Chapter 31 Store Opening Plan
"I want to open a store!" I said, "Open a store that primarily serves players." ”
Yichen showed a clear expression, the bounty hunter looked willing to hear the details, and the commandment and the flaming wind cold looked puzzled.
"You all know that in Magic World, it's not easy for players to make money, right?" I asked.
"No, it's very easy for us to make money, I made a lot of money by robbing the ogre's shop last time, this time you just went out for a walk, and got back more than last time......" said optimistically.
I slapped the table, "Last time it was just good luck, the strength of the ogre wizard was not at all what we could challenge at that time!" If I hadn't been able to see through its invisibility and deliver a lethal attack on it while it was negligent, we'd all have to report to Rose's temple. And this kind of thing is impossible to do again, most of the shops in Demon Blade City are opened by various families of the dark elves or by foreign forces connected with certain families, do you want to hunt down a family? And the remaining small shops in the slums will not have anything valuable, even if they go to rob, the risk and profit difference are too great to do. As for the shop of the ogre wizard who worked part-time as a robber, it was only an exception. ”
I continued: "This time I went out, yes, I brought back a lot of things, but do you know the risks? I raided 9 troll lairs, which means I have to face almost a hundred trolls! Under normal circumstances, I might be able to deal with one troll, but I can't be sure that I will survive the attack of two trolls. This time, we set a trap to eliminate the trolls' weaknesses, but there was a lot of luck involved......"
I remembered that the cave crab, if not an angler who was not good at fighting head-on, but other more dangerous monsters...... "Even on the way back and forth, you may encounter more dangerous things, and if you are not careful, you will die." Moreover, as you know, in the event of death, the equipment items will be left in place with the corpse, and anyone can take them. The punishment of death is not only the loss of experience, but also the loss of everything on the body at that time. Therefore, it is too risky to make money by fighting monsters,"
"Our luck has been good......" said with his mouth cocked and dissatisfied.
"Scorpio is right!" Yichen spoke, "You can't always rely on luck. These two times were our good luck, but what about later? It's like gambling, every time you win, you increase your bets, even if you're lucky enough to keep winning, but as long as you lose once, you'll lose all your previous wins. ”
"Then we don't bet more......" The commandment has not yet been understood.
"The higher the level, the more experience you need to level up, and the better the equipment you have, the more valuable the items are. In particular, our hand-to-hand combat professions such as warriors rely heavily on equipment, because the quality of equipment directly affects our combat effectiveness and survival rate, and as the level increases, the requirements for good equipment are also higher. These are the unavoidable big chips. "The bounty hunter is very clear.
"Oh~~~ It's good that I'm a mage, unlike you warriors who can't do it without equipment." The commandment suddenly came to my senses.
"Then don't divide your equipment......" I teased.
"Don't~~~" commandment to cry bitterly.
"Alright, stop making a fuss. Equipment is like a tiger's teeth and claws to a warrior, and we mages are not so dependent on equipment, but having good equipment is like a tiger's wings. So what your brother says is just as valid as it is for us mages. Yichen admonished and said to me, "Leave him alone and continue to say what you think." ”
"I saw on the official forum that many players are now earning money by part-time jobs, and they can earn up to a few gold coins a day, although they earn little but safely. But why don't they choose the same safe, yet more efficient? For example, it takes 1 day to make a bottle of the cheapest potion worth 50 gold coins, and the materials consumed are 25 gold coins, and the experience points consumed are almost non-countable. If you can sell 50 gold coins, you can earn 25 gold coins in 1 day, which is better than a part-time job. But no one would do that, why? ”
Without waiting for anyone else to answer, I continued: "Because buying and selling in NPC's shop, if you don't take into account the price increase, you will have to pay 100% of the price to buy an item, but you can only sell the same item for 50% of the original price. So, if you spend 1 day making something and sell it to the NPC Shop, you won't even earn 1 copper coin, not including the loss of materials and the XP consumed for manufacturing failures. It's not worth it for your own use, because most of the potions you can make are spell effects that you can use, and if you sell them to other players, players at level 3 or 4 can't afford to use potions worth 50 gold coins. ”
"However, as the player levels up, the purchasing power increases and the demand increases. So there will be more and more transactions between players. And we want to occupy the market first by virtue of our better advantage than others! And our advantage is that we have both people and money. People, that is, your little brothers, can let them learn life skills and provide an initial source of goods; Money, which is the pile of things in front of us, can be sold to raise the first money. "I put the plan out.
"Hey...... It just so happens that the three of us don't belong to a family, and we are not bound by the family to do business. You don't just want to open a pharmacy, though, do you? Yichen asked with a smile.
"I didn't want to limit myself to the potion business. Craft wands, staffs, advanced scrolls, and other magic items that are worth more than potions in the same amount of time. However, potions have two major characteristics, one is that they can be used regardless of class level, rather than class and level restrictions like wands, staffs, and scrolls. Healing potions that the priest can make and invisibility potions that the mage can make will definitely be the most popular in the future! The second is that potions are inexpensive, making them suitable for beginners. As for the cheaper low-level scrolls, they are not as much in demand as potions because of class restrictions. Therefore, the initial product of the business should be based on potions. I elaborated, "In the future, as the strength of the player base increases and the purchasing power increases, we will naturally want to expand the business." ”
"That's right, we'll do it!" The bounty hunter took a stand. The others nodded their heads as well.
Seeing that everyone agreed, I assigned the task: "Sell the things, everyone pool the money and calculate the funds, and rent a fixed house in the market to open a business." In addition to your little brothers, find more Priest players, and the Healing Potion will be very popular. The shares of the store are calculated according to the initial capital and contribution of each person, and the money I owe to Huo Le Han will be deducted from my shares. You will discuss the distribution of shares and profits and the future affairs slowly......"
As I spoke, I opened the door to leave.
"What's the matter, where are you going?" The crowd asked.
"The plan I thought of, the funds were provided, and you should do the rest, work hard......" I said with a smile, "I'll go back to the Martial Arts Tower to see what new tasks there are." ”
“…… You've figured it out in the morning! ”
"Decay!"
"We're going to deduct your shares!"
Ignoring the shouting and threats behind me, I threw out the last words from the door that was about to close: "The name of the store is the player's store......"
