Chapter 1276 Internal and external demand, terrifying external consumption power!
I have to say.
When everyone walks into the Central Hotel where they are staying, they feel like they have traveled through time and space and are in another world.
Although it does not have the dazzling luxury of a modern top luxury five-star hotel, nor does it have detailed decorations carefully created by artists from all walks of life, it is enough to have enough light sources that seem to be free of charge and a subtle and elegant fragrance in the air.
It shows the nobility and extraordinaryness here.
Under the guidance of the waiter, Liu Zhi came to his room.
Located in 501 on the fifth floor.
When the door slowly opens from the outside in, the first thing that comes into view is the spacious and comfortable bed.
The sheets are as white as snow, the pillows are fluffy and soft, and the air is filled with the fragrance of orchids.
Compared with here, his residence in his own territory is like a pigsty, with no way to look at it.
After sending the waiter away, Liu Zhi gently closed the door with his front feet, then eagerly came to the bed with his back feet, throwing himself on the bed like a basketball, feeling the soft mattress and delicate bedding.
It has to be said that the bedding made of linen is not very comfortable, but compared to the thatch quilt made by the survivors, at this moment, it feels like the whole person is wrapped in gentle clouds.
He closed his eyes, breathed deeply, and felt the comfort and peace he had never experienced before.
And in these few minutes, it was like entering a wonderful dream.
He felt like he was a bird, flying freely in this free world.
I also felt relaxed and happy like never before, as if all the weight on my shoulders had been lifted.
This feeling lasted for a long time and gradually disappeared until Liu Zhi's face was already filled with a smile of satisfaction and happiness.
Only then did he begin to notice other facilities in the room.
The bathroom is spacious and bright, about eight square meters, and the decoration is higher-grade than the lord's room.
All kinds of toiletries are available on the sink.
Although they are all reusable, how many people in this damn wasteland care about this?
Outside the bathroom, framed photos hang in a straight line on the wall, adding a bit of cultural flavor to the entire room.
Liu Zhi looked around intently and was shocked to find that there were a total of sixteen photos from the entrance to the window.
It exactly corresponds to the monthly changes in the Tianyuan territory from February to now in the wasteland.
He walked step by step, his eyes lingering on each photo, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart.
The scenes in the photos range from the original dilapidated tile-roofed village with nothing, to the simple village dormitories paved with colored steel, to the now vibrant town that is beginning to take shape. Each picture witnesses the struggle and growth of the territory.
Piecing together an extraordinary period of time.
The development here is so fast and the changes are so drastic that every month can almost be described as earth-shaking.
Of course, because there were no cameras in the early days, the photos on the wall in the first few months were all hand-drawn and printed.
But it is this change in photo style that highlights the difficulty of this journey.
"It seems like you are witnessing history?"
Liu Zhi whispered to himself, walked slowly along the photo wall to the window, and looked at the night of Hope Town.
At this time, the rain outside the window seemed to be a little more intense, and the raindrops knocked on the window intensively, making a crisp sound.
The buildings in the distance were looming in the rain, and the lights on the streets were wet by the rain, giving off a hazy and warm light.
If it were in the territory of the Red Flower Gang, it would definitely be a sleepless night.
Most people worry about whether the fields created by spring sowing will be affected by heavy rains.
The remaining few people need to pay attention to drainage issues in gathering areas to ensure that waterlogging does not occur.
But here, everything seems so quiet and peaceful, as if the sound of rain is also singing praises to this land.
Um.
Liu Zhi took a deep look at the rainy night outside the window for a few more times, then gently closed the curtains, turned around and went back to the bed to lie down.
He understood that no matter how he excused himself, this moment would always be engraved in his memory and become one of the most unforgettable experiences in his life.
What he has to do now is very simple.
Just close your eyes, let your thoughts drift in the sound of rain, and gradually fall into sleep.
Boom.
The late night sky seemed to be torn apart, and the rumble of thunder continued to echo in the night sky.
The rain became more and more violent, and the heavy rain hit the ground hard, causing splashes of water.
In the second half of the night, the continuous muffled thunder seemed to be venting some kind of emotion, making the whole night full of tension and uneasiness.
But perhaps because he was too tired from the journey, Liu Zhi rarely slept soundly.
Of course, the sound of footsteps in the corridor from time to time woke him up several times in the first half of the night, and he was startled to think that an enemy had touched the door.
