Ye Xiaowen took a deep breath, and after stepping out of the [Three-Body Street Fighter], he realized how big this world was. It seems that he can't be complacent anymore, and he has to follow in the footsteps of the gang leader so that he won't be left behind.

"This friend is from the [Miners' Alliance], right? Can you contact your alliance leader, I have business looking for him, big deal. ”

"Oh good! Hold on... No, you'd better come with me! The player happily threw down a box of ore, beckoned someone else to come and carry it, and took Jiang Zhuo to the largest tavern in Hekou Town and sent him to the third floor, "Wait a minute, our alliance leader will come over immediately." ”

While waiting, Ye Xiaowen found that most of the players in Estuary Town had the emblem of the [Miners Alliance]. They were busy, but they all had smiles on their faces.

"It is not easy to make tens of thousands of players work hard, the leader of the [Miners Alliance]..."Ye Xiaowen's eyes narrowed slightly, but he had his own confidence.

The cloud cover furnace can greatly reduce the time required for calcination. Make a forging table, 24 hours of rotating people without stopping the fire, can consume more than 1,000 ores.

Now that inflation is indicating, a piece of ore is no longer something that can be bought with seven or eight copper coins at the beginning of the game. A piece of iron ore costs 30 copper, copper ore costs 50 copper coins, silver ore costs 1 silver, and a piece of gilt ore costs several gold.

Jiang Zhuo allocated 10 positions to the Purple Fox's tail, and they could consume nearly 60 gold coins of ore raw materials in a day. If you use such a large amount every day, it will be a big business of nearly a million in a month.

Of course, the biggest role of the [Cloud Cover Furnace] is to allow forgers to make breakthroughs and forge high-value equipment. Therefore, this million business is only the order of the last month, and the number of orders will be greatly reduced after that.

However, at that time, the [Miners' Alliance] will have no value in wooing, and whether they can continue to get orders depends on their sincerity.

"I've been waiting for a long time, I don't know what to call Mr.?" The leader ID of the [Miners Alliance] is called [Ye Chasing], Ye Xiaowen smiled slightly, "My name is Jackdaw." ”

Ye Chai's face changed, of course he knew who the jackdaw was, this was the deputy gang leader of the [Lingyun Palace], and it was the enemy he and others had to deal with!

The [Miners' Alliance] numbered more than 10,000 people, and occupied all the northern part of the rich Lead Mountain. Whoever dominates Poyang County will not tolerate their continued existence.

Therefore, when [Juxian Pavilion] was strong before, he sold high-quality materials and high-quality equipment produced by the alliance's forging masters to [Dingding World] at a discount. On the contrary, there are several other forces that do not want to be the overlord of Poyang County, and they are struggling to maintain the balance of Poyang County.

But Jiang Zhuo's appearance made him feel the crisis. Jiang Zhuo's hegemonic route is to rely on NPC resources to smash the original territory of other forces. This made it impossible for Ye Chasing to use the control resources to restrain Jiang Zhuo.

So as soon as Chai Xin found him, he didn't need much persuasion, he agreed to the alliance.

"Jackdaw, what do you want to do? Playing Discord Meter? Ye Chai Ming sat down, and although he spoke politely, he still poured Ye Xiaowen a glass of wine.

"Hehe... Your so-called Poyang Grand Alliance, do you still need us to be separated? Give a little benefit, and it will fall apart. Ye Xiaowen smiled faintly, "To tell you the truth, we have mastered a melting pot similar to the Laozi Mountain Alchemy Platform, and an important member of your alliance has been bought by us with several forging positions in the furnace. ”

"Needless to say, I also said that several of your [Lingyun Palace] hall masters were all bought by me with money, do you believe it?" Ye Chai Ming didn't believe what Ye Xiaowen said at all, and Ye Xiaowen didn't care, "Whatever you think, I did have a big list when I came to you."

The furnace has 18 positions and has the function of reducing the calcination time by 40%. If we had a few of these locations working day and night, we would have to consume at least 50 gold of ore per day. Is this business big? ”

Ye Chai Ming's heart moved, this is indeed a big business, if it can be done... No, Ye Chai's fate suddenly woke up, this was just an expedient measure of [Lingyun Palace]. When they get through the difficulties and dominate Poyang County, or even just the southeast of Poyang County, they will still not let go of the [Miners' Alliance].

No one will let go of such a big interest in the northern part of Lead Mountain.

But just as Ye was thinking about it, Ye Xiaowen stood up and walked to the window on the third floor, "Why don't you come and take a look?" ”

Ye chased the fox suspiciously to the window, and saw that more than a hundred ferries were lined up on the Yushui River, blocking the waterway, he was shocked, turned around and went downstairs and hurried to the wharf of Hekou Town, "What's the matter?" ”

"Alliance leader, the leader of the team is an official named [Youqi Governor Cao]. They said that in the future, transportation by waterway would be subject to a 5% commercial tax. ”

The retribution of his subordinates made Ye Chai's heart sink. The profit of ore is actually very thin, but the quantity is large, and the profit accumulates. After deducting the 5% business tax, and then there is the 2% transaction tax automatically deducted by the system when the transaction is made, then their profits will be almost gone.

It takes a lot of physical strength to kill the mining monsters and open the mines, and after they work hard all day and buy cooking products, it is estimated that there is not much left.

Ye Xiaowen's voice came from behind him, "A few days after the game's open beta, the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out. After the original [Youqi Governor Cao] was killed, he was not reappointed, and the water transport merchant tax could not be collected. Now that this official position has reappeared, the government has the money to recruit soldiers when it has commercial tax revenue.

Everyone takes the waterway to transport bulk commodities, and there are officers and soldiers to protect them, so there is no need to worry about the attack of water thieves. Good news for you..."

"What the hell did you guys do?" Ye Chai Ming gritted his teeth and whispered, Ye Xiaowen did not speak, and pointed to the middle of the more than a hundred ferries lined up on the remaining water.

Ye Chaiming turned around and looked, there was only one player on the boat, and he recognized that it was a female hero with an ID called [Hu Hansan].

"This tax seems to be a bit heavy, I don't know if I will go to the county guard to discuss, whether he is willing to lower it. Or perhaps, because of the lack of manpower in his hands, he couldn't check the ships one by one, so some people took advantage of loopholes to evade taxes... It's all possible... Hey, this official is not easy to be a person. ”

Ye Xiaowen turned around and left with a smile, Ye Chaiming looked at his distant back, his face changed several times, and finally sighed helplessly.

Heavy bulk ores have to be transported by water, and if they are transported by land, the cost is too high. Renting a car is more expensive than renting a boat, and you have to send people to protect you from being robbed. In the end, the price of the ore will be 20% higher than the selling price of the casual players in the market, which will not be able to sell at all.

And by land, how many people can they send to escort them? A thousand, two thousand? Jiang Zhuo brought a few county-level No. 1 masters, and he was able to attack and disturb them and collapse directly. Three thousand, four thousand? Do they still want to make money, do they still have to work?

Under Ye Xiaowen's combination of soft and hard, an hour later, the [Miners' Alliance] bought a Poyang County announcement, announcing in a high-profile manner that the [Miners' Alliance] and the [Lingyun Palace] had reached a strategic alliance. The high-quality ores of the [Miners Alliance] will be sold to the [Lingyun Palace] first.

This is Ye Chai's helplessness to resist, with this announcement, after the [Lingyun Palace] survives the difficulties, if you want to unload the mill and kill the donkey, you must at least pay attention to the impact of reputation.
