Chapter 1058: Lord wealthy businessman sinks 30,000 yuan
For ordinary lords, it is difficult to discover the true value hidden in these [special] and [unknown] items with only pitifully simple system information!
Most of these items cannot be used directly and basically exist as clues and wedges.
It is not easy to dig deep into the hidden elements.
In particular, the clues associated with many [Special] and [Unknown] level items are in distant places.
The vastness of the mainland increases the difficulty of investigating clues.
So even though everyone knows that these items have other uses, it is not easy to actually convert them into value.
Only a very few lucky lords who happen to encounter [Special] and [Unknown] items related to their territory can quickly find the next clue.
However, even if they achieve this step, it does not mean that they will be able to obtain the harvest behind the items.
You must know that many events and relics related to [Special] and [Unknown] items are quite difficult to develop.
All in all, for ordinary lords to obtain benefits from such items, it can only be described as extremely difficult.
Zong Shen, however, has no such concerns.
He can completely use the convenience provided by the strategy module to quickly learn all the information he wants to know.
All clues that exist in the Endless Continent and are mastered by the lord system can be mastered simultaneously by the strategy module.
The existence of the information link allows Zong Shen to save the tedious process of digging for clues and investigating the origin of items.
It also has strong strength to ensure that the exploration operation will not fail.
So he is quite looking forward to this kind of items.
It is no exaggeration to say that behind every [Special] and [Unknown] level item, there is basically a brand new "side mission" hidden.
On the surface, these branches are not directly related to the main line of territorial development and hegemony.
But in fact, each branch line represents a thread, and they can further complete Zong Shen's tracing of the history and origins of the endless continent.
This is also the key to whether Zong Shen can break away from the shackles of epochal reincarnation and achieve true transcendence!
In the past period of time, he has not given up his plan to find leaks in the [market].
Mariel was specially asked to assign an internal affairs hero to be responsible for searching for those [special] and [unknown] items in the [market] through keyword searches, quick browsing, and filtering at fixed points every day.
But unfortunately, the gains in this area are close to zero.
During the three days of the novice period, there were more opportunities to pick up missing items, but [market] construction was not yet fully popular at that time, and the total number of listings was far less than it is now.
After everyone had the [Market] building and the sales market became completely popular, and because the surviving lords were screened and eliminated through challenges, the remaining lords became more and more savvy.
They will not directly put up for sale or hastily dispose of those flashy items, or items whose function cannot be discerned in a short period of time, but will choose to keep them.
Moreover, the "online" market model has also spawned many [market] scammers who are professional businessmen.
The profit-making method of these scammers is still to take advantage of the information gap, look for opportunities to pick up on the huge volume of pending sales orders and transactions in the [market] at all times, buy low and sell high, and earn a certain price difference.
Not to mention, this method of operation has a certain risk of loss and requires some luck, hand speed and vision, but generally speaking, you can still make money.
Anyone who has mastered some skills can earn enough resources for their development through the [market].
Compared to combat and exploration with the risk of death, and gathering methods that rely on large amounts of labor.
This kind of "professional businessman" is obviously much more comfortable.
There are even a small group of lords who have completed the primitive accumulation of capital through commercial trading activities in the online market.
At present, "wealthy lords" with total resources exceeding five million have appeared.
Among them was a Chinese lord named "Shen Sanwan 1984611", who even played the futures mode.
By hoarding specific basic resources, you can earn the price difference by taking advantage of the fluctuation in the value of the resource exchange ratio in the [market].
And this guy really has some skills. The legion he established is called [The Richest Man in the World], and he has gathered hundreds of business lords, and they take turns to advertise with the same slogan on the [World Channel] every day.
At the same time, he also used the bidding display mechanism of the [market] to sell hundreds of common items at sky-high prices, occupying the forefront of the price selection of various items. Each item was marked with Shen Sanwan and the name of the legion.
This advertising model is not a secret. Very early on, Zong Shen saw a man who got a fourth-level shield and listed the selling price of 99999999 pieces of wood. He ranked the price of defensive equipment from high to low. After screening, it directly ranked first in the category!
Later, many lords used this method to advertise or make flirtatious remarks.
But it couldn't withstand Shen Sanwan's "traffic" offensive.
That is, through a large number of legion members and dozens of [market] quotas, information coverage is achieved.
You must know that the sales space used for advertising cannot be used for normal transactions.
How could an ordinary lord have such skill?
Even though the [Market] building can be stacked infinitely, other lords can't get much of it.
After all, the way to obtain the [Market] blueprints is random, and most people open them through treasure chests.
Although in theory a single territory can house countless independent [market] buildings, in fact, as long as the lord obtains a [market] building, the explosion rate obtained from unboxing in the future will be greatly reduced.
Even if you get the blueprint again, it will basically be the [Market] advanced blueprint of the subsequent level.
Unless you can get a large number of redundant [market] buildings like Zong Shen by inheriting a large amount of unclaimed territory heritage.
Otherwise, the only way is to form a legion-level force like Shen Sanwan and exert the power of the group.
It is difficult for a single lord to achieve advertising coverage in this mode.
But Zong Shen had no need to stop them.
Because the territory is currently mainly trading mineral resources.
Since it is mined and produced by itself, the daily sales volume is quite stable.
The total amount of circulation converted into basic resources can reach millions or even tens of millions.
This scale of resource trading volume is no longer something Shen Sanwan can leverage.
What's more, the output of Zong Shen's territory is like this every day.
Not to mention, the territory's daily consumption of resources is on the order of 10 million to 15 million.
This does not include the continued output of the Azshara Mine and the subsequent output that still has room for improvement.
Just the resources currently accumulated by Zong Shen, when converted into basic resources (including various precious high-end materials, magic gems, and high-energy minerals), are at least billions or even tens of billions in total.
