Chapter 45 The grocery store owner may have lost a lot of money, so he wants to use this opportunity to make up for his losses. He offers...
The grocery store owner, perhaps because he had lost a lot of money, wanted to use this opportunity to make up for his losses and offered two million.
Not to mention whether Ying Yuanxing has so much money, even if he does, he would not accept this offer. If he agrees to it, even if the grocery store owner is an ordinary person, he might raise the price, not to mention that the grocery store owner is a gambler who is eager to make a profit, the offer will only be higher.
Although it is urgent now, Ying Yuanxing cannot be too impatient. This kind of negotiation is like fishing. It requires back and forth pulling of each other.
While Ying Yuanxing was negotiating the price with the grocery store owner, he was also doing preparatory work - raising money.
Although the final price of the grocery store would not be two million, Ying Yuanxing estimated that it would be one million. If the number was lower than this, Ying Yuanxing was worried that the grocery store owner would eventually sell the store to a casino.
After all, when gamblers act on impulse, anything can happen.
If the grocery store is handed over to the casino people, it will be even more difficult to buy it again. After all, he has already made an offer once, and the casino may know it. If he makes another offer, it will be too obvious that he cares about the grocery store. How can the other party not rip him off?
The most valuable thing on the entire farm is the grass that Ying Yuanxing has saved. Although one million is not a small amount, if given enough time, Ying Yuanxing can make a profit without damaging the growth of the grass.
But now, time waits for no one.
Soon, the audience discovered that Ying Yuanxing had become more aggressive in harvesting the grass. In the past, he would harvest a thin layer so that the grass could grow a lot again the next day without delaying its growth. But now, he would just leave a few plants in a small piece of land as seeds for spreading.
After Ying Yuanxing harvested the grass, he was planning to sell it directly on the online store, but suddenly he remembered that he had previously sold it for 500 yuan because he did not know the details of the world. But now, he thought he should raise the price.
But you can't just mention the price casually, you have to find someone familiar to ask.
Ying Yuanxing counted the people around him and finally called Chen Yuan.
"How much do you think a portion of premium fish food is worth?" Ying Yuanxing asked straight to the point.
Chen Yuan still remembered Xuanying's previous words and felt that this was some kind of test. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Sir, this fish food is also sold according to the situation."
"If some of the weirdness that is about to dissipate due to lack of weirdness..."
"Weird?" Ying Yuanxing interrupted Chen Yuan. Chen Yuan didn't understand, but listening to the breathing sound on the other end of the phone, he suddenly remembered that this big weirdo always liked to disguise himself as a human. By saying this, he might have disturbed the other party's interest, so he apologized repeatedly.
"Forget it, just continue talking." Ying Yuanxing lowered his eyes. Even if this world was a strange world, it didn't seem to be much different from what he imagined.
If you think about it from another perspective, this world seems to be not so bad. After all, a world where people eat each other is terrifying. But if ghosts eat ghosts, after reading so many ghost stories, it seems quite common.
"If we can sell the high-quality fish food to those who are about to disappear..." Chen Yuan hesitated for a moment and continued, "then we can sell it at a high price. Even three thousand copies will be snapped up."
In fact, the price of forage grass can be even higher, but the price has dropped to the point where it is almost disappearing, so people usually can't afford it too high. Three thousand yuan per piece is their limit.
"If you are willing to make the existence of the high-quality fish food public, you can send it to the nearest strange food exhibition in Jinzhou City. The strange food you make does not have any impurities and will definitely sell for a high price." Chen Yuan continued.
Weird food exhibition?
Ying Yuanxing checked with the organizer, Hongxing Supermarket. If his hay was sent there, it would have been noticed a long time ago. Besides, what did it mean that there was no impurities at all?
The mysterious substance that Xuanying told him about should be the strange energy. The other party only said that the strange energy would dissipate, so it needs to be absorbed by eating this kind of food, but what are impurities?
Ying Yuanxing hesitated for a moment, but still did not test Chen Yuan. There were still many things he didn't know. If he let something slip and exposed his true situation, it would be too dangerous.
After chatting with Chen Yuan for a few words, Ying Yuanxing immediately gave Chen Yuan a task, asking him to be responsible for selling high-quality fish food, three thousand per portion, and if ten portions could be purchased at one time, half a portion would be given for free.
If Chen Yuan sells ten copies, he can get half a copy for free.
