Arcane Lord

Niya's words also reminded Xia Duo of some sayings in his hometown. It is said that old people will quickly become weak when they are idle. In fact, their bodies have reached a limit and they rely solely on their mental strength to support them, and mental strength is what they want to do. .

Although Niya's father's side is not so serious, if you don't pay attention to it, some bad things will inevitably happen.

Thinking of this, Shado came up with an idea, "How about letting Epps go to Savile? It just so happens that Savile is also short of people, and for your father, it would be good to do research with his grandfather." It’s a new beginning.”

Of course, Niya thought it was too perfunctory, and he added, "If he feels uncomfortable after arriving at the Plane Exploration Center, I will also support him in setting up his own independent research laboratory, and he will also have a share in the third-level laboratory."

"Let him follow his great-grandfather first!" Niya agreed to Xia Duo's suggestion, but also said, "Forget it for a few days, lest he thinks we are annoying him and want to drive him away. I will mention this to him again after a while. thing."

"Well, you can decide the specific time."

…

A night of silence.

Early the next morning, Xia Duo returned to the study after breakfast. While sorting out the ideas for research on the power of order and planning the next research plan, he waited for his secretary to send him the daily briefing.

But today was a little different from usual. Cecily, who came with a face full of excitement, came at the same time as the four secretaries. Seeing this scene, Chateau also had some guesses about Cecily's purpose, and felt a little nervous in his heart. information.

The four secretaries are responsible for collecting and organizing information in different fields, including the internal situation of the Tower of Time, the external dispatch situation of the Tower of Time, various affairs of the Great Xia Territory, and the basic situation of the Savile Territory and foreign merchants.

After Xia Duo read the briefing and combined with the previous briefing, he had a clear understanding of the development trajectory of the territory and Tower of Time affairs.

And just when he put down the briefing in his hand, Cecily, who had not spoken much since entering the study, suddenly couldn't help it anymore:

"I also have something to report!"

"Is it about the sales of third-generation communication instruments? Looking at the expression on your face, I can tell that the recent sales have been very good. Tell me, how many have been sold?"

"As of the data obtained from the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce this morning, there are currently more than 10,000 Tower of Time third-generation communication instruments sold in various places, more specifically 13,054 pieces!"

Hearing this number, even though Xia Duo had already estimated the sales volume, he never expected that it would exceed 10,000 pieces. This number may be inconspicuous in his hometown, but you must know that Netheril is still in the Classical Era.

Although the price of communication instruments is not sky-high, it is not affordable for everyone. Considering the actual practical threshold, he originally thought that having 5,000 pieces would be a big deal.

The cost of the third-generation communication instrument of the Tower of Time is actually about the same as that of the second-generation, about 800 gold coins, but the price given to the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce is 2,000 gold coins (sale settlement price), which is a direct increase of 800 gold coins compared to the second-generation!

Even if the appearance is much more exquisite than the second generation, how many people are willing to spend 800 gold coins more for the appearance?

Most of the mage community is relatively pragmatic, and few are willing to be taken advantage of until there is not much improvement in actual functions. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why the previous three generations of communication magic tools were unsaleable.

But selling more than 10,000 pieces now is indeed a bit exaggerated, completely beyond Xia Duo's expectations.

According to the current sales volume, in less than a week, the Tower of Time can earn more than 10 million gold coins from the third generation communication weapon!

What a hugely profitable business this is!

If he could sell more than 10,000 pieces every week in the future, Xia Duo would be able to wake up laughing, but he also knew that this was impossible. If he could sell so many more in the next year, it would be very, very good. Got it!

According to his estimate, the total population of Netheril is close to 20 million. If the proportion of spellcasters is calculated as one percent, the total number of spellcasters is only 200,000!

Now in the first week - it can be considered the first week, after all, Mystery Lock has been updated with new functions - more than 10,000 pieces of the third-generation communication magic weapon have been sold, which is equivalent to more than 60% of Netheril's spellcasters buying it!

In such a comparison, it is another very exaggerated number!

Of course, it may actually be that some Mage Tower organizations purchased some in bulk for distribution to their members or for cracking research.

In addition, there are some people outside the group of spellcasters who cannot be ignored, such as businessmen, adventurers, or officials of various territories outside the Bactria Territory and their families, etc.

The price of 2,000 gold coins is not sky-high, and many ordinary people can still come up with such a sum of money just by gritting their teeth.

But now the more than 10,000 users have probably reached a certain limit, and it will take time to increase it little by little. However, Xia Duo is not in a hurry. In fact, he hopes that the growth rate will be slightly slower!

It would be best to wait until Niya breaks through the current limit of 420,000 nodes of the communication mystery lock and completes the mystery lock update, and it will not be too late for another wave of rapid development.

Therefore, it is estimated that the growth point of Communication Mystery Lock users will explode in Daxia Territory for quite some time, unless the elf market is developed, but it is not necessary for the time being. There are too many communication magic weapons in the elf side, and the market is almost saturated, and the price War is not what Xia Duo wants. He often engages in price wars and lowers the quality of his brand.

The Void Warehouse itself is a special type of high-end service. It is reasonable to lower the price slightly in order to expand the market. If there is a price war even for communication instruments, it is indeed a bit wrong.

Of course, these are not the main reasons (including the current low node limit). The fundamental reason why Xia Duo does not go to the elves to sell third-generation communication instruments is actually because he is worried that the elves will realize the huge potential of the platform and immediately follow up.

Although Xia Duo often said that the elven countries have declined, in fact those countries still have a very profound heritage, and it is not unusual for old trees to sprout new ones.

Especially after the establishment of the Northland Alliance, there have been frequent exchanges between countries, and countries such as Comanso and Yeerlan have really shown signs of sprouting.

The weakest time for a platform is when it is just born. Once it attracts a large number of users, even if competing products appear by then, it will hardly be a threat again.

Therefore, Xia Duo hopes to spend this period of dormancy as smoothly as possible. He will wait until the upper limit of the communication mystery lock node exceeds one million. By then, even if he spends money, he will smash the third-generation communication magic weapon into the countries in the north.

It’s not time to burn money yet!

Thinking of this, Xia Duo looked at this week's income of more than 10 million. In fact, it was just that. In the future, it might not be enough to cover a week's promotion expenses!

But this ten million cannot be extended, which makes him even more focused on the next accumulation.
