Tourism.

Truth be told, this topic is a bit overscript for Melita - and probably too much for most of the dragons in Talrond.

In the past, the glorious and powerful Tallrond was advanced in everything, and the idle and boring dragons played almost all the entertainment activities, but only the word "tourism" had nothing to do with the dragons' lives: externally, Tallrond was completely closed, and a strict system prohibiting all visitors was implemented under the big shield, and internally, Talllund has been stagnant for millions of years, and together with society, there are a large number of lower-class dragons living every day, plus the abuse of synergists, the extreme development of virtual entertainment, and the replacement of traditional entertainment by extreme competitive sports, the dragons have long lost the concept of tourism, and even more so for "working dragons" like Melita, who were born under the company's orders......

But that didn't stop her from understanding Gawain's concept, she was just skeptical about the feasibility of all this: "Is that okay?" Take people from Loren to Talrond, protect them, and then they'll pay for it? ”

"This is the most basic, but if you really plan to run it as a big project, it is not enough to do these basics," Gawain laughed, he suddenly became very interested in this matter - this is not only an opportunity to win over the dragons and further explore the secrets of Talrond, if it is done properly, it will also be the first time in the history of Loren that it will establish communication with other continents, and the foundation and promotion of many blank realms behind this is unimaginable," You should establish some supporting services in an all-round way, such as setting up travel agents at all levels in the Loren Continent, which you should be familiar with - the Mithril Treasury is more or less basic in this regard; Secondly, you should also set up a suitable 'tour route' in the Loren continent, and try to dig out the profits from it as much as possible, and you can also engage in some value-added business or something......"

Gawain deliberately said something very general, and this really piqued Melita's interest even more, and Miss Blue Dragon immediately leaned closer: "So what about the specifics?" ”

"First of all, there are many kinds of people who are interested in a mysterious land like Tallund, including citizens with a small amount of savings and curiosity, adventurers with a spirit of exploration, scholars who are interested in dragon culture and exotic knowledge, and nobles who are full of novel ideas and have a lot of money. In fact, most of the places to take them are similar, after all, there are only a few safe areas over there, but you must make a good distinction when you promote, not only to blow each gear attractive enough, but also to blow out the feeling of different grades, and then get a few different grades of post inns or something, so that all the consumption seems worth the money......

"And then there's the tour route, after all, most of the area is still wasteland, and you can't really throw guests into it, so plan some areas that are safe enough and look attractive enough, such as the ruins of factories that have been discovered, the ruins of cities, or the ruins of battlefields in the wilderness - you may think that those ruins are not worth visiting, but believe me, everything that happens in that land is worth knowing, and those who are traveling thousands of miles to Talrond... … All they wanted to know was what was behind the ruins.

"Finally, there's the value-added business. Those wealthy people who go to Tallund have traveled thousands of miles to make a trip to see the scenery - after all, this kind of thing can achieve similar results through magical illusions and memory implantation, so if you want to make these people feel that their trip is worth it, you have to think of something irreplaceable. For example, you can do some 'wasteland survival experience', or 'Talrond folklore simulation' or something......"

Gawain was halfway through his words, and Melita suddenly couldn't help but interrupt: "Wasteland survival experience? How does this sound ...... A bit dangerous? ”

"Ahem, it's not what you think," Gawain coughed dryly, the thoughts in his mind quickly formed, "You can't really take people to the wasteland to experience extreme survival, but you can let them participate in some things that are only available in the wasteland area in a safer place." For example, give them some tools, let them experience how to dismantle and recycle dragon buildings, let them experience how to filter clean water from polluted water, let them experience how to operate your production machinery......"

The more Melita listened, the more stunned she became, and finally she couldn't help but interrupt again: "Wait, you're asking them to do the work for us - and then collect the money?" ”

“…… It's an experience," Gawain said with a serious look on his face after a two-second silence, "and you should give them some souvenirs after the experience - like picking some of the finished products they have produced, and packaging them beautifully." If you don't need the extra output, you can also put it in the shop on the tour route and sell it back to other tour groups......"

Melita felt that her mouth was already hard to close, and she couldn't help but ask, "The so-called Talrond folklore simulation ......"

"The glorious sights of the old Tallund are certainly gone, and you won't be able to restore anything like it anytime soon—but those who visit don't know it. You can engage in some special eating, living, socializing, and entertainment scenes, and if you have spare energy, you can build a few more experience areas, and claim to be 'let guests experience the life of a dragon for a day'...... Anyway, you have a history of more than a million years, and I have inquired about it, and you have even reshaped the landform and survival mode of the continent several times in such a long time, so no matter how bizarre the 'experience' project you designed, it must have a corresponding in this more than a million years of history, and it is not a lie to say it......

"You can throw this project into the luxury group, it's okay to charge a little more, most of the people who participate in it should be nobles and wealthy businessmen, for them, 'experiencing the life of a dragon' is more refreshing than your injection of synergists."

Melita's expression was already a little blank: "If you have any other ideas, just say it......"

"There are indeed some more," Gao Wen thought for a moment, nodded and said, "For example, for different groups of people, you can further refine the visit items."

"For example, for those scholars who are interested in the culture of Tallund, you can build some exhibition halls, academic museums and other facilities, and put in them the scrap copper and iron that you have collected from the ruins and can be made public, and give a general introduction to their functions and one or two short stories related to them, and for the sake of this knowledge, those scholars will even be willing to live in them for ten days and half a month;

"For aristocrats who want to experience the thrill and show off but can't really set foot in dangerous places, you can customize some thrilling programs for them, such as flying them over lava lakes, taking them through storm clouds, etc. - we all know that this is a risk-free thing for dragons and their protected passengers, but for those who have not, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You can also offer a photo service at these projects to record the 'heroic gesture' of the client as they take on the project – printed photos are charged per copy, and the crystals are purchased separately and can be sent for a fee......