Although the amount of free grass was less than before compared with the previous new customer acquisition activities, Chen Yuan didn't care at all. He was even very excited. Even if it was only half a portion, it was better than nothing.
And that’s not all. If Chen Yuan’s sales are good, according to his sales volume, the total number of copies sold will reach 100, 300, and 700, and there will be surprise gift packages.
When Chen Yuan heard this, his hands holding the phone were shaking. Before Ying Yuanxing mentioned the gift package, he was thinking about selling as much hay as possible to satisfy Ying Yuanxing's business interests and make a good impression.
Now, he really wants to fight to the death.
Chen Yuan had no idea what the surprise gift package that Ying Yuanxing was talking about was, but if it could be called a surprise, it must be some strange food or creature that was rarer than grass, and he had to get it.
…
While Ying Yuanxing was harvesting grass, the barrage area was also very lively.
[The anchor really wants to buy a grocery store. He negotiates the price with the boss while trying his best to sell weird food.]
[But the other party asked for two million. Even if we can bargain, it should be at least one million. The grass is only sold for five hundred per piece. How long will it take to sell it?]
[However, the anchor has harvested so much grass, I feel that the opportunity has come. He only sold more than 20 copies a day before, but now he should be able to buy hundreds of copies. I feel that his chances of grabbing it have increased.]
[I heard that the effect of forage grass is much better than dried fish. Even if you don’t use it yourself, it’s very cost-effective to sell it to the country. If you can buy more, it will be really good.]
[But the anchor is really draining the pond to catch all the fish. It’s fun for a while, but it will take a long time to recover. There won’t be any grass to sell later.]
[I kind of want the anchor to raise the price, but I’m afraid I won’t be able to afford it after the price increase]
[Can the government lend me some Gui coins? It's so hard to see the anchor raising enough money to buy a grocery store]
[There is no other way. The country's ghost coins are also very limited. Although Ying Yuanxing seems to have great potential, it is hard to say what will happen in the future. Moreover, if we help Ying Yuanxing, will other players help when they are short of ghost coins?]
[I still don’t know why Ying Yuanxing wants to buy a grocery store. I feel his behavior is weird.]
After seeing that Ying Yuanxing entrusted Chen Yuan to sell forage grass, and the price of forage grass even reached three thousand per piece, the barrage area became a hot topic again.
[Three thousand per copy, that's it, I really can't afford it anymore at this price. ]
[I wonder if the people who bought the hay before sold it. If they didn’t, the price would have increased sixfold, so they made a lot of money.]
[Although the price is quite expensive, looking at the prices of other strange foods, perhaps this price is relatively normal]
[It’s not normal, in fact it’s a bit expensive. The weirdo on the other end of the phone said that it’s sold to certain weirdos, so the price is so high. Normally it should be more than two thousand.]
[However, the price has increased, so the anchor should not have to worry about money now]
[It’s hard to say. Selling goods takes time. I don’t know if the anchor has enough time.]
Chen Yuan quickly arrived at the farm and took the hay away. Time waits for no one, so he had to start selling it quickly.
Of course, the reason why Ying Yuanxing trusted Chen Yuan so much was because Xuanying controlled Chen Yuan's shadow. In case the other party wanted to escape with the goods or had other ulterior motives, Xuanying could control the other party.
However, when he saw Xuanying, Ying Yuanxing remembered the weirdness and strangeness he had heard before. Just as he was about to ask Xuanying, he saw a big black horse coming back carrying some things. The big black horse stopped in front of Ying Yuanxing.
"Is this for me?" Ying Yuanxing looked at the big black horse, puzzled.
The big black horse nodded.
Ying Yuanxing picked up the big bag with some doubts and found it was quite heavy. When he opened it, he saw a pile of strange coins inside. Although the denominations were not large, such a pile was not a small amount.
"Why are you giving me money?" Ying Yuanxing looked at Xuanying.
"You want to buy a grocery store, but you are short of money. This is the money I..." Xuanying paused for a moment, "I swallowed the money picked up by others. It's a pity that I don't know how to make money, otherwise I can make it for you."
Xuanying had no concept of spending money before, and he basically didn't need to spend money. Naturally, he would not learn how to make strange coins. After all, the essence of making strange coins is to expel one's own energy from the body, which will weaken oneself.
"But don't worry, I will learn it." Xuanying promised.
