599 Chapter 628: Xie Donglin’s daily work (part two)
During lunch time, Xie Donglin finally met Hu Kaifeng, whose face was covered in b.u.t.ter. It had only been a few days of overtime, but his senior’s face looked much more haggard.
As expected… overtime was still too bad for his body…
However, he could understand why his senior seemed to be enjoying himself. As a straight-a student, he had an infatuation for experiments in his bones. Scientific research experiments told them that… As interesting as the average Netizen’s fascination with King’s glory…
Lunch was a private meal. High-ranking officials like them did not have to eat big pots of rice like the orcs. They were equipped with specialized chefs.
When he thought about how he could be considered a high-ranking official, Xie Donglin’s mood improved, with a bright smile, he said to the fox girl, “One star Rhino Steak, one gla.s.s of fresh-squeezed red crystal fruit juice, and one star Berry sundae. That’s it!”
“Alright!”The Fox Girl Winked at Xie Donglin and said with a smile, “What kind of sauce do you want for the steak?”
“Beef bone braised sauce!”Xie Donglin rubbed his hands and said with a smile.
The other party jotted it down with a smile. Then, she looked at Hu Kaifeng who was beside her. Hu Kaifeng yawned and said lazily, “Same as him, but I want fresh milk and mushroom sauce for the steak…”
“Okay, please wait a moment!”The Fox girl smiled very gently at the two of them. Then, she swayed her graceful body and slowly left.
The Fox clan was born with a beautiful appearance, and they often had to rely on powerful clans. Now, in the base, these single grandfathers of mages were a rare delicacy, so they naturally had to work hard to perform…
However, it was clear that Xie Donglin was more interested in delicacies than the fox. The star Rhino steak here was plump and juicy. The taste was far from what he could compare with the synthetic steak he had eaten in the buffet. In addition, the rich beef bone braised sauce.., the taste was simply explosive. This also made lunch time one of the times he looked forward to the most!
He had checked the information. The beef bone gravy here was made from the star rhinoceros steak that had been cooked for more than eighty hours. The process was complicated. In Gondolin, a portion of the gravy was sold for a lot of points. The One Hu Kaifeng ordered was not cheap either, spiritual Velvet was a type of mushroom, but it was extremely difficult to grow. There were very few plants in their base, and they only provided high-level personnel like them.
Thinking about the discrimination and preferential treatment everywhere, Xie Donglin finally understood why those rich people liked this kind of cla.s.s life. Not to mention the taste, just the feeling of being able to enjoy the feeling that others could not enjoy was very wonderful… …
“Senior, I haven’t seen you for a few days. What are you busy with?”Xie Donglin asked curiously.
“Isn’t it still about the new gun design?”Hu Kaifeng sighed. “In the past, most of the Lord players were ORC soldiers. There were fewer agility types, and they were more enthusiastic about melee weapons. Now that there are more agility types with great difficulty, the demand is greater. Of course, we have to seize this opportunity…”. “…”
‘We?’?
Xie Donglin was slightly stunned. Unknowingly, his senior seemed to have integrated into the faction…
“Did it go smoothly?”Xie Donglin asked.
“Not very smoothly…”hu Kaifeng shook his head. “Compared to firearms, traditional crossbows seem to be more popular recently.”
“We can also make crossbows, right?”Xie donglin hurriedly said, “Are mechanical point-pressing composite bows and mechanical crossbows inferior to traditional crossbows?”
“They really can’t be compared…”. Hu Kaifeng sighed and said, “Nowadays, traditional crossbows use high-grade wood cultivated by the elemental elves. Crossbows made through crafts are completely unfamiliar with mechanical crossbows in terms of strength. Moreover, their bows are easier to maintain, and the cost is lower. Most importantly, they have the ability to conduct magic!”
“The ability to conduct magic?”Hu Kaifeng was stunned.
“It’s enchantment…”hu Kaifeng said faintly, “It’s the additional elemental power blessed by the elemental elves. The enchantment of wood is obviously better than metal. This is more attractive to soldiers who have practiced elemental breathing!”
