Chapter 1862? Fan Li’s business
"What you do is always reassuring."
Xiao Tianyang put down the plan in his hand and said, "You can let Zhang Yi get in touch with the other party first."
"If Aganzuo and others don't have much resistance, then the plan will be implemented."
"On the other hand, if there is something wrong, then it should be adjusted until both parties are satisfied."
"Currently, we still have time to have detailed discussions with Aganzuo and others."
"Remember, we are collaborators, not aggressors."
"As long as they don't misunderstand, there will be no surprises in subsequent reception issues."
Xiao He stood up and took the plan back into his hands, and at the same time said: "My lord, I understand."
Xiao Tianyang raised his hand to signal the other party to continue sitting down, and he said: "How is Mr. Fan's business doing?"
When Xiao He heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Reporting to the emperor, Mr. Fan's business has always been a sure profit."
"First, they sold the soul tools that were eliminated by Shenwu, and then they emptied the armor that was built on the eve of the establishment of the dynasty."
"But now, Mr. Fan has started buying and selling new equipment brought back from the front line..."
"If it weren't for Mr. Fan's great prestige among the people, he might have been scolded to death by a large number of soul masters."
Xiao Tianyang couldn't help being stunned on the spot after hearing this.
"Mr. Fan has done a good job, why are you scolding him?"
"Besides, the money didn't fall into Mr. Fan's pocket, so what's the use of him?"
"Furthermore, the Ministry of Household Affairs spends a lot of money every year on construction and purchasing various materials."
"Don't they appreciate it at all?"
According to common sense, the Hubu should be the most popular among the six soul masters.
After all, the Ministry of Personnel is in charge of officials.
The Ministry of Rites is responsible for diplomacy and teaching.
The jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry is various engineering and agriculture.
The Criminal Department is in charge of law, investigation, interrogation and arrests.
As for the Ministry of War...leaving aside the folk soul masters for the moment, there are not many people in the temple who are not officials of the Ministry of War who have access to military power.
The household department is different.
At least Fan Li's reputation for being fond of doing business has spread throughout the Tianwu Dynasty.
Moreover, the things he sells are a bit expensive, but the price/performance ratio is a bit higher.
However, Xiao He explained helplessly: "If it was only the first two waves of sales, it wouldn't be scolded."
Xiao Tianyang suddenly realized it after listening to the explanation.
For example, take the soul guide mentioned by Xiao He before.
That batch of soul guides was eliminated not because of quality issues, but because they could not keep up with the times.
It happened to be the day Xiao Tianyang came out of seclusion, and he wanted to build an elite division, so he was eliminated.
After all, one problem can be seen from the weapons and equipment used by the major legionnaires today.
Xiao Tianyang is a person who pays attention to both appearance and strength.
As for the lifespan of the second-generation colonial armor, it is like a flash in the pan.
In less than half a year, 'power armor' completely replaced its status.
If it weren't for Fan Li, then the greatest value of the second-generation armor would be to resmelt it into materials.
It's just that folk soul masters don't change weapons very frequently.
At least it's definitely not comparable to soldiers on the battlefield.
But Fan Li just sold them the soul guide, and later launched the matching colonial armor.
Can they not be angry?
If you don't buy it, it will be equivalent to a set of equipment with one part missing for no reason.
Therefore, even if they cursed, they still put the colonial armor in the shopping cart.
After all, most of what they purchased before were auxiliary, reconnaissance, or more offensive soul tools.
There is no defensive category either.
It's just that it's relatively simple in function, and it's all used to save lives.
In other words, if it is not used on a daily basis, it will basically not be used as regular equipment.
Moreover, the colonial armor was used to enhance defense, assist in combat, and ensure survival rate.
Otherwise, how could the colonial armor be sold out on the fourth day after it was put on the shelves?
Even though most of the folk soul masters are poor, there is still a small number of soul masters who have money to buy equipment.
At least in their view, spending some money to save your life is the key.
Otherwise, you will save money and then lose it halfway, but you may be advantageous to others.
In fact, Fan Li's first two operations were not much of a problem.
Although he didn't get a good reputation in the end, at least he wouldn't be scolded.
It's not the main reason why things are expensive.
As long as the quality is good, most soul masters will be willing to spend money.
The key is to sell a whole set of things in two lots, which is a bit exciting.
The reason why Fan Li was labeled a 'profiteer' was because of the third wave of equipment sales.
Most of the first wave of soul guides were props, rather than weapons specifically used for offense.
The second wave of colonial armors belong to the defensive category. Although they are somewhat offensive, they are mostly defensive.
Therefore, Fan Li started selling weapons in the third wave.
However, the manufacturer of the weapons was not the Tianwu Dynasty, but the underground city on the northern front.
Since the establishment of the Tianwu Dynasty, soul tools below level ten have been completely open to the public.
Of course, custom-installed soul cannons and shells above level nine are not allowed to be produced for any reason.
Nowadays, if we look at every city in the Tianwu Dynasty, there are at least hundreds of soul tool manufacturing workshops.
Some of them are chain stores, some are independently operated, and some are better able to provide design and one-on-one specialized services.
The behavior of the Tianwu Dynasty also announced that they would no longer intervene in the weapons market.
As for the purpose, it's simpler.
The power armor and standard weapons on the production line today are simply not enough.
If you can't meet your needs, how can you continue to invest resources and productivity into tomorrow?
Xiao Tianyang accepted Xiao He's proposal at that time, which was for the people to be self-sufficient and meet their immediate needs.
But Douluo Continent's soul guide also has a drawback.
That is, long-range combat is possible, but melee combat is not.
Weapons in the dungeon plane are just the opposite.
They are not good at ranged combat, but are very good at melee combat.
Especially his attainments in cold weapons have reached the pinnacle.
Even the Tang family's blacksmith masters cannot compare with the underground city plane.
And most soul masters don't like to use long-range soul guides when hunting wild beasts or wild beasts.
Because this behavior will directly cause damage to the appearance of the prey.
In other words, Fan Li’s third wave of sales is also a hit.
Of course the soul master can refuse to buy it.
Just in terms of hunting speed, it can never be compared with a soul master armed with sophisticated weapons.
From then on, Fan Li was 'criticized' by folk soul masters.
In the imperial study room, Xiao Tianyang couldn't help but smile: "No wonder Mr. Fan is always drinking at home recently."
The vast majority of soul masters do not have bad intentions.
At most, it's just a few words of ridicule, and I won't really hate Fan Li because of it.
After all, although he used some tricks to sell equipment, there was nothing wrong with the quality of the items.
Therefore, no one in the temple will care about the gossip among the people.
To take a step back, Fan Li is now the God of Wealth of the Tianwu Dynasty.
Xiao Tianyang had to rely on him to rebuild the economy, so other people seeing him would be like a mouse seeing a cat.
As for the reason for his depression, it is also very simple.
The Tianwu Dynasty's follow-up plan revolves around one purpose.
That is to facilitate Douluo Continent's perfect reception of the dungeon plane as much as possible.
And now is the peak period of burning military expenditures.
Eight main armies, plus an ice field corps and more than [-] million defensive corps.
The national treasury, which was gradually recovering, was drained of liquidity in an instant.
If the capture of the northern battlefield could not recover some losses, Fan Li would definitely not be just depressed now.
It's possible to go crazy.
