Prices in each neighborhood in the outer city are different for various reasons.
The weapons sold in some neighborhoods are more expensive, the armor sold in some neighborhoods is more expensive, the medicines sold in some neighborhoods are more expensive...
And this gave birth to a profession in the early days called neighborhood business troupe.
The main business is buying and selling.
It was only later that the cost of neighborhood portals was increased, resulting in lower business income, and this special profession gradually disappeared.
Some of the well-connected business groups can get some discounts on teleportation from the teleportation receptionists they are familiar with, which is cheaper than others teleporting across blocks. They use this advantage to set up "companies" with similar businesses, specifically responsible for teleporting for others.
Deliver goods on the block.
The best one among them is Kangaroo Express, whom Li Zheng met before.
Because there are so many residents in the first fifty blocks that venture into the wilderness to perform missions, there is a huge demand for some resources to enhance their strength. Although various crops that can develop genetic abilities are not favored by some races, most residents
Still quite popular.
Taking Menghua Pavilion as an example, Huaxiangyu delivers tens of thousands of mid- to high-end crops to dozens of shops in Block 7 every month.
Even with such a huge transaction volume, sometimes supply exceeds demand.
Occasionally, when the terminal issues compulsory tasks, those shops selling crops will be sold out.
Therefore, the demand for culture fluid that can accelerate crop growth is much greater than that of other neighborhoods, and the price has naturally increased. The market price is half more than when Kangel originally purchased it!
Kanger bought the intermediate culture medium from Li Zheng at a 30% discount, which cost about 1,050 white crystal coins per 100 ml. This was the discount the Cota brothers got from the 1,500 price after bargaining with the black market.
, the actual original price is two thousand white crystal coins and one hundred milliliters.
As for the enhanced version of the intermediate culture medium, the price is naturally higher than that of the ordinary version. Based on the price of Kanggel's neighborhood, it is about between 3,000 white crystal coins and 4,000 white crystal coins.
Prices are higher in Block 7, so the price Li Zheng gave Menghua Pavilion was 5,500 white crystal coins for 100 ml of enhanced intermediate culture solution!
"If you want a large enough quantity, I can give you a discount on this price. It only costs 5,000 white crystal coins per 100 ml." Li Zheng readily gave the price.
You can buy high-end culture fluid at this price in Block 950. (That is the block of Kanger Botanical Garden. I was confused before and always wrote it as 902.)
Hua Xiangyu calculated it in her mind and felt that the quotation was quite reasonable, so she didn't bother to negotiate the price and directly agreed: "Okay, based on one hundred milliliters, give me one hundred thousand copies first."
For every 100 milliliters of culture solution, the time it takes to take effect varies depending on the level of the crop being cultivated.
The higher the level of crops, the easier it is for the same dose of culture solution to be absorbed, resulting in a greatly shortened duration.
Menghua Pavilion's business is extremely extensive. Just by looking at it, Li Zheng could see that there were more than 10,000 crops growing there.
In comparison, these 100,000 copies of the culture medium are more like samples used by Hua Xiangyu to test the effects, rather than a formal order.
But for Li Zheng, it was already a huge business.
After completing this order, you can get the Black Dragon Spear directly!
"The quantity is relatively large. I don't have enough stock here. It will take some time to deliver." Li Zheng smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that the first botanical garden would have such a big appetite. At first, he thought he would need to visit a few more. But now it looks like
Just fulfilling orders from Menghua Pavilion is enough for him to keep busy.
It is normal to have insufficient inventory. For example, Menghua Pavilion does not have all flower crops in stock. The shops in the neighborhood often place orders first, and then she starts planting and cultivating them here, and then delivers the products after they are produced.
Hua Xiangyu asked: "How many days will it take to deliver the goods?"
"Within ten days." Li Zheng thought for a while, except for purchasing some necessary raw materials, it actually doesn't take much time to make the culture solution: "I can send it to you in batches within ten days, and it won't delay your use here.
.”
"Ten days..." Menghua Pavilion is not in a hurry for the orders it is accepting now. The culture fluid purchased this time will be used for bidding in the next competition with other botanical gardens, so Hua Xiangyu nodded immediately: "Ten days, ten days."
, but only one-tenth of the deposit can be given first, and the rest will be paid according to the proportion for each batch of goods delivered, until all is paid off."
"No problem." Li Zheng smiled and extended his hand: "It's a pleasure to cooperate."
Hua Xiangyu understood it, stretched out her hand to shake his hand, and said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to cooperate."
After the business was negotiated, the two drafted a contract on the spot, each checked and filled in the gaps, and revised some ambiguous clauses in the contract. Finally, the two of them signed, and the deal became effective.
The total amount was 50,000 red crystal coins, one-tenth of which was 5,000. To Hua Xiangyu, it was just a small amount of money. After the contract was signed, it was transferred to Li Zheng without blinking an eye.
After receiving the payment, Li Zheng was in a great mood. He happily saw that the deposit in the inscription card finally exceeded four digits (red crystal coins, the number was too long when converted to white crystal coins). He counted it back and forth several times before putting the inscription card away.
