Samsara finally agreed to the twenty million amount, but Samsara's manager had a request. The twenty million couldn't be paid all at once. The first five million would be paid out and the second fifteen million would be paid out over 24 months.
Although the amount didn't seem to change, there were still many ways to do it. Ye Xiu obviously had to fight for it. However, since the amount had already been set, both sides were more relaxed. They would give in a bit and then give in a bit. In the end, Ye Xiu won over the eight million upfront and then the twelve million after 12 months.
After discussing this, Ye Xiu suddenly had an idea. He suddenly suggested that a portion of the money could be used to pay for the materials in the game. Samsara's manager's eyes lit up. But when Ye Xiu pointed out the details, Samsara's manager immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum.
What a joke. If the materials were from normal dungeons, then they could actually discuss it. However, Ye Xiu's suggestion was practically all rare items that could only be dropped from wild bosses. If these materials could be sold, then Samsara could spend another twenty million to buy them. If they wanted to sell these materials, then Samsara would have to give up on winning the championships. With Samsara's current momentum and ambition, how could that be possible?
As a result, after hearing Ye Xiu's suggestion, Samsara's manager didn't even think about it and directly refused. But then, he tried to sell the dungeon materials to Ye Xiu. In the end, Ye Xiu immediately retaliated. Just like how Samsara's manager shook his head like a rattle-drum.
There was nothing he could do. One was a manager, the other was a God. Who could compare? The two of them knew the difference between dungeon materials and wild dungeon materials. One was that if you had the money, you could always get it. The other was that even if you had the money, you couldn't buy it. This negotiation wasn't like before, when Ye Xiu had the materials that Samsara urgently needed and had absolute control over the negotiations. Now that the big issues had been settled, these small details wouldn't cause them to fall out with each other. As a result, they would often argue endlessly. Fortunately, Samsara didn't have the time to do so. They had to use it immediately after buying it, so they could strengthen themselves in the playoffs. There were only a few days left. The manager didn't dare to waste time because of the details.
However, after observing Ye Xiu's expression, the manager felt that although Ye Xiu shook his head like a rattle drum when he refused to trade the dungeon materials, he didn't seem too determined. Therefore, he tried to persuade them again. Then, both sides struggled for a while about how to pay for the materials. Of course, they couldn't go according to the market price. Ye Xiu kept pushing the price down, while Samsara's manager kept pushing the price up. He told Samsara about Samsara's difficulties, as if his entire team would go begging on the streets after this deal with Ye Xiu.
How could Ye Xiu believe him? With a heart of stone, he continued to argue with him. From time to time, he would remind the manager that he was very busy and that he had no time. Otherwise, he could suddenly ask about the inventory of Tyranny, Blue Rain, Micrograss, and so on. Would it be more appropriate to use that as a hint?
When Samsara's manager heard this, he felt that this guy was truly shameless! Both sides had already agreed to the deal. They just hadn't signed the contract yet. He was actually going to go back on his word! And it was in front of them too! How embarrassing would that be?
However, Samsara's manager still had a certain amount of confidence in the materials trade. Even though Ye Xiu was always using Samsara's current needs to pressure them, Samsara's manager knew that Ye Xiu had his own needs too. He was building a team from scratch, so he definitely had a need for materials. He couldn't just buy some in-game Orange and Purple equipment and charge into the pro scene, right? Wild Boss materials couldn't be sold, but dungeon materials would be used quite a bit when researching self-made equipment. Even though he had the money to buy these materials, Samsara's manager believed that as long as he offered a slightly lower price than the market price, the other side would definitely be tempted.
Reality proved that Samsara's manager's judgement was very accurate. In the end, after arguing for a while, Ye Xiu didn't go all out against Samsara. In reality, he knew that if he traded for these materials, he would definitely be able to save a lot of money compared to the market price. As for whether the value of the materials would increase or decrease in value in the future, that didn't matter to Ye Xiu. He wasn't a studio that sold materials to make money. He was buying these materials because he needed them urgently. He didn't care about the market price.
In the end, Ye Xiu and Samsara's manager agreed on a 2 million dollar deal for dungeon materials. As for the specific materials, they would naturally be listed in the contract. For this reason, Ye Xiu specially called back and had Wei Chen send him a copy of his requirements, whether it was for his Death's Hand or any other self-made equipment that he might be involved in.
In the information that Wei Chen sent over, there were a few wild boss materials that Ye Xiu could only regretfully erase. Unfortunately, Samsara wouldn't budge on these.