When choosing a strategy for large-scale infrastructure development, he directly chose to move towards the national city and giant city levels!
When the territories built by other lords were still at the village level of a thousand people, Zong Shen's goal was to develop large-scale state cities and prototypes of giant cities that could accommodate at least one million people.
The construction volume is also not of the same level.
This gap resulted in Zong Shen's listed territory directly surpassing the "World's Richest" Legion, which means Zong Shen didn't use any advertising slogans.
But his reputation, coupled with the three words "Guide" added before each item for sale, make his reputation in the "Market" unshakable.
The two are actually not on the same level at all.
But in Zong Shen's view, as an ordinary lord, being able to use business methods to get to this point is already considered a great achievement.
Although the million-level resource wealth that Shen Sanwan is proud of is not worth mentioning to Zong.
But when compared horizontally with the lords of the same period, at least more than 95% of them have been killed in seconds.
Moreover, this model still has development potential. In the future, he might actually be able to become a big lord through trade.
Of course, it is incomparable to someone like Zong who has the information hook turned on.
Shen Sanwan's advertisement allows most lords to basically see relevant information as long as they enter the [market] and browse for a while.
After seeing it more times, I became tired of it, but I remembered it in my heart.
Under such circumstances, the [richest man in the world] legion and lord [Shen Sanwan 1984611] actually accumulated a lot of fame.
Although neither [The Richest Man in the World] nor [Shen Sanwan] appeared on the [Ranking List], nor did they receive the honor of being announced by the Golden Banner, they have successfully left an impression on the hearts of most lords.
That is to say, Zong Shen, the hands-off shopkeeper, doesn't know much about it because he hasn't visited the [market] in person for a long time.
Even the information related to Shen Sanwan was reported to him by Jiang Yi before.
Guys like this can be said to be competitors in Zong Shen's plan.
In fact, he also had the idea of developing commercial trade before this, but later he lowered the priority of such plans.
The reason is very simple. Rather than delving into [the market], it is better to explore harder.
After all, hunting for food in the Endless Continent is much more satisfying than relying on the [Market] to earn the three melons and two dates that an ordinary lord would get.
Just exploring a large ruins would probably keep Shen Sanwan busy for a while.
So Zong Shen didn't want to be distracted by this.
Of course, he has never underestimated the potential of [the market].
As part of the lord's privileges, it is also an "online market" that can instantly complete the transaction and circulation of materials regardless of geography. Its potential is beyond doubt.
As the strength of the lords increases, the potential of the [market] will also increase simultaneously.
But it is not easy to occupy a monopoly position.
It requires a lot of effort. By the time a big capitalist who can monopolize the market emerges, someone from his clan may have already dominated the mainland.
However, after thinking about the leak-picking plan, Zong Shen had new ideas about it.
At present, there are very few lords who can occupy mining areas and carry out large-scale development (note, this is not impossible, because the Endless Continent is too big, and the mine is not just around the protagonist).
Therefore, mining is not the only business. Its advantages lie in its popularity, large number of sales places in the [market], large total resources, and stable production.
In addition, the reputation gained from previous banner announcements and ranking at the top of the rankings.
These are the elements that Shen Sanwan spent a lot of time and effort, and only with the manpower of a legion could he cobble together the low-end version.
It would be a pity not to take advantage of this wave at all.
Not counting the second batch of lords, it will be calculated based on the current surviving lords.
Even if he only earns an average of one basic resource from each lord, then this business also represents the potential of billions of total resources.
"It seems that we still need to pay more attention to it."
"Leave this to Hao Yin."
"Let him arrange a few people to carry out distribution and purchasing plans to expand his influence."
"It just makes up for the regret that he can't organize the caravan himself."
Zong Shen rubbed the stubble on his chin and decided to give this task to Hao Yin.
He had promised Hao Yin to take charge of the caravan.
Unexpectedly, the situation changed later, and Hao Yin's responsibilities also changed accordingly.
Seeing that he can't be a caravan steward, let him be responsible for some commercial and trade plans.
As for the lord wealthy businessman [Shen Sanwan] and the [richest man in the world] legion led by him, maybe they can try to have limited cooperation.
Using the other party's business acumen and time may be able to achieve the effect of 1+1\u003e2.
Activate part of the redundant trade potential of the current territory.
If you have money, it doesn't matter if everyone makes some money together. Anyway, it's much better than letting redundancy accumulate.
Thinking of this, Zong Shen nodded gently. His eyes changed from a deep thinking state to a relaxed state, and finally focused on the [temporary storage compartment] in front of him again.
Start checking out those [Unknown] and [Special] level items.
Soon, each "compressed package" was extracted and collectively decompressed.
Then put them all into the portable storage compartment, and then sort out the name list according to the order of the items so that you can view them one by one.
A clear list emerged, Zong Shen's heart stopped, and his thoughts swept over it quickly.
[The Green Goblin's Withered Rose (Unknown)]
[Mysterious White Tortoise Shell for Divination (Special)]
[The sycamore branches that are not afraid of flames (unknown)]
[The great thief Ka Mor’s home letter (unknown)]
[Incomplete Lucky Tarot Card: Major Arcana Card·Strength (Special)] (strength8)
[Burning Angel’s Dirty Light Feather (Special)]
[Ancient Secret Silk Scroll (Unknown)]
…
Unfortunately, even most lords cannot take advantage of such items.
However, the total amount of [Unknown] and [Special] items is not too much.
Zong Shen only got seven items in this wave.
It should be added here that the vast majority of [unknown] items cannot be used directly, but there may be things with passive effects.
As for the [special] items, they are either in a state of being broken, sealed, withering, dirty, losing power, or they have certain characteristics of magical items.
The specific situation needs to be checked before we can determine it.
