Chapter 96 The two sides have reached an agreement! Three years!
You know, even a junior blacksmith can be very useful!
A junior blacksmith can create all kinds of ordinary equipment. Even if it is to create black iron-level equipment, there is a high success rate.
By constantly building equipment and accumulating experience, you can improve your skill level and get promoted!
Each professional level is the same as the skill level, divided into primary, intermediate, advanced, expert, master, and grandmaster levels....
Not to mention thousands of blacksmiths!
However, having a blacksmith is not enough. A large amount of forging materials are needed. After all, it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw.
Moreover, don't think that training a blacksmith is easy, it all costs money.
Forging equipment has a success rate, especially when an apprentice first starts forging, the failure rate is even as high as 100%.
Even for a junior blacksmith, the success rate of forging ordinary equipment is only half, and the success rate of forging black iron-level equipment is probably only one-tenth!
It can only succeed once out of ten times, and the remaining nine times it will fail, and all the materials invested will be wasted!
Therefore, when junior blacksmiths build equipment, they basically lose money!
Only when you reach the intermediate level as a blacksmith can you barely maintain a balanced income!
When you reach the level of a senior blacksmith, your success rate increases significantly, and only the equipment you create can make money!
Everyone knows how important a blacksmith is, but in the early days, when everyone was trying their best to develop and expand their territory, there were very few guilds that were willing to spend money to train blacksmiths.
Even for large guilds such as Baihua Palace, the funds invested in blacksmiths are far less than the expansion of their power.
Only takes up a very small part of all resources!
"There are several main aspects of our cooperation with Master Qin!"
"One is that you provide unlimited ore resources for Little Snow Lotus to cast. We will share the equipment forged by her 70/30, and we have the right of first refusal to purchase the equipment!"
"Second, Xiao Xuelian can teach blacksmithing skills to your people, teach a group of junior blacksmiths, and even teach them how to forge various types of equipment! Of course, our guild will also send some players or blacksmiths to learn with you.
!”
"Third, we provide the forger, and you provide the raw materials and site. We will split the forged equipment 50-50, and we also have the right of first refusal!"
"Fourth, the equipment forged by you will be purchased at a 40% discount..."
Gypsophila immediately made several conditions!
"The Baihua Palace is a lion's mouth!"
Qin Yuan sneered, this was almost an overlord's terms, how could he agree to it.
Moreover, Baihua Palace took out Xiao Xuelian, who possesses the 'Secret Technique of Forging Weapons' and the 'Proper Way of Forging Weapons', in order to use Qin Yuan's resources to train Xiao Xuelian to improve her professional level.
The level experience of blacksmithing depends entirely on the number of equipment crafted!
However, it is not that the two sides have nothing to talk about.
Baihua Palace made excessive demands, just waiting for Qin Yuan to bargain.
This is something that benefits both parties.
It’s nothing more than talking about a result that both parties are satisfied with!
In the end, after several rounds of negotiations between the two parties, several major agreements were made.
First, Qin Yuan signed a contract to obtain the three-year ownership of Xiao Xuelian. During this period, Xiao Xuelian stayed in Qin Yuan's territory and was not allowed to leave without Qin Yuan's order!
During this period, Qin Yuan must guarantee to provide Xiao Xuelian with an unlimited amount of the resources she needs to forge the equipment. Baihua Palace has the first right to purchase any equipment forged by Xiao Xuelian (gold level and below), and the price is the market price of the product.
2.5% off (equivalent to 50%, but Baihua Palace gets the rights to the equipment first!). If you don’t buy it, the equipment will belong to Qin Yuan! For equipment above gold level, another agreement will be made!
Second, the equipment drawings obtained by Qin Yuan and Baihua Palace will be given priority to Xiao Xuelian, and the number of drawings per year shall not be less than ten; at the same time, Xiao Xuelian must ensure that 30 junior blacksmiths are trained for Qin Yuan every month for three years.
There are a total of 1080 blacksmiths, and they teach them the secret skills of forging weapons and the methods of making all equipment!
