"Waiter, give me 50 meat buns and 10 sesame seed cakes." At four in the morning, Dongfang Qingyu punctually appeared at the entrance of the bun house. This was the image of Dongfang Qingyu. However, although his appearance was ugly, his temperament was completely different from when he had first entered the game.
Although 20 days of gaming were not enough for a newbie to complete the transformation from a Old Player to a newbie, it was enough for a person to blend into a foreign environment without being seen at all. Without looking around, without making a fuss about all sorts of weird things related to Novice Village, and without having to keep gaping at the high price of an item, entering and exiting the Novice Village was as natural as returning home.
The grass shoes on his feet had been worn down and scrapped on the fifth day. There were people who worked on the grass shoes using Novice Village, but no one who worked on the grass shoes. After asking about the price, Dongfang Qingyu decided to give up on the desire to buy the grass shoes.
A pair of grass shoes required 1000 copper coins, so he might as well go and snatch them. The important thing was that the Durability was not that high, and was even weaker than the ones gifted by the System. He regretted wearing the grass shoes that the System gifted him.
Of course, the change from being a newbie to an old one was still reflected in the food. Previously, it had been a bag of vegetable buns, but now it was a meat bun along with a sesame seed cake. A vegetable bun cost 50 copper coins each, a meat bun cost 75 copper coins each, and a sesame seed cake cost 100 copper coins each. Dongfang Qingyu did not do this purely to enjoy himself. Eating more meat could improve his body.
However, in general, his food was better than before. If he had just entered the game, he would never have eaten like this.
"Alright!" In the blink of an eye, he had already filled the bags with buns and scones. With 52 buns and 10 scones, this waiter was very good at doing business, and in the entire Novice Village, only this waiter knew of relationships. In the past, he had only gifted her a bun, and after Dongfang Qingyu had added 10 sesame seed cakes, he had gifted her two.
When he arrived at the Novice Village entrance, Dongfang Qingyu saw seven or eight people gathered together, and couldn't help but be puzzled. At this time, there were very few players, and most of them went offline overnight, just like, who was in a hurry. This was the first time Dongfang Qingyu saw people gathering together like this, and when he squeezed in to take a look, there were people selling things.
..." This is definitely a good item. I've asked for an appraisal fee of 20,000 copper coins from an appraisal master. If it's not a good item, can it be so expensive? " "The seller was a tall, thin, and anxious man who looked like a college student.
A slight exclamation was heard from the crowd. 20,000 copper coins was not a small sum. Several people looked at the items in the hands of the university students with fiery eyes.
"The price of an appraisal fee is directly related to the quality of the item. There are some rare items, and the appraisal fee is also very expensive, but the price might not be that high. 100,000 copper coins is too expensive, so the price you offered is not realistic." A Thief said. Although there was a possibility of the price being suppressed, he was right.
The《 Cosmos》 doesn't have many, but it's not few either. In the early stages, about 30% of the items have to be appraised, and the Novice Village is a bit lower, 20%, although low, but the majority of the items have already been appraised, and with a certain level of understanding, it's not too strange. For the purposes of appraised items, they have a certain gambling quality, good luck, and their value will soar by a hundred times, so it's possible that they're not worth even a single bit." For example, Sun Erniang's previous item, Sun Erniang's half of the red hair string.
If they could complete the mission, they should be able to get rich rewards. However, the holder had directly dropped the price from 50,000 copper coins to 5000 copper coins, but no one paid much attention to the quest. Most people did not think highly of the quest.
Old Player knew that one step was slow, one step was slow, and every step was slow. Even if one was lucky in the end to be able to complete the quest and receive a generous reward, the final result would still be a far cry from others.
The more powerful a player was, the more they would believe in their own strength.
"Boss, if you really want to buy it, I can lower my price a bit." The university student hesitated for a moment before saying.
"How much lower?" Another player, Archer replied.
"2 million." The university student clenched his teeth and said.
Archer shook his head and turned to leave. To reduce the price by twenty thousand, he still needed eighty thousand. It was too high.
"I have a feeling that this is definitely a good item. If I didn't have to pay the rent today, I definitely wouldn't have taken it out to sell." The university student said loudly. He looked around at the surrounding cold gazes and felt somewhat anxious.
"I suggest that you appraise it. This way, you can sell it for a higher price." He hesitated. He wanted to gamble, but he was afraid of losing.
Ignoring the fact that he did not have 20,000 copper coins, even if he did, he would not dare to gamble. If he lost, he would lose 20,000 copper coins, which he did not want to face.
