Tianyun Lao Mao
Chapter 562 Divine-Devil Arena
"Guild Leader, is it really okay to sell so many Intermediate Mana Armor Plates to these guilds?" After the high-level executives of the various guilds left the reception hall in high spirits, Melancholic Smile finally couldn't help but ask.
Basic Strengthened Armor Plates were one thing. After all, the design could be acquired, and any forger could make them. But Intermediate Mana Armor Plates were different. Only Shi Feng could make them, and the production volume was extremely low.
Moreover, the initial sale of Intermediate Mana Armor Plates was to attract business for the Candlelight Trading Firm.
Now that the Candlelight Trading Firm had taken shape, there was no need to use Intermediate Mana Armor Plates to attract people.
Selling so many Intermediate Mana Armor Plates to other guilds, and letting them grow stronger, wasn't that asking for trouble for Zero Wing?
"Since we are a trading firm, why wouldn't we do business?" Shi Feng smiled. "Besides, I've already made a fortune. Can't I let others have a little soup?"
"Made a fortune?" Melancholic Smile looked puzzled.
"If the same number of Intermediate Mana Armor Plates were sold quietly, we would definitely earn more than we do now, but my goal is not just gold coins, but more importantly, magic crystals." Shi Feng explained, "There are very few places where magic crystals can be used now, and they only drop in dungeons. The drop rate in small dungeons is not high, and generally only team dungeons have more. However, the major guilds will generally keep these magic crystals, so the ones with the most magic crystals are undoubtedly these big guilds."
"We have quite a few magic crystals in the Candlelight Trading Firm, and they are still piled up in a warehouse. We can't even use them all." Melancholic Smile was even more puzzled.
"Have you forgotten about the simulation device in the Special Forging Room?" Shi Feng said with a smile.
Melancholic Smile suddenly understood, her eyes lighting up.
The simulation device required magic crystals to operate.
And the amount of magic crystals consumed would change according to the material being simulated. The more precious and rare the material, the more magic crystals were consumed.
Of course.
The simulation device allowed Lifestyle players to quickly become familiar with the item production process, greatly increasing the success rate and production speed. Compared to the magic crystals consumed by wasting materials, it was already very cheap.
Now the Candlelight Trading Firm was developing in several cities, and the Lifestyle players within the Candlelight Trading Firm felt that they were not enough, especially for the production of high-level goods. Advanced Apprentices and Forgers were very scarce. Even though the Candlelight Trading Firm was recruiting people in other cities, it was still a drop in the bucket.
Moreover, in the current market, the demand for high-level goods was even higher.
For example, Level 20 Bronze Equipment and Mysterious-Iron Equipment. Only Forgers had a higher success rate of making these, and ordinary Advanced Apprentices simply couldn't do it. This made the other trading firms in God's Domain desperately try to poach Forgers.
But how easy was it for a player to become a Forger?
Not to mention training a batch, the money spent on it was enough to bankrupt an ordinary small guild.
To quickly develop a batch of Advanced Apprentices and Forgers, using the simulation device in the Special Forging Room was indeed the most efficient and cost-effective way, but letting so many people use it, the number of magic crystals consumed would definitely be very alarming. The magic crystals stored in the Candlelight Trading Firm might not be enough.
"Alright, you go and receive the magic crystals sent by those guilds later. I have already opened the permissions for the Special Forging Room that I specifically reserved before. You can let people with good potential go and practice." As Shi Feng spoke, he opened the forging room permissions in the Candlelight Trading Firm. "By the way, you usually buy more magic crystals, but don't be too conspicuous when buying, so as not to have someone drive up the price."
"Guild Leader, don't worry, I will send someone to quietly buy them in other cities, and I will definitely not let others know." Melancholic Smile nodded and smiled. She had already done this kind of thing more than once.
Then Melancholic Smile left the reception hall.
"Now I can only use this method to fool her."
Shi Feng watched Melancholic Smile leave and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. In fact, he was collecting a large number of magic crystals for a greater purpose.
God and Demon Arena!
That was where the true value of magic crystals lay.
In his previous life, everyone regarded magic crystals as waste products. They were useless to hold, and it was a pity to throw them away. Only the production of a few individual items required magic crystals, but the amount used was extremely small, and it was usually a celebration if they could be sold.
But no one could have imagined that once the God and Demon Arena opened, the value of magic crystals would directly increase by more than five or six times.
The God and Demon Arena itself could test a player's strength and systematically train a player's weaknesses. It could be said to be a good training ground, and fighting inside could also earn rewards, in addition to many other functions.
Because of the appearance of the God and Demon Arena, the players of God's Domain gained a systematic strength promotion ladder, which could quickly train a player into an expert, which was very popular among the players of God's Domain.
However, the currency required in the God and Demon Arena was not gold coins, but magic crystals, so the price of magic crystals soared several times. Even after ten years, magic crystals were still a very strong currency, no less than gold in reality.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be foolish enough to exchange Intermediate Mana Armor Plates for magic crystals.
If possible, Shi Feng really wanted to exchange all the gold coins in his hand for magic crystals. When the God and Demon Arena opened, the 30,000 gold in his hand would immediately become more than 100,000 gold, or even more than 200,000 gold.
But in order not to arouse suspicion from others, he could only slowly buy them secretly.
In the following two days, Shi Feng hardly slept, and kept making Intermediate Mana Armor Plates without going offline. Finally, he paid off his debts, and Shi Feng's level also rose from level 30 to level 32. He leveled up twice in two days, and this was after reaching level 30. If it were someone else, they couldn't level up twice in a week. The leveling speed could be said to be flying.
And Shi Feng's forging proficiency also finally increased to the level of Intermediate Forger.
During this period of time, Zero Wing Guild and Candlelight Trading Firm were developing rapidly, especially Zero Wing Guild, whose number of members exceeded 100,000, which could be regarded as a truly large guild.
The income of Candlelight Trading Firm was also gradually increasing, all because the simulation device had trained several more Forgers in these two days.
As for the other guilds, they had also started the battle for the fifty-person team dungeons.
However, what was surprising was that Yi Xiao Qingcheng had won the first prize and was the first to conquer the first Boss in the Hard Mode dungeon.
Zero Wing, led by Aqua Rose, relied on equipment crushing to be the second to conquer the Boss, which really made Aqua Rose feel depressed for a long time.
Shi Feng was not surprised by this.
Because Yi Xiao Qingcheng had an expert like Canglang Zhantian, as well as other experts. The number of top experts far exceeded that of Zero Wing. In the fifty-person team dungeon, more emphasis was placed on skills, so it was normal to not be as good.
"It's about time to return the quest." Shi Feng looked at the slowly accumulating gold coins in his pocket, and couldn't help but look forward to the quest reward from Star-Moon Trading Firm this time.
As a part of the Epic quest, the difficulty was extremely high.
If he didn't have the Mana Book, a money-making tool, it would be really difficult to complete.