As for the dungeon materials, 2 million wasn't a small amount. In the end, Ye Xiu spent another half a day to finalize the requirements. He wasn't able to figure out the exact amount, but Ye Xiu estimated that he had a complete list of materials. After the list was given to Samsara's manager, the other side had a specialized staff member waiting for him. According to Samsara's manager's request, the staff member evaluated the materials. In the end, the change was removed. In fact, the two million was only confirmed at this time.
Afterwards, Samsara's manager didn't even bat an eyelid at such a large amount of materials. Ye Xiu secretly sighed in admiration. Samsara really hid their strength well. It seemed like this season's explosive performance was due to their accumulation of resources.
The other details took another half a day to finalize. That night, both sides signed their names on the contract. Afterwards, Samsara arranged for the transfer of funds. Ye Xiu relaxed. He downloaded a broken document from his mailbox and threw it over to Samsara.
"Tsk tsk tsk … …" Samsara's manager personally inspected the document. He first checked to see if the quest in the document was the same as the one that Ye Xiu had given him. Samsara's manager couldn't help but sigh in admiration when he saw that the document had actually cost 20 million.
After he finished inspecting the document, a specialized staff member checked Ye Xiu's data against the quest details. This wasn't easy work, but it was necessary. The contract had already stipulated that if the final guide didn't match the data provided, Samsara had the right to change the payment.
Just because of this, Ye Xiu couldn't help but be nervous when he inspected the document. If Concealed Light was careless and made a mistake in the numbers, it would be troublesome. Fortunately, when he thought about how serious Concealed Light was, Ye Xiu was able to remain calm.
The inspection continued throughout the night. Samsara's manager lived up to his reputation as a gamer. Like Ye Xiu, he didn't feel pressured at all. He just kept an eye on the document.
Finally, at 4: 37 in the morning, the data was verified. There were no mistakes. Samsara's manager once again shook hands with Ye Xiu. The largest transaction in Glory history had finally been completed. Unfortunately, this transaction wouldn't be made public. As for this guide, from now on, Samsara would have full control over it. Even if Ye Xiu wanted to use it, he would need Samsara's permission. Of course, Ye Xiu had also guaranteed that he wouldn't limit the strength of his team. This was his bottom line. Samsara clearly understood this, so they weren't too harsh on him. It was just that it was impossible for Ye Xiu and the others to make a profit out of it.
"I've been busy all day. I'm tired. I'm going to rest for a bit. I'll come back at noon. No matter what, I have to set up a banquet for a God like you!" With all of the issues settled, Samsara's manager naturally relaxed. He didn't immediately kick Ye Xiu aside. He was still as enthusiastic as before.
"There's no need for that! I'm in a hurry to get back. I'll come back sooner or later. "Ye Xiu said.
"Ha ha, you're right. I hope I can see you again soon." Samsara's manager said.
"Then I'll see you then."
"You're really not going to eat?"
"Eat what!" Ye Xiu waved his hand and left Samsara.
When he came out of the building, he turned his head and saw that there were quite a few rooms upstairs. Ye Xiu guessed that Samsara had already started polishing their characters overnight. When Samsara's players woke up, they would have a bunch of characters that were unrivaled in the Alliance in terms of skill points.
Seeing how Samsara was working overnight, they probably wouldn't reveal the guide to their pro players. After all, pro players moved around. Even if they signed a non-disclosure agreement, there was still a bit of uncertainty. It was better to leave it in the hands of someone they trusted. As for how Samsara would use this guide, Ye Xiu wasn't sure. However, he believed that Samsara would definitely be able to see the problems with this guide. The reason they bought it out was probably to use it as a bargaining chip to win the championship. Ye Xiu guessed that Samsara wouldn't use this guide as a tool to make money.
This sort of thing was only for studios to play around with. Pro Clubs were already at the top of the Glory scene. Compared to the bottom, who knew how many levels lower.
In the Alliance, a single transfer of a player's character could easily earn several million dollars. From the current trend of development, it wouldn't be difficult to break through ten million dollars. Although the characters used in the Alliance relied on the game to exist, in reality, because of the existence of the Alliance, the value of these characters was no longer as simple as ordinary in-game accounts. The Glory Alliance was already a brand that far surpassed the value of the game itself.
After returning to the hotel, he first booked a return ticket and rested. That night, Ye Xiu had already returned to City H's Happy Internet Cafe. When he entered the practice room, he saw that everyone was gathered here. When they saw Ye Xiu enter, everyone's expressions turned solemn.
"How much!" Wei Chen's voice was a bit hoarse. In reality, Ye Xiu had been in contact with them for the past two days. They obviously couldn't wait to ask, but Ye Xiu never said anything. This was also because Ye Xiu didn't feel at ease until everything was verified. In order to not cause them to fall from heaven to hell, Ye Xiu never revealed anything. And now, he could finally say it.
