Game login day 23, nighttime.

“Crash, bang, boom…”

“Beep, beep, beep!”

“Hello…yes, yes, yes.”

“Darling, this is the last Rare Remnantsoul we have here. It’s such a rare opportunity, think about it, owning a unique troop type could offer you chances to level up further. No matter how much money you spend, it’s totally worth it…”

On the other side of the forum’s private chat, Mu Yuan seemed to have witnessed an older player frowning, hesitating for a long time, his heart aching, yet eventually gritting his teeth heavily and crying out, “Buy!” Then collapsed in his chair as if exhausted by all strength, much like his empty wallet that was probably in debt. But upon thinking about the coming prospects, a chrysanthemum-like smile bloomed across the old player’s face: it’s all about fully supporting the potential of those unique troops.

After the transaction was completed, Mu Yuan glanced at the trading area again and connected with another old player:

“Sweetie, this is the last Rare Remnantsoul…”

He was like a salesperson, or rather a middleman, continually selling various goods, from the cheapest Goblin Wraiths to the precious Rare Remnantsouls, as well as materials like the Snake Scale Fruit, playing the role of a merchant player.

There were quite a handful of merchant players like him, some Lord Players would also work part-time as middle-men to earn some extra income for their territories.

Old Brother Mai Wa is now engaged in sales. He wholesales goods from the One-Handed Chamber of Commerce and resells them at a slightly higher price to various players, making a profit.

To outsiders, Mu Yuan is also such a middleman — a pretty competent new merchant who can come up with numerous Three-star Remnantsouls and even Rare Remnantsouls. However, the goods he has are not from any wholesale; he obtains them all by himself.

“The harvest was a bit too much today. I’ve been selling till now and I have only just sold most of it. I’ve really worked hard.”

He could certainly sell it for a bit cheaper which would allow it to be sold out immediately, but when it comes to making money, it’s always preferable to hang a higher price first and then haggle back and forth with the buyer… especially when selling treasures like the Rare Remnantsouls.

Lord Shepherd put his back into it for his household.

Tomorrow, he must deliver this batch of goods to the Players Association via the official trading channels, the advantage of doing this is that the Officials act as a guarantor, neither the buyer nor the seller needs to meet in person. But the downside is… the shipping cost and the guarantor’s fee are not cheap.

For him to trade privately? Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Three Rare Remnantsouls were sold out for 9.5 Soul Crystals. The price was not much higher compared to the Contribution Points, but if you exchange the Contribution Points, you would receive your goods in half a day to one day, while using Soul Crystal Coins… you often have crystals at hand but can’t find the goods.

If he’s willing to hang it for a few more days, exerting a bit more, he might be able to earn more.

However, even if he earns more, he has to deduct the official shipping guarantee fee as well as the Eternal World’s Trans-dimensional Fee, these are the real bosses always making fat profits!

Mu Yuan roared out of heartache for Duo Lai: Damn you ( « > UH < )!

Finally, he recycled the Royal Griffin Remains to the Taixuan Covenant Platform and got ‘300 Contribution Points + 5 Soul Crystals’ — well, the recycling rules of the Taixuan platform are: it can only give you less than half of the Contribution Points, the rest is replaced with Soul Crystal Coins, unless the recycled treasure is extremely valuable.

Obviously, the trashy Royal Griffin is far from being a treasure, it just barely meets the platform’s recycling requirements.

Apart from that, the prices of ordinary Three-star Remnantsouls have started to fall drastically. It is clear that at this point the Whales are no longer buying Remnantsouls and are moving on to hoard war supplies.

“I have more than twenty Soul Crystals that can be used now, it’s about time I turn into a Whale and start purchasing on a grand scale.”

Stamina Recovery Potion? Order it!

Energy Restoration Potion? Order it!

Junior Building Repair Stone? A must-buy!

Scrolls of Wall? It’s good to have some on hand in case of emergency.

Wealthy Lord Mu placed orders repeatedly. The more he roamed the trading area, the more supplies he found he could prepare in advance.

Take a common-level potion named ‘Ground Hardening’ for example. It has the effect of turning loose soil hard and can be a great help in building basic mud walls.

And also a variety of magic scrolls that can be used for both killing enemies and many other auxiliary uses. Mu Yuan couldn’t help but buy over ten types as reserves, most of them being auxiliary techniques.

Including ‘Ground Hardening’, ‘Root Entanglement’, ‘Junior Invisibility’, ‘Junior Insight’, ‘Junior Purification’, and so on and so forth.

Most of these scrolls might not be used at the time, but once he encounters special circumstances, using techniques specifically for such situations can definitely solve urgent problems.

Mu Yuan listed over a hundred possible situations that he might encounter, and based on these, he made careful purchases of scrolls and supplies. Only in this way, could he gain a bit more peace of mind when facing the Lord Trial.

“Money is just not lasting…”

Scraping for small gains, he had no right to call himself a Whale.

The next day,

Mu Yuan went out before dawn. After walking a few hundred meters, he scanned a green shared bike parked on the side of the road and cycled to the nearest subway station.

Influenced by the changes of an era, some people were restless, either excited or restless. The situation was inevitably a bit turbulent. But no matter how much it changed, as long as the apocalypse had not arrived, as long as a large number of mutated monsters didn’t crawl out from the sea… the people everywhere still had to continue to work diligently for their boss’s new car and new wife.

Many bitter and tired people crowded the early train on this subway line.

“Wonderful!”

After all, Lord Mu (scratches it off) had risen to the level of a ruthless boss. He was earning hard-earned money though!

The four Soul Orbs strung around his wrist trembled slightly, transmitting emotions of joy and delight.

Resentment was absorbed in large quantities, and the power of the Resentful Spirits was increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This was his plan.jpg!

By doing this, he might be able to lower the temper of the working people and maintain their physical and mental health… probably, he wasn’t sure if Resentful Spirits had such a function.

In just three or four stations, the four Resentful Spirits were already satiated. This was related to their low level, but it also showed that the modern environment was very ‘suitable’ for the healthy development of Resentful Spirits.

Thanks for the hospitality, I’ll be back.

After feeding the Resentful Spirits and sending and picking up goods at the Players Association, Mu Yuan returned to the villa he rented. As soon as he opened his computer, he set out cola, together with some fruits and snacks. His work for the day officially started.

“Eternal World, start up!”

The territory was exceptionally bustling today. Work was being done everywhere, Skeleton Warriors holding iron shovels were digging all over, and using small trolleys to transport the soil to designated locations. Mounding it up and shaping it into a vertical shape, then pouring some ‘Rock Solidification’ potion on it, a two-meter high, crooked, and squat block of soil was formed.

Emmmm, it looked pretty unique, but it was actually quite sturdy and long-lasting. Even a Skeleton Soldier’s battle blade could only hack some shallow traces on it.

In the interior of the territory, the layout was similar to before, the blacksmith’s shop was open twenty-four hours a day. However, not far from the blacksmith’s shop, a high silver tower had been erected..
