/ Online Game: I Possess a Monster Merging Simulator! Chapter 236 – Recruiting Doge
“So many?”
Hearing Doge's report, Lorne was also surprised. He checked the list that Doge handed over, and it surprisingly stated all the alchemist organizations that wanted to reach an agreement with them.
A total of 157 forces, including humans, gnomes, elves, orcs, and various other races, sent sincere invitation letters.
Most importantly, there were many authoritative organizations in these alchemist organizations. Their recognition would allow Lorne's books to have a higher reputation in the world.
In addition, it could also lead to the implementation of the Tyrant Award.
“Mr. Tyrant, these are only a portion.”
Doge said, “According to my estimation, the total number of alchemist organizations in the various cities of the Human Empire Alliance, the Elven Kingdom, and the Gnome Kingdom should exceed 300.”
“There are only 157 of them now, because I have sent out the incomplete version of the Encyclopedia of Rare Herbs. I included about 70% of the herbs. These are already more complete than the best pharmacopoeia in the Empire. In addition, I have kept 30% of the rare herbs and edited a portion of their characteristics. The remaining characteristics of the herbs will be continuously updated in the future versions.”
“This way, we can maintain the popularity of the Pharmacopoeia and maintain a cooperative relationship with all the alchemist organizations in the world.”
Doge explained his plan, which impressed Lorne.
His thoughts were consistent with Lorne's, even more thorough in fact.
This was because Lorne had only recently thought of this problem, and Doge had considered all aspects when he published the book.
It had to be said that this Alchemist Association's President indeed had a powerful business mind.
“Yes.” Lorne nodded, then asked, “How do you plan to cooperate with them?”
“Originally, I wanted to place the books in their various libraries and let them rent them for a price to read. This way, all the alchemists who read this book have to pay a certain amount of reading fees. Although the reading fees will not be very high, under such a huge number, it can still bring us high benefits.”
“However, after careful consideration, I discovered another problem. If we release it like this, it's very likely that someone will secretly record the contents of the pharmacopoeia and issue a pirated copy, damaging our benefits.”
“Therefore, I've recently been considering selling it by directly buying it off. Although this will also be harmful by the pirated version, this method can maximize our benefits.”
With that, Doge looked at Lorne again and asked, “Mr. Tyrant, what do you think we should do with this?”
How should he deal with it?
Lorne thought for a moment and said, “I think we can use an online reading method. The Recording Crystal seems to have this function.”
“The Recording Crystal does have this ability, but it doesn't seem to be able to solve the problem of piracy.”
Doge frowned. He had long prepared the crystal version of the book, but that would not stop the piracy. In fact, the function of the crystal would make the piracy even more rampant.
“Don't worry, Doge.”
Lorne said, “I saw a special device created based on Recording Crystal in the Gnome Mineral Company's shop. It can store information and provide a special account. Only those who log in can check the information inside.”
“This device can solve the drawback of duplicating the records and provide an account so that we can tabulate everyone's reading records and earnings from them.”
“Regarding the piracy, my idea is to reduce the reading fees. To the alchemists, a low cost for reading the book will not deter them. In addition, we can all cooperate with the Gnome Mineral Company to let them record all the buyers of this reading equipment. As long as a pirated version appears, we can directly lock onto the equipment and deal with it.”
“As for paper books, I don't think the piracy of this method will have much of an effect on us, because we can directly update the content on the mainframe of the equipment. This does not require much investment, but paper piracy needs to be printed and produced. The cost is very high, and it cannot bring much benefits. It might even cause a loss because no customer is willing to spend too much money to buy it.”
Hearing this, Doge was enlightened.
With his business sense, how could he not understand the meaning?
This method of transferring content through energy would definitely replace the method of transmitting information through matter. Moreover, because the equipment could only be produced by the Gnome Mineral Company, it could completely prevent piracy at the source.
As a result, the problem of piracy was resolved.
In addition, the accounting problem was also resolved. There would not be any cooperation partners secretly deducting the funds.
“Although Mr. Tyrant is young, you have extraordinary wisdom and knowledge. As the Alchemist Association's Guild Leader, I can only blush with shame.”
Doge shook his head and smiled, feeling very ashamed of his thoughts during this period of time.
“Since you think so highly of me, do you want to consider working for me?” Lorne smiled and made an offer.
The sudden invitation stunned Doge, and then he smiled and said, “Don't I work for Mr. Tyrant already? Look at these documents. I've been dealing with them for days.”
“What I mean is, genuine cooperation.”
Lorne walked to his desk, picked up a book, and faced Doge.
This time, Doge was stunned.
This was because the emblem of Iron Skull City was printed on the book.
What he meant was to leave Iron Skull City and join his faction.
Leave Iron Skull City?
Doge hesitated.
He was now the Alchemist Association's Guild Leader in Iron Skull City. Although he did not sign any ridiculous agreement with the main city, he had also spent decades of effort to reach this position step by step from an apprentice. It was still somewhat too difficult for him to directly give up all of this.
However, the person who invited him was not ordinary. To have such knowledge at such a young age, his identity and potential could not be guessed with age.
Thinking of this, Doge was even more conflicted. He did not want to refuse the invitation, because he had obtained wisdom from the other party's knowledge. He even vaguely felt that the other party might be the one who could change his fate again!
Thinking of this, Doge finally nodded. He had chosen to follow Lorne, but this was actually inevitable, because just the profits and future brought by the “Encyclopedia of Rare Herbs” alone far exceeded his position as the nominal Alchemist Association's Guild Leader. Furthermore, he still had the drive and passion to work hard for greater success.
