The Invincible Overlord of Heroes
Chapter 510 Strategic Alliance
Emilia has seen some of Xu Lai's things here, but Xu Lai still doesn't know anything about the specialties in the deep sea.
Emilia's space ring has a large capacity.
After the two parties reached an agreement, treasure chests that were only half a person's height were placed in rows in front of Xu Lai.
Wei Yihong, who had already seen these deep-sea treasures, introduced Xu Lai:
"This box is one of the specialties of the deep sea, deep-sea pearls. It is not as rare as a resource, but it is still a good thing with many uses."
Xu Lai smiled and said, "I know about the pearl necklace."
Wei Yihong smiled bitterly and said: "It's not just as simple as a necklace, the pearls in the deep sea are big and round, and they have high medicinal value when ground into powder.
Moreover, pearls from the deep sea are bred with deep sea magic power and can be used as materials for most water spells. The effect is much better than ordinary pearls. "
In front of the Naga delegation, Wei Yihong couldn't go into too much detail.
He has been to that town several times. Most of the people in that town are fishmen and Nagas, and there are not many humans.
But even so, every time he went, he could see several merchants buying these pearls.
As the business person in charge of Qingfeng City and a salesman, Wei Yihong is very sensitive to this kind of thing.
He found opportunities to contact these businessmen, but they had a strong sense of confidentiality and were reluctant to disclose any business secrets to him.
However, Wei Yihong inquired about it and found out that these merchants actually came from the distant Southern Empire.
The Southern Empire is close to the ocean. Logically speaking, materials in the ocean are not scarce.
But they are willing to come all the way from the Southern Empire, even if they go through the teleportation array, it will cost a lot of money.
What supported them in doing so must be huge benefits, so Wei Yihong also paid attention to it early.
Xu Lai was not stupid. He indicated that he understood Wei Yihong's hint and looked at the other products brought by Naga.
In the first transaction with Qingfeng City, the Nagas were very sincere and brought good things.
They are also eager to introduce other powerful traders. Those merchants who go to Naga Town can keep secrets uniformly, and of course can squeeze prices uniformly.
Unfortunately, apart from these merchants, these Nagas have no other channels through which they can trade.
If they have been deceived by these businessmen, forget about not knowing the market conditions.
But Emilia, who has been to the tower, knows very well how valuable deep-sea pearls, deep-sea corals, and rare resource deposits on the seabed are.
The second box is a big box full, but there is only one top-quality deep-sea coral.
The third and fourth boxes are full of white crystals.
Different from the common red crystals on the market, this white crystal is cylindrical, and the shape and size of each crystal are consistent, without any trace of artificial cutting.
Xu Lai picked up these white transparent crystals, and bursts of magic power penetrated into Xu Lai's body.
His mana was full, so the flowing mana failed to penetrate Xu Lai's body.
"This is it?" Xu Lai asked doubtfully.
“This is also a specialty of our deep sea, it is a mana crystal bred from deep jellyfish.
Each of this standard unit of mana crystals can help restore 100 mana points within an hour.
The most important thing is that even if the mana in this mana crystal is used up, it can still be reversely charged.
However, there will be additional losses when recharging. It usually consumes 2 mana points and can be recharged by 1 point.
In addition, it has another function, which I only learned after going to the tower.
This mana crystal can also be used to create golems, providing the golem with the energy to cast spells and move around.
After refining and upgrading, it can also have a higher energy density and can even be used to make some special magic potions and alchemical potions. "
Emilia took the initiative to introduce Xu Lai.
"A powerful alchemy bomb requires the addition of mana crystal powder." Wei Yihong added.
After finally coaxing these Nagas to Qingfeng City, Wei Yihong didn't want this business to be his last.
These Nagas were fed up with the exploitation of other businessmen, so they decided to go out and find new partners.
Xu Lai smiled and said nothing. He knew that this kind of mana crystal could be very useful. The problem was that he did not shop often. He had no idea how much this thing was worth.
Therefore, he had no intention of negotiating the price himself.
