Chapter 51: Trading Hall
Hang Yu began editing new tasks.
The first task was exploration and hunting.
He wanted the Players to explore and hunt nearby wild monsters, collecting more different materials and specialties.
Although hunting humanoid monsters yielded more Essence and Abyssal Magic Crystals, and not only directly dropped equipnt but also had a slight chance of dropping Skill Stones, they usually did not drop materials, so from a returns perspective, they were generally inferior to wild monsters.
It was necessary to encourage Players to collect more materials.
Because the initial stage of territory construction required a large amount of materials.
Materials dropped by wild monsters varied; so were suitable for forging, so for alchemy, and of course, more materials had low direct production value and could only be converted into Material Essence for construction or production support.
Therefore, it was very necessary to figure out the output of the monsters.
At the current stage, wild monsters that could drop forging materials had the highest value.
The Scorpion-Tailed Wild Bulls and Skeletal Mountain Goats across from Hexi Village were examples; the materials they dropped were particularly suitable for forging, thus could create greater value.
The Skeletal Scorpion-Tailed Bull was a level 5 Elite.
In terms of level, it was even one level lower than the Fallen Xu Feng.
However, the Skeletal Scorpion-Tailed Bull could drop high-quality leather, normally producing three to four pieces per kill, and because of the Players' tenfold drop rate, it exploded into forty pieces at once.
These materials, once processed by Forgers in the territory, eventually turned into six sets of Skeletal Wild Bull Equipnt, each set worth 4000 Contribution Points even at the wholesale price.
Just from the materials dropped by this one bull.
It could create nearly 30,000 Contribution Points worth of value for the territory.
Such monsters were extrely valuable, and if there were more nearby, they must be found and hunted regularly based on their respawn ti.
Previously, Hang Yu’s thod of material collection was quite simple and rough.
He rely issued material missions for indiscriminate collection.
This was because Hang Yu also did not know what materials could be produced near the territory; in the future, they could be categorized based on value to encourage Players to hunt more useful materials.
Besides material collection.
Equipnt recycling was also a good business.
Hang Yu noticed that after the Hexi Village Defense Battle, Players had stockpiled over a hundred pieces of grey equipnt and more than twenty pieces of white-quality equipnt.
So useless trash equipnt could be dismantled into Equipnt Crystals.
These were core materials used to repair damaged equipnt and restore durability.
As for equipnt with decent attributes and good value, they could be hoarded for future new Player task rewards, or sold through territory trade to exchange for more useful resources.
Next.
Hang Yu edited two more tasks.
The second task was investigating He Ting Town.
The main goal was to search for the Fate Crystal Stone of He Ting Town.
Although the area had been completely destroyed and had no developnt value, any place that had housed a town would give birth to a Fate Crystal Stone, which could be converted into considerable rewards and even create a new teleportation point.
The third task was investigating the Core Contamination Zone.
The main goal was to find this map's BOSS, Ma Yuanyi.
Given the Players' current strength, the survival rate for this task was slim!
But this was exactly Hang Yu’s purpose, to both cause Player casualties and harvest important intelligence!
This group of Players had already adapted to the style of Twisted Three Kingdoms, and it was normal to be abused by the BOSS in this type of suffering ga; it was part of the ga experience, and Hang Yu believed the Players would not be afraid but would instead develop strong curiosity and a desire for challenge!
For the sake of territory developnt.
He asked the Players to endure more hardship!
After editing the three tasks.
Hang Yu asked, "How much resource reserves do we currently have?"
Xiao Ba imdiately reported, "Master currently owns 141 Abyssal Magic Crystals, 1058 units of Tier-One Material Essence, 612 units of Tier-One Material inventory, 3255 units of Tier-One Food inventory, 8100 Essence in reserve, and 89456 Abyssal Magic Stone Fragnts."
Hang Yu felt a bit of a headache.
The territory’s finances had completely bottod out.
It was even insufficient for tonight’s batch of Player recruitnt.
