Cotton Country is rich in cotton and cloth, which are its main economic pillars. The capital of Cotton Country also gathers all the best tailors on the planet. Most of the houses lining the streets are clothing stores, and most of the streets are also filled with merchants coming from all over the world. Nine out of ten ships at the docks are transporting clothes and cloth.
Wang Xiaohai asked some businessmen who traveled around the world and learned the general information about the countries on this planet. Cotton Country can only be considered a medium-sized country.
Wang Xiaohai took the two jade pendants in his hand to the pawn shop to exchange for some money. Anyway, the two jades were useless to him. He exchanged them for a total of twenty taels of silver. Ten taels for one jade pendant was considered a good piece of jade.
This planet is still in the feudal era, so the main currency is still silver, unlike modern and super-modern societies, which mostly use paper money and virtual currency.
Wang Xiaohai tried to summon the extra-dimensional store system, but unexpectedly it succeeded.
"Hello, hey - you've changed your planet again. You now have 190 dimensional coins. Do you need me to apply for a new card?" said a mechanical synthetic female voice.
"There's no rush to get it reissued. I just want to ask, how much silver can I exchange for one dimensional coin?" Wang Xiaohai still wanted to earn money to exchange for the perfect martial arts secret book.
"Let me analyze it. This planet belongs to an extremely backward civilization, so the value of exchanging it for dimensional coins will not be too high. One hundred thousand taels of silver can be exchanged for one dimensional coin." The virtual trader of the dimensional store appeared in front of Wang Xiaohai. She was an image of a cute cartoon girl with two ponytails.
"Wasn't there only sounds but no people before?" said Wang Xiaohai.
"The store system discovered that when traders present themselves as beautiful and lovely, it increases trading volume by 3% and reduces prices by 5%. That's why they created us to trade," the ponytailed girl said happily. "Our store exists solely to profit from the price difference. We can only make a maximum of 10% profit per transaction. If we could earn an extra 5% on each trade, the profits from countless transactions would be unimaginably huge."
"You tell me so bluntly, aren't you afraid that it will increase my disgust and then reduce trading volume?" Wang Xiaohai said.
"No, with your personality, you won't be disgusted by a gentle, cute and adorable girl like me." The cartoon girl with ponytail spun around in her pleated skirt and gave Wang Xiaohai a sweet smile.
Wang Xiaohai admitted that he was not disgusted. He had to say that this other-dimensional store system was really amazing. It could even study men's psychology thoroughly.
"No, if the person trading with your store system is a centipede man or a mantis man, your presence will not increase the transaction volume or lower the price." Wang Xiaohai said.
"In that case, the system store will naturally create a beautiful female centipede to trade with it, so you don't have to worry about that." The comic girl said, "Do you still need to trade?"
"No need. I'll come back to you when I have more money." Wang Xiaohai said.
"Honey, I'm leaving now. Bye. Remember to give me a good review on the employee website!" The cartoon girl's body turned into a ray of light and flew into the system interface, and then the virtual interface closed.
"Good reviews, bullshit! One dimensional coin costs 100,000 taels of silver!" Wang Xiaohai came back to his senses after the interface closed. "This system must have learned to charm me. From now on, I must stick to my original intention and never compromise with the system store." If the comic girl negotiated the perfect martial arts manual worth 100,000 dimensional coins down to 110,000 and then sold it to Wang Xiaohai, he would be at a huge loss!
Wang Xiaohai calculated in his mind - the perfect martial arts secret book requires 100,000 dimensional coins, which is equivalent to 10 billion taels of silver. The treasury of a medium-sized country like Cotton Country can only have 100 million taels of silver at most. A large country may need several times more, but there should be no more than ten large countries on this small planet. In this way, he has to launder all the large and medium-sized countries on this planet to get enough money to exchange for the perfect martial arts secret book!
Wang Xiaohai's heart was pounding. He was truly tempted. With desire came greed. He hadn't worked hard to make money before because he thought success was impossible. Now that there seemed to be a chance, why not go for it? He figured since he was only robbing the treasury and not killing or setting fire to anything, it shouldn't be a big deal. The royal family and nobles were living off delicacies and feasting every day, so asking them to contribute wouldn't be a big deal!
Wang Xiaohai was struggling with his conscience and kept hypnotizing himself. Five minutes later, he made a decision - to do it!
Set a small goal - first plunder the treasury of the Cotton Country!
There must always be a goal in life to have the motivation to live, but you can't be too hasty in everything. You have to plan slowly. After all, it is a big deal to plunder a planet, not a small matter!
Wang Xiaohai walked on the road and observed the shops around him. The people coming in and out were all wealthy people wearing fancy clothes, and they were accompanied by two or three shop assistants in linen clothes carrying things.
"Brother, can I ask you something?" Wang Xiaohai asked a businessman who was passing by him.
The merchant wore a felt hat and a fur coat, and was followed by three servants. He looked at Wang Xiaohai with contempt - this young man, dressed in coarse linen clothes, looked like a servant, yet he dared to talk to him!
Men who hunt and herd on the grasslands all wear animal skins or coarse cloth. No one would wear gorgeous silk clothes to hunt, as it would be inconvenient for running.
Wang Xiaohai thought that this person was a little strange. He didn't answer any questions, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He planned to turn around and ask someone else.
But just as Wang Xiaohai took a step away, the felt hat merchant cursed: "Who do you think you are? How dare you talk to me?"
Wang Xiaohai stopped and wondered if this guy had a problem with his brain. Merchants valued harmony and a smile, so how could this guy, with such a violent temper, possibly do business?
This man was indeed in a bad mood. Yesterday, his favorite concubine eloped with the family security guard. He was furious, but there was nothing he could do. The world is so big, and it is extremely difficult to find someone who is hiding.
"You..." The merchant in the felt hat wanted to curse again, but Wang Xiaohai grabbed his neck and lifted him into the air.
The three servants shouted and rushed towards Wang Xiaohai.
Wang Xiaohai threw the merchant in the felt hat at the three men with great force. The three men hurriedly caught it. The merchant's head was twisted at a strange angle, and he was obviously dead.
Wang Xiaohai originally wanted to find out more information, but now it seems unnecessary. He can just let the Cotton Country issue a wanted notice, and then he can legitimately oppose the palace and take the opportunity to rob the national treasury. People need a reason to do things, whether it is a real reason or a self-made reason. In fact, the strong do not need a reason at all, they can do whatever they want. This is why so many people want to be strong, because they are free and can do whatever they want without worrying about any rules.
It is not a pity for a weak and arrogant person to die. It is considered as paying for the mistakes he made.
Wang Xiaohai thought it would be better to have a legitimate reason, but it didn’t matter if he didn’t have one. He only cared about whether he could get the result.
