1:26pm, player No. 57 Lin Sanjiu, who just walked out of the hotel, has 96 physical points at the moment.
"What do you mean by two-way transaction..." Lin Sanjiu muttered, holding the half-drunk free drink in her hand, and pushed open the glass door - she didn't plan to do anything until she drank the drink completely.
Returning the cup: "... Do you want me to buy something and then sell it to the shop here?"
After learning that this section of the road would not involve fighting, she relaxed a lot, walked slowly, looked around leisurely, and walked towards a small green-tiled building on the opposite side of the road.
The people at the hotel told her that if she wanted to earn stamina points, she had to go to this two-story building first - the appearance of the building was quite ancient Chinese style, with green tiles and white walls, black wooden window frames, and two
Apart from the brass ring handle, there is not even a brand on the varnished wooden door, and it is impossible to tell where it belongs.
After pushing open the door and crossing the threshold, Lin Sanjiu's eyes were immediately caught by the object hanging in the center of the room.
"Hey, this guest, there are good seats inside -" A head suddenly emerged from behind the long wooden counter. A man who looked like a waiter had a smart smile on his face, and on his shoulders
He also put on a white towel: "Are you eating or doing business?"
Lin Sanjiu was a little dazed for a moment. He didn't bother to answer and looked around the hall on the first floor.
When viewed from the outside, this small building is not that big; it is just that its entire first floor has been opened up, forming a very spacious hall. In addition to some tables and chairs in a few distant corners, the most attractive thing is
What attracts most attention is probably the wooden counter in the center of the hall and the foot-long notice board hanging on the wall behind it.
The notice paper was embedded in a yellow wooden frame, occupying most of the wall; it was obviously written with ink on rice paper, but when Lin Sanjiu's eyes fell on the paper, she clearly saw the change of words - "Purity"
The number after "water/l" just changed from "0.23" to "0.25".
"...What, what is this?" Lin Sanjiu asked the waiter beside him, his eyes lingering on the notice board with surprise.
"Guest officer, this must be your first time back?" The waiter chuckled, "Then let me give you a basic introduction. Our place was originally called Yunlai Inn. Since the business was taken away by the hotel opposite, the shopkeeper stopped by.
We started a trading business... As a result, now everyone calls this place Yunlai Exchange. Look, is the notice board divided into several large blocks? "
Lin Sanjiu nodded stupidly.
"There are currently 12 roads in the amusement park. The serial numbers of all players on the last section of the road will be entered in the leftmost column... Yes. There is no final level for other roads. No matter where they are, they must collect 3500 points of physical strength.
Enter the end point. In addition to the serial number, there is also a transaction status; for example, you are No. 57, right? You keep looking down."
Following the waiter's instructions, Lin Sanjiu's eyes fell down. Originally, No. 41 was at the edge of the paper. But following her gaze, the list scrolled up as if she had sensed it, and soon it was displayed.
No. 57. Behind her own number, she saw two small words "Still", while some of the other numbers said "Buy" and some "Sell".
"The second column is information about all the stores on the 12 roads - they mainly include information on the products sold, but occasionally there may be acquisition information. If you want to buy or sell things on Frog Road, you don't necessarily have to go to Frog Road.
All you have to do is go through the exchange; you can also choose whether to buy virtual inventory or physical goods, which is very convenient."
"The third column is the material information. It integrates the resources sold by players and stores to get the total amount of materials on sale and the real-time market reference average price. The number you see refers to the physical value; the person selling it
If there are more, the price of the material will fall. If there are more people buying, the price of the material will rise... Isn’t it easy to understand? It also has another function. For example, if you want to buy bullets, then click here and you will see
Messages from all sellers selling bullets.”
With the waiter's words, sure enough, the ink on the paper quickly faded away and was reorganized into a "bullet list"; Lin Sanjiu took a look and saw that there were only five stores on the list, and the prices were only slightly different -
—If you rely on such a small distance to make a difference in price, I'm afraid you'll even have to pay for the handling fee.
