Red Leaf Town, Fountain Plaza.
As the sun set in the west, a touch of red dyed the entire plaza red. Many Lifestyle players had set up food stalls beside the fountain, selling some snacks unique to God's Domain.
These snacks tasted fresh and delicious. They were much more delicious than the delicacies in the real world. Moreover, the selling price was only 2 or 3 Coppers. It could be said that these snacks were cheap.
After a day of hard fighting, many players would come here to rest and taste God's Domain's delicacies. After all, they could earn dozens of Coppers a day. After deducting their expenses, they would still have a little over 10 Coppers left.
Many couples sat on the stone chairs and chatted. They ate the snacks they bought while enjoying this beautiful time.
Suddenly, all the players in Red Leaf Town received a system notification.
System: Player has triggered a special storyline, activating the storyline "Little Fishmen's Riot." Red Leaf Town has activated a Punitive Quest. Players can go to the Adventurer's Guild to accept the Punitive Quest. Completing the quest will grant generous rewards and Guild Honor.
Suddenly, all the players became excited. In Red Leaf Town, where quests were scarce, there was actually a Punitive Quest. Moreover, the rewards were generous. It was simply unimaginable.
"Who is so amazing to actually trigger a special storyline?"
This player attracted the attention of the players in Red Leaf Town. Everyone could imagine that this player's harvest was huge. After all, a storyline had been activated. Such an occurrence was absolutely rare. How could the harvest not be generous?
Many players had thoughts of getting rid of this player who activated the storyline quest. Unfortunately, the system notification did not mention this player's name.
Compared to the ordinary players, the various large Guilds were already in an uproar. At this stage of the game, aside from clearing Dungeons, there were no other quests that could increase Guild Honor.
Guild Honor was a necessary condition for a Guild to level up. As long as a Guild could be promoted to Level 2, the Guild would be able to obtain the corresponding Guild benefits. This way, they would be a big step ahead of the other Guilds.
At this moment, it was not only Red Leaf Town that received this system notification. The various large Guilds began to plan a punitive expedition against the Little Fishmen.
Meanwhile, the main culprit that triggered the storyline, the Shifeng, was currently sitting inside the Auction House.
The Auction House was a very convenient place. The items placed by players could be seen not only in Red Leaf Town, but also in the hundreds of Towns and Cities under the jurisdiction of White River City. However, the Auction House was also very shady. The Auction House required a 5% handling fee. Hence, the prices of the items placed on the auction house were generally on the high side.
However, the Auction House was............... The various large Guilds should have collected a lot of money.........................................
.........................................................
Hence, Shi Feng placed a piece of Mysterious-Iron Plate Armor in the Auction House, with a starting bid of 25 Silver Coins. He also placed five pieces of Bronze Equipment, with a starting bid of 3 Silver Coins for the plate armor, and 2 Silver Coins for the rest of the equipment. None of these pieces of equipment could be used by the party. As for the Level 10 Fine-Gold ranked greatsword, it would be too frightening to put it up for auction. This was because this weapon was worth at least 2 Gold Coins, which was equivalent to 200 Silver Coins.
Following which, Shi Feng searched for a bag on the translucent screen. The starting bag only had 100 slots, which was far from enough for Shi Feng. Every player could only equip a maximum of seven bags. Hence, Shi Feng had purchased six of the largest bags currently available. Each bag had 25 slots of space, and each bag sold for 40 Copper Coins. Six bags would cost 240 Copper Coins. Ordinary players definitely could not afford such a price.
After equipping the six Backpacks, his storage space increased by a lot.
Shifeng then walked out of the Auction House. He set up a stall a short distance away from the Auction House. He had no interest in the triggered storyline quest at all.
He had already eaten his fill. He needed to let the others have some soup. So, he did not compete with them.
"Purchasing Magic Essences and Stones in bulk. A stack of Magic Essences for 6 Coppers. A stack of Stones for 10 Coppers!" Shifeng shouted.
At this stage of the game, Magic Essences were one of the materials used for Enchanting. Stones were also one of the materials used for Engineering. However, these materials were dropped by many Level 0 to Level 3 monsters, so they were not worth much. The materials obtained by Guild players could be used to supply the Lifestyle players of the Guild. Hence, they never purchased these materials.
However, there were still a large number of Magic Essences and Stones that could not be disposed of. Generally, players would choose to sell them to NPCs at a low price. A stack of 20 bottles of Magic Essences sold for 5 Coppers, and a stack of 100 pieces of Stones sold for 9 Coppers. Shifeng purchased them at a higher price of 1 Copper. Needless to say, many players were happy to sell them to Shifeng. After all, an additional 1 Copper per stack was a considerable income.
Magic Essences were a necessary material for the production of Garrison Armor. In addition, large amounts of Copper and Bronze Ores were also required. These ores were extremely rare, and the various large Guilds were purchasing them in bulk. Unfortunately, it was very difficult to obtain them.
Originally, Shifeng had intended to grind for ores themselves. However, with the Philosopher's Stone, ores were no longer a problem. The Philosopher's Stone possessed the ability to refine Elements. In other words, it could refine Stones. There was a high chance of obtaining ores, even rare ores. There was no need for them to grind for ores themselves. Stones were extremely cheap. Nearly 10,000 players had become Shifeng's employees.
Very quickly, a large number of players gathered in front of Shifeng.
"Brother, I have 6 stacks of Magic Essences. Do you want them?"
"I have 3 stacks of Stones. Do you want them?"
Many players started asking. They were worried that Shifeng's inventory was full. After all, there were too many Magic Essences and Stones. It would be a waste to sell them to NPCs. However, other players would not accept them. Hence, players kept them in their bags.
"I want all of them. Just trade them," Shifeng said.
Previously, Shifeng had accumulated a lot of wealth. In addition to his trade with Gentle Snow, he had accumulated quite a bit of wealth. He could easily purchase a large amount of Magic Essences and Stones.
In a short moment, one player sold 3 stacks of Magic Essences, while another player sold 5 stacks of Stones. Shifeng quickly purchased 60 stacks of Magic Essences and 85 stacks of Stones. The remaining money he had was less than 10 Copper.
"Sorry, I'm full," Shifeng explained as he packed up his stall.
Immediately, many of the players who had come to sell Magic Essences and Stones were disappointed.
"Brother, will you still accept them in the future?" a player asked.
"I will. However, it will take some time. You can store them for now," Shifeng said. With the amount of Magic Essences and Stones he had purchased so far, it was not enough for Shifeng to become an Advanced Forging Apprentice.
After leaving the Commercial Street, Shifeng arrived at the Forging Association. He spent 5 Coppers to rent a Normal Forging Room for one hour.
