"oh?"
Delevingne's attitude was unexpected by Qi Ying.
It stands to reason that as a business force, Heitang will definitely put its own interests first. What's more, in cooperation, Heitang occupies an absolutely dominant position. In comparison, Heitang is just a little ant. .
Even though he has a unique magic painting technique, Heitang will not give in to such an extent!
but.
Since it was Heitang's proposal that was beneficial to him, Qi Ying would certainly not refuse.
"Mr. Delevingne, you should know that based on the sensation caused by the few treasures just now, the magic pattern treasures drawn by me can be sold for a very considerable price no matter how they are used, right?"
"yes."
Draven nodded.
"But since I am a privileged person of Heitang and have enjoyed the countless benefits provided by Heitang, I am definitely willing to cooperate with Heitang first. So, do you think this is okay? I will provide Heitang with a certain amount from time to time. The magic pattern treasure will be auctioned by Heitang on behalf of him, and we will agree on a ratio for the share of the proceeds from the auction. For example, how about eight to two? What I get is eight, and Heitang’s income is two."
When Qi Ying proposed the ratio of eight to two, he hesitated.
Eight to two. Ordinary consignment auctions are almost at this ratio, but because the things used by Qi Ying to paint the demons are all provided by Heitang for free, the cost of the treasures, magic cores, and other materials are all listed there. After all, the ratio of eight to two is also appropriate. It can satisfy its own interests to the maximum extent. At the same time, the black hall can also earn some profits from it, so that it will not have to pay for it.
"Can."
Draven agreed readily.
"However." Delevingne changed the topic, "Have you ever considered such an issue?"
"what is the problem?"
"Your treasure is now expensive. On the one hand, it is because it is indeed very powerful. On the other hand, it is because of its rarity, which leads to a premium! In fact, the price of a treasure with such power in the auction house is not even lower than the few pieces it has today. It will be half of the auction price of the treasure, or even less. If you keep offering treasure auctions, it will inevitably break this balance and cause the price to go down."
"Huh? That makes sense."
Qi Ying thought about it and realized that what Draven said was indeed correct.
No matter how powerful the armor-breaking sword is, no matter how powerful it is at breaking armor, how can it be as powerful as a seventh-grade treasure long sword? No matter how high the defense of Demon God Armor is, can it be as big as a set of sixth-grade Heavenly Transformation Demon Armor that can increase the impact on knights? The reason why it sells for such a high price is mainly because it is rare and has never appeared before.
"So, I suggest you, even if you have the ability to create a large number of magic pattern treasures in a short period of time, don't auction too many for us. Just provide a few pieces a month. This can not only maintain the high price of the magic pattern treasures, but also make a profit." Acquiring a large amount of assets will also give people who want to buy it a chance to participate in the competition, further building the reputation of your treasure. In Black Hall, this sales strategy is called thirsty marketing."
"It can still be like this..."
Qi Ying narrowed his eyes slightly.
From a normal perspective, the magic pattern treasure you drew is a low-cost and high-return thing. Naturally, the more you sell, the better. The cost of one billion and the return of 300 billion is not too profitable, right
However, when the same thing increases sharply, it will depreciate significantly.
Even if the price can be maintained at a high level because of its inherent value, each piece cannot earn much profit.
and.
I usually mainly practice cultivation!
Painting Magic can only be regarded as a side job that can solve financial problems.
There is another very important aspect.
That is, I really cannot mass-produce high-level magic pattern treasures on a large scale. On the one hand, refining treasures requires a master refiner and precious materials, and there are very few master refiners and precious materials. On the other hand, I The high-level magic core required by Hui Mo is not easy to obtain.
The magic core is not valuable because it is of little use! As long as some magicians use magic cores when setting up special magic arrays, the number of high-level magic cores, especially the twelfth-level magic cores, is extremely rare and is difficult to obtain under normal circumstances. The ones circulating on the market are Inventories of all parties.
Once deflation occurs, the price of magic core will skyrocket! And it's not easy to get.
From many aspects, it is necessary to produce limited quantities of magic pattern treasures.
"Okay, I can figure out the quantity myself."
Qi Ying nodded.
"Yeah. Do you want to have other cooperation?"
"Well, I have a few requests."
"Speaking."
"First, from now on, I want to paint the magic treasure of the demon. The treasure itself must be specially customized. Like the results of the previous auction, the armor-breaking sword and the demon armor are actually defective products that I pieced together. The only thing that counts is The only high-quality ones are the 'Overlord Arm Guards'. In order to ensure the quality of the magic pattern treasure, I will tell Heitang in advance what kind of treasure I need."
Draven nodded: "This requirement can be met, what else?"
"Secondly, my auction items must be auctioned separately, no longer mixed with other treasures. Make it an exclusive auction, so as to expand its influence."
Draven smiled: "I didn't even expect to do this! What you said makes sense. Very good, the second request can be completely satisfied."
"Third, and most importantly, my identity must be kept completely confidential. No one is allowed to know it. Even within the dark hall, it must be kept as low as possible. I don't want anyone to leak my identity."
What Qi Ying has always been most worried about is the issue of identity!
Heitang knows that his identity is unclear, but because he has common interests, he will not dig deeper into himself.
But it would be different if other people knew about it!
Especially when there are so many enemies in the realm of nations, once someone finds out through investigation that he really has an unknown origin, he will be in a lot of trouble. It’s just that the origin is unknown, but the key is to draw magic patterns that no one else can draw. This will touch the interests of many other people and forces. If some people use this to cause trouble, it may be difficult for them to continue in the realm of nations. Mix in.
"The third point is completely achievable. Including Bazemore and Catalina, they will never know that you are the magic pattern master Bai Hu. They will only think that you are an A-level privileged person. People who know your identity, I guarantee that they can keep it completely confidential."
Draven slapped his chest and said.
"I am very satisfied if I can do this. As for other cooperation, we can discuss it later. By the way, Mr. Delevingne, I have encountered some confusion in cultivation recently and I would like to ask you for advice."
"What's the confusion? Tell me." Delevingne smiled faintly, "I don't know much about magic patterns. I still know a little bit about cultivation."