“Then is there no market for weapons in our mechanical civilization?”Xie Donglin was stunned.
“That’s not…”. Hu Kaifeng shook his head and said, “It depends on the person who uses it. Enchanted wooden bows are more suitable for elite soldiers who have cultivated the elemental breathing technique. In order to unleash its power, there is a certain requirement for one’s own strength. However, for low-level soldiers, mechanical products can improve their combat ability in a short period of time because the firepower of the machinery is fixed. It Won’t be increased just because of the bullets or crossbows that you use to shoot!”
“But… our force is not a pure mechanical civilization!”Xie Donglin frowned. “Aren’t We the Magic Power Civilization? Can’t we solve the problem of magic conductivity?”
As far as he knew, the magic power civilization was a combination of the mechanical civilization and the arcane civilization. The original intention of this series of civilizations was to combine the advantages of the mechanical civilization and the arcane civilization!
The mechanical civilization relied on high-tech weapons and did not pay attention to its own evolution, which led to the eventual decision to abandon its fragile life forms and go on the path of transforming humans. That was also the reason for the rise of the planned origin civilization.
On the other hand, the arcane civilization relied too much on the life forms themselves, which made many untalented life forms extremely inefficient.
The magic power civilization was different. By combining the strengths of both civilizations, they did not give up the root of the evolution of life, but also took advantage of the external effects of the mechanical technology!
For example, HAX technology was a successful example of the magic power civilization. The equipment of hax was made of metal, but the magic conductivity of the weapons was not inferior to that of traditional wood, moreover, as the use of metal materials was studied, it was even more powerful. Moreover, because it was a mechanical product, it was far superior to conventional cold weapons in terms of enhancement, and it was very popular in the market.
Including the late kinetic energy firearms, in addition to the firepower of the firearms themselves, it could also absorb the energy of the weapon users themselves to add to it. It was really able to stack the advantages of the mechanical civilization and the arcane civilization!
However, the drawback was…
“The cost is too high!”Hu Kaifeng said helplessly, “Not to mention that it can’t be made now, even if it is made, there are not many people in the market who can afford it. Moreover, there are already people who are ahead in the market for Hex Weapons.”
“Then, should we give up?”Xie Donglin frowned. He always felt that the decision made by his own force was not very good. Although the market for high-end weapons was small, if they did not develop in this aspect, they would always lag behind.
“Not exactly…”. Hu Kaifeng smiled and said, “The research and development costs in this aspect are too high. That player named Xu Xian only focuses on the research of close-combat hex weapons. The main products now are the hex gloves and kinetic energy greatsword. There are still gaps in the long-range equipment, so our magic-powered weapons should try to develop in this aspect, but the prerequisite is that we can successfully negotiate today!”
“Negotiate?”Xie Donglin was stunned.
“Why do you think I have time to eat steak today?”Hu Kaifeng rolled his eyes at him and said, “It’s because all the shareholders have gone to talk about the raw materials business. If you want to study these things, high-grade raw materials are indispensable. You must find a long-term supply partner.”
“Who?”Xie Donglin asked quickly.
“Of course! Haven’t you been familiarizing yourself with the market data for the past two days? What have you gotten familiar with?”Hu Kaifeng rolled his eyes and said, “The most powerful tribe in the raw materials market is naturally the little cabbage tribe!”
“This name…”Xie Donglin could not help but roll his eyes.
“The name is a little LOW, but our strength is first-cla.s.s. Let me tell you, if this negotiation doesn’t go smoothly, our strength will probably go down a notch in the future…”
As he said this, Hu Kaifeng looked around, then, he lowered his voice and said softly, “You must remember to improve yourself after work. Our contract is only for five years. If you want to get more shares in five years, it will definitely depend on your ability. To take a step back, if this power is not strong enough, as long as we are outstanding enough, we still have many ways to go. I’ve checked, developers like us are very popular!”
Xie Donglin nodded. This was also why he would try his best to use his spare time to attend meditation cla.s.ses. Only by improving himself could he be valued more and more in the future…
This platform had a great opportunity now, but correspondingly, the compet.i.tion was also great!
