Arknights is too real, right?
Chapter 272 Cheap Things
The Origin Stone smuggling mission of the Frido Chamber of Commerce is something Xia Feng has always wanted to get involved with, because it involves two pieces of information that he really wants to know.
First, although the Frido Chamber of Commerce has a large number of people and a large territory, there are very few real masters. They will not go to natural disaster areas to rob openly like the Glasgow Gang. So where do their Source Stone channels come from?
Second, Fredo just said that the 92 finished Source Stones were processed and sent back in the morning, which means that he has mastered the processing channels of the finished Source Stones.
Later, Fredo introduced them to the mission.
The buyer this time was a folk source stone technology research organization in Casimir. There were 92 finished source stones, and the agreed price was 65 million. Xia Feng did a rough calculation and found that the average price of an origin stone reached 70. Around 10,000.
He had done some research before. Due to the special nature of the Source Stone, there is no accurate price for the Source Stone circulating underground. If you are lucky, you may buy several for 200,000. If you are not lucky, you may be able to get a price for 1 million. No market.
Especially for some powerful organizations, price is not an issue. What is important is meeting the demand, the quality of the Source Stone and the stability of the supply. Therefore, the transaction of Source Stone is not that the larger the quantity, the more expensive it is. Especially It is a finished source stone, and the expensive processing costs have to be eliminated.
Fredo's meaning is obvious. This business seems to be a huge amount, but in fact he doesn't make much money. His purpose is just to make this transaction go smoothly, so as to open up the Source Stone market of the Fredo Chamber of Commerce. .
He wanted to let Victoria's neighboring countries know that in addition to the Glasgow Gang, the Source Stone could also be purchased from the Freddo Chamber of Commerce.
After the task was handed over, Xia Feng pretended to be casual and asked.
"Boss, where did we get our source stones?"
Frido's answer was a little vague.
"There are many channels, and they basically use our power in the southern region."
"What channel?"
“We have people from coastal cities all the way to cities in the hinterland.”
"Then there must be a source. Except for natural disaster areas, source stones will not grow out of thin air."
Frido didn't expect that Xia Feng would ask this question again and again, and his expression showed a trace of impatience.
"Of course there is a source."
"What's the source?"
Nanfeng beside him suddenly interrupted him.
"Stop asking!"
Frido didn't know why Xia Feng wanted to ask, but Nan Feng knew very well that Xia Feng was trying his best to find out the information he needed, just like a hunter who has locked his prey. Before hunting the target, he needs to find the target. All the wealth is mined.
Nan Feng interrupted Xia Feng's questioning because he was worried that Fredo would discover some clues.
Xia Feng chuckled.
"Nan Feng, why are you so nervous? I'm just asking. I have to perform this kind of tasks frequently in the future. Don't I want to know more about you?"
Sitting behind the desk, Fredo's mind was now on business, and he didn't think much about anything at all.
Fredo sighed.
"It's okay. If Xia Feng wants to know, I'll tell him. Our sources of Source Stone can be said to be all over the world, but we don't need to take the initiative to find them. Infected people from all over the world will take the initiative to bring the Source Stone to Come Victoria.”
Fredo's words awakened the dreamer, and Xia Feng instantly figured out where these Origin Stones came from.
Because of Victoria's tolerance towards infected people, a large number of stowaways come here every year, including infected people and ordinary people who stowaway for some reason, and the places where they land are undoubtedly along the coast of the southern region.
For example, in Sanna Town, Shendi City, or other small coastal towns, Source Stone is the most expensive thing in the world. At least a small number of infected people and criminals from all over the world have come into contact with Source Stone and smuggled it into the country. In the process, apart from money, the Source Stone is the most valuable thing to carry.
If it is an infected person who can activate the Origin Stone skills, then the Origin Stone is their talisman. Even for ordinary people, the Origin Stone is an international black commodity that can be exchanged for a large amount of money, such as the Platts brothers he met on that boat. , they brought a lot of Origin Stones with them during the smuggling process.
Even if on average only one person out of every 1,000 people smuggles in Source Stones, the inflow of Source Stones will be considerable in the long run. After these stowaways enter the country, they will gradually spread throughout the southern region like scattered ants. As time goes by, As time goes by, for some reason they may want to sell the Source Stone in their hands.
The Frido Chamber of Commerce's power spreads across many cities in the south, which has invisibly turned into a source stone purchase network. Each of these stowaways holds a small amount of source stones, and the quality is uneven. If they do not sell to Freddo Chamber of Commerce, then it will be difficult for them to sell.
Through some coercion and pressure, Fredo can receive these Origin Stones at a very low price. Although it is not as profitable as the Glasgow Gang's method of instantly obtaining a large number of Origin Stones, in the long run, this can be regarded as a huge profit. a stable channel.
After Fredo finished speaking, Xia Feng nodded thoughtfully.
"I understand, hey, that's it."
To put it simply, Frido's channel is free prostitution without any risk. The only risk is the escort during shipment, because the buyers are basically overseas.
And judging from Frido's demeanor, he cares very much about the Origin Stone business, and the reason is very simple.
The reason why the Glasgow Gang is an internationally renowned gang is because of their Origin Stone business, which allows an organization to obtain very large international strategic resources. Obviously, Fredo also wants his gang to live on the front line and connect with international standards. .
The current Frido Chamber of Commerce is only attached to the Victoria Empire, but if its strength is raised to an international level, it will have more choices when destruction comes. It can even break away from Victoria's regime and move to some remote small countries.
Xia Feng had probably guessed what Fredo was thinking. At the same time, he also discovered a very important point, that is, the source of the Origin Stone was not enough, that is, there was too little supply.
Xia Feng put his hands on the table and said.
"Boss, how often can we deliver goods?"
"A few months, not necessarily."
"So long."
Fredo sighed reluctantly.
"There is nothing we can do about it. The demand from buyers is huge at one time, and the risk of shipping in batches is too high."
Xia Feng saw that Frido was very eager to obtain a large amount of Origin Stones and expand his Origin Stone smuggling business, but his collection speed was too slow.
He might be able to take advantage of that.
"Boss, I think I can help you get the Origin Stone."
"You? If you have scattered Origin Stones, just hand them over, and the gang will buy them at the price."
"No, no, no, I mean, a lot of Origin Stones, a lot, a lot."
"kindness?"
Fredo raised his head and looked at Xia Feng with some confusion. Soon, he understood what Xia Feng meant.
"You wouldn't want to take Nanfeng to a natural disaster area like the Glasgow Gang."
"why not?"
Fredo gave a mocking smile.
"Xia Feng, I know you are very strong, but I advise you to give up this idea. You have never been to a natural disaster area and don't know how dangerous it is. Without strict division of labor and rich experience, it is impossible to survive in that kind of chaos. The Source Stone is obtained from a certain place. In a natural disaster area, human life is the cheapest thing."
Xia Feng was a little surprised.
"Boss, are you afraid that I will die?"
"I cherish talents very much. I don't want my capable subordinates to die in vain."
"I understand."
Xia Feng straightened up, and just before Nan Feng was about to take him out of the office to prepare for the mission, Xia Feng approached Fredo again with a mysterious look on his face and whispered.
"Boss, if I really get a lot of Origin Stones, what reward will you give me?"
Fredo glanced at him with narrowed eyes and said nothing.
Afterwards, the two left with a box of Origin Stones.
