Chapter 373： Share risks (ask for double monthly pass)

Chapter 373 Sharing risks (asking for double monthly votes)

“Is there a communication meeting this afternoon?”

"Yes! It started this afternoon and lasted for three days. This exchange meeting was held temporarily. I didn't pay much attention to this aspect. I only found out about it this morning. The specific situation is..."

Qu Shilin explained it to Wang Tao very carefully.

This exchange meeting actually has something to do with the catacombs...

The matter of the underground caves has been concealed by those major forces. The cake may only be so big, and the more people know about it, the less benefit they may share. So they prepared to conceal the information and make a quick decision.

But the appearance of the zombie tide outside disrupted their plan. According to the original plan, we should fully explore the crypt today, but now we don’t know how long we will be delayed by the zombie tide.

No one can keep a secret forever, let alone the fact that the people who know about the underground cave are not just one or two people, but several powerful people. As time goes by, more and more information will be leaked.

We don’t know how long we will stay at the base yet. We may not even be able to go to the cave after the Chinese New Year. It will be a matter of time before the news is completely exposed, and it may be very troublesome by then...

Of course, these forces can actually guard the entrance to the cave and prevent others from entering. Anyway, everything outside is ownerless. In theory, as long as you can protect it, it belongs to whoever finds it.

But there is a problem, that is, they are not sure how big the cave is and how many entrances it has. They have discovered two entrances so far, and these two entrances are still far away.

Although one entrance is no longer in use, there is only one entrance left. But what if there are other entrances?

It is conceivable that when this news breaks out, there will definitely be a wave of exploration of the catacombs and looking for the entrance to the catacombs. If someone really found him, they wouldn't be able to stop him at all.

So these forces think that "blocking is worse than sparing."

Anyway, judging from the current situation, it is inevitable that the news will be completely exposed, maybe in the next few days, and they will not be able to unearth it secretly. Their only advantage now is to know the specific location of the entrance to the cave...

So we simply took the initiative to announce the news and invite other forces to participate. In this case, if nothing else, at least it will gain more favor than "blocking the entrance to prevent others from entering".

Of course, they are not philanthropic and cannot allow everyone to participate unconditionally.

Let’s not talk about the cost they paid to discover this cave. Let’s just say that the cave is complicated and having more people is not necessarily a good thing.

Thinking about the dark side, if someone is there specifically to carry out vendettas, sneak attacks, etc., how can they explore?

So this participation also has a threshold, and this participation method is quite special. It does not mean that others can go in and explore directly, but that others can explore indirectly by taking shares.

Simply put, does anyone else want to participate in the cave exploration? sure! All you need to do is give money or supplies to the forces that discovered the caves. You can choose a force that is pleasing to your eye, and when the time comes, everyone will share the good things according to a certain proportion!

Wang Tao heard Qu Shilin explain to this point and immediately called him a good guy.

These people are all talents!

Due to the emergence of the zombie tide, the matter in the catacombs might have become a crisis. As a result, after some manipulation by them, it turned into a business opportunity!

Wang Tao can't say what it will look like in practice, but he feels that this matter is indeed promising.

Because he learned from Cheng Yiyi that there is a high probability of making money by exploring the caves, but it is not 100%. Although there are good things in the cave, it is also very dangerous.

When these forces ask others to provide money or materials, it is equivalent to sharing the risk.

This is like many big guys doing business before the end of the world. Although he is fully capable of investing alone, he may still find a partner. In addition to the partners' own strength, the purpose is also to share risks.

The situation is the same now. Letting others participate with capital will also share a lot of risks.

And Wang Tao thinks this has two benefits.

One is that everyone may be in a competitive relationship. The more people enter the cave, the greater the competition and the more chaotic it will be. A chaotic state is clearly inappropriate for exploratory work.

But now that outsiders have become shareholders, everyone has a cooperative relationship. It suddenly became stable!

Another thing is that these forces only allow outsiders to contribute money, materials and shares, but not outsiders. In other words, the people exploring the caves are still forces like them... Then there are many ways in between!

If you really meet someone with a bad heart, he says that they have not made anything underground, but have lost a lot, and all the previous investments of shareholders have been wasted, what should you do?

