155 Waukin's Small Treasury [Strange Things]
When Reverend Grant calmly threw a thick copy of "The Financial System of the Kingdoms" into Sycamore's hand, and took 25 gold coins from the small money bag containing 30 gold coins and 300 silver coins that Sycamore placed on the crystal coffee table, symbolizing the low price of the surname, wasn't it?
His original intention was to sell a copy to each of the apprentices in front of him, but it seemed that only the rich apprentice in front of him had this ability.
When Sycamore's eyes gradually cleared, Pastor Grant knocked out Sycamore again before he became angry: "By the way, I almost forgot that as Lady Waukin's 'honorary believer', the temple still has a small gift for you. As he spoke, he shoved a small golden leather fanny pack into Sycamore's hand.
It took Sycamore a long time to react, and after glancing at the surname of the small waist bag, Sycamore could only think that he had spent 25 gold coins to buy this thing, and the book "The Financial System of the Kingdoms" was a bonus:
Waugold's Small Vault [Strange Things]: Special Currency [0/1]; Gold [0/3]; Silver [0/5]; Copper Coin [0/10]; Description: This delicate and ornate wallet is a gift from the goddess of trade and wealth, Wokin, to her followers, so that her wealthy believers can carry all kinds of change with them, and do not have to worry about filling it up, although it is only a [low-level curiosity], but it can hold any number of 1 special currency, 3 gold coins, 5 silver coins and 10 copper coins, no matter what kind of coin, when it is loaded into the wallet, it will be automatically sorted to where it should appear, and as if it is loaded into the mind of the holder, it will display accurate numbers.
If one wishes to add space to more types of currency than the one available, the holder will need to pay more reverence to Lady Waukin, and under the will of the Goddess, no one will be able to take a single copper coin from this purse unless the holder wishes.
The profit of the 33 gold coins that had just arrived, 25 pieces were lost at once, and no one's mood was probably any better, and Sycamore can now be sure that the bank is responsible for selling loans even more than the bank teller who is forced to do so, because Pastor Grant does not give up on half a cigarette and the idyllic flower and without them, and sells "only charges a loan with a low interest rate for the 'symbolic surname'", and after the failure, Pastor Grant's expression was so disappointed, and Sycamore guessed that he had business pressure.
Stuffing all his coins into the small vault, Sycamore clicked on the various choices in the small vault:
Special Currency [1/1]: Ancient Gold Coin [1/3]: Standard Gold Coins; Silver Coins[1/5]: Standard Silver Coins; Copper Coin [1/10]: Standard Copper Coins; Very good, the classification is very clear, the most amazing thing is that the wood has a load, and Sycamore feels a little better, although this thing was originally the reward he received with the gold emblem after trading 100 gold coins in the Worgold Temple.
Thinking of the Worgold Divine Emblem, Wutong hurriedly took it out and took a look:
Gold Emblem [Relic]: [Estimate] +3, [Negotiation] +2, [Bluff] +1. Title: [Honorable Gold Emblem Believer]: Waiver of the 20% fee when trading at the Waugold Temple.
Description: Wearing this emblem, in addition to trading in all cities with the Temple of Worgin, you can get a 20% tax exemption, you have a 30% chance of estimating the exact price of an unknown item, and have the good ability to convince the merchant to give you a 20% discount, and if you want, you can use some white little lies to get the other party to give you an extra 10% discount.
"Good stuff!"
Wutong "Gollum" swallowed his saliva, he probably guessed that if it was only [Silver Divine Emblem], the estimated family name would only: [Estimate] +2, [Negotiation] +1, and [Brass Divine Emblem], the estimated surname would only: [Estimate] +1, that is, if he could upgrade the [Golden Divine Emblem] at that time, there might be a fourth surname, and all existing castes would be +1!
