The Next Step in the Main World

Then he looked at the bottom, a single-person meal... priced at 990,000.

The Miracle Package for Two is priced at 1.99 million.

He suddenly realized that what he had seen before was really cheap.

Is a meal costing 1.99 million yuan reasonable?

So he ordered a Mysterious Ocean Set Meal.

Then the dishes were served.

One dish after another, and I have to admit, the service was impeccable. Moreover, because of the addition of Water of Purification, these dishes brought a strange sense of pleasure after eating them.

Although it feels expensive, when you think about it, isn't this store all about providing service and a high-class atmosphere? With this kind of experience and this kind of sophistication, the price is really not a big deal.

More than ten kilometers away, at home.

Ye Qian couldn't help but laugh out loud.

They're making a killing! That's what you call exorbitant profits.

Honestly, these ingredients aren't cheap; even in another world, they're selected from the very best. But compared to the selling price, their costs are pitifully low.

Because the prices are too high, she wouldn't even consider lower-tier customers.

That means the minimum spend upon entry is 2000, and even the lowest-end option costs at least 2000.

Each private room features ruby and sapphire sculptures, and even the chopsticks used are gold-plated; no corners are cut.

Since she made a profit of 300,000 on the first day of opening the store, Ye Qian did not hesitate to raise an additional 30 gold coins on the second day and used them all to replace some brass paintings with gold paintings.

The number of customers afterward is probably not as high as on the first day, but the shop's costs are not high to begin with, so it's like a steady stream of income.

Ye Qian began recruiting pretty waitresses, so that when the number of members in the Dusk team increased, they could be replaced entirely with her own people.

"Very good, please invite Ye Yan to eat."

Vier immediately contacted Ye Yan.

Before long, the little girl in the pretty dress ran over happily.

"Little Vier's shop is great!"

"Hehe, come sit with me, I've saved the best for you."

Invite the other party to sit in the best treasure chest, and soon Miss No. 27, who was playing the role of a waitress, began to serve delicious food.

"This is steak, have a taste," Vier gestured to the other person.

This was the first time Ye Yan had ever tasted such exquisite beef. She opened her mouth and gently bit down, and the rich aroma immediately filled her entire mouth.

"That's great!"

"Hmph, isn't my shop pretty good?" Vier proudly raised her head.

"It's really good, but isn't it too expensive? Will it really do any business if it keeps operating like this?" Ye Yan couldn't help but have doubts.

"You don't need to worry about that. I will gradually promote this place as the most upscale restaurant in Konghai City. As long as we have that reputation, people will come here to treat us to meals."

There are no great nobles in this city, but there are some lesser nobles. Many of them haven't come yet, but once the city's reputation spreads, they will definitely want to come and experience it eventually.

The feeling of relaxation brought by the Water of Purification while eating it would make many wealthy people want to experience it again.

As for the official departments of Konghai City, they certainly support this place, since Ye Qian pays a lot of taxes.

"Okay, I'll come here often from now on. Vier, you have to keep treating me!"

"No problem." The white-haired girl nodded with a smile, "You won't need to come in person anymore. I'll have someone deliver the food to you directly."

"Well, but more important than food is that Vier comes to play with me in person."

"Whee."

Back in the villa, Ye Qian No. 2 yawned, feeling much more relaxed at the thought that she wouldn't have to worry about making money for the time being.

"Let's send two Cannon Fodder Group members to Lianwen City to get a quick look at the situation, so they can be mentally prepared."

The two Cannon Fodder Misses immediately prepared to set off.

Chapter 114 The Next Step for the Main World

Time quickly came to the second Dusk Gathering.

At this gathering, Zhiyi'er was in a worse state of mind than last time, because he could increasingly feel the pressure from the Holy See's higher-ups.

Throughout the party, Miss Dusk remained silent, leaving the transactions to her subordinates.

After the meeting ended, facing Miss Dusk who announced the adjournment and brought everything to a close, Zhiyi'er wondered if the other party had seen through her thoughts at a glance.

These past few days, Ye Qian has truly experienced how quickly the Dusk Organization extracts Life Energy. If things stabilize, she could even create a LV20 clone in just a few days, and then advance to become another advanced user.

However, she still maintained a degree of restraint, reserving only about half of her resources to enhance her lower-level vital bodies, and the other half to enhance the bodies of those who had already advanced, such as Vier and Ye Qian No. 2. Her purpose in doing so was to achieve advancement quickly and thus attain Mithril Rank strength as soon as possible.

As she was preparing, a summons from the Player System suddenly descended.

"The Main World?"

I don't know if it's true what Chen Ning said, but the system does seem to be increasingly inclined to pull people into the Main World for development.

Ye Qian hadn't thought much about this before, but now she started to wonder if it meant the system would have a much lower development cost through the Main World.

Ye Qian, in particular, who had awakened his Purification potential through the system, was increasingly feeling that his talent wasn't simply bestowed by the Player System, but rather that it unleashed his own potential. However, upon closer examination, there was still some lack of evidence.

The scene shifted, and Ye Qian No. 2 arrived at the home base.

Lan Xinyu stretched happily, opened her arms and looked up at the sky.

Chen Ning, as always, immediately began to inspect the entire territory upon arrival.

"Looks like we've been attacked quite a bit lately."

The main problem lies in the direction near the forest, where the enemies are mostly Goblin.

The Black Shield Heavy Infantry, an elite unit, is also very effective, maintaining an excellent casualty ratio. Basically, the result of the battle is that they give the Goblin troops a sound beating.

The ancient heroine Italin, the blonde beauty, almost immediately came over and bowed to Ye Qian.

"Master, I have already processed most of the corpses, and those that have been there for a long time have been pickled."

