Malaka, standing across the street from Sunnyfire Shop, suddenly felt as if his brain wasn’t working and thought that everything happening before his eyes was an illusion.
“What is going on? Didn’t they sell all their valuable items already? Weren’t they about closing down? Why is this happening?”
“Isn’t that Sora, the intermediate Forging Master? Last time I visited him, I didn’t even see him, and an apprentice just dismissed me. Why is he now acting like a clown in front of Vera, nodding and bowing, humbling himself?”
“Oh my god! A senior Forging Master actually applied for a job at a Level 2 shop?! This world has gone mad!”
Malaka felt chaos in his brain, dizzy and experiencing headaches. He couldn’t help but step back, gasping for air.
“Go, go find out what’s happening! Why, why…” Malaka pointed to the shop across the street with a trembling finger and yelled in a low voice;
“Yes, yes, boss. I’ll go find out right now.” One of the clerks looked at Malaka trembling in fear and quickly rushed out of the shop.
In reality, the events at Sunnyfire Shop were quite simple. An intermediate Forging Master happened to be passing by and sensed the presence of the Third-tier Demon Flame;
After paying a fee, using one of the forging rooms to successfully create an excellent weapon of terrific attributes, the news of Sunnyfire Shop possessing Magic Flame began to spread among the Forging Masters in the City of Hymns.
In just over an hour, even senior Forging Masters had heard the news. Some younger senior Forging Masters came directly, and those older and more prestigious senior Forging Masters sent their apprentices to investigate;
Vera, who had been sighing with sorrow in the shop, suddenly felt as if her head had been hit by a round pie when she saw one intermediate Forging Master after another surrounding her and speaking respectfully.
But soon, she learned from these Forging Masters about the Magic Flame and couldn’t help but feel a little helpless towards Song Jian. If he had told her earlier, she wouldn’t have worried for so long.
Since she knew what was going on, Vera naturally raised her standards for recruiting Forging Masters. If there weren’t so few senior Forging Masters in the entire City of Hymns, she would have wanted to recruit all of them,
In a short while, Vera signed contracts with three senior Forging Masters and two senior alchemists. What surprised her the most was that an expert Engineer signed a product-sharing contract with her. As long as the products manufactured at Sunnyfire Shop were sold, the shop would receive a 30% share of the profits.
This was unimaginable for a Level 2 shop. Not to mention the value of the items crafted by an expert Engineer, just the news of attracting an expert in a Life Profession would make Sunnyfire Shop famous throughout the City of Hymns.
“One million Doomsday Coins turnover, haha! It’s too easy!” Vera’s eyes were almost squeezed into a slit from laughing.
When Malaka heard the news, he returned to his office, destroyed everything he could grab, vented all his anger, and still resentfully reported the news to the higher-ups of the Sunnyfire Commerce.
After a long silence, the higher-ups of Sunnyfire Commerce finally gave an order: to abandon this battle and investigate the information about Magic Flame as much as possible.
Malaka’s face turned pale after ending the communication. His dream of becoming a middle manager in the Commerce was shattered. He didn’t even know how he lost the sure-win opportunity. At this moment, Malaka wished he could jump down from the second floor;
“Go, find out everything about Magic Flame!” Malaka gritted his teeth and ordered.
With all the prices adjusted back to their original levels, Sunnyfire Shop ceased its war and became low-key again. This made Sunnyfire Shop across the street even busier.
Usually, to obtain an item crafted by a senior Forging Master, one would need to pre-order it days or even weeks in advance, and the price would be expensive. But now, they were able to buy equipment crafted by senior Forging Masters and potions refined by senior alchemists at an ordinary Level 2 shop. This made everyone who entered the shop dumbfounded, thinking they had encountered a mysterious store.
As more and more people flocked to Sunnyfire Shop, the turnover soared: two hundred thousand, three hundred thousand, four hundred thousand…
Within just one day, the sales volume of Sunnyfire Shop reached 430.000!
This made Vera eager to report the good news to Annie, the shopkeeper.
At this moment, Song Jian was on his way to Sunnyfire Shop, unaware of the shocking event that had taken place in Doomsday City.
Seven or eight small fighting leagues suddenly united to form a fighting league called “Waste Capital.” On the first day of its formation, they cleared the dungeon “The Bloody Underground Arena” at the difficult level, appearing on Doomsday City’s television, and making the entire city aware of the existence of a fighting league called “Waste Capital”;
However, Song Jian was in the City of Hymns at the time and did not receive the system notification.
When the day passed quickly, Song Jian began producing Slow Medicine the next day. The silver-grade medicine production table could produce at least excellent-quality Slow Medicine and sometimes even one or two mutantquality Slow Medicine;
Excellent quality Slow Medicine increased the slow effect to 30%, while mutant quality Slow Medicine not only reduced movement speed but also decreased attack speed by 10%, surprising Song Jian quite a bit.
Sunnyfire Shop, which already had Magic Flame, no longer needed Song Jian to craft items. What’s more, his level of craftsmanship was far inferior to those senior Life Professionals, as long as he ensured the stable supply of Magic Flame.
However, with his current strength, he could only separate so many Magic Flames. If he tried to separate more, it would be difficult, and the separated Magic Flames could be recalled with just a thought, without the chance of being stolen.
By the morning of the third day, Song Jian suddenly heard a pleasant system prompt in his ear. The turnover of Sunnyfire Shop had reached one million, the task was completed, and his relationship with Silver Moon Commerce instantly increased to Adoration;
Also, he only needed to pay 100,000 Doomsday Coins to officially buy the Sunnyfire Shop in his name;
You should know that even a Level 1 shop in the City of Hymns was worth several hundred thousand. Not to mention a Level 2 shop.
And having a property in the City of Hymns was equivalent to having citizenship in the city; this was a dream come true for players around the City of Hymns. However, no player had gained this qualification yet.
So as not to have a long night full of dreams, Song Jian directly deducted the 100,000 Doomsday Coins to formally transfer the ownership of Sunnyfire Shop to his name. At that moment, a system prompt suddenly appeared before Song Jian.
System: You now own a shop in the City of Hymns. Do you want to set up the safe teleport location inside this shop?
