Currently, over 20 Advanced Forgers and Advanced Engineers stood inside one of the Candlelight Trading Firm's Special Forging Rooms.
These Advanced Forgers and Advanced Engineers had been summoned by A Melancholy Smile under Shifeng's command.
As Advanced Lifestyle players, they would be highly valued in any Guild. They would hold relatively high positions in the Guild.
However, after everyone entered the room, they all became quiet. Everyone stared at the simple and old design on the table, unable to move their eyes away.
"Guild Leader, this is …" A Melancholy Smile rubbed his eyes, unable to believe his eyes.
Advanced Transport Carriages
To ordinary players, this item might not mean much, but to her, a manager of a trading firm, it was of great significance.
An Advanced Transport Carriage was far more valuable than a Bronze Locomotive.
Not only could an Advanced Transport Carriage transport a large number of players, but it could also transport a large number of goods. It was far better than the ordinary carriages sold by NPCs on the market.
There were simply too many important items in God's Domain that players couldn't store in their bags. Players had to rely on themselves to carry them. This was especially true for NPCs that couldn't store in their bags.
Meanwhile, the carriages sold or rented by NPCs on the market could only carry a small number of players. Even the Bronze Carriages she had painstakingly obtained could only carry up to five people. Although there were plenty of items that could be stored in bags, there were only ten items that couldn't be stored in bags. Most importantly, these carriages couldn't travel anywhere other than the trade routes between NPC towns. This greatly limited the carriages' usefulness.
Transport Carriages were different. As they were personally crafted by players, they didn't have many restrictions.
Ordinary Transport Carriages could carry up to ten players. In addition, Bronze Carriages could carry up to thirty items that couldn't be stored in their bags. Moreover, these carriages were much faster.
Generally, items that couldn't be stored in bags were very valuable. Whether they were commissioned by NPCs or transported by players from one place to another, these items could be sold. Moreover, it was easy to make a profit by transporting these items between towns. Although items that could be stored in bags were large, the profit margin was relatively small. Moreover, if one wanted to make a profit, they had to travel across borders, which was extremely dangerous.
If Transport Carriages were sold on the market, merchant players would fight over them.
Not to mention the high-class carriages.
It could carry up to 20 players. Needless to say, its storage capacity was far greater than that of a Bronze Horse Carriage. It could also transport up to 60 items that could not be stored. Moreover, its speed could even rival that of a Mysterious-Iron Mount.
If Candlelight could be equipped with advanced carriages, even if they didn't sell any goods, they could still make a lot of money just by transporting goods.
How can this not make A Melancholy Smile excited
"Now that you've seen the design, I hope you can start making it as soon as possible. As for the key materials, I'll find a way to get them. You can start making whatever you can now," Shifeng said with a smile as he looked at the dumbfounded crowd.
The Advanced Transport Carriage was very good, but the materials needed to make it were also very rare.
Even for the current Candlelight, the other materials were easy to obtain. Only the main material, Green Ebony, was extremely difficult to obtain. Even Shifeng could only think of a few places that could produce Green Ebony. Moreover, these places were of higher levels than the one before. The lowest-leveled map he could think of was the Level 60 map Crying Ghost Ridge. However, that map was a neutral map. To current players, it was a forbidden land.
Normally, only Tier 2 players would go there to level up and earn money.
However, for the sake of obtaining the Advanced Transport Carriage, Shifeng planned to make a trip there.
If he had the Advanced Transport Carriage, he could open up a trade route between Stone Forest Town and other NPC towns sooner.
Following which, Shifeng had everyone research the components needed to make the Advanced Transport Carriage, leaving A Melancholy Smile behind.
After everyone left, Shifeng turned to A Melancholy Smile and asked, "Is there any movement from the Blackwater Trading Firm and the Heavenly Chamber of Commerce?"
Before the war, Blackwater and Heaven's Burial had engaged in a frenzied price war, trying to squeeze Candlelight out of the Starmoon Kingdom and whittle down Ling YI Society's financial resources.
Now that Blackwater and Heaven's Burial had suffered a crushing defeat, they would definitely take action.
This was especially true when Ling Yi needed money the most right now.
"Just as you guessed, Guild Leader, they've lowered their prices again. The price of the Light Stones is especially steep. Now, they're selling them for 30 Copper each. They're not even at their cost price," A Melancholy Smile said.
To current players, the Light Stones were already a must-have item when they ventured out into the fields. They were also Candlelight's most competitive item among ordinary players.
Now that Blackwater and Heavenly were suddenly selling the Light Stones for 30 Copper each, one could see just how much the two trading firms hated Candlelight.
To Blackwater and Heavenly, 30 Copper wasn't even enough to cover their costs. However, to Candlelight, it was still a profit. After all, Candlelight had plenty of Advanced Forgers. After factoring in the Special Workshop and the Flame Workshop, the cost of producing the Light Stones was only 20 Copper.
"Since they want to play, we'll play with them until the end. We'll sell the Light Stones for 25 Copper each. In addition, we'll start introducing the Exotic Stamina Potion." Shifeng didn't mind the price. He had long since prepared for the fact that the Light Stones wouldn't make a profit. After all, the Light Stones were a common item in God's Domain. He had already been satisfied with making a fortune from them.
However, the Exotic Stamina Potion was a different story.
The Exotic Stamina Potion was a Unique Recipe. Ordinary players could afford the potion, but it was a must-have potion for elite players. Most importantly, it would definitely be popular among gatherer players.
Gathering items was one of the main sources of income for players in God's Domain.
However, gathering items consumed far more Stamina than fighting Bosses. Moreover, the more precious an item was, the more Stamina it consumed. As a result, players couldn't gather items for long periods of time.
As long as the Exotic Stamina Potion was available, Shifeng refused to believe that players who enjoyed gathering items wouldn't buy it.
"I'll get it done right away." A Melancholy Smile nodded excitedly.
He had long since grown tired of Blackwater and Heavenly. Now that Candlelight had introduced the Exotic Stamina Potion, he wanted to see how the two trading firms would continue toying with Candlelight.
Following which, A Melancholy Smile rearranged Candlelight's first-floor hall and set up a counter specifically for the Exotic Stamina Potion.
The appearance of the new counter immediately attracted the attention of many players.
"Commander, look over there! It seems that Candlelight has introduced a new product."
"Come, let's go take a look."
Immediately, a large group of players gathered in front of the new counter in the first-floor hall.