However, the wish is good, but it is not so easy to obtain a higher-level Worgold Emblem, because except for such a chance to obtain the Worgold Emblem in the mission out of the village, when the Mid-Workin Temple opens the "Honorary Believer" related tasks, it may take a lot of effort to obtain a lowest-level Worgold Emblem.
Thinking about the wealth that needs to be donated to the temple of Waukin, Sycamore feels weak enough, don't underestimate the greed of the priests of Waukin, how do you think these golden temples were built?
Since he spent 25 gold coins to buy a copy of "The Financial System of the Kingdoms", Wutong also took a look at it by the way:
The Financial System of the Kingdoms: Reading Progress [0%], Identification +0. Other castes: None [Required to be read and studied]
Description: Books that describe the various monetary systems and financial instruments of various countries, and if you read and study them carefully, you will gain [knowledge] growth, and gain extensive insight and experience. By consulting this book, you can get a monetary appraisal bonus.
Wutong was embarrassed, and he still had to read it before his surname appeared He suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and remembered the large number of books he had deposited with Madame Sir Lady, if it was said that they all needed to be read and studied like this
Quickly driving this terrible thought out of his mind, Sycamore decided to get out of here quickly, and was accidentally fooled by Priest Grant for a long time, so that he forgot that he still had to join them with the Blood-Slayer Lion and the Idyllic Landscape.
Quickly stuffing "The Financial System of the Kingdoms" into the homeless man's backpack, Wutong drank the cocoa in front of him, stood up and said to the surprised Pastor Grant and Mr. Ben: "Well, I will study this esoteric book well, but now we still have some things to deal with, so let's take our leave, and next time I visit, goodbye!" ”
Saying that, Wutong didn't wait for Pastor Grant to speak, he pulled the little Lori who was almost asleep on him and ran away, and the same sleepy half of the cigarette and the idyllic wind opened his eyes blankly, and cold sweat squeaked out~, because Wutong ran away, Pastor Grant was looking at the two of them "with a tiger's eye", even nothing, and he didn't know when he disappeared with Wutong.
"Uh, goodbye!!"
"Hud-da~~" The two of them almost ran out of a smoke and disappeared in front of Pastor Grant and Mr. Ben, who looked at each other, and after Mr. Ben stood up quietly, and said politely: "Then, I also take my leave"
Before he could finish speaking, his figure had disappeared outside the temple door, and Pastor Grant sat there alone, muttering with a lost face: "Huh? Why are they all gone? Don't sit for a while? I just talked about the copper coin system."
Looking at the time, because of the late entry into the city, coupled with a delay in the Workin Temple, it is close to dusk, Ogaros Island is located at the bottom of the "Fog Bay", so at dusk, you can look from the bottom of the harbor to enjoy the strange hazy golden mist of the endless sea, and it just so happens that the Workin Temple is located in the best position to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
After handing over the mission to the garrison of Ogarus City, the blood-killing lion and others who came to converge, Sycamore once again received a property of more than 22 gold coins, but this number is not so important to the current Sycamore.
As soon as he put the two gold coins into the small vault, Wutong suddenly remembered the large amount of goods and equipment they had scavenged on the road, and hurriedly returned to the sea cliff through the teleportation point set up on the huge gold emblem in front of the Wujin Temple, and transferred all the items that were pre-stored there.
Fortunately, in order not to go empty on the return journey to-morrow, the carriage they had rented was going to bring back some goods of the special products of the city of Ogarus, but they did not return them, and the hundred or so people were busy for a while, and this batch of goods was handed over, and another 3 or 40 gold coins were credited.
While busy, Wutong suddenly found that the players of the "Bloodkill" guild of the Blood Lion seemed to be a little depressed, and understood that they were because of the previous incident, but this matter, with the role of Mr. Mu he played, it was not easy to interfere with anything, so he could only helplessly glance at this player with a rather bold surname, and shook his head to say that he couldn't help.
