508 A Booming Business (2/2)
I should target Foundation Establishment realm cultivators… Since I have limited resources, I should earn battle credits via other channels… After all, there are no rules saying that one can only earn battle credits by completing missions… A strange light shone in Wang Baole's eyes, and a plan began to surface gradually in his head. He assessed it carefully. Soon, a determined look shone in his eyes. He raised his right hand, and the Spirit Boat that had the ability to enter the Sea of Fire appeared before him instantly.
Wang Baole narrowed his eyes as he studied the Spirit Boat. He had refined this Spirit Boat with his own hands, so he knew that a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator would be able to steer and control it. This meant that he could use this boat to enter the Sea of Fire, and also allow others to borrow this boat, enter the Sea of Fire, and reach deeper levels of the sea!
Core Formation realm cultivators could already do that, which was why this Dharmic treasure wouldn't be that useful to them. It was different for a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator. Foundation Establishment realm cultivators couldn't enter the Sea of Fire. That meant that they could only complete missions on land. They had to compete against many other cultivators. When they completed their missions, the battle credits they were awarded were pathetic.
However… if they could enter the Sea of Fire, more missions would be accessible to them. Missions like searching and hunting for Inferno Rats on the seabed… could be done by Foundation Establishment realm cultivators as well. They couldn't do so now because they couldn't submerge into the Sea of Fire.
Up to now, only Core Formation realm cultivators could enter the Sea of Fire. That was why all missions in the Sea of Fire were monopolized by Core Formation realm cultivators. Wang Baole thought about this very hard. He felt that he should be more fair and just. He should create more Spirit Boats, then… rent them out to the Foundation Establishment realm cultivators from the Vast Expanse Dao Palace!
Wang Baole thought he shouldn't overcharge. He'd simply ask for one battle credit for every two hours. Based on his knowledge of the Sea of Fire and his assessment of a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator's abilities, a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator would only be able to spend a maximum of two hours underwater while controlling the Spirit Boat.
If a Foundation Establishment realm cultivator was willing to use a few Spirit Stones, he might be able to prolong the duration underwater. Regardless, based on Wang Baole's calculations, this was a business that was only going to reap profits for him.
They'll have to sign a contract. They'll have to compensate me accordingly if they damage my Spirit Boat! Wang Baole grew excited at that thought. He knew that he was penniless at the moment, though. He only had one Spirit Boat. In order to earn more rental fees, the more boats he had, the better.
Seems like I have to go pawn off a few more Dharmic Armaments. Wang Baole took a deep breath. Having made up his mind, he contacted the fat cultivator from the Vast Expanse Dao Palace immediately. The latter seemed happy when he heard that Wang Baole wanted to pawn his Dharmic Armaments again. He had been using Wang Baole's Dharmic Armament during this period and found them quite powerful. He agreed to Wang Baole's request immediately. However, he couldn't afford to take on so many Dharmic Armaments himself, so he contacted a few others. Wang Baole pawned two Dharmic Armaments in exchange for a loan. The battle credits were enough to refine two more Spirit Boats.
Wang Baole's efforts paid off. He soon refined the additional Spirit Boats. After which, he made use of his status as a Core Formation realm cultivator to leave his own message on the mission stone slab.
”Holy boat for rent to enter the sea!”
”It doesn't matter what level of cultivation you're at, you'll be able to travel to the depths of the Sea of Fire with this boat. It's not for sale. With just a few battle credits, you'll be able to rent it for two hours. There are limited slots. Please contact me immediately if you require such services!”
After sending out the message, Wang Baole still felt that it wasn't enough promotion. He immediately called for Zhou Biao and the other cultivators on Green Fire Island. They were currently in awe of Wang Baole. After receiving Wang Baole's instructions, regardless of their reluctance, they still left the island with great resignation and headed for the main Vast Expanse Dao Palace island. They began promoting Wang Baole's business and advertising about this boat of his that could enter the Sea of Fire.
Everything's prepped. Now, we'll just have to see what the response is like. There are twenty-four hours in a day, and I have three Spirit Boats. Since I can earn a maximum of three credits every two hours, the most I can earn in a day is thirty-six credits. That's more than a thousand in a month. I'll earn back my capital in three months!
It's a pity that I don't have enough capital. Else, I'd be earning more! Wang Baole did his calculations and was pleased with the figures. He began to wait excitedly and anxiously.
At present, he was unaware that the Vast Expanse Dao Palace rarely saw messages like his being released. That was why as soon as he announced that he had boats for rental, he caught the attention of many people…
