After listening to Soga's words, the shop owner couldn't help but look bitter and said bitterly: "boss, if I collect 14000, I can only earn 1000 merchants for a single mining pick, which is too low. You should know that as a businessman, the lowest profit also needs 20%. I've made an exception for 13000 merchants!"
Nodding, Soga said, "yes, I admit what you said is true, but don't forget, I'm a large number of goods, and... You can sell all these ore manuscripts in a year and win 100 million profits. Most importantly, with these ore picks, you can sit firmly in the top position in the transaction of collection tools in Fei Hong City, Can money measure the benefits? "
Speaking of this, Soga glanced at the boss slightly and said blandly, "don't look at the small income of a single piece. You have to calculate the general ledger, with a profit of 100 million a year. I think... It seems that you haven't had such a year since you built the store?"
"This..." after listening to Soga's words, the shopkeeper was sweating. Indeed... Before that, it was difficult to achieve an annual income of 10 million, but... Although that's what I said, no one has bought mining picks at such a high price!
When the shop owner hesitated, Soga shook his head helplessly and said, "since you are embarrassed, let's forget the deal. I'll buy a shop and sell it myself. Isn't it better for me to earn 100 million?"
"No!" When he heard Soga's words, the shop owner finally panicked. He knew very well that if Soga really opened a shop to sell, the top spot in the collection tool trading would not be his. Moreover... If Soga sold mineral pickaxes at the price of 15000, other shops could not compete at all!
Thinking of this, the shopkeeper suddenly clenched his teeth and said loudly, "well, fourteen thousand is fourteen thousand. I'll take it all! You can start trading now! "
After listening to the shopkeeper's words, Soga couldn't help laughing. Although... If you give the goods to the shopkeeper to sell, Soga will make less than 100 million, but you can take the money immediately. Moreover, Soga doesn't need to bother to promote sales, and it saves a whole year!
At the urging of the store owner, Soga soon completed the transaction, and 1.4 billion merchants also entered Soga's pocket. With their original money, Soga's assets reached 1.6 billion merchants. Looking at the large number on the business card, Soga almost moaned. How can we spend so much money!
While thinking, Soga turned to the shopkeeper and said, "well... I want to ask, if I want to buy some dream gemstones, where should I buy them?"
Slightly stunned, the shopkeeper said strangely, "don't you even know this? All dream gemstones will be listed for auction in the auction house. You can query the transaction information at any time and bid for your favorite dream gemstones! "
Hearing what the store owner said, Soga didn't stop for a moment. He couldn't wait to rush out of the store and rushed to the auction house. I just don't know what form the auction house will auction these dream gemstones?
Ten minutes later, Soga finally arrived at the auction house. As soon as he entered the auction house, Soga was shocked to find that the auction house here was completely different from the auction house he had seen before.
In the huge auction house, there are no seats, but rows of display racks are full. The display racks are up to two meters high. Each row is ten meters long and is divided into ten layers. Each layer is subdivided into ten grids. In each grid, there is a dream gem.
After about calculation, 1000 dream gemstones are displayed on only a row of display shelves! There are ten rows of the same display rack in the whole auction hall!
At the moment, in the huge auction hall, more than a dozen buyers are wandering back and forth between the display shelves, watching and selecting their favorite dream gemstones.
Seeing this scene, Soga breathed out a little and walked towards the display rack. Under close observation, each display rack was full of mysterious magic symbols. Although on the surface, the dream gemstones displayed were only covered by a layer of crystal cover, in fact, if anyone wanted to rob them, he would never succeed. Before you open the crystal cover, The dream gem inside will be removed, and then... You'll be surrounded by the guards of the auction house!
Looking at the display rack carefully, Soga understands the auction method. There is a price tag under each dream gem. The first line is the starting price, the second line is the buy it now price, and the third line is the highest price to buy the gem. If you want to bid for this gem, remember the number of the display rack, and then fill in the price on the counter, If no one bids higher than you, the gem will be yours as soon as the time comes.
Of course, there is also a time-saving method, that is, directly shoot the gemstones in the way of buy it now price. Although the price must be higher, it does not need any waiting. Insert the business card directly into the machine and you can pick up the goods on site!
One gem after another watched, and soon... Soga learned that dream gemstones are divided into ten levels, which can be used to improve the power and level of magic equipment. It is worth mentioning that the level of equipment must be the same as that of gemstones, otherwise it will have no effect.
That is to say, after upgrading the equipment to level 2, you can't use level 1 gems to upgrade, you must change level 2 gems, and after upgrading to level 3, you must use level 3 gems to upgrade, and so on.
And... The use of gemstones has a success rate. The success probability of all gemstones is 50%, but the first six levels do not reduce the level of equipment after failure. From the seventh level, once the use of gemstones fails, the equipment will directly return to zero level!
