Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month

As soon as he finished speaking, Hua Shao waved his hand, a golden map spread out to the dining table in front of him, showing every detail of this pedestrian street like a scroll.

The moment the drawings were spread out, a faint scent of perfume filled the air. The smell was mild and fragrant, but it also made people feel the richness. It was not pungent, but had a natural smell.

Only relatively high-end business districts will use this kind of perfume, which has a special appeal.

Chen Ye has a keen sense of smell. When he smelled this smell, he knew that there was a characteristic influence in it, but it was not mixed with malice. It was just a pure commercial perfume that could increase the favorability of customers.

On the drawings, the various street details of the pedestrian street are outlined layer by layer in painted colors.

It's hard to imagine... that a 2D drawing can actually show all the details of a 3D picture. It's like something that only a highly skilled fourth-level [painter] can do.

Mr. Hua stretched out his finger and pressed on the scroll with three-thirds of force.

Faint ink marks spread out from the paper, circling the location of the corresponding shop.

"These dozen locations are all relatively good areas in the pedestrian street. Of course, if you think about it from a player's point of view, the unit price of these locations should be around 15,000 yuan. However, this city seems to have it. It doesn’t matter if it’s your own value logic.”

"Oh, to be honest, if it weren't for the difficulty in doing business now and the overall strength of the players, these areas would be very popular."

"But unfortunately, the reality is always unsatisfactory. Under the current economic conditions, if there is no excellent craftsmanship and sufficient sources of ingredients, even if a restaurant is opened in a core area, there will still be no success. How many customers?”

"In the past few days, I have seen with my own eyes that there are no less than a dozen restaurants that have closed down and canceled their contracts..."

After a pause, Hua Shao looked at Chen Ye with admiring eyes and continued:

"It is rare for your restaurant to have so many customers in the entire pedestrian street. If you can open more branches, the revenue can be increased a lot."

Chen Ye smiled and did not hide his thoughts:

"I think so too."

"Currently, we plan to open three stores first and start a chain."

"Of course... due to the current limited number of employees, no matter how many stores we open, we may not be able to open them."

Young Master Hua nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what Chen Ye meant. His eyes wandered over the buildings and geographical coordinates on the painted map, as if he was choosing the best location to ensure that the transaction could meet the needs of the other party. For a moment, he rubbed his chin and pressed his finger on the map. A faint ink mark outlined a store in the central business district:

"This is a store of about 20 square meters. It is located in a core location. There has been a lot of customer traffic there recently, and nearby stores have also opened. It will face competition from many players."

"Another relatively remote place... There is a supermarket that has just closed down. It is located on the first floor of the business district. Because there are a large number of closed properties there, this supermarket has been in a state of transfer. There are two It's 100 square meters and has a spacious location, but it's not suitable for living, and no players are currently interested in it. If you need it, this family can transfer it to you."

"Of course, if you want to choose these two places, the value is already more than fifty gold coins."

"But since I have given them all away, I naturally have to collect the number 'three'. Haha, to be honest, I also like this number better, so I can also give away a small shop of ten square meters, which is not large, as a storage There is no problem with the warehouse of ingredients.”

Hua Shao talked about every detail with the attitude of a negotiator.

If you are just listening by the side, you will inexplicably feel that every detail of the other person's words is very reasonable, and you will subconsciously want to agree.

"Ingredients in stock? I have the special props of the Yamakawa Roll, but I don't need it!" Chen Ye smiled secretly and easily overcame the influence of this special feature.

[Negotiator] is related to the [Moon] sequence. Of course, as a first-class profession, it will definitely not be Hua Shao's main profession. It is probably a side job integrated out of his identity needs.

Of course, with Chen Ye's current spiritual power, it would be difficult for this profession to have any impact on him, let alone the other party's negotiation skills. It seems that they are not that perfect yet. It is probably due to the recent integration and absorption of professional characteristics and lack of acting... …

really!

If you want to perfectly display your characteristics, role-playing is also indispensable. This depends on whether you can maximize your career.

If a third-level profession has a role performance of less than 10%, it may be suppressed by a half-step third-level profession... But this gap will only work when the professional level is small, and it exceeds the second-level profession. The gap is simply an absolute numerical crushing.

"The role of [Ferryman] should be to ferry more souls... It seems that in the process of fishing in the spirit world, more ferrying is still needed..."

"[Demon Executioner]... It should be related to executions. Do you want to find that kind of criminal? No... the devil itself is not a good thing. As an executioner, I am afraid that he will continue to create [horror sculptures] to increase the number of people facing him." Structural understanding, in order to play..."

"As for the sequence of 'fate', it is very simple. You only need to continue divination, combine it with yourself, get feedback, add various factors to the system template, analyze it, and pursue a more accurate and in-depth interpretation."

"[Lord]...that's what we are doing now, constantly developing large-scale territories."

Chen Ye's mind wandered and he quickly made a series of analyzes in his mind. Then his eyes fell on the map, and he pondered and analyzed what his "Integrity Restaurant" needed most at the moment.

"The role of a lord requires the accumulation of popularity, so the central business district must not be given up. This prime location has better customer sources and better passenger flow. If it can be developed in this area, there will be this area in the future. Customers in the area, because there are not enough seats, go to other chain stores because of its reputation, which can be regarded as a disguised form of attracting customers."

"Of course, since every inch of land in this prime location is valuable, it is impossible to expect too much real estate from Hua Shao for the value of fifty gold coins alone. The store area is limited and cannot satisfy such a huge customer flow. quantity."

"This requires a larger store as a branch, so that no matter how many customers there are, they can all eat, ensuring that the profit rate can reach the highest limit."

