Qin Lin saw the movement in the light curtain in his mind, and immediately controlled the game character to go to the entrance of the ranch and talk to the dwarf Ani.
But this time the conversation was very strange:
[This dwarf seems to want to exchange something with you! 】
Seeing this prompt, he immediately clicked on the dwarf Ani, but there was no response.
For story missions, follow-up dialogue will appear after clicking on it.
He clicked continuously, but no dialogue appeared.
"???" Qin Lin frowned.
This does not seem to be a plot mission in the game's established program. It seems to be stuck due to a bug, and there is no way to jump out of the dialogue.
In other words, the appearance of the dwarf Ani this time is outside the established plot of the game.
Qin Lin seemed to have thought of something, and went straight back to his office without disturbing Zhao Moqing and the others to read the information.
Locking the office door, he entered the game with just one thought.
After entering the game, he saw a dwarf running over, wearing red clothes. He was Little Red among the 7 dwarfs.
Xiaohong ran up and said, "Boss, Ani is here to see you."
"I know." Qin Lin nodded.
He just controlled the game character to click on the dwarf Arnie. Now the dwarf Arnie is not far opposite him, talking with several other dwarfs.
This seems to be different from the game screen.
It seems that there is something different about the appearance of the dwarf Ani this time.
In the game screen just now, the dwarf Ani appeared, but there were no dwarfs talking to him in the screen.
The seven dwarfs still completed the tasks set by Qin Lin in the game under the established procedures of the game.
Therefore, when Arnie appeared at the entrance of the ranch, the seven dwarfs were not there.
But after he came in, in the real world, these dwarfs were already reminiscing with Ani.
And this is also a normal situation. After all, when old acquaintances meet, they will definitely come out to say hello and reminisce.
Qin Lin arrived in front of the dwarf Ani.
Ani said excitedly: "We meet again. I have something I want to talk to you about. Is that okay?"
"Tell me, what's the matter with you?" Qin Lin asked with a smile.
Ani hurriedly said: "You still have a lot of greenhouse tree design drawings. How about our cooperation? I can exchange the greenhouse tree design drawings with you and then sell them to other dwarfs."
Qin Lin laughed when he heard this.
He still had this idea himself. Who knew that Ani was so smart that he would come to him and want to cooperate with him? This made him look at Ani with a half-smile.
This guy is very good. In several plot missions, this guy wanted to take over the Panxia, and even tricked him into competing and deliberately lost the game.
You have to be careful when doing business with this kind of people, otherwise you will be cheated accidentally.
Ani was a little uncomfortable being stared at by Qin Lin. It seemed that he had a guilty conscience when he approached Qin Lin to take over the business. He immediately said: "I am very sincere. I have a piece of mithril here. I can let the dwarf blacksmith in the Dwarf Valley I’ll help you create two random mithril farming tools.”
"Mithril tools!" Qin Lin's eyes lit up.
In Ranch Story, in addition to fishing rods that can be upgraded to catch better and rarer seafood and fish, agricultural tools can also be upgraded.
The order of upgrading is lv1: normal, lv2 bronze, lv3 silver, lv4 gold, lv5 mithril, lv6 curse, lv7 blessing, lv8 sage
Bronze, silver, and gold levels are still within the category of normal farm tools, which can increase efficiency when used.
Fishing with a fishing rod is faster and you can catch more types of fish. It originally took 4 hits to break a stone with a hammer. After upgrading, it only takes 2 hits.
But it's different when you reach the Mithril level.
The mithril sickle can cut all the surrounding grass with one blade.
Mithril Hammer, one hammer can destroy all the stones in several surrounding areas.
Mithril axe, one ax can chop down all the trees in several surrounding areas.
If it is the final sage level, it will be a full screen effect.
With one scythe, all the grass on the screen is cleared, and with one hammer, all the stones on the screen can be broken into pieces.
This is another reason why Harvest Story is a fantasy farming game.
It's just that upgrading mithril farm tools is not subjective. Upgrading cursed farm tools requires specific plot tasks or special scenes to obtain upgrade conditions.
After getting the cursed farm tools, you have to go to the church to pray. After a certain time, the attributes of the cursed farm tools change into blessed farm tools.
Blessing agricultural tools is great, and you can get higher quality items by using them.
If it is a blessed hoe, it can dig out some very precious ancient bones when mining, and even the products of civilization relics can be dug out in some versions.
He had never received a reminder that farm tools could be upgraded before, but he didn't expect that he could now randomly get mithril farm tools directly from the dwarf Ani.
This seems to break out of the established program of the game.
Because in the game, farm tools must be upgraded step by step.
Moreover, the flower house tree design itself is something that is not in the game, and this transaction is definitely not a plot mission in the game.
"How's it going?" The dwarf Ani looked at Qin Lin expectantly.