Although there are a lot of equipment seized along the way, but it is too messy, and most of them are very inferior quality equipment, long swords, round shields, short bows and other equipment are not much, in order to reward the blood-killing lion escort the convoy to Ogalus City along the way, Wutong is not stingy, directly according to the configuration of half a cigarette and the pastoral brothers to equip him with a set, and to other players are also issued 1~2 silver coins rewards.
The replaced equipment, Wutong thought about it, and decided to sell it on the spot in Ogarus City, firstly, the number of players in Ogarus City has reached the highest, and secondly, the players who can arrive in Ogalus City have basically completed the escort task, and there must be some coins on hand, which is a good time to loot.
In addition, Wutong also plans to go to the night market in the central square of Ogalus City to see if there is anything worth buying, he has now accumulated a huge amount of nearly 400 gold coins in hand, it is not a wise thing to save it.
As for saving money to pay off debts and buying items on the list, Wutong felt that it was more cost-effective to drag the loan to pay the interest and keep the money to strengthen and arm himself, and secondly, he felt that in the current situation, he was not in a hurry to buy the terrible items on the list, so wouldn't it be better to use money to make money?
At the beginning of the day, a large number of torches and all kinds of oil lamps, lanterns and windproof lanterns were lit on the streets and shops in the city of Ogarus, and the whole city was plunged into a magical atmosphere like a sea of stars.
A large number of people are flowing on every street in the city, players are busy looking for a place to work, and some are busy searching for tasks that can be done, which is related to their "living expenses" tomorrow, and "rich people" like Wutong naturally don't need to sell their labor for such a small amount of money, and at present, Ogalus City is not officially open to players, and some of the tasks recorded in the strategy are not available to him at this time.
In addition, he was not in Shell Village, and he did not prepare a large amount of prey in advance, so he couldn't skin and make money this night, not that he couldn't return to Shell Village through the teleportation circle, but for the sake of tomorrow's plan, Wutong didn't plan to do this.
The night market is crowded, this night, Ogalus City almost gathered nearly 1/3 of the player population of the entire Trial Island, it seems to be very lively, the huge central square, all are filled with players who set up stalls, in the city is not able to set up stalls casually, the tax officer will come to charge you a booth fee of 1 copper coin per stall, and will also charge 1/10 of the transaction tax, do not pay? Didn't that enforcer over there be a tin can?
Sycamore let them rent a stall and put up a lot of their junk equipment, which is the most sought-after at this stage compared to the various bizarre materials and items collected by other players, and will probably be in demand until players have the financial resources to buy [ordinary] quality goods from the store.
Leaving the pastoral brothers behind and setting up their stalls, the Bloodkiller Lion was responsible for leading more than 20 members of the "Bloodkill" Guild under his command to press the formation, and Wutong and Little Lori, Wu, and Half Cigarette went to the night market to see what they could buy.
A pinch of bone meal, crumbling crystal, a small lump of gum, 1/4 ounce of gold dust, alchemy-failed lead, burnt glass lump, clump of congealed lime, coarse toner, ivory powder, dried pea powder, phospho powder, very fine sand, lime, clay, frozen stone, marble, peridot, all kinds of ores
There are also small copper bells, very fine silver wires, broken rhubarb leaves, pouches of pouches of vipers, powdered sheep's feet, tail of geckos, tongues of toads, various special pieces of wood, intact acorns, pine towers, and acorns
"What are you selling?" After walking around the square, where thousands of people set up stalls, half a cigarette couldn't help but complain.
Although it is only the beginning of the game, the types of goods sold by players are really not small, and there are thousands of them! And most of these bizarre things are in the materials, some of them are picked up, collected, and excavated by players when they go out to level up, some are additional rewards for doing tasks, and some are even processed scrap products Wutong just saw a player selling a long and complete fish bone, he didn't go to the kitchen waste pile in that restaurant to turn it out, right?
