Volume 1 Chapter 26 Bait
The gourd is already raised to the mouth; the wine is almost touching the lips...
I bit my tongue hard (it had to be hard, the pain simulation was only 10%), and the slight pain made me sober up a little. Damn, I can't drink this wine. I said one sip, but once it goes down my throat, how can I hold it back ? I must finish it all! This is 2,000 gold coins, which is 1,600 RMB! In the past, I only earned this much in half a month playing other online games. It seems that I can earn a little more in Fantasy, but I am not qualified to be so extravagant!
I took another sip of the intoxicating aroma, then I sighed and plugged the mouth of the gourd. If I take a few more sips, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold it in any longer. Alas, who told me I was poor? If I were rich, I wouldn't have to worry about how many times I could get drunk in my life. Such fine wine is an enjoyment that money can't buy!
I didn't feel like continuing to level up, so I went back to the city and called the profiteer, and he was still online.
The profiteer was practicing his skills in the city. He was quite surprised to see me return to the city. He asked, "Xue, how come you're back so soon? Did you die? That's unlikely!"
Without saying anything, I took the profiteer with me and left. When we got to the old place, I took out the gourd mysteriously and said, "Look, what is this?"
"This is..." Even the profiteer who was used to seeing the worst of the best was suddenly moved. He pointed at the gourd and asked excitedly, "Could it be monkey wine?"
"Ha, I knew I couldn't hide it from you! How about it? I'll let you run this, can you earn 2,000 gold coins?"
"2000?" The profiteer's voice almost snorted out, "Brother, you really have no business sense. At least you omitted one zero!"
"How is that possible!" I was shocked. 20,000? Although this wine is of top grade, I don't believe it can be sold for tens of thousands. That's almost the value of a Holy Spirit equipment.
"If we sell the whole gourd together, it's true that we can't sell so much, but I remember someone shared their experience during the internal test. Monkey wine can be bottled. A small bottle weighs one tael. A gourd can be divided into 10 bottles. Each bottle can increase the upper limit of HP and MP by 150. Don't underestimate this 150. For most magicians and archers in their early 20s, their own health points are only 300 or 400. Drinking a bottle is already very useful. I will take out another 1,000 gold coins for early publicity. In addition to system broadcasting in major cities, I will hire some low- level newcomers to brag about the efficacy and taste of this wine. Ha, it is guaranteed to be more sensational than the system auction. Brother, by then, you can count the gold coins until your hands are tired!"
Damn, he is indeed a profiteer. How come I can't think of such a good idea? But if I have this ability, why would I partner with a profiteer? Haha, luckily I resisted my urge to eat. 20,000 gold coins, I would wake up laughing in my dreams...
"Blood, I have another idea. Thieves also have low blood, so they will definitely be tempted by this wine. I'll spread the word that I'm interested in exchanging a bottle of monkey wine for a top-grade archer ring. What do you think..."
"Ahaha! Great idea! Genius! Swindler, you are definitely a genius!"
"Hehe, even if he doesn't come in person, he will probably send someone to contact you. You are at such a high level, you should be able to get a lot of information about him by using your gaze. If you arrange for someone to track him, there is a great chance that you can find the thief!"
"That's right. Unless he has already sold the ring, he will most likely be fooled. Humph, when I find this guy, I will make him pay!"
"OK, I'll go and arrange it. Haha, I haven't done such a big deal in a long time, I'm itching to do it!"
Suppressing my excitement, I continued to level up outside the city. Well, if I had remembered to equip myself with a bow and arrow earlier, otherwise the five or six monkey heads that escaped might have dropped another gourd! Ha, I was just daydreaming. The drop rate of Monkey Wine is not as good as that of Dark Gold Equipment. You may not get one even after defeating one or two thousand ordinary bosses. However, the lowest level of Monkey Wine among the four great wines is so rare and expensive. I really suspect that if I had drunk the wine in the gourd at that time, I would have been so drunk that I would have rushed to the Flower and Fruit Mountain in the East China to challenge the Monkey King.
June 8th, for the first time in a few days, I woke up after 5:00 a.m. Why? I had a dream last night, I dreamed that I was lying on a pile of gold coins, so many golden coins, I counted and counted, but I couldn't count them all, so it was such a beautiful dream, naturally I didn't want to wake up. Alas, who told me that I never made so much money playing online games before, this time I want to break the record!
I put on my helmet while humming a little tune, logged into the game, and habitually checked the rankings. Wow? The orc is 26, awesome! Hmmmm, I can't get carried away, I have to work harder. I kill, I chop, I stab! 555, now it takes 4.8 million experience points to level up, and I'm still more than 1 million away from chopping until noon!
I continued after lunch and finally reached another level in the afternoon. Haha, I’m only two levels away from being able to wear dark gold armor!
Return to the city, huh? What does this mean? A big balloon rose above the return point, and a banner hung below it: This city will auction the first player-organized Monkey Wine auction at the auction this week. Those who want to buy should hurry up!
Damn, it's really hard to pronounce. It seems that the profiteer is planning to set aside the system auction and hold a monkey wine auction on his own. Well, there seems to be relevant regulations in Fantasy that allow this, but the procedures are extremely complicated, and you have to apply for a venue or something. I'm not a business route player, and I haven't paid attention to it. But it's very expensive to do this, don't lose money when the time comes! However, the profiteer must have his reasons for doing this. I am absolutely confident in his ability, so let him do whatever he wants.
Just at this time, the profiteer M said to me: "Blood, the fish has taken the bait. I have an appointment with him to discuss in detail at Taibai Restaurant at 8:00 pm. Do you know what to do?"
Ha, is there anything you don't understand? I contacted Ah Wei and told him to do this and that. I'll go practice riding skills leisurely and wait for the time to come. I want to see who this little thief is and how dare he mess with me, the number one master of fantasy!
