Chapter 68：Rich (2/2)

Well, he hadn't introduced himself either, so he didn't think about it for too long. After reaching the sect, he logged out to check about the auctions.

It didn't take him long to learn how auctions worked in Eternal Cultivation.

'Wait. So my items won't get sold to the other players but the NPCs?' that was quite an unexpected piece of knowledge he had learned.

'Hmm… so how do Deva corporation make money at all?' he was confused. If players could sell in-game items to NPC and make money off of them, then the company should have gone bankrupt by now.

He researched a bit longer, and only then did he find out that players could convert the money in their banks to in-game currency. Of which, Deva Corporation took 10% charge.

Similarly, they also took 10% commission off what you converted back to real-world money.

'So they do what they can to take your money, and also do what they can to not give you your money,' he found it quite funny.

'Oh, that's right. Let's see what the conversion rate for the in-game currency is. Hopefully, I can make a few bucks with the items I'm selling.' He quickly searched up the current conversion rate for the game.

When he finally found it, he was shocked.

'That can't be right,' he looked at it again on a different site, but it showed the same result.

'Huh?? How can it be 10 dollars per common spirit stone?? Doesn't that mean I make uhh… 720 dollars after the deduction from the 80 spirits stones I will get?' he was truly flabbergasted.

He was expecting to make some 20~ dollars at best. But to think his items were valued at such a high price.

'They did say pills and artifacts sold the highest, didn't they?' he thought to himself.

After learning he could make quite a few amounts of money, his eagerness to practice alchemy and make more pills got reinvigorated. He tried to look at what prices which pills were being sold so he could make those exact pills, but unfortunately, the public had no information on most pills.

Regretfully, Alex closed his phone and went to go get his dinner along with Logan, Matt, and Eric. He was looking forward to getting back into the game, so he finished his dinner very fast and had to wait for the other 3 to complete.

Once he returned back to his room, he immediately logged back into the game to make some more pills. But then he remembered, He had work to do now that was assigned to him by his master.
