If it was just Executive Order No. 7, which was used to create a guild, it might not be worth much. After all, a first-level guild only required 20 gold coins, and after it was built, it could only accommodate 1,000 people. There was no point in rushing to make a name for yourself and recruit people from all over the world.
But it's different on the 17th. This thing can double the upper limit of the guild membership to 2,000 people, which can attract many more players.
So, when they learned that there was an auction of guild upgrade orders in Shadowglen, many guilds sent representatives, and even the player guild of the evil camp was paying attention to this matter.
In Dawn, you can't trade across factions, but that doesn't mean things can't circulate between the two sides. There will be a black market after the system is updated next Monday. In addition, items can be dropped by killing people, and items can be picked up when dropped on the ground. Players have plenty of ways to deal with this.
"Here he comes, Luke is here, Luke is here to sell equipment."
"I don't know what good equipment there will be today, but I bought 2 gold coins on the trading platform at once."
"Poor bastard, you have the nerve to show off 2 gold coins. I received 9 gold coins in one order."
"Haha, there was an idiot who bought my order. I bought the gold coins at a rate of 800 in the morning and put it up at 1,000 in the evening. Someone actually bought it. I made more than 2,000 dollar by reselling it."
…
As night fell, Luke set up the stall. Ordinary bronze equipment cost 20 silver coins, and top-quality equipment cost 50 silver coins. Top-quality weapons were a little more expensive. As soon as the fourteen or fifteen pieces were put on the market, they were snapped up by the players who had been waiting for a long time.
"Black iron hammer, usable by healing priests, knights, and shamans; guild upgrade order, I won't explain this, both items are auctioned together, starting at 1 gold coin, everyone, get started. If you use real money to trade, the average price of the trading platform plus 20% will be directly deposited into your account." Luke did not have much talent as an auctioneer, but now it was a complete seller's market, so there was no need to worry about no one buying.
The players looked at each other, as if observing how much money their potential opponents could offer.
At present, MT equipment is the most valuable, followed by treatment, and then the main output profession. A hammer with increased treatment effect is indeed exciting.
Of course, one piece of Black Iron equipment is not enough to attract the attention of a big guild. A guild similar to an elite Spider's Nest can organize more than a dozen waves of refreshes every day, and each time there will be at least one or two pieces of Black Iron. It's just that the guild's demand is greater, so it's not possible to sell them.
"Five gold coins," someone started bidding.
The price increased fivefold in an instant. It doesn't mean that this person is very rich. The starting price is 1 gold coin, and everyone knows that it is a joke.
"10 gold," since someone has already started bidding, no matter whether you can win the bid in the end, you have to follow suit to make an offer to feel at ease. Moreover, if you fail to win the bid, you have to make the person who wins the bid spend more money to feel at ease.
It has to be said that the dark side of human nature helped Luke a lot.
After that, people continued to bid, and the price kept rising, soon reaching 30 gold. Only small guilds could continue to bid.
The first upgraded guild can easily become the first bird to be besieged. If its strength is too weak, the loss will outweigh the gain. Only guilds that can rank among the top 100 in the country can make good use of the title of the first second-level guild.
"30 gold. Using materials to upgrade the guild will only cost more than 20 gold. Take it easy, everyone." To upgrade the guild, what is needed is ore, wood, and gems. It will naturally be cheaper to mobilize guild members to mine. Even if you buy them from the market, the cost is indeed limited. Of course, it is almost impossible to get it for 20 gold.
"Get lost, we'll take it easy and let you win. 40 gold, our Iron-Blooded Brotherhood will get it today," a player shouted.
"What a bullshit Iron-Blooded Brotherhood, City of Glory thinks everyone else is a fool. The evil camp's hands are so long, be careful or they might destroy you." The Iron-Blooded Brotherhood guild sounds like a close relative of the Crimson Banner, but in fact, it is an undercover agent arranged in the Light Camp by the City of Glory, the biggest rival of the Crimson Banner and the most powerful guild in the evil camp.
