"Today's daily task is to open a branch, which is a little difficult." Huo'er said.

Shang Yu nodded when he heard this.

The task of opening a branch is indeed not simple, because not only do you have to buy stores in other worlds, but you also have to get the approval of the local people before you can use the "branch system" to open a branch.

Among them, the former is better to say, the latter is more difficult, even in the world of warlord chaos, it is necessary for a force with sufficient local weight to agree before the branch system can be activated. And in some nominally master worlds, such as the Pirate World, Roger opened a store in the sea when he was alive, and with Roger's consent, Roger's permission to open a store anywhere after Roger's death must be agreed by the World Government, otherwise there is no way to connect the main store.

There is a plane of the imperial court, with the permission of the court, and the plane dominated by the gods must also be approved by the gods or their spokesmen.

Shanghai Tang, which was in the Republic of China period at this time, had to be recognized by the government of the Republic of China as an arms dealer of Shangyu before he could open a branch.

It's obviously hard to do this in one day.

However, although the conditions for opening a branch are harsh, there are also many benefits: the branch is also a part of the time and space store, and it will be chained with the main store on Blackstar, sharing the effect of "solid façade" and ensuring the safety of the goods in the store. There is also a portal to the headquarters in the store, so customers with sufficient financial resources can even come to the main store through the branch to buy the goods they need.

This is equivalent to Shang Yu having one more branch at the same time, but also connecting the head office to other time and space.

"In fact, the main significance of the branch is to purchase goods and select high-quality customers to send to the main store." Huo'er said: "You can't always do business in person, and it's impossible to take all the goods out to trade with others, so opening a branch to recruit clerks to do ordinary business, and the owner only receives big customers, which is the main business model of the space-time store." ”

"Okay!" Shang Yu was silent.

Then, he threw the Xibei "Concussive Resonance Gown" he had touched the corpse into the Time and Space Factory, and wanted to copy it, but found a strange phenomenon: the manufacturing cost of the left hand of the pair of fists was only about the same as that of the self-aiming pistol, and the right hand displayed the words "Damaged and cannot be manufactured".

"What's going on?" Shang Yu was stunned.

"It's a bit complicated." Huo'er said: "To put it simply, someone gets a damaged right-handed 'concussion fist', and then through unprofessional repair methods, matches a 'left-handed fist', as a patch to make the damaged fist glove play part of the function, to achieve the effect equivalent to a low-level imitation." But in reality, it's not an imitation, it's a second-hand item that has lost nine out of ten of its power! ”

When Shang Yu heard this, he felt a little confused.

Imitations are still arms after all, if they are second-hand...... It's no wonder that the Spacecraft Factory can't be crafted, which simply challenges its bottom line of not producing scrap!

"It's a good thing, the left-hand fist can be directly disassembled, it's useless, but the right-hand fist glove, if there are enough space-time coins, can be repaired, and it can restore all its power." Huo'er said again.

Hearing this, Shang Yu's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked, "How many space-time coins do you need?" ”

The concussive resonance fist and the big laser knife of the Earth Federation are all powerful weapons that can destroy the city, and if there is one, it will be absolutely invincible in the low-martial world.

"Because the principle of science and technology is different, the cost of the concussion fist is a little lower than that of the big laser knife, only one hundred and eighty space-time coins, one is ninety, and the repair cost is a little lower than that of manufacturing, as long as eighty." "In other words, for eighty Space-Time Coins, you'll have a 'Concussion Fist' in no time. ”

Shang Yu: "......"

Eighty space-time coins, that is, the price of eighty tons of gold, about more than 30 billion federal coins, where to go?

It's not worth that much to sell him!

"Shopkeeper, there is another good news to tell you, just now Huo'er took the opportunity to scan the left hand glove that the old man put next to him when he ate pears, it is a very advanced high-tech 'forbidden energy' glove, which costs two hundred and sixty space-time coins, if it is combined with the right-hand 'concussion' fist, three hundred and fifty space-time coins can be pieced together into a pair of offensive and defensive 'concussion forbidden hand fists', which is very powerful." Huo'er said again.

