Chapter 3684 Panic
The moment the free market is dominated by strong power, it loses its right to operate.
This situation is completely consistent with the market situation in the devil world.
Not long after the six major organizations took over the commercial street, the six leaders signed a treaty of peaceful coexistence. On the surface, it was to reduce disputes, but in fact, it was to make a fortune together.
Then, in the name of the leader, the top leaders rectified the market economy.
Any store that refuses to hand over store management rights to the six major organizations will be banned.
As this order was issued, nearly 80% of shop owners showed strong resistance.
Marches and demonstrations are everywhere.
In the demonic business world, chaos is imminent.
As the saying goes, where there is resistance, there is high pressure.
A week after the vendors started marching, the six major organizations finally took action.
The adventurers from the six major organizations were sent out to slaughter the people in the parade on the street, and even the innocent passers-by were not spared.
This massacre lasted for more than several months, and the number of merchants massacred reached one-sixth of the total number of merchants.
The severity of its tragedy can even be ranked at the top of the list of the most tragic events in the demon world.
Since then, the vast majority of traders have chosen to quit the business world and work for others.
Fortunately, the demand for various types of work in the Demon World is still huge, enough to provide food and housing for the vast majority of civilians who have changed careers.
But it was this incident that directly caused the technology of the demon world's forging industry to stagnate.
Now, no matter how many years have passed, the forging technology in the demon world is still weak.
The best equipment they have here, if placed in the Zephyr Continent, is equivalent to the quality of top-grade fine steel equipment.
The quality of the equipment they made using the best material - mithril, is only slightly better than the top-grade fine steel equipment. To forge such a set of equipment, the materials and time required are all from the Zephyr Continent blacksmiths. several times.
One can imagine how backward the forging technology here is.
In addition, even if people in the forging world of the demon world have new ideas and new ideas, they will not provide them. The reason is very simple. People who provide new ideas and new ideas will not receive any preferential treatment, and if new When ideas and new ideas are tried out, any losses incurred will be borne by the person who proposed the idea.
The reason why the six major organizations put forward such unsighted regulations is that on the one hand they do not want to lose any money that belongs to them, and on the other hand they find it too troublesome.
After all, once a problem occurs and losses are caused, it will take time and effort to make up for it. However, the talents of the six major organizations do not have extra energy to devote to this. They only want to collect money and do not want problems to occur. They can avoid problems without them. The best way is to follow the rules without making any changes and without any innovation.
Looking at the lifeless blacksmith shop, I snorted coldly and walked towards the tavern.
I went to the pub not to drink, but to eat some delicacies unique to the devil world.
After entering the tavern, I randomly chose a seat to sit down, ordered a drink, and a plate of snacks unique to the devil world, and started eating by myself.
While I was eating delicious food, drinking drinks, and listening to the bragging of adventurers in the tavern, several adventurers dressed in strange clothes came up and surrounded me.
"Hey, kid!" One of the spiky-headed adventurers said with a fierce look on his face: "Your weapon looks very good. I want to borrow it from my buddy to play with. Do you have any objections?"
I raised my head and looked into his eyes. Just when he said wildly, "What do you think I mean? Do you want to be beaten?" I nodded and said, "No objection, you can take it."
Several adventurers in weird costumes looked at each other and laughed, and then the spiky-headed adventurer reached for the Odachi I put aside.
Then he realized that he couldn't pick it up!
He had a ferocious face and grinned, almost using all his strength, but no matter what, he couldn't move the Odachi sword even half an inch.
"It's so heavy!" The adventurer's neck was so tight that veins popped out, and his whole face was as red as a monkey's butt.
"Boy, what kind of material is this weapon of yours made of?" Another adventurer also stepped forward to help, and found that even with the strength of two people, they couldn't pick it up, so he asked me angrily.
"I don't know," I said, "This knife was given to me by someone else. Don't you want it? Take it."
Until this moment, how could the adventurers still not know that I was playing tricks on them?
They suddenly became angry and punched me with ferocious faces. They even pulled out their weapons, intending to give me a cruel blow.
Faced with their fierce looks, I dodged left and right, using various methods to avoid their random punches and kicks, as well as sneak attacks with sharp weapons.
Then a funny scene appeared - this group of extremely vicious adventurers who wanted to attack me actually inadvertently hurt one of their own during the handover of fists, kicks and weapons just now.
This is very embarrassing.
The injured adventurer howled as ferociously as a dying wild boar, and rolled on the ground, knocking over the table, overturning the chair, breaking the cup, and shattering the plate. The food and the wine in the cup all spilled on the adventurer's body, leaving him stained with blood and in a state of embarrassment.
Just when the situation was so chaotic that it was almost impossible to end, patrols from the six major organizations appeared.
As soon as these people appeared, the adventurer who was screaming on the ground immediately jumped up, pointed at me and complained: "Sir, he maliciously hurt people, look at my legs, they are bleeding!"
I can't help but feel ashamed. This guy is really a talent. He is the first to complain against evildoers.
"Is that so?" The adventurer from the patrol team of the six major organizations looked at me up and down and asked with a frown.
"Of course not," I said, "I was sitting here eating, and they came over and asked for my knife. I said yes, and then they started to move my knife."
I recounted the general situation. When the leader heard this, he frowned, turned to the adventurer again, and asked, "Is this what he said?"
"We are victims, sir!" the adventurer exclaimed, "Besides, how could we intentionally hurt ourselves?"
"That's right, sir," the adventurer's companion echoed, "Who would hurt themselves for nothing!"
"Do you have anything else to say?" the leader stared at me and asked.
"No," I said, "I have said everything that needs to be said. It is your business to believe it or not."
"Huh, I'm quite angry, that's why."
Before he could say anything, an adventurer next to him looked surprised, walked up quickly, grabbed the leader, and whispered in his ear.
After a few words, the leader's face suddenly changed. The original cold and cruel expression disappeared, replaced by fear and flattery.
