That night, Chu Tian had just handed in the nine soul essences to complete the evolution of the beauty. Before he could see what new attributes had been added, he was kicked offline by the system.
I had no choice but to take off my gaming helmet and lay on the bed bored.
Ever since he came into contact with this heroic world, when did he go to bed around ten o'clock in the evening, usually after one or two o'clock?
"Forget it, let's go and play with them."
Thinking like this, Chutian jumped out of bed and jumped out of the room. He looked down from the second floor. The girls were indeed used to sleeping late. Hao Ying and Xu Ting were leaning on the sofa watching romance movies. They talked about this for a while.
The male star is really handsome, and then he says that the female star is really ugly, giving the most powerful criticism to the handsome guys and girls on TV.
Sister Hong and Feng Yun each have a laptop. The office girl is typing quickly on the keyboard. Wenwen is busy with some processed data piled beside their elbows, helping them with calculations.
"How is it going?"
Chutian moved a bench and sat next to Sister Hong, looking at the various data displayed on her computer screen.
Sister Hong took off her thin-wire glasses and rubbed her brows with a headache: "There are currently 3,761 types of equipment known in the game, divided into more than 20 major categories, not to mention hundreds of small categories of materials and medicines, tens of thousands of them.
The ratio of known effects to unknown effects is as high as 2:8, a full four times difference."
"Isn't this bad? The more people don't know about it, the more we can make money in it." Chu Tian picked up a piece of information and read it.
Sister Hong smiled bitterly and put a pile of information in front of Chu Tian: "The problem is that these are all low-level materials. Even if they are useful, they will not be of much use in the later stage. What's more, more and more people will reach level 30 in the future. What do they need for manufacturing?
The materials and the value of the manufactured items are still unknown, and our current intelligence network has not yet reached that level."
"In other words, there are too few people?" Chu Tian frowned, understanding why Sister Hong said so much.
Sister Hong looked around and nodded helplessly: "Now the only ones who can do this work are me, Xiaoyun, Wenwen, and at most you are hello. Even if we add Xiaoying and Xiaoting, there is only one real person in each of the six people."
Professional game businessmen have hundreds of employees, and our information processing capacity simply cannot compete with them.”
Chu Tian laughed when he heard her talking like this, and tsked his fingers: "Sister Hong, you are wrong."
Pointing to myself: "You know who I am"
Sister Hong nodded to show that she knew not only his identity as a black cat, but also the background behind him
"Then do you know how many people I had when I started from scratch?"
Sister Hong shook her head and said she didn't know. I'm afraid not many people in this world know that. All they know is that the black cat Chutian used to be is a myth. There is no way to know the history of his fortune. Listening to Chutian talk about his past, Feng Yun and Wenwen
I also stopped what I was doing and became interested.
Chu Tian spread his right hand and revealed five fingers: "If five is only counted in terms of making money, there are actually only three of them operated by three people!"
"This is impossible!"
Sister Hong shouted, causing Xu Ting and Hao Ying to look over, wondering what was going on here.
Chu Tian waved his hands to them, saying that it was none of their business and that he could go watch their romantic drama.
She didn't expect that she would lose her composure like this. Sister Hong took a few deep breaths, and the ups and downs of her chest made Chu Tian's eyes go straight. Feng Yun coughed to wake him up.
He smiled and said, "What's impossible?"
"A sales process requires..." Sister Hong spread her fingers and prepared to give Chu Tian a good business lesson.
But Chu Tian took over the topic: "One sells, one buys, and one collects information."
Sister Hong was stunned for a moment, and finally said: "You are right to say that."
Chu Tian smiled even more proudly: "It's not about buying and selling more than anyone else, but it's about being more discerning than someone else. I think I've already told you, Sister Hong."
"I said..."
He moved a stool directly next to her, and waved to Feng Yun and Wenwen: "You guys should come and take a look too."
After Chu Tian finished speaking, he grabbed the control of the laptop and skillfully operated Sister Hong's transaction database interface. Her eyes were filled with brilliance. His current actions showed that he was not very familiar with this system. She was not even familiar with some of the detailed operations.
Very understanding
However, Chutian did not pay attention to these things. Although the incident caused irreparable damage to his brain and ruined his future as a combat professional in the game, it did not affect his strength in trading at all.
In fact, if we really want to dig deeper, Chutian is called a god in the gaming industry, not for his fighting, but for his trading. He is called the God of Wealth by some people in the industry. It's like buying and selling with him in the stock market, and you will never lose money.
It's a pity that more people pay attention to his miracles in combat. They want to imitate him so much that the aura of the God of War hides his true strength, making it unknown to too many people.
"I'll take this soul crystal as an example. The current buying and selling price is 2 silver coins. On the one hand, it's so unpopular that not many people use it; on the other hand, many people don't know what uses it has.
, I feel that throwing 1 copper coin in the store is not worth it and gradually evolved into this relatively stable price.”
Then he called up another table, which was a time-sharing price trend chart.
"But since some graveyard players reached level 30 and learned how to create undead puppets, look at this trend."
The image shows that the current price has a very slight upward trend, but there is no doubt that it is rising.
Sister Hong was unsure and said: "Xiaotian, do you mean we should hurry up and buy in large quantities now?"
Chu Tian shook his head with a smile: "It is true that you can make money by buying this thing in large quantities, but the money you make is a small amount of money combined with the energy we spend, and the time is not cost-effective. The most important thing is that the demand for this thing is not large, and the explosive point is already known, which leads to this thing
The increase will not be too high. If I am not wrong in my estimation, the maximum increase of this thing to 5 silver coins is considered to be unprecedented."