After calculation, Soga currently has a Atlantis suit, a Poseidon Trident, and many jewelry and rings. It seems that there are many parts that can be improved with gemstones, but in fact, if you want to use gemstones, not all equipment can.
If you want to use a dream gem, you need a certain volume. In terms of Atlantis suit, gloves and arm guards can't be used alone. The volume is too small, and they can be used as a hand guard.
Therefore, the whole Atlantis suit should be divided into six parts: hand protection (gloves + arm protection), upper body armor (chest protection + belt), pants armor (hip protection + pants armor), combat boots, crown and cloak. As for the jewelry, space ring, Spirit Necklace and other small things in the Atlantis suit, gemstones cannot be used. You know... The gem itself, It is several times, or even more than a dozen times, that these equipment are impossible to use.
After some calculation, Soga finally determined that he had seven magic equipment to smash gemstones. From level 1 to level 6, seven gemstones are needed for each level! If you continue to smash, there is a risk of explosion.
Soga began to carefully observe the price. First-order dream gem 1 million merchants, second-order dream gem 2 million merchants, third-order 4 million merchants, fourth-order 8 million merchants, fifth-order 20 million merchants and sixth-order 50 million merchants! Total 600 million!
He opened his mouth in horror. Soga couldn't believe the figures he calculated. Originally, Soga planned to smash all the equipment to level 10, but now it seems unlikely! There are hundreds of millions of dream gemstones above level 7. Soga now has only 1.6 billion. How many can you hit? You know... Dream gemstones have only a 50% probability, especially above level 7. Once smashed, all previous efforts will be wasted.
After thinking for a long time, Soga finally made a decision. For the time being, he smashed all the equipment to level 6, and then smashed the crown of Atlantis to level 10. The reason why he didn't smash the Trident was because the crown accelerated Soga's cultivation speed. The sooner he smashed it, the more benefits he would get. However, there was little difference between smashing the Trident and smashing it later.
The scene that made the staff of the auction house crazy appeared. Soga ran frantically between the display racks. He swiped his card frantically. In only more than ten minutes, Soga bought a large number of first-order gemstones. Then... Under the eyes of everyone, Soga rented a workshop and was ready to start smashing gemstones.
Dream gemstones are actually the crystallization of energy. For hundreds of millions of years, these energy stored in the depths of the earth condensed into crystals under the influence of high stability and high pressure, and then rose back to the ground with the change of the earth's crust to form dream gemstones.
The principle of using dream gemstones is to turn these dream gemstones into energy again, and form a self-contained energy cycle with the theme of smashed equipment. In this way, when the equipment works, this energy cycle will gather the surrounding energy with strong cohesion to increase the magic.
For more specific examples, it is equivalent to forming an energy vortex around the equipment, accelerating the attraction of surrounding energy with its strong attraction, and then converging on the equipment to strengthen the power of magic.
The success rate of using dream gem lies in how to form a stable and sound circulation system. Even if there is any breakpoint, the whole gem will disintegrate instantly, and the energy transformed from the gem will collapse.
Take out a first-order dream gem, Soga puts the gem into the decomposition box, and then puts the crown of Atlantis into the incubator. The so-called decomposition box actually uses the characteristics of magic to pull away one of the magic elements. In this way, after losing stability, the whole gem will collapse, and then... Put the equipment to be applied into the incubator, Will automatically absorb some kind of energy.
"Ding!" After taking a deep breath, Soga suddenly pulled down the pull rod on the decomposition bin. With a clear sound, the dream gem in the decomposition bin disintegrated on the spot. From the outside, the transparent dream gem in the decomposition bin disappeared completely and was replaced by a colorful light.
At the next moment... All the colored light, along the crystal channel, entered the cultivation chamber below. Among the colorful energy, a blue energy light quickly gathered towards the crown of Atlantis.
Seeing the blue light gradually wrapped the crown of Atlantis, Soga couldn't help but stop breathing. Although the whole process was only about a second, Soga felt that time seemed to stagnate.
"Hiss..." while Soga was looking forward, finally... In a slight whistling sound, colorful light spewed out from the air outlet on the side of the culture chamber. At the same time, the blue light around the Atlantis crown gradually separated from the surface of the Atlantis crown and disappeared without a trace.
"Hey..." smiled bitterly and shook his head. Soga knew that he had failed for the first time. There was no reason to talk about it. It was luck. Although on the surface, the probability of 50% was not low, no one knew what the result would be if he didn't hit it in person.
Although the first one failed and Soga lost a million merchants directly, Soga knew that the job of smashing gemstones was not something that the poor could do. He was reluctant to lose money, so it's better not to smash it.
