Chapter 51 The Auction
After the pill was taken away by the old monk by 10%, and the usage of each pill of Duguzhuo was informed, the player clicked on the pill again to see the effect of the pill described by the old monk.
For example, there are two identical Zhuji Dans in Ye Jian's hand. One is top-grade and gains 60,000 experience after taking it, and the other is low-grade, with only 40,000 experience after taking it.
"Jiji Pill, Blood Nourishing Pill, Qi Nourishing Pill... These are all better than the herbs on the market, but they are not irreplaceable ones," Ye Jian analyzed, "You shouldn't exchange these for silver. Instead, they can exchange for spirit stones, and they can even be priced a little higher."
Leaf Boat said: "Cousin, the spirit stone can be exchanged with money. I had planned to use tens of thousands of spirit stones to build a sect."
Ye Jian hated iron and said: "It's a bad idea to use money to pile resources. You want to start a sect. There are too many places to spend money. If you keep filling up money, it will be a bottomless pit!"
"But I'm not short of money..." Leaf Boat said cautiously, thinking that the person in front of me was the manager of his own fund, "I'm not short of money, right?"
Ye Jian slapped his forehead: "This is not a matter of lack of money, it is that the game cannot be played like this. And if you invest too much money in the game, will your second uncle and aunt will misunderstand you for playing things and be worried? Are you playing games regardless of your body?"
What else did Leaf Boat want to say, Dugu Zhuo grabbed his hand and said, "I didn't plan to let Leaf Boat charge up for the spirit stone. The reason why I am short of silver is that the spirit stone is better than silver."
Ye Jian analyzed: "Whether it is good or not is relative. You know, there are many types of players in the game. Some are willing to spend a lot of money for the game, some just want to improve the strength of the game account by their own efforts, and there are more businessmen who make money from the game. And the studio. You have such a good resource as pill, you can classify these players, divide and conquer them, in order to maximize the benefits."
Duguzhuo even sent a pen and paper to Xiaoer from the shop, and quickly recorded it.
Ye Jian: "Pills such as Ji-Building Pills, Blood Tonic Pills, Qi Pills, and Face-changing Pills are very useful for upgrading and copying. Before the game has a better pill, you can pay a premium. One point to replace them with spirit stones, for players who are willing to recharge.
"You open a shop and exchange the spirit stone for the silver tael. Even if the silver tael is a rare item in the game, but because the spirit stone can be exchanged for real currency, merchants who make money from the game are willing to cash the tael for the spirit stone. In order to receive more If you have more silver taels, you can make a little profit and collect them with spirit stones at high prices. Players who are short of money will come to sell silver taels.
"After you switch to the spirit stones, some self-sufficient players who play games may use these spirit stones in exchange for your premium pill. In this way, you can earn back the spirit stones that are profitable in the exchange of silver. "
Leaf Boat was stunned: "Brother, you are a perpetual machine for making money!"
Duguzhuo glanced at what he had just recorded while Ye Jian stopped to drink water, and asked: "You didn't mention Zhuyan Dan."
Ye Jian: "The people facing these two medicines have to be changed again. How many silver taels do players have? If they make money again, they will not compare to the really rich npc. Jiuchuan City is a big city. , We can try to sell Zhuyan Dan to some big family's female relatives in the house."
Dugu Zhuo: "..."
Leaf Boat: "..."
As expected, someone who can sell rotten vegetable leaves and eggs to Yongye District, the idea is to be different from normal people!
After some business training, Ye Jian saw that there was still an hour left before Leaf Boat went offline, so he called the shopkeeper to check out, and planned to take two business novices to visit the prosperous Jiuchuan City to find business opportunities.
Before leaving the restaurant, the three of them rushed to build the Jidan, and they insisted on eating up to level 30. This time, as a martial artist, Ye Jian got the Jidan for free.
Ye Jian originally planned to let the two of them reach level 29, and rely on eating Zhu Jidan to gain all the experience of level 30-40. He wanted to take advantage of the game loop. Although eating Zhu Jidan above level 30 no longer gains experience, it can always be done at level 29. Bar.
It's a pity that the game is very rigorous, even if you eat Zhujidan at level 29, once your experience has risen enough to rise to level 30, eating Zhujidan will have no effect.
Ye Jian can only give up.
Currently the highest in the ranking is Yimeng Xiaoyao, who has risen to level 31 by frantically absorbing human spirits. The three of Duguzhuo and others rushed to level 30. Although they are second in the rankings, they are tied for the third place with more than 300 players. Second, it is not very eye-catching and did not attract the attention of other players.
When Ye Jian checked the bill, he gave the little second of the restaurant some more tips and asked him about the wealthy people in Jiuchuan City.
The restaurant is the easiest place to get news. Don't underestimate the shopkeeper. They know a lot, but they just refuse to say it.
