The trading period soon passed, and it was midnight again.
Yang Yi had sold everything he planned to sell. He expected to take in over 240,000 Conch Coins, bringing his account balance to over 1.28 million. (Physical trades incurred transaction fees, with each party paying their own by default.)

Yang Yi couldn't make sense of it.