While thinking, Soga sent a dream gem into the decomposition bin again without changing his face. With a clear sound, the gem turned into a colored light again and flowed into the lower cultivation bin.
This time, Soga seemed lucky. After just one second, the blue light film covering the crown of Atlantis did not dissipate, but floated on the surface of the crown as if it were nothing, looking like fluorescence.
He shook his fist excitedly. Soga took out the crown of Atlantis and put his upper body armor in. Unfortunately, he smashed three gemstones in a row, but all failed. He didn't succeed until he bought the last gemstone in the first batch.
Speechless looking at the two equipment that have hit the first-order gem, Soga can't help but have a bitter mouth. This is not 50%, which is clearly the success rate of less than 30%!
In desperation, Soga returned to the auction hall again. This time, he directly bought ten dream gemstones. Then he returned to the room and continued to smash... As a result, when all seven equipment successfully hit the first level, Soga spent a total of 24 dream gemstones, and the success rate was absolutely below 30%.
In doubt, Soga came to the counter and complained to the auctioneer, "madam, is there a problem with the dream gem you auctioned? Why don't I even have a 30% success rate? "
Hearing Soga's words, the auctioneer said patiently, "Sir, there is absolutely no problem with our dream gemstones. In fact, there can be no problem with dream gemstones anywhere. Although the 30% success rate may not satisfy you, I have to tell you that it is not low!"
Looking at the auctioneer in doubt, Soga said, "is this still high? Is there anyone lower than me? "
Smiling and nodding, the auctioneer said with a smile: "yes, the worst record is that he even smashed more than 800 pieces, but none of them succeeded, and the first order can't be raised."
Speaking of this, Miss auctioneer paused slightly, and then said word by word: "you must know that the so-called 50% success rate actually refers to every gem, that is, if you have bad luck, every gem will catch up with the 50% that failed, and it's no use how many you hit."
He nodded clearly. As soon as the auctioneer said, Soga immediately understood everything. Originally, in Soga's judgment, the so-called 50% should be 100 and 50, but in fact, this 50% refers to each one. If you are unlucky, you can't succeed by smashing 10000.
In desperation, Soga had to rush back to the display rack and directly bought 20 second-order gemstones. In order to facilitate customers, he bought so many because the rule of the auction house is that if you can't use them, you can return them at the original price.
In this regard, Soga smashed all the way. Until he spent the last sum of money, Soga bitterly found that his suit only hit level 4. The precious stones consumed by level 4 reached an amazing 1.6 billion! This money has just been earned today. It's terrible to spend it again before covering the heat.
Although, in just one afternoon, Soga spent all his money, but... Looking at the hazy, sapphire blue armor and weapons shrouded in her body, Soga still has a sense of achievement. From the auctioneer's miss, Soga learned that those who smashed the complete set of equipment to more than level 4 are definitely the overlord of one party. Casual people can't have such financial resources!
Put on the full set of armor, for a time, the sapphire blue light on the armor seemed to be connected into one, like water shuttling around the body. Soga's whole body was plated with a layer of sapphire blue and flowing light film.
Although most of the money was spent, Soga had nothing to complain about. Soga's success rate was always about 30%. It was learned from the auctioneer that although the success rate was not high, it also belonged to the upper middle level.
When he left the auction house with satisfaction, it was completely dark. When he saw the figure of Soga, everyone threw a surprised glance. You know, it is very rare for people to raise the whole set of equipment to such a high level. Many people can't see it once in their life.
Seeing everyone's surprised eyes, Soga was proud for a while, and then suddenly woke up. Although the equipment was popular, it was also too eye-catching. The so-called everyone is innocent and bears the sin of the wall. If people stare at it, is there another good thing? Although Soga has confidence in his strength, he is not arrogant and arrogant.
Soga quickly turned and ran towards the tailor's shop, rushed directly into the shop, bought the largest black cloak, and wrapped his armor tightly without a trace of light.
Looking in the mirror, Soga looked at his image carefully. Under the huge black cloak, Soga looked full of mystery. The cloak was unusually wide. The lower part was dragged on the ground. The huge head touched the hat, which hid Soga's face deeply inside. At a glance, it was gloomy and strange.
"Hoo..." relieved, Soga patted his chest secretly. Fortunately... Although this cloak looks strange, it successfully blocked other people's eyes. Otherwise, Soga may be unable to move.
After buying the cloak, Soga had to leave the city and had no money. At present, the most profitable thing is probably to transport a batch of pickaxes back. Half a month later, Soga took the boat back to the first level again. On the deck, Soga took a long note and looked carefully with a frown. What was recorded on the note was the detailed process of Soga smashing gemstones. Soga hoped to find some rules from it.
