Buying Medicine

"Boss You! My brother's here to buy some goods from you!"

When Wang Qianduo arrived at Fatty You's shop, it was as if Wang Xifeng's voice preceded her arrival.

When Fatty You, who was talking to a client, heard his voice, his expression immediately changed.

Then, after apologizing to the customer, she immediately put on a warm smile and went out to greet them, saying as she jogged:

"Oh my! Brother Wang, I've missed you so much!"

Why didn't you let your brother know you were coming? I could have come out to greet you!

Seeing that Fatty You was coming to greet him warmly, Old Wang also went to meet him.

Then the two put on a show for everyone, a rather entertaining reunion of two seemingly fraternal brothers.

However, Old Wang's cultivation level is no match for Fatty You's; his performance is nowhere near as vivid or realistic.

"Brother, you're too kind. How was the Projection Device last time?" Wang Qianduo said after the two gave each other a very fake hug.

Fatty You: "..."

He knew that what was coming would eventually come, but since he had decided to kick Wang Qianduo out and play by himself, he had long been prepared for failure.

"Of course it's very useful, brother. What brings you here this time?" Fatty You tried to change the subject, hoping to move on from this matter quickly.

"Oh! Right, I was just thinking about catching up with Brother You. The event is about to start, so I came to ask Brother You if he has any Mecha consumables or anything like that!"

Wang Qianduo said with a "sudden realization," as if the previous incident had truly been put on hold.

But when Fatty You heard this, his expression changed subtly again. He knew that if he were to continue cooperating with Fatty You in the future, this bleeding was unavoidable.

"Of course I have the stuff. If others don't have it, I definitely will. Come with me, brother, let's go inside and sit down to talk."

Fatty You continued speaking with a smile, then led Wang Qianduo and his group into the shop and sat down.

At this moment, everyone else in the shop who was buying things turned to look at Old Wang and his group.

Given Fatty You's current status, there aren't many people he can summon at a moment's notice and have to run out to greet him.

It's important to understand that while Fatty You is a businessman, welcoming guests is normal practice for him.

But greeting someone and going out to greet someone have different meanings, and walking to greet someone and running to greet someone are also different.

When you enter the store, he welcomes you and exchanges a few polite words with you; this is the basic courtesy of a great businessman.

Moreover, in this game, those who come to his shop to buy things are basically purchasing agents from large guilds or Mercenary Corps, and they are mostly negotiating large deals.

In fact, the case of Wang Qianduo asking him to buy Secret Manual last time was not within his scope of service.

But when facing members of those major guilds, Fatty You didn't even offer to come out and greet them, let alone jog over.

But this person accomplished it with just a word, which made everyone very curious about his identity.

"Isn't that the Thousand King?"

"The Thousand King? The one who held his first auction?"

"No wonder!"

Nowadays, most Player wouldn't recognize Old Wang, but those at these tournaments still vividly remember the person who taught them how to play the game.

He showed them that Player could also interact with NPCs, and that NPCs could explore to such a depth.

"Brother, this is the Special Health-Recovery Item we're currently promoting. It's the most cost-effective healing item available right now. Do you like it?"

After everyone sat down, Fatty You took out a stone that emitted a fluorescent glow and said...

Halo - Fluorescent Energy Stone

Normal

+100HP

Cooldown time: 30 seconds

Note: One of the new products developed by Halo Corporation using Fluorescent Stone.

This Potion is a consumable item that Player can obtain by completing Daily Tasks at the quest center; currently, this is the only way to obtain it.

On the Halo Corporation's side, none of the Player, including Wang Qianduo, had a way to purchase the game.

It's likely that the game hasn't been released to that point yet, or like this event, it requires certain triggering conditions.

"Old You, you're not being sincere! We came all this way to buy things from you, and this is how you try to fool us?"

After glancing at the Potion Old You handed him, Wang Qianduo remained expressionless and silent, while Lin Qimeng beside him spoke casually.

The moment Old Wang saw the Potion, he knew it was time for the good cop to step down and for the bad cop to take the stage.

He shouldn't have had even the slightest hope for this businessman's shamelessness. Value for money? Ha!

"What are you saying? I, You Suowei, have always been known for my honest business practices. How could I lack sincerity?" Fatty You said with a smile to Lin Qimeng.

