Chapter 35 – Selling Equipmen (1/2)

t

After Fatty logged on, he heard a series of system notification sounds. His inbox was filled with mail. It was clear that those people still did not give up on the City Construction Token.

“Public auction after a month. Please come and show your support if you’re interested,” Fatty answered them one by one. Ahh, they finally stopped. Quite a few players should reach Level 30 and established their guilds. The City Construction Token’s going to be worth the most then.

Fatty contacted TheFugitive, but saw that the latter logged off as well and did not log back on yet. Thus, Fatty went over to the bank and put the City Construction Token into the bank along with his other random items. He counted roughly several dozen items in his bank. Most of those were bronze items, with two silver items mixed in.

Then, he began to wait at the entrance to the bank. Since Liu Lan had not yet arrived, he decided to not waste the time standing around. He took out a few items from his bank, put them on the start, then started doing business.

“Come and take a look. Freshly dropped bronze items. These are must-haves for players venturing into the wild. They are great equipment to use when fighting against your enemies. They are definitely valuable as presents for your wife. What? You don’t have one? Then buy it and gift it to someone else’s wife. She’ll become yours in no time.”

As Fatty called out, a crowd had begun to gather in front of him.

“Bro, how much is this?” a warrior picked up a saber with additional attributes.

Fatty took a glance. Meh attack, and only STR +1. It was basically a trash of a bronze item that was worse than some common ones. However, that was no surprise, since Fatty chose some equipment with mediocre stats to sell. He was leaving the best for the auction to maximize his gains.

“5 gold coins,” Fatty said a random number.

“Alright,” the warrior gritted his teeth and handed 5 gold coins over, then left with the saber.

“Bro, what about this?”

“I want this one!”

…

The fact that a bronze weapon was sold for 5 gold coins clearly made it seem very cheap. All of a sudden, the crowd of player swarmed up and fought over the right to buy the items.

“Bro, this axe has mediocre stats. That’s too expensive, right?” a muscular warrior picked up an axe with interest. However, he didn’t buy it immediately and merely started to bargain with Fatty.

“Big bro, it’s value for money. Look, DEX +5. Don’t underestimate these 5 points of Dexterity. Sometimes, even a tiny bit will change the outcome. Think about it, assume you’re teaming up with other players to kill a boss. You might be able to get the god like drop from the boss monster just because of these 5 points of Dexterity. Will you complain about how expensive this axe is then? Without these 5 points of Dexterity, what will you feel if that god like drop was taken away from you in front of your own eyes? Will you die in regret because you didn’t buy this axe from me? 10 gold coins isn’t expensive at all. Buying this axe is like buying a bunch of god like drops. What are you even hesitating for?”

“That’s true, what am I hesitating for?” the muscular warrior made up his mind and took out all of the money on him. He handed Fatty a pile of gold and silver coins worth 10 gold coins in total and bought the axe.

“Excuse us everyone. We’ll be buying all of the items here,” a group of people walked over. It was the Fierce Dragon Gang.

“Brother Grubber is in a nice mood,” Fierce Dragon TheTalent came over.

“So it’s Brother Fierce Dragon,” Fatty nodded. “Why did you go back yet? Does Brother Fierce Dragon want to develop your guild here in Black Tortoise City instead of Azure Dragon City?”

“Nah, the guild master of the Cloud Dragon Gang still didn’t give us the teleportation fees he promised, so we can’t leave even if we wanted to,” Fierce Dragon TheTalent smiled. “What’s more, there’s no space for us to develop with an expert like Brother Grubber in Black Tortoise City.”

“Brother Fierce Dragon, you’re too funny. All the large guilds are filled with talents, I don’t count as an expert at all,” Fatty shook his head, then pointed at his makeshift stall. “You want all of these items?”

“My guild has a lot of people, so we are lacking items. We can buy up however much equipment there is,” Fierce Dragon took out a pile of gold coins. “100 gold coins for all of them. How about that?”

“Ahh, I can’t,” Fatty smiled, but still quickly received the gold coins and handed the equipment over to Fierce Dragon TheTalent.

“Fatty, leave the items for me,” Liu Lan’s voice rang out at a distance.

“Here you go,” Fatty stuff all of the items into Fierce Dragon TheTalent’s arms, then turned around with a smile. “What a shame, you’re too late. I’ll definitely save it for you.”

“Damn fatty, you dare to sell it to someone else?” Liu Lan said angrily.“It’s not like I’m not paying you.”

“Then say something earlier,” Fatty said in a false troubled manner. “I would have saved it for you if you said you were going to pay me.”

“Damn fatty, you!?” Liu Lan couldn’t say anything due to anger.

“Brother Grub, where are you?” TheFugitive logged on and immediately contacted Fatty.

“Shh, I have a friend coming,” Fatty quickly changed the topic and told TheFugitive his location.

TheFugitive arrived quickly. When he saw Fierce Dragon TheTalent, he was stunned on spot for a moment. The two of them gazed at each other for a long time. Just as Fatty thought that a spark was ignited and a “star-crossed lovers fighting to kill each other” scene would happen, Fierce Dragon TheTalent smiled, then turned around and ignored TheFugitive.

Since players couldn’t attack each other inside of the city, TheFugitive walked over to Fatty’s side with his head held high, then clearly gulped when he saw the voluptuous Liu Lan.

“That’s the guild master of Misty Waterfall and the former ninth place on the leaderboards. Brother Grub, did you hook up with her using the City Construction Token?” TheFugitive nudged Fatty and whispered.

“You’re funny. The City Construction Token is so valuable. If I was going to hook up with anyone, I would use it to hook up with a few even prettier ones,” Fatty acted like he was outraged and looked down on TheFugitive’s sense of beauty.

“Damn Fatty, what are you saying? Are you saying that I’m not beautiful enough?” Liu Lan trembled in anger, making the peaks in front of her chest shake.

Fierce Dragon TheTalent looked at Fatty, then at Liu Lan. He clearly wanted to chat about the City Construction Token, but considered it for a moment then gave up. He smiled towards the two, then intelligently led his subordinates away.

“Such a deadly pair,” TheFugitive was practically drooling.
