Chapter 1941: The target, the magic scorpion star cluster! (1/2)
Di Feiwen was half-truthful to Li Yao's bitterness, but he told Li Yao to listen to the business stories of the ”small merchants” in the real human empire.
According to Di Feiwen, the reselling of precious cultivation resources among the various worlds within the empire is theoretically a very profitable business.
But because 99% of the people are ”primitives” and not much better than slaves, it is extremely difficult to generate effective demand, which has led to a long-term sluggish market.
Even if some of the ”primitive people” are free citizens of the empire, they are often personally attached to the strong and the rich. In this way, the resources they need are purchased and sold by the strong and the rich. Most of what they need is cheap and low-quality. It is difficult to obtain high profits for the large-scale goods, and it is even more difficult to develop a diverse and colorful upstream and downstream industrial chain and emerging frontiers such as the Federation.
And those 1% of ”real people” naturally have extremely strong demands for training resources, no matter the magic weapon, crystal armor, pill, or starship, they are all willing to pay high prices.
However, they often have intertwined business networks and long-term partners. Many areas are monopolized by long-established giants such as the ”four major election emperor families”. The emerging business groups that have slowly emerged in the past few hundred years cannot compete with these old brands. Nobles and even ”imperial merchants” compete.
”99% of the people at the bottom have no demand for cultivation, and 1% of the nobles have a demand for cultivation, but the entire market has long been monopolized by them. Latecomers will not be able to squeeze in without being squeezed out by them. Not bad!”
Di Feiwen said quite angrily.
Li Yao listened to it, and it was understood that the empire was a mess, but there were still two major interest groups faintly.
First of all, when the true human empire was established, the ”Cherish from the Dragon” who helped Black Star Emperor Wu Ying to usurp the throne, that is, the royal family plus the old nobles such as the ”four major election emperor families”.
In the first one or two hundred years of the establishment of the empire, they have almost occupied the elite area in the center of Xinghai, monopolizing all profitable areas, and becoming the rulers and defenders of the game.
Then there is the new world discovered by the empire during its expansion.
Some of these new worlds are governed by indigenous powerhouses who surrender to the empire; some are governed by the defeated exiles in the Xinghai Central Power Game like the Black Wind Fleet.
Although they are slightly weaker, they win because they are large enough. For nearly a thousand years, they can also accumulate a certain amount of strength, and they dare to express some dissatisfaction with the rules of the game formulated by Xinghai Central.
The so-called ”travelers” by Di Feiwen are more miserable. Most of them have failed in various struggles in the past millennia, lost their homes, and failed to conquer the new world. They have to wander among the stars.
The so-called ”Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance” is an organization where losers huddled together and licked each other's wounds-at least that was true a hundred years ago.
With the keen sense of businessmen, they faintly perceive a series of rigid and corrupt problems in the current system of the empire.
But asking them to ”rise up” to overthrow the old system and build a new world would have neither the courage, nor interest, nor the strength.
What they can do is to run around the world where the emperor and the great nobles are not too powerful in the periphery of the empire, looking for strong people who can cooperate and even take refuge, hoping to obtain protection, expand cooperation, and slowly establish a ”free market” similar to... s things.
Heifengjie was originally a very good partner of the Wanjie Business League.
Because the Black Wind Realm is in the four battles, there is a great interest in cultivation resources, and almost no one refuses to come.
The ”primitives” of the Black Wind Realm, under the weight of the survival crisis, also have more cultivation opportunities than the ”primitives” of the inland empire.
After all, even if it is a small ”slave soldier”, it is always a good thing to be a little stronger.
Another, Black Wind monk is notoriously rebellious, and he won’t buy anyone’s account when he is crazy. Neither the emperor nor the four major election emperor families like these lawless savages. The alliance can take advantage of this opportunity.
The Ten Thousand Realms Business League has been infiltrating the Heifeng Realm a long time ago. The cooperation between the two parties has been quite pleasant. Even Di Feiwen, the owner of the ”Di Family”, a very prestigious family in the Heifeng Realm, has become Wan Realm. The senior deacon of the business alliance.
It's a pity that the cooperation between the two parties has not yet been further developed, and the five worlds including Heifeng have been broken by the Holy League. After a series of changes, Di Feiwen hibernated in confusion for nearly a hundred years and came to Xinghai Beach.
This is called ”the mountains and rivers have no way to go, and the willows are in the dark and the flowers are in another village.” Di Feiwen did not expect that the ”Xingyao Federation” such a ”national cultivation” country should exist in the Xinghai Beach!
Di Feiwen’s Dao heart has long been filled with glittering imperial crystal coins. He doesn’t care about the illusory principles of cultivation or immortality, but the current federal commercial system effectively stimulates people’s ”requirements for cultivation.” , And formed after stimulation, the scale of the entire ”cultivation market and upstream and downstream industrial chain” made his heart beat wildly, so excited that he couldn't be himself.
Only the seven or eight barren worlds in the Xinghai Beach can have such a market. If this model can be copied to the center of Xinghai, what is the concept?
