866 Ivas City will be very profitable in the future
Both sides held their own opinions and argued. Yun Xiaohan was noncommittal. In his opinion, it was still controversial whether it was cost-effective to exchange rare skills for network expansion, but it would definitely be a loss to exchange legendary skills for network expansion, so it depends on the players.
Can I learn legendary skills? If I can learn them, I will not consider changing my connections. It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others.
What's more important is that legendary skills are just a stepping stone. Although Yun Xiaohan has never contributed legendary skills, he has gotten to know many heroic NPCs, and even has a good relationship with a few of them.
For example, Napoleon was arrested once by Yun Xiaohan, and Yun Xiaohan later recommended him to Liya. How could Napoleon pretend not to know Yun Xiaohan when he met him? Obviously impossible!
In fact, after Liya appointed Napoleon as the chief officer of the thousand-man army, although it was Liya who re-employed Napoleon, Yun Xiaohan also recommended him, so while Napoleon thanked Liya, he also expressed his kindness to Yun Xiaohan.
The sensitivity has improved a bit, and it is only a short distance away from "familiarity". I estimate that it will reach "familiarity" after one more improvement.
This currently still "friendly" favorability does not seem to be very high, but Napoleon may be one of the best NPCs in "The Choice". It is even possible to remove "one" and his favorability will increase.
It's too difficult.
Yun Xiaohan estimated that if other players contributed a legendary skill to Napoleon, it would only change Napoleon's favorability from neutral to first acquaintance, which was still one level shy of friendliness. It was just a favor.
, and for a character with a super strong personality like Napoleon, the possibility of adopting other people's advice is estimated to be very low. This favor is probably not very useful, so it may not be better than Yun Xiaohan's current situation. This shows that forging iron requires one's own hard work.
ah.
Although others did not compete with Yun Xiaohan for [Elf Dragon Skin], he could not offer a very low price, which would be too unreasonable, so Yun Xiaohan directly quoted a price of 135 gold, so that everyone in the team
You can get 7.5 gold. After deducting Yun Xiaohan's own 7.5 gold, the actual price is 127.5 gold. It is more reliable to buy [Elf Dragon Skin] at this price, although Yun Xiaohan still has a slight advantage.
But the teammates can hardly be said to have suffered a loss.
For Yun Xiaohan, even if he spends double or even triple the money for this skill, it is worth it. Yun Xiaohan's current magic resistance is still far behind compared to physical defense, but when he learns it,
With [Elf Dragon Skin] and [Space Barrier], his performance in terms of magic resistance will be no worse than physical defense.
After finishing the dungeon, Yun Xiaohan continued to do the tasks. All the tasks below level 48 in the Gloya City area had been completed, so Yun Xiaohan went back and continued to do the tasks in Snowman City.
However, there are not many tasks left in Xueman City. Even if he can only do about 2 hours of tasks during the March 8th period every day, he can almost complete it in another 2 to 3 days. By then, either
Continue to do quests in other towns in the Xueman City area, or go to Ivas City to do quests. Yun Xiaohan still prefers the latter. On the one hand, Ivas City is his own city, and on the other hand, there is a mercenary guild there.
Ivas City is different from the cities on the three islands of Sardinia. Because it was originally an empire-controlled area, it is open to all empire players. Other empire players can also register as mercenaries at the Mercenary Guild in Ivas City, but
Players in the Viscounty of Signia have two privileges.
The first privilege is the priority to publish and receive tasks. The tasks that can be published in the mercenary guild are limited, and the task list is refreshed every hour. During this hour, everyone can apply, but
There are only a few that can be successfully released. Missions released by players in the Viscounty of Corsica will be released first. The situation is similar for receiving missions. If a mission limits the number of people who can accept it, then if many people apply at the same time, the mission will be released first.
Players from the Viscounty of Sijia will receive it first.
The second privilege is that the handling fee is halved. Other players need to pay a small amount of money to the guild when posting and accepting tasks. As a reward for the services provided by the mercenary guild, players in the Viscounty of Corsica only need to pay half.
Because of the existence of these two privileges, Corsica Viscounty players still have a great advantage, especially since the current mercenary guild in Ivas City is only at the first level, and there are not many tasks that can be issued. Non-Corsica Viscounty players
Players cannot compete with players from the Viscounty of Corsica when issuing tasks, and they will always see the prompt "Task assignment failed" when the task list is refreshed.
Fortunately, Ivas City is currently the most important leveling city for players above level 40 in Snowrun City. There are many players coming and going from Ivas City, and tasks are released and completed very quickly. Only non-Corsican Viscounty players can occasionally successfully release a task.
.
At present, the main reason is that the level of the mercenary guild is too low, the level of tasks that can be released and the tasks that can be received are too low, and the number is too small, resulting in low fee income, which has greatly affected the income of the mercenary guild.
Speaking of which, many Snowrun City players were very surprised that Ivas City suddenly became Yun Xiaohan's territory. Although Ivas City's current income is very low, that is mainly because of Ivas City's profitable economic facilities or
There are too few service facilities.
In terms of economic facilities, there is no pharmacy, food store, forge shop, leather workshop, tailor shop and other stores. It relies on two hotels and taverns to support the store. However, the high food prices have led to the high prices of food consumables. This
The price of food consumables here is more than half as high as that in Snowman City. Players would be stupid to buy it here.
In terms of service facilities, the blacksmith shop is actually very profitable. Due to the cheap ore, the repair cost here in Ivas City is about 20% lower than the market price. And although the repair cost is not particularly high, it cannot support the large volume. Players need at least
You have to repair it once, and if you die twice more, you have to repair it again. In this way, you can make a lot of money every day. However, the blacksmith shop in Ivas City is only level 3 at present, and it can only repair equipment below level 40, but Ivas City
There are strange spots around the city that are above level 40. There are no players below level 40 who will come to Ivas City. There is no way around it. You can't make this money even if you want to.
Therefore, the vast majority of players still habitually set their hearthstone in Snowrun City and purchase consumables and repair equipment in Snowrun City. This is the result of facilities that cannot keep up with the development speed of players.
In terms of accommodation, the hotel beds in the Viscounty of Corsica are just enough for the players themselves, so Yun Xiaohan will naturally not open them to outsiders.
Due to the relationship between mithril and mica, the refining station is still closed to the public, neither to foreign players nor foreign NPCs. This is directly prohibited by Liya and Balgruuf, but other ores produced in the local mines can still be refined here.
, this part of the tax will also be paid to Yun Xiaohan normally.
The Mining Guild is also not making much money at the moment. The main players in Ivas City are leveling combat players. Due to the inconvenience of land routes, there are not many merchant players from non-Viscounty of Corsica, but those who buy and sell ore
They are mainly business players, which is very embarrassing.
The most important thing is that in order to cover up the silver mine, the mining guild here was not open to the outside world. Therefore, there are very few merchants and players in Xueman City who know that the mining guild here can use it, which further affects the mining guild.
income.
But just like the blacksmith shop and the employment guild, the benefits of the mining guild can also be expected. Yun Xiaohan believes that with the increase in the number of players traveling to and from Ivas City, Ivas City has great potential for economic benefits.
And this was the biggest reason why he was so eager to capture Ivas City in the first place.