"If you really want to sell it for a better price, you'd better wait until around eight o'clock. When there's a lot of people, let's see if anyone else is interested." A warrior kindly reminded him. However, he wasn't too optimistic about this item, so he left right after.
"50,000 copper coins, the lowest price." When the university student said this price, his expression was filled with unwillingness.
The Rogue shook his head. He was gone. He was the most willing buyer. He was gone. The others were gone as well. The people who were going to log in had things to do, so they didn't have much time to waste. The university student looked at the thief's back and opened his mouth a few times, but no sound came out. His face was filled with despair.
"50,000 copper coins, I'll buy it." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"Really?" Joy instantly exploded out of the university student's eyes. He already did not hold any hope, so naturally, he saw that Dongfang Qingyu was the only one who did not leave, but Dongfang Qingyu's expression looked even more miserable than his.
"Here is 50,000 copper coins." Dongfang Qingyu had never been able to convert his comrades into silver coins. Suddenly, he took out 50,000 copper coins, which was a lot, and piled them up into a small hill.
"I …" The university student only handed the things over to Dongfang Qingyu halfway, but he started to hesitate. Dongfang Qingyu's straightforward manner of paying made him feel that the items were being sold cheaply.
"It's fine if you don't want to trade." Dongfang Qingyu saw through the student's thoughts at a glance, his impression of him immediately dropped and he kept the copper coin away.
"Wait — —" The university student quivered, threw the item directly into Dongfang Qingyu's hands, then pounced on the copper coin and loudly said: "The transaction has already been completed, this is mine."
Dongfang Qingyu shook his head slightly in his heart. He didn't even bother to say a few words before taking his things and leaving. But no one knew that his heart had been thumping nonstop, until the moment he turned around, when it slowly calmed down.
Walking to a place where there was no one around, he activated Identification Art on the item.
Ding! System Notification: Identification failed, Item Durability -1%, Proficiency + 0.0001%.
Ding! System Notification: Identification failed, Item Durability -1.2%, Proficiency + 0.0001%.
Ding! System Notification: Identification failed, Item Durability 2%, Proficiency + 0.0001%.
Ding! System Notification: Congratulations to player Dongfang Qingyu for successfully appraising, Proficiency + 0.002%, I hope player continues to improve!
A faint green light flashed. Even in the dim dawn, he was still able to see it clearly. Dongfang Qingyu's eyebrows jumped and for some unknown reason, he became excited.
Ocean Blue Ring: Bronze grade, 70 spaces, load -30%, Durability 26/30.
This kind of ring, did not have a price of 500 thousand copper coins, 50 thousand copper coins bought it, in the blink of an eye it became 500 thousand, with a profit of 10 times more, than some mining money. At this time, he could not help but thank the old man who taught him Identification Art.
For normal bronze artifacts, 50 slots was already online. This one actually had 70 slots. It was definitely rare, and it wouldn't even be considered an exaggeration to call it outrageous. According to his estimate, selling for 600 thousand shouldn't be a problem, but unfortunately, carrying only -30% of the weight. If it was against the weight, selling for 1 million wasn't impossible.
It was a bit flawed, but Dongfang Qingyu was already very happy.
When people get happy, they would often laugh and their luck would not be too bad. Originally, they thought that when the mining area was about to dry up, they would dig another low quality ore that was more than a meter, and a bunch of Medium Grade Ore would appear. When they returned at night, they dug up a total of 1200 Medium Grade Ore.
With the Ocean Blue Ring, the 2,200 Hematite would be able to be fully stored in one go. An item of the same origin could take up one space, until it was filled up to one inch. Just like ore, one space could hold approximately 20 pieces, but it was not of the same origin. Even if it was just a finger sized piece of metal, it could still take up one space.
It was because of this characteristic that spatial equipment were especially attractive to absentees.
Returning to the Novice Village, he sold all the ores and earned 195,000 copper coins. This amount of money was something he did not dare to think about before, but now, he could already afford to not change his expression. Of course, he could not avoid the joy in his heart. Trading with the Dwarf Man was the most direct process. There was no need for pleasantries or haggling, basically, the transaction was completed in less than a minute.
Dongfang Qingyu made a trip to the bank and transferred 10,000 yuan to the bank. There were still 400,000 + copper remaining, and only then did he log off.
Although the trading of copper coins in Novice Village was the main trend, taking a pile of copper coins for a large transaction was very inconvenient.
