[OP: Hello everyone, I am the miner Yunyan. Yesterday I heard about the incident between Beiming Capital and the number one on the list. I hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to tell everyone the truth.
Five days ago, someone from Beiming City contacted me and said they wanted to purchase 250 pieces of iron ores from me and asked me if I had any.
I replied that they did have them, but the quality was not very high, and asked them if they minded. The people from Beiming City said it was okay and bought them without even looking at the goods or asking the price.
This was undoubtedly amazing news to me at the time. I was very happy and shared it with the miners group. As a result, a level 5 miner told me that Beiming Capital had also contacted him, but there was no news after the other party asked about the price.
Later the matter was left unresolved.
Until yesterday, when the incident at the Southern Market happened.
I just want to tell everyone, there is absolutely no way that the number one player on the list stole those 250 ores!
I mined the ore, and I knew its quality better than anyone. My mining level was less than level 3 at the time, so 80% of the ore I dug was impure (meaning it was crude quality), and only 20% was free of impurities. And to forge a qualified equipment slot, the iron ore must be completely free of impurities! (This is key!)
How can the number one ore be turned into gold, turning my 80% impurity-laden ore into a pure one? (If such a technology really existed, this idiot miner would wake up laughing in his dreams.)
Oh, yes, I remembered one more thing.
A week ago, I was mining in Hughes Highlands and encountered a group of wild monsters. I am a life player and could not defeat the monsters there. I thought I was going to die, but at the critical moment, a female poet saved me.
Yes, this female poet is number one! (Again, emphasis!)
She was also digging that day at Hughes Heights, and she dug up quite a bit.
But I didn’t pay attention to the rankings at that time, and didn’t know she was number one. I thought she was a miner like me, so I wasn’t curious about how she could dig so much ore. Instead, I wondered how a miner could be so skilled?
So I secretly took a photo (I hope the number one sister won't hit me if she sees this post). The photo has the system's date on it, so you can check it out for yourself.
The onlookers couldn't wait to scroll down, only to find that the photos had not been uploaded at all, and they couldn't help but become anxious.
[1st floor: Big sister, can you hurry up? The daylily is getting cold.]
[2nd floor: The host’s home network is not good, it is recommended to change one]
[3rd floor: Ahhh why haven’t I seen the photo yet! ]
…
[9th floor (Original Poster): [picture.jpg]]
The number of replies increased instantly.
[19th Floor: Is this true? No photoshop?]
[20th Floor: It looks real... (I have no evidence, I'm just making this up)]
…
[39th Floor: To reply to the above, I am a professional photographer and photo retoucher. I just took it for verification. No PS, just original screenshots.]
[40th Floor: Wow, is the top guy on the list so awesome? He's also a miner!]
[41st Floor: ...Maybe he's a blacksmith (Looking at the sky.jpg)]
[42nd Floor: Wow, I'm really jealous, I feel like a waste]
[43F: Remove “as if”, thank you]
[44th Floor: Stop digressing. It's now known that the top guy on the list did mine in Hughes Heights a week ago. So why didn't he think of stealing things from the Northern Sea Capital? And the quality isn't very good, cough cough~]
[45th Floor: How could a thief know if the homeowner had money before stealing? He would have to steal first.]
[46th Floor: Okay, then I have another question. A full 200 of the 250 ores are impure ores that can't be forged. How did the number one player manage to create 5 equipment slots? Can someone explain this to me?]
The post suddenly fell silent. Yunyan refreshed the page several times but saw no reply under the 46th floor.
Until the last refresh, someone followed me up the building.
Just look at the ID - No Return Wanderer.
[47th Floor (Bugui Langren): I'm the owner of stall C036, a Level 5 Blacksmith, and I'd like to share my experience. Yesterday, the number one on the list was right next to me, and I carefully observed the equipment slots she was selling. The quality was exceptional, flawless, shiny, and with smooth lines. The equipment must be securely fastened. To craft something of this quality, the iron ore needs to be more than just free of impurities; it also needs to have bonus attributes. So, let me ask you, did the ore you sold to the Northern Sea Capital have any attributes?]