Duguzhuo had also come to Xiaoer to inquire about the news before, but only got some useless information.
At this time, waiter received the money, knowing that he could speak everything. He immediately told Ye Jian the news about the wealthy families in the city, and proudly claimed that their restaurant belonged to the second wife of Liu Mansion in Jiuchuan City. Dowry, the shopkeeper of their restaurant can talk to the housekeeper of the second lady!
Ye Jian smiled slightly, and took out two Zhuyan Dans and gave them to the shop Xiaoer, asking him to sell these Zhuyan Dans to the second lady for 12,000 through the shopkeeper and the butler, and the money sold would divide him 10%. In addition, another 10% was used to manage the restaurant shopkeeper and the butler.
He told Dian Xiaoer that he still had Zhuyan Dan in his hand. This is a long-term business. The store Xiaoer must not raise the price for greedy money. If he is told to know, he will not find Dian Xiaoer to be a middleman in the future.
The shop Xiaoer answered repeatedly and happily took the pill to sell the money.
Leaf Boat whispered: "This pill is not permanent, will it sell too expensive?"
Ye Jian shook his head: "This game is very inflated. The price of Jiuchuan City is higher than that of Penglai Town. We ate 700 taels of silver at the banquet table just now. How much do you count the daily running water of the restaurant? It's just One of the properties of the second wife of the Liu Mansion, she at least has a net worth of tens of millions, and the sale of 10,000 taels is not high.
"She is a housewife from a big family in the Liu Mansion, and she must know many housewives from wealthy families. These are all those who have money in her hands. After she uses the Zhuyan Pill and tastes the benefits of this pill, she will definitely continue to come. Buy, how long is this Zhuyan Pill?"
Dugu Zhuo said: "The product multiplied by the hour is the duration. The quality of the Yan Yan Dan I refined is 120."
"120 hours is ten days, and the time limit is just right." Ye Jian nodded.
Leaf Boat was worried: "Will Madam Liu be angry when it suddenly fails?"
"I will be angry, but I will definitely buy it again after I have tasted the beauty." Ye Jian showed the profiteer's smile.
Dugu Zhuo calculated the cost of his alchemy and the number of alchemy in a pot, and suddenly felt that it used to be an astronomical number of tens of thousands of silver, and it seemed that he would be able to earn it in a few days.
He rarely took the initiative to say to Ye Jian: "Cousin, add a game friend."
Before, I thought that Leaf Boat plus Ye Jian’s friends would be enough, but now Dugu Zhuo believes that such talents must be made.
Ye Jian sent a friend request to Duguzhuo. After adding friends, Duguzhuo marked the word "Rich" after Ye Jian's name.
Next, Ye Jian took the two of them to go shopping, and walked through the places Duguzhuo had walked again. Relying on the tip offensive that money can make ghosts grind, he got a lot of news that Duguzhuo hadn't even asked about.
For example, after the player has paid enough silver and two deposits, he can rent a shop in Jiuchuan City to open business. Ye Jian asked Duguzhuo for the martial arts start-up money, and rented two shops in the prime location, one specializing in selling pills, and one silver shop specializing in dual-use cash registers.
After opening the store, Ye Jian asked responsibly: "How about the security of this game? Our two stores will not be robbed?"
Duguzhuo smiled and said: "It's better to be robbed, and we can just grab it back."
Ye Jian, who was planning to find Ren Yazi to hire two thugs, saw Duguzhuo's smile and decided to save the money.
In addition, Ye Jian also asked from the owner of the jade shop that the largest pawn shop in Jiuchuan City would auction some treasures in two days. Both players and NPCs can participate, but each participant must pay a thousand spiritual stones as a deposit. , If you want a box, you need to spend one hundred thousand spiritual stones, but the box can accommodate 8 people, these people do not need to be diplomatic spiritual stones.
Leaf Boat was very interested in the auction. He wanted to participate, but when it was 19-21 in the evening, he couldn't go online at all, so he lowered his head and said: "It's enough to pay two people. You go, I can not go."
Even if he wanted to sneak online, the helmet would be confiscated by the caregiver.
Seeing the sad expression on his cousin, Ye Jian thought for a while and said, "You can buy another helmet to transfer your account."
Ye Zhou's eyes lit up.
Ye Jiandao: "I can give you a new game helmet, but I will supervise you in the game. Incidental activities like this can go online, but it's definitely not possible, and you can't stay up late, you know?"
Leaf Boat nodded repeatedly. After thanking his cousin, he couldn't help but look at Dugu Zhuo and said, "I can play with you for a while."
Dugu Zhuo raised his hand distressedly to touch his head. Yu Guang caught Ye Jian's vigilant eyes and could only give up, and smiled gently: "You can't stay up all night, I will also supervise you."
After reaching a consensus, Ye Jian bought the box lavishly. He said that he wouldn't be short of money anyway, so why bother with this spirit stone? He didn't want to sit downstairs and squeeze the bench with others.
