Chapter 74
How did it end up developing into going to the market to buy things?
It's also very suspicious that this group of the lord's guards are not doing their job and are drinking in the sun in broad daylight!
On the way to the market, the five people were overwhelmed by a strange feeling. They had never encountered such a situation in Melo City. Although the solution proposed by Bai Ye was very effective, when they thought about it, they couldn't tell what was wrong.
However, soon after seeing the goods sold in the market, the five people's attention was completely attracted -
The rare blue equipment [Night Walker] is only sold for 8 silver coins!
The five people who had a vague premonition that they would be ripped off were extremely surprised. It was like a roller coaster of surprise. If they bought this in a store in Melo City, the price would have increased by one or two silver coins.
Even though the players are almost level 20 now, they are basically equipped with excellent equipment. The only way to obtain rare equipment is to complete tasks or purchase it in towns.
Rare equipment in NPC village and town shops is considered a treasure, so it is marked with a high price. Although it is sold in the main city store, the retail price will also be higher due to the main city's taxes and rents. If the favorability in the inner city is not enough, there will be no discount.
So when Ye Bai offered a relatively high market price, the five people instantly had the illusion that it was a "reasonable price".
"Buy! I'll buy!"
The player named Binghuo who was caught said immediately.
He was the cause of the incident, and now the other four companions felt that they were implicated by him. To be an agent, it would be impossible for him not to understand the ways of the world. Seeing this, he quickly spoke up first.
Moreover, the properties of the night clothes are also very good. It is suitable for players who often fight monsters at night. The special stealth effect can reduce the monster's alert range, which means that after equipping it, you can enter more dangerous areas.
After hearing this, several others also reacted and said, "I'll buy it too!"
Even if the total assets of each of the five of them are only around 8 or 9 silver coins, this piece of equipment is indeed worth spending all their money to buy.
The basic equipment level of a first-level player is excellent to rare equipment. The higher-level rare equipment, even among the NPCs in the Myriad Worlds, corresponds to the second-level profession.
Ye Bai, who is equipped with rare and legendary equipment, is a rich man among the rich. There is no one like him in the entire game. He needs the support of money, money, and money, as well as some connections.
The five people would not be reluctant to spend money at this time. As long as they successfully obtained information from Baiye Village this time, the civilization behind them would also give them more funds for activities.
There was no such thing as a missed opportunity. The rare equipment sold in the main city had different attributes and might not be suitable for them. Even if there was suitable equipment, there were usually only one or two, and if you were slow, it would be quickly bought by someone else. Unlike here, there were exactly five pieces...
Uh, five?
In the end, the five people emptied their savings in their backpacks and bought a nightgown each in Baiye Village, restoring their favorability back to the neutral level.
Bai Ye, the legendary big boss, has always been easy to talk to. Before leaving, he generously gave each of them a loaf of bread baked in a bakery next to the market. The store's promotional slogan was very exaggerated, saying that the bread was sold to other worlds and was deeply loved by the bigwigs there.
As night fell, the curfew in Baiye Village began. The five people logged off with a dreamy look on their faces and went to report today's situation to the organization behind them.
When asked about their experience here, everyone's expression was very difficult to describe.
Soon, the research groups of the three civilizations behind this summarized the first rule for future actions in Baiye Village - don't touch the flowers and plants in Baiye Village.
The next day, the five players who had experienced the "new type of retail" did not show up again. They were probably going to fight monsters nearby or report to their faction.
Ye Bai, who had nothing to do, was in the territory's market, like a fish butcher in RT-Mart, prying open the [Blood River Clams] and [Elemental River Clams] that he had bought from Tut City and Melo City one by one.
Because he was busy dealing with Dilina's task and making wildebeest traps, Ye Bai forgot about these blind boxes and kept them in his backpack. He only remembered them now.
You lose a 'Blood River Clam', and gain a 'Clam Meat'.
You lose a 'Blood River Clam', and gain a 'Clam Meat'.
【you……】
You lose a Blood River Clam, and gain a Tranquility Fishhook.
"Huh?"
Ye Bai let out a light exclamation and stopped working. He had been working for most of the day, opening 23 clams in a row, and finally found something different.
[Anesthesia Fishhook]
Level: Rare
Attribute: Fishing gear
Effect - Anesthesia: After being hooked for 8 seconds, the fish will be completely anesthetized and the highest capture level can be obtained.
"It's a good thing. Although it may not be useful, take it with you for now."
Ye Bai muttered as he put the anesthetic fish hook into his backpack.
There is a 9% chance of finding all kinds of strange and bizarre items in river clams. The anesthetic fish hook is a kind of fishing gear. As the name suggests, it can be used for fishing in the water with a fishing rod and fishing line.
Fishing is also a life skill, and you can catch different fish from different waters. However, any life skill is not easy to develop later. Advanced fishermen can catch various aquatic creatures with magical powers. Their blood, scales, and organs are all prop materials.
The so-called capture grade is the final harvest status, representing the freshness of the fish. It is still alive when it is caught with anesthetized hooks. The higher the freshness, the more effective materials can be obtained.
Ye Bai wanted to continue opening the clams, but at this moment, he suddenly heard the villagers' exclamations.
She looked up and saw a familiar hot air balloon in the sky, slowly floating towards the territory. It was indeed the traveling merchant.
The agents who had just come online saw this scene, took screenshots immediately, and then immediately went offline to send it to the power research group for analysis.
Soon, the research team came to the conclusion of the effect of the [Traveling Merchant] policy card.
study!
