Chapter 38: Beginning to Gain Reputation

The sudden appearance of five bronze swords caused an uproar among players, didn't it say that there was a limited auction of ten? The system wants to make money, and it's crazy! For a while, the official account was "The old lady drinks porridge" and "How is your mother?" ", "I bought a bag last year", "The official is cool for a while, XXXXX" and a series of greetings were drowned.

Of course, there are also some players who didn't grab the Wind and Snow Sword just now and are starting to get excited, and the extra five are the extra opportunities!

Just when the crowd was angry, the official directly pinned an announcement: the official auction has ended, this is the item that the player himself put out, and the system evaluates it and puts it at the top. The player took a closer look and found that it was really a player who hung it out, and the time limit for the auction was the standard two hours.

Tang Yunfeng also wanted to see how this competitor's things were, and clicked on the picture of the item, which contained the introduction and all-round display of the long sword.

Ouyezi bronze sword, the whole sword is 1 meter long, the sword body is 80 centimeters long, and the total weight is four catties and five taels. The whole adopts the style of straight sword and wide edge, thick ridge and thin blade, bamboo hilt, and the sword spine is engraved with two ancient characters of Ouye, which makes the whole sword more ancient.

The starting price is 100 gold coins, and it seems that the seller of the bronze sword has just finished watching the auction, and this wave of popularity is just right.

When Ou Jinyuan saw the system announcement in the afternoon, he was also shocked and concluded that the seller behind this auction was the player who took the lead in himself. It is not known if the auction held by the system is a reward for him, or if he triggered some mission.

After looking at the shape of the Wind and Snow Sword released by the system announcement, Ou Jinyuan admitted that the other party was an expert, but he didn't agree with the shape of the Wind and Snow Sword or anything, it seemed that it was purely put together to cater to the aesthetics of modern people, and some of the essence of the ancient forging method was not used in it at all.

At the beginning, he was also going to hang out his Ouyezi bronze sword before the auction to stir up the auction, or to hang out his bronze sword at the same time in the auction hall to compete with the other party.

After thinking about it, it didn't seem to be any good for him to stir up the official auction house, so he adjusted his strategy and decisively came over to rub off on the heat, selling his bronze sword at a good price, and at the same time promoting it by the way.

In addition to Tang Yunfeng's Fengxue Pavilion territory, the conscience shops in other camps are still the standard configuration of one house and one person, so the authority and intelligence of the store manager are obviously not as good as the money shopkeeper of the Fengxue Pavilion.

Five Ou Yezi bronze swords were auctioned at a higher price than the Fengxue long sword, with an average of 270 gold coins each, Ou Yezi was very excited, and Tang Yunfeng was also very happy, because he cashed out more than 500 gold coins and got more than 100,000 yuan.

Seeing that the business of the bronze sword was so hot, Tang Yunfeng and Ou Jinyuan were full of energy. The difference is that Tang Yunfeng can only play his life alone, while Ou Jinyuan can mobilize people from the two camps to help him mine and mobilize his teammates to alchemy.

There are still two hours of game time today, Tang Yunfeng is willing to waste it, and two hours can at least refine more than ten sword embryos. As soon as he landed in the game, the money shopkeeper greeted him happily and asked about the number of the next auction of the Wind and Snow Long Sword.

After calculating his online time, Tang Yunfeng gave a promise of 20, and the money shopkeeper was obviously very satisfied with this number, and said a sycophant thing like "Lord Lord is wise and martial, take care of your body". Tang Yunfeng couldn't give birth to a trace of the warmth of being cared for in his heart, because he only saw a huge cash cow in the eyes of the money shopkeeper.

After sending away the fat man, Tang Yunfeng found that there was an extra trading system on the side of the attribute button. As expected, the officially tested trading system sank into the game.

Back in the backyard of the Wind and Snow Inn, Tang Yunfeng clicked on the trading system and found that the trading system in the game was completely different from the trading system on the official website. The trading system of the official website is more like an information release hall, with no fees, no time limit, and at most it is directly flooded by the flow of information. The trading system in the game is obviously much more black-hearted, and the release of transaction information is not only charged, but the price is not cheap, a piece of information is a silver coin a day, and it will be removed directly when the time comes. In addition, the items sold need to be reviewed and cannot be duplicated with the items sold in the system store. Moreover, for each successful transaction, the system also charges a 3% management fee.

Tang Yunfeng suspected that the developer of "The Vast Continent" was a profiteer in his previous life, and he simply did not miss any opportunity to make money from players.

The auction hall in the game trading system has also been opened, and it is estimated that tomorrow's auction will be held in the game. The system also opens a peer-to-peer trading system, after knowing the name of the other party, you can directly initiate a transaction application, and the other party can trade after agreeing. Because the price of the transaction is uncertain, the system charges a fixed amount of management tax for this kind of peer-to-peer transaction, and a peer-to-peer transaction charges 1 gold coin. Obviously, the system doesn't want players to trade peer-to-peer and avoid becoming a free logistics themselves.

No matter how much he scolded the system's black heart, Tang Yunfeng still honestly paid the toll of 3 gold coins, and sent the long sword and dagger to Xiaoao Jianghu (Ren Xiafei), Iron Blood Battle Blade (Han Fengxiang), and Shadow of the Rising Sun (Li Xuhui).

