Douluo ice demon Yuhao

Mingdou Academy, which has attracted the attention of the whole continent, is finally about to open its doors.

After more than half a year of construction, this academy, which has been designed to compete with the mainland's top universities from the beginning, has invested countless resources of the Sun and Moon Empire, and all configurations are of the highest standards.

The Ming Dou City next to it is also unprecedented in scale. Judging from the planning map, it will be a city that will not be inferior to Ming Dou in the future.

Now many chambers of commerce under the command of big forces have settled in. Under their leadership, many small and medium-sized chambers of commerce have also come one after another, followed by a large number of people.

With the establishment of Ming Dou City, the communication between the borders of the three empires has become more convenient, and many civilians from villages and towns near the border between Xingluo and Tianhun have moved here.

The reason is very simple, you can make money by visiting Mingdou City.

Backed by the Sun and Moon Empire, relying on the highly profitable soul-guiding device and rare metal industries, it was passed down from level to level. Even if you did some dirty work for those people, farming and mining, your income would be much higher than before.

With official support, commerce, and people, Ming Dou City is now extremely lively, and several large markets have been formed in the city.

Who would have thought that less than a year ago, this place was just an almost uninhabited mountain range?

Huo Yuhao's requirements for Ming Doucheng are very simple, everything must be met.

Obviously, his management level is much better than that of Xu Tianran's family. The most direct manifestation is that there will never be any black market or underground forces in Ming Dou City.

He doesn't even need to clean this up personally, because the entire business territory of Ming Dou City has been divided up by all the major forces.

It is estimated that if all the largest underground forces in each country were put together, they could barely compete with the affiliated sects of the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect.

Under the encirclement and suppression of these giant forces, there is no soil for the survival of evil forces in the entire Ming Dou City.

In other words, these big forces and the royal families of the Three Kingdoms are the biggest gangs.

The senior officials of these big forces could see that both Mingdou City and Mingdou Academy were challenging Shrek, and there was destined to be a war without smoke.

Since the construction of Ming Dou City, the Shrek Chamber of Commerce has visited them many times and negotiated more cooperation on the basis of the original. Everything they have done is to consolidate their position.

But as long as there are benefits, they don't care who they cooperate with. Shrek's name alone is not enough for them to give up another piece of the big cake.

Not long after the Sun and Moon Empire allowed the export of soul tools and rare metals, these chambers of commerce have already made a lot of money.

For soul masters and soul tools of the same level, those from the Sun and Moon Empire are often stronger than those from other countries.

In the past, due to export restrictions, many soul tools were not that high-level and not that effective. Even if they were only level four or five, they could only be seen in auction houses outside the Sun and Moon Empire, and they were expensive.

But now, more and more soul tools are flowing into Xingluo and Tianhun. They can be bought in some big markets without going to auction houses anymore, and the price is much cheaper than before.

In Xingluo and Tianhun Empire, there is now a trend that when using soul guides, you must use those exported by Sun and Moon, as a way of showing off.

This trend has gradually spread to the Dou Ling Empire, but the distance is far away, and the number of soul guidance devices resold to the Dou Ling Empire is not large, and the price is increased.

The Dou Ling Empire, which is far away from the Three Kingdoms, smells something bad about the Tianhun Three Kingdoms, whose cooperation is in full swing.

I don’t know since when, the term “Three Kingdoms” that people often talk about has gradually changed the Dou Ling Empire to the Sun and Moon Empire.

The huge Dou Ling Empire seemed to be suddenly isolated.

Why does this happen?

Weren't they originally an alliance against the invasion of the Sun and Moon Empire?

It's a pity that no one seems to care about the feelings of Dou Ling Empire.

Not only Xingluo and Tianhun were benefited from the trade, but the sun and moon also benefited a lot.

In fact, in the entire soul guidance device market of the Sun and Moon Empire, the vast majority of the huge number of middle and low-level soul guidance devices do not come from big forces such as Mingdetang, but from small private workshops.

These small workshops are like blacksmith shops in rural areas. A few low-level soul masters or even one soul master can run them together.

They accept commissions to make soul guidance devices, and the level is usually not high, but the number can be hundreds of thousands, or even millions.

The masters of Mingdetang will not condescend and do not have the extra energy to make these toys, so the gap in this market will naturally be filled.

These small workshops soon overwhelmed Mingdetang in number and became the main export force.

These low-level soul engineers were overjoyed. As long as the same soul guidance device was exported to Xingluo and Tianhun, the price would be several times higher than in Sun and Moon.

In the past, there were export restrictions. Small workshops could not receive orders from foreign countries, and official exports had to pay a large tax.

And if it is smuggled secretly, most of the profits will be taken away by the underground forces involved in smuggling, and there may be fines, so the gain outweighs the loss.

Now, as long as it is resold through the foreign chamber of commerce in Ming Dou City, the soul guide can be exported easily, and the handling fee is much lower.

For a time, the soul guidance device workshops across the Sun and Moon Empire were full of energy and shipped a steady stream of soul guidance devices to Ming Dou City.

The profits of soul guidance devices are not low, but everyone still covets one thing, and that is Mingdetang's soul guidance devices.

The three words Mingdetang represent high-end and high-quality products. Only Mingdetang has the ability to sell soul tools above level eight, and the prices are sky-high.

But only the Jiubao Glazed Sect has the qualifications to help Mingdetang resell the soul tools.

The other forces don't know what the inside story is, but they are secretly watching, waiting for the opportunity to replace the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect.

The trade in the entire Ming Dou City is running at a high speed, as if everyone has a share of the pie.

The soul masters of Xingluo and Tianhun bought more cheap and practical soul guides, the soul masters of Sun and Moon earned more gold soul coins, and the major chambers of commerce also made money from them.

It seems that everyone benefits, so who suffers?

"Hongchen Chief Assistant, these are the trade data of Yueming Dou City this month, please take a look."

In the cabinet, an official respectfully presented a stack of documents to Jing Hongchen.

Jing Hongchen took it and flipped through it briefly, then nodded casually and said, "It has doubled again compared to last month."

A few months ago, he had no idea that Ming Doucheng had such great trade potential, and was surprised.

The market for mid-level and low-level soul tools is so huge that once export controls are relaxed, the total revenue will even far exceed Mingdetang's income.

After all, how many people are there in the entire Mingde Hall, and how many soul masters are there in the entire Sun Moon Empire.

"It's a pity that for such a big industry, you don't even think about raising the tax rate."

Jing Hongchen looked at Huo Yuhao with some regret.

"I think we can definitely raise the tax rate to at least 30%."

Huo Yuhao chuckled and said nonchalantly: "This is just the crazy expansion period at the beginning of trade. When everyone calms down, it won't be such a crazy situation. It's not a good thing to catch all the water."

He looked into the distance with a smile and sighed.

"Hayek's big hand."

All gifts have prices marked in their fate. For Xing Luo and Tianhun, are these seemingly advantages really a good thing?