"Okay!" Shang Yu couldn't be happy at all.

A few hundred space-time coins, that is, hundreds of tons of gold, worth hundreds of billions of federal coins, hehe!

If this had been placed thousands of years ago, when the earthlings had not yet stepped out of the solar system, ordinary small countries would not have been able to take it out!

"The cost is high, we can sell it more expensive, and we won't lose money anyway." Huo'er said.

In this regard, Shang Yu nodded and said, "Also, in other time and space, how much is it up to us to sell?" ”

Monopoly business is the most profitable, if a commodity is unique and irreplaceable, and must be available, then it can be sold for a sky-high price. Just like the first generation of nuclear weapons on the earth thousands of years ago, the cost of that thing was only tens of millions, but for countries without nuclear weapons, it cost hundreds of millions, billions, and some people are willing to buy them.

It's a pity that because of the mutual restrictions of the "five powers", there is no record of nuclear weapons deals in history.

For political purposes, nuclear weapons flowing under the will of the five great powers do not count.

……

In Shanghai Beach World, seeing the long-lost daylight again, Shang Yu felt that his whole person had become much more comfortable.

After learning that he was coming, Xu Wenqiang immediately pulled him and went to the most upscale restaurant in Shanghai to sneak around, Shang Yu did not refuse, eating the original ecological delicacy that was impossible to eat in the thirtieth century, he asked: "I want to open an arms shop in Shanghai Tang, the kind that does legal business in a regular manner, how can it be done?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Ding Li, who was eating and drinking together, immediately showed a confused look.

Born as a pear seller, he doesn't understand these ways at all.

Xu Wenqiang, who was next to him, shook his head and said: "It is absolutely impossible for the official recognition to be completely legal, and we have no precedent in our country." However, if you take a step back and just seek the recognition of several major warlords nearby, it is still very simple, and the above will turn a blind eye. For example, those big chambers of commerce, such as Feng's Commercial Bank, Du's Chamber of Commerce, Jin's Chamber of Commerce, etc., are all engaged in arms business, befriending major warlords, and even the government of the Republic of China has acquiesced in their existence. ”

Shang Yu was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "Just have official acquiescence." ”

He opened a branch here, but he just needs to be recognized by the locals, and he doesn't need to be legal or officially recognized, because acquiescence is also a kind of recognition.

Even, even if you don't admit it on the surface, but only recognize it in your heart, you are eligible.

"But you have to spend money to do it, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble, such as the police station, the fire department, and the patrol teams of various concessions to make trouble, and so on." Xu Wenqiang said.

In this regard, Shang Yu smiled and said: "The people on the official face, it doesn't matter if they can use money to make a point, they should all pay taxes." As for the Concession Patrol Team, it seems that the foreigners can't control us, right? When the time comes, if there is someone who can't open his eyes, he can only regret it, and ask him to go to the sea to contribute to the belly of the fish, especially the foreigners. ”

Hearing this, Xu Wenqiang smiled and said, "I agree with this sentence. ”

In the afternoon of the same day, Shang Yu paid Xu Wenqiang to run errands, and soon counted all the real power figures on the official face. After tasting the sweetness, they not only acquiesced to Shang Yu to open a store, but also personally bought a large number of goods, so that Shang Yu made a lot of money.

When the sun set, not only was the mission successfully completed, but he also condensed a space-time coin and doubled the strength of his body.

"Brother Shang, in the evening, Lu Dashuai will be the east, and invite the two of us to go to Fuguilou for a drink." Xu Wenqiang greeted Shang Yu and said: "That is the closest and most powerful warlord from us, as long as you have a good relationship with him, you will do business here and resell arms in the future, you don't even need to make a point, no one dares to stumble!" ”

Shang Yu didn't refuse, nodded and said, "Okay, wait for me for a while." ”

Although eating with Dashuai is very important and related to his future business, the lottery is obviously more important, and there is a chance for him to be super god today.
