Chapter 913 - Intermediate Shop
After these six players conversed among themselves, they left the Teleportation Hall and stepped onto the busy street as everyone watched .
As soon as the group left the building, the leading white-haired, middle-aged man carrying a black-and-white spear summoned a giant snow-white wolf . The wolf was even larger than a lion .
An Assassin, wearing dark-gray leather armor with two blood-red daggers hanging from his waist, summoned a black warhorse beside the middle-aged man . The warhorse sported silver armor and looked far more majestic than the horses NPC soldiers used .
The instant these two Mounts appeared, they had immediately attracted the attention of every player on the street .
"Damn, who are those people? Their Mounts are definitely not Common rank . "
"You're right . I've never seen any Common Mounts that look that cool . At the very least, they should be Bronze, maybe Mysterious-Iron, Mounts . "
To current players, even Common Mounts were a luxury, not to mention Mounts ranked Bronze or above .
Hence, when the players on the street saw these Mounts, both envy and admiration filled their hearts . Some beautiful female players even sent the white-haired man on the giant wolf flirtatious glances .
Nowadays, God's Domain was increasingly popular . One frequently saw the game mentioned in the news . Moreover, powerful Guilds were offering annual salaries ranging from 500,000 Credits to 6,000,000 Credits, depending on a player's strength . To ordinary people, this was an astronomical amount of money .
Seeing as the white-haired man rode a Bronze Mount or greater at this stage of the game, his salary must have been in the seven-digit range .
"Hahaha! Boss Blood, I think those beauties are interested in you!" an Elementalist, who wore a robe embroidered with runic symbols and exuded a refined air, poked fun at the white-haired Berserker leading his group .
"It's a pity that these beauties will never catch Boss Blood's eyes . After all, his heart already belongs to someone . Why won't these beauties look at me instead?" a Level 39 skinny, male Swordsman said as he sighed .
"Masked, you really should learn a thing or two from the Boss . If you put more effort into your improvement, you would've already reached Level 40 and could a Mount to woo those beauties . " the male Assassin on the black mare snorted .
"How can I possibly compare to Boss Blood? Even now, I have not passed the test or obtained a title, unlike you, Kirin, who obtained your title half a year ago," the Swordsman named Masked Angel said enviously .
"Alright, that's enough chit-chat . Focus on our task . I will head to Zero Wing with Kirin . The rest of you, catch up with a carriage," the leading Berserker named Bloodsucker ordered sternly .
Immediately, everyone fell silent and did as they were told . The four Level 39s rode an advanced horse carriage and followed Bloodsucker and Kirin towards Zero Wing's Guild Residence .
Although the advanced horse carriage was fast, it was still slightly slower than the snow-white wolf and black warhorse . As a result, the gap between the two groups gradually increased .
The party caused a Commotion everywhere they went .

Meanwhile, the Candlelight Trading Firm's entrance was overcrowded .
Before anyone knew it, the Candlelight Trading Firm had recruited over 300 Lifestyle players . With this number, everyone could see how powerful the Firm's foundations were . The other trading firms in Star-Moon Kingdom could not compare to this .
"Guild Leader, we've reached our recruitment limits for the moment . Any more and we'll have to send these people to the Lifestyle Associations," Melancholic Smile reported worriedly as she looked at the numerous files on the newcomers .
One thousand, two hundred people–this was already beyond what the Candlelight Trading Firm could handle . If they really recruited this many people, they would lose money each day, rather than make it .
"It's fine . Bring all of the information you have on the Candlelight's branch Shops," Shi Feng instructed, waving his hand dismissively and chuckling .
In God's Domain, Shops were officially categorized by star-ranks . However, one could also categorize a Shop by its size . Players in his previous life had realized his and summarized the differences . There were a total of four categories .
Basic Shop, Intermediate Shop, Advanced Shop, and Special Shop .
To begin with, 1-star and 2-star Shops fell under the Basic Shop category . A Basic Shop could only accommodate a limited number of Lifestyle players, and a firm had to rely on numbers to make up for the lack of space . A Basic Shop's assistance it could provide to Lifestyle players was also quite limited .
The Intermediate Shop category included 3-star Shops to 5-star Shops . In terms of size, Intermediate Shops were massively different than Basic Shops . As long as a Shop reached 3-star status, it gained far more room than a 2-star Shop . Hence, when the various Guilds opened their own Shops, while it was relatively easy to upgrade a 1-star Shop to 2-star status, it was many times more difficult to upgrade a 2-star Shop to a 3-star Shop .
Naturally, upgrading from an Intermediate Shop to an Advanced Shop was even more difficult .
Meanwhile, the benefits an Intermediate Shop could provide became more obvious . The Basic Meditation Room was a primary example .
After Shi Feng's command, Melancholic Smile compiled all of the information she had on every Candlelight's branch Shop and handed the files to Shi Feng .
Not only was the compiled information detailed, but it was also easy to understand .
So far, the Candlelight Trading Firm had a total of 25 Shops . Among them, 24 were branch Shops . These branch Shops covered 22 cities . The fact that the firm had expanded so much was partly due to Phoenix Rain's secret assistance . Her help had allowed the Candlelight Trading Firm to set up Shops in the cities of a few neighboring countries . Moreover, she had only sold the Shops to Shi Feng at a price slightly higher than the initial cost .
Phoenix Rain is certainly dedicated in her work . Shi Feng smiled slightly after reading the information .
Among the many Shops, six were within the Black Dragon Empire . Moreover, five of these Shops were in cities with a player population in the millions . In addition, there were six Shops in the kingdoms neighboring Star-Moon Kingdom . Among them, four were in the Purple Thorns Kingdom . All four of these Shops were in the top ten most populated cities in the kingdom . As for the remaining two branch Shops, they were in the Twin Towers Kingdom . Unfortunately, most of the kingdom had fallen into ruin, and only the capital city remained standing .
Shi Feng had to admit that it was beneficial to cooperate with a major power . Without Phoenix Rain's help, Shi Feng would have to exhaust himself to no end to achieve a similar result, and this would have greatly impacted his personal growth .
Based on this alone, one could see how frightening the foundations of God's Domain's major powers were . Currently, Zero Wing's advantage only lay in the fact that it had a lot of liquid funds . However, this did not mean that the game's major powers were poorer than Zero Wing . Rather, these powers reinvested most of the money they earned into valuable Lands . Although Zero Wing had a lot of money on hand, it didn't have anywhere to invest .
In terms of capital turnover, the difference between Zero Wing and these major powers was obvious at a glance .
I will have to thank Phoenix Rain . I would have had a hard time using up these five slots otherwise . Shi Feng then chose five branch Shops and upgraded them to 2-star Shops . When upgrading these Shops to 2-star status, he saved far more money by using the special rights of a 3-star Shop than when he had used a Promotion Order . Each Shop only cost 600 Gold to upgrade . With this, he only needed to spend 3,000 Gold to obtain five 2-star Shops .
Meanwhile, of the five Shops Shi Feng chose, three were in the Black Dragon Empire, with one of them in Lake Heart City . As for the remaining two slots, he used one on a Shop in the Purple Thorns Kingdom, and the other on the Shop in the Twin Towers Kingdom's capital .