After getting these done, Tang Yunfeng went to the bronze vein and continued his metallurgical and mineral career. Monotonous and boring work, driven by interests, will also make people full of energy, this is the terrible thing about capital, it devours the most fundamental human nature.

In addition to Tang Yunfeng and Ou Jinyuan, who were working hard to forge the bronze long sword, other forces were also trying to find the bronze vein and win over players who practiced alchemy and forging. The threshold for this thing is not high, as long as the bronze vein is found, alchemy and forging are in time, it is nothing more than a matter of cost, success rate and quality.

At two o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, the system issued an auction announcement again, and the items auctioned were still bronze long swords, but this time the number was greatly improved compared to before, with a total of 50, including 20 wind and snow long swords and 30 Ou Yezi bronze swords. Ou Jinyuan's wave of popularity yesterday successfully entered the official field of vision, and he received an invitation from the system the next day.

Tang Yunfeng's luck was not very good, and he encountered a lot of stone armor monkeys making trouble today, wasting a lot of time. Only twenty-two swords were forged, but they gained another Kaihua: Stone Skin Skill Scroll (3), and a few obsidian.

Just when everyone was quietly waiting for the drama of the battle of local tyrants in the auction hall to be staged, a post set off a storm on the official forum. The name of the post is "Wind and Snow Long Sword Defeats Ou Yezi", which was released by a well-known local tyrant player "Dahan Xiongfeng".

It turned out that when Dahan Xiongfeng led his team to explore the ore vein, he ran into another team in the camp next door. The leader of the team is also a local tyrant player, holding Ou Yezi's long sword in his hand. At the whole stage, it was not yet time to grab resources, not to mention that they had not found any copper veins. Both teams were very happy to meet people from other camps, meaning that the area of the visual map was further expanded.

In the process of communication, the two sides talked about the auction of the bronze long sword yesterday. Another local tyrant player named "Wayward Hero" said that he did not photograph the Wind and Snow Sword because it was a blessing in disguise, because Ou Yezi's Sword was better than the Wind and Snow Sword in terms of length, shape, and weight. "Dahan Xiongfeng" took the Ou Yezi long sword in his hand and tried it, telling him that the Ou Yezi long sword was afraid that it was empty, and it was not as practical as the wind and snow long sword.

So, the two local tyrant players had their own opinions and decided to give it a try. So the two of them each held the Wind and Snow Sword and Ou Yezi Long Sword to fight each other, and the result was that the hardness and toughness of the Wind and Snow Sword were better than Ou Yezi. The two sides slashed at each other, and the wind and snow long sword only made a few gaps in the blade, while the blade of Ou Yezi's bronze sword was almost completely shattered.

Since "Vast Continent" does not support player videos and screenshots, they are unable to come up with evidence. But the reply of the "willful hero" recognized the things that the "big man heroes" said. After all, both of them are well-known local tyrant players in the game industry, and this credibility is still there.

Ou Jinyuan could only smile bitterly when he saw this post, and he didn't make any response. The gap between the Wind and Snow Sword and the Blade he could predict, and he guessed that the place was the player who had received the skill proficiency bonus. There is a big gap in the skill proficiency of the two sides, even if they make up for it with their own techniques, they are still inferior to each other under the correction of the system. Moreover, the other party is not a novice who simply relies on system skill correction, and he can be regarded as an expert in forging, and he will not lose his skill advantage because of some low-level mistakes.

When Tang Yunfeng saw this post, he was still a little embarrassed, as if he was suppressing Ou Yezi's bronze sword for tonight's auction.

The auction opens at 8 p.m. on time, and it is still held on the official website of "Vast Continent", because there is still a gold coin transaction that cannot be solved, and the in-game auction will have to wait until the time is ripe to hold an official auction.

The first group of auctions was still ten snow swords, this time the auction time limit was changed to 10 minutes, and the auction price was basically locked at about 300 gold coins. The second group is ten Ouyezi bronze swords, and the final transaction price is only about 180 gold coins, which is obviously influenced by the afternoon post. The auction price of the third group of ten Wind and Snow Swords dropped slightly, to almost 280 gold coins. The auction price of the fourth and fifth groups of Ouyezi bronze swords increased slightly, to 200 gold coins. After all, this is the best bronze weapon besides the Wind and Snow Sword. Seriously, this price is far beyond Tang Yunfeng's cognition, just a better weapon, so many people spend tens of thousands of yuan to buy it, it can only be said that poverty limits his imagination. In fact, the biggest reason for this is that all players are concentrated in one game, and it is still the only official game.

It's not that there are no players in the game who forge bronze weapons, but the appearance and shape are really incomparable to these two bronze swords. To put it bluntly, it is a piece of bronze, which is limited in strength than a wooden gun and bamboo sword. Forging can be learned by everyone, but what kind of thing can be forged depends on the technique and technique, and the system will not help to correct it.

Just like everyone has a driver's license, some drive with one hand, and some even have to ask a substitute driver to reverse. It's one thing to be able to drive with a license, it's another thing entirely to be able to drive.