Ying Yuanxing was silent for a moment, then he walked into the wooden house holding a bag of money in his left hand and pulling Xuanying with his right hand.
[Damn it, the host must have been moved by this weird behavior]
[To be honest, Xuanying's actions are really heartwarming. If you are short of money, he will go and find the money he has saved. It is estimated that he gave all the money he had. No human can do this, not to mention it is weird. It is normal for the anchor to be moved.]
[I shouldn’t, but I’ll take a sip anyway]
Xuan Ying was a little nervous. He could feel Ying Yuanxing's breath fluctuating violently. He wanted to comfort Ying Yuanxing, but he didn't dare to act rashly.
"You want to lick me, come on, use the one you demonstrated last time." Ying Yuanxing threw the strange coin aside and said.
Ecstasy surged in his heart, but Xuanying looked at Ying Yuanxing's face with a slightly gloomy expression, and did not move.
"What? Don't you want to miss him anymore?" Ying Yuanxing noticed that Xuanying didn't move, so he looked up. Although he was a marshmallow without any facial features, he could still see the worried look on his face.
"Did someone make you unhappy?" Xuanying did not answer, but asked instead.
Ying Yuanxing straightened the corners of his lips. He knew what Xuanying meant. If someone made him unhappy, he would help him get revenge.
"Can you become a little more solid and let me hug you?" Ying Yuanxing asked.
"But I don't want your skin, I want your real body." Ying Yuanxing added.
Xuan Ying was stunned for a moment, took a step forward, and his body gradually became smaller. By the time he reached Ying Yuanxing, he was like a larger pillow.
Ying Yuanxing hugged Xuanying tightly. Xuanying's body was slightly cold, but extremely soft. If he exerted too much force with his hands, he would feel like sinking into the black mass.
"I'm fine, it's just that people are easily controlled by emotions." Ying Yuanxing raised the corners of his lips and simply rested his chin on the black ball. He felt his chin sink slightly, but was supported by a force and did not sink completely.
Ying Yuanxing closed his eyes and rested for a while before asking, "Xuanying, what's wrong with you?"
The black ball under his command froze for a moment. Who let Ying Yuanxing know about this?
When Xuanying talked to Ying Yuanxing before, he deliberately avoided the mysterious identity, but unexpectedly, Ying Yuanxing knew it so quickly.
"According to your naming style, I guess it should be related to shadow." Ying Yuanxing said to himself. Yuan Xiu should be weird too, but it is impossible to guess it by listening to the other party's name, but Xuan Ying is too easy to understand.
"You, will you hate me?" Xuanying said in a muffled voice.
"A little bit." Ying Yuanxing said.
Listening to Ying Yuanxing's answer, Xuanying felt as if he was falling into a bottomless abyss, his whole body was cold. It was obvious that people should feel cold, but it was so cold that he could hardly bear it.
"It's not because of your strange identity, but because you tried to hide it from me." Ying Yuanxing looked at Xuanying and said word by word.
Xuanying wanted to explain that he was afraid that Ying Yuanxing would be too scared after knowing Weiyi's identity. After all, he knew how afraid humans were of Weiyi.
But before he could open his mouth, Xuanying swallowed his words back, because after all, this was all out of his selfish motives.
"You know I am a human being, right?" Ying Yuanxing affirmed.
Xuanying said: "I guessed a little bit before."
"You are hiding such an important thing. What if I get into danger while being defenseless and interacting with the weirdness?" Ying Yuanxing asked.
"I will always follow you." Xuanying said in a low voice. Ever since he knew Ying Yuanxing's identity, he, as a clone, has almost always followed Ying Yuanxing.
When at the farm, Little Black Cat and Xuan Ying took over, and when Ying Yuanxing went out alone, he would let his clone hide in Ying Yuanxing's shadow to provide close protection.
After hearing Xuanying's explanation, Ying Yuanxing asked, "Since you were hiding in my shadow, how come you didn't notice me when I followed you last time?"
"It wasn't always there, and that time I couldn't handle so many clones, so I recalled them." Xuanying said. He didn't know whether to be disappointed or relieved. If he hadn't recalled his clone that time, he might have discovered Ying Yuanxing's trace, and his true identity would not have been discovered by Ying Yuanxing.
However, if he had not been discovered that time, he would not have been able to be so frank with Ying Yuanxing, and many things would have to be hidden.
