Chapter 253 - Poverty is a Single Word! (1/2)

After scanning through the content of the updates in the game, Jiang Fei received a mail from the system!

Sender: Auction System!

Sender: Auction System!

Sender: Auction System!

Your Dantian Pill has been sold in the auction at the price of 1,000 gold coins! A commission of 2% is charged to process the auction. Here is the payment you have received!

…

The series of system mails had all come from the Auction System. These were all the items that Jiang Fei had tried to auction off in the past.

However, due to the sudden game update, Jiang Fei's auctions had been interrupted mid-way. Therefore, he had been unable to make the best of the opportunity.

Besides, just as Jiang Fei expected, the Dantian Pills were left untouched. He had to arrange for someone to buy them. For that, he had to pay 20 gold coins for every transaction, which totaled up to 200 gold coins. It was quite a significant loss!

Apart from that, Jiang Fei was still rather satisfied with the price of the pet eggs. Out of the ten pet eggs, two of them were green Soldier Ant Eggs, while the remaining eight were white Worker Ant Eggs. The price of the Soldier Ant Eggs had soared over 1,000 gold coins, while the Worker Ant Eggs were priced at around 500 gold coins. In total, Jiang Fei had earned approximately 6,000 gold coins!

After paying off his debts, Jiang Fei was left with around 1,000 gold coins. Thereafter, Jiang Fei placed yet another ten pet eggs in the Auction System. Although continuously auctioning the pet eggs may potentially cause their value to fall, there were far too many players in Dawnlight City. Even a thousand of the pet eggs would not be enough to satisfy the players' demands!

After sorting matters out, Jiang Fei retrieved a golden treasure from his storage!

Territory Order!

This was something Jiang Fei had worked very hard on. Upon using it, he would be able to completely control the Ant Queen. From today onwards, the Ant Queen would be able to produce pet eggs worth 6,000 gold coins every day for Jiang Fei!

With both the Castle and the Guild Base, no one would be able to touch the Ant Queen unless they first occupied Jiang Fei's Guild Base.

Jiang Fei excitedly brought the Territory Order over to the City Hall.

There, he was met with a great shock, courtesy of the government official!

Jiang Fei was to pay 50,000 gold coins as a deposit! The figure sent his eyes flying open wide. He had initially been happy with paying off all his debt and still being left with 1,000 gold coins. In fact, he had once made fun of Happy Drunk for going around to raise money. Today, he finally had a taste of his own medicine!

"Holy shit! This is extortion! I don't even have 5,000 gold coins. Where would I find 50,000 gold coins?" Jiang Fei groaned, smacking his face.

In reality, if Jiang Fei had collected resources from Empyreal Dragon, it would not be too difficult to gather 50,000 gold coins. Although there were not many people in Empyreal Dragon, the girls who Jiang Fei had previously brought to clear Secret Dungeons were all insanely rich. At least eight of them had over 5,000 gold coins each. Therefore, raising 50,000 gold coins was not that difficult a feat!

However, Jiang Fei was determined not to borrow anything from the girls. From his point of view, this was a personal matter. Besides, he did not intend to share the Ant Queen with anyone else. The reason for using the Territory Order was not to build a suitable Guild Base for his guild. It was for the sole purpose of protecting the Ant Queen's nest!
