Hundreds of catapults and rams were quickly loaded on the Jiaolong. Looking at the catapults and rams in the cabin, Zeng Yi looked back at the fat man and the others, and said: "The price is like this, according to the original pricing
?”
The fat man smiled and said, "How is that possible? Nowadays, major guilds are in urgent need of these siege equipment. I plan to increase the price based on the original price! A catapult costs 10,000 taels of silver per seat, and a charging cart costs 5,000.
!”
"You are planning to make back your money in one trip!" Zeng Yi estimated the number of siege equipment. According to the price set by the fat man, the siege equipment in the cabin alone was worth more than one million. In order to get the money, the Silver Empire
When it comes to the arms business, the investment is only one million taels of silver.
The fat man looked at Zeng Yi, "It's that simple. In the early stage, just to obtain the four drawings, the money paid plus the "Manuscript for Nephew Memorial" was more than one million. Including the manpower and material resources invested in the later period, minus the payment
Your share, as well as the blood-clothed guard's wages, can earn you at most one hundred thousand taels of silver!"
"At most, one hundred thousand taels! You really have a big appetite!" The arms business is indeed profitable. Although the investment is not small, the profit is indeed a lot. You must know that this is the first batch of goods!
The Jiaolong quickly set sail, and Fatty and others also set off with the ship. After they were on the road, Fatty said next to Zeng Yi: "Should we release the promotional video in advance?"
Zeng Yi originally wanted to keep a low profile, but the current situation is that he urgently needs to let the major guilds know about their arms business. After thinking for a moment, he said: "It can be released in advance, but once it is released, you must be mentally prepared.
Now, the risk factor has doubled!"
Siege equipment is very expensive, and is similar to a catapult. If you want to exert its power, you can't just use one. At least ten of them must be used together to have combat effectiveness. The guilds that can afford it can basically be expected to be big guilds.
, and those small and medium-sized guilds will definitely be covetous of these weapons. Once exposed in advance and too high-profile, they are likely to encounter players who want to take advantage of others with nothing.
The fat man smiled and said, "This is why I want the brothers of the Blood Guard to protect me. Plus, you are a super expert and you are in a port controlled by the imperial court, so safety should be guaranteed!"
"According to your arrangement, there will definitely be no problem with this first batch of business, but I can't personally take charge of it every time, and the blood-clothed guards can't protect them all the time. What I'm worried about is future business!"
"Hey, there is no need to worry about this at all. This first wave of business has gained popularity. In the future, door-to-door delivery will no longer be necessary. We are a monopoly business. Have you ever seen any monopoly business with door-to-door delivery service? Let them
Pick up the goods at your door, love comes or not!”
Halfway through the voyage of the Dragon, the promotional video carefully prepared by the Silver Empire was officially posted on the Internet, and soon the promotional video was discovered by players.
In the film, Silver Empire has multiple cameras, fully demonstrating the functions of catapults and rams. With explosive BGM, it is completely a war short film. Zeng Yi watched the promotional video and had to admire Silver Empire's professionalism.
, through editing and production, the catapult, which only had one catapult at the time of filming, was turned into a war film.
In the short film, in addition to those hot scenes, there is also a rich voice narration, which introduces these siege equipment in detail, and also introduces to the outside world that this is an arms business jointly carried out by the Silver Empire and Nicotine, the number one master in the game.
And a special business license is affixed to tell all players that this is a legal and formal arms business.
This short film quickly caused a sensation among players. Not long after the short film was released, Zhouyi was bombarded with letters from flying pigeons, all asking about these siege equipment.
The first thing to receive was the flying pigeon message from the three bosses. All three of them knew about the arms business, and the three of them were already at the port, waiting for the arrival of the Jiaolong with the blood-clothed guards.
"Second brother, why did you expose yourself in advance?"
"Yeah, what the hell, unidentified players have begun to appear nearby!"
"Hey, my brothers are tired of it. It's for publicity and to increase their popularity!"
Hua Qian Yue Xia soon also sent a letter from Flying Pigeon.
"You asked me to prepare money because of these siege equipment?"
"Yes! With these things, it will be much easier to attack the Persian Empire fortress."
"...Why don't you cooperate with us? You have to cooperate with the Silver Empire. We can give you whatever the Silver Empire can give you!"
"This is an arms business. As a participant in the war, if we cooperate with you, can other guilds still get these arms?"
Huaqian Yuexia and Jingfeng knew very well that their two guilds wanted to compete for hegemony among the large guilds in the capital. If they had the opportunity to obtain such siege equipment, they would never leak it to other guilds. In their opinion, this kind of thing,
It should be hidden in your hands. If you use this advantage to dominate the game, you will make much more money than simply selling arms.
After hearing Zeng Yi's words, the two of them had a tacit understanding and didn't mention it!
Although there is no mention of cooperation, the two of them still build relationships in various ways to get more siege equipment. They are both players in the Western Region War and have fought with NPCs for a long time. Regarding the use of siege equipment in the war,
The role of the enemy was very clear. Because of this situation, both of them wanted to capture more siege equipment.
Being tortured by the two of them was really unbearable, so Zeng Yi promised to leave at least one-third of the amount for them.
The sensation caused by the promotional video was somewhat beyond Zeng Yi's expectations. From the exposure of the short video, the attention of most players of the game has been focused on Zeng Yi and the Silver Empire.
Players are all curious about how Zeng Yi and the others obtained those blueprints. Neither the Silver Empire nor Zeng Yi said anything about this matter. Zeng Yi found it troublesome. If this matter came out, many people would definitely
Accused him of being a pretense for personal gain!
The Silver Empire deliberately concealed the process of obtaining the blueprints in order to continue this monopoly business, preferably forever.
Soon, the Jiaolong arrived at the port controlled by the imperial court. After the Persian Empire's navy was destroyed, several of the most important military ports in the Persian Empire were controlled by the imperial court. The imperial court was too far away from Persia and was indeed unable to deal with Persia.
But as long as it controlled a few military ports, the imperial court would have an absolute advantage on the maritime trade route.
Only people from the imperial court could enter the ports controlled by the imperial court. Zeng Yi, the commander of the Jinyiwei, docked there without any problems. The three bosses and the guys from the Xueyiwei immediately rushed up to the Jiaolong when they saw it docked.
