Genius One Second Remember Love Go Away? To provide you with exciting novels to read.

If it was just the No. 7 Administrative Order, which was used to create a guild, it might not sell for much. After all, a level 1 guild only needed 20 gold coins and could only accommodate 1000 people after it was built. They couldn't even recruit their own people, so there was no need to rush to recruit people all over the world.

However, No. 17 was different. This item could double the maximum number of people in a guild, a total of 2000 people, so they could recruit many more players.

Therefore, when they found out that there was a Guild Upgrade Order in Moon Shadow Valley, many guilds sent representatives. Even the Evil Faction guilds paid attention to this matter.

In Dawnlight, cross-faction transactions were not allowed, but it did not mean that items from both sides could not be circulated. After the system update next Monday, there would be a black market. Apart from this, items could be dropped by killing people or picked up after being thrown on the ground.

"He's here, Lu Li is here, Lu Li is here to sell equipment."

"I wonder what good equipment will be sold today. I bought 2 gold coins on the trading platform."

"Poor bastard, you still have the face to show off with 2 gold coins? I bought 9 gold coins on one order."

"Haha, some idiot bought my order. I bought it at 800 gold coins in the morning and put it up at 1000 at night. There were actually people who bought it. I made more than 2000 gold coins from selling it."

… …

As night fell, Lu Li set up his stall. Bronze equips were sold for 20 silver coins, while Exquisite equips were sold for 50 silver coins. Exquisite weapons were a little more expensive. As soon as 14 or 15 of them were put up, they were all snatched up by the players who had been waiting for a while.

"Iron Hammer, Healer, Priest, Knight, Shaman; Guild Upgrade Order, I don't need to explain. These two items will be auctioned together, starting price 1 gold coin. Everyone, let's begin. If you want to trade with real money, add 20% more to your account according to the trading platform's average price." Lu Li did not have the talent of an auctioneer, but it was a seller's market now, so there was no need to worry about no one buying.

The players looked at each other, as if trying to see how much their potential opponents would pay.

Currently, MT equipment was the most valuable, followed by healers, and then the main DPS classes. A hammer that increased healing was indeed exciting.

Of course, a single piece of Steel grade equipment wasn't enough to attract the attention of a large guild. Most guilds in the Elite-ranked Spider Lair could organize a dozen or so waves every day, and every time, they would obtain at least one or two pieces of Steel grade equipment. It was just that the guild's demand was even greater, so they couldn't sell them.

"Five gold pieces," said someone.

Increasing the price by five times in one go was not because this person was rich and overbearing. Everyone knew that the starting price of one gold coin was a joke.

"10 Gold." Since someone had already started bidding, regardless of whether he could win the bid or not, he had to bid a higher price to be at ease. Moreover, if he couldn't win the bid, he had to make the person who won the bid lose a bit more money.

It had to be said that the dark side of human nature helped Lu Li a lot.

Following which, more and more people placed their bids, and the price rose rapidly. Very quickly, it reached 30 Gold. Only a large Guild was able to continue bidding.

The first Guild to level up would easily become the first to be attacked. If the Guild was too weak, it would not be worth it. Only a Guild that could rank within the top 100 in the country could make good use of the reputation of being the first Guild to level up.

"30 Gold. Using materials to level up a Guild only costs 20 Gold. Everyone, take it easy." Leveling up a Guild required ores, wood, and gems. If guild members were mobilized to mine them, the cost would naturally be lower. Even if they bought them from the market, the cost would be limited. Of course, it was almost impossible to obtain them with 20 Gold.

"Get lost. We'll take it easy and let you win. 40 Gold. We, the Iron Brothers, will take it today," shouted a player.

"What bullsh * t Iron Brothers? Does the Capital of Glory think that everyone else is stupid? The Evil Faction's hands are so long. Be careful that you don't get wiped out." The Iron Brothers sounded like a close relative of Blood Red War Flag, but in reality, they were spies that Blood Red War Flag's biggest rival, the strongest Guild in the Evil Faction — The Capital of Glory had placed in the Light Faction.

Unfortunately, an MMORPG was just an MMORPG. Its organizational structure could never be flawless. Everyone knew about this.

