75 Business Opportunity in Marke

The scale of the offline martial arts tournament was rather small, and not many people joined it. The rewards were also not exactly great. But most importantly, the official website never did any sort of promotion. Hence, many of the players in the game did not know about this. Happy was very happy about this, since it allowed him to live his life freely. He had been very worried about a big number of people forming groups to search for him in Gusu City, wanting his signature. 

He arrived in the busiest street in Gusu City and found small stalls the players had set up themselves all over the place. They only needed one simple flag to name their stall, and they would put on display all sorts of fur, weapons, manuals, herbs, and other items while they waited for others to come along and examine the items on sale. 

The more time passed since the start of the game, the more players reached Gate Realm, and now, Black Wind Mountain was no longer a place solely for Happy. In fact, quite a number of people found even better training spots, and because of it, the market gradually grew. Now, Happy felt as if he could find everything in it. 

However, if the players only sold some normal items, they would not catch his eyes. 

Happy's trip to the market was to buy the Green Jade Shrouded in Heavenly Silks from the weapon shop. He had just received fifty thousand taels of silver crumbs as his reward, and before, he had accumulated ten thousand taels or so silver crumbs, so he had more than one hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs in total. It was enough for him to buy that high grade masterpiece. 

He slowed down while he walked down the street. Naturally, it was because he wanted to test his luck and see if he could see anything unexpected. 

As of right then, the players had not explored the game enough. They were still not clear on the prices of many items. They might sell some jade slit rings with martial arts recorded on them, items that triggered missions, and even items with amazing effects, for cheap. During the later stages of the game, those were treasures that were so rare that they could not be bought with money. If he could find one or two of them, Happy might get his hands on them for only around one hundred taels of silver crumbs. 

He looked around, but found nothing. 

When he approached the weapon shop, Happy noticed that there was a group of people surrounding the area not too far away from him. Occasionally, someone dressed in a short, tight-fitting, gray fur coat would squeeze out of the crowd. There would be complicated looks of pity and satisfaction mixed on people's faces when it happened. Happy raised an eyebrow, and great curiosity rose in him. With his sword in hand, he went to that group. 

"Eldest senior brother, you're here too?"

Happy's arrival caught a few people's attention. They called out to him, and when he turned around to look, he found that it was Whirlwind Young Li and his friends. They were among the crowd as well, and they were waving at him rapidly for him to come over to their side. 

"What's all this excitement about?"

With curiosity, Happy arrived in front of a stall through the path the people had cleared for him. It was a stall managed by three people. The three men stood across him with great arrogance while haggling with a few players. 

The trio's stall was not exactly small. The short gray fur coats they sold were made with exquisite craftsmanship. They were fitting to the body and showed their figures. Their defensive properties were quite great, and they were extremely eye-catching. 

Aside from clothes, they also sold gauntlets, leather boots, and short pants. Since the game had just been launched not too long ago, their shop front could be considered to contain a large variety, making them a very extraordinary store. It was no wonder then that they managed to attract so many players to buy their items. 

However, it was a pity that Happy lost his interest right after he saw the items on sale. 

They were just normal beginner level defensive gear. 

A Great Wolf Fur Coat increased defense by fifty points. 

It should have been crafted by some tailor's shop, and the entire set could only give some additional defence. It was useful for players to save up on some Jinchuang Ointment and get injured less when in battles, which made it great for normal players. 

However, very soon, the players would not be satisfied with just this. Their demands for armor would get higher. At that time, the prices for these items would go down. In fact, no one would buy them anymore. 

However, the players around the area were very excited. They went after the equipment that could increase their defenses like a swarm of bees to honey.

Quite a number of people asked the stall owner the price of the equipment. 

"All items are sold at a fixed price! A Great Wolf Fur Coat is sold for five thousand taels of silver crumbs, gauntlets and leather boots for two thousand taels of silver crumbs, and the pants for three thousand taels of silver crumbs."

The trio's statements were the same, and they were firm with the price offered!

Five thousand taels of silver crumbs was a great expenditure for a normal player. They would need to live a frugal life and save up a week's worth of money to get that amount. Quite a number of people's expressions changed; they felt that the price was simply too much. 

"This is daylight robbery!"