Yunyan immediately replied: [No]
[49th Floor (Never Return Ronin): Confirmed?]
[50th floor (Original Poster): I swear on my reputation as a miner, this is absolutely certain!]
The case was now completely solved, and the players acted as if the truth had been revealed. They began to take screenshots and post them around the world, saying that it was fun to watch the excitement, and soon the world was abuzz with news again.
Some praised Yunyan for having the guts to expose the truth after completing the deal with Beiming City. Some thanked the poster and wished her a prosperous mining business. But many felt sorry for Xia Yao and were disgusted by Yuan Qinglan's despicable actions.
[Sigh, yesterday, everyone pointed at Yin Yao and scolded him. He was the target of so many criticisms. I feel so wronged just thinking about it.]
[I was wrong. I shouldn't have followed everyone else in doubting the boss. I despise myself!]
[Yuan Qinglan is so shameless! She just wanted to get the boss's good stuff for free, but ended up doing this. If she doesn't act, it would be a waste of her acting talent!]
[I heard from my friend that the reason the boss and Yuan Qinglan fell out was because Yuan Qinglan wanted to get something for nothing. He wanted the boss to give him a dungeon strategy, but he didn't want to pay for it...]
"Why should I give it to you for free? I worked so hard to clear the game, and now I have to hand it over just because the guild says so? You didn't brush your teeth this morning, you're so arrogant!"
…
Yunyan felt a lot more relieved as she watched these conversations.
If Yinyao hadn't saved her that day at Hughes Highlands, it would have been a small matter if she died, but it would have been a big deal if the freshly mined ore had been stolen!
She had always wanted to find an opportunity to thank the other party, but the other party was number one on the list, and was completely different from her, a counterfeit who was ranked after ten thousand words. She simply did not have the courage to thank him face to face.
It just so happened that the Yuan Qinglan incident happened again yesterday. After weighing the pros and cons, she decided to stand up and speak for the big sister.
However, do these players have poor reading comprehension? She clearly pointed out another detail in her post, so why didn’t anyone bring it up?
Just as I was thinking about it, someone suddenly asked in the world.
[Strange, since it's useless without any miscellaneous ores, why would the Beiming City waste money on it?]
When she saw the ID, it was Bugui Langren again, the level 5 blacksmith. Yunyan blinked and looked at him.
With his shift of focus to the conversation, more and more blind students began to discover the highlights.
[The miner said the other party didn't even look at the goods, but just asked the price and bought them directly. Is the Beiming City really that rich?]
[That's the opposite of the truth. They're actually short on money. Haven't you noticed? Bei Ming Zhi Du suddenly jumped into the top ten this week. Their guild isn't big, but their level and ranking have risen incredibly fast. What does this mean? It means they've gotten to the top by spending resources!]
"Damn, that finally got me! No wonder they didn't buy the ore from the Level 5 miner; it was too expensive! They couldn't bear to pay, but they had to buy 250 to save face, so they turned to Yunyan Tower Master."
[This means they themselves know that this ore cannot be forged...]
[Awesome! When it comes to shifting the blame, Beiming City is number one!]
Public opinion once again pressed on Yuan Qinglan and the others, and Yunyan was completely proud of herself.
It was because Yuan Qinglan, who came to buy at that time, was rude to her, and his words showed his disdain for her ore.
If you don’t like it, don’t buy it. I sold it to you at a low price and you still keep complaining. It’s really annoying!
At this time, the friend icon flashed a few times and clicked it.
[Bugui Langren: How's it going? This wave of cooperation was good, right?]
Yunyan: Thank you for speaking out.
[Bugui Langren: It’s nothing. I can’t stand Yuan Qinglan’s behavior anyway.]
Miners and blacksmiths are close to each other because of their upstream and downstream relationships in the industry. Yunyan once complained in the group that the employer who bought her ore cursed her many bad words, and he saw it all.