"Blood Red War Flag bids 80 Gold. If your Blood Brothers dare to bid again today, I guarantee that your Guild members won't be able to leave the safe zone," a Dark Elf Druid sternly said as he pointed at the nose of the person who had just bid, the threat in his words clear.

Lu Li frowned, but did not say anything. Although the people from Blood Red War Flag were a little arrogant, they were quite honest. They had doubled the price in an instant. This amount had already exceeded the price he had in mind.

Selling a virtual item for nearly 100,000 Gold was already a very rare income.

As expected, after Blood Red War Flag bid, the other Guilds all gave up.

Blood Red War Flag was ranked third in the country, but they were ridiculously strong. They could go toe-to-toe with The Capital of Glory, which was ranked first, for many years without falling. They could also beat the Gangnam Royals, which was ranked second. There were not many people who dared to provoke them.

Lu Li suddenly realized that this kind of manual auction was not without its disadvantages. If a giant like Blood Red War Flag were to bid, it would be very difficult to sell the item at such a high price. However, this was not a problem. After the system update next week, the Exchange Hall would appear, and all the players who were online could participate in the auction.

After deducting the portion that he had given to Weilan Haifeng, Lu Li still had 20 Gold in his hands, in addition to the 80,000 Gold that Blood Red War Flag had transferred to him.

Blood Red War Flag could not take out 80 Gold, so they could only use real money to trade. Right now, the exchange rate for gold was fluctuating around 800, and with the 20% premium that Lu Li had agreed to pay in real money, he had exactly 80,000 Gold.

Lu Li thought for a moment, and decided to keep all 20 Gold in his hands. He did not sell them on the Exchange Hall.

After the system update next week, there would be an Online Exchange Hall. At that time, there would definitely be some rare items that would be sold as trash by clueless players. With the confidence that the game would last for the next two to three years, Lu Li could easily pick up the leftovers.

Lu Li planned to send the 60,000 Gold penalty tomorrow. After calculating it, Lu Li really did not have the money to buy a helmet, so he could not use his three years of gaming experience to earn his first pot of gold. The Star Moon Guild was shocked by his promise of 20 Gold, and foolishly sent the helmet to him.

After that, everyone fell out, and Lu Li refused to fulfill the agreement of paying 20 Gold a week. According to the agreement, he had to pay double the price of the helmet, which was 60,000 Gold.

This mission that seemed impossible to complete had now been exceeded.

After deducting the 60,000 Gold, Lu Li still had around 30,000 Gold. This 30,000 Gold was money that he urgently needed to use.

With the popularization of AI, society's need for talents at the bottom of society was decreasing. No one knew when it started, but in what way, the government diluted the meaning of compulsory education. People needed to spend a lot of money to enjoy a "sustainable" education.

In the slums, there were two middle schools near Lu Li. One was a compulsory education, and could be entered with very little money. The enrollment rate had been zero for more than 10 years. The other one was not much better, but at least there were a few students who could enter the university every year. Lu Xin went to this school. The annual tuition fee was 10,000 Gold, which took up most of the siblings' social welfare funds.

Now that the Lu siblings had moved, they naturally would not go to the slums.

The First High School that Lu Li had his eyes on was the best school in the city, so it was naturally the most expensive.

After looking it up on the internet, the tuition fee for the second half of the school year alone was 30,000 Gold, and there were various other fees. Adding everything together, it would cost 100,000 Gold every year. It was a typical school for the nobles. Not to mention the slums, even the people in the slums might not be able to afford it.

In fact, there were a few other high schools around the university, such as the Second High School, the Third High School, and the Seventh High School. They were much cheaper, especially the Seventh High School, which was the first choice for the residents in the slums. However, Lu Xin wanted to give his sister the best, so he naturally wouldn't care about these second-rate schools.

He had to go through the transfer procedures next Monday, so he could only withdraw the 30,000 Gold for now.

Recently, Lu Li also planned to take his sister to a big hospital for a comprehensive checkup.

As a result, the 100,000 Gold that Lu Li had worked so hard to earn over the past few days was gone.
