Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead - Chapter 431
Chapter 431: Chapter 393, Let’s Play (Recommend and Subscribe…)_1
Fang Hao’s appearance broke the tranquility of the regional channel.
Whatever was being discussed before, instantly unified into a single theme.
“What? Big shot Fang Hao, planning to create a silicone girlfriend?”
“I don’t want a girlfriend, just use the leftovers to make me a flight cup.”
“Look closely, the big shot is talking about silicon sand, sand guys, you want to use it to create a girlfriend, are you not afraid of scratching yourself?”
“Don’t you know the saying that constant rubbing can turn an iron rod into a needle?”
“What sand, all I see is a girlfriend.”
“Selective blindness, huh….”
…
The channel gradually became lively, but the topic started to veer off.
Everyone started discussing girlfriends made from various materials, while Fang Hao’s purchase information was quickly swept off the screen.
People who came afterwards only knew about the discussion on girlfriends and had no idea about Fang Hao’s purchase information.
Just as Fang Hao was about to post again.
Ding!
A private chat notification suddenly sounded.
He immediately opened the private chat, a message from a stranger.
“Big shot Fang Hao, I have some silicon sand.”
This lord had a memorable name, Ji Mo.
Upon seeing that the other party had silicon sand, Fang Hao immediately asked, “How much?”
“Not much, but I have a silica sand mine here. If the price is right, I can arrange workers to mine it and ensure a continuous supply to you.” Ji Mo replied immediately.
Ji Mo found a silica sand mine near his territory early on.
He had even assigned workers to mine it.
But later he found that these white grains were of no use to his development.
Nor could he sell it in the channel.
So he stopped the mining operation, and some of the already mined inventory was used for paving roads.
Not much was left in the warehouse.
Today, he suddenly saw Fang Hao buying silicon sand in the channel.
Ji Mo was somewhat incredulous and confirmed several times whether Fang Hao was indeed buying silicon sand instead of silicone.
When he confirmed that he wasn’t mistaken, he couldn’t help but show a delighted expression.
Fang Hao was the big shot at the pinnacle of the pyramid in the entire region.
If he could establish a relationship with him, even a simple cooperation could make a steady profit.
So, while everyone was discussing girlfriend dolls in the channel, he directly messaged Fang Hao privately.
“Send over a guide for me to take a look first.” Fang Hao replied.
He had to confirm whether the other party was a fraud first.
“Alright! Is this what you’re looking for, Big shot Fang Hao?”
The guide was sent over immediately.
Fang Hao opened the guide to check its attributes.
[Silicon Sand]
[Category: Material]
(Description: White sand composed of quartz grains.)
It’s indeed silicon sand. Even if Fang Hao didn’t recognize it, the system information couldn’t be faked.
“How much do you have in your current inventory, and what do you want in exchange?” Fang Hao continued asking.
The other party also mentioned that there is a silica sand mine nearby his territory.
Which could provide a continuous output of silica sand.
This would be advantageous to Fang Hao’s glass production, but it depends on what the other party needs and whether the price is reasonable.
After Fang Hao asked, the other side fell silent.
After a while, Ji Mo sent a message.
“I have 20 units in my warehouse, and I want to exchange them for 10 of your [Double-Handed Light Crossbows].”
In this world, materials are defined by units.
For a material like silicon sand, one unit is about half a bag.
Double-Handed Light Crossbow is a green weapon that Fang Hao is selling in the channel.
Every single weapon is sold for 20 units of iron or 5 units of rare materials.
20 units of silicon sand, in exchange for 10 light crossbows, are equivalent to 200 units of iron.
Which means a 1:10 exchange ratio.
A bag of silicon sand is equivalent to 10 units of iron.
While Fang Hao does not know the difficulty level of mining silicon sand, iron is the most popular product in the channel. As currency cannot be used in the channel, iron units are used as an alternative.
At first, he bought flax from Deng Bin. The exchange ratio between flax and iron is 5:1.
5 units of flax can be exchanged for 1 unit of iron, with the other party also taking on the labor costs.
Fang Hao thought for a while and replied, “Iron is a hot commodity while silicon sand can’t be sold in the channel. If you’re willing to sell, I can swap 3 units of iron for 1 unit of silicon sand, you can think about it.”
Silicon sand may not sell well, but currently, there don’t seem to be a lot of people who have it.
It can be considered a rare processing material.
Plus, he needs to engage in regular cooperation with the other party. If he offers too low a price, it might deter the other party from mining silica sand.
After careful consideration, Fang Hao felt that 3 units of iron were a possible starting point for negotiations.
If the other party disagreed, he could raise the price.
Ji Mo fell silent for a while, but then finally agreed. “Big shot, the difficulty of mining this silica sand is not small… Even if I sell you the remaining inventory, it will be hard to continue mining at this price.”
“So, what’s your price? There are others selling silica sand mines, and I will choose the most favorable one for cooperation.” Fang Hao quickly replied.
Fang Hao’s words left Ji Mo with a difficult decision once again.
If there are others selling silica sand, he can’t just name his price arbitrarily. Moreover, a long-term cooperation with Fang Hao would greatly help his own development.
He bit the bullet and said, “Big Shot Feng Hao, my lowest price is 1 silicon sand for 5 iron. If you are willing to cooperate with me, I can guarantee a stable output of silicon sand.”
Fang Hao felt that the exchange ratio proposed by the other party was fairly reasonable.
At least for now, he hadn’t found a second person selling silicon sand.