What's even more outrageous is that there is a player who is like a baby holding a large bag of smelly black dirt to sell around, and Sycamore was very curious to ask him what he was selling, but he was very proud to say that it was tomb soil, and Sycamore went crazy on the spot.
Of course, there are also those who sell equipment, but there are not many, either they sell it very expensively, or they are shouting that they only exchange it and don't sell it, and now players get most of the equipment for their own use, anyway, they don't have a job for the time being, and there is no limit to what to use.
Don't look at these messy things, Wutong really knows some of them, because when he was purchasing spell material packs, he saw similar materials being sold, so these seemingly useless bits and pieces of brains are really not useless garbage, some of them can be used as medicinal materials, some can be used as spell casting materials, and some are raw materials needed by some [craft] and [professional].
Theoretically, these things can actually be sold to NPCs, but the various materials owned by players are too scattered and too small, and the NPC store will buy at least a group of 20, and players may have to accumulate 10 groups before they can be sold in the NPC store.
However, it is not easy to accumulate 10 sets of 200, because there are so many types of materials in Endless that players will basically scavenge and take back to the village as long as they are useful (the description reads: "Can be sold to such and such a store after accumulation].
In this way, the things that players collect are extremely fragmentary, and there may be dozens of items sold in a player's stall, one or two hundred, but each of them may only have one or two, which creates a problem, they can't sell these scattered things to NPCs!
Now, there aren't many players who can afford an adventure backpack for 2 gold coins, and the two-compartment pockets that come with the apprentice suit alone can't hold so many things, so the storage equipment that most players currently use is sold in grocery stores:
Small sack: 10 pounds in capacity, 5/5 in durability, 1/4 in weight, and 1 copper in price.
Medium sack: 50 pounds in capacity, 5/5 in durability, 1/2 pound in weight, and 3 copper coins in price.
Hemp Bag: 100 lb capacity, 5/5 durability, 1 lb weight, price 6 copper coins.
This has caused players on the street to be the same as the elders of the beggar gang, with a string of small sacks hanging from their waists, two middle sacks on their backs, and a hemp bag on their shoulders.
The most important thing is that these odd and broken brains, in addition to collecting them in groups and selling them to NPC stores, no players buy them at all, because these things either require [craft] skills, or they need [alchemy], [alchemy], [potions] and other [specialties], as well as those spell materials, how many spellcasters can use them now?
Sell and can't sell out, keep and feel chicken, although you can store a sack and send it to the hotel counter to store, but that is to charge a custodian fee, according to the volume, charge 1 copper coin per day to a few copper coins ranging from storage fees, that full of sacks of miscellaneous, can you sell 1 copper coin or two to say, when to save enough to save a group?
That's the dilemma that players are experiencing right now.
After Wutong turned around, he also found a very interesting phenomenon, the wisdom of the people is powerful, he saw that some players shouted loudly for such and such materials for such and such materials, it seems that they are planning to accumulate groups of people to sell through barter, but the problem is that even if the vast majority of players change so one or two, he also can't get together a group, why do you spend that spirit?
You said to buy it? Very good, now the players are not so poor in their hands, basically they all look at a few, a dozen silver coins, but the price of those materials is low to a limit, how do you buy it?
For example, bone meal/pound/1 copper coin, toad's tongue/1 group/1 copper coin, pine tower/5 group/1 copper coin, players have about a handful or a few of everything on the stall, how do you say you give money?
The smallest denomination currency that players can get at hand is the standard copper coin, you take two pine cones, and then tell people very heroically: don't look for it! Or a big slap in the face: looking for money!?
Pack up the stalls and make up a few copper coins? Well, unless you have a large team, you'll have to pay someone to carry the sack for you, and the most important thing is that if you do that, you're going to get more and more mixed with thousands of odds and ends! You can't afford to hurt it!