His attitude towards Lin Qimeng and Wang Qianduo was completely different, even though he knew that the woman was probably in charge of the other team.

But when facing her, he dared not leave the slightest flaw.

"Honesty?! Goodbye!"

Lin Qimeng gave a disdainful smile, then got up to leave, and Wang Qianduo and the others behind her immediately followed.

"Calm down! Calm down! Hey, please sit down. If you don't like our value-for-money items, we have other things here, don't we?" Fatty You immediately persuaded Lin Qimeng.

At this stage, he has to ask Wang Qianduo for help. After Wang Qianduo helped him organize an auction last time, his sales immediately increased by 30%.

He doesn't need many auctions like this; if he holds one a month, he'll become the top merchant in the game in less than three months.

If we let Wang Qianduo and the others leave like this today, will we still be able to cooperate in the future? We'll be lucky if they don't cause us trouble.

Without any other means, Wang Qianduo only needs to lend that thing to his competitor, and then let him team up with some people to mess with him a few times. That would be enough to give him a hard time.

This is the power of a monopoly; Wang Qianduo now essentially monopolizes a powerful weapon that can easily determine their fate.

"Anything else?" Lin Qimeng

Yes, yes, yes!

"Abandoning the price-performance ratio?"

"I'm not doing it! I'm not doing it! It was my oversight, and you guys aren't the type to consider cost-effectiveness! This is the best medicine I have, please take a look!" Fatty You.

Halo - Fluorescent Energy Stone Energy Bar

Rare

Effect

+600HP

+100MP

Restores 10% of maximum HP within 20 seconds after use.

Cooldown time: 30 seconds

Note: This is a brand new flagship product developed by Halo Corporation using Fluorescent Stone.

Fatty You is really going all out. The way he's bringing this out is basically saying, "Since we're going to bleed anyway, might as well just give us a quick and painless payment!"

"These are the best recovery items I have. I bought them for 10 Gold Crystal each, but you can give me 12 Gold Crystal each, and I'll charge a small running fee!"

However, you can only take a maximum of 10; I really have a limited quantity of these!

After saying that, Fatty You felt like his heart was breaking. He could only break even with 12 Gold Crystal. Considering the price increase of consumables after the system announcement, he had lost a fortune.

I dare not say much else, but you'll definitely lose money on 20 Gold Crystal.

"Ten? Look at all these people, wouldn't it be a bit difficult to divide them among ten?" Lin Qimeng said with a light laugh, arms crossed.

Fatty You: "How many do you want?"

"100!"

"Impossible, at most fifty... ten!"

"Deal! Thank you, Boss You!"

Fatty You: "..."

Damn it, that was too hasty!

Fatty You actually underperformed this time, mainly because last time he tried to kick Wang Qianduo aside and borrow the projector himself, the NPC surnamed Ma slapped him right in front of Wang Qianduo, which affected his mentality.

He never dreamed that an NPC could be this cunning.

At the same time, Wang Qianduo's deep cultivation among NPCs also impressed him.

What kind of status would Alliance need to have in this game for NPCs to fawn over them?

He was a little worried because Wang Qianduo hadn't contacted him since the last incident.

So when Wang Qianduo suddenly came to his door today, he was a little flustered, which allowed this despicable woman to take advantage of his vulnerability.

However, words spoken are like water spilled; they cannot be taken back. He could only swallow the bitter pill.

However, this isn't without its advantages. At least we can still cooperate with Wang Qianduo, and for the time being, we don't have to worry about him defecting to the enemy's side.

"Thinking about it this way, the loss of less than 300,000 is actually quite acceptable," Fatty You could only think in a very self-deceptive way.

"Boss You really doesn't have a better Potion? Don't worry, we'll pay whatever price you ask for. Old Wang, I'm not short of money..."

After everyone accepted the Potion from Fatty You, Wang Qianduo spoke again.

"Oh my god! You might as well just kill me with one sword!"

I know I was dishonest last time, but this medicine is currently recognized as the best in the game.

"Or you could bring out something better, and I'll pay ten times the market price..."

"Portable Comprehensive Mecha Repair Energy Bar (Perfect)"

Fatty You could finish speaking, Wang Qianduo sent him a link to a Potion, and then he slowly uttered a single word:

"Grass!"