"This suggestion seems good." Qin Lin agreed with a smile.
The dwarf Ani was excited when he heard this: "Then for these two mithril farm tools, can you pay me 10 design drawings first?"
Qin Lin looked at Ani and smiled.
Isn't this guy smart? Are you so eager to reveal your purpose?
It seems that this greenhouse tree design is very popular among the dwarves.
"Is it okay?" Ani asked again, but Qin Lin looked at him and his voice became weaker.
"Okay!" Qin Lin smiled and exited the game, then took 10 printed flower room design drawings from the office drawer and entered the game.
He did a casual activity. He originally wanted to use the flower house tree design to deceive a parrot, but he didn't expect that the flower house design would be turned into currency for trading with the dwarf.
Qin Lin handed 10 design drawings to Ani.
Ani took the design and promised Qin Lin: "Don't worry, I will definitely send you the mithril farm tools soon."
As he spoke, he looked at the design drawings, and his eyes became brighter and brighter as he looked at them.
Xiaohong and the seven dwarfs also came over and became excited when they saw the design drawings:
"This is a greenhouse tree, so beautiful!"
"I want to make my greenhouse tree look like this!"
"Boss, can you give me a design drawing?"
"Yes, yes, give us a design drawing as our salary!"
"..."
The seven dwarfs immediately surrounded Qin Lin, looking at him with expectant eyes that made him unable to bear to refuse, as if refusing would be a bad boss who was exploiting him.
Qin Lin had no choice but to quit the game with one thought. Then he entered the game with 7 flower house tree designs and gave one to each of the dwarfs.
After the seven dwarfs got the design, each of them ran towards their greenhouse tree happily with their eyes shining brightly.
Ani looked at the seven dwarfs with a strange look in his eyes.
"I will deliver the Mithril farm tools as soon as possible. I am trustworthy." Ani also said and left the ranch.
Seeing this, Qin Lin had an idea and quit the game and returned to the office.
He was somewhat looking forward to Ani's two mithril farm tools.
Sitting under the desk, Qin Lin took out his mobile phone and browsed the news to learn about the latest status of the greenhouse tree design on the Internet.
Unexpectedly, the popularity of the design drawings of Qinglin Villa and Hanafang Tree was suppressed.
He watched several news videos about a certain mountain in succession.
That's right, it's the mountain where the barbecue incident occurred.
After the Five Tiger Generals were captured, didn't they launch a massive thunderous operation?
The key point was that Operation Thunder came to a successful conclusion. Who knew that another murder occurred, killing two people in a row.
Hey, I can only say that some people are really too rampant.
Therefore, this matter is also a hotly searched news item on a certain channel.
Qin Lin viewed several videos, and one video had 2 million likes and two had more than 1 million likes.
When he saw the news, he could only sigh, turn a blind eye, and express no opinion. After all, he didn't know the ins and outs of the matter.
However, he was not in the mood to read the news anymore, it was a bad thing after all.
He opened the door of the office and walked out. When he returned to the lobby, Sun Ming, Lin Lanzi, and Zhao Moqing had finished their discussion.
Seeing Qin Lin coming out, Sun Ming also said: "Boss Qin, the specific situation has been discussed with Mr. Zhao and Mr. Lin. Do I need to give you another look here?"
Qin Lin shook his head and said, "No, since they are sure, there is no problem."
If he were to get involved in the specific details of this kind of thing, wouldn't he be busy to death?
If Zhao Moqing and Lin Lanzi had problems with just this, he would no longer be able to be the shopkeeper with peace of mind.
Sun Ming smiled and said, "Okay, I will contact the county directly when the time comes."
"Yeah." Qin Lin nodded.
When Captain Tang and others came to that mountain, Minister Lu had already greeted the county through the above, so that if something happened, the county would have to deal with it as soon as possible.
I don’t know if Sun County and Chen Li had some misunderstanding. When he called to mention this matter, Sun County and Chen Li directly asked people to prepare a contract. The mountain was contracted by Qinglin Villa for free, and the term was mountain forest development. The contracting limit is 30 years.
Sun County and Chen Li did indeed misunderstand something. After all, the people above greeted them directly and asked the county to cooperate, so it was inevitable to overthink it.
But even so, the two of them didn't feel at a loss.
After all, if the mountain is left alone, it will not produce any value at all.
Contracting Qinglin Villa, at least Qinglin Villa will have one more project, which can entertain more tourists, generate more jobs, and generate more economy...
This is good for the county anyway.
After Sun Ming left, Lin Lanzi also said goodbye and left. After all, she was managing a lot of things. Apart from reporting to the manor, she couldn't stay here all the time.
