380 When the duck is used
At 1:26PM, Lin Sanjiu, the No. 57 player who had just come out of the hotel, had 96 physical strength at the moment.
"What does a two-way transaction mean......" Lin Sanjiu muttered while holding the half-drunk free drink in her hand - she didn't plan to return the cup until she had completely drunk the drink: "...... Do you want me to buy something and sell it to the store here? β
After learning that this part of the road would not involve fighting, she relaxed a lot, and paced slowly, looking around leisurely, towards a small green-tiled building on the other side of the road.
According to the people at the hotel, if you want to earn stamina, you must first go to this two-story small building - the appearance of the small building is quite a bit of ancient Chinese style, green tiles and white walls, black wood window frames, and the two varnished wooden doors do not even have a sign except for the brass ring handles, so you can't tell what the place is.
Pushing open the door, as soon as he crossed the threshold, Lin Sanjiu was suddenly firmly caught by the object hanging in the center of the room.
"Yo, this guest officer, there's a good seat inside-" A human head suddenly emerged from behind the long wooden counter, a man with a clever smile on his face, and a white towel on his shoulder: "Are you eating, or trading?" β
Lin Sanjiu was still a little stunned for a while, didn't bother to answer, and first looked around the hall on the first floor.
From the outside, the small building isn't huge; It's just that its entire floor has been opened up to form a very spacious hall. Except for a few tables and chairs in a few corners far away. Perhaps the most striking thing is the wooden counter in the center of the hall and a long notice board hanging on the wall behind it.
The notice paper is embedded with a yellow wooden frame, which occupies most of the wall; It was obviously written on rice paper ink, but when Lin Sanjiu's eyes fell on the paper, she clearly saw the change of words - the number after "pure water/L" changed from "0.23" to "0.25".
ββ¦β¦ This, what is this? Lin Sanjiu asked Xiao Er beside him, and his eyes lingered on the notice board with surprise.
"The guest officer must be the first time to come back?" Xiao Er smiled, "Then I'll give you a basic explanation." We originally called Yunlai Inn here. Since the business was stolen by the hotel opposite. The shopkeeper started a trading business by the way...... As a result, now everyone calls this place the Yunlai Exchange. You see, is the notice board divided into several large pieces? β
Lin Sanjiu nodded stupidly.
"There are currently 12 roads in the amusement park, and all players on the last section of the road will be entered into the leftmost column...... Right. There is no final hurdle on other roads. No matter where you are. You must collect 3,500 HP to reach the finish line. In addition to the serial number, there is also a transaction status; Let's say you're number 57, right? You keep looking down. β
Following Xiao Er's instructions, Lin Sanjiu's gaze fell. Originally, number 41 was on the edge of the paper. But as she looked, the list scrolled upwards as if perceivingly, and soon revealed number 57. Behind her number, she saw two small words "Static", while the other numbers were "Buy" and "Sell".
"In the second column, there is information about all the stores on the 12 roads - they mainly put information about the products they sell, but occasionally there may be information about purchases. If you want to buy and sell things on the Frog Road, you don't have to go to the Frog Road, just go through an exchange; You can also choose whether to buy virtual inventory or buy physical goods, which is very convenient. β
"The third column is material information. This integrates the resources sold by players and stores to arrive at the total amount of materials on sale and the real-time market reference average price, and the number you see refers to how much stamina you have; When there are more people who sell, the price of materials falls, and when more people buy, the price of materials rises...... Isn't it easy to understand? It also has another function, for example, if you want to buy bullets, then click in from here and you can see all the sellers who sell bullets. β
With Xiao Er's point, sure enough, the ink on the paper quickly faded, and it was reassembled into a "bullet list"; Lin Sanjiu saw that there were only five stores on the list, and there was only a slight difference in priceβif he relied on such a distance to make the difference, he was afraid that he would have to pay for the handling fee.