In other boxes, there are also various deep-sea specialties, such as heavy iron, which is difficult to collect on land but is very common on the seabed.
The last box was actually full of gold, which was just unprocessed gold ore mixed with iron, silver, soil and other materials.
There is no way to make fire at the bottom of the sea, and it is difficult for Naga to refine these gold mines on their own.
This kind of gold ore cannot be used directly, because no one knows how much gold is contained in a gold ore without refining them.
This is also the original intention of Nagas to cooperate with humans to build a town where Nagas, fishmen and humans live together.
However, a small town cannot recruit many blacksmiths and cannot build many blacksmith shops.
Compared to the huge gold mine output, one or two blacksmith shops in a small town alone cannot develop many gold coins.
"I have seen all the goods. I am very satisfied with your deep-sea specialties, and I very much hope to facilitate this and countless future transactions.
To achieve this goal, we must achieve mutual benefit and reciprocity, so that it can last long.
What I need is not this short-term transaction, so if you have any needs of your own, I hope to satisfy you as much as possible. "
After Xu Lai finished, Emilia first bent down slightly, then bowed towards Xu Lai and said:
"This is exactly what we need. On behalf of the people of the Deep Sea Tribe, I would like to express my gratitude to you.
If possible, we would like to customize some equipment suitable for use by our Naga. We are really not very good at forging.
Of course, the only things we need to customize are armors and weapons that are universal.
Then, we also need a large amount of gold coins, as well as two rare resources, crystal and mercury. "
Xu Lai thought for a while and said: "As for conventional weapons, I can provide them in large quantities here, and I can give priority to meeting the needs of your Naga tribe.
In terms of customized armor, although I am also actively training blacksmiths, after all, the time is still short, and I also have my own needs.
Therefore, I can only give you 100 pieces of customized armor a month for the time being.
However, you should be able to use general-purpose armor, such as shields, helmets, large armors, cloaks, gloves, etc. directly.
In this regard, I can also give priority to meeting your needs.
Crystals and gold coins are probably not a problem. The key is mercury, which may not be available in a short time. "
Xu Lai does have a mercury mine, but it has not yet been mined. The mercury he currently has can only meet the needs of Holy Dragon Xiaolan. He also needs to buy it through the market, which may not be enough to satisfy Naga.
Emilia was not an unreasonable person, she smiled and said:
"It's okay to have crystals. To be honest, we have a lot of people who are unable to advance due to lack of rare resources."
Xu Lai said with a smile: "Although our crystal mine in Qingfeng City is a rich mine, its output is not high.
But fortunately, I have a lot of reserves before. It won't be a big problem to move a few hundred units of crystals to you. "
"What about your intended price? If the price is right, I hope we can reach a long-term strategic cooperation."
Xu Lai pondered for a while and then said: "The market price of one unit of crystal is around 200 gold coins, but the demand is now very high, and the market price in Qingfeng City has reached between 220 and 230."
Emilia agreed with this price, and she said: "Well, since it is a strategic cooperation, we cannot let our allies suffer.
Moreover, the demand of our deep-sea tribe is relatively high, and it will occupy hundreds of units at a time. We will pay 250 gold coins per unit to purchase it. Do you think it is okay? "
This price is certainly affordable for Xu Lai.
This means that Xu Lai can earn 125,000 gold by selling 500 units of crystals at a time.
But the people who were willing to give this price were obviously aiming for long-term cooperation. They would rather suffer losses themselves and let Xu Lai earn something else. Otherwise, why would they sell the crystal to them.
However, Xu Lai thinks that such a business may not last long.
Now that demand is relatively high, people are naturally willing to pay a premium.
But in the Deep Sea Tribe, how many Nagas are waiting to advance? This demand is long-term, not one-time.
When the other party's demand drops in the future, he won't be able to sell many crystals at a time, and it will make people think that Xu Lai has made a lot of money for nothing.
"No, I don't agree with this price."
Hearing this, Emilia's expression changed slightly, but she could still accept it, because it was a seller's market now.
