Chapter 88: Analysis of the Situation (Part 5)

Night had fallen completely, and it was now ten o'clock, and the core of the central area of the northern city of Ebudra was bright, and the newly installed magic street lights were all turned on at this time, dispelling the darkness that had shrouded the place in the night.

Although the number of passers-by is still relatively scarce, it is a drastic change compared to the scene of not seeing a single person in the past. At the heart of the new street lighting area is the Sword of the Holy Fire, and it is a credit for such a big change.

Because it is not someone else who has invested heavily in the construction of infrastructure, it is none other than Renault, the owner of the Sword of the Holy Fire. This expenditure alone is as huge as 300,000 gold coins, and it is not a one-time investment, the magic lamp needs to consume a certain amount of magic crystals, and the number of gold coins consumed by a single street lamp per night is only about 50, but the number of street lamps is more than 200, that is to say, the average daily consumption is at least 10,000 gold coins, which does not include future maintenance and repair funds.

The beneficiaries are, of course, players who live nearby, and the free supply of lighting not only saves a candle purchase fee, but also brings a lot of financial benefits to the surrounding shops. Shops that were closed after sunset can now close after 9 p.m. The increase in pedestrians on the road is undoubtedly worth extending the opening hours of businesses.

The construction of the Sword of the Sacred Fire is said to have just begun, and some well-informed players know from the guys who work at the Sword of the Holy Fire that they plan to build another 500 to 800 magic street lights, which means that the street lights will cover the entire block, which is great news for the residents who were once controlled by the Scar Wolf.

Of course, Renault's investment as a loser is not favored by its peers.

The operation of the Sword of the Holy Flame has just started, and it has invested such a large amount of money, if it is not managed well, it will not be lost. Moreover, the construction of the lighting system should be the responsibility of the neighborhood order, and Renault's move can be said to imply that he is the order-keeper here.

As the Big Three, they turned a blind eye to this, and the other orderly people couldn't eat what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd, so they all waited and saw what happened.

As it approaches midnight, players are already asleep, and the few people who have been immersed in the afterglow of the nightlife are beginning to recover from the excitement and prepare to go home to rest.

The doors and windows of the Sword of the Holy Fire shop were closed, and the guys who had been busy all day had turned off the magic lights in their bedrooms, but the VIP hall on the second floor was still brightly lit, and the backbone of the Sword of the Holy Fire were all gathered together.

"That's how much money we've been making since the first day of opening." Jin Hongming held the account book and made a detailed report on the income and expenditure of the hall on the ground floor.

Renault nodded: "Yes, the first day will cost 310,000 profits, plus 2 million gold coins from VIPs, the total profit is as high as 2.31 million." ”

"Wow! So much money! Jammer jumped up more than a foot in delight and almost hit the ceiling with his head.

The others were full of joy, but Jin Hongming didn't have much joy.

Renault asked, "What's the matter, Hongming?" ”

Jin Hongming said: "VIP sold a total of two bottles of crit secret medicine, four bottles of attribute medicine, and one bottle of virtual elixir, and the total price of two million gold coins should be deducted from the cost price, why are all profits counted, this is not conducive to bookkeeping." ”

Renault: "The materials for these potions are all typed out and not purchased from other places, so they don't have to be included in the cost. ”

Jin Hongming: "But ......"

Renault interrupted him: "No need, it's rare to make a lot of money, just buy some good equipment for everyone." ”

"Boss, are you ready to make a big deal? Is it Yin Sha or Arhat? The recovered sea tiger asked.

"Neither," said Reynolds, "I think it's time to go to the pyramids." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar. Only the spear warrior Ge Lan was silent, as if he had something on his mind.

When the boss's eyes moved to Ge Lan, Ge Lan expressed his doubts: it turned out that he was worried that the Big Three would be unfavorable to the Holy Fire Sword, and suggested that Renault postpone his leveling plan.

Renault's opinion was completely opposite, he said: "After the overlord returned, he set out to gather the elite and prepare to march to the prison of death; Yin Sha and Arhats will not move against us anytime soon, at least until we fail. ”

Looking at the four people who were confused and confused, Renault carefully explained to them: "Our performance today has made them have some scruples, and some of the strength shown is enough to break the balance of power of the Big Three." So they won't offend us first, otherwise they're pushing us to their own opponents. ”

"I see," Ge Lan has a good strategic aptitude among the four, and with a little hint, he understands Reynolds's clever moves, "The boss is really clever." ”

Zhan Mu asked anxiously: "What the hell is going on, you can tell me clearly." ”

Renault winked at Glenn and asked him to explain it to everyone, but also to see how much he had comprehended.

Ge Lan carefully said his guess: "From the very beginning, the leader let Big Brother Hai PK with the crow, showing our strength in disguise, and telling those who think they are leading in the hierarchy not to think that they can take advantage of us in the slightest. The death of a crow is the best example of this. ”

Haihu nodded, but there was still a question, and he asked straightforwardly: "The words are good, other coveted guys may start to weigh their own abilities through this incident, but the strength of the three giants is transcendent, and the power is not something that the five of us can deal with." If any of them were to make trouble, most of us would be deprived of money. Even if we take the attribute potion that increases by level 10, we still can't make up for the huge gap, and the leader may be able to fight with them, but we are afraid that we can't even beat the guards around them. And the most incomprehensible thing is why they are still being sold attribute potions? ”

Ge Lan said: "Brother Tong is right, so after the PK is over, we specially brought the three of them into here, showed our VIP props, and told them in disguise that we have a strategic potion that greatly increases the level, and the purpose is not for us to use, but for them." ”

As soon as these words came out, the three of them were even more confused. Ge Lan continued to explain, "An existence like them, with our current strength, even if we take the attribute potion ourselves, we can't match them. But if you sell any of them, the balance of the three will be upset, and the side with our exclusive potion will gain an overwhelming advantage. The leader really thought deeply, instead of letting us do it with them, it was better to let them be taboo, so as to change from passive to active. Next, they want to rack their brains to win us over. ”

After Ge Lan's detailed explanation, several people finally understood the ingenuity of Renault's strategy, but Haihu still had questions: "But didn't the overlord accept the attribute potion?" What's going on. ”

Ge Lan was silent.
