Chapter XVII. Business Alliances
The Business Alliance is the target that Lei Lao Hu is looking for.
Anyone can take the task of a side merchant, and the difficulty of this task is not difficult to say, but it is not easy to say, because as long as you get the approval of the 10 merchant nPc in Bailey City and get their recommendation letters, you can turn into a merchant.
In this way, this task seems simple, but the difficulty of this task is that the merchants are profit-seeking, from the perspective of profit, and the more merchants there are, the less room they have to survive, so generally speaking, these nPcs merchants will not easily send letters of recommendation to players.
But Thunder Tiger knows a trick, and that is Mithril, which is a hard currency in "Heroes", and its value is very considerable.
Therefore, after Lei Laohu took the side job of the merchant at nPc, he left the business alliance and began to visit.
The first thing to do to meet the nPc merchant is to knock on the merchant's door, which is normally easy to knock on, but to enter, you have to go through the gatehouse.
Lei Laohu, who had already planned to break the bank, unexpectedly found that his character seemed to be too good.
Because he knocked on ten doors in a row, the porter, when he saw that it was him, very politely invited him in, and attached refreshments, and invited him to sit down and wait.
And when these merchants met him, they also talked to him very politely, and when he told him the purpose of his trip, these merchants also seemed to play magic, and took out a letter of recommendation casually, and none of the merchants asked for benefits.
This surprised Lei Laohu? He didn't believe that his character could be so good, there must be demons in the world, and Lei Laohu felt that he might have overlooked something.
Until Lei Laohu left the residence of the tenth merchant and was on the way to the Business Alliance, he had been thinking about this problem.
Re-entering the Business Alliance, Lei Lao Tiger was stunned, because at this time, the Business Alliance was not as deserted as when he came, but there were many more nPc merchants.
When these businessmen saw the arrival of the Thunder Tiger, it was like a cat seeing a fish, their eyes lit up, and they rushed to the Thunder Tiger one by one.
"Convince people with virtue, I am a businessman Harbak, this is my letter of recommendation......"
"Go, go, what are you Habak, I'm a big businessman Schneider, and my letter of recommendation for this matter ......"
"I'm the merchant Beleron ......" "I'm the merchant Kaka......"
In an instant, these businessmen all flocked to Lei Laohu, trying their best to sell their letters of recommendation.
Lei Laohu was stunned by this sudden scene, he had never encountered such a situation.
You must know that if other players want to change to a businessman, it is very difficult, not to mention spending countless money and bribes, and it also takes a lot of time to communicate with these merchants (that is, to complete the tasks assigned by these merchants).
But Lei Laohu is different, because he wants to become a businessman, and these businessmen are chasing after him, begging for a letter of recommendation.
Such a scene was very strange to Lei Laohu, but more than that, it was fear, because he did not know why the merchants were doing what they did.
The unknown is always scary.
Trying to calm down, Lei Laohu shouted loudly: "Please be quiet, be quiet!" ”
Perhaps it was Lei Laohu's voice that played a certain role, and these businessmen also quieted down one by one, but they all looked at Lei Laohu with eager eyes, and stretched out their hands one by one, hoping that Lei Laohu would accept their recommendation letters.
Seeing that all the merchants were silent, Lei Laohu looked at a businessman who couldn't remember his name next to him and asked directly, "Can you tell me why you did this?" ”
The merchant who was questioned by Lei Laohu was stunned for a moment, and then said with some resentment: "Hello, sir, I am the merchant Barak, the new city lord raised the commercial tax here because his cat died, I really don't know what his cat has to do with the commercial tax!" ”
As soon as he heard this, Lei Laohu understood that 2 of the news he got from the Brotherhood were related to this, and 1 was what he thought was fake news.
The castle lord's cat died and the merchants were dissatisfied.
This is obviously Bailey City, it seems that he really went lucky, and he directly found the right place, which seems to be a hidden mission.
Thinking that this kind of task has two sides, Lei Laohu frowned again, it was obvious that if he solved this matter, he could get the favor of these merchants, and he would not have much pressure to upgrade the merchant profession in the future, but it was likely to offend the new city lord of Bailey City.
However, this kind of fat meat to the mouth is completely a hidden task sent to the door, so what reason does Lei Lao Hu have not to accept it?
As for the fact that he might offend the city lord because of this, it doesn't matter anymore, he has already offended Sandru anyway, he doesn't think that this city lord is a more powerful existence than Sandru? So what else is he afraid of?
But how can you help these merchants?
