117: Dream

After Liu Yan finished speaking, the Old Man looked troubled.

He had considered this idea before; while it would greatly improve efficiency, it was too easy to offend people.

"This... isn't this monopolizing the market...?"

"Exactly," Liu Yan nodded naturally, not seeing any problem with it.

"You shouldn't need me to calculate the money you've made from me, right?"

"The reason I chose you, besides our previous cooperation, is for one more thing."

"I need you to help me monopolize the buying and selling of all goods in the Third District."

"We'll monopolize weapons, medicine, miscellaneous items, and armor—everything."

The Old Man's eyes widened as he scrutinized Liu Yan, who appeared very honest and upright.

"Are you afraid I've lived too long?"

"If I squeeze out all my competitors, they'll gang up and retaliate against me!"

Liu Yan didn't answer; he just pointed to Zhao Chuang next to him.

"Then we'll use force. In any case, we must monopolize it."

"If you don't do it, I'll find someone else, and then your source of wealth will be cut off too."

The Old Man was silent for a moment this time, looking Zhao Chuang up and down.

Of course, he wanted to do it, but he was a bit scared.

Liu Yan saw the Old Man's hesitation and picked up a Level 4 armor from the ground.

"Zhao Chuang, punch it."

Bang!!!

It was an almost 0-frame startup, even Liu Yan was slightly startled; he had intended to place it on the ground properly.

But before it could be put down, Zhao Chuang's fist transformed into a dragon claw and punched it.

Liu Yan took out the steel plates from inside the Level 4 armor, one by one, and placed them in front of the Old Man.

Everyone at the Recycling Stall stared at the shattered steel plates, their pupils shaking wildly!

"Damn it, we must monopolize!"

"My dear granddaughter, go tell the other vendors that the supply model is stopping; we will only sell to operatives!"

Liu Yan suddenly added a sentence.

"All prices will be reduced by 10%, and new customers get 15% off their first purchase."

Just as the Old Man was about to object, he understood what Liu Yan was going to do.

Use the simplest and most brutal price war to exhaust all competitors, then monopolize the market, and then raise prices back up.

However, this method requires extremely strong capital support.

And Liu Yan, coincidentally, had that capability.

"I will gradually buy out all the equipment from other vendors."

"Remember, retail only, absolutely no wholesale."

The Old Man at the Recycling Stall nodded heavily.

At the same time, he secretly congratulated himself.

Fortunately, Liu Yan's first business deal was with him.

He recalled that back then, his place was just an ordinary Recycling Stall.

But soon, his place would become the only collection store in the Third District!

Liu Yan's purpose in doing this was also very simple.

Using this method, he would gradually monopolize all good weapons, Level 5 armor, and high-level bullets into his own hands.

Then distribute them to the Soldiers below.

By then, the output in the operational areas would gradually fail to keep up with consumption, and everyone would be forced to buy Level 4 armor and Level 4 bullets at high prices.

And at that time, his own Level 5 equipped Soldiers, firing Level 5 bullets, would each be like a BOSS.

And there were now about twenty thousand such BOSSes.

And all these actions were due to the fact that there was no so-called system replenishment in the Third District!

It only needed a little time for everyone's equipment level in the Third District to decline, while his remained unchanged!

Although doing this would ultimately harm other operatives.

However, if high-level equipment were distributed among all operatives, then situations where everyone harbored ulterior motives would arise.

Anyone could imagine that various countries would want to contend for or monopolize the abundant resources in the Third District.

Including some organizations, because at that time, whoever had more resources in the Third District could raise a larger team.

That way, when the day of descent arrived, a phenomenon would occur.

Under the bombardment of Hafke and Asara, human nations would also form various forces to participate.

The result then would be disunity, ultimately leading to everyone dying in internal strife.

Sayid had said that to end a war, one side must be completely dismantled.

What Liu Yan wanted to do was to concentrate all equipment on the Asara Soldiers.

After all, Asara Soldiers could be made to follow his commands completely.

By concentrating all the human side's equipment and resources on himself and the Soldiers, he could achieve a 1+1 > 2 effect.

This way, there would be no multi-party confrontation, merely himself against the entire Hafke.

After giving instructions to the Old Man, Liu Yan and his two companions left the Recycling Stall and returned to the company through the portal.

Fuji's company couldn't provide accommodation, so Liu Yan and Zhao Chuang could only return to their respective homes.

After returning home, Liu Yan lay on his bed and looked at the big red items in his quantum storage.

The drop rate that afternoon was not low; he almost got big red items in every round.

But specifically, Liu Yan still hadn't found a resuscitation ventilator.

This had a slight impact on Liu Yan's state of mind.

Chen Yu's ability to revive must mean that his company had found a resuscitation ventilator.

"Could it be that a high hidden score prevents drops?"

Thinking this, Liu Yan couldn't help but laugh.

When playing games before, whenever he saw Cai Ning getting drops and he himself only got ox horns from the safe, Liu Yan would comfort himself in this way.

Even under Cai Ning's taunts, Liu Yan would retort, not to be outdone, that the tang peoples drop rate was high.

"resuscitation ventilator, when will it finally drop?"

With a longing for the resuscitation ventilator, Liu Yan slowly fell asleep.

In his dream, Liu Yan appeared in a map entirely made of medical supply piles.

Every time he opened one, there would be the sound effect of a big red item dropping, and they were all resuscitation ventilators... Early the next morning.

"Why are we going straight into Bakshi this early today?" Fuji looked at Liu Yan in confusion.

Usually, the three of them would first go to farm Soldiers, and then in the afternoon, they would make money by finding special items.

But this morning, Liu Yan, with shining eyes, urged the two of them to quickly go into Bakshi with him.

"Hurry, hurry, Zhao Chuang, eat quickly, we're leaving after you finish."

"Brother Ji, I dreamed last night, I dreamed of hundreds of resuscitation ventilators!"

"This is a good omen! We'll definitely get a resuscitation ventilator today!"

Zhao Chuang quickly slurped down his noodles, wiped his mouth, and stood up next to Liu Yan, also looking expectant.

"I say, Old Chuang, why are you getting excited?" Fuji looked at the two of them speechless.

"Aren't dreams usually the opposite?"