.
"By the way." Li Zheng remembered something and asked, "I heard in other neighborhoods before that crops that can develop genetic abilities are monopolized by laboratories, aren't they? Why are there so many fire sparks here in the garden owner's house?"
The projects managed by Kanger Botanical Garden only include delicious fruits, but not a single crop related to genetic ability.
At that time, Kanger, an old vine tribe, told Li Zheng that the genetically capable crops were all controlled by the laboratory, and the botanical garden had no business qualifications.
"It's very simple." Hua Xiangyu pointed to a table not far away, which had the business license provided by the terminal when the botanical garden registered: "Because Menghua Pavilion has the dual qualifications of a botanical garden and a flower crop laboratory, I can also operate here.
Genetically capable crops.”
Li Zheng realized at once that Hua Xiangyu had just said not long ago that Yanhuahua was a newly cultivated variety by her.
This detail showed that Menghua Pavilion also had laboratory qualifications at the time, but I didn't even notice it.
He asked again: "The garden owner said before that Block 4 was once the residence of the Tianluo tribe. What would happen if the terminal did not allocate Block 4 to Aquablue Star players?"
"You Aquablue Star players have not yet entered the outer city in large numbers. You are really lucky to be able to get an exclusive block with such a high number!"
Speaking of this, Hua Xiangyu said with emotion: "When the Diehua clan entered the outer city, the terminal only assigned a very low-numbered block to us. After the one-month exclusive period, almost no residents in other blocks were willing
When I settled there, it almost turned into a ghost street.
Later, with our talent in cultivating flower crops, our family started from scratch and moved into a block with a higher number. The terminal assigned to us became the largest flower cultivation base in the entire outer city.
And I also saved a lot of money at that time, slowly developed, and finally settled down in Block 7, and built Menghua Pavilion to its current scale."
Li Zheng nodded thoughtfully, which meant that the terminal rewarded him with the fourth block, which was equivalent to saving Aquablue Star players the trouble of promotion in disguise.
In one step, you can enter the top neighborhood that most outer-city residents dream of.
"Where did the indigenous people in Block 4 go after they were emptied out?" Li Zheng asked: "Did the terminal pay a heavy price for this?"
Hua Xiangyu: "The residents who previously lived in Block 4 should have been transferred by the terminal to an idle block with a lower number. To dismiss the residents of Block 4, the terminal will indeed have to give some compensation, such as returning part of the money they paid to buy a house there.
Consumption."
I don't know how many people live in one block. It's just severance pay. Li Zheng couldn't imagine what an astronomical figure it was.
It is estimated that the terminal is the only one in the entire outer city that has such a big hand and can do such a thing.
Hua Xiangyu looked at Li Zheng's face and then said, "Are you worried that those residents who were dismissed will come back to cause trouble for you one day?"
Li Zheng nodded: "I do have such concerns."
After all, Terminal's behavior was similar to that of forced demolition. If he had been forcibly dismissed, he would have been somewhat resentful.
"You don't have to worry about this." Hua Xiang said: "Such things happened every once in a while. Generally speaking, it was a certain race that made great contributions to the outer city before they could settle in the top-numbered one.
neighborhood.
Or, some residents in the upper-numbered blocks have contributed too little and will be relegated to the lower areas.
It’s just that since the day when the residents of the outer city were massacred, the overall layout of the outer city has not changed for a long time, and this time Block 4 was demoted, this is the first time that there has been any change.”
"If your contribution is too low, you will be demoted to a lower block?" Li Zheng thought thoughtfully: "Does this mean that the No. 4 block where the Luo people were located that day was dismissed from the terminal because their contribution was not worthy of their current status?"
"That's understandable." Hua Xiangyu nodded and said, "In fact, the situation in Block 4 no longer warrants staying in that position. It's just that the first fifty blocks are now used to the current layout and are too lazy to submit a qualification verification application to the terminal.
That’s all.”
At this point, something suddenly occurred to her and she muttered: "The enthusiasm of the residents in the outer city is getting worse every year. Maybe the terminal has other motives for assigning Block 4 to you this time."
Other intentions?
Li Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "Made, the catfish effect?"
He once heard a story that people in a certain country like to eat sardines, especially live fish.
The price of live fish in the market is much higher than that of dead fish, so fishermen always try their best to bring sardines back to the fishing port alive.
However, despite all the efforts, most of the sardines still died of suffocation in the middle of the journey, but there was a fishing boat that always allowed most of the sardines to return to the fishing port alive.
The captain kept the secret strictly, and it was not until the captain's death that the mystery was revealed.
It turned out that the captain put a catfish whose main food was fish into the fish tank filled with sardines.
After the catfish entered the fish tank, they swam around because of the unfamiliar environment. The sardines were very nervous when they saw the catfish, darted left and right, hid in all directions, and accelerated their swimming. In this way, the problem of hypoxia of the sardines was easily solved, and the sardines would not die.
Already.
As a result, the sardines returned to the fishing port happily.
The Aquablue Star player is the catfish thrown into the school of sardines by the terminal!