It's not easy for the little girl to mine alone. In addition, she saw with her own eyes yesterday how Yuan Qinglan framed the big boss next door and asked people to rape the big boss's friends. He couldn't bear to see it both publicly and privately, so he took the opportunity to do her a favor.
Yuan Qinglan, who was pinned to death on the ring by Xia Yao, had no way to vent her anger. She could only look at the world players cursing her one after another in great anger!
After finally waiting for 30 minutes, the NPC announced that the PK between the two sides was a draw. There was a burst of laughter from the audience. Yuan Qinglan was so angry that her lips trembled, but she could do nothing and was too embarrassed to stay any longer. She used the private teleportation array to send herself directly back to her own guild.
As soon as I arrived at the guild, I received a message from the colorful bubbles.
[Pao Pao: Qing Lan, that woman is more resourceful than we thought. She even hired a miner and a blacksmith to speak for her. I knew she was a tough guy. I've told you before that she's a scheming person and not as innocent as she looks. Why did you recruit her into the guild?]
Speaking of this, Yuan Qinglan's anger rose again. In the past, others always obeyed her and no one dared to go against her words. But now she met Yin Yao, who not only ignored her face again and again, but also dragged the entire Beiming City into the water.
"It's my brother who specifically asked for her to join. Otherwise, how could I possibly invite her to join?" Yuan Qinglan threw back impatiently.
[Pao Bu: Hey... this is a big deal. Your brother hasn't been online for a few days. What should I do if I come back and find him like this?]
Yuan Qinglan rolled her eyes: [What else can I do? I'm his biological sister, can he really scold me for this?]
After saying that, he closed the dialog box angrily and ignored Bubble's message.
On the other hand, after receiving 800 gold, 50 reputation points and the Baron Badge returned by the Arena Registration Office, Xia Yao left the city without looking back to complete the mission of the Scholars' Academy.
She only needs 50 points of honor. After completing the five tasks today, she can exchange them for the guild establishment order.
The task she received today was very simple, which was to clear out the monsters in the four directions outside the city. It took less than two hours for Xia Yao to return to the city with the results of the task.
Arriving at the Scholars' Academy, Dean Asaya was surrounded by a group of players in the hall. The players were clamoring to take on the assessment tasks in order to gain subsequent honor points.
It had probably been a while since she had seen so many players actively accepting quests. Asaya was a little overwhelmed by herself, but there was no displeasure on her face. Instead, she smiled and assigned tasks to the players one by one, explaining what to do after passing the assessment.
"You see, after you pass it, you will be like her."
Ashaya pointed at the ID ranked first on the honor list - Yinyao.
"She has now contributed 400 Honor Points to the Scholars' House. As a reward, she can redeem any item of equivalent value. However, there are only a few items available for redemption at the moment. Please rest assured that as the Scholars' House flourishes, I will provide you with more and more items in the future~"
As Ashaya finished speaking, the exchange interface appeared in front of the players.
At first, everyone wasn't too impressed with this single item, even a little disappointed. They'd heard from other players that completing quests in the Scholars' Hall could redeem certain special items and skills, but now, seeing only one item on the redemption screen, it was incredibly shabby compared to the Eight Great Professional Halls next door.
However, the next second, someone suddenly shouted.
"Damn it! The order to establish a guild!!!"
"Look, this sign is the founding order certified by the Perth Empire!"
As soon as the player who was shouting finished speaking.
I saw a figure walking slowly in from outside, taking steady steps, with a posture as straight as a tree. Her pure black hair shone brightly in the light, and with every step she took, the ends of her hair fluttered gently at her waist.
The player unconsciously made way.
Then I heard her say, "Hello Ashaya, I'm here to redeem the founding order."
Everyone: …!!!
The author has something to say:
Everyone: Ahhhh, I regret why I didn’t come to the Scholar’s House earlier to accept the mission!
