Zhao Dabao's business is actually just relying on the information advantage he has. Finished goods at prices below the market price are used as fist commodities to expand their sales channels and players' recognition while exchanging a large amount of raw materials and some cash.

These raw materials are exchanged for more finished products or sold to NPCs that are much higher than the purchase price on the market, and the players are not aware of them for the time being.

The latter has already been introduced, and it is not a project that can be operated for a long time. If it weren't for the fact that the time is still short, Ma Seventeen received the goods directly from the player, and Zhao Dabao had a good reputation in the No. 6 village, this project would inevitably have an accident. Even so, the project won't last long.

The former is also a trick that players don't know for the time being, and is used by Zhao Dabao as the most important part of his business.

Whether it's weapons, medicines, or anything else that can be directly used by the player, they are all made from a variety of raw materials that have been refined and processed by the hands of their craftsmen.

An ordinary piece of iron ore worth 5 copper coins can be refined into at least a dagger worth 20 copper coins in the hands of a good blacksmith. This in and out, even if the consumption of time, labor, auxiliary materials and other materials is removed, the profit directly taken away by the blacksmith is at least 5 copper coins.

There is a limit to the amount of cash a blacksmith can have. Neither NPCs nor players can spend all their cash on raw materials and goods when running a shop.

The trick that Zhao Dabao mastered was precisely to take advantage of this. There is no cash transaction in the transaction, and the raw materials are directly exchanged for finished goods. While retaining the corresponding profits to the party that provided the finished product, it has also exchanged the value of the finished product at a much lower value than the market price for the finished product he needs.

Not everyone can do that! In order to complete a similar transaction, in addition to a large amount of raw materials, so that the finished product manufacturer is not willing to consume a lot of cash for this, it is also necessary to have enough friendship with the finished product party.

In a short period of time, except for Zhao Dabao, even if other players knew such a trick, they had no way to take advantage of it.

Regardless of whether they will be able to obtain sufficient quantities of raw materials, it seems that for players who want to engage in similar businesses, as long as they are willing to invest in the game and exchange real money into the game, they may be able to do so. The mere fact that an NPC is willing to accept such a deal that actually reduces their benefits is enough to discourage those players.

Zhao Dabao was able to do this, in addition to the fame among the NPCs that he had obtained through the two titles of guò, and it also depended more on the influence of Hu Zhuxiong, Ma Seventeen, and even Wang Dayong and others, who had close relations with him.

Hu Zhuxiong is the head of a village, and Zhao Dabao's relationship with him, even if he himself does not exaggerate it too much, the NPCs of No. 6 Village will not be unclear. What's more, Hu Zhuxiong also deliberately expanded the spread of this message, so that more people knew that there was such a strange person who had a close relationship with him.

Ma Seventeen itself has the advantage of eloquence, and in the process of bargaining, he can obtain more favorable conditions. In addition, his identity as a wandering merchant is easier to win people's trust, and it is easier to get the care given by NPCs on a certain number of dùs.

Although Wang Dayong is only a school guard, he is an old man in the No. 6 village, and his prestige in the village is even far greater than that of Hu Zhuxiong, who holds the position of village head. Zhao Dabao's name came out of his mouth early on, and then he favored Zhao Dabao even more. The NPCs in the village are not blind, and they have extremely high talents, so they will naturally give Zhao Dabao more care on a certain level.

Don't look at Zhao Dabao's business, in just one day, he tripled his original capital. But in fact, the profit he made was only 70 silver coins. Most of the so-called profits are only deposited in the form of goods, and from the perspective of funds, Zhao Dabao's business on the first day actually lost 10 silver coins.

Of course, that's not how the accounts are calculated. The business of finding a newspaper is, anyway, actually profitable. As long as the price of raw materials does not fluctuate too much, he has indeed made a lot of gains.

But what to know is that in such a transaction, the bulk of the profits are actually in the hands of NPCs who provide finished goods, such as blacksmiths and doctors. Especially for doctors, the profits he makes are the real windfall profits.

The player consumes the most of the various potions that are shot by him. The consumption of raw materials for these potions is far less than that of blacksmith refining equipment. The consumption of time and labor is far less expensive than that of a blacksmith. His potion refining, but mass production, is not comparable to a blacksmith who produces it individually.

Whether it's a novice village or a town you'll go to in the future, there's a limit to the number of players you can really accommodate. The market is so big, and there are a few other players running the business as well. Zhao Dabao continues like this, and his daily harvest will not be much higher than now. Especially after entering the town, there will be a player's guild to further occupy the share of the player's chosen trading party.

The reason why Zhao Dabao wants to engage in such a business is, in the final analysis, to get a lot of money? But even if he continued this operation, what he got from this business was far less than he expected.