The research team immediately released it and started experiments in the player territories under the jurisdiction of the faction, just in time for the territory to be upgraded to level two.
However, they soon discovered that due to the lack of policy slots, the development of the territory was seriously slowed down, and an epidemic broke out when new refugees arrived. Although they raised game money to buy some supplies and herbs from traveling merchants, the gains were nothing compared to the losses.
The research team then realized that Bai Ye’s level in creation must be very high, with more slots. Learning everything would only harm them!
Of course, this is all in the past.
At this time, after the traveling merchant's hot air balloon landed, Ye Bai, who was standing aside, saw the person coming out of it. It was Kazmai who had come here last time.
This scene made Ye Bai realize the flexibility of this world and that the favorability of NPCs can play a greater role. Originally, the system set the appearance of traveling merchants to be randomly refreshed, but now the reappearance of Kazmai undoubtedly confirmed that the player's actions can make a greater impact.
"Oh, my respected friend, noble lord, look at what good things I have brought you this time! I am sure you will be satisfied!"
As soon as he saw Ye Bai, Kazmai came forward and greeted him warmly.
Source Energy Crystals are hard currency and there is no shortage of buyers everywhere. The Source Energy Crystals he exchanged from Ye Bai last month made him a lot of money, so he was naturally very enthusiastic about Ye Bai at this time.
"That would be great."
Ye Bai smiled and walked forward, and immediately three familiar rows of shelves appeared in front of him.
Ye Bai glanced at the various basic supplies in the front row and looked directly at the purple high-end items in the last row. Immediately, her eyes lit up.
Sure enough, clearing out the shelves last time paid off, there were drawings!
Not only that, next to the drawing, there is also a purple item of higher value.
After reading the content, if there is a page for Ye Bai's favorability towards NPCs, you will definitely see that her favorability towards Kazmai has skyrocketed.
The commodity that is more expensive than the drawings is a pair of sheep with golden wool and black limbs and faces.
【Black Gold Sheep】
Level: Rare
Growth period: 30~60 days
Output: Black Golden Wool
Black gold sheep are one of the most advanced economic livestock in the universe. The black gold wool they produce can be spun into yarn for further processing, or directly used as fillings for high-end clothing. It is a luxury product after some processing.
Seeing Ye Bai's expression, Kazmai patted his round belly proudly and said, "These two little babies are good things that every lord wants. I'll only sell you 5 gold coins or 10 energy crystals each."
"No problem, I'll buy it."
The price is not cheap, but the Black Gold Sheep is so precious that it is in short supply. Since it has been delivered to the territory, Ye Bai will certainly not miss it.
When he was in the Merchant Guild, Ye Bai increased the purchase of a batch of livestock and arranged for the villagers to build ranches in advance. As of today, two ranches have been built. After buying these two black gold sheep, they can be sent to the ranch immediately.
Ye Bai now has a total of 29 gold coins, 23 silver coins, and 55 bronze coins. Among them, there are 10 gold coins obtained from killing the Crocodile King BOSS, 60 silver coins paid to the territory guards and soldiers, and 40 silver coins from selling night clothes to five players.
This time Ye Bai plans to use gold coins for the transaction. The source energy crystals will still be useful after the town is upgraded, so there is no need to sell them for the time being.
Then, Ye Bai turned his gaze to the drawing.
[Marching Boots Production Drawing]
Description: How to make the equipment 'Sprinting Boots'
Required Building: Tailor Shop
Creator restrictions: Tailor
Materials: Animal hide x4, refined gold x2
This is another blueprint that can be used to mass-produce equipment ranging from sophisticated to rare level, and it just matches my own "pillar industry". The price is 6 gold coins, so I bought it!
The rest were some food, candles, seasonings, cowhide, flax and other supplies that would never run out. Ye Bai took a quick look and cleared them out.
In the end, adding everything up, Ye Bai spent a total of 19 gold coins. Because she had cleared out all the goods again, Kazmai generously gave her a discount and also gave her 10 points of personal favorability.
After all the transactions, the number of gold coins on Ye Bai's body reached 10, which was "precarious".
"I don't have much money left..."
Ye Bai looked at the player who was observing the market from the side.
They immediately shuddered and felt inexplicably cold all over. They quickly turned around and left as if nothing had happened.
In addition to harvesting leeks, it seems that I still have to kill some BOSSes to get some gold coins. I don’t have much gold coins on me, and I always feel insecure.
Ye Bai sighed in her heart, but she didn't know what other forces with only 10 gold coins in liquid funds would think if they knew her sigh.
Suddenly, Ye Bai noticed that the alarm he set was about to ring, and he logged off without thinking.
At this time, there are less than 10 minutes left before the spacecraft arrives at Phantom Sea Star.
After returning to reality, Ye Bai's spirit body sensed a change in the surrounding magnetic field and released the shielding on his personal terminal. The next moment, he received a prompt from his personal terminal:
[A new communication signal has been received. Do you want to allow access? ]
【yes】
With consent, Ye Bai opened the 'skylight' above his head, and the transparent cabin faithfully reflected the scene outside.
At this time, the spaceship Ye Bai was riding on seemed to be slowly entering a space station.
A blue-purple planet shrouded in a dreamy color appeared in her sight. It was orbited by two satellites. In the farther orbit of this planet, two planets could also be seen orbiting around the stars in the galaxy.
The signal just received sent a message to Ye Bai:
"Dear passengers, welcome to the Fantasy Sea Galaxy."
The first volume ends here.
