Chapter 273: Measures (I)

Liu Lu couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard that there was a backlog of finished potions in the Dream Chasing Residence.

It stands to reason that the total amount of potions consumed by players every day is at least about two hundred to three hundred on average, and even a professional 'gold striker' who collects medicine for profit can hardly exceed twenty-five herbs a day without a tacit team.

This is mainly because no matter what kind of star herb it is, there must be guardian monsters around it, and it will be difficult to successfully complete the collection without killing these guardian monsters.

If you want to bypass or lure away these guardian monsters, it is not only very time-consuming and laborious, but also very easy to trigger the hidden settings of the system, resulting in an organized siege by many nearby monsters, which is extremely risky.

Of course, no matter in that fate game, there are not a few players who 'hit gold' in this kind of class. But compared to the mass players who are many times larger and who are working tirelessly to change their fate, the proportion is too small to mention.

And this kind of gold mingers, their talents and operational skills are generally average or even very poor, and they are not valued by those well-known guilds at all, and they all survive in the form of small scale or solitary behavior, and the possibility of organizing them together on a large scale and uniting to block the Dream Residence is really not high.

But if it is said that these players in Ice City only sell and do not buy when they come to Dream House, this is obviously not realistic. No one will be at a loss with the real money of the Earth Yuan, since it has been difficult to line up to sell the herbs, then it is completely possible to take it along and make a cheaper purchase.

"Lao Zhuo, you call out all the transactions with a transaction amount of more than one life today, let's study it." Several thoughts turned around in his mind like lightning, and Liu Lu suddenly opened his mouth and commanded Zhuo Bufan.

This kind of meticulous management and screening of the store, although Liu Lu can also complete it by himself through the operation interface, but the efficiency is much slower than that of Zhuo Bufan, a professional store manager.

Almost a few seconds after Liu Lu's request was made, Zhuo Bufan was in the "Bang! Syllable! Syllable! After some skillful operation, all the transactions that met his requirements were screened out.

"Look, boss! But what's the use of researching this? Zhuo Bufan himself looked at it carefully, so he presented it to Liu Lu's eyes for the first time, but he couldn't help but ask with some doubts.

For Zhuo Bufan's recent performance, Liu Lu has been very satisfied, he has never expected that his fat shopkeeper can solve all the big and small problems encountered in the most timely and proper manner. Even if he is himself, it is very difficult to accomplish, and it is impossible to force others.

"Lao Zhuo, look at these transaction records, do you find anything special?" Liu Lu took a cursory look at it, and he already knew it in his heart. However, he didn't say it directly, but pointed to the records where several of the questions were particularly prominent, and asked Zhuo Bufan lightly.

Zhuo Bufan followed Liu Lu's movements, looked at it carefully, and soon, his brows furrowed tightly, and he asked with some doubts: "Boss, these huge transactions with a total transaction amount of hundreds of lives have no purchase records, and they are all for sale!?"

And some other large transactions with a transaction amount of tens or nearly 100 lives are also sold more than purchased, accounting for most of them.

It's just a rough estimate, only among these large transactions, the herbs sold to our dream house are almost one-third of the total amount purchased today.

Are these children of destiny all of them non-using potions? So how did they level up, and where did such a huge amount of herbs come from? ”

"Hehe, Lao Zhuo, how can this kind of person not use potions when leveling up, on the contrary, they simply use potions as white water to drink.

It's just that the potions they use are all purchased from the shops in the main city at a 'high price'. Liu Lu smiled mysteriously, and his eyes were slightly deep.

In fact, before seeing this result, Liu Lu basically had a general inference in his heart, and after the verification of these obviously abnormal data, he was naturally much more certain.

These rich herbs were completely dumped by those large and well-known guilds that had settled in Ice City.

Only this kind of giant-like well-known guild can have such a great appeal at a time when it is not yet possible to form a formal guild, gather all the herbs collected by tens of thousands of players in one place, and then dump all of them into Dream Chasing Residence.

They should have been unable to clearly understand the root of chasing dreams, and conservatively adopted this relatively mild cold treatment.

While ensuring their own interests, they will not or more slightly disguised funding potential competitors. Even if they weren't sure if the herbs they had purchased from Dream House were really used to refine the Crafted Potion.

Although Liu Lu didn't tell it directly, he expected that his shrewd shopkeeper Zhuo Bufan should have understood it.