Therefore, Wutong they walked around a whole circle, and found that there were many players hanging out, but those who paid for things were rarely seen, unless they were doing some kind of task, and they just needed some of the materials, just Wutong saw a player hurriedly running into the square, and did not look for what he wanted, but jumped on the steps of the fountain pool in the center of the square, and roared: "Collect four lizard claws, a toad tongue, an ounce of crushed quartz powder, and some snort!" ”
Then there was a roar around him, a group of players grabbed the things on their stall and rushed over, you and I got together one by one, and then the player who bought it threw down one or two copper coins, grabbed the material and left, and the player who sold the material quarreled again to divide the spoils, and it was really inseparable, so he took the material for a change, and sat back in front of his stall to wait, saying that it was a stall, in fact, it was a hemp bag containing things, and the things were poured out and spread on the ground, Then they put the things they want to sell on top of the sacks and sell them, not so much that they are selling, but that they think the environment is fun, and they just have fun here and enjoy the atmosphere, and they can't go out of the city at night anyway.
Wutong They went shopping for a long time, but they didn't buy anything, but they couldn't laugh, this meeting was so loving.
As they walked and walked around the entire circle, they returned to the place where they had set up their own stall to sell junk equipment, when Sycamore suddenly stopped and crouched down in front of a player's stall.
The player boss didn't care about his stall at all, but chatted with a female player surnamed next to the stall, Wutong squatted in front of his stall for a long time, he didn't find it, and Wutong was very helpless to feed twice before he caught his attention, is he setting up a stall or is he here to pick up girls? And the shy female player in the stall next door looks young and, which is too hungry to eat.
The reason why Wutong squatted down was because there was a small pile of messy, rusty metal pieces on this buddy's burlap bag, and the shape Wutong didn't see that two were exactly the same, triangular, octagonal, round, square, thick, thin, and round with a hole in the middle
"What is this? How to sell? ”
Sycamore curiously picked up a piece of metal and looked at it, these pieces of metal looked a bit like the ancient coins he had collected earlier when he and the Blood Lion were fighting the kobolds together, and he still had 491 pieces in his waist [the small vault of gold].
It's just that these things don't even have a description, and there's no way to tell what kind of ancient coins they are, and this kind of ancient coins can't be used as copper coins, and NPCs don't accept them.
"I know what it is, it exploded when our team beat the kobolds. Do you want to buy? ”
The player boss didn't have any awareness of being a businessman, but looked at Sycamore in amazement, and when Sycamore looked up, the scary lie mask exposed under the hidden cloak scared the buddy.
Because of the arrival of a large number of players, the city of Ogalus is rarely lively, so there are also many NPCs in the night market to set up stalls or visit the night market, which is also the reason why players know that it is difficult to sell in the hands of players, and would rather spend time sitting there, after all, there are many NPCs who are interested in these things, in case they meet an NPC big money and wave their hands and say, "It's all over!" "What?
Although there are a lot of NPCs, it's just that the shape is not as weird as Wutong, and his body is really bluffing, and basically the players who saw it didn't regard him as an NPC.
"Uh, sir, are you interested in these uh, mysterious pieces of metal?"
The player boss also regarded the sycamore as an NPC, and immediately became enthusiastic, he set up a stall for fun, and he didn't plan to sell anything at all, but he didn't expect it to arouse the interest of NPCs, could it be that these broken copper and iron are really good things?
Sycamore is just interested, after all, he just listened to Pastor Grant explain a bunch of monetary systems, which made him curious about the various currencies in "Endless", and the collector is interested in anything that can be collected, from soda bottle caps to toy models, he has collected them, but he does not collect them for the purpose of collecting value, but simply enjoying the joy of the collection process.
"A little interested. How are you going to sell it? "Sycamore rummaged through that small pile of about a dozen pieces of metal.
"You look at it, uh, no! Sir, this is a mysterious item, with a high collection value, how about you look at 1 gold coin? The player boss tentatively opened his mouth to the lion.