So he asked the merchant next to him, who couldn't remember his name, "You recommended me, what good is it for you?" ”
"It seems that Mr. doesn't know much about his own city, Sir is the lord of a city, don't you know that only the city of the blessed people can open the trading authority between the blessed people and our aborigines?"
"What? And such things? Lei Tiger was taken aback.
"Yes, the Lord God has restricted our trading privileges, and in all the main cities, the aboriginal merchants can only trade with the aborigines, and cannot enter the market at all, but if it is in the player's city, such a thing will not happen."
Speaking of which, Lei Laohu is really a fool if he doesn't understand what the other party means.
All merchants who submit letters of recommendation to him can trade through the market in the City of Thunder Tiger Rebirth, and only with players.
Because the system temporarily restricts these nPcs, their trades can only be made between nPcs, not with players.
This restriction is also to give players who enter later more room to develop.
Because nPc merchants have a large number of gold coins and resources in their hands, if there are nPc merchants in the market, players can quickly sell resources in exchange for gold, food and other items.
After all, for today's players, precious resources such as wood, ore, and crystals are useless resources, and only gold and food are useful resources.
In order to exchange for these gold coins and food, players sell a large number of these very precious resources, and even the price is obviously lower than the commodity itself, as nPc, they have a scale in their hearts.
In the eyes of nPc merchants, the value of 1 wood is 5 gold coins, the price of 1 ore is 5 gold coins, the value of 1 rare resource (gem, sulfur, etc.) is 10 gold coins, the price of grain is 10 gold coins, and the price of grain is 10 units of grain and 1 gold coin, and Mithril is priceless.
In this way, the resources in the player's hands will be sold in large quantities and purchased by these merchants, thus accelerating the player's accumulation of funds and food, and greatly strengthening the player's combat power, which is very unfair to later players.
Because there are currently less than 50 million players in Heroes, which is only a small fraction of the world's total population, there are still a large number of players who are unable to enter the game because they have not bought a game helmet.
This is also the reason why the system restricts players from the beginning, and can only exchange 1000 gold coins per day, in order not to make the players who enter early and the players who enter later open too much gap, so the nPc merchant is hidden by the system.
However, the appearance of Thunder Tiger became an exception, if he had not obtained the City of Rebirth, had not chosen the deputy position as a merchant, and if the city lord had not caused the dissatisfaction of these merchants because of the dead cat, this would not have happened.
All kinds of coincidences make these nPcs merchants see hope and hope for trading with players.
So they all urgently handed over their letters of recommendation, hoping that Lei Laohu could change jobs and become businessmen.
But when he thought that he had collected 10 letters of recommendation, he felt a wave of disappointment in his heart, and he knew that he would not be in such a hurry to collect letters of recommendation.
He only needs 10 letters of recommendation, and he has already collected 10 letters of recommendation, so should he return everything he got before? Or reject these merchants?
This is impossible, 10 letters of recommendation are completely too many monks and too little porridge, which can only meet the wishes of a small number of people, but he wants to offend most of the businessmen because of this, which Lei Laohu does not want to see.
Rubbing his forehead with a headache, Lei Laohu didn't have a good way, and suddenly, Lei Laohu thought of a problem that he hadn't thought about all along.
The task requirement only says that you can complete the task by collecting 10 letters of recommendation, but it does not require only 10 letters of recommendation, does this mean that collecting 10 letters of recommendation is just the minimum standard?
Thinking of this, Lei Laohu's eyes lit up, and he thought of a statement in his previous life, a statement about the completion of the task.
This statement is to the effect that the task actually has a completion degree, and this completion degree will be determined by the time and quality of the player's completion, and even whether it is in line with the nPc's personality, thus determining what kind of task reward the player should get.
And this statement is also confirmed from the farming task, which is also a farming task, and some players can get 10 food in 1 hour; Some players only get 9 food, or even less; There are also some players who take on this quest in the hands of an nPC for a long time, and they are also very active when doing the quest, they can get 15 food, or even more.
Thinking of this, Lei Laohu's eyes lit up.
So he cleared his throat and shouted, "Don't worry, don't worry, although I do need 10 letters of recommendation, I didn't say that I only need 10, so everyone give me all the letters, and I'll try it." ”
As Lei Laohu's words fell, the entire business alliance would suddenly be silent, and suddenly it would be audible to drop a pin.
"Is this possible?" Or Barack, he broke the silence.
"How do you know if you don't try?"
"Even if it works, what? If there are too many businessmen, we will have less interest! At this moment, a businessman with a big waist and a round waist stood up and said.
"Yes, everyone goes, there is no benefit at all!"
"I think so too!"