Even if your heart is not that dark, you can still do some small actions. For example, the profit is obviously 100 yuan, but after one operation, the profit becomes 50 yuan...

As for whether other people will invest in shares after knowing the news... you will know from the exchange meeting Qu Shilin mentioned.

After the news about the local caves was announced to a certain extent, there were too many people who wanted to participate in investment! So those forces prepared to hold an exchange meeting and invite other forces in the base to come and participate in investment!

It can be simply understood that in this exchange meeting, these major forces are asking for money, and there is an endless stream of people who are willing to give money!

The reason why everyone is willing to invest is that these forces have a good reputation.

In the base, reputation is very important. The larger the power, the more attention it pays to its own reputation, and they put a lot of effort into maintaining their reputation. So many people think their credibility is relatively high.

Another thing is that many people understand it very well and just treat it as a simple investment.

Since it is an investment, it naturally involves risks. As long as they feel that the benefits outweigh the risks, they can invest.

 And it is also beneficial to only provide money but not others. At least no matter they win or lose, their lives are still there...

"This exchange meeting is not only for other people to invest in shares or something, but it is also a product exchange meeting. For example, our research institute has an exhibition hall at this exchange meeting, selling gadgets to subsidize household expenses... I mean, to Why don’t you take your Night Devil hearts to the exchange meeting and sell them? After all, Night Devil Type I is one of the best choices for investment..."

Qu Shilin explained again.

[Night Demon Type I] is a good thing, but Wang Tao gave too much! There are a total of 70 Night Demon hearts, and not many forces can eat them. After she let the news out, many big forces sent people over. They wanted it all but didn't want to pay such a high price.

Moreover, these big forces have all agreed upon it, and their prices are all very similar, giving Qu Shilin no chance to take advantage.

Qu Shilin was a little helpless. After all, this was something Wang Tao asked her to do. If she sold it at a lower price, even if Wang Tao didn't mind, she would be embarrassed. That's not to say that she has to sell it for a sky-high price, but at least it can't be lower than the last price, right?

After hearing the news about this exchange meeting, Qu Shilin went to inquire about it, and then she thought it would be better to take the heart to the exchange meeting to have a look. Since they are not willing to pay more, there are some forces who are willing to pay. They are not the only big powers, there are others as well.

Those forces may want to take a share of the pie like the Sixth Legion - the few large forces that discovered the caves can block other small and medium-sized forces, but they will certainly not be able to stop these large forces.

Let them compete when the time comes, and the price of this heart will go up!

“Okay, since it’s been left to you, you can make your own decision.”

Wang Tao doesn’t really care about more money or less money, as long as he can make money.

He is very interested in this exchange meeting, maybe there will be some good things for sale...

“Okay, then I will take the things and let you know when they are sold out. I think I should be able to sell them all soon and sell them at a good price...”

Qu Shilin nodded, and then asked:

"I have something else to do. When did you discuss with Xiang Hongbin? Did you two secretly discuss with me behind my back?"

Qu Shilin's tone was a little suspicious.

It has been more than a day since Wang Tao returned to the city. Wang Tao had promised to invite her to watch Xiang Hongbin's actual combat ability, but she was never informed... She had reason to wonder whether Wang Tao had secretly sparred with Xiang Hongbin. .

"That's not true. I don't know Xiang Hongbin's specific combat strength now. As for Xiang Hongbin... he is awakening." Wang Tao said with a smile.

“Hiss—he can still wake up!”

Qu Shilin was shocked.

According to Xiang Hongbin's physical data, he has the combat power of an awakened person. Now that he's awakened again, wouldn't that be equivalent to the combat power of two or even more awakened people?

Qu Shilin can't wait to appear next to Wang Tao now to see how strong Xiang Hongbin is.

“Haha, isn’t it a surprise? I’m surprised too. How about Xiang Hongbin wakes up tomorrow and we go outside to test his strength?”

Wang Tao invited.

In any case, Xiang Hongbin is as strong as he is now because of Qu Shilin, so he must let Qu Shilin take a good look at it. Moreover, if something goes wrong with Xiang Hongbin's prosthetics, no one among them can fix them, and they have to count on Qu Shilin.

"That's great, thank you!"