Wenwen was most interested in buying and selling, and curiously asked: "Why are there only 5 silver coins?"
"A soul-inhabiting puppet requires 20 soul crystals, which means it requires 100 silver coins to buy, which is the cost of 1 gold coin. After counting the failure rate of item creation and the player's energy, this thing can be sold for a maximum of 2 gold coins.
Gold coins are exchanged for a chance of resurrection. This is the limit that mass players can bear now. Don’t ask me why it is for mass players. The attributes of this item destined that its consumer group can only be mass players, such as us. I learned to make this by myself, and then spent a piece of it every day.
Collecting and manufacturing in about an hour can completely produce the weight that the six of us need in a day, let alone those larger groups, such as King of the World, Zero Dimension, etc. They have dedicated life players, and they will not spend this money to bring new people in the group.
Shishasha is definitely enough for them to use."
As he spoke, he clicked on the properties of the soul-resident puppet on the screen: "The most important thing is that it is the most basic manufacturing item in the art of making undead puppets. There is no limit on the number of life skills that players can learn in the game, which means that everyone can learn it.
If this situation is taken into account, this soul-carrying puppet may not even be worth a gold coin in the later stage. This is still the result of the restriction that only graveyard players can create it."
"You mean to try to find high-grade materials?" Sister Hong seemed to understand a little bit.
Chu Tian shook his head again: "What I mean by this is that the value of low-grade by-products is not high and it is not worth investing too much energy. It is true that high-grade materials have higher profit margins, but they also carry higher risks."
Seeing everyone's incomprehensible faces, Chu Tian gave another personal example: "For example, the acid potion we dug out from the ruins of the research institute, how much do you think it is worth?"
The girls didn't answer, but their expressions said it was worthless
Chu Tian suddenly slapped the table and shouted: "What if I said I was willing to accept 20 gold coins for one?"
"You're crazy!"
Now everyone screamed and exchanged 20 gold coins for something that seemed worthless.
Chu Tian sat down with a smile: "I have a task at hand that requires 5 acid potions. Its value after completion will be much greater than 100 gold coins. The most important thing is that the dungeon is reset every three days, which means that all 5 of them need to be collected.
It takes me 15 days. In these 15 days, I am confident that I can create a value far greater than 100 gold coins in the continent of Ellolon. From this point of view, am I still stupid for doing this?"
Chutian's words made the girls fall into deep thought.
"So whether an item is valuable depends on whether the other party needs it or not, and on the other hand it is its own possible value." was the final word for his speech.
"Then, Xiaotian, what do you think we should do?"
Chu Tian smiled on the surface, but secretly sighed in his heart. He didn't expect that Sister Hong still hadn't mastered the trick after talking so much. He really wanted to see how powerful Sister Hong was in the past when she dominated the business world.
Maybe he thinks too highly of them. There are so many twists and turns here that it really can’t be explained in a few words. If he really wanted to understand it, he could write a book about it.
"If you want to make a small amount of money and make a steady profit, think about the potion materials. Potion is a necessary consumable for every player. Its materials will only appreciate in value and will never depreciate. Of course, its profit margin is not high, even if the finished product is
Similarly, if it weren't for some unnatural status potions, I'm afraid not many people would be willing to pay high prices. Of course, there are bound to be many people competing in this market. How many people are willing to do a risky business? Unfortunately, its profits are directly proportional to the investment. The more investment, the more people invest.
, the more you can earn per unit of time. If you want to make a lot of money, I suggest you think about armor.”
After hearing what he said, Feng Yun immediately asked: "Why not weapons? Everyone knows that weapons are important."
Chu Tian smiled: "You know, on behalf of others, do you know what the market share of learning weapons, armor, and jewelry in the game I used to play?"
Feng Yun shook his head
"5:2:3! It means that while two people are learning to make armor, five people are making weapons and three people are making jewelry!" The lamented voice added: "It is precisely because most people feel that making armor is not profitable, and in the end it is harmful to them.
The problem is that a high-end armor is more expensive than a weapon. At that time, a player needed six partial armors for his whole body. It is not difficult to imagine the profits. Armor materials are cheaper than weapon materials."
Wenwen murmured: "Monopoly!"
"Yes, it was a monopoly on weapons and jewelry at that time. There were too many people studying in the two major industries, and there was no unified coordination by the chamber of commerce, which ultimately led to vicious competition between them. The prices plummeted day by day. In comparison, in the armor industry, due to the lack of learning,
There are few people, no more than ten people click here and there. In the end, they unite to drive up the price of armor. Especially in the late game, a top-quality armor is more important than a top-quality weapon. Those players who don't buy it mean that they can't download the dungeon or complete the mission.
It is impossible to rely on the explosion rate of monsters. It is undoubtedly a fantasy. There are cases where high-level monsters do not explode equipment for a week. The purpose is to encourage players to produce. Otherwise, people’s hard work to learn such high life skills will not be in vain.”
Sister Hong suddenly said: "Xiaotian, do you want us to start purchasing armor materials?"
Chu Tian clicked on the various materials and data displayed on the computer screen: "These are what outsiders say. If you ask me, Sister Hong, what kind of goods should we stock, I can only tell you that there are only two kinds..."
"One kind of mission material, another kind of... war material"
