Chapter 180: The Bazaar Reopens
After bringing back a large number of demon beast meat slices from the Hellfire Palace, Meng Chen began to modify the cultivation methods of civilians.
Now, the new civilians summoned by the City of Hope every day are not immediately sent to the academy for training, but first enter the library to study on their own for twelve days.
For the first twelve days, newly summoned civilians will continuously consume slices of monster meat, and then assign classes based on the civilian's strengths.
Although the screening period is very short and not completely accurate, it can greatly avoid the waste of talent.
As for the tedious selection of specialties, the scholars in the library are responsible for it.
In this way, the time soon came to the first day of the seventh month, which was also the day of the reopening of the Dilong Valley Market.
Meng Chen originally thought that if the market was closed for a month, the popularity of the Dilong Valley Market would definitely drop a lot.
Unexpectedly, after the reopening of the Dilong Valley Market today, the popularity has risen a lot instead of falling.
"It should be the credit of those warriors, right?" Meng Chen said secretly in his heart.
Taking advantage of the reopening of the market, Meng Chen deliberately opened five official shops, four of which sold weapons and armor, alchemical potions, wine, food, and clothing.
Due to the lack of professional sales staff in the four official shops, Meng Chen could only temporarily let scholars who were proficient in the southern Xinjiang language take over.
Looking at several scholars who were so busy, Meng Chen smiled secretly: "It's really embarrassing for these scholars to do business!" The library has already appeared in the southern Xinjiang language skills book, and it seems that a group of professional salespeople must be trained as soon as possible! ”
The last official shop is the Trading Center, which is mainly responsible for the purchase of goods needed by the City of Hope.
After each caravan arrives at the Diryugu Bazaar, it first needs to go to the trading center to sell its goods, and then Oyuan can buy the specialties of the City of Hope.
Although the Trading Center supports the exchange of Gold Knife Coins and Austrian Dollars, each caravan can only exchange a maximum of 100 Gold Knife Coins.
If you want to buy the specialties of the City of Hope in large quantities, you can only find a way to collect the goods that the City of Hope needs.
At this time, the goods purchased by the City of Hope are no longer limited to ores, stones and timber, but also include all kinds of books, natural treasures, plant seeds and so on.
When Meng Chen walked into the trading center, he found that many merchants were asking Ellie about the specific matters of exchanging books for Olympic yuan.
For profit-seeking businessmen, the new book exchange project is definitely a low-cost and high-return business.
After all, there is no restriction on the types of books in the trading center, whether it is martial arts cheats, medical classics, or anecdotes, character travelogues, as long as the books that are not included in the library can be exchanged for Olympic yuan after being appraised by scholars.
According to the exchange price set by Meng Chen, gray quality books can be exchanged for 10 Austrian dollars, white quality books can be exchanged for 50 Austrian dollars, green quality books can be exchanged for 300 Austrian dollars, and blue quality books can be exchanged for 2,000 Austrian dollars.
In addition, the amount of Ao Yuan exchanged for martial arts cheats is three times that of books of the same quality.
The book exchange program has only been open for three hours, and the trading center has collected nearly 100 books of various types.
It's a pity that most of these books are only gray quality, and there are less than ten white quality books, and none of them are martial arts cheats.
However, even if it is just an ordinary book, it can be of great benefit to the City of Hope.
Library scholars can quickly improve their intellectual attributes by analyzing these books.
After watching for a while, Meng Chen did not disturb Ellie, but quietly left the trading center and wandered around the mountain pass.
In addition to the five official shops in the pass, many caravans that have been exchanged for full Olympic dollars are also eligible to use the shops for free.
Looking at the increasingly lively Dilong Valley Bazaar, Meng Chen secretly said in his heart: "Maybe you can consider opening the Dilong Valley Pass for a long time!" ”
Just as Meng Chen lowered his head and pondered, a familiar voice sounded in his ears, "City Lord Meng, do you still remember Lin?" ”
Meng Chen looked up and smiled: "It turned out to be Senior Lin!" ”
Lin Rufeng complained: "The identity of City Lord Meng ...... It becomes diligent! ”
Regarding Lin Rufeng's complaints, Meng Chen could only laugh dryly and changed the topic: "I don't know what Senior Lin is talking about this time?" ”
Seeing Meng Chen's mention of the purpose of this trip, Lin Rufeng's resentment deepened, "City Lord Meng, the exchange quota of a hundred gold sword coins is too small!" Lin needs to buy a large number of goods, I don't know if the exchange limit can be increased? ”
"Oh? How many gold knife coins does Senior Lin need? Meng Chen asked curiously.
Lin Rufeng stretched out a finger and shook it, and said, "Ten thousand!"
Meng Chen looked stunned and said in surprise: "This is not a small number!" How does Senior Lin plan to spend it? ”
Lin Rufeng glanced left and right, then pulled Meng Chen to a secluded corner, and said softly: "Taoyuan Village is ready to recapture the Barren Valley, so please ask the City Lord Meng to be accommodating." ”
Meng Chen showed a sudden look at this time.
Since the three males of the Niu family died one after another, the raised cattle were also poisoned, and the status of the cattle village plummeted.
Today's Manniu Village has not only been disqualified as a vassal by the Blood Refining Sect, but even the original backer Elder Yelan no longer accepts the contribution of Manniu Village.
On the other hand, Lin Qing'er worships Xiao Yizhe as his teacher, and the remnants of Taoyuan Village can be regarded as having found a big backer, so it is no wonder that they have the idea of retaking the Barren Valley.
After pondering for a moment, Meng Chen nodded and smiled: "Senior Lin is kind to the City of Hope, how can Meng be an ungrateful person?" ”
Lin Rufeng said happily: "Thank you City Lord Meng!"
With Meng Chen's help, Lin Rufeng not only exchanged for 10,000 Austrian yuan, but also enjoyed a 20% discount on shopping, and finally received a gift of ten three-bow bed crossbows.
Seeing Lin Rufeng lead dozens of ox carts away, Meng Chen smiled evilly: "Although I don't care about dealing with Manniu Village anymore, but if you make a little trouble for them, it shouldn't be careful, right?" Hey, hey, hey!"
As the evening approached, the caravans in the pass left one after another.
When Meng Chen came to the trading center, Ellie was counting today's harvest.
Half an hour later, Ellie said to Meng Chen with a happy face: "Lord Lord! Today's trading in the City of Hope has harvested more than 15,000 gold knife coins, more than 10,000 stone gray quality metal ore, more than 20,000 stone white quality metal ore, and more than 300 stone green quality metal ore. In addition, there are more than 100 books of various kinds, and a number of special wood and plant seeds. ”
Meng Chen asked, "How much does the City of Hope pay?" ”
Ellie looked at the accounts and replied, "More than 1,000 sets of Tier 1 soldier equipment, more than 500 sets of Tier 2 soldier equipment, more than 100 sets of Tier 3 soldier equipment, more than 50 pieces of extraordinary equipment, and a small amount of wine, cloth, and potions. ”
Estimating the cost in his heart, Meng Chen laughed and said, "The profit is more than 700%! Ellie, you are really amazing!"
Ellie pursed her lips and smiled, "My lord, since it's so good...... Is there a reward? ”
Meng Chen looked stunned for a moment, and then said generously: "Of course! What do you want? ”
Ellie's face turned slightly red, and she was about to say her request when a loud noise was heard in the distance.
