Three hours later, the Frost Ghost army regrouped and attacked the building again. Some players' dormitories were breached, but overall, the players still held a clear advantage.

Xu Lang is too powerful. The domino effect caused the round to end early, giving players more time to clear the buildings.

The Frost Ghost King's action logic has been figured out by everyone.

They attacked the building at 6 o'clock, launched a second attack at 9 o'clock, and then immediately retreated.

The key moments for sweeping the buildings are mainly during the gaps in the Frost Ghost King's attacks, the time he is away, and the period after the Polar Night.

This time, however, in addition to going door-to-door, everyone was also paying attention to something else.

That is the change in the price of winter clothing.

"Dry firewood used to cost 5 Copper Coin at the shop, but now it costs 7 Copper Coin, just because it can start a fire..."

There's never too little cold-weather gear.

There are still five days of gameplay left, the market is still huge.

Money can be earned back, but you only have one life.

Many players who thought they had gathered enough winter supplies and had already left the market have re-entered the market, buying some or more items.

The prices of winter clothing are being driven up little by little!

As the Polar Night was about to begin, Wang Ao returned to his dormitory.

Wang Ao's family was well-off, with a Tier 3 Gate and two Tier 2 Turret.

If I dressed up a bit more attractively, I should be able to attract a female tenant.

But he had little interest in women; his only concern was survival.

"Brother Wang, what's wrong with you? You seem distracted," the tenant who stayed at home asked when he saw Wang Ao return.

"Have you been paying attention to the market?" Wang Ao asked, staring intently at the tenant.

"You mean winter supplies?" The tenant realized and replied happily, "The prices have indeed gone up. I sold some and made a small profit."

On the first day, Wang Ao had his tenants buy winter supplies.

He also bought some himself and sold them before setting off, making a small profit as well.

But the problem lies in the small profit... it's just a small profit!

"Keep an eye on the gate. I'm a little tired; I'm going to take a nap."

The tenant gave Wang Ao a strange look, then shook his head indifferently.

Anyway, with Xu Lang leading the way, the Polar Night isn't dangerous, so I can sleep whenever I want.

Wang Ao lay in bed, tossing and turning.

8 Copper Coin, 9 Copper Coin, 10 Copper Coin...

Overnight, the price of firewood doubled!

Wang Ao ignored everything else and only looked at the price of firewood.

Finally, after enduring hours of torment, he couldn't take it anymore and, with the Copper Coin he had earned from buying and selling winter supplies along with his initial investment, he re-entered the market!

What if things get colder and colder in the future?

Is it alright to stock up on extra winter supplies?

Well, as a result, he accidentally went all in, leaving only a small amount of money to supply the attack facilities.

The next morning, Wang Ao discovered that the initial temperature was minus ten degrees Celsius, and he felt certain.

Sure enough, the temperature continues to drop!

Upon opening the Trading Network, I found that the price of firewood had soared to 14 Copper Coin.

Sizzle!

What's a mere 14 Copper Coin?!

The price of firewood should be five, ten, or even twenty times higher!

"Brother Wang, what's wrong? You didn't sleep last night, did you?" The tenant was startled when he saw that Wang Ao's eyes were bloodshot.

Wang Ao's eyes gleamed with a kind of fanaticism as he shook his head and said, "I'm going out. You keep an eye on the house."

At this moment, his heart was filled with faith in the availability of winter supplies!

What are you going out for?

"Make money to buy winter supplies!"

The tenant was stunned for a moment, then felt a deep sense of gratitude.

Brother Wang is truly amazing; he has given so much for everyone's well-being.

However, what he didn't know was that some people buy houses out of necessity, while others buy houses for speculation, Wang Ao belonged to the latter.

And there are many players like Wang Ao!

Some people even sold their weapons at low prices last night to buy winter supplies, and then resold them for a profit!

Everyone is making money.

So who's losing money?

Someone can still lose money in a bull market? What kind of idiot would that be?!

[33 Zhang Dahai: Lang Ge Lang Ge, something's not right today. People have already started collecting winter supplies. Should I try a different approach to clearing the buildings next time?]

[200 Xu Lang: The trend is definitely a bit off. A wolf pelt is now worth a thousand Copper Coin. Let's wait and see. Later, everyone will be collecting winter supplies. If there are too many winter supplies, the bubble will burst.]

[33 Zhang Dahai: Understood!]

Xu Lang, with his immense wealth and keen insight, was naturally able to maintain a stable mindset.

Cao Yaxuan and the other women delivered the supplies Zhang Dahai had traded to the study, and then came to Xu Lang.

"Xu Lang, aren't you Fusion these twenty Blood Crystals yet? Why don't you try Fusion?" Cao Yaxuan asked, staring at the Blood Crystals on the coffee table.

"No need, we're not in a rush to increase our combat strength right now." Xu Lang repeated, then added, "Now we can sell some wolf pelts."

After he finished speaking, he put a wolf skin on the shelf.

"The whale has started shipping!" Zhou Daha had been watching the Trading Network closely. When he saw someone listing wolf pelts, and the target was Xu Lang, he immediately perked up.

After waiting for a long time, he still didn't see Xu Lang do anything else.

"Perhaps a small position is being taken to avoid missing out!"

Zhou Daha had his men buy the wolf pelt, then listed another wolf pelt for 1,300 yuan, and had another man buy it. At the same time, he spread this market news in the Chat Room.

Immediately afterwards, he listed a wolf pelt for 1,500 yuan, which was bought by another player in about ten seconds.

OK!

The wolf pelt is priced at 1500; it won't go down that price!

Cool!

"If you want to raid buildings in the freezing cold, wolf pelts are essential; they're the real currency!" Zhou Daha smoothed his hair and confidently grinned at his subordinates, "From now on, take all the wolf pelts on the Trading Network, as many as you can get!"

There are currently three main types of cold-weather supplies on the market: wood, firewood, and wolf pelts.

Timber burns very easily, dry firewood burns longer, and wolf pelts are the finest.

Although Zhou Daha and Wang Ao valued different products, they were essentially doing the same thing: driving up the prices of winter clothing.

"Great deal!" Xu Lang raised an eyebrow, delighted, when he saw the price of the wolf pelt had risen to 1,500.

He didn't care at all about the five hundred Copper Coin he lost.

It's just a drop in the ocean.

Next, Xu Lang began cultivating, and every now and then he would sell a wolf pelt.

The price of wolf pelts climbed to two thousand, then encountered resistance.

Zhou Daha isn't stupid; he's genuinely trying to control the market.

After a night of training, Xu Lang's mental attributes increased a little more.

At seven o'clock in the morning, Xu Lang and his four friends attended the Radio Station gathering on time, learning from the experience of veteran players.

Surprisingly, the Black Merchant Kabi actually went to the Heavy Armored Fanatic ' Dormitory Building.

This allowed the Heavy Armored Fanatic to make a fortune, exchanging Chili for a blueprint for an eighth-level turret, worth at least two million Copper Coin.

Xu Lang was filled with envy and desperately hoped that the Black Merchant Kabi would appear in the Mad King Dormitory Building.

After all, the Chili that the Heavy Armored Fanatic brought out was only level six, while he was confident in upgrading the Ghost Chili to a higher level.

It's worth mentioning that Black Merchant have an ironclad rule: they cannot harm players in Survival Game, and if attacked, they can only run away. They are a neutral and somewhat benevolent special entity, which Rainy Night Swordsman and others both love and hate.

It's a shame that the Black Merchant sell such good stuff; I don't have the money to buy it!

Love is like Black Merchant selling something so good that you just have the money to buy it!