After attacking Hexi Village, because he annexed the Fate Crystal Stone and received a reward of 500 Abyssal Magic Crystals, the magic crystal reserves had once reached 1091, which theoretically could last several more days.
But building the Alchemy Workshop and the Skill Tower had cost 600.
Recruiting the Alchemist had cost 150.
Recruiting Players yesterday had cost 200.
Only this much was left now.
Hang Yu said, "Luckily I stockpiled a batch of Abyssal Magic Stone Fragnts, which can temporarily relieve the urgent crisis!"
Xiao Ba imdiately asked, "Master, do you want to refine the Abyssal Magic Stone Fragnts? You currently own 89456 pieces, which can be refined into 89 Abyssal Magic Crystals!"
Hang Yu said, "Refine them all!"
Every one hundred Abyssal Magic Stone Fragnts could be synthesized into one Abyssal Magic Stone, and ten Abyssal Magic Stones could be refined into one Abyssal Magic Crystal, so the magic stones obtained from killing monsters were the future core financial resource for the territory.
Why had Hang Yu set up such a harsh death penalty chanism?
Making Players drop all their Abyssal Magic Stone Fragnts upon death?
Wasn’t it precisely to prevent Players from hoarding them, thus blocking the flow into territory developnt? Although Abyssal Magic Crystals were the natural currency between Stars and Abyss, Hang Yu did not want Players to use them as currency!
As the Lord!
As the ga planner!
Hang Yu must firmly grasp the right to mint currency!
For this, he created the Contribution Points system, designed a harsh drop chanism for magic stones, and opened the function to exchange Abyssal Magic Stone Fragnts for Contribution Points, with every one hundred pieces exchangeable for one Contribution Point.
Thus.
Players would be unlikely to hoard large amounts of magic stones.
The final result would be that the magic stones generated during territory expansion could all be used for developnt.
As for the Players, they gradually accepted Contribution Points as the territory’s currency, since the value of Contribution Points had already been anchored to various services, and Hang Yu would soon issue circulating currency based on Contribution Points in different denominations.
【Abyssal Magic Stone Fragnts -89000!】
【Abyssal Magic Crystals 89!】
Hang Yu successfully refined all the magic stone fragnts.
At first glance, the quantity seed small, but in reality, it was already very good!
After all, it had only been five days since Hang Yu descended into the Abyss, and his entire troop plus personal guards added up to just 58 people; gaining this many Abyssal Magic Crystals with so few people and so little ti was already a miracle!
All this was thanks to the Players' aggressive adventuring, indomitable spirit, and the tenfold drop rate; in the future, as ti progressed and the number of Players grew, magic stone inco would beco the core pillar of territory finances!
Current Abyssal Magic Crystal reserves: 230!
Tonight’s Player summoning would be no problem!
After a brief hesitation and thought, Hang Yu finally decided not to save this batch of Abyssal Magic Crystals for the evening, because even if tonight’s recruitnt funds were solved, what about tomorrow and the day after?
He must further open up inco sources!
Gain more revenue channels!
Hang Yu summoned the Lord Panel, opened the territory construction function, and finally found one of the buildings.
【Trading Hall】, construction cost 200 Abyssal Magic Crystals and 500 units of Tier-One Material Essence, currently constructable quantity 0/1.
The current resources happened to be just enough to build this structure.
What was the Trading Hall?
As the na implied, it was a lord trading platform!
It allowed lords of the sa race and different planes to establish resource trade channels.
Although the construction cost was not expensive, there were prerequisites: the territory could only build the Trading Hall after owning the Forging Workshop, Alchemy Workshop, and Skill Tower.
Hang Yu had already completed the construction of the three basic buildings, and the territory’s stockpiled resources happened to be just enough, so he decisively chose to build it, which was of great significance to both territory developnt and finances!
【Abyssal Magic Crystals -200, Tier-One Material Essence -500!】
【You have built the Trading Hall!】