"Don't hide it from me next time, even if it may be for my own good, I don't like such concealment." Ying Yuanxing pinched the black ball under his command, and finally softened his heart. He could use this incident as an opportunity to reprimand Xuanying and gain more control over him, but in the end he couldn't bear it.
"Tell me more about the situation in this world. Don't use pronouns this time. Just tell me everything you know." Ying Yuanxing said.
Xuanying spoke seriously, in fact he didn't know much about the strange world. He had always stayed in Taoxi Village, and his range of activities was limited to that area. However, he was clear about the weirdness, strange aura, and impurities.
Ying Yuanxing listened to Xuanying's words and refreshed the information in his mind. Then he found that the update was not much. It just made the super-powered people become weird. This is why there are so many super-powered people.
The mysterious substance is the strange air. As for the impurities, in other words, they are a kind of poison, or pollution. They exist in large quantities in foods with strange air, and even in the bodies of strange creatures. Once food is eaten in order to absorb the strange air, the impurities in the body will increase.
The more impurities there are, the more strange energy will dissipate. When eating can no longer offset the dissipation of the strange energy, the strange will become weaker and weaker until it finally dissipates and dies.
At the beginning, the conversation between Ying Yuanxing and Xuanying made the audience a little confused, because they found that Ying Yuanxing seemed to have just discovered that Xuanying was weird, and even that this was a weird world, but isn’t this something every contestant knew from the beginning?
Some viewers immediately recalled Ying Yuanxing’s previous performances. At that time, they just thought that Ying Yuanxing was brave, but now it seems that this is not the case.
The Dawn Bureau detected this situation and, in accordance with the previous plan, announced part of the situation on Yingyuan Star.
In fact, Ying Yuanxing’s lack of understanding of the strange world has only been exposed now, which has far exceeded the time predicted by the Dawn Bureau. They even thought they could keep it a secret until Ying Yuanxing returned to Blue Star, but it has been exposed now.
The audience was stunned when they heard the news.
[So, the anchor managed to survive in this weird world so smoothly without any knowledge]
[Usually I get scared when I see one weirdo, I can’t even imagine how the anchor survived with so many weirdos]
[Well, the host didn’t stay up late either, did he?]
[One weird one might be scary, but if all of them are weird, then weird behavior is normal]
[If you want to talk about strange actions, the host’s previous actions were also quite strange]
Although Ying Yuanxing's situation was exposed, the audience was shocked for a while but soon calmed down.
After all, if they knew at the beginning of the live broadcast that Ying Yuanxing knew nothing about the strange world, they would definitely be extremely worried. But the anchor was able to gain a foothold in the strange world when he had no idea about the situation, and now that he has established a firm foothold, it won't be any worse for him to know the truth.
The most important thing was that the news Xuanying said later completely diverted their attention.
[Strange, will it die on its own? 】
[I suddenly feel like I can still hold on. I was always afraid of the weirdness before, and always thought that I could just eat and drink well and then end my life. Now I think that I should just hold on a little longer, maybe I can outlast the weirdness.]
[This is the best news I heard today. I feel hopeful.]
[I was still hesitant about how to make the roasted dried fish. Now I plan to use half to make advanced dried fish, and eat the other half to strengthen my body. I must make sure to kill the weirdo.]
The barrage area was bustling with activity, while the higher-ups of the Dawn Bureau were looking at Ying Yuanxing's live broadcast room with trepidation. They were worried that Xuanying would come to Blue Star after becoming so weak that he would spread the news that eating humans would allow them to survive.
This kind of news just brings hope and then brings despair. How happy the audience is now, how devastated they will be later.
Fortunately, Ying Yuanxing and Xuanying talked for a few words and then stopped talking about these things, allowing the top management of the Dawn Bureau to put their minds at ease and continue with the previous discussion.
The topic they discussed this time was whether or not to send a batch of strange coins to Ying Yuanxing.
After all, ordinary viewers can see that Ying Yuanxing has spared no effort for the grocery store, so they can naturally do the same. The price offered by the grocery store owner is indeed very high. It would be fine if the time was longer, but if the time is too short, what should Ying Yuanxing do if he can't earn so many ghost coins?
One group of people believed that based on the abilities and value that Ying Yuanxing had demonstrated before, it was worthy of the Dawn Bureau's help to him. Even if the reward was more ghost coins, it was necessary to give it as long as it could bring the two sides closer together.