Zhao Dabao is not very clear about how the player in his memory managed to turn himself into one of the richest people in the game after recruiting the wandering merchant. The other party was able to reveal the method of recruiting the Wandering Merchant, or because this method was no longer available to other players. But how did the other party earn so much capital, and the other party would not be stupid enough to make it public. You know, sometimes business is actually very simple. One law, one hundred laws. If you follow the example, your profits will naturally be shared by other latecomers.

But Zhao Dabao still chose to steal that player's entry level, naturally with his own considerations. With the memory of the future, he can naturally take the lead everywhere. If there were no complete profit plans, Zhao Dabao would not have paid so much for this.

In the exchange with Ma Seventeen last night, he already had several ways to increase profits. If it weren't for the fact that they were still in the novice village, there would be countless ways for Zhao Dabao to make a profit.

First of all, since you want to make the most of the identity of Ma Seventeen Wandering Merchant, in this "Fantasy" that players can't get systematic notarization in the wild, they are engaged in a middleman-like business. Then the biggest profit point of this business, the terminal processing of raw materials, must be grasped in their own hands.

Zhao Dabao originally wanted to wait until he left the novice village to recruit a few skilled doctors, blacksmiths, tailors and the like from the town. After all, the limitations of the Novice Village are there, and the NPCs who are engaged in these professions in the Novice Village are just like that, and they are not enough to meet Zhao Dabao's needs.

Even NPCs have to pay for them, even if they are not as good as the players, but they are a lot of expenses. Raising some followers who will definitely not be able to play a role in the future, no matter how you look at this, this is not a decision that Zhao Dabao is likely to make.

But now the shape has undergone some changes, from the mouth of the doctor in the sixth village, Zhao Dabao learned that he can refine the 'Strong Heart Forging Bone Pill' that can be fixed to increase qi and blood and root bones.

This 'Heart Strengthening Bone Forging Pill' is not an ordinary medicine, it has entered the level of an elixir, and it is a treasure medicine that only a true alchemist can refine. The Medic has some role to play until the player's level reaches level 200, but once the player's average level reaches level 200, the medicine that the Medic can refine can no longer meet the needs of the players who have greatly increased their strength. Only the 'Alchemist' whose status is similar to that of the 'Alchemist' is the one who can continue to allow the player to invest a lot of money after the player's level reaches level 200.

Only by knowing Zhao Dabao, who knew about that time from memory, could he know how amazing the profits that an 'alchemist' could create. Since it is possible to refine higher-grade and higher-quality pills, when refining ordinary medicines, the role played by the 'alchemist' is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary doctors.

The reason why Zhao Dabao left the heart, bones and other materials of the 'quagmire tiger' was to test the level of the suspected 'alchemist' who was hiding in the No. 6 village as a physician. Let's see if he can really refine the 'Heart Forging Bone Pill', and if he is really an 'alchemist' who will create huge profits for him in the future.

If his identity can be confirmed, Zhao Dabao will naturally quickly launch a strategy against him. A noble 'alchemist' appeared in the novice village, to say that he is not a hidden mission prepared by the system for players, whether you believe it or not, Zhao Dabao will not believe it anyway.

Zhao Dabao believed that with his understanding of NPCs, as long as he could connect with the doctor who was still suspected of being an 'alchemist', he would be sure enough to take this 'alchemist' into his pocket. Become a follower like Ma XVII, who works for him.

Even if that doctor was not an 'alchemist', Zhao Dabao still had something to appeal to him. As early as after stepping into the 'Dense Fog Swamp' and obtaining toxin-laden raw materials from the 'rotting walking corpses', Zhao Dabao already had such a plan.

The biggest reason why there is no poison in the novice village, and even if there is, it is only a few hits, and the biggest reason why it is still marked with such an expensive price is precisely because the novice village does not have any toxic raw materials.

Keep in mind that poisons that can work for a long time and deal continuous toxin damage to the target have always been one of the most popular consumables among players. In addition to the red and blue medicines, poisons are the items they need the most. Equipment and everything have to be at the back of the line, not to mention other items.

The 'Dense Mist Swamp' will have the existence of a monster like 'Rotten Walking Corpse', which provides a large amount of toxin raw materials, which Zhao Dabao originally did not expect. After all, the terrain in "Fantasy" is strange, and the types of monsters are countless. Under such circumstances, it was simply impossible for Zhao Dabao to remember what kind of monsters would be in each region. Even the places he had personally visited in his memory were difficult for him to know all of them, let alone this small village of No. 6, which was also very strange to him.

But none of this matters! It doesn't matter if he didn't know beforehand, but now that Zhao Dabao knows that there is a 'rotting walking corpse', it is impossible for him to turn a blind eye and let such a huge gain pass through his hands.

Even if that doctor was not an 'alchemist', Zhao Dabao would establish a cooperative relationship with him and jointly run this poison business that would surely bring huge profits.