"We don't have a lot of stock. If you want to buy it, then buy it. Those who want it, you better do it quickly."

The three stall owners only cast a glance at the person who had spoken. Once they estimated that person's buying power, they looked away to talk with the other people. When they met the straightforward ones, they settled on the deal right away. 

When they saw more people grit their teeth and buy the Great Wolf Fur Coats, Whirlwind Young Li, Eastern Green Gate, and Azure Wolf, who had been watching quietly and calmly by the side, were slightly tempted, and they became anxious. 

They had quite a lot of money on them. Hence, they gritted their teeth and went up to buy the set. 

"Bro, give me one set—"

"Wait."

Happy looked up and stopped the group from buying the items. 

"If you really want them, don't buy. Come with me."

Whirlwind Young Li, Eastern Green Gate, and Azure Wolf were instantly stunned speechless. However, they had quite a lot of confidence in Happy's words, which was why they did not hesitate and turned around to walk away from the crowd. 

The three stall owners had nothing to say about this. They originally had their eyes on Whirlwind Young Li and Eastern Green Gate, because they had extraordinary presences, but now, their business had been ruined, and they could not help but be vexed. When they saw Happy's get up, however, they remembered that person's name, and they felt a chill go down their spines. They averted their gazes and looked elsewhere. 

The Blue-robed Noble Sword User was someone who made Dragon Tiger Sect admit defeat, and they went as far as to avoid him from then on. The three men just wanted to become rich through the Great Wolf Fur Coats and were not arrogant enough to want to provoke an existence like the Blue-Robed Noble Sword User. 

Happy left the crowd and entered the weapon shop. Without any hesitation, he bought the Green Jade Shrouded in Heavenly Silks, which cost one hundred thousand taels of silver crumbs. Then, he walked out of the city while the trio behind him gasped in astonishment. 

"Eldest senior brother…" Whirlwind Young Li only recovered from his shock after a while. He caught up to Happy in excitement and said, "This item is a high-grade masterpiece, and it's extremely expensive! You're actually willing to spend money to buy it?"

"You'll only be able to gain something if you're willing to let go of something else." Happy smiled faintly. 

"You'll end up switching gears often if you buy beginner level equipment, because they will be replaced by better gear very quickly. Soon, they will become worthless, but the value of high grade equipment will not drop for some time. It's worth buying this." 

Eastern Green Gate's eyes lit up when he heard this. He closed his fan and slapped it against his palm. 

"Are you saying that spending five thousand taels of silver crumbs for that Great Wolf Fur Coat is not worth the expenditure?"

Happy nodded. 

"Instead of spending your money on useless items, it'd be better to use it on more manuals and increasing your qi realm, or saving it to buy high-grade equipment."

"Oh."

The trio looked enlightened. 

"So, where are we going?"Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

Once they got out of the city, Azure Wolf looked around in puzzlement.

"You wanted the Great Wolf Fur Equipment Set, right?" Happy turned around and gave the trio a mysterious smile.

They looked at each other at a loss for a moment before their eyes lit up. 

"Didn't you just say that it's not worth buying that sort of beginner level equipment?"

"It's indeed not worth spending five thousand taels of silver crumbs for it, but there's still some use for that equipment." Happy pointed at the mountain that was situated far from the city with neither rashness or conceitedness. 

"The additional defensive effects from Great Wolf Fur Equipment Set are pretty good. It won't affect your speed, and it protects your vitals. Its effects are as good as those of Ink Armor. It'd be good for each of you have a set! But there's no need for you to buy it. 

"Its materials come from the fur of Great Wolves, which you can find in the depths of the forest in Cold Mountain Temple. As long as you can get their fur and ask the manager of a tailor's shop to custom make them for you, it'll be fine. You will only need to pay a price of five hundred taels of silver crumbs for the craftsmanship of the entire set."

The trio were stunned speechless. Looks of shock could be found on their faces. 

Five hundred taels of silver crumbs?

The stall owners who sold the Great Wolf Fur Coats just now asked for ten thousand taels of silver crumbs for the entire set.

Naturally, they did not know that Happy had only estimated the cost, because the cost for making a Level 2 Equipment was indeed very cheap. As long as they could provide the raw materials, the tailor in the tailor's shop would be able to make the entire set within a short period of time.
