From Dungeon to Gaming Empire

The economic and trade diplomacy between territories is also a very sophisticated and wise matter.

……

Twenty minutes later.

Qi Ji held a banquet at the lord's mansion.

This is the first time Miracle City has received guests.

This person is none other than Ran Tianyun, the lord from Tianyun City!

However, the lord generally does not descend in person to other people's territory.

The one who appeared here at this moment was just a projection of Ran Tianyun.

Ran Tianyun noticed that although the Lord's Mansion in Miracle City was very simple, the food and drinks that Qi Ji took out to entertain him were extraordinary.

The lord can go without food or drink.

As long as your mental strength is not exhausted, you will not die of thirst or hunger.

They can consume mental energy to directly replenish physical needs.

However, for a human being, eating to fill the stomach is secondary. Food and wine are a kind of enjoyment in themselves. In addition, banquets are also an important social activity.

now.

The hall of the Lord's Mansion in Miracle City.

There were many flower fairies and dwarf maids busy at work.

Two flower fairy maids were grilling a piece of top-grade Wagyu beef. The steak with a marbling texture was constantly making a sizzling sound as it came into contact with the scorching iron plate, and the aroma of the meat emanating from it had a faint milky flavor.

Nancy Liya holds a bottle of Lafite.

Fill the glasses of the lord and his guests.

"My territory is simple and my hospitality capacity is limited. Lord Ran, please don't mind."

"Hahaha, Brother Qi, you are too polite."

Ran Tianyun took a sip.

First, the nose smells the mellow aroma of aged fruit wine, and then the taste is as delicate as velvet. The taste is slightly sour at first, but soon you can feel the layers of fragrance and sweetness. Finally, the aftertaste is long with a sense of oak and minerals.

He was pleasantly surprised: "This is really good wine!"

Qi Ji: "They are just basic supplies produced in the secret realm. If Lord Ran likes them, you can take some back."

He had never drunk wines like Lafite or Conti in his previous life, and he didn't know how the secret realm's output compared to the top products in his previous life.

However, based on common consumer goods such as beer and cola, it is not difficult to judge that all materials produced in the secret realm are not inferior to the highest quality of similar products in the previous life, and may even be better.

Even a mediocre beer.

It will also taste better than any top brands or fresh beers you have ever seen in your previous life.

Miracle City currently produces a very high amount of this kind of ordinary materials, especially after the opening of the "End Arena" secret realm, from which it produces a large amount of high-end consumer goods such as top-grade red wine, wagyu beef, ham, cigars, black truffles, and king crabs.

In order to release liquidity, Qi Ji solved the problem of severe shortage of contribution points in the hands of adventurers.

He will also give recycling quotes for these high-quality consumer products.

At this rate, the warehouse will soon be full.

These goodies can indeed greatly improve Boss Qi's quality of life, but Qi Ji is not a glutton. He can't eat up all the supplies in the warehouse, right? So he is also trying to find a sales channel to turn these supplies into cash.

He even wanted to open restaurants and supermarkets in places like Blackrock Town.

Miracle City supplies these restaurants and supermarkets, making money from adventurers and thus increasing the territory's income.

However, although the population of Blackrock Town is acceptable, most of the adventurers are first-level newbies. The consumption potential of such a market is limited in a short period of time. Today, we specially entertained Ran Tianyun in the hope of seeking cooperation from him.

Ran Tianyun tasted white wine, red wine, beer, top-grade snowflake Wagyu beef, Iberian ham, cigars, and Chinese cigarettes in turn.

All of a sudden.

It's like discovering a new world.

Only then did he realize that Miracle City had more than just good things like guns.

Even basic supplies like these are extremely competitive and good things!

Don't underestimate ordinary materials without any grade, and don't underestimate the pursuit of a better material life and enjoyment by human beings and all intelligent creatures. Human nature is the same whether on Earth or in this world.

As the saying goes.

Things are rare.

Consumption can determine class.

The quality of basic supplies in Miracle City is the highest that Ran Tianyun has ever seen.

He was sure that if a bottle of Miracle City red wine could find a suitable channel and be delivered to people in need, its value would definitely not be lower than that of a good quality first-level spirit.

Ran Tianyun is an experienced lord.

He immediately realized a huge business opportunity!

Miracle City’s biggest problem at the moment is that it has no channels and no market.

Tianyun City has been operating for decades and has more than one million official citizens. If the affiliated citizens, nearby indigenous allies, and national forces are also included, the local market is definitely over 10 million people.

And this is just the domestic market!

Tianyun City has a network of contacts that has been cultivated for many years.

These are the foundations that Miracle City cannot replicate in a short period of time.

The last time Qi Ji and Ran Tianyun met, they signed an order for 300 M16s or firearms of the same grade per week. The purchase price offered by Tianyun City was as high as 50 soul crystals or equivalent material essences per gun.

The purchase price is very high.

Qi Ji took it to the Lord's Market to sell it himself.

An M16 may not be able to be sold at this price.

Because 50 soul crystals can definitely buy a medium-quality white equipment.

Why could Ran Tianyun offer such a high purchase price? Because he had sufficient channels and markets to sell at a higher price, and he might even make more money than Qi Ji, the supplier!