Their sect's money and spirit stones have now all been handed over to Ye Jian for safekeeping. What Ye Jian said, Du Guzhuo and Leaf Boat just listened. Besides, Dugu Zhuo was also willing to be alone with Leaf Boat, but it was a pity that there would be one more Ye Ship in the box.
In the following days, Leaf Boat worked regularly and behaved well, but in private, he worked with Ye Jian to transfer the game account to the new helmet. He hid the helmet in a hidden place. In this way, the online time became free again.
In addition to the three of them, many players have also learned about the existence of this auction through other channels and tasks. Some players have paid a deposit. They don't want to buy anything, just want to see the auction in the world of cultivation.
On the day of the auction, due to a guilty conscience, Leaf Boat did not go online in the afternoon. He pretended to be very sleepy. He ate dinner early in the evening, went to his room to rest early, and told people not to disturb him.
The game helmet has been put away, Leaf Boat has always been obedient not to lie, and the person in charge of taking care of him has no doubts. The caregiver helped Leaf Boat get to bed and left.
At 18:30 in the afternoon, Leaf Boat rode to the door of the room in a wheelchair like a thief. For the first time, he quietly locked the door, and then he took out the game helmet and went online with confidence.
He and Duguzhuo agreed to go online at 18:50, and the result of going online 20 minutes earlier is that this time Duguzhuo did not wait at his offline position.
However, immediately after Leaf Boat went online, he received Duguzhuo's paper crane transmission: "I have passed the Level 30 Mass Burial Post dungeon. I estimated the wrong time. I will find you in 10 minutes at most."
"It's okay, I was online ahead of time, I'm not in a hurry." Leaf Boat replied.
The person who had been with Duguzhuo in the dungeon was Ye Jian, and he immediately sent a paper crane transmission to Leaf Boat: "Don’t come, it will scare you, I regret it now, very much later...Ah! Don’t come here. !"
Listening to Ye Jian's scream, Leaf Boat secretly smiled.
He walked into the auction house by himself, and suddenly felt a bit lonely when he saw the players and NPCs coming and going around.
Obviously, he played the game alone at first. Since I met Duguzhuo, no one has ever been there again. Every time Duguzhuo goes online, he has been waiting for him, and he has never separated once.
At this time, returning to the original state, he was a little uncomfortable.
Leaf Boat came to the three people's box, the box was very luxurious, and a lot of desserts were arranged on the table. Leaf Boat's usual diet is a healthy meal for controlling sugar, salt and oil. He is more restrained in life, and he especially likes desserts in games.
But at this time he was alone, Leaf Boat felt that the box was a bit empty, and even the desserts felt dull.
He simply left the box and looked down at the auction venue from the guardrail on the second floor. Seeing the busy people below, the game was very realistic, and even the preparations beforehand looked like that.
At this time, the guests in the boxes on the second floor came one after another. Except for a few of them, probably no player would spend so many spirit stones to buy boxes, and the guests in the other boxes were basically npc.
Leaf Boat gave way to the NPCs and was about to return to his box, but he saw a man dressed in white, who obviously didn't block his face but couldn't see his face, flew upstairs.
There seemed to be a cloud of mist on this person's face, and Leaf Boat couldn't see his appearance.
Leaf Boat didn't want to cause trouble, but for some reason, he couldn't help but look at this person's face.
Seeing Leaf Boat staring at him, the white-clothed man stopped and said, "Why look at me?"
"I don't know, I'm sorry." Leaf Boat quickly apologized. He wanted to withdraw his gaze, but he couldn't do it at all. The man in white attracted him deeply.
The white-clothed man looked up and down Leaf Boat, and came forward to Leaf Boat, with his fingertips lightly tapping on Leaf Boat's forehead.
"Huh?" Leaf Boat touched his forehead with confusion.
The person in white nodded Ye Zhou's forehead and disappeared out of thin air.
At this time, a system prompt came from Leaf Boat's ear: "Ding, congratulations to the player Leaf Boat for triggering the game play mode. In the future main story, you will play an important npc. When you need this npc to play, you will change. Be him. If the fate of this npc can be changed in the final main storyline, the player will get the legendary sword of creation-Su Jian."
"Huh?" Leaf Boat rubbed his eyebrows, "What mode is this? How can the main storyline and NPCs of the game be replaced by players?"
Why did you choose him just because you met the man in white who couldn't see his face? The first main story they encountered before was the story of the Xuanjian Sword Master, and if he plays this npc, he will get a plain sword, so did he trigger the main story?
Leaf Boat asked excitedly: "Who is the npc I want to play?"
He was talking to himself, and he didn't expect the system to answer. Who knows that the system actually replied this time: "The NPC that the player wants to play is the elder Xing Chuifeng, Ye Zhou, of the Great Sky Sword Sect."
