210 For the Ring’s Sake (1/2)
The moment Jiang Fei logged into the game, Isabela, appeared beside him and promptly asked, ”Where the hell did you go?!”
The game operated in a way where it closed all day, only opening up at 10pm. Those hours of downtime would be equivalent to a split second in the game. From Isabella's perspective, Jiang Fei had just flashed in and out of existence.
Jiang Fei bit his lips and said, ”Just where all the adventures go. The Adventurer's World.”
”Oh wow. Adventurer's World… Could you please take me there?” Isabella asked.
”What? Of course not!” cried Jiang Fei, knowing all too well that it was impossible.
”Hmph! Niggard…” Isabella mumbled underneath her breath. However, after that short burst of temper and a roll of eyes, she kept quiet and spoke no further about the ”Adventurer's World.”
…
”Buying all Level 20 and above, Green Smithing or Jewelry Crafting Recipe!”
”Buying all Level 20 and above, Green Smithing or Jewelry Crafting Recipe!”
”Buying all Level 20 and above, Green Smithing or Jewelry Crafting Recipe!”
Jiang Fei entered the day that day with a sense of purpose. He immediately spent 100 gold coins to put up advertisements all over the city.
”Brother Fei, are you really buying Green graded recipes?”
The first person to message Jiang Fei was Smart Tomato. From his perspective, Jiang Fei was the richest, dumbest person in the game. Like a man with an indispensable amount of cash, Jiang Fei bought anything without even attempting to haggle! Ever since Smart Tomato had befriended Jiang Fei, his earnings had doubled!
”Oh yea. I'm buying those. Do you have any of them?” Jiang Fei replied instantly.
”As a matter of fact, I have two. A Level 25 Chainmail Chest piece and a Level 20 Wristguard. Both Green.”
When Smart Tomato learned that Jiang Fei was a Divine Blacksmith, he dared not approach Jiang Fei when it came to dealing with recipes, fearing that the recipes might be too low a grade for someone like Jiang Fei, renowned Blacksmith. To prevent himself from being humiliated, Smart Tomato was smart enough to avoid offering anything that was as cheap as his Green recipes. However, what Smart Tomato did not know that Jiang Fei had never thought that Green recipes were cheap, to begin with. Sure, Blue grade equipment were stronger, but the cost of the materials and the success rate of actually crafting one was just too much for Jiang Fei to handle at that time. Jiang Fei wanted the Green graded recipes to feed the ring. Even though Jiang Fei was rich, his wealth was not infinite.
”How much are you selling them for?” Jiang Fei asked bluntly.
”I'll give you a lower price if you take both. 1,500 gold coins,” said Smart Tomato. Knowing Jiang Fei's appetite, Smart Tomato offered a slightly higher-than-market-value price. As long as it was not too much, Jiang Fei would always agree.
”Deal. Please come to XXX,XXX.”
As expected of the Divine Blacksmith, Jiang Fei did not even talk about the price. All he wanted was to quickly feed the ring. He had no luxury to think and lament about a few hundred gold coins as a huge loss. He was only able to be in that situation because Zhao Feng had helped sell that Jewelry Box. As a result, Jiang Fei had over 4,000 gold coins in hand. He was able to spend money, precisely because he had money! Of course, he had his lucrative sources of income.
Smart Tomato quickly met up with Jiang Fei. He would not keep such a generous benefactor waiting.