"Then Mr. Xu Lai, how much do you think it should be?"
Xu Lai smiled slightly and said: "Since you want to form a strategic alliance with us, there is no reason to just let your allies suffer.
The normal market price of crystal is 200 gold, so I will only sell it to you for 200 gold.
We have to sign an agreement, so we don’t need to care too much about price fluctuations in the market.
No matter whether the crystal price rises or falls in the future, we will all trade at 200 gold per unit. If it rises, you will make a profit. If it falls, you will have to give me a guarantee. "
Emilia breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Even if it drops in the future, our demand will also drop. No matter how you say it, we will take advantage.
Here, on behalf of the Deep Sea Tribe, I would like to thank you for your generosity, Mr. Xu Lai. "
Xu Lai waved his hand and said: "We in Qingfeng City have never sold mana crystals, deep sea pearls, etc.
Therefore, we still don’t know what the price is on the market.
In this regard, please make your request first. If it is suitable, we can accept it. "
Emilia rubbed her head, glanced at Xu Lai, and said in a deep voice:
“We are very grateful for your trust, and since you say so, we are not afraid of embarrassment.
Let me put it bluntly, our mana crystals, deep-sea pearls and other specialties are collected by caravans in the town.
The price they offered was unacceptable to us.
For 1 unit of mana crystal, they are only willing to give 5 gold coins, which is equivalent to 20 mana points in exchange for 1 gold coin.
In the tower, the instant recovery type of mana potion requires at least 1 to 2 gold coins for every point of mana. The more you return, the higher the price.
Although our mana crystal does not recover instantly, it is also extremely fast.
And this is just the basic type, we also have more powerful mana crystals.
The most important thing is that our mana crystals are not disposable items and can still be recharged after use. "
Speaking of this, Emilia paused and looked at Xu Lai, obviously waiting for Xu Lai to give a reasonable offer based on her description.
Xu Lai nodded, but he did not give an answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Emilia and said:
"Amy, can I talk to my commerce minister alone?
You also know that I very much hope to achieve long-term cooperation with you, so in terms of price, I need to be more cautious and find a price that satisfies both of us. "
As early as when Xu Lai promised to help her find a teacher unconditionally, the relationship between them reached a new level. Emilia's name was too long, and the other party had already asked Xu Lai to call her Amy.
"This is as it should be. We can see your sincerity from your caution."
Long before Wei Yihong returned, Xu Lai had communicated with him, but this communication obviously could not specify the price of each item of goods.
After having people arrange tea for the Naga messengers, Xu Lai took Wei Yihong away and discussed the specific price in another small room.
Wei Yihong had done some statistics and found that there were many mages and alchemists on the other side of the tower.
Correspondingly, the demand for alchemical potions such as mana potions is very high, but the output is also higher, and the price is lower.
On the empire side, there are also many mages. The key is that there are also a large number of priests. Priests are good at making life potions. Most of the mana potions are imported from the tower.
Therefore, the mana recovery products here, whether they are instant recovery or slow recovery, or even equipment with recovery effects, are much more expensive.
On the empire's side, life potions are relatively cheap. Deep-sea pearls and corals are good materials for making life potions.
Of course, there is no need to overprice these materials.
Because these materials can not only make life potions, but can also be used to make beauty and skin care products.
These things are all huge profits, otherwise the businessmen in the south would not come all the way to do business.
Even if Xu Lai recycles everything according to the price at the tower, he can still make a fortune by selling it on, and it can also enrich Qingfeng City's properties, which is a very cost-effective deal.
After discussing with Wei Yihong, Xu Lai had a sufficient understanding of the current market.
After returning to the reception room again, the progress of both parties can be greatly improved.
Especially when Xu Lai expressed his willingness to purchase the tower at the price, even Emilia was shocked.
Emilia stammered to Xu Lai: "Your Excellency Xu Lai, what I just said may not be very clear. What I just said is the selling price of finished products in the store.
After you buy these materials, you have to make them again. The price is really inappropriate. "