Xiao Er pointed to the far right side of the notice board again: "The last column is trading news, if you are interested, you can also take a look." β
There are not many words in the "trading news", and Lin Sanjiu swept it at a glance; At this time, the news that was scrolling was about the opening of a branch of a restaurant called "Lips" on the Velvet Cake Road.
Velvet Cake ...... This isn't where Kurosawa is. This thought flashed through Lin Sanjiu's mind - I don't know if Kurosawa Ji has also entered the last part of the road? And what is his gamer number?
Although she didn't think about it, she vaguely felt that if she could have an alliance, it would be much easier to earn stamina; But now is not the time to talk about that. Putting aside this thought for a while, Lin Sanjiu turned his head and asked, "Can I talk to these players and stores through the exchange?" β
Xiao Er nodded and smiled: "Of course you can." However, you will not be able to receive it until the other party appears on the exchange...... Generally speaking, we charge 1 HP for each message sent, and receiving and replying to messages is free. However, you are a VIP guest, and we will not charge for your information. β
Unexpectedly, McCuckle's ability came in handy so quickly - Lin Sanjiu nodded, and asked another question: "Then how much do you charge for each transaction?" β
"Five percent of the transaction value β and of course, only three percent for you."
If the transaction amount is large, this can be said to be a very good offer; However, Lin Sanjiu only has 96 physical strength points on his body now, and he can't feel much difference at all.
After thanking the shopkeeper, Lin Sanjiu found a chair and sat down, sipping the drink in his hand while staring at the notice board that changed from time to time.
β¦β¦ She's going to have to figure it out.
To earn as much stamina as possible. She had to think about how to make money β just like making money, in principle, it is inseparable from buying low and selling high......
"There are about 20 players on the 12 roads who have entered the trading mode now, which is much more than I thought." In order to better straighten out his thinking, Lin Sanjiu forced Mr. Yi to come out as a listener: "But the store is different...... I've been scrolling down for almost five minutes, and I haven't bottomed out yet, so I don't know how many stores are on the list. β
Teacher Yi yawned in her mind.
"The 20 players are the same as me, and they all want to accumulate enough stamina to reach the finish line early, so the stamina that flows out of the players' hands must be very small...... Everyone is avoiding consumption outside of cost. Lin Sanjiu didn't expect Teacher Yi to have any good ideas, and said to himself: "And even if each person has an average of 100 points of physical strength." This value is not low. It only adds up to 2,000 points, so it's not enough for me...... It seems that the focus is still on how to earn stamina from the store. β
That being said, but she looked at the list of stores for a long time, and she didn't see a few acquisitions; Prices are about the same everywhere - the only one that wants to buy. It is more appropriate to say that it is a finding notice: "I accidentally lost a dog leash." Now willing to redeem it for 20 HP; If there are other dog leashes. You can also consider purchasing it. β
With the idea of "it doesn't cost money to ask anyway", Lin Sanjiu took his [slave girl's bondage rope] and went to Xiao Er's place to askβa minute later, the response from the owner of that shop came: "...... Well. I don't think it's very appropriate to leash a dog with sex toys. β
It's not a sex toy!
Lin Sanjiu didn't know what to say, so he put away the rope with a smile. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she turned around and asked the shopkeeper: "...... I see that there are several players who are 'selling', what are they selling? Sold to whom? β
"There are a lot of things that can be sold, they may be selling their own special items, they may be selling their own services...... Both players and stores can purchase it if they need it. Aren't there different types in the list of supplies? β
Lin Sanjiu glanced up, and sure enough, he found the two sub-items of "human service" and "special items", with a few lines of words hanging sparsely in them. It's still hanging at the moment, which probably means that no one has come to buy it for a while.
The shopkeeper smiled, and then sat back behind the wooden counter, "If you can't figure out what to trade, why don't you go out for a walk?" β
Lin Sanjiu thought about it, and looked at the notice board carefully for a while-she carefully studied the list of merchants according to the classification for a long time, and found a paper note and wrote a lot of information; Only then did he nod and turned out of the cloud to exchange.
"What, what's your plan here?" Although Mr. Yi was not very interested in this, he still asked.
