earth twice.
Of course, this is a zigzag distance on land.
If calculated based on the straight-line flight distance of civil aviation, 70,000 kilometers is only about a quarter, or less.
The distance to Buenos Aires, Argentina is shorter than departing from Capital Airport.
It is roughly equivalent to the distance from the capital to Jinshan, the lighthouse country.
"The first-level foundation headquarters that sent the signal is not the largest headquarters of the foundation, but is built in the Amethyst Highlands of Zoige Prefecture! From there we learned that not only did the foundation not all transmit to this world, colleges, companies,
And the same goes for all the forces, large and small."
"This is fine for companies and colleges, but it is a fatal blow to foundations that already rely on lines!"
Since its birth, the company has firmly implemented a self-operating system. Each super-large city they carefully build is like an independent ecological kingdom, able to freely complete the complete self-circulation process from demand to production to consumption.
.
This highly self-sufficient mode of operation gives enterprises strong endogenous power and stability. Even if they are suddenly forced to take root again in the New World, these cities can rely on their internal healthy operating mechanisms to persevere for hundreds of years without any problems.
Affected by changes in the outside world.
In sharp contrast to the isolated operation model of enterprises is the development model of colleges.
Although the academy also has numerous research institutes and branches, these seemingly complex systems are actually centered on the Holy City and closely united under the banner of the academy.
As long as the holy city of the college still stands, the foundation of the college will remain solid.
Even if all other research institutes are wiped out, after the arrival of the Holy City, the technology and weapons stored in it will be enough to clear the New World for several trips, and there will be no need to worry about subsequent development.
Only the Foundation suffered a major blow during this transmission!
Think of the foundation's headquarters as a beehive, and these scattered large and small caravans are the worker bees in it, responsible for going to every corner of the planet to "gather honey."
The honey collected can not only be used to supply the queen bee, expand the hive, and give birth to more worker bees to expand the power, but can also be used to trade with other forces in exchange for resources needed for the development of the bee colony.
This operating model has enhanced the flexibility and adaptability of the foundation to a certain extent, but now it has also exposed its fatal disadvantages.
As a superpower that relies on link circulation, link transmission is the core mechanism of the foundation's operation. Once a failure occurs, the operation of the entire foundation will be paralyzed instantly.
Just like the dilemma faced by the foundation now, although most of the worker bees were teleported, only a handful of them were teleported from the most important hive.
Since there is no perfect self-circulation mechanism like the corporate city, the hive itself cannot handle the needs of the worker bees at all, directly causing the entire foundation to fall into continuous chaos.
And in comparison, the foundation's organizational structure and operating model are still relatively loose. Due to the checks and balances of power, the various branches and caravans have long lacked close contact and collaboration.
Now even if the headquarters wanted to reassemble the links, it would be difficult to instruct them to do so.
"Then doesn't this mean that the goods you brought back are all backlogged at the headquarters?"
Sumo tried to understand and got Sean's approval.
"Yes, although there are still a large number of machines used to produce various goods in the foundation, they are temporarily difficult to operate due to the lack of raw materials. Therefore, our task this time is also very difficult, which is to exchange these goods for enough
Bring the raw materials back and let those machines start moving!"
Logically speaking, these words cannot be said to buyers.
Especially if you talk about the difficulties that the foundation is currently facing, it will be easy for the other party to use this to bargain for a price.
But now that Sean has raised the price to a loss-making 25% off, he naturally doesn't need to care about this.
Just one sentence.
Sumo showed enough sincerity, and he was willing to repay him with enough sincerity!
"Oh? Raw materials are our specialty at Tianyuan!"
Sumo nodded slightly, but he couldn't help but mourn the future situation of the foundation.
The area of the New World is about to expand five times again, and foundations that are eager to wait for rice to come to the pot may be in trouble.
No matter how fast these dispersed worker bees move, there will still be a window of one and a half years.
Can you survive it?
"This is our brand new cargo list. I believe you will be satisfied with it. The types of cargo in several categories are at least ten times richer than last time!" Sean said, taking out the leather bag he carried with him.
A flat plate.
He clicked twice to unlock it, and then pushed the tablet over along the coffee table.
The way he browsed this cargo list was not much different from last time, but when he saw the eye-catching number in the lower right corner, Sumo's eyelids trembled.
Good guy, there are actually eighty-nine lists of long and short items?
Even though there are many things that are no longer needed in the territory, the amount of goods this time has reached four times compared with the last time.
Picking up the tablet, Somo began to read through it carefully.
The first is the resource category.
Due to the lack of raw materials at the foundation headquarters, those rare metals and elements did not appear this time.
But what was left behind was the 'fuel rod' that those gopher guys in Qinggang City were dreaming about.
A total of six hundred and fifty!
Although the quantity was twice less than what was previously seized in the academy, things have always been rare and valuable since ancient times.
If you take it to the city and use some hunger marketing methods to sell it to the managers, you will definitely be able to sell it for an unexpectedly high price.
Secondly, the resource category also includes many special products unique to other areas of Blue Star, similar to the special algae unique to Qinggang City.
Sumo only glanced at the general area and felt excited about most of the specialties.
This is great stuff, especially several crops with special effects.
Even if the possibility of successful cultivation in the territory is very low, with the blessing of the system and the blessing of the routes of the young players, maybe it can be achieved?
Once it reaches a large scale, Tianyuan Territory will not only export industrial products, small commodities, and raw materials in the future.
A large number of special products will sprout and take root in the territory, and wealth will be brought back from all over the New World.
"Good stuff, these are good stuff!"
"Mr. Sean, please be sure to sell these specialties to our Tianyuan territory. Believe me, we will definitely offer a price that satisfies everyone!"
Sumo clasped his hands and sighed, the satisfied look on his face made Sean sigh in relief.
Indeed, even if ordinary resources are given away for free, they will be of minimal help to the current Tianyuan territory.
But each of these special resources that are so precious that they have never been seen before is a huge addition to the territory's heritage.
It seems that the idea of selecting goods before was indeed correct.
This special manager from Tianyuan, the lord really doesn't like those formed industrial products. Instead, he likes this kind of resources that will help future development and supplement the foundation!