The waiter pointed to the far right of the notice board: "The last column is trading news. If you are interested, you can also take a look."
There wasn't much text in "Transaction News", and Lin Sanjiu scanned it all at a glance; the news that was scrolling at this time was about the opening of a branch of a restaurant called "lips" on the Velvet Cake Road.
Velvet cake... isn't this where Kurosawa Kasumi is? This thought flashed through Lin Sanjiu's mind - I wonder if Kurosawa Kasumi has also entered the final stretch? What is his player number?
Although she didn't think about it in detail, she vaguely felt that if she could have an alliance, it would be much easier to earn physical strength points; but now was not the time to talk about this. Putting aside this idea for the time being, Lin Sanjiu turned around and asked
: "Can I talk to these players and stores through the exchange?"
The waiter nodded and smiled: "Of course. But you have to wait until the other party appears in the exchange to receive it... Generally speaking, for every message sent, we charge 1 physical value, and receiving and replying to the message is free; but you
As a VIP guest, we don’t charge for your messages.”
Unexpectedly, McDuck's ability would come in handy so quickly - Lin Sanjiu nodded and asked another question: "How much do you charge for each transaction?"
"Five percent of the transaction amount - of course, only three percent will be charged to you."
If the transaction amount is large, this can be said to be a very good discount; however, Lin Sanjiu currently only has 96 physical points, and he can't feel much difference at all.
After thanking the waiter, Lin Sanjiu found a chair and sat down. While sipping the drink in his hand, he stared at the notice board that changed from time to time.
...She needs to think carefully.
If she wants to earn as much physical strength as possible, she must first think about how to earn it - just like making money, in principle, it is nothing more than buying low and selling high...
"On the 12th road, there are about 20 players who have entered the trading mode now, which is much more than I thought." In order to better clarify his thoughts, Lin Sanjiu forced Teacher Yi to come out as a guest: "But
The stores are different... I have been scrolling down for nearly five minutes, and I haven't reached the bottom yet. I don't know how many stores are on the transaction list."
Teacher Yi yawned in her mind.
"The 20 players are the same as me. They all hope to save enough physical strength to enter the finish line as soon as possible, so the physical strength flowing out of the players' hands must be a very small part... Everyone is avoiding non-cost consumption." Lin San
Jiu didn't expect the teacher to have any good ideas, so he continued: "And even if each person has an average of 100 points of physical strength, this value is not low. It only adds up to 2000 points, and it's not enough for me.
...It seems that the focus is still on how to earn stamina points from the store."
That's what she said, but she looked at the store list for a long time and didn't see a few purchase information; the prices in various places were similar - the only one who wanted to buy it. It would be more appropriate to say it was a missing item notice: "I accidentally bought it.
I have lost a dog leash. Now I am willing to redeem it for 20 stamina points; if you have other dog leashes, you can also consider purchasing it."
With the idea of "it doesn't cost anything to ask anyway", Lin Sanjiu took her [Slave Girl's Binding Rope] to the waiter and asked - a minute later, the response from the owner of the shop came
: "...Hmm. I don't think it's appropriate to tie a dog with sex toys."
This is not a sex toy!
Lin Sanjiu simply didn't know what to say. She put away the binding rope in a fit of laughter and tears. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she turned around and asked the waiter: "...I see that several players are in the status of 'Selling'
Out', what are they selling? Who are they selling it to?"
"There are actually a lot of things that can be sold. They may be selling their own special items, or they may be selling their own services... Players and stores can buy them if they need it. Look at the list of supplies, don't they have different types?
?”
Lin Sanjiu looked up and found the two sub-categories of "Human Services" and "Special Items", with a few lines of words hanging sparsely inside. It was still hanging, which probably meant that no one had come yet.
purchase.
The waiter smiled and then sat back behind the wooden counter, "If you can't figure out what to trade, why not go for a walk?"
Lin Sanjiu thought for a while, and looked at the notice board carefully for a while - she carefully studied the list of merchants according to categories for a long time, and found paper and pen to write down a lot of information; then she nodded, turned around and left.