Thinking about it carefully, although the two places Hua Shao circled are not his most ideal real estate, among the few areas with high cost performance and value, they are the best solutions for him. .

After all, most of these shops are ones that other players can't continue to run, and then they can be sold to them.

The better shops were either negotiated by other players in advance, or they signed a more valuable business contract with other aboriginal forces in exchange for higher value items.

What Chen Ye wants now is to temporarily expand the scale of the "Integrity Restaurant". The top priority is to consider its popularity.

It is enough to have a store in the prime area of ​​the central business district.

The area does not need to be too large, the main thing is to build a reputation.

Secondly, that is to maximize the store’s daily revenue and sprint to this month’s list.

Although the location of the closed supermarket that Mr. Hua mentioned is not very good, the space is large enough. As long as it builds its reputation, all that is left is a wave of publicity. There is no need to worry about the low traffic in that area. The source of diners will basically be there by then. It all depends on the traffic attracted by the reputation of the store, rather than the traffic brought by the surrounding area.

As for the ten-square-meter shop that was given as a gift...the location is average, located in a remote alley, the surrounding area is quiet and quiet, and sparsely populated. It would be good to use it as a special space for divination consultation at that time...

Thinking of this, Chen Ye nodded slightly and said:

"The properties are in a good location and I can accept the deal."

"Then...pass!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there seemed to be an invisible gaze, projected from an infinitely high area, injecting this transaction.

Suddenly, Chen Ye had the intuition that he was at the intersection of destiny, and felt that every information point he spoke next might determine his own different destiny.

"Sure enough... there is indeed some kind of existence behind this city of destiny, which can monitor every transaction of equal value. If the principles are violated, it may bring about various negative factors, and may even be eliminated step by step. Leading to death?”

This feeling of infinite gaze made Chen Ye feel his own insignificance. He didn't even dare to peek at the source of the gaze. It was just because his spiritual power had increased and he had absorbed the professional characteristics of [Destiny], so , only then can one notice the gaze coming from above the entire city, as if looking down and controlling everything.

Subconscious sparks seemed to flash out of the forum automatically under the guidance of unconsciousness, information about other players not following equivalent exchanges and thus falling into strange stories or encountering unexpected events...

Although the sources of these information are not so reliable, they may be stories spun by other players, and the details may not be as simple as what the forum tells, but more complicated...

But since the subconscious mind flashes this information, it means that this transaction must follow the rules of equivalence.

It may involve deeper secrets, which will bring about a series of chain effects. Therefore, the existence behind this city has cast an invisible gaze to monitor whether this transaction is fair enough and follows the principle of equivalent exchange. in principle.

"If the details I mentioned can match every point of the thugs' transaction, then every detail involved in this transaction worth tens of millions of dollars, and the value of the sale of fifty gold coins, is It is absolutely value-preserving, the key depends on how I explain it..."

Chen Ye frowned slightly, thinking about how to convey this huge information to Mr. Hua.

The simplest way is to play music and send these ideas to Hua Shao's brain through spiritual power, just like sending files. The process takes the least time and is the most labor-saving.

But Mr. Hua was defeated by the [All Living Beings Concert] last month and the funeral music he played...

Even if you don’t use the suona, because during the [All Living Beings Concert], there was a section where Chen Ye used a “white flute” to play, mixed with the magic sound electric guitar technique, so no matter what instrument he uses, he will definitely be able to play it. Let Hua Shao discover the problem.

Moreover, he is now tightly wearing the jade pendant that isolates spiritual influence around his neck, and he never leaves his body. Even if he plays the instrument rashly, it will not affect his consciousness. On the contrary, it may expose his identity. Then this business will be difficult. If it collapses, I may not be able to survive in the pedestrian street in the future...

If it is described verbally, there will be too much detailed information, and if language is used to transmit information, there will always be deviations. The expresser and the listener may not be able to agree on the concepts, and it is easy for there to be differences in understanding. This This will make this equivalent exchange less stable.

"Is there any better way..." Chen Ye gently tapped the armrest at the end of the long table, and suddenly remembered that this "Integrity Restaurant", after integrating the characteristics of [Parasite Lord], became [Soul Domain] .

The essence of the so-called [Soul Realm] is that there is a part of the space in this area that can overlap with the spirit world and can be controlled by oneself.

This also means that Chen Ye can project his own spiritual power into the [Soul Realm] to play the picture he wants to see for the other party, thereby achieving the same effect as playing the suona.

But this is a completely different method, which will not arouse the other party's association, and can even dispel the suspicion that his true identity is Chen Ye.

"If you want to connect the [soul realm] with your own spiritual power, you can use these 'soul chains'..."

As Chen Ye's mind settled and he summoned the "Soul Chain", the temperature of the store suddenly dropped. The surrounding tables, chairs, and the outline of various items became illusory, as if there was a hazy mist, blocking the line of sight. Even the pale flame burning in the niche dimmed, just like the residual visual halo left by the high beam on the dark road slanting into the corner of the eye. It was so unreal, so dreamy.

Hua Shao felt this change, and felt a little uneasy subconsciously. His pupils shrank slightly, and he realized that he was under the influence of a rarer and more difficult to understand characteristic.

With this, we can be sure that the owner of this store definitely has extraordinary abilities!

Immediately afterwards...

The silhouettes of everything around him dispersed like a tide in the changes of illusory light and shadow.

A new projection, like a 4D movie, appears in this space, outlining the outline of the underground world.

Various details about the thugs were discussed in dark places such as the underground black market and the dark thorn garden.

now.

Mr. Hua's expression was more focused than ever before...
