The Enemy Came Knocking
"This medicine is outrageous! Are you selling it? Seriously, ten times the price, I'll take as much as you have!"
When Fatty You saw the Potion Old Wang had dispensed, he was so shocked that he started swearing.
What he saw! Instantly restored 30% of his health and mana, with a cooldown of only one second.
This means that as long as there is enough of this medicine, there is no such thing as death.
"Didn't you see the big word 'bound'? This is a mission reward; you can't sell it, you can only use it yourself!" Wang Qianduo said calmly.
If you don't show off and flex your muscles, he'll always think he's easy to bully and will cause trouble from time to time.
If conditions allowed, Old Wang would definitely kick this fat man in front of him away, but conditions don't allow it now.
There are only a handful of big merchants in the game, and the only one without a major guild background is the fat guy in front of me.
To free up their time and energy, Old Wang and his group needed a businessman, and Fatty You was the most suitable candidate.
Although this fat guy can be a bit shameless at times, his reputation and ability to receive goods during transactions are generally reliable.
"What a pity! What a pity! You have no idea, if this Potion were available for trade, you would be rich."
"No need for many, just 30. Those level 30 people stuck on their third job advancement will fight tooth and nail to get this medicine!"
Fatty You also saw the word "bound," although this word usually only appears on quest items, so it was a bit strange for it to appear on Potion.
But he didn't pay too much attention to it, after all, the items in this game were incredibly diverse.
"What you said makes me feel like I missed out on a fortune!"
"More than that! A hundred million might not be enough to stop you. That's the temptation of breaking through level 30! You know what this game is like now," Fatty You.
"What a pity! What a pity! Never mind, let's not talk about it anymore. Since Boss You doesn't have a better Potion, we'll take our leave."
Oh! By the way, I won't take advantage of you for nothing, I'll give you some free information: if you encounter monsters during the Secret Realm event, don't attack them indiscriminately.
Go up and check if the other party is called Secret Realm Beast. If so, be low-key and greet them properly.
That's all for now, I'm off! No need to see me off, Boss You...
Wang Qianduo was quite satisfied with Fatty You's attitude in admitting his mistake this time, so he sent him a message as compensation for his losses.
After all, when you're out in the world, everyone's in it for various reasons, right?
These benefits include money, fame, and beauty, as well as all sorts of desires or needs.
It's okay to be a little greedy, because it's human nature; people die for wealth, and birds die for food!
But "you must admit your mistakes and stand up straight when you're being punished"—if you're caught, you must have the right attitude.
To remain unrepentant will only drag you into an Abyss.
Don't underestimate Wang Qianduo's message; it's absolutely invaluable because it could give you a head start over others on day one.
At the same time, Old Wang once again demonstrated his power to Fatty You. When this information is verified, Fatty You will have to think twice before trying to scheme against Old Wang again!
After Wang Qianduo and his group left with the Potion, Fatty You sat in a chair and pondered for a while before posting an update.
"Shop at You Trading House and receive free insider information about the Secret Realm!"
Old Wang and the others also saw the message, and they couldn't help but sigh, "This guy really is a pure person!"
~~~
"Please wait a moment, everyone!" After Wang Qianduo and his group left Fatty You's place, a person hurriedly ran towards them and called out.
(=_=)
"Are you calling us? The way you're calling me makes me think of someone named Shen Gongbao!"
Everyone turned to look at the person running towards them, and Old Wang squinted and said.
"Haha, fellow Daoist... ah, no, my friend is joking. My name is Wei Hua, my game nickname is Invincible Young Master Hua, I'm Sniper from the Ten Thousand Miles Club. Excuse me..."
"Wait a minute, what was your nickname again?" Old Wang asked, looking at the man with a strange expression.
"Um... calling him 'Invincible Young Master Hua' is a bit unconventional, but friend, you don't need to make that face, do you?" Wei Hua said, looking at him with a puzzled expression.
"Invincible Young Master Hua, Invincible Young Master Hua! And Sniper, Sniper is great..."
After hearing the other person confirm his name, Old Wang realized that this was the same person who had ambushed him when he dealt with the enemies who were tracking him on Demon Rat Star.
This is truly a case of "searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly!"
Wang Qianduo had been worried about not hearing from that person for a while, but unexpectedly, he came to her doorstep.
