Chapter Twenty-Nine: Running Merchants
The big dragon once said: There is a lot of money in the world, and what you lack is just a way to hold the money in your hands. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
In this regard, the shallow blood deeply agrees.
Similarly, the second world is not short of money, although it is only the beginning stage, and the player does not have much money in hand at the moment, but the NPC has it in hand, and there are many more.
And the nobles and chieftains of each formation are all local tyrants, okay, one hundred thousand gold coins is nothing at all. As the president of the Astrana branch of the mercenary union, the Dark Dancer actually dominates all the mercenaries in the entire Gray Valley Forest, and is one of the most powerful people in the south of the Night Elf Clan.
However, no matter how rich the Dark Dancer is, it doesn't matter if he is shallow-blooded, and the second world does not have such a setting as a mentor to sponsor an apprentice, so the money still has to be obtained through his own efforts.
The purpose of the second world is to let human beings find the corresponding fun in the virtual world, in reality businessmen play a very important role, and their greatest fun is of course to make money, so in order to take care of them, the second world can find business opportunities everywhere in the game.
Although Lightblood is not a businessman, he has been in the second world for so long, and as a player in the top ranks, he is still the management of a large guild, and it is inevitable to deal with a lot of money.
So shallow blood knows a lot of ways to make money.
The easiest one is to speculate, speculate on land, fry skill books, speculate on equipment, etc., through the grasp of the price, Light Blood can easily exchange all the items that pass through his hands for the maximum economic benefits.
But this method requires two conditions, the first is capital, without which it is useless to say anything; The second is the market, and economic activity must be built on the basis of the market, and without buying and selling, the arteries of the economy cannot flow at all.
At present, there are no two conditions, and the only thing that shallow blood can do is the primitive accumulation of capital.
In addition to the equipment that can't be moved, the assets that can't be moved are only two skill books, superior-level death withering and normal-level heavy attacks, and the rest can be taken out and traded.
He counted the capital, 129 candles and 15 rusty shovels, 10 worn-out mallets and 10 quenching stones.
These are all obtained from the Crypt Kobolds, and although there are quite a few, they are not of much value.
For light blood, the easiest way to deal with it is to sell them all to Deanna, and as a "sister", at least the fairest price will be given.
But it was simply not enough for the shallow blood, who was in dire need of money now, so he decided not to sell it to Deanna.
Even if you are an ant, you have the value of your existence.
The same applies to all objects, and in the second world, anything that can fit in a backpack has a place where it can be fulfilled.
So Shallow Blood decided to use his own experience to realize the value of the item.
With the vague impression in his mind, Light Blood ran to the west of the city, looking around in the open area, looking for the target person. He wanted to ask the other NPCs, but he couldn't remember her name.
Call...... That...... What?
Suddenly, a female voice came from behind the light blood, "Young Demon Hunter, can you help Inhil?" ā
Right! It's called Inhill...... Forehead?!
When Lightblood looked back, it was indeed his target, Ms. Inhill. Light Blood couldn't find her, but he didn't expect her to take the initiative to find Light Blood.
"Is there anything I can do to help you? Ms. Inhill. Shallow Blood asked politely, in fact, he had already been clear about her request.
"My father is going to have his birthday in 10 days, and I hope to get a hundred candles to highlight the night of his 100th birthday. The kobold in the crypt north of the city can get the candle I want, will you help me? ā
System Prompt: Quest Birthday Fire, Difficulty C, Collect 100 Candles and Give them to Inhil, Quest Reward Money, Accept or Decline?
Alas...... Your father's birthday is ten days later......
Accept!
Light Blood directly opened Inhill's trading bar and traded a hundred candles.
"Great! Thank you so much young demon hunter, the money is for you. ā
System Prompt: The Birthday Fire of the mission is completed, and the reward is 10 gold.
10 gold coins, worth it!
It's not much, but it still has a little capital.
Light Blood ran back to the Miracle Ancient Tree and said to Deanna, "Sister Deanna, do you have any life leaves to sell here?" ā
Deanna nodded, took out an emerald leaf out of nowhere and waved, "Yes, but there are only 100 pieces per day, 10 silver coins each, and you know some of its limitations?" ā
"Yes, just right!" Light Blood immediately handed Deanna the 10 gold coins he had just earned, and bought all 100 Life Tree Leaves.
Saying goodbye to Deanna, Lightblood quietly entered the dark alley again and found Rog.
"I have a batch of Living Tree Leaves in my hands." Lightblood's voice is low, but the words are simple.
When Rogge heard this, his eyes lit up, and his answer was even simpler, "One piece of gold coins!" ā
Light Blood nodded, knowing that it was the price, and then emphasized: "I believe you also know that this is contraband, and we Night Elves are forbidden to sell it to you humans, so if something happens, I will be sure that you robbed me." ā
"I see." Rogge smiled and pointed to the side, "In order not to leave a transaction record, there are two wooden boxes here, let's put things in each of them, and then exchange them to take them, what?" ā
"Yes," Light Blood nodded in approval of this method, although Rogge is a black businessman, he is well-known in the second world, and he is still quite credible.
I have to say that the leaves of the Tree of Life are the leaves shed by the Tree of Life of the Night Elf Clan, and it is a good potion material, which is nothing at all in the Night Elf Clan.
But in the Terrans, the nobles are accustomed to enjoying a cup of afternoon tea with the leaves of life, and even like to soak their feet in the leaves of the tree of life in the evening. When I heard the news. The Night Elves were furious, believing that this was a blasphemy against the God of Life, and directly listed the Tree of Life as a forbidden item and forbade it to be sold to outsiders.
Therefore, the price of the leaf of life has risen, but the demand of the human aristocracy for it has not decreased but increased, and it is very suitable to describe it as a rush to describe it as a life of the nobility.
Therefore, countless merchants have taken risks to come to the Night Elf Clan, just to find an opportunity to buy and sell the leaves of the Tree of Life, and only if they succeed in bringing back the Human Alliance, they can get rich overnight.
If it weren't for the fact that the communication with the Terran Alliance had not yet been opened to players, Light Blood would really want to personally bring the Tree of Life to the Human Alliance, and as for soaking his feet or something, he would have to worry about the birds.
However, there are very few things that can make you rich, and players will have to search for a long time to find them. Like the Leaf of Life, normally speaking, Light Blood will only reveal the news to him secretly after long-term contact with Rogge and his reputation is increased to 80.
Now Light Blood directly skips the step of prestige and simply trades the Leaf of Life, of course, this is dangerous, so Light Blood first explains that it is all on your head if something happens.
Easily got 100 gold, but this is still far from the goal of Light Blood. After that, there will be no more opportunities for such tenfold profits, and you can only buy and sell normally.
Lightblood immediately purchased 80 gold of Thunder Ale from Rogna, which was something from the Orc Thunder Bluff and was popular among both the Night Elves and the Terran Alliance.
Thunder ale is a relatively cheap thing, the amount of 80 gold coins is very large, and it is only a professional black merchant like Rogge, this time it is a relatively normal running businessman, and it is expected to make about twice the profit, but it will take some time.
Light Blood rented a convoy for 5 gold to fetch the goods (too big for a backpack to fit), then returned to the Hunter's Hall and hired a team of mercenaries for 10 gold to set off north, targeting the Moonlit Glade of Eternal Night Harbor in the northern part of the Night Elves.