"Well done, my warrior." Ye Qian immediately praised the beautiful woman.

"It's my pleasure."

"Come on, let's get to work! Ye Qian, your Purification is about to begin again!" Lan Xinyu excitedly jumped into the pile of corpses next to her and began to help clean the internal organs.

Yes, we need to prepare to hang things up to sell for money.

Although some time has passed, the overall situation on site is still good; at least it hasn't become a complete mess.

At this moment, everyone seemed very confident and couldn't wait to gather the troops and prepare for the expedition.

"This time, our army is likely to expand significantly. Chen Ning, Lan Xinyu, don't rush to work. Let's have a combat meeting first and prepare to choose an enemy to attack."

Ye Qian immediately called out to her two teammates.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the Black Shield Infantry only has a little over 400 men now. At the current rate of development, they will soon be able to build a group of several thousand men.

There's nothing we can do; Ye Qian's earning speed is just too fast.

"A war council? It certainly should be discussed." Chen Ning took the initiative to walk over and sit down next to him.

"I think the current development speed is very fast. When the scale reaches one or two thousand or more, it will be easy for the gnolls to find out if we go to war with the Gnoll Goblin. Even if those creatures are very wary of humans, they were driven in by humans after all. If they are provoked and suddenly gather to deal with us, we will not be able to withstand it." Ye Qian looked very serious.

After hearing this, Chen Ning also felt that it made a lot of sense.

Although current intelligence suggests that the Gnoll are still holed up in their defensive lines, they are capable of anything when pushed to the limit.

"So, what are your thoughts..."

"We won't provoke the Gnoll in the northwest at all, and we'll focus our expansion on the northeast. According to previous intelligence, there are many monsters in the mountains next to the dense forest in the northeast, and a considerable number of them are above level 20. We can send out some small teams to get closer and hunt some of these creatures." Ye Qian raised her hand. "The higher the level of the monster, the higher the probability of it dropping advanced building blueprints. As long as I handle the final blow, we might soon have powerful units."

"I see, so you're adding insult to injury. I support Ye Qian's idea." Lan Xinyu put her hands on her hips and nodded. "From my personal point of view, if we're sending teams to mountainous areas, we don't need anyone to lead them. There's no need for ancient heroes either. We can let the soldiers do it on their own."

Chen Ning looked at him with surprise, then finally nodded. "I think it's okay."

"OK".

[Resolution: Joint strategy, northeast direction.]

[Objective: Focus the attack on the northeast direction (excluding the mountains), targeting Goblin and the beasts within them. Send out separate exploration teams to search for any beasts that may be lurking within the mountains, capture them alive, and deliver Ye Qian for the final blow.]

[1. An order from the beautiful girl Ye Qian, +10]

[2. Correct decision, +10]

[3. Difficult mission, -30]

[4. Important Order, -60]

5. Teamwork, -10

[A total of 80 Resolution Points were consumed.]

[This resolution consumes 10 Resolution Points for each day it remains in effect.]

[System suggestion: This can be issued.]

Ye Qian now has as many as 350 Resolution Points. Lan Xinyu contributed quite a few to Jiojio last time, cough cough. Anyway, the order has been issued.

Looking at the interface, I can see that the resolutions in the entire territory are already in effect.

"Well then, let's make the final preparations before setting out. The group of Intermediate Rank blacksmiths we recruited earlier are still working. I'll go see if there's any new equipment."

Ye Qian ran to the blacksmith shop and took a look. Unexpectedly, she saw another 150 sets of Elite Black Shield Heavy Infantry armor.

She immediately recruited 150 more people, and then recruited even more blacksmiths.

Efficiency is the top priority now. In order to accelerate development, Ye Qian doesn't even mind spending a little more money to speed things up.

Moreover, she herself has high expectations for the army here, and the powerful military force developed in the Main World can also be deployed to the Kalu World.

Of course, in terms of both scale and true foundation, those worlds cannot compare to the Main World. Because, like reality, the Main World is beyond imagination in its scale and likely possesses a considerably high level of power.

After a busy half-day, the group had finished processing all the meat that was to be hung in the market. Ye Qian had originally thought about whether to buy some Pollution meat from the market to Purification it so that she could make more money, but now she found that the meat she had hung in the market was not selling as quickly as she had expected.

In other words, there is absolutely no need to act as a middleman.

On the contrary, it is not impossible to start training blacksmiths at this time.

Although the cost of training a blacksmith is high, the profits generated by the final product are enough to offset all the costs.

"I think I'll stick to building for farmers."

After some calculations, it turns out we still have to recruit farmers.

[Building: Farmhouse (White)]

[Available to recruit: Farmer LV1]

[Recruitment Price: 1 Silver]

"I never expected that a farmer with little ability would need 1 silver coin in cost."

The price was indeed expensive, but it didn't matter to Ye Qian. In fact, the blueprints for the peasant building only cost a little over 20 silver coins, and the construction process was very easy.

Once the building appeared, she immediately recruited 300 people and brought them all to the blacksmith shop next door, clearing out a space for several Intermediate Rank blacksmiths to teach them.

"Sir blacksmith, how long will it take? Do they have the necessary forging skills?" Ye Qian asked with a smile.

"If it's just to the point where you can forge iron, a day or two will suffice. But to become a junior blacksmith, you need to train day after day. If you can forge a full load every day, then these people will reach your requirements in no time. As for the Intermediate Rank, that depends on talent and luck."

"All right."

Although the cost was high and the timeframe was long, Ye Qian still allowed these 300 people to study.

Black Shield Heavy Infantry will definitely become the main force of the army in the future, Ye Qian felt that it would be worthwhile to train more blacksmiths.

Then she managed to contact Cherry using Amia's authority and transferred some people to her side.