It's a pity that online games are just online games after all, and their organizational structure will never be perfect. This is something that everyone has long known.
"Scarlet Banner offers 80 gold. If you, Scarlet Brotherhood, dare to bid again today, we guarantee that no one in your guild will be able to leave the safe zone," a night elf druid pointed at the nose of the person who had just made the bid, and the threat was evident in his words.
Luke frowned but said nothing. Although the people from the Bloody Battle Flag were a bit arrogant, they were still honest. They doubled the amount in an instant, and this amount exceeded his psychological price.
Selling a virtual item for nearly 100,000 dollar is already a very rare income.
Sure enough, after Bloody Banner made the bid, all other guilds stopped moving.
This guild is ranked third in the country, but its strength is ridiculous. It can go head-to-head with the number one-ranked City of Glory for many years, and it can also beat the number two-ranked We-R-Nobles. There are really not many people who dare to mess with them.
Luke suddenly realized that this kind of manual auction is not without disadvantages. If a giant like Bloody Battle Flag bids, it will be basically difficult to sell it at an outrageous price. However, this problem is not a problem. After the system is updated next week, a trading house will appear and all players online in the system can participate in the auction.
After deducting the portion given to Tel'abyssian, Luke still had 20 gold coins left, plus 80,000 real coins transferred from Bloody Battle Flag.
Bloody Banner couldn't take out eighty gold coins, so it could only trade with real currency. The current gold price was fluctuating around eight hundred, plus Luke agreed that there would be a twenty percent premium for trading with real currency, so it was just enough to make up eighty thousand dollar.
Luke thought about it and kept all 20 gold coins instead of selling them on the trading platform.
The system will be updated next Monday and an online trading house will be available. By then, some scarce items will surely be sold as trash by ignorant players. With his confidence in the game's future for the next two to three years, Luke can easily pick up bargains.
Luke planned to pay the 60,000 dollar penalty tomorrow. If you think about it, Luke really has no money to buy a helmet, and he will not be able to make use of his three years of gaming experience before his rebirth to make his first pot of gold. The Moonblade Guild was doing him a favor, and if everyone was really happy to cooperate, Luke would not mind giving them a hand.
It's a pity that it has come to this. We can only say that people with different ideas cannot work together. Luke took the initiative to terminate the contract and paid double the penalty for the helmet, which was 60,000 dollar.
This seemingly impossible task has now been exceeded.
After deducting the 60,000, Luke still had more than 30,000 dollar left, which was money that he needed urgently.
With the popularization of intelligence, society's demand for grassroots talents is decreasing. I don't know when and how the government began to dilute the meaning of compulsory education, and people have to spend a lot of money to enjoy "sustainable" education.
There are two middle schools near the slum Lu Lijia. One is a compulsory education school that only requires a small amount of money to enter, but its admission rate has been zero for more than a decade. The other one is not much better, but at least a few students can enter the university town every year. Gabrielle attends this school. The annual tuition is 10,000 dollar, which takes up most of the social welfare funds of the brother and sister.
Now that the siblings have moved away, they naturally won't go to school in the slums anymore.
The Affiliated No. 1 Middle School that Luke liked was the best middle school in the city, and naturally the price was also the most expensive.
I checked online and found that the tuition for the second half of the school year alone was 30,000 dollar, and there were various other fees. All in all, it would cost 100,000 dollar per year. It was a typical aristocratic school. Not to mention the slums, even people from ordinary areas might not be able to afford it.
In fact, there are several high schools around the university town, such as No. 2 High School, No. 3 High School, and No. 7 High School, which are much cheaper, especially No. 7 High School, which is the first choice for residents in civilian areas. However, a certain sister-control man wants to give his sister the best, so these second-rate schools are naturally not in his eyes.
I have to go through the transfer procedures next Monday, so I have to withdraw the 30,000 dollar first.
Recently, Luke also planned to take his sister to a big hospital for a comprehensive check-up.
As a result, the 100,000 dollar that Luke had worked hard for several days was really gone after all this trouble.
Still short of money!