Some people agreed with this view, but felt that the one million Gui coins proposed by the other party was too much. Xia Country did not have too many Gui coins in stock. After all, the players had a high demand for Gui coins. Even if they exchanged them, they would be reluctant to exchange too many.
Now, thanks to the Yuegou app, Xia Guo has collected a large amount of ghost coins, but he has also spent a lot. For example, some time ago, the Dawn Bureau went to expel a ghost domain that occupied a major traffic artery. The ghost coins were consumed to buy ghost objects and food, and the cost was equivalent to a small war.
Obviously, there are many such cases. If they knew exactly why Ying Yuanxing bought the grocery store, they could consider giving him ghost coins. However, the grocery store didn't look special. Ying Yuanxing had rented a fishing tackle store before, and now wanted to buy a grocery store. His actions were haphazard and it seemed like he was just acting on impulse.
It would be fine if there were few ghost coins, but it would not be worth it if there were too many. Even if the country has a lot of money, it cannot be wasted.
Some people directly opposed it, and the reason was very simple. Ying Yuanxing was valuable, but did other players have no contribution? If Ying Yuanxing was to be given so many benefits, how would other players be treated? Those players were also short of Gui coins. If they had more Gui coins, they might be able to improve faster. So how would they give them?
If you want to formulate such regulations, you must go through a lot of discussions before you can finalize them, and Ying Yuanxing obviously can't wait that long.
The parties argued endlessly, but in the end, the proposal was passed because the farm did have great potential. Even if Ying Yuanxing lost a million on the grocery store, as long as the farm was still there and he could continue to grow crops, these strange coins would be nothing.
The most important thing is that in the past they saw the players suffering in the weird world and working hard for a few weird coins, and they couldn't help these players. But now, although the country is still not rich, it is not so tight. If the players need help, they will still help.
Moreover, not to mention those products that Ying Yuanxing had sold cheaply before, because of him, he let No. 1666 talk to the Dawn Bureau and obtained more information, which was very high. They got so much, so why should they be stingy with some strange coins?
However, because it is uncertain how much Gui coins Ying Yuanxing will need, the country decided to provide an uncertain amount of funding, limited to the gap of Ying Yuanxing. The country will provide him with the amount of funding he needs.
It's just that the decision has been made, but how to send the ghost coins over is a problem. There is a player who is about to leave the game, but the problem is that the opponent is far away from Taoxi Village. It is not safe to send the ghost coins over. What if he is robbed by the ghost?
Someone suggested that No. 1666 could give the ghost coins to Ying Yuanxing, but as soon as the suggestion was made, he rejected it himself. This was not a small amount of money. If they gave it to Guiyi, what if Guiyi ran away with the money? They would be dumbfounded.
Some people also suggested sending it to Ying Yuanxing through the Yuegou app, but although accounts on Blue Star can transfer money to each other, buyers on Blue Star cannot transfer money to sellers.
After thinking about it, people found that the only safe way to send money was to buy products from Ying Yuanxing's online store, but the products were all sold out, so they couldn't send money. Now they can only hope that Ying Yuanxing will start selling products.
Ying Yuanxing didn't know that someone wanted to give him money. He was listening to Chen Yuan's report. Although it had only been a few hours, Chen Yuan had already sold more than one hundred pieces of forage and earned more than 300,000 Gui coins.
This method of making money was very fast, but it also drained all the weirdos that Chen Yuan knew in a small area. If he wanted to sell more, he could only go further and find some unfamiliar people.
Ying Yuanxing looked at the news about the exhibition and sighed. It was impossible for him to go, so he checked his phone again.
Ying Yuanxing hadn't played with his mobile phone much before because he was too busy. But now that he has some free time, he looks at his mobile phone again and finds that the online platform of this strange world is quite interesting, and is similar to the human world.
But there don't seem to be many people who are mean, because if you are mean, the other party can't come over to beat you up across the Internet, at least not easily. But it's different if you are weird, if you offend the other party, the other party can really come to you.
Being beaten up is considered a minor punishment, but in serious cases, one could be killed and eaten.
Ying Yuanxing watched some videos and found that some sellers were actually promoting their stores on these platforms, and some were even holding raffles, which made Ying Yuanxing feel moved.
His biggest problem now is that although the products are very good, there are too few of them. Even if he sells them at a high price, the money is not enough. Even if he fishes out all the fish in the pond, Ying Yuanxing is not sure if he can save enough money.
But what if we do some blind boxes for raffles?
