Although Shi Feng was enjoying his leisure time selling equipment, Hammer Trading was not.
In order to compete with Shi Feng, Hammer Trading constantly forged new savage Chestplates. The Silver Coins in his hands were no different from Copper as they disappeared in an instant. Hammer Trading also had to spend Credits to buy more Silver Coins, giving him a huge heartache. However, when he thought of Shi Feng spending more than him, his heart was much calmer. He wanted Shi Feng to go bankrupt.
Meanwhile, Shi Feng left the busy Auction House.
He arrived at the Bank, storing all the Card Sets and Hard Stones he had collected into his warehouse. Shi Feng was overjoyed when he saw over a thousand of his warehouse slots filled.
This is the advantage of reincarnation. In his previous life, he was in a miserable state thanks to these items. But now, they become one of his biggest sources of income.
In the eyes of others, these items were still worthless. However, they would be priceless in the future. Their values could increase by more than tenfold, even tens of times. Especially applicable to Card Sets. A complete set will be worth dozens of times more than a single piece. Even so, the large Groups would still find it difficult to obtain them.
After finishing storing those items, Shi Feng made a trip to the Grocery Store. He bought five stacks of White Paper and one pile of pens and ink. Both of these items can be purchased at very low prices at the Grocery Store. A stack of 200 White Paper only sold for 10 Copper Coins, while a stack of 20 bottles of Black Ink sold for 15 Copper Coins. The best Fur Pen is also only sold for 20 copper.
Even so, Shi Fengs simple purchase far exceeded the daily income of an ordinary player.
An ordinary player would definitely not be able to shop in such a way. However, to Shi Feng, these Copper Coins could no longer be considered money. Moreover, these items were all necessary to create a Forging Design. Shi Feng would still buy them, even if they cost 10 Silver Coins.
After purchasing the item, Shi Feng headed for the Forging Association.
"Sir, do you need a cold drink? I have the best fruit juice in Red Leaf Town. It tasted really good, and only 1 Copper Coin per cup." A frail-looking young lady nervously asked a male Guardian Knight. The girl held a small basket, her doll-like eyes carrying earnest hope as she looked at the man.
"God! Don't bother me! It was just a virtual item, let alone a drink, but you actually asked for 1 Copper Coin for it? I don't want it even if you give it away for free!" The Guardian Knight cursed furiously, pushing the 16 or 17 year old girl away. He then added, "My luck was just bad. Just wait and see; I'll take care of you if I can't buy the Glazed Chestplate because you're holding me back."
Girl who was pushed but did not cry. Instead, he stood up without hesitation. He patted the dust off his clothes, proceeding to the other players with a smile on his face.
Shi Feng was somewhat shocked. He never imagined the girl to be so tough. The average female player would normally not do such a grueling task, not to mention receive insults from other players.
When Shi Feng saw this girl, he remembered himself in the past.
Shi Feng used Observing Eyes on the girl.
Violet Cloud, a Level 1 Religious Leader
Shi Fengs heart stiffened slightly when he saw this name. This girl truly was Violet Cloud, one of the top ten Religious Leaders in the God's Domain. If he could recruit her to his side, his team would have a sizable future.
"Ha ha ha! It's a virtual game, but you're really trying to make money selling cold drinks? Do you think you are Milk Tea Sister [1]? Only a fool would buy it. Seeing you're beautiful, why don't you come to my place tonight? I can even give you 1 Silver Coin." A lecherous man in his thirties walked up to Violet Cloud, drooling as he molested her.
"Master, I only sell cold drinks. Please have self-respect." Violet Cloud took a step back, resolutely saying.
"I've given you a compliment, but you're still stubborn. You're just a lowly Lifestyle player. If you disagree with me today, then you can forget about doing business here in the future" The lecherous man threatened angrily. He blocked Violet Cloud's path, stared at her snow-white neck and licked her lips.
"How can you act like that? You're really shameless!" Violet Cloud's eyes were filled with anger. However, he could not win against her in a fight. If he continued to waste time here, even his last hope would be lost.
"Hehe, I'm shameless. What are you gonna do about that? Biting me?" The man felt better when he saw Violet Cloud's panicked expression.
Seeing Violet Cloud trying to endure the cries and tears rolling in her eyes, she had even become sweeter.
