Building infrastructure in a digital world

Chapter 535 535. Beast Tide 60
……

The value of the materials can be seen just from the names of the construction materials. These materials have basically never appeared before.

Dark iron alloy is made from three pieces of dark iron, but Su You's previous dark iron had been used in the monster spawning tower, and there was nothing left in the warehouse, so she went to the monster spawning cage to remove three locks, and then replaced them. Nine locks made of silver and iron alloy were put on it.

Silver-iron alloy literally means an alloy material made from silver and iron. Its strength is several grades worse than black iron, but because the quantity has tripled, the effect is about the same.

Silver alloy is the same as silver alloy. It is a material synthesized from three silver ingots. 100 yuan of silver alloy is [-] silver ingots. However, when Suyou received the system reward before, he took a lot of gold, silver, iron and copper material ores, so Three hundred silver ingots are more than enough.

The most noteworthy ones are the last two materials.

Colored pebble bricks are synthesized from seven different colors of pebbles, that is, seven stones make one brick. A 500 yuan brick is [-] stones.

If it is an ordinary stone, let alone [-], [-] suyou can also be taken out, but this colored pebble brick must be synthesized with special colored pebbles, and this kind of pebbles can only be collected at the beach, and The quantity is extremely small.

Because five hundred pebbles of each color need to be collected, but pebbles of two colors are very rare, the actual number of pebbles collected is far more than [-].

In short, Su You had specially sent people to the beach to collect materials for a long time before collecting all the materials for the 500 yuan colored pebble bricks.

As for the last glazed crystal stone, it is even more remarkable. Although the name has the word "stone", it actually has nothing to do with stone, because this glazed crystal stone is actually synthesized from gem fragments.

Gem fragments are the product of failure to set gems, and they seem useless. In fact, when the number of gem fragments is sufficient, they can be used to re-synthesize gems.

And because the gems synthesized from gem fragments are random, there is a very small probability that the best gems can be synthesized.

So at that time, some people even deliberately bought a bunch of rubbish gems, and then hired a bunch of people who didn't know how to inlay gems to inlay gems casually, so as to obtain gem fragments, and then use the fragments to synthesize top-quality gems...

A glazed crystal stone requires ten gem fragments, and synthetic gemstones also require ten gem fragments. This is equivalent to using a hundred gems to build this building. This construction cost can be said to be not simple at all. .

In addition to the huge cost of building the material exchange station, its function is actually not that powerful, because the system will charge a 'handling fee' when using the material exchange station to exchange materials.

It’s just that the handling fee here is not money, but materials.

……

One minute passed quickly. Su You came to the material exchange station, opened the material exchange panel, and saw the familiar exchange ratio.

Although stone was extremely rare in the early stages of the game, now it seems that stone and wood should be materials of the same price. But if you want to exchange wood for stone, it is two pieces of wood for one stone, and the value will be cut in half.

Likewise, stone is exchanged for wood in a ratio of two to one.

Even the lowest-grade materials can be redeemed like this, let alone top-notch things like dragon bone and fairy spring water.

It is no exaggeration to say that if Su You sells the materials consumed to exchange for a bottle of Elf Spring Water at the Material Exchange Station, and then uses the money earned from selling the materials to go to the Elf Tribe to buy Elf Spring Water, he can buy at least five bottles of Elf Spring Water!This is without considering Suyou's current goodwill bonus with the elves... If the goodwill factor is also taken into account, then at least two more bottles will be needed.

So although the material exchange station is easy to use, it also has real pitfalls.

Primary materials cost twice as much, mid-level materials cost three times as much, advanced materials cost five times as much, and top-level materials... that means the price is more than ten times or even higher.

But this has nothing to do with what Su You is going to do now.

Because the above-mentioned situations are all situations that occur when low-level materials are exchanged for high-level materials, but what Su You has to do is the opposite. She has to use higher-level materials to replace lower-level materials.

After all, what she wanted to exchange was only materials for upgrading the building, which were not good things.

As for what to exchange for... of course it is the pile of beast materials in the warehouse.

Although Su You would definitely not be able to exchange high-level materials for low-level materials like the system and be able to exchange for materials with double the value, at least this ratio would not result in a loss, and he might even make a small profit.

Because the method used by this material exchange station to calculate the value of materials is based on the quality level of the material itself.

In other words, a slightly defective blue-quality hide and a complete blue-quality hide are of equal quality, so the materials they can exchange for at the material exchange station are also equal, and the value is based on The value of the hide is calculated based on the value of the intact hide, not the value of the defective hide.

But if it is sold, the value of the former will definitely be lower. Therefore, the correct way to open the building of the material exchange station is to use high-grade defective materials to exchange for low-grade required materials!
Su You took out all the defective materials and replaced them with a large amount of building materials, which were then used to upgrade the buildings in the territory.

Originally, this kind of thing was left to Ain, which would not only save time, but also reduce material consumption, but because they have been very busy recently, Su You didn't add any more burden to them.

Upgrade all upgradable ordinary buildings in the territory to level six.

Most of the upgrade time for level six buildings is 24 hours, and the upgrade time for some special buildings is longer, starting at least three days.

One day's upgrade time is not long, but three or five days is definitely too long, so these special buildings were kept by Su You and handed over to Ain for upgrade.

Just because the source of the pollution has been resolved, although there will still be beast tides from tomorrow, the frequency, number and attack intensity of the beast tides will be greatly reduced, so Ain will be more relaxed.

At that time, they can be busy with upgrades so that they will not have no work to do.

Although the construction team was paid when they had no work to do, Su You couldn't give them free money, so the wages when there were no tasks were only about one-third of the usual wages.

However, they occasionally take on some private work themselves. As long as it does not affect the progress of the construction tasks assigned by her, Su You does not restrict these. Therefore, the construction team is definitely a good job in the territory, not as good as those of the gatekeepers. difference.