It wasn't until I realized that this place was in Tianyuan Territory, in the prosperous Central Hotel of Hope Town, that the worry quickly subsided and turned into a comfortable feeling of peace of mind.
Seven o'clock in the morning.
The biological clock woke Liu Zhi up on time.
Because it was the first day he came to Tianyuan Territory, he did not dare to stay in bed. Instead, he quickly got up, opened the curtains, and pushed the window open a gap.
In an instant, a burst of fresh air hit my face, carrying the earthy fragrance after the rain and the faint fragrance of grass and trees.
Liu Zhi looked out the window and saw that there were still some traces of wetness on the ground, as if to tell of the violent rainstorm last night. However, the sky had cleared up and there was no trace of dark clouds anymore.
"Yeah, the rain stopped!"
The rising sun in the sky shuttles through the gaps in the clouds, casting a ray of golden light onto the earth.
Liu Zhi took a deep breath and felt refreshed.
After a good night's sleep and the feeling of relief after the rain, it seemed like all the fatigue and sorrow had been washed away at this moment.
But when he finished washing, opened the door and walked out, he frowned involuntarily.
The people living on this floor are all members of the Red Flower Gang.
But it's almost eight o'clock, and he's the only one getting up?
"These guys are so crazy!"
Liu Zhi cursed angrily, walked to room 502 next door and started knocking on the door.
After nearly half a minute, the door slowly opened from the inside, revealing the tired sleeping face of deputy team leader ‘Zhang Yuan’.
"What time is it? What do you think?"
Gu Gu
Before he finished speaking, Liu Zhi's stomach growled involuntarily when he smelled the smell coming from inside.
What's going on?
Although he has been away from the earth for more than a year, the strong smell of barbecue beer still reminds him of the good times in the past.
Liu Zhi was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted.
He stared at Zhang Yuan with wide eyes, but only saw an awkward smile on the other person's face.
"Where did it come from? What did you do last night?" Liu Zhi couldn't help but asked in a cold voice.
"Well, everyone was too excited to sleep last night, so we decided to go out for a stroll in the town. When we went out, we happened to see a barbecue stall, so we decided to buy some barbecue and beer and come back to celebrate." Zhang Yuan scratched his head, a little confused.
He explained sheepishly, "I didn't expect that I accidentally played until late at night, so I couldn't get up this morning."
"But boss, we didn't eat alone. We knocked on your door, but you didn't respond!"
"ah?"
After hearing this, Liu Zhi suddenly felt speechless.
Last night, he was confused and heard a thumping sound, but there was thunder rolling at that time. He thought it was the thunder outside and didn't pay attention. Unexpectedly, it was these guys who went out to have fun at night?
He took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions. Then he asked again: "How many people went?"
"Almost everyone went except you." Zhang Yuan's voice became smaller and smaller. Apparently he knew that the behavior of himself and others was a bit excessive, and he did not dare to look Liu Zhi in the eyes.
"How much did it cost?"
Liu Zhi asked again, trying to calm down his inner emotions, and secretly estimated a number in his mind.
Beer, barbecue, these things are not cheap on earth, and the per capita consumption starts at least 180.
There are nearly a hundred people in the Honghua Gang. If everyone except him goes,
"It cost one hundred and thirty Tianyuan copper coins."
"What, are you crazy?" For a moment, Liu Zhi almost fainted from anger.
Before they went out, they only brought a total of two hundred golden beans, equivalent to about five kilograms of gold.
These guys spent sixty-nine on one night out
"Wait a minute. You're talking about Tianyuan copper coins, not golden beans?"
According to the exchange rate I inquired with the sailor yesterday, one gold bean can be exchanged for about fifty copper coins.
One hundred and thirty, that is less than three golden beans.
Damn it, this little money can allow nearly a hundred people to have a party all night, right?
Faced with Liu Zhi's doubts, Zhang Heng nodded and affirmed: "Don't worry, boss, we are not stupid. If we were given one hundred and thirty golden beans, we wouldn't dare to spend them even if we were beaten to death."
"And when we went to exchange it last night, we were told that outsiders could exchange one golden bean for 80 Tianyuan copper coins, so we just spent it."
"One and a half?"
hiss.
After calculating this account, Liu Zhi couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
I originally thought that the prices disclosed by the sailor yesterday were low enough, but I didn't expect that the real situation was even more shocking.
