Chapter 517: Chapter 546: Act Cute when things don’t go your way
Translator: 549690339
In the blueprint that Isabelle designed for Pu Yunchuan, once the station was opened, their forces would have the largest temporary market, and they could earn a large number of player points for quests through replenishment.
And because of the transportation costs, it was generally impossible for ordinary players to compete with them in Gondolin, unless they used their technological advantages to create some special products. But that was a small market after all!
However, Isabelle would definitely not let little cabbage and the others in.
The main reason was that little cabbage was too far ahead. The food products that were higher than all the players’levels and the huge amount of logistics could completely offset the transportation costs.
Isabelle looked at little cabbage and shook her head slowly. She could accept any conditions, but not this. Even if she went to the unscrupulous Lord to borrow money to buy food.., she would not create the biggest competitor for herself in the future just because of the small profits in front of her.
Little cabbage seemed to have expected this. Alice had already calculated the other party’s attitude. Although she was confused when she left, the other party had written down the steps of the negotiation for her in the form of a silk purse.

Hearing this, Isabelle still shook her head. Free sounded tempting, but it was actually the same. It was just adding some weight, and this weight was nothing compared to the benefits in the future...
She directly said, “We are all familiar with each other, so there’s no need to waste time. Just tell me the bottom line Alice set for you...”
Bai Cai could not help but smile awkwardly. In fact, Alice had already told her the real transaction details in her letter. She just wanted to see if she could do it better, but obviously... She was indeed not a character who could scare people...
“We only want a part of the market, like food, medicine, accommodation, and even some supplies for daily necessities. We can not touch any of them. How about we only touch weapons and defensive equipment?”
Weapons and defensive equipment?
Hearing this, Isabelle pondered for a moment and instantly understood what Alice was thinking. However, even if it was just weapons and defensive equipment, this market was still very large. When players came to participate in quests, they would most likely bring some subordinates with them, after all, the energy of the map of the Black Goat was not only useful to players. As long as one had some genetic technology, the soldiers under the players’hands would also be useful. Ran Xiaojuan, who was in her own faction, had already told her this point, even if the other players did not choose the Zu’an civilization, as long as there was genetic technology in the civilization technology tree, they could more or less use it.
If that was the case, the wear and tear on the weapons would be very large. Isabelle had already tested it on the way to Gondolin with Pu Yunchuan. After the evolution of those mutated creatures and plants, their shells were much stronger than before, the wear and tear on the weapons during a fight was much more exaggerated than when fighting with the orcs. Moreover, the mutated energy seemed to have a certain effect on the iron itself, causing the equipment to be consumed even more.
If the players came with their underlings, they would naturally not teleport frequently to increase the cost. Then, the consumption of food supplies and equipment would be huge. Not to mention buying weapons, there would be a huge profit in repairing weapons... ...
If it was possible, Isabelle also did not want to let go of this market... ... But...
Although the civilization chosen by Pu Yunchuan’s faction could maximize the use of the map of the Black Goat, it was a weakness when it came to weapon evolution!
Every loss has its gain. A large amount of energy was spent on the biological genes, so in terms of external weapons, it naturally could not be compared to other civilizations. Even if they had the geographical advantage.., in the future competition, it would be very difficult for them to gain an advantage over other players.
One had to admit that their ancestor had really studied them to death. The market they wanted was like chicken ribs to them. It would be a pity if they were tasteless and abandoned. It would be the best for them to use it as a trade...
Little cabbage saw that the other party did not reject immediately and immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Alice had repeatedly emphasized in the letter that this market had to be taken down. She was afraid that the other party would be so stubborn that he would not even discuss it...
Isabelle looked at the other party and said faintly, “This market is very big. What Price Do you plan to pay? Just some free food won’t do!”
She understood in her heart that although this market was of little value to them, it was completely different for little cabbage and the other factions!
Currently, the weapons and equipment of the little cabbage faction were completely ahead of the market. In the main base, other than the panda man who had mastered runic technology and could only fight a handful of high-quality items a month.., almost no one could surpass the cabbage patch faction in this aspect in a short period of time. Once the players realized the benefits of forging weapons, their market would rapidly expand, the reason why there were still no players buying their weapons in large numbers was because word of mouth had yet to spread. After all, there were very few players in the base who could come into contact with combat right now.
However, once the missions in the mutated zone began to be released in large numbers, the players would quickly realize the benefits of those high-quality weapons in the cabbages. At that time, once word of mouth spread, the market would not only refer to Gondorin alone, once the brand was released, it would probably sell like hot cakes in the base in the future!
And their Gondorin was just a springboard for them... ...
It had to be said that her ancestor was not only a military genius, she was also extremely talented in business strategy. Having such an elder was still a little stressful for her...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLittle cabbage looked at her and could not help but feel a headache. This woman was just as Alice had said, very shrewd... ...
Indeed, just as the other party had expected, Alice indeed wanted to use Gondorin as a temporary base to create her own brand of weapons and equipment, thus further expanding the market!
The advantage of their wood elf civilization was the cultivation of elemental elves. Apart from the cultivation of food crops and magical beasts, weapons and equipment were also a big part of it. Of course, long-range firearms definitely could not compare to the mechanical civilization. However, in the field of cold weapons, they had a great advantage. High-quality runic equipment equipped with their own unique breathing technique, as long as they operated well, they could monopolize the market for a long time in the future...
Looking at Isabelle’s blue eyes, little cabbage had a feeling that he was completely seen through. He did not know how to continue the conversation, so he quietly took out the last brocade pouch that Alice left behind...
After quietly opening the brocade pouch, little cabbage was stunned for a moment. His entire face suddenly twitched. On the note was written: “When in doubt, act cute...”.
What the... ? ... What kind of stupid idea is this? I am the Lord of a region, the chief of the little cabbage tribe. You Want Me to act cute?
After hesitating for almost a second, little cabbage showed a puppy-like expression without hesitation. “We have already provided food for free. What else do you want?”
As a flower spirit, she had a strong affinity with natural creatures. The moment little cabbage showed this expression, Isabelle was stunned. She actually felt a trace of unbearable feeling in her heart, then, she quickly shook her head and thought to herself, what’s going on?
Suppressing the inexplicable pity in her heart, Isabelle gritted her teeth and said, “You’re also going to provide us with free high-quality equipment! !”
“Ah?”Little cabbage immediately pouted and lay on the ground. She simply rolled on the ground and said, “How can you bully people like this?”
This appearance, coupled with the flower spirit’s appearance and characteristics, really made her look like a cute pet that was acting cute. Isabelle suddenly had the illusion that she had really bullied her... ...
Although she had been through a lot, she had never encountered such a pattern before. She actually started to panic for some reason... ...