"They really have a lot of fate coins and have nowhere to spend them, since they have already sold herbs to us, how much difference can they make if they purchase the potions they need by the way!" Zhuo Bufan shook his head and sighed.

"Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes! What's more, our dream house business is in full swing, and it is inevitable to attract the attention and even run of people with hearts.

If it weren't for the fact that they hadn't figured out our roots for the time being, they couldn't be sure whether we were really making a profit, and I'm afraid that the means wouldn't be so gentle.

Once they know that our daily profits are so exaggerated, the consequences will be beyond imagination. What's more, it is very likely that hundreds of thousands of children of destiny will be mobilized to surround us and pursue our dreams, and then force us to be unable to operate normally. Liu Lu's expression was still tepid and lightly analyzed.

"Hey! It seems that there is a cruel and realistic competition between you, the boss, the children of fate, just like us aborigines.

However, if the castle lord can give you this shop, he must have a lot to do with you, if such a bad situation really occurs, boss, do you think the castle lord will help us? Zhuo Bufan's eyes were full of melancholy, and his words asked with expectation.

Concern is chaos, Liu Lu understands Zhuo Bufan's mood. smiled faintly and comforted: "It's better to ask for others than for yourself!" Rest assured, as long as we stabilize our position, no matter how bad the situation is, there is a way to solve it.

I told you before that those swan girls were not allowed to communicate with each other privately with these three alchemist apprentices in the workshop, haven't you forgotten? ”

"No, absolutely not! Although there have been a few unavoidable brief contacts between them, there is no opportunity for private communication, which Lao Zhuo can guarantee. Zhuo Bufan lowered his voice and replied with certainty.

"Don't be careless, you know, nothing is absolute! In a few moments, you and the three alchemist apprentices will each sign a new employment agreement with a minimum of the Immortal Venerable level.

For specific terms, you can refer to the new one signed between us. The most important thing is to pay attention to confidentiality, which is a top priority. ”

It's not that Liu Lu is unwilling to directly sign a new employment agreement with the three alchemist apprentices who are close to him, but these NPC aborigines in the fate game, except for their strong combat power and some relatively special ones, most of them can only have some very simple communication, and they are seriously lacking in reflexes and comprehension. After a few conversations with them, he didn't want to bother with it again.

"Okay, boss! Hehe, but I believe it won't be long before the communication between you and the three of them will be smoother, boss.

According to the current daily refining volume of our shop, I am afraid that in the next three or five days, they should be able to advance to junior alchemists one after another. Then you will be blessed by the great Lord of Destiny.

After the blessing, not only will there be a slight increase in the success rate and the number of finished products when refining their medicines, but their wisdom will also be significantly improved.

There may still be some obstacles when communicating with a child of destiny like you, but it will definitely be much better than it is now. Zhuo Bufan replied softly and added.

"Oh!? Do you know when they're progressing? After advancing to a junior alchemist, do you know when they will be able to advance again? What are the specific improvements after advancement? What is the specific amplitude? Although Liu Lu knew that these NPC aborigines would advance after meeting certain conditions, the information was too specific and his knowledge was limited, so he was very interested and kept asking.

"Yes, as the shopkeeper of the Dream Chasing Residence, I have a very good understanding of the basic situation of the three alchemist apprentices employed by our shop.

To advance from an apprentice alchemist to a junior alchemist, the conditions are the easiest. All you need to do is refine more than 10 million rudimentary-level tabula-level potions by hand, and have a junior alchemist like you as a 'mentor'.

However, every time you advance after that, the conditions will be much harsher. The increase in the amount of finished potions that need to be refined by hand is still secondary, and there are also some rigid requirements for the number of high-star potions.

And after advancing to a certain height, they will continue to advance, and they will also have some special needs for the scale of the store they work for.

Of course, the alchemist level of the mentor they possess must be equal to or higher than the alchemist level that they will advance to become.

After each advancement, the vast majority of the parts that have been improved after receiving the blessing of the Great Destiny Lord are in the most important aspect of alchemy.

After advancing to a junior alchemist, the increase in blessings obtained is the smallest. It only increases the success rate of alchemy by one percent, and the number of finished products by one percent.

And if you want to advance to an intermediate alchemist, with the current scale of our Dream Residence, I'm afraid it will take at least a month or more. Zhuo Bufan explained in detail.
