Chapter 257: Chapter 256: The Market for engineers
Translator: 549690339
As soon as the contract announcement was made, a stone would cause a thousand ripples. All the players who had more engineers under them were stunned by the sudden drop of the lucky bag. The next second, they all laughed foolishly… …
After the temporary battlefield mission ended, the captured human-type engineers could be said to be the most unpopular type.
First of all, the engineers did not have combat attributes, so they could not satisfy the dreams of most players who wanted to establish their own private army. In the future valuation, although these warrior-type people would not be of any use for the time being.., however, Grandpa Lu’s a.n.a.lysis post had a lot of confidence in their future.
The reason was very simple. After the players went on long-term missions, they would definitely have their own territory, and the territory needed strong guards. High-quality combat soldiers were beneficial to their private exploration after they had their own private territory, their value would definitely rise rapidly, and it was a long-term investment.
Even if they didn’t sell it, nurturing it by themselves would be very beneficial to the exploration of the universe in the future.
Hence, even though these combat soldiers ate a lot and the cost of nurturing them was very high, they were still relatively popular.
As for the living population, the most popular was still the land farmers. With the opening of the grazing land, the prices of the gnolls with weak physiques also rose, but the status of the engineers had always been very low.
First of all, they didn’t have much strength. In terms of transporting minerals, they couldn’t compare to the ogres and minotaurs who had long strength. The only advantage was that the mining process was more meticulous, so it wasn’t easy to lose the pickaxes, but this wasn’t a difficult thing to do. Those beastmen who were more dumb gradually became familiar with the rhythm after being trained. Now, there were very few beastmen who broke the pickaxes.
As a result, the cost-effectiveness ratio of the engineers was even lower. Without farming skills, their herding vision and speed could not compare to professional gnolls. They could not compare to the beastmen in moving bricks, and they did not have any combat attributes, currently, the cheapest trading price in the base could be said to be the engineers.
This made the players who had obtained a bunch of engineers from the quests very regretful. They watched as the farmers and ranchers were doing well, and they drooled in envy.
Among them, the little fairy with athlete’s foot was one of them. When she first started the temporary quest, her original intention was to capture more Tauren so that she could form the Tauren army that she yearned for.
However, she arrived a little late that day. There was nothing she could do. Her beloved bean needed backup for her new alb.u.m. As one of the leaders of her fan club, how could she not organize her friends to go and browse the song list together?
In the end, she had been organizing everyone to go through the song list since Dawn until noon the next day. The next day, her head was dizzy and she could not open her eyes even though it was only a few hours before the mission started, after enduring for a while, she decided to just have a good nap. Yes, just half an hour!
In the end, when she closed her eyes and opened them, five hours had pa.s.sed!
It was exactly the same as the plot where she went to work in the morning and took a nap for another ten minutes, only to travel through an hour!
By the time she ran to the battlefield while drooling in her dreams, the Tauren, the Gardo, and the Griffin Knights had all been s.n.a.t.c.hed away, leaving behind a bunch of engineers who were scratching their heads in confusion.
At this time, how could she still have time to pick out the species? s.n.a.t.c.h It! !
It was also the reason why she had a bunch of engineers at the back… …
After that, things got even worse. This thing could not be used for farming, and it was also very slow in herding. If she were to move bricks, even a dozen of them would not be as useful as a Tauren, causing the value to drop rapidly. By the time she reacted… Ten engineers in the market would not be able to exchange for a single farmer…
Many players were selling at a low price. The lower the market price, the fewer people would buy it. The fewer people would buy it, and the market would end at the end of the month. This had formed a vicious cycle!
By the time the trade was done at 12 o’clock yesterday, there were already 30 engineers trading for a farmer or a gnoll.
The little fairy was one of the few players who insisted on not selling at a low price. She believed that the first Gnoll was not worth much? Wasn’t the price still rising? Didn’t those who sold the Gnoll at a low price regret it so much that they almost tore their intestines out?
With this kind of mood, the little fairy kept holding it in, and this holding… … lasted for one or two months… …
But in the end, this F * cking stock was really the same as the one she bought. If it didn’t go up, then it really F * cking wouldn’t go up… … It plummeted all the way, and every day, it fell below the bottom line…
Just as she was hesitating whether she should be ruthless enough to sell it at a low price to get back some capital, this stock finally welcomed its spring, and it was still the kind of spring in March.
As soon as the AI released the contract news, the unit price of the engineers instantly skyrocketed. Currently, there were already people on the market who had spent one million to buy one. This unit price could not even be compared to the peak of the land farming industry, but there was still a price but no market, anyone who had the engineers in their hands was tightly squeezed. No matter how hard the people around them tried to persuade them, they would not sell. No matter how high the price soared, they would not sell.
What a joke. Everyone in China knew how high the value of contracting real estate was. What was more profitable than real estate in China?
As the person who had the most engineers, little fairy was naturally the target of everyone’s attention. After her excitement, little fairy began to be vigilant. As expected, it had only been half an hour, she had sent at least 100,000 private messages!
The rational little fairy chose to log off at the first moment!
She had no choice, the map was too small?
Everyone in the base knew where she lived…
If she did not log off, she would definitely be surrounded by people… …
As expected, after she logged off, Grandpa Lu sent a message. There were over a thousand players outside her dormitory, all of them clamoring that he was willing to spend 1.5 million to buy one of her engineers.
F * ck… There were so many rich people! !
The little fairy could not help but sigh. There were only tens of thousands of players in the base, but there were actually over a thousand big shots who could easily take out a few million. So it turned out that the saying on the Internet that the monthly salary was tens of thousands of beggars was actually true…
But how was she going to understand what was going on with the contract project after logging off?
For the first half an hour, she was happy, and for the second half an hour, she was busy running for her life. She had no time to find out what that thing was. There was no official website for this game, so she couldn’t even see the updates if she wanted to.
How about… … Go and see the posts that Kid Old Lu wrote. The speed at which the Kid wrote the posts in the normal version updates was quite fast…
Just as she was thinking about it, the phone suddenly rang. It was her beloved Dou’s “h.e.l.lo, h.e.l.lo, h.e.l.lo…”.
When she heard her idol’s song, she giggled for a second or two before she realized what was happening and picked up the phone.
“Excuse me, is this Ms. Chen Siyu?”A deep male voice came from the other end of the phone!
From the sound of the voice, it was a mature and handsome hunk… Chen Siyu made her judgment.
“Ah… I Am… Who Are You?”
“Oh, h.e.l.lo, I saw your rental information in the same city in 1998. Have you rented out your house?”
“Are you an agent?”The little fairy asked cautiously. If it was an agent, she would hang up the phone without hesitation even if it was a hot guy!
“Oh, no, no, I’m renting it myself. I’m in a hurry to rent it!”
“Oh, I see…”
“When is it convenient for you to come and look at the house?”The other end of the phone asked.
“Um… anytime. Can I ask your name first?”The little fairy still asked politely.
“Oh, My Name Is w.a.n.g Lin! !”On the other end of the phone, w.a.n.g Goudan’s father replied in a low voice.