Otherwise, why would Ran Tianyun be so anxious to establish a strategic partnership with Miracle City?

Of course, Qi Ji didn’t know how much Ran Tianyun had earned, and there was no need to know for the time being. How much he earned was up to him. What was more important for Miracle City now was stability and development!

After three rounds of drinking.

That’s pretty much it for small talk and preparation.

After a meal, the two sides became much closer and could already be called brothers.

Ran Tianyun then took out a bead and said, "This is the Linghai Pearl I found today. The moment I got it, the first thing I thought of was Brother Qi. Please take a look!"

[Spirit Sea Pearl (First Level)], a rare grey material, consumes 5000 points of mental power to refine and absorb, and can obtain an additional chance to activate the crystal, which can only take effect once.

That's right.

This is what Qi Ji wants.

The Spirit Sea Pearls are divided into grades. Each grade of Spirit Pearl can only be used once. The higher the grade of the Spirit Pearl, the rarer it is and the greater the consumption in absorbing and refining it.

Qi Ji: "This item is indeed very useful to me. Lord Ran, please name a price!"

Ran Tianyun said directly: "I spent 42,000 soul crystals to buy this pearl, and I won't take advantage of you, brother, so I will sell it to you at the original price!"

For this price.

Qi Ji quite agreed.

The price of a first-level Linghai Pearl is indeed around 40,000.

If purchased in the Lord World Market, the price may be even higher.

With Miracle City's current strength, it is not impossible to acquire the full amount, but this will place a considerable burden on the territory. Ran Tianyun also intends to strengthen cooperation with Miracle City, so the two sides have worked out a cooperation plan after some discussion.

Pay a down payment of 1.2 soul crystals first.

Tianyun City plans to increase the Miracle City arms order from 300 to 500 starting next week. The order price remains at 50 soul crystals. In addition, they plan to discuss the purchase of a batch of basic supplies. The specific categories, quantities and prices will be discussed later.

This way.

The weekly trade volume between Miracle City and Tianyun City will easily reach around 3 soul crystals.

20% of the weekly transaction volume is used to pay the balance of the Lingzhu until it is fully paid off.

After the agreement was reached, Miracle City could easily obtain the important treasure, while Tianyun City could ensure a stable supply for at least five weeks in the future, laying a good foundation for early cooperation.

have to say.

From this negotiation and transaction.

Qi Ji felt the maturity and sophistication of a senior lord.

Ran Tianyun is indeed a good businessman, and he is also a lord with great vision and wisdom.

There was a reason why he had been able to manage his territory stably for decades and gradually build Tianyun City into the largest underground city in Blackrock Town.

Qi Ji believed that he would not lose to any talented lord in terms of secret realm creation, but he still needed to learn more from these veteran lords in terms of territory management and diplomatic mediation.

The business is over.

There are still three hours left to Kaesong.

Qi Ji needs to hurry up to integrate the secret realm and cannot continue to entertain guests.

So let Nancy Liya and Arnold take Ran Tianyun to visit various places in the territory.

Ran Tianyun said, "I have another favor to ask of you."

Qi Ji: "Please speak."

"I've heard for a long time that the secret realm of Miracle City is unique, even unparalleled in the world. All adventurers who have experienced it praise it as if it were a fascination. I've been around for decades and have never seen anything like it, so I'm very curious."

Ran Tianyun paused and continued, "I wonder if I could be allowed to observe and learn a thing or two?"

It's not a big deal either.

The secret contents of Miracle City are no secret either.

Every day, a large group of adventurers share their experiences and strategies on the Adventurer Forum.

Although the Adventurer Forum cannot upload pictures, texts, or videos, outsiders cannot see the specific situation of the Miracle City Secret Realm, but they can get a general idea from the text description, and Ran Tianyun can also log in to the Black Stone Town Adventurer Forum.

That's why he was so curious.

Even if this matter has been verified by multiple parties, it is highly credible.

But Ran Tianyun still couldn't believe that anyone could create such an exaggerated secret realm.

and so.

He wanted to see it with his own eyes.

Is the secret realm of Miracle City really that magical?

"Such a small matter is not a problem. Lord Ran and his friends can come and provide guidance at any time."

Qi Ji is very confident.

So there's nothing to hide.

These leaders were so excited to watch that they stayed in Miracle City every day instead of doing their jobs, watching the adventurers in Miracle City play games. Maybe it could even boost GDP!

Each of them is a top tycoon and can be trained to become a big sponsor in the live broadcast industry!

Just a little bit leaked out from between the lord's fingernails.

Quite an adventurer to go without food or water for decades.

In addition, Ran Tianyun is currently the most important strategic partner of Miracle City. Letting him see the secret realm of the territory with his own eyes can also increase his confidence, so that he will be more active and proactive in making concessions or helping in the subsequent cooperation.

For example.

Qi Ji's personal level is level four.

A maximum of four Spirit Sea Pearls can be used.

However, his channels and connections are hard to come by. If a lord like Ran Tianyun helps with all his strength, the probability of obtaining second-level and third-level spirit beads will be greatly increased!