"Uncle, please give way. I want a thousand cups of Fruit Juice." Shi Feng used Observing Eyes on the perverted man. His name was displayed as Drifting Blood, and he was currently Level 3. At this stage of the game, the level is considered relatively good.
Drifting Blood turned towards Shi Feng, throwing a sharp glare, saying, "Look, this girl is mine. If you don't want anything to happen to you, then get rid of it. You want a thousand cups? Then I want ten thousand cups. Do you think you are a noble capable of taking out 10 Silver Coins easily? If you continue to compete with me like a fool, I will send you back to Level 0."
"Ha ha ha! Fun show at the beginning of the day. Do it! Don't hold back! Don't argue if you can fight!"
"Based on nobility, spending 10 Silver Coins just like that. Unfortunately for him, he angered Fatty Bear [Self Defense Union]. There will be an entertaining show to watch."
"What a nobleman; I'm sure he's just bragging to impress the girl. If he can actually take out 10 Silver Coins, I will do a live broadcast of myself eating dirt."
Some people were busy stopping to watch the scene that was happening. They all started discussing about Shi Fengs actions.
Shi Feng paid no heed to Drifting Blood at all. He grabbed Drifting Blood's shoulder, giving it some strength.
Before Drifting Blood could react, he was already kneeling on the ground. No matter how much power he used, even to the point where his face turned red, he still could not stand back up.
The surrounding spectators were instantly dumbfounded.
Shi Feng was too bold, instantly taking action within the location of Red Leaf Town. Was he not afraid of being captured and imprisoned by the Guards?
How could Shi Feng have such great strength? He had truly looked down on a Level 3 Guardian Knight with one hand.
"Son, you really want to die. Just wait until the Guards arrive," Drifting Blood looked towards Shi Feng, smiling in disdain.
However, after waiting for a while, the Guards had still not appeared...
Shi Feng did not pay attention to Drifting Blood as he forcefully pressed it against the ground, preventing it from even moving. Shi Feng looked towards Violet Cloud, his other hand holding 10 Silver Coins, saying, "Thousand Fruit Juices, thank you."
The players on the street, who had previously discussed amongst themselves, suddenly fell silent, their eyes almost out of their sockets.
This was 10 Silver Coins, not 10 Copper Coins. Right now, they already felt extremely rich even by owning one Silver Coin. On the other hand, Shi Feng easily took out 10 Silver Coins. How rich was Shi Feng? Is he really a Brother Nobles?
Violet Cloud rubbed her eyes. He looked at the 10 Coins in Shi Fengs hand that gave off a silvery light, his expression filled with incomparable shock. Initially, he thought Shi Feng was just trying to help him by saying that. Never would he have imagined that he would actually spend 10 Silver Coins to buy a thousand cups of cold drinks that no one wanted.
Drifting Blood was similarly shocked. However, the surprise quickly turned into greed. He was thinking of seizing 10 Silver Coins and using them to purchase a Glazed Chestplate. There will even be excess left.
"Well, I'm a member of the Martial Union. If you don't want to be killed back to Level 0, quickly give me 20 Silver. If you do, I could consider letting you go this time. Otherwise, you will have to take responsibility for the consequences," Drifting Blood's gaze was attached to the 10 Silver coins as he threatened in a cold tone.
Disregarding Drifting Blood, Shi Feng looked at Violet Cloud. Seeing that the girl did not react, he asked, "Didn't you have a lot of fruit juice?"
"Ens. I only have 156 cups of Fruit Juice now. How about you give me one Silver Coin, and I'll sell you all that Fruit Juice? Is that okay?" Violet Cloud was worried that she would infuriate Shi Feng. What would he do if he suddenly decided not to buy? At the same time, he also wanted to thank Shi Feng for helping him, so he reduced his selling price.
"alright. I wonder how long it will take you to make 900 cups of Fruit Juice? I want everything," Shi Feng nodded after thinking, asking.
The players around him were all dumbfounded. What is he planning? Does this brat know the value of 10 Silver Coins? Did this boy really like this young lady?
"I was very slow in mixing Fruit Juice. If Master is willing, I can be finished in thirty hours." Violet Cloud was overjoyed to hear Shi Fengs words. However, when he thought of his extremely slow speed, he was worried Shi Feng would no longer want to buy it. So, he stretched out five fingers, hurriedly saying, "What about this? I will only ask for 5 Silver Coins for 900 cups."