Zhao Moqing also formally raised it with Qin Lin: "Husband, what do you think about letting Sister Lanzi take care of the villa after I give birth to the child? I also intend to leave some things to her during these times. After inspection, she is The most suitable person for the Villa.”
"Well, if you're sure there's no problem, just settle it!" Qin Lin nodded. The position of general manager of Qinglin Villa would be best promoted by someone from within the Villa.
After all, the insiders are most familiar with the Villa and will not blindly change anything.
If it is an external dig, airborne management has a common problem, that is, they don't like to follow the original track, or they always like to leave some traces of themselves to show their authority, and they often change this or that.
If a company with problems is poaching people to change it, that's okay.
If you are running a very healthy company, making random changes may be a disaster.
There are also many companies that have failed due to this reason.
Many times, a company occupies the market because of some reason, but then blindly changes the reason for occupying the market. It is strange that it is not cool.
Like Lao Ganma, not only did her son fail to live up to his expectations, but now he has to come back at a much older age.
Qinglin Villa is more special and special to other companies, so it is best to keep it as it is.
Within the villa, only Lin Lanzi is the most suitable and capable.
After confirming this matter, Qin Lin also sent Zhao Moqing back to the internal area.
The two parrots flew to the table one after the other, and there were still some strawberries on the plate.
Xiao Wu stepped forward, grabbed a strawberry and started to nibble on it.
Xiaobao followed behind like a doormat, cautiously sticking his head out. It wasn't until Xiaowu grabbed one and put it aside that he happily grabbed it and started chewing on it.
In this look, it is obvious that he has been tamed, and his tracheitis has been properly cured.
After Qin Lin sent Zhao Moqing back to the inner area of the manor, he suddenly received a call from Minister Lu.
He answered doubtfully and said hello: "Minister Lu!"
Minister Lu's voice also came to mind, and he was a little anxious: "Boss Qin, I heard from Academician Chu and others before that you have cultivated a kind of ginseng that can treat myopia? I wonder how the ginseng is cultivated now?"
"Minister Lu, why are you asking this all of a sudden?" Qin Lin knew that Minister Lu was talking about Mingmu Bai Ginseng.
The Mingmu White Ginseng has been handed over to the Qinglin Pharmaceutical Company managed by Chu Yue (Chapter 354) for cultivation. Calculating the time, it should be almost done.
But he didn't understand why Minister Lu suddenly asked this.
"I'm asking this for other leaders. I'll send you two pieces of information so you can understand." Minister Lu hung up the phone as he spoke.
After a while, Qin Lin also received a message from Minister Lu. There were indeed two pieces of information connected in it.
He opened a data link and saw the news "Foreign Yisilu Glasses Company sued domestic Mingle Glasses Company for patent infringement, and will enter the international infringement approval stage. Mingle Glasses Company will face a crisis of suspending production!" 》
"???" Qin Lin wondered, Minister Lu wouldn't specifically let him see the infringement, right?
When he clicked on the next linked information, he understood.
There are nearly 700 million people in our country who are short-sighted, but the domestic myopia glasses market is controlled by Western countries. According to statistics, my country's myopia glasses-related market will reach more than 150 billion in 2022.
However, the market of more than 150 billion yuan with 700 million people is almost monopolized by two European companies, one is Isilu and the other is Carl Zeiss.
Famous eyewear brands such as Haichang and Hengdeli are also products from Western countries.
These eyewear companies occupy as much as 85% of the domestic eyewear market.
Especially Yisilu, in recent years, has used various means to acquire various domestic eyewear brands, such as Wanxing Optical, Shile Optical, Tianhong Optical, Yarui Optical, etc.
55% of the glasses market is occupied by Yisilu, and its domestic revenue in 2020 will exceed more than 70 billion, while the domestic Mingle brand’s revenue is only a little more than 3 billion.
The Mingle glasses brand is also the only domestic leading brand that has not been acquired or sold shares to foreign investors.
But the gap between the two sides is obviously huge. Moreover, Yisiluo holds more than 9,500 patents, while Mingle only has 87 patents.
Now the idea is obviously to use patents to attack this only domestic head brand, and then completely monopolize the domestic glasses market.
The key is that although these Western countries have the same purpose, they are not a monopoly of one company, nor do they trigger international patent monopoly laws.
This is a disguised form of targeting, but given the gap in technology and the choice of domestic brands to sell companies and shares in pursuit of profits while avoiding disadvantages, it is very helpless.
If even Mingle is eliminated, then they will completely monopolize the market, even if they are not the same company, but once these Western companies join forces, who can do anything about raising prices and using inferior materials?
Qin Lin understood what Minister Lu meant when he asked the leader about Ming Mu Bai Shen.
Those glasses can be jointly monopolized, but in your own country, a market must not even have a brand from your own country.
This is the bottom line.
If they want to shave their heads, we will just lift the table.