That sneak attack was arguably the most dangerous time Wang Qianduo had ever been in the wild since he started playing the game. If it weren't for the passive triggering skill of Arcane Shield, he would have been dead on the spot.
It's not a big deal that he died; after all, nobody plays games without dying once.
However, if he had died that time, many subsequent events would not have been triggered, which would have resulted in a significant loss.
Now that the other party has delivered themselves to his doorstep, Wang Qianduo is determined to get his revenge.
"Friend, are you alright?" Wei Hua asked, looking at the dazed Wang Qianduo.
He was the person who had just made a deal with Fatty You before Wang Qianduo and the others arrived.
He noticed every single strange reaction from Fatty You after hearing the man's voice.
After they left Fatty You immediately changed his status update, leading the other party to believe that they had come to sell important information.
That's why he intercepted Wang Qianduo and his group, but little did he know that he was walking right into Old Wang's line of fire!
"It's nothing! I'm perfectly fine. What brings you here?" Wang Qianduo said. After he finished speaking, Lin Qimeng and the others looked at him strangely, because they noticed that Wang Qianduo became unusually excited after seeing this person.
"Old Wang doesn't have any unusual fetishes, does he?" Sister Hua said in the group chat.
"Maybe! He always looks so excited!" Lin Qimeng
"Why do I smell a sour smell?" Sister Hua asked.
"Do you think Old Wang is a 0 or a 1?" Yu Xiaoyu.
"Little Fish, you even know these things!" Night Owl.
"I learned it all from Shin-chan!" Yu Xiaoyu.
"... I'm not taking the blame for this..." -Yu Xiaoxin.
"... Aren't you guys going too far? I'm still in the group chat!" Wang Qianduo.
"Hmph, what do you know? We call this not talking behind people's backs!" Lin Qimeng.
Wang Qianduo:(╯‵□′)╯┴─┴
It means not to speak ill of others behind their backs, but you say it to their faces! Is that what "not speaking ill of others behind their backs" means?
"This man is my enemy. He once ambushed me in the wild. He probably doesn't know this. You guys need to cooperate with me in a bit!" Wang Qianduo.
"So exciting!"
As everyone was whispering among themselves in the group chat, Wei Hua thought for a moment and then said, "Friend, you must have sold some information about the Secret Realm to Fatty You just now, right?"
"I suppose so!" Wang Qianduo said.
"I want to buy the channels through which you obtained this information, that is, how you obtained this information," Wei Hua said directly.
"Buying access to information! So decisive? How can you be sure I'd sell?" Wang Qianduo asked, somewhat surprised.
This person doesn't seem to lack intelligence, so why is he immediately asking to sell distribution channels?
"Our Ten Thousand Miles Club can afford anything! Brother, you can name your price!"
"Of course, if all else fails, I can buy the information you just sold to Fatty You," Wei Hua said.
Because he was unaware of Wang Qianduo and the others' identities, Wei Hua was actually quite polite.
Otherwise, given his Hyena -like nature—always ready to ambush Wang Qianduo at the slightest opportunity—he wouldn't have acted this way if Wang Qianduo and the others didn't have a large guild behind them.
Moreover, his direct mention of the Ten Thousand Miles Guild's name might have been an attempt to intimidate them.
"Oh, I see! I've already sold the information to Fatty You. Why didn't you buy it from him?" Wang Qianduo asked, sounding both naive and a little guilty.
Seeing his expression, Lin Qimeng and the others frantically typed "666" in the group chat, praising his improved acting skills.
"I don't like Fatty You. So tell me if you're going to sell or not?" Wei Hua said, losing some patience. At the same time, Wang Qianduo's repeated show of weakness made him feel a little overconfident.
"Sigh~ We can't afford to offend the Ten Thousand Miles Guild, I..."
I can't sell information twice; that would be untrustworthy.
Here's what I'll do: I'll take you to the channels through which I got my information. If you can gain their approval, I'll sell you those channels.
"Just give me whatever you think is appropriate!" Wang Qianduo said timidly.
Wei Hua observed his expression, his eyes darting around, and then a smirk appeared on his lips as he said, "Alright!"
But what he was thinking was:
"Heh, you'll still want money then? Isn't that my channel? I wonder how important it is, and whether I can get the guild's rewards?"
