Chapter 67 [VIP]
Of course, this problem is easy to solve. We need to repeatedly persuade and introduce middlemen who are reselling supplies from Taoyuan Base. It's easy to deal with, but also difficult. In short, it all depends on the middlemen's eloquence.
"The boss is becoming more and more amazing," someone exclaimed. "Anyone would envy such extraordinary abilities."
The others nodded, all saying the same thing.
They all praised the magic of the bright candles, just like every time the Cat Construction Team appeared, there were always many people squatting not far away and watching intently.
Almost everyone in Taoyuan Base is a cat lover. However, post-apocalyptic cats are almost all soul-eating cats, capable of sitting on and killing many people. Therefore, no one dares to pet a cat casually.
After these two trips, not only the people in Taoyuan Base, but also few people in the world have ever seen a normal cat.
Of course, the cats in the Cat Construction Team are not normal cats either. Normal here refers to their size.
The cats in the Cat Construction Team are different. Each of them is sleek and shiny, and is the dream cat in people's hearts.
Even the giant panda mother and baby, Big Cat, are running rampant at the Taoyuan base. No one cares about them at all. They even feed Big Cat and Baby Cat when they don't have enough food of their own.
I've gotten off topic. Anyway, everyone in Taoyuan Base knows about the amazing abilities of Boss Mingzhu. It's now spreading to other bases. Many people in other bases now know of Taoyuan Base's existence.
Today, the Taoyuan base has truly become a paradise in the minds of many people.
"When 1,000 copies of the ice storage room blueprints come out, I'll buy 10 and sell them."
"Only 10 copies? There should be at least 100 copies."
"I don't know what the price is. If it's really expensive, I can probably only afford one."
"The price is definitely high. It seems the boss is taking a commission basis. It seems like he gets 1% for every unit sold."
"One percent? That seems pretty good. If I sell one million Starlight Coins, I can get 10,000 Starlight Coins. Prices are so low in our base, 10,000 Starlight Coins will last me a long time."
"Can it be sold for 1 million Starlight Coins?"
"Why not?"
"But Starlight Coins are not circulated outside."
“…”
Everyone who was discussing heatedly suddenly fell silent.
Yes!
The method adopted outside is barter, and there is no currency such as Starlight Coin. Starlight Coin is only circulated in Taoyuan Base.
"Well, anyway, I'll wait for the boss to set the price."
Amidst the commotion, Mingzhu had already returned to his residence and copied hundreds of the Ice Room blueprints. Mingzhu had spent one million Starlight Coins on them. Copying one Ice Room blueprint cost 10,000 Starlight Coins.
As mentioned before, for Mingzhu, the cost is not 1 million Starlight Coins, but 1 million + 10,000 Starlight Coins.
"The price is 880,000 Starlight Coins...184, do you think it's a bargain, or a bargain?"
184: "......"
"What does the host think?" 184 said. "The orthodox thinks the host has the potential to be a ruthless boss."
Mingzhu: "There's no money for infrastructure!"
"But Starlight Coins are not popular out there." 184 reminded helplessly.
"I know," Mingzhu replied, "so bring the recycling bin."
"???" 184's eyes widened in disbelief. "Are you planning to use the recycling bins as a channel to transport materials to another dimension?"
"Yes!" Mingzhu admitted decisively. "Is this bad?"
“It’s not bad!”
"That's it. First, buy 100 recycling bins."
The recycling bin is essentially a trash can. It can hold anything. And like a connection to another dimension, whatever's put in it is instantly restored to its original state.
Most residents of Taoyuan Base exchange their recycling bins for Starlight Coins. There are now few poor people in Taoyuan Base, and many have at least a thousand Starlight Coins on their personal ID cards. Some residents have even millions of Starlight Coins on their ID cards.
And the bright candle...
His personal assets have changed quite a lot.
Sometimes it’s hundreds of millions, and sometimes it’s only a few hundred.
There was no way around it. As the owner of Taoyuan Base, Mingzhu actually had no personal assets. His assets were tied to Taoyuan Base.
For example, when collecting supplies, even though the basic materials are cheap, the Starlight Coins consumed every day are in the millions.
Although basic materials are basic, they are indispensable for infrastructure.
Under such circumstances, no one could stop Mingzhu's unscrupulous nature. Soon, 1,000 copies of the ice storage room blueprints were completed.
Mingzhu sold the Starlight Coins to 20 teams at a wholesale price of 880,000. Among them, Zhang Junfang's team had the largest number of ice room blueprints.
After getting the blueprints that day, Zhang Junfang and his team left the Taoyuan base and began to work on the blueprints outside the office.
, but very good.
It's not a lie.
Mingzhu has never had a clear understanding of himself. Tao is famous, and this is not a lie, but the truth.
The popularity of the ice room drawings comes from this.
Fu Chun and Ao Lin's team were both good at speaking. Their trip to City A took about a week, four days to get there and three days to return. As for staying, they only dared to stay one to three days at most.
After four days of driving, Fu Chun, Ao Lin, and their group arrived safely in City A. In fact, if there had been no ground fissure, their journey could have been much faster, potentially shortening the four-day journey to just two.
"Lao Zhao, we'll be here for two days at most, then we'll have to head back," Fu Chun said to his comrade. "The boss said extremely hot weather is coming. For the sake of the survivors in City A, Lao Zhao, you need to consider buying more Ice Chamber blueprints. 880,000 Starlight Coins is a steal."
The man called Lao Zhao by Fu Chun was a middle-aged man, about 180 cm tall, with a weathered look and seemed quite taciturn.
Compared to Fu Chun's liveliness, he is a calm and steady elder.
"880,000? Still cheap?" Old Zhao said helplessly, "Starlight Coins aren't circulated in the A City base."
"You can exchange it for resources and crystal cores." Ao Lin, taking Fu Chun's cue, handed a blueprint to Lao Zhao. "It's simple to use. Just decide on a construction site, gather the materials, and then tear up these blueprints. A cat construction team will arrive to help build the ice room."
"100 first-level water crystal cores?"
"Yes, this is the core. It's the core that allows for the continuous production of ice!" Fu Chun asked with a sincere smile. "Are you really not going to get 10 copies of this powerful architectural blueprint?"
Old Zhao: "...Xiao Gao, go get all the high-level crystal cores you've collected."
"Building debris, wood, stone, plastic, and so on can all be exchanged for Starlight Coins," Fu Chun continued. "Since you, Old Zhao, are a regular customer, I'll place two recycling bins at our City A base free of charge to facilitate future purchases. Don't underestimate them; you can exchange Starlight Coins through the recycling bins in the future."
Fu Chunjiang explained in detail the function of the resource recycling bin, and Ao Lin also provided additional explanations.
Anyway, it's a black technology product, so just use it with confidence. Finally, Lao Zhao was given a Taoyuan Base tourist identity, which allows him to use his personal tourist ID card to store Starlight Coins.