"I'm not particularly business-minded," Lin Sanjiu responded, followed the pumpkin road, and looked at the shops one by one: "...... So I thought of a plan, and I didn't know if it would work. β
Without waiting for the teacher to ask what the plan was, she had already stopped in front of a store, pushed the door and walked in.
If you look at it suddenly, you don't know what this store is for. The black-painted ceiling, walls, and floors, punctuated with sleek blocks of bright pink geometry, look intense and modern β of course, the Star Amusement Park seems to ignore architectural uniformity β and the hall is empty except for a cartoonized pink lip sign on the wall, indicating that this is the "Lips" restaurant.
"I'm sorry for this young lady," Sure enough, after walking two steps, a waiter in a black and pink apron came out from behind a plant: "...... Our shop hasn't officially opened yet, and you see, we don't even have tables and chairs. β
The trading news said that "Lips" was going to open a new branch, which was set on the Pumpkin Road - I don't know if it was a coincidence, or because it was going to open here before it appeared on the news of the Yunlai Exchange.
"I know, I'm just here to see." Relying on the effect of [ScroogeMcDuckPower]1, Lin Sanjiu commanded unceremoniously, "Isn't that a menu?" You take one. β
The waitress was stunned for a moment, and sure enough, she pulled out a copy from a stack of menus and handed it to her.
"You know, I'm a very picky person," Lin Sanjiu put on a rich man's appearance, picking through each page of the menu: "...... Where do you get your restaurant's ingredients from? If it's not good, I won't come to eat it. β
The waitress also seemed to be shocked by her false "wealth", and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, our ingredients are all delivered by the best raw material stores in the Star Amusement Park - you must have heard of 'Waben', right?" They are our exclusive distributors at Lips. β
Of course, Lin Sanjiu didn't know what Heben was - she nodded expressionlessly, returned the menu that cost dozens of points for each dish in her hand, and went out in the waitress's respect.
"Oh, it's so expensive, who will come to eat," As soon as he left the other party's sight, Lin Sanjiu exhaled and quickly found the note he had just written down. "And Ben...... and this ...... Ah, there you go, they're an ingredient provider based on the Frog Road, and they're currently selling eggs, snowflake beef, lettuce, and mozzarella cheese. β
According to what I heard from Xiao Er, on this part of the road, whether it is a player or a store, what can be purchased is the same - the exchange represents the "market", and what is in the market can be bought; Even if you bypass the exchange and trade privately, you will still be forcibly deducted the handling fee and recorded in the record.
"Of course, a restaurant needs to buy more than these few things," Lin Sanjiu muttered to himself as he looked at the small note and continued to walk forward: "...... Is it to simplify the level of complexity? β
The next was a souvenir shop, the next was a clothing storeβshe resisted the urge to buy a dress and change out of her bathrobe, and she walked through and asked about everything.
After going all the way like this, Lin Sanjiu finally understood a little bit of the reason why Kurosawa liked this copy.
Even if it's a copy, but when you wander in it, you can really forget your real situation for a while - forget all the ends, struggles, **, survival...... Looking at the variety of shops with different styles, it is like returning to a peaceful and developed human society.
ββ¦β¦ I have one last question," Lin Sanjiu smiled at the shopkeeper in front of him, "Is there a bank here?" β
The shopkeeper, who was pouring her tea, shook his head.
β¦β¦ This is a bit of a disappointment.
After drinking this cup of tea and asking the shopkeeper for a while, Lin Sanjiu naturally stood up without buying anything and walked outside the store.
"I see you're getting a little cheeky now," Mr. Yi's voice sounded embarrassed, "...... I was embarrassed just now. β
Lin Sanjiu sighed. "You can't stand this? Then there is something even more shameless. β
"What are you going to do?"
Lin Sanjiu did not answer directly. Think about it, the news is almost collected now...... With a slight smile, she turned on the [Consciousness Mimic] and whispered: "Scrooge. Mack Duck. (To be continued.) )