Their golden beans are like a huge fortune here.
But Liu Zhi forgot one thing.
Yesterday's meat buns were real hard currency. If you eat three of them, you can survive a whole day of farm work, so they are naturally expensive.
But barbecue is not necessarily all meat dishes. Many vegetarian dishes produced in greenhouses are not valuable due to supply and demand. Grill them on the fire and sprinkle with seasonings, and two skewers will only sell for one iron coin.
And beer is even cheaper.
Most of the raw materials for brewing are rotten grains and fruits, and the residents of Tianyuan Territory are not willing to pay for them at all.
Only the foreign population like them would be so surprised and willing to use precious resources to replace these low-value "horse urine".
Thinking of this, Liu Zhi couldn't help but feel dumbfounded.
Although these guys' presumptuousness last night still made him a little angry, but considering the moderate spending, at least he got a better understanding of the price and consumption level of Tianyuan Territory from the side.
This point undoubtedly has important reference value for their next trading plan.
"Let's go in and talk!"
Tianyuan Underground City.
In the manager's office.
"Lord, this is the information about the four territories that arrived yesterday. Please take a look."
Qiao Yuansheng took a piece of compiled information, opened the door and walked in, subconsciously speaking.
Unexpectedly, Sumo was not sitting behind the desk, but sitting leisurely on the sofa in the reception area, staring at the No. 0 transmission projection on the wall.
"Leave it there, I'll look at it later."
He said without turning his head, and Sumo stared at the changes in the screen with great interest, while the sound transmitted by the zero aggregation could still be heard in his ears.
If the huge Tianyuan territory wants to achieve sustained prosperity and development, it is far from enough to rely solely on the surrounding Qinggang City.
Although there are fully two million gophers in the city, less than one percent have real spending power.
In every shelter, the manager has more than 90% of the wealth and more than 99% of the control.
Especially those shelters in the southern suburbs, even though they have tens of thousands of people inside.
The number of people who are truly qualified to spend money in Tianyuan Alliance definitely does not exceed double digits.
Under such circumstances, it is simply impossible to sell some cheap industrial products and small commodity resources.
Therefore, targeting the territories created by players on Earth and opening up markets from them must be the main task of Tianyuan Territory in the next period of time.
"It's so delicious. Oh my god, you can have this hundred-flavor soup for just one copper coin!"
"Kid, drink slowly, don't choke. Damn it, someone come and give him a pat on the back!"
"Uncle, bring me ten steamed buns with sauce and meat filling. What, are you afraid that I won't be able to finish them all and waste them? Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, I can eat them all even if I am exhausted today!"
"What kind of fruit and grass only cost six iron coins? Give us three frames!"
"You can buy one of these towels for only two copper coins. If you buy three, you will get one for free?"
"Fuck, such a thick quilt only costs thirty copper coins. What, you also provide appointment delivery service, as long as the single purchase reaches more than one million copper coins? Don't you need to make money?"
"This is the three-hundred-kilometer short-distance convenient communicator. The lord has told us many times before, but we didn't expect that you can buy one here for fifty copper coins!"
"."
To be fair, the prices for all kinds of goods are not cheap.
Basically, the profit of each item can reach more than 50%, or even higher, which is definitely a huge profit.
However, don’t forget that such huge profits are based on the already complete light industry cluster in Tianyuan Territory. From raw material procurement, production and processing to sales and distribution, efficient and low-cost industries have long been formed in the territory.
chain.
In comparison, in other places, let alone small territories with no foundation like the Honghua Gang, even those large territories with a population of over one million, the cost of each product is higher than the selling price in the Tianyuan territory.
!
"This is the difference between internal and external demand. For sales in and around the territory, there will never be an order of 100,000 levels."
"But for these foreign residents, 100,000 is just a starting number."
As Liu Zhi made an appointment with the delivery service, he placed an order of 100,000 quilts without hesitation, and Su Mo couldn't help laughing.
A quilt costs 30 copper coins, which is worthless.
But one hundred thousand beds are worth three million copper coins and eight hundred kilograms of gold!
This is definitely a large amount for Tianyuan Territory, whose monthly GDP has just stabilized at tens of millions.
It seems that yesterday's investment was still useful. It only cost a few hundred copper coins to gain the absolute trust of these people.
If every territory has such consumption power, why worry about Tianyuan not being prosperous?
