Chapter 112 An inch of time and an inch of gold

I had just discussed it with Shu Yuyi when I went online, and this money-lover immediately took me back to Changqing City.

"Shu Yu, I calculated the time. Even if our speed can be accelerated and the deal is reached just after landing, plus the 5 seconds of the scroll, the time can be controlled to 30 seconds, but on your side, within 30 seconds

It is impossible to buy potion from the mountain gate and then return to the square."

Shuyu pondered for a few seconds: "The senior sister who sells potions at Zhuhai Peak is not far from the entrance. It takes a minute to go back and forth, but I can just buy the potions while crushing the teleportation scroll, and then return to Changqing

City Square, this can save half a minute, and the time will be right!"

I was shocked: "Just half a minute away with a teleportation scroll?"

Shu Yu nodded with a matter-of-fact expression: "When you come down, they will pay the handling fee. The total income of the three of you is 4 silver coins. Your transmission fee is 0.6 silver coins. The maximum speed is every two minutes, which is 1.2 per person.

The income from silver coins is 36 silver coins per person per hour, which is only 3 more than before.

Then if I also use the teleportation scroll, compressing the time to half a minute, the cost of one trip is 1.1 silver coins, and the profit is 2.9 silver coins. Calculated on average, one trip costs about 0.96 silver coins, 120 times an hour, a total of 348 silver coins, and each time

116 silver coins per person! Of course, this is the limit state. If players can’t consume so much, we will go back to the old way, slower but cost-saving!”

I……

Junior sister, is this all calculated mentally...

I had no choice but to agree: "Okay, I'll do as you say, but... there may not be so many players buying potions. 120 trips per hour is 240,000 bottles of potions, how do I feel..."

Shu Yu sighed: "Oh, Zu An, you are so stupid. These potions are paid in cash when they are delivered. If they have too many potions, they will definitely tell you. Besides,

Think about how many bottles of potions we bought every day when we were leveling up!"

I thought about it: "We used to get 200 bottles a day, maybe more than 100 bottles?"

Shuyu pursed his lips: "It should be around this value. Our leveling is faster and the consumption level is slightly less, but you are right to calculate it this way. In terms of how many copper coins each player can produce online for 6 hours a day,

How many potions can this money be exchanged for? If the game data is balanced, players will spend every day on potions and teleportation scrolls.

The expenditure on shaft repair equipment is infinitely close to his daily economic output. This is the data balance of the Gate of Wonders!"

This is really the case!

Instead of calculating how many bottles of potions a player spends every day, it is better to calculate it directly like this... Oh my god, Junior Sister is such a genius!

Under normal circumstances, 200 copper coins per person per day is enough for a teleportation scroll. Some of them can even be used without spending a penny. Repairing equipment is also relatively cheap. 100 copper coins is enough. The economic output of a day has been calculated before. Professional players earn copper coins.

That is about 2,000. For non-professional players, the speed of upgrading and killing monsters is even slower. It only costs more than a thousand a day. Calculated in this way, the second-level potion is consumed about 100 per day, and the first-level potion is about 150... No, this is

Those who are self-sufficient, and those who are advanced players who need to buy silver coins...

I was still calculating silently... then I heard Shuyu say next:

"Zu'an, don't forget it... Let me calculate it with you. Shanghai said it has a population of 25 million, but in fact it may be close to 30 million. At least 1 million of them are settled in this game! Not counting active high-end players,

One million people consume 100 bottles every day, which is 100 million bottles! The price difference we make here seems to be huge profits, but in fact, with such a large population base, for Zhongmiamen, the money we earn is

It’s just a drop in the bucket! They don’t care about the money we make.”

After Shuyu said this, I finally understood that our reselling of potions should not be considered a bug in the system, because after all, these are the rules he set up himself.

"Then let's work hard to fix it!" I was so excited that we started working on it right away!

Shuyu shook his head and said to me seriously:

"Zu'an, you are too happy too early! At this stage, there is still a lot of game time that is given as a bonus when purchasing a helmet from Zhongmiaomen. Zhongmiaomen company will not use these currencies and props to make money, but

They value balance most, and once the balance of the currency is broken, we will be sanctioned!"

I……

"Shu Yu, please say something that I can understand..."

The junior sister sighed and stroked her forehead helplessly:

"Just... pay attention to moderation! The existence mechanism of this product allows us to make profits on the surface, but in fact it saves players about 17% of the potion currency loss in disguise! Do you understand this!"

I nodded, I understand this...

Shuyu continued: "What we earn from this is the 17%

Potions consume part of the money, but let me tell you, the currency issued by the Gate of Wonders every day, that is, the currency exploded from killing monsters, must match the currency data consumed by players to ensure that the game operates normally and the currency does not depreciate.

! Let’s put it this way, part of the currency saved by players will eventually be sold to players in need, that is, cashed out. However, if our scale is too large and affects the currency volume of the entire Gate of Wonders world, it will bring

A serious currency crisis is coming. To put it simply, it means currency depreciation and exchange rate decline!”

I……

"Can you be more specific...I'm a little confused..."

Shuyu:……

"To put it bluntly, although the potions we resell are a drop in the bucket in terms of the total consumption of players, in such a huge monetary volume, let alone 1% of the data, even 1‰ may cause a chain reaction!

The current ratio of silver coins is 1:165, and it fluctuates a lot. When it was high, it was 1:172, and when it was low, it was 1:162. What I want to say is that our potion will depreciate the currency! So we are optimistic

As long as this ratio reaches 1:160, we will stop selling it, and we will start selling it again when it returns to 1:164/5!"

I understand this... It's like banks printing money, similar to inflation... It's not right, it seems a little more complicated than that. Anyway, it's about economic currency and market stuff... I don't understand it at all.

"Shu Yu, I know what you mean, but the day before yesterday also happened at 1:157. Isn't it too high to set 1:160?"

Shuyu breathed a sigh of relief: "You understand... In fact, our range can be larger, but once it reaches more than 1:150, the exchange rate will no longer be safe for us. Furthermore, the reaction of the exchange rate

It is not instantaneous, there are time fluctuations, and the larger the space we reserve, the smaller the impact.

I'm afraid that there will be a large number of complaints from players and professional studios at that time, and by that time, it will indeed affect the overall balance. We just want to make a fortune silently, and we can't make quick money. It's a matter of killing the goose that lays the eggs.

But you can't do it!

In actual operation, it still depends on the player’s daily currency explosion rate to adjust the proportion of sales termination!”
