110: New Rules for Alliance Resource Exchange

Mo Yan glanced over; Xie Yufeng, that kid, had good luck, always finding high-quality treasures.

The ice source stone was decent, on the same Rank as obsidian.

As for the cold ice grass, it was a rare herb and could also be put to use.

Though the quality of the snowline beast hide was a bit poor, it could be stockpiled for now and used to light up the illustration in the future.

Mo Yan: "ice source stone 1:1 exchange, cold ice grass 20:1, beast hide 40:1. I will put the corresponding amount of obsidian into the Alliance Warehouse, and you can go exchange it yourself."

Xie Yufeng: "I'll exchange it, I'll exchange it right away!"

He rubbed his hands, still excited, and added another sentence.

Xie Yufeng: "That... Alliance Leader, besides obsidian, I also want to exchange for some basic resources."

"You also know that our territory upgrades and building maintenance consume too many basic resources. My meager resources are simply not enough."

Mo Yan was startled when he saw this, then quickly reacted.

He had an SSS-Grade talent as a fallback, with daily automatic income of various basic resources in the tens of thousands, so he almost never worried about it.

But Xie Yufeng and the others were different. With B-Grade talents and low territory Ranks, wanting to develop quickly, basic resources were indeed a big hurdle.

For the Alliance to grow stronger, the members' strength also had to keep up.

Providing appropriate support to help them build up their territories faster was also a good thing.

Most importantly, this deal was a guaranteed profit.

Mo Yan pondered for a moment, and an idea formed in his mind.

He spoke again in the Alliance channel.

Mo Yan: "Since everyone is short on basic resources, I will set an exchange rule."

"From now on, you can use Materials to exchange for basic resources in the Alliance Warehouse."

"The Material exchange ratio is temporarily set as follows:"

"If the Materials you submit are of basic quality, then 1 unit can be exchanged for 1 unit of basic resource (choose one of wood/stone/food/iron ore)."

"For common quality, 1 unit of Material exchanges for 5 units of basic resources."

"For rare quality, 1 unit of Material exchanges for 20 units of basic resources."

"For scarce quality, 1 unit of Material exchanges for 40 units of basic resources."

"As for Epic and above quality items, their value is higher, so they will not follow this unified exchange for now. You can discuss them with me separately."

"For first-order Strange Beast (Evolved Beast) corpses, 1 unit of Material exchanges for 30 units of basic resources."

"As for blueprints, equipment, or items, you can put them in the Warehouse yourselves, and I will exchange them if I see something suitable."

As soon as this message was released, the Alliance channel erupted again.

Chen Yutong: "This is great! Now I can exchange my excess Materials for much-needed resources!"

Wang Haochen: "This exchange ratio is very fair! My unused Sea Crab Materials finally have a place to be processed!"

Xie Yufeng was even more excited: "Now we can develop our territories much faster than others!"

Mo Yan: "Later, I will put a batch of basic resources into the Alliance Warehouse, including 10,000 units each of wood, stone, food, and gold coins. You can exchange them yourselves according to the new exchange rules."

"@Xie Yufeng, regarding the ice source stone, cold ice grass, and snowline beast hide you just mentioned, will they all be exchanged for obsidian at the previous ratio, or do you want a portion to be exchanged for basic resources according to the new rules?"

Xie Yufeng quickly replied: "Alliance Leader, I definitely want to exchange the ice source stone for obsidian; that's a rare item!"

"As for the cold ice grass and snowline beast hide... let me think..."

He calculated: the cold ice grass was of rare quality, and the snowline beast hide was of common quality.

If exchanged for obsidian, 20 stalks of cold ice grass would only yield 1 piece, and 40 pieces of snowline beast hide would only yield 1 piece.

But if exchanged for basic resources, 1 stalk of cold ice grass could be exchanged for 20 units of basic resources, and 1 piece of snowline beast hide could be exchanged for 5 units of basic resources.

What he lacked most for his territory construction now was wood and stone.

Xie Yufeng: "I'll use the ice source stone to exchange for 15 pieces of obsidian, and the rest will be exchanged for basic resources according to the new rules."

Mo Yan: "Alright. I've already set it up. You can go exchange them now."

Xie Yufeng: "I'm going to exchange them now!"

He immediately opened the Alliance Warehouse interface, first quickly exchanging 15 pieces of ice source stone for 15 pieces of rare obsidian. Looking at the extra black crystals in his backpack, he felt delighted.

Then, he opened the Warehouse again and found the resource slots Mo Yan had placed.

【Tip: You deposited 150 units of rare quality item, cold ice grass. According to the exchange rule (rare 1:20), you can exchange for 3000 units of basic resources. Please select the type and quantity of basic resources you need.】

Xie Yufeng thought for a moment. What he lacked most now were wood and stone.

He chose 1500 units of wood and 1500 units of stone.

【Tip: Exchange successful! You obtained wood x1500, stone x1500.】

Immediately after, he deposited 300 pieces of snowline beast hide.

【Tip: You deposited 300 units of common quality item, snowline beast hide. According to the exchange rule (common 1:5), you can exchange for 1500 units of basic resources. Please select the type and quantity of basic resources you need.】

This time, he chose 750 units of food and 750 units of gold coins.

【Tip: Exchange successful! You obtained food x750, gold coins x750.】

After all these operations, Xie Yufeng looked at the large batch of resources that had appeared in his territory's Warehouse, feeling like he was walking on air.

Xie Yufeng: "Now I can upgrade to a Rank 4 territory right away!"

At this moment, Wang Haochen also popped up.

Wang Haochen: "@Mo Yan Alliance Leader, there are quite a few treasures in my coastal area. I have a lot of fluorescent pearls and Sea Crabs, and also some dried Sea Dragon beast tendons. Can these be exchanged for basic resources according to the new rules?"

He watched eagerly, afraid Mo Yan would say no.

His totem pole upgrade and the cultivation of new totem warriors both required massive amounts of basic resources.

He had been so worried his hair was turning white, and now that he saw hope, how could he not be excited?

Wang Haochen: "My fluorescent pearls can be used for lighting and can also be ground into powder for decoration. The giant claws can be used as weapon Materials, and the Sea Dragon beast tendons are incredibly tough, making them excellent for crafting bowstrings!"

He quickly listed the advantages of his items, afraid Mo Yan wouldn't be interested.

Mo Yan looked at the series of messages Wang Haochen sent, a slight smile playing on his lips. This guy was quite good at promoting his own things.

His gaze swept over the screenshots Wang Haochen sent.

Name: fluorescent pearl

Quality: Rare

Description: Pearls condensed within deep-sea clam Strange Beast (Evolved Beasts), emitting a soft fluorescent light. Can be used for illumination, ground into powder for decoration, or as an auxiliary ingredient for certain special potions.

Overall Value: Medium-High

"The items are all pretty good," Mo Yan judged inwardly.

The fluorescent pearl was of rare quality, with wide applications.

The Sea Dragon beast tendon was even a scarce Material, incredibly tough, perfect for making bows and arrows.

As for the Sea Crab, although it was only of common quality, if there was a large quantity, lighting up the illustration should be no problem.