Qu Shilin was immediately overjoyed. Then he seemed to think of something and said quickly:

"By the way, do you have time today, why don't you come to my house? As I said before, I have some things similar to monster eggs at home, and I want you to help take a look!"

The exchange meeting was held not far from Qu Shilin's villa. He planned to send the Daredevil's heart there and then return home. Then she thought about it and mentioned it casually.

“Okay, you give me an address and I’ll go there now.”

Wang Tao has nothing to do for the time being, so it is no problem to help Qu Shilin. After all, others have helped him a lot.

Moreover, Wang Tao had just finished sorting out the equipment in his backpack, and there was a lot of equipment that he couldn't use. He had previously said that he would give Qu Shilin some pieces of equipment as a reward, so he just happened to send them together.

“Okay! I’m...I’m waiting for you at home!”

Qu Shilin immediately gave Wang Tao an address.

After Wang Tao wrote it down, he went over and said to Ding Yuqin and others:

“Sister-in-law, I’m going to Qu Shilin’s house.”

“Okay, will you come back in the evening?”

…”

Wang Tao was a little speechless. He had to come back at night to see Hong Bin and the others wake up.

“Sister-in-law, wait for me obediently at home, and I will teach you a lesson when I come back in the evening!”

Wang Tao slapped Ding Yuqin on the buttocks.

Ding Yuqin immediately rolled her eyes at him, but when she thought of the physical experience last night, her body became a little weak...

“Hmph~ Who is afraid of whom?”

…

Wang Tao drove a crystal energy car and left the villa area alone.

On the way, when passing by a bank, Wang Tao suddenly remembered something.

“I almost forgot, I have to exchange some crystal cores!”

Wang Tao said before that he wanted to increase the health of [Iron Beetle] and [Night Demon II] to full value. These two things are still very helpful to him and his team.

But he has no crystal cores in his hand and needs to exchange for some crystal cores.

He had spent all the crystal coins in his hand to open the meteorite, but Qu Shilin happened to give him the money from selling her heart. Ten million crystal coins were enough.

Crystal coins can be directly exchanged for crystal cores. The ratio is fixed and only a small handling fee is required. For the sake of efficiency, Wang Tao made another expedited order, so even if he needed a large quantity, he could still replace it quickly.

Getting in the car again, Wang Tao sighed as he looked at the 10,000 fourth-order white crystal nuclei with no attributes in his space backpack. There were so many combatants in Changhe Base and they produced a large number of crystal nuclei. It only takes ten minutes to exchange so many crystal cores...

Then Wang Tao took out 5 Night Demon Hearts and 2 Iron Beetles.

These five Night Demon hearts are all of the fifth-level [Night Demon II] type, and the upper limit of their blood volume is 200,000. To increase it to the upper limit, you need 1,900 fourth-order white crystal cores, and 5 hearts equal 9,500 crystal cores.

Two iron beetles have a maximum health limit of 100,000, but they already have 50,000 health, so they only need 50 cores each.

This adds up to a total of 9,700 crystal cores. This consumption is terrifying. Fortunately, Wang Tao made a small profit from selling the heart of the Night Demon, which is just enough.

“Spending money is so fast!”

Wang Tao sighed a little.

The 10 million he earned was almost all spent in less than three days...

When they arrived outside Qu Shilin's villa, the iron beetle in Wang Tao's car had already fused all the crystal nuclei, but the Night Demon's heart hadn't yet. After all, there were too many crystal nuclei. Normally, it would be better to fuse fifth-order crystal cores, but Wang Tao didn't have many fifth-order crystal cores in his hand, and banks couldn't exchange them for fifth-order crystal cores, so he had to use fourth-order ones.

“Wang Tao!”

Wang Tao contacted Qu Shilin before arriving, and she was waiting at the door.

When Wang Tao got out of the car, she saw the Night Devil's heart on Wang Tao's car seat.

“Eh? Why do the Night Demon hearts in your car feel so different?”

Qu Shilin frowned. As a scientific researcher, her observation skills are still very keen.

“Because this is the fifth level.”

Wang Tao said casually.

"Ah? Level five, level five? Can you kill a level five night demon? Really or not!"

Qu Shilin was a little dumbfounded.
