Chapter 437 Acquisition
In just one day, the City of Life has undergone earth-shaking changes. The originally empty streets have become lively, and players have been coming and going. Most of the shops in the seven trading areas have been rented. The newly recruited staff have divided the street stall areas for days, and many idle players have selected locations to sell various game items and equipment. The reason why such significant results are in addition to the high work efficiency of the auction house, it is largely because Sanles currently only has the City of Life, which is officially for players in various camps. The commercial areas of the main city of each empire are very crowded and can be moved here. Moreover, in order to save time, most of the life professional players entering the Dark Abyss will choose to go to the Life Professional Zone of the City of Life to find skill mentors, thereby driving players in relevant needs.
After receiving the first batch of funds, the Iron Blood Canglang and the Butler Studio began to build fortifications in the defense area outside the City of Life. The entire City of Life entered the complete stage almost in one day, and the system activated the main city query function in advance.
“It develops faster than expected.”
Yan Feng walked around the trading area in the city center and was quite satisfied. When he returned to the Central Plaza, he was about to enter the auction branch to see the situation. A group of players came towards him. Seeing the other party’s golden server, he sneered in his heart: “Do you pay attention to it now? Unfortunately, it’s too late.”
"You are Yanfeng, right?" Jin Mingcheng took off the elemental master's gloves and smiled, stretched out his right hand to him, "My name is Jin Mingcheng, the general manager of Jinhui Group's Kafilan Capital Trading Platform."
Yan Feng didn't move and replied indifferently: "I wonder what Manager Jin is asking for me?"
Jin Mingcheng retracted his hand awkwardly, feeling quite dissatisfied with Yan Feng's attitude. He looked at the pair of eyes dyed into sapphire through the frozen helmet. Yan Feng's indifferent eyes made him unable to feel any hostility, and he was surprised. The auction house was suppressed for so long, and he thought that the other party would reject him very much. He didn't expect to act so calmly, but his heart was a little wider and said with a kind look: "I wanted to meet you a long time ago, but unfortunately I have never had a chance. It happened to meet tonight. Why not find a place to talk about it?"
"I'm not a businessman, I only know how to play games. If I talk about business, it's a waste. Let's say anything here."
"Only know how to play games? Starting from scratch, your income exceeded one billion in just one month. Virtual online games have been developing for decades. I'm afraid no one can do this. Although you are not a businessman, your mind is better than most businessmen!"
Jin Mingcheng secretly complained, and saw that the other party had no intention of having a long talk, he said bluntly: "Since that's the case, I won't beat around the bush. Jinhui Group wants to acquire the auction house, so you can offer a price."
Yan Feng shook his head and said, "I think it's pretty good now, and I have no plans to change my hands for the time being."
Jin Mingcheng raised his eyebrows, his face changed a lot, then suppressed his emotions, gritted his teeth and threw out his last trump card: "We are willing to pay 10 billion to buy the ownership of the auction house. How about it, is this price enough?"
Wu Er led members of the Jinhui Guild to the auction house to propose a purchase price of 100 million yuan, which increased to 10 billion yuan in just one month. It can be seen that Jinhui Group's determination was almost pounding his chest and bleeding heavily.
Yan Feng looked excited: "10 billion is indeed a lot. Unfortunately, I handed over the auction house to Bluebird Studio, which now only accounts for 70% of the share. The contract is valid for a long time, and I cannot meet your requirements. However, my electronic patent "Eden Encyclopedia" in Eden is exclusive to me. How about selling it to you for 10 billion?"
Although game item trading is a huge commercial field, auction houses currently only account for more than 20%. "Eden Encyclopedia" dominates the entire market, and it is almost impossible to be shaken. It is a cost-free virtual product, and its potential value is still above the auction house. However, the reason why "Eden Encyclopedia" has such value is because of the existence of Yanfeng. "Eden Encyclopedia" is collected by many elite players, and it is inevitable that it is of varying quality. According to the user's praise, each recorder is divided into five levels: ordinary, intermediate, advanced, special and authoritative. Almost every comment he left on it has been rated as authoritative by players. The annotation mark has become a symbol of authority, and even every strategy recorded is regarded as a classic. Now "Eden Encyclopedia" is firmly in his hands. Without his support and relevant guilds, this virtual information will lose its luster in an instant.
Jin Mingcheng fell into hesitation after hearing Yan Feng's words, but everyone behind him sighed and began to whisper and talk.
"The value of "Eden Encyclopedia" is far above the auction house. With the current situation, it may take less than half a year to recover all costs. Do he really plan to sell it?"
"I think he is just fooling us and has no sincerity to trade."
...
Jin Mingcheng turned a deaf ear to the discussions of the people. He is now considering the feasibility of the trading platform taking over "Eden Encyclopedia". On the surface, it is just a single virtual material, but it covers a very wide range and is not as complicated as the auction house. He can't figure it out for a while and asked tentatively: "Are you really planning to resell it?"
Yan Feng said as if he saw through his thoughts: "Do you think I'm fooling you? "Eden Encyclopedia" does have more potential than an auction house, but he has to spend a lot of time every day to organize it, which is not as easy as an auction house, and he can enjoy the fruits."
If it were an ordinary person, Jin Mingcheng would definitely believe it, but the other party was a smart person and had to think carefully. However, 10 billion is not a small amount after all. In this way, the acquisition of the auction house would be put on hold, and hesitantly said: "If you are really sincere, how about we make a confirmation letter?"
"Yes, the deadline is one week." Yan Feng replied cheerfully.
At this time, the beautiful woman behind Jin Mingcheng who was in charge of the paperwork came forward and asked in a low voice: "Manager Jin, do you want to give up the auction house for the time being?"
"The auction house acquisition is not a matter of one or two days. We still have time. This confirmation letter is a one-way promise and we have no losses."
Jin Mingcheng switched to a private chat channel, and even the rest of the guild couldn't hear it. He handed the confirmation letter of the document beauty to Yan Feng. Seeing that the latter had just read it for a while, he signed the name without hesitation. His previous anger shone, and his face regained a "commercial smile" again, and he stretched out his right hand habitually: "We will definitely reply to you within a week."
"It's better not to let me down."
Yan Feng directly ignored his business etiquette and walked around the crowd toward the auction branch. His last tone was full of expectations, making people feel that he was eager to throw away the burden of "Eden Encyclopedia" and obtain huge amounts of funds. However, Yan Feng knew in his heart that he would not be "disappointed" no matter what.
It's better if Jinhui Group is unwilling to acquire "Eden Encyclopedia", but he can delay at least one week. This period of time is enough for him to do a lot of things. If Jinhui Group is willing to acquire it, it's better. The guilds they support are basically on the side of the World Guild Alliance. Most of them don't want to cooperate with Jinhui Guild. As long as you have a little effort, you can make "Eden Encyclopedia" an empty virtual material.
"If I really bought it, it would be stupider than a pig. They shouldn't be so stupid..."
Once Jinhui Group acquires "Eden Encyclopedia", he can make the Yang Group completely counterattack. At the same time, Eden develops a large-scale auction house and approaches the trading platform, shaking Jinhui's throat. At that time, Jinhui Group is restrained inside and outside, and there is a large gap of 10 billion yuan, so it is really difficult to turn over again.
Of course, the proposal to transfer "Eden Encyclopedia" was just a maze he set up at will. According to the original plan, he could also push Jinhui Group into a dead end step by step. The so-called open guns are easy to avoid, but hidden arrows are difficult to defend. Now they are external guns and internal arrows, and it is difficult to not die.