"Yes, it's a very important fee to pay for it - the dragon himself descended from the sky with someone's 'evidence of adventure' to the human world, showing everyone that a heroic story is true...... Do you know how much the aristocrats are willing to pay for this moment of bragging? Especially the remnants of Cecil and Typhon, who had been deprived of many privileges and could only reminisce about the past in the family castle......

"Of course, this project should not be long-lasting, as the dragons come into contact with the Loren continent more and more frequently, the mystery of the dragons to ordinary people will decrease...... But this will take at least a dozen years or even decades. ”

Melita listened stunned, and as soon as Gawain paused, she couldn't help but ask, "And then?" ”

And then ...... There are also some more special projects that you can consider. I'll give you an example, if Talrond is opened, there will be a lot of adventurers interested in it. Nowadays, most of the land in the Loren continent is owned except for the core wasteland area, and with the rise of trade activities across the continent and the development of various countries, there will be fewer and fewer undiscovered areas in the future, coupled with the formalization of various security companies and regional defense, the living space of traditional adventurers will inevitably be rapidly compressed - in this case, Tallund will become a fertile ground for these adventurers who are facing unemployment.

"You can open up some places for these adventurers, who may be weak for dragons, but they are numerous, they are very aggressive, and since they have been able to survive in the fierce competition, most of them still have some ability. Set a barrier of entry for them and let the adventurers who pass the assessment go to those areas that they can handle, aren't you suffering from the rampant elemental creatures and wandering spirits in some areas, which always involves the energy to rebuild the team? Let the adventurers deal with those things. Believe me, as long as they are properly distributed, don't let them go to the depths of the wasteland, and just do some low-intensity clearing work in the marginal areas, those adventurers from the Loren continent are definitely professionals.

"In this way, it will inevitably free more dragons from trivial patrols around the camp - those weaker elemental creatures should not involve too much energy from the dragons, they will affect your rebuilding progress too much."

Gawain's expression became more and more serious when he said this, he knew that there was not just "economic benefits" behind this matter - a land that had been blocked for millions of years was about to open its doors, no matter what form it had to connect with the Loren continent, the impact behind these connections was destined to be far-reaching, and this matter deserved to be taken seriously.

Melita also listened carefully to Gawain's words, she still had some doubts in her expression at first, but as she thought about it more deeply, her doubts quickly faded, and after realizing the feasibility of this matter, she raised her head: "This is indeed a good idea...... Profitable for all. I don't think even Speaker Andal would mind offering a proper reward to those adventurers......"

"What kind of payment," Gawain immediately waved his hand, "you should charge." ”

Melita: "...... Yes? ”

"The cost of the trip to Talrond, the registration fee, and the fee for the hunting permit for a specific area," Gawain said with a look of course on his face, "and your hunting license must be graded - adventurers who have just passed the examination can only patrol and hunt in the area near the camp, and only be issued a basic hunting license, and then exchange for a more advanced certificate after they have proved their strength and accumulate enough qualifications, so that they can go to deeper places." Anyway, you have to do a good job of supervision and patrol to prevent some overly reckless adventurers from plunging headlong into the danger zone and hanging up - this is also responsible for their lives......"

Melita: "...... So why did those adventurers accept such conditions? ”

"The proceeds of the hunt belong to you," Gawain spread his hands, "You probably don't have any idea of this relatively 'low' thing—do you know how scarce and valuable prey are in the Loren continent with the elemental creatures and mana spirits that are now flooded in Talrond?" ”

Melita: "......"

After this, Gawain told Melita a lot of ideas—most of them that came to him out of the blue. He talked for a long time, until the night outside the window was thick and the town was lit up with large lights, and those superficial thoughts gradually formed a systematic vein.

Melita's expression was a little blank.

When Gao Wen's explanation finally came to an end, the Blue Dragon Miss couldn't help but stare at Gao Wen's eyes, and finally broke the silence for a long time: "...... Dragons are said to be greedy, obsessed with treasure, and good at plundering wealth and accumulating treasures......"

"Don't talk about it, most of this was originally written up when you came to the human world," Gawain immediately waved his hand, "The world doesn't say that. ”

“…… Well, I won't discuss the details," Melita coughed dryly, "I mean - we dragons are really keen to collect treasure and are good at accumulating wealth, but now I suddenly feel like you're more dragons than us......"

Gao Wen thought about it carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became: "Why does this sound like a curse?" ”

"It's a heartfelt compliment," Melita said, with a sincere face, "and I am really surprised by what you think." ”

"And what about your evaluation?" Gawain asked, "What do you think of my plans?" ”

Melita lowered her head seriously and thought about it for a long time before she whispered: "I did write some stories about evil dragons coming to the human world to plunder wealth, and some of my people are also keen to make up 'villains' in this regard, but now I know that robbery is not the fastest way to get money...... Your idea is much more ruthless than grabbing money. ”

Gawain: "...... I still think you're cursing. ”

"It's really a compliment, and it's heartfelt," Melita laughed, with a sudden sense of relaxation and pleasure in that smile, "I have to thank you for these suggestions...... Talrond is highly civilized, but my people have been raised as 'babies' by the Omegas, and after leaving the Omegas, we found ourselves lacking even the basic survival skills and experience of communicating with the outside world, without your advice...... I don't know how we can take the first step towards revitalization. ”
