Chapter 7

"Where, where is there bronze equipment?" The one who responded to the voice was not just one person.

Here, having a stall did not necessarily mean there was something to sell. Being able to sell even one piece of white equipment was something to be proud of; most people were selling small pieces of dried meat and other items to restore health.

"Tsk, it's probably just hype. Our guild has eighteen people in the Shadow Valley, and we can only sell three pieces of white equipment. As for bronze equipment, the only piece we have is from killing an elite monster, and it's now being worn by our guild leader..."

"Damn, it really is bronze equipment and a skill book. Holy crap, what kind of skill book is this..." Not everyone disbelieved; some people came out of boredom, and when they opened the stall and saw what Lu Li had, they were speechless.

Then, more and more people gathered.

Why is this happening? Lu Li was also speechless.

In his previous life, when he entered the game, it had already been running for a long time. The newbie village was lively, and there were many people with stalls, but it was absolutely not as—noisy—as it was now.

It's just bronze equipment, just a skill book, how inexperienced!

"Brother," the surprise would eventually pass, and this slightly calmer person started to negotiate, "I really want this Monty's Scythe, but 1 gold and 50 silver is a bit steep, isn't it?"

"The Solid Ring for 2 gold, damn, who has 2 gold now, I'll eat shit live if they do!"

"Frost Nova, this skill is amazing. Brother, 20 gold is too much for our Grand Blueprint guild to pay. How about we trade with real money? We'll transfer the money to you first, and once you confirm receipt, we'll get the skill book..."

Grand Blueprint!

That was the dominant guild in the popular game "Shadow Realm," not at all inferior to the Star Moon guild.

I didn't expect someone from a major guild to be so polite, completely lacking the legendary arrogance.

With such a proposal, paying first and then discussing the skill book, it showed their sincerity. Even Lu Li couldn't help but be a bit tempted.

The player "Bitter Wine Solo" was indeed a celebrity, one of the four hall masters of Grand Blueprint. In the future, he would lead eight hundred-person teams to the dark city of the evil faction, wiping out several villages.

20 gold was indeed a problem. Even if Grand Blueprint was one of the top ten guilds of the light faction in the future, they couldn't gather 20 gold, let alone with their members scattered all over.

Lu Li thought for a few seconds, took out the communicator from his waist, and entered the group number of the Star Moon guild.

"Calling the manager, calling the manager..."

"Don't call, we're on our way," Square Root Three replied quickly, clearly someone had reported to the upper management of the Star Moon guild.

"Hmm," then Lu Li didn't say anything, just continued to stand there like a statue.

Not long after, Square Root Three arrived, and this time he wasn't alone. Seven or eight people followed him, all with excited faces.

"Alright, pack up your stall. The guild will take everything you're selling. We'll settle with the finance department and transfer the money to your account," Proud Sword said naturally, and everyone around was stunned.

"Hey, isn't that Proud Sword? Brother Proud Sword, that's not fair. There's a first-come, first-served rule, and at the very least, the highest bidder should get it," Bitter Wine Solo quickly held onto Lu Li. How could he let go of such a rare skill book? Any ambitious person wouldn't miss this opportunity.

"Ha, drunkard, this isn't your business," Proud Sword looked at Bitter Wine Solo with a half-smile, "Lu Li is part of our guild's gold farming team, with a formal contract. Do you think I have the right to make decisions?"

"Gold farming team?" Bitter Wine Solo was shocked, "This expert is part of your Star Moon guild's gold farming team?"

The onlookers were also stunned.

This is too ridiculous. Someone who can sell two pieces of bronze equipment and a super rare skill book would be a gold farmer?

Is the Star Moon guild so talent-rich?

Money多多 jumped out, looking down on everyone and sneered, "Ha, inexperienced fool, he's an expert? Who knows what luck he had, getting some items and selling them without telling the guild..."

"I haven't had the chance to tell them yet," Lu Li responded calmly.

"What do you mean you haven't had the chance? You've already signed a formal contract with the guild. Any equipment you get belongs to the guild," Money多多 said sternly, "By selling the equipment, you're breaking the rules. If you sell it, we can pursue legal action."

Anyone would get angry. Lu Li had never liked people like Money多多. Hearing this, he immediately put the skill book back in his bag, "The contract I signed isn't a regular gold farming contract. I'll keep this book."

Frost Nova was a surprise. According to Lu Li's plan, opening three treasure chests every 24 hours would yield three bronze items, so in a week, he would have at least 20 bronze items, enough for 20 gold.

The contract he signed was basically about 20 gold per week for three months, with no other restrictions.

After three months, when Lu Li's contract with the Star Moon guild expired, if he continued to use the helmet, he would need to pay the Star Moon studio 10,000 real money. During this period, all the gold Lu Li turned in would be paid back at 80% of the market price.

Thinking of this, Proud Sword's face turned cold, but he was too proud to say anything soft.

Seeing Proud Sword's expression, everyone knew Lu Li was telling the truth. Money多多 couldn't be arrogant anymore, like he had choked on cold water, just opening his mouth but unable to say anything.

"Ha, that's perfect. Our Grand Blueprint will pay a high price for this book, 20,000 real money. I wonder if Brother Lu Li is willing to part with it," Bitter Wine Solo was delighted and took the opportunity to name a price that would shock anyone.

20,000 yuan, Lu Li's heart raced.

"I think this is a good deal," just as everyone was discussing and gloating, Square Root Three quickly spoke up, "Let's count this book as the 20 gold for this week. You'll complete your task and can play the game more easily..."

This is the difference in how people handle things. Square Root Three's words made Lu Li unable to stay calm.

Living under someone else's roof, eating their food isn't easy.

To be honest, whether the Frost Nova book was worth 20 gold was hard to say.

Just looking at the attributes, no one would say it wasn't worth 20 gold.

But the key was that no guild could come up with 20 gold in a short time, and it might take several days for anyone to gather that much.

When everyone was saving money to form guilds, gold was more valuable than anything.

That's why Square Root Three was good at handling people! In his previous life, the Star Moon guild became a well-known major guild, and Square Root Three's external role was clearly more important than second-generation rich kids like Money多多.

"If there's no problem, let's count it as 20 gold," Proud Sword, who was always looking down on others, wasn't stupid and knew when to back down. Even though he didn't really want to agree, he had to nod.

As for Money多多, he was now acting like a孙子, afraid that Lu Li would still hold a grudge over his earlier arrogance.
