Chapter 96: The Fate of the Inferior Nations?
Ye Jun, as a Huangpin Intermediate War Beast Master, was unable to complete the refining of the spiritual power source alone.
Ning Xi had only watched the old prince refine it once, and he wasn't even a Huangpin Intermediate War Beast Master, so how could he refine it?
"If the refining is broken, she will naturally compensate."
The old prince pointed at Ning Xi confidently and said, "How can you say that she is the heir of Ning Wangfu, is it possible that she can't even afford to pay for the materials?" ”
"......" Ning Xi twitched the corner of her mouth, she really had no materials to compensate.
The things about war beasts in the palace have long been given away by the moths in exchange for benefits, and all the materials left by the cheap father in the private treasury have long been given to Jing Feng.
Thinking of this, Ning Xi had the urge to beat Jing Feng again.
"Old prince, I don't have the materials, if the refining is broken, can I lose money?"
"It's okay to lose money, 500,000 taels of silver." The old prince nodded.
Ning Xi's eyes widened, "So expensive?" ”
"Nonsense, the materials for spiritual power sources are very rare and expensive in an inferior country like ours, and the red spirit jade alone costs two hundred thousand taels." The old prince gave her a blank look.
Ning Xi pursed his lips, "Then the total materials won't need 500,000 taels." ”
"500,000 taels is the selling price of the red spirit power source outside, and if you break the old man's materials, of course you have to compensate according to the price on the market." The old prince said.
Ning Xi blinked, "It turns out that the price of the spiritual power source is so expensive!" ”
"Nonsense, this is quite low, if it was sold for more than 800,000 taels when the spiritual power source was lacking."
The old prince paused and said: "The success rate of our inferior countries in mastering the method of refining the source of spiritual power is not very high, and the success rate of a Xuanpin War Beast Master like Lao Fu is only seven or eight percent, let alone a yellow-level War Beast Master, so it is normal for the price to be expensive." ”
"What does the old prince mean is that in fact, many of the spiritual power sources used by the Huangpin War Beast Master are not refined by themselves?" Ning Xi asked in surprise.
The old prince nodded: "Yes, most of the spiritual power sources used by the war beast masters are either refined by someone or purchased from the shops under the Great Chamber of Commerce. ”
"Even the spiritual power sources that Yue Lingzhu needs to use to compete with you are definitely provided by the Yue family first, and a war beast family like them will also purchase a batch of spiritual power sources from the major chambers of commerce every year."
"Aren't all the big chambers of commerce the industries of other big countries? Doesn't that mean that the lifeblood of our country's war beast is in the hands of someone else? Ning Xi frowned.
The old prince sighed: "Yes! But this is the fate of the inferior countries. Who let our own war beast master refine the spiritual power source The failure rate is so high, and the materials basically have to be purchased from the major chambers of commerce, which is very expensive, not to mention the queue to book. ”
"Otherwise, the number of war beasts allocated to the army will not be so scarce, and the number of war beast resources transferred from the Ministry of Industry is limited every year, and the generals of the Ministry of War will come to compete every year, and the Ministry of Industry will be the most lively at the end of the year."
"Actually, it's not that the Ministry of Industry can't refine more yellow-grade low-level war beasts, but that there is a lack of spiritual power sources! And the price is so expensive that inferior countries can't afford to spend so much money on large-scale allocation. "When I mentioned this, the old prince felt a sense of distress.
Ning Xi didn't have a taste in his heart, the fate of an inferior country? But she didn't believe in fate!
This is also a way for China and other superior countries to control inferior countries, and thus to prevent the growth of inferior countries.
