Plane Store: I rely on five-star reviews to become rich and live forever

Chapter 1016 I Treat the Brave One to Afternoon Tea 51

Someone quietly touched his equipment, then looked at the dragon egg in his backpack, with a hesitant look on his face.

I'm glad I haven't sold my equipment yet.

He didn't want to be the next person to die, as his equipment wasn't even worth it.

There are also people who don't raise dragon eggs themselves, but their teammates who enter the dungeon together are raising them. At this time, they feel their scalp tingling and suddenly realize that they should care about the situation of their teammates.

When Xie Hanqiu and Xie Er saw this scene, they couldn't help but quicken their pace.

"Go back to the meeting." Xie Hanqiu's voice was colder and more urgent than before.

Xie Er nodded silently and followed her.

When they returned to the Xie Clan Guild’s headquarters, the conference room was already filled with key members who had been suddenly summoned.

Xie Hanqiu stood in the main seat, his eyes sweeping over everyone present.

"…This is what happened today when the vice president and I were outside. I hope this kind of thing won't happen again in our guild."

"President," a member in a black robe stood up, "Please rest assured that no one in our guild is currently crazy about chasing dragon eggs."

Perhaps influenced by the president and vice president, everyone saw Xie Hanqiu giving away the dragon egg without a second thought. After private consideration, they thought it would be better to put the resources into their own equipment.

Even if some people wanted to raise dragon eggs, they did not act immediately, but planned to wait and see.

Anyway, everyone in the Xie Guild is rich, so it is not impossible for them to catch up in one go after others have gained experience.

Precisely because everyone was so calm and there was no internal comparison, we have been able to get through this until now, and I feel like I have escaped a disaster.

However, the Xie's Guild could not be separated from the entire player community and also faced the same challenges brought about by the dragon egg craze:

"President, the price of magic resources has risen too much now."

"specific situation?"

"The price of a bottle of ordinary life potion has increased from five silver coins to fifty silver coins. The price of a magic potion has increased fivefold. Not to mention the price of magic crystals, which have increased by more than ten or twenty times."

Another member added: "Many people spend their money on dragon eggs, and there are fewer and fewer magical resources on the market."

"Although our guild doesn't raise dragon eggs very often, the current high prices have even reduced the number of times we go out to kill monsters, and the speed of upgrading and collecting materials has also been greatly reduced. I'm worried that this will become a vicious cycle."

"Yes, the cost of crafting equipment has also increased several times. There are still many people in our guild who haven't worn the level 95 purple equipment yet."

There were complaints all over the tent.

Xie Hanqiu raised his hand and everyone fell silent.

"I need more detailed data on the specific situation of each channel."

Her voice was not loud, but it made everyone hold their breath and listen to her words, "Start with the Magic Chamber of Commerce."

The black-robed wizard opened his notebook and began to read them out one by one.

There are many chambers of commerce on the NPC side, such as the Magic Chamber of Commerce, the Goblin Chamber of Commerce, the Royal Chambers of Commerce of the major kingdoms, etc.

“…they have all gone up a lot, so buying in bulk is not recommended.”

“What about other small vendors and retail traders?”

"They fluctuate around two gold coins."

Xie Hanqiu nodded, "Where's the Dragon Breath Ice Room?"

The subordinate who answered was stunned and blinked.

In everyone's perception, the price of the Dragon's Breath Ice Room has always been a bit expensive, and everyone pays more attention to its additional one-time instant skills. Other magic enhancements can be purchased as potions as substitutes.

Now I suddenly realized that everyone is raising their prices except Longxi Ice House, which has not increased its prices at all. Instead, it seems to be very cheap and very conscientious.

A key member recalled: "I went to buy an ice drink last week and took a look at the price list.

“There’s a drink that can continuously replenish blood called coconut water. I remember it cost ten silver coins.

"The milky green one that continues to add blue is only eight silver coins."

There was a cry of surprise in the tent.

Xie Hanqiu raised the corners of his lips slightly, "It seems that we have found a solution."

She stood up, walked to the map hanging on the wall, and pointed to the center of the Anas Desert.

"Our current range of activities is right here. It only takes half an hour at most to get from any monster spawning point to the Dragon Breath Ice Room.

“The drinks at Dragon Breath Ice House are valid for four to six hours, which is more than enough.

"Besides, have you forgotten? We are also one of the distributors of her semi-finished products, and the shelf life of semi-finished products is longer."

The core members' eyes lit up.

"Yeah, why didn't we think of this!"

"It's just that those drinks are so delicious that it's hard to regard them as medicines."

Xie Hanqiu looked at Xie Er and said, "Go and notify the other guilds and arrange a time to discuss the dragon egg."

Xie Er nodded, turned and left.

In less than two hours, representatives from all the major guilds gathered at the Xie Guild’s headquarters.

Xie Hanqiu sat very upright with a sharp gaze. No one dared to look down on her because of her youth.

"I must solemnly remind everyone that the dragon egg craze is destroying our foundation."

"Oh, the president is being too serious." A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses waved his hand, "Players raise dragon eggs to become stronger."

"But we haven't seen the so-called 'strengthening' results, but prices around the world are spiraling out of control."

"Don't worry too much, the market will naturally balance it out."

Xie Hanqiu took a deep breath and said, "Even if many expert players lose everything and become incapable of fighting, you still don't care?"

"We must respect players' freedom of choice."

Xie Hanqiu sneered, "Last month, 237 players died because of the dragon egg. Only twelve days have passed this month, and the death toll has reached 196.

"Among these people, some starved to death, and some died in the wild due to lack of equipment and medicine."

Seeing the man with gold-rimmed glasses trying to open his mouth, Xie Hanqiu didn't give him the chance at all: "Don't say that poor people and low-level players have nothing to do with us.

"Many of those people are members of our guilds, and their levels are all above level 90. Otherwise, they would not be able to clear the dungeon and obtain the dragon egg."

“In addition, the average level increase rate of our players has dropped from 0.8 levels per week to 0.3 levels per week.

"The copy clearance rate dropped from 60% to 35%."

These data are very easy to obtain for players of Interstellar Blue Star. Just input the public data of the game system into a simple optical computer and calculate it, and the data will come out immediately.

The conference room was silent for a few seconds.

Lou Xu was the first to say: "It's time for us to control prices."

"The Penglai Guild seconded the motion!"

"Emei Guild agrees!"

Representatives from other guilds looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Well..." The man with gold-rimmed glasses pushed up his glasses, "The market economy must develop step by step..."

"Gradually?" Lou Xu sneered, "Why didn't your guild take a step-by-step approach when hoarding goods and driving up prices?"

"That's what Guild President Lou said," another representative said, "We also want to allow more players to hatch dragon eggs..."

Wu Yao was so angry that his face turned red. He leaned close to Xie Er's ear and whispered, "Bullshit! They spent the most money on dragon eggs, so they have the highest sunk cost!"

Xie Er made a “tsk” sound.

"Everyone," Xie Hanqiu's voice was still cold, "You can continue to deceive yourselves, but please remember, when players no longer have the ability to fight against the BOSS, what is the meaning of the dragon eggs in your hands?"

The conference room fell silent.

After a long time, someone sighed and said, "So what do you think we should do?"