The reason why the current players have not set foot in the 'Dense Fog Swamp' is only a small part of the reason why their level and strength are slightly insufficient, and more importantly, they are unable to adapt to the special geographical environment of the 'Dense Fog Swamp'.

This is nothing to Zhao Dabao, doesn't he just have a way to overcome the special environment of the 'Dense Fog Swamp'? This is one of the ways to increase profits.

Again, because of the special situation of the novice village, whether it is 'fluorescent stone' or foot-like fashion, the number is very limited. And their price is very different from the role they can play.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Dabao has an opportunity. Ma Seventeen, who acted separately from him, in addition to using the special channel of the wandering merchant to send the special 'Sumeru stone' to the 'wandering merchant union' and asking the master of the guild to refine a trolley with space storage capacity for him, was to buy these two items.

Not only these two things, but the items that Zhao Dabao explained to Ma Seventeen to buy include small items that are not valued by players, such as the 'Fish Monster Air Maladder', which is only the size of a fist, which can store a large amount of air, and the 'Simple Mermaid Fashion', which looks like a diving suit on the outside but has a fishtail on its legs.

These items are either outfits that aren't accepted by the Tailor's Shop, or they're even more inconspicuous items in the Grocery Store that no one cares about. But the doors either have some special functions in their own right, similar to 'fluorescent' and 'elephant's foot fashion', or they can be combined to play a special role. The 'Fish Monster Air Bladder' and 'Simple Mermaid Fashion' just mentioned are one of them.

You must know that in the territory of the novice village of No. 6 Village, there is a lake where zài is stored. The waters in "Fantasy" also have corresponding monsters to survive in them. It's just that the player doesn't have the ability to survive underwater for the time being, so it's not known to the player.

Underwater monsters under the same conditions are much easier to kill than monsters on land. The reason for this setting is more due to the fact that when the player enters the water, they will be weakened by a certain range of Dao dù in terms of vision, perception, attack speed, and movement speed.

In this way, it doesn't seem to be any different from killing monsters on land in the water. Although the strength of the monsters in the water is not as good as the monsters on land, the strength that players can exert when they enter the water is far from being comparable on land.

But there is one thing, upgrading on land is far less important than upgrading in water. That's how much more you can get by leveling up in the water than you can get from leveling up on land.

The reason is very simple, the things in the water are more difficult to obtain than the things on land, and the supply of the things in the water is even less, so the things in the water are naturally more expensive. Any item, including meat, medicinal herbs, ores and other raw materials, is about twice as expensive as similar items on land in terms of price.

It's like the price of seafood in the coastal zone, and the price of seafood in the inland area of the fish larvae. Rare, hard-to-obtain items are naturally more expensive than items that are easier to obtain in the same condition.

And the combination of 'Fish Monster Air Bladder' and 'Simple Mermaid Costume' just allows players to have the ability to survive underwater. One maximizes the impact of the cigar's underwater environment on the player, and the other gives the player the ability to breathe underwater.

You must know that in the highly realistic game "Fantasy", all kinds of diseases are present, so 'suffocation', a state that can deprive any species of life, is naturally no exception. Especially underwater, it is the environment that is most likely to encounter and induce a state of 'suffocation'.

Due to the small number of these items in the Novice Village and their high application value, the price is very low compared to their value. Naturally, it has become the key to Zhao Dabao's profits.

Not only did he have to buy all the inventory he had, but he even asked Ma Seventeen to completely cut off the possibility of other players, that is, the Inhumans in their eyes, from Village Six. As for how to operate, whether to sign an agreement, or what, Zhao Dabao will not interfere. For Ma Seventeen, who has been engaged in business activities, it is not once or twice to do such a similar thing, he is very experienced and can handle this matter perfectly.

The physician in Village No. 6 is a middle-aged man who looks to be in his early forties and has an elegant temperament. The name is also very close to his temperament, called Xu Shangru.

Seeing this Doctor Xu again, Zhao Dabao did not discuss the poison business with him first, but first took out the heart, bones, and blood of the 'quagmire tiger' from the mustard seed bag and let this Doctor Xu examine it. See if these items meet his conditions for refining the 'Strong Heart Forging Bone Pill'.

The reason why this is the case, Zhao Dabao naturally has his considerations.

Whether or not this Doctor Xu is a real 'alchemist' will have a huge impact on his strategy when facing him in the future. Before the results came out, Zhao Dabao didn't want to leave the other party with the image of a philistine businessman.

Special groups of people like 'alchemists' and 'treasure alchemists', although they are all rich and have huge wealth in their hands. But for the appointment of the franchise, Da Cong still looks down on it from the bottom of his heart.

It's like the ancient scholars looked down on businessmen, which is a huge difference in values, outlook on life, and worldview. It is not possible to change it lightly through the above means or ways.