Wutong raised his head, looked at him with a strange face, got up and turned his head to leave, he almost didn't reply: "Why don't you grab it?" ”
"Huh? Don't go! Hey, hey! The price is all over the sky and the money is repaid! 1 credit? No, no! One copper coin, what do you think? The player boss was in a hurry and stood up from the stall, intending to hold the sycamore.
"These, 44, all 1 copper coins!" Wutong stopped, took out a copper coin and threw it at his stall, pointing to the small pile of ancient coins.
"Why don't you go and grab it?! It's an antique! "Then the player is angry after the flute, what about such a big pile, even if you sell scrap iron, there is more than 1 copper coin, right?
Wutong sneered: "Antique? He pulled out a huge parchment book from his back, startling the player, and hurriedly touched the weapon, he thought that he was angry with the sycamore, and took out some strange weapon to pk him.
Opening the first side of "The Financial System of the Kingdoms", Wutong put the thick parchment pestle in front of the player, pointed to the graphic of the first coin on it, and said, "Antique? These things are just a small country called 'Sambia' in the westernmost part of the continent across the misty sea, minting the smallest denomination currency, the main material is iron, the value of 1 is only 1/100 of the copper coin, because the iron material used is too inferior, it is very easy to rust and decay, so this kind of iron coin is also called [rust coin], [rust slot], if it were not for the study of the monetary system of the countries, do you think I would spend more than double the money to exchange for only half a copper horn worth broken copper and rotten iron? You reminded me that it's stupid to do that, so"
"Deal!"
The player boss quickly shoved the unrecognizable piece of metal into Wutong's hand, and stuffed the copper coin into his pocket.
A copper coin is also money! Wutong's inexhaustible quotations made the player feel dizzy, and looking at the figure drawn on the big parchment book that seemed to be very mysterious, it seemed to be his pile of broken copper and iron.
"Uh" Sycamore also fell, so quickly agreed to sell? How did his tongue become so smooth just now? Usually he is not so sharp-toothed.
After convincing the other party to sell him the thing so quickly, Wutong felt no sense of accomplishment, and said unhappily: "No, I don't plan to buy it, please return the copper coins to me!" He only bought these rusty coins on a temporary basis, after all, he still had more than 400 in his small coffering.
"The goods have been sold and will not be returned!" The player boss was very resolute in clutching his pockets, looking at some of the rags on his stall a little weakly, and hesitated: "Why don't you pick a few more?" ”
Wutong was speechless, and glanced at his stall a few times, it was only some leaves, stones, iron pieces that didn't seem to know what they were, and there was actually a broken arrow, Wutong was very curious about where he got these rags, it wasn't for the sake of setting up a stall to pick up girls, just scratching and pulling on the ground in the wild, right?
Just as he was about to open his mouth to express his helpless agreement, Wutong suddenly found that in his pile of rags, there was a gray-white thumb big "stone", which looked a little like the soul crystal he had obtained, and took a closer look, the shape of this thing was very similar, but the color and material were completely different, although the soul crystal did not have a specific shape, but it was basically a crystalline polyhedron, and this small stone was also, but the color was gray-white, a little rough to the touch, and there were some milky white catkins in the gray-white material.
"Then add this!" Wutong put away the strange stone, anyway, it was a matter of 1 copper coin, and he didn't plan to really compare it with the other party.
"Don't buy anything else?" The player boss was very enthusiastic, but Wutong couldn't help but despise him: "Do you have anything else to sell?" The player boss laughed dryly.
Waiting for Wutong and the others to walk away, he took out the copper coin he earned from his pocket, and was proud: "I didn't expect that I could really sell it for money by picking something and setting up a stall?" It's really interesting, you can really sell anything in "Endless", nothing is strange, not bad, it's good, but the booth fee is earned back"
He suddenly froze, and his face changed greatly: "Huh? That's not right! Nima's pile of pieces of iron weighs almost a pound, and I can sell them for 1 silver if I take them to the smithy and sell them, right? ”
(To be continued)