Yunlai Exchange.
"What, what are your plans?" Although Teacher Yi was not very interested in this, he still asked.
"I'm not particularly business-minded," Lin Sanjiu responded, following the pumpkin road and looking at the stores one by one: "...So I thought of a plan, but I don't know if it will work.
"
Before the teacher could ask what the plan was, she had already stopped in front of a store, opened the door and walked in.
If you look at it suddenly, you will have no idea what this store is. The ceiling, walls and floors are painted black, dotted with smooth geometric blocks of bright pink, which looks strong and modern - of course, it looks like a starry sky amusement park.
The unity of the architectural style is not considered - the hall is empty, with only a cartoonish pink lip logo on the wall, indicating that this is the "lips" restaurant.
"I'm sorry, Miss." Sure enough, we had only taken two steps when a waiter in black and pink apron came out from behind some plant: "... Our store has not officially opened yet. Look,
There are not even tables and chairs set up.”
The trading news said that "lips" is going to open a new branch, and it will be located on Pumpkin Road - I don't know if it's a coincidence, or it only appeared on the news of Yunlai Exchange because it was going to be opened here.
"I know, I just came to take a look." Relying on the effect of [scroogemcduckpower] 1, Lin Sanjiu commanded unceremoniously, "Isn't there a menu? Bring one."
The waitress was stunned for a moment, and then she took out a menu from a pile and handed it to her.
"You have to know that I am a very picky person," Lin Sanjiu pretended to be a rich man, flipping through each page of the menu selectively: "...where do the raw materials for your restaurant come from?
In? If it’s not good, I won’t come to eat.”
The waitress seemed to be shocked by her false "financial power", and she quickly said politely: "Don't worry, our ingredients are all delivered by the best raw material store in Starry Sky Amusement Park -
You must have heard of 'Heben', right? They are our exclusive distributor of lips."
Of course, Lin Sanjiu had no idea what Heben was - she nodded expressionlessly, returned the menu with each dish costing dozens of stamina points, and gave it to the waitress as a gift.
Door.
"Oh, it's so expensive. Who would come to eat it?" Lin Sanjiu took a deep breath as soon as he left the other party's sight, and quickly found the note he had just written down. "He Ben... He Ben... ah
Yes, they are a food supply organization, their address is on Frog Road, and they currently sell eggs, snowflake beef, lettuce and mozzarella cheese."
According to what I learned from the waiter, on this stretch of road, no matter players or shops, the things that can be purchased are the same - the exchange represents the "market", and you can buy only what is on the market;
Even if you bypass the exchange and trade privately, the handling fee will still be forcibly deducted and recorded.
"Of course a restaurant needs more than these items," Lin Sanjiu said to himself, while looking at the small piece of paper and continuing to move forward: "...Is it to simplify the complexity?"
The next store was a souvenir shop, and the next one was a clothing store - she resisted the urge to buy some clothes and change out of her bathrobe, so she walked through each store and asked about them all.
Along the way, Lin Sanjiu finally understood some of the reasons why Kurosawa Ji liked this copy.
Even if it is a copy, when wandering in it, it really makes people forget their real situation for a while - forget all the doomsday, struggle, suicide, survival... Looking at the dazzling array of shops with different styles,
It's like returning to a peaceful and developed human society.
"...I have one last question," Lin Sanjiu smiled at the shopkeeper in front of her, "Is there a bank here?"
The shopkeeper who was pouring her tea shook his head.
...This is a bit disappointing.
After finishing the cup of tea and asking the shop owner for some information, Lin Sanjiu naturally stood up without buying anything and walked outside the shop.
"I find that you are getting a little bit more cheeky now," Teacher Yi's voice sounded embarrassed, "...I was even embarrassed just now."
Lin Sanjiu sighed. "You can't stand this? There are more shameless things to come."
"What are you going to do?"
Lin Sanjiu did not answer directly. Thinking that the information was almost collected now... With a slight smile, she activated [Conscious Mimicry] and whispered: "Scrooge McDuck." (To be completed.)