Within three years, Baihua Palace can send up to a thousand people to follow and learn. Like Xiaoxuelian, they must stay in Qin Yuan's territory before the end of the contract. Qin Yuan will provide materials and venues for the equipment they forge.
Share, Baihua Palace does not have the right to purchase this part of equipment!
Considering the time factor and the large number of things to teach, each side has two thousand people, which is not the limit. If there are too many people, Xiao Xuelian will not be able to teach them!
Third, Qin Yuan’s side enjoys a 30% discount on the equipment forged using the blueprints provided by Baihua Palace! The purchase price of the equipment forged by those not provided by Baihua Palace is 20% off!
This is just the general content of the contract. There are many details and division of responsibilities, so I won’t describe them one by one!
In short, in the past three years, Xiao Xuelian has been owned by Qin Yuan and has been responsible for teaching a group of blacksmiths to him!
The reason why the three-year period is set is that it is a period acceptable to both parties.
He didn't want to train a master caster with all his efforts, only to run away in a few days.
It seems that Baihua Palace suffers a bit from this contract, as it has to spend money to buy equipment built by its own people.
But the other party is considering long-term development and values the future!
In the past three years, they just sent Xiao Xuelian and a group of people to work for Qin Yuan for free, but Qin Yuan was able to cultivate a group of talents for them!
This can also show the courage of Baihua Palace. It has provided a thousand people to work for free for three years. It is really not something that ordinary forces can do!
However, when the contract ends in three years, these are important properties of Baihua Palace!
Maybe everyone is at least a senior blacksmith, and everyone can forge many kinds of equipment!
Especially Xiao Xuelian, with the focused training from both parties, may become a master of casting, or even higher!
What Qin Yuan is considering is to squeeze out these free labors in the past three years!
As for what will change in three years, who knows.
It is even uncertain whether he and Baihua Palace can maintain their sweet cooperation for three years!
"Hey, little girl, you will be mine from now on!"
Qin Yuan looked at the shy little Xuelian. He was really looking forward to whether this little loli would be as shy as she is now when she wields a sledgehammer!
"Um!"
Little Xuelian's face is slightly red, and her cute little head is shaking up and down!
"Then Village Chief Qin, Xiao Xuelian and the rest of them will be handed over to you together!"
Man Tianxing said to Qin Yuan.
Although the control of the people will be given to Qin Yuan within three years, the Baihua Palace is not without its benefits.
That is to get the right to purchase some equipment, as well as discounts!
"Xiao Xuelian, when you work under Master Qin in the future, you must work hard and don't be lazy!"
"Of course, if someone bullies you, you must tell your sister!"
"Now, this secret art of forging weapons and the drawings of soft hedgehog armor are yours!"
Man Tianxing touched Xiao Xuelian's little head and looked at Qin Yuan, as if he was saying something.
"...I feel like I've been tricked by you!"
Qin Yuan took out the blueprint of the 'Broken Wind Bow' he had just obtained from Man Tianxing and handed it to Xiao Xuelian.
"Xiao Xuelian will be yours from now on, I won't suffer any loss if I give it to Xiao Xuelian!"
Gypsophila eyes were curved like a crescent moon and he said.
"Of course, I'm not as stingy as your guild!"
"Send another bronze-level equipment blueprint!"
Qin Yuan handed over another equipment drawing, which was the drawing of the 'Qinghong Flowing Light Sword' obtained from the Green Wolf King.
"Master Qin is still very grand!"
Man Tianxing looked surprised, she did not expect Qin Yuan to have such a treasure in his hand.
It is indeed right to cooperate with Qin Yuan!
"Okay, I'll let someone make arrangements for their next affairs!"
Qin Yuan said again.
Qin Yuan immediately sent someone to notify Fu Xiangren and asked him to arrange for Xiao Xuelian and the people from the Baihua Palace Guild.
It's best to place them in a secret base, where even they don't know their exact location!
"Then I'll bother you, Master Qin. I'll first..."
Just as Man Tianxing was mid-sentence, there was a roar outside, followed by waves of shouting and killing, and everyone's expressions couldn't help but change!
