Global Game: Crazy Mobile App-Chapter 55 - 53: Old Bear Squeezed Dry
Why do you say that?
Because it can build a brand and reputation!
Even if it doesn’t generate profit, such a fine piece of equipment sold by Old Bear can earn him respect from the big shots behind the scenes.
Old Bear remained calm on the surface: "Little brother, name your price!"
Hang Yu thought for a moment and said, "Eight million!"
"Ah, looking at your age, you go online a lot, don’t you?"
Old Bear almost choked on the quoted price, but he knew the tricks of doing business well, so he was mentally prepared, "Then you should also know that a Level 1 Light White weapon can be hyped up to a few million at most, and as people’s level increases, the demand will definitely decrease. Your equipment is indeed good, but it’s still slightly below a Level 1 White Equipment."
Hang Yu confidently said, "That’s why I quoted eight million!"
"This price is too high!" Old Bear’s mind was running fast, "Right now, not many people can use Level 3 equipment. Those wealthy ones would rather spend eight million on a weapon they can’t use than spend a few million more on a Level 1 white weapon that’s usable right away. Don’t you think I’m right?"
Hang Yu had guessed he would say that.
However, this spear indeed couldn’t fetch eight million.
Hang Yu set a high price just to gain the upper hand.
"Then what price do you think is suitable?"
"Three million!"
"You sold a pair of shorts for a million, and you’re saying this spear is only worth three pairs of shorts?" Hang Yu turned away, "Then I won’t sell it!" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
"Come on, little brother." Old Bear hurriedly stopped Hang Yu, "That was a special case with Young Master Cong before. A million is nothing to him, so it’s not comparable."
Hang Yu glared at him, "Six million!"
"Too high, there aren’t many people who can use this spear right now. If I take it at this price, I might end up stuck with it."
"How about I offer four million? This price is really high!" Old Bear added, "I can tell you’re not an ordinary person, so I’m giving you a sincere price. Let’s be friends and work together more in the future."
"Still not enough! Five million!"
"Four and a half million!" Old Bear put on a helpless and frustrated look, "This is really the highest price, it’s all I can offer. If you’re still not satisfied, you’ll have to look elsewhere!"
Hang Yu found it amusing.
Old Bear seemed genuinely ready to give up.
But this guy was clearly just retreating to advance.
Hang Yu believed that if he insisted on five million, Old Bear would eventually grit his teeth and buy it. After all, even without profit, this equipment had the value of being resold for reputation.
Forget it.
It’s just an appetizer.
No need to haggle over tens of thousands.
Hang Yu agreed to a four and a half million deal.
A flash of joy appeared in Old Bear’s eyes. He knew this price, though not low, still left room for profit. Today was incredibly lucky.
Who would’ve thought.
Hang Yu spoke again.
"I have a few more pieces of equipment to sell?"
"More equipment to sell?" Old Bear immediately grew interested, "Let me see them, as long as the quality is good and the price is right, I’ll take them all!"
Hang Yu didn’t waste words.
Sent the information of seven gray pieces of equipment.
All sent through the Spirit Realm phone!
Old Bear thought Hang Yu might have one or two low-level gray pieces, but when he saw the information on seven pieces of equipment, he was almost scared out of his wits.
What the hell!
What’s going on?
Am I seeing things?
Am I dreaming?
Is this all... real?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven... seven pieces of Bright Gray Equipment?
All Level 3!
Attributes are exceptionally excellent!
Old Bear actually understood very well that quite a few people had reached Level 2 at this stage. It was foreseeable that in the near future, more and more people would reach Level 3. Level 3 top-grade gray equipment were all treasures!
The saying goes, scarcity makes things dear.
Each piece could sell for a good price!
Of course, the threshold for Level 3 equipment is indeed quite high. Even if someone reaches Level 3, buying such equipment carries a risk because if they accidentally die and drop a level, they can’t use the equipment even if it doesn’t explode.
Compared to that, Level 1 White Equipment has no such concern.
But Old Bear also understood that Gray Equipment had an advantage that current White Equipment couldn’t match, which was the issue of the Spirit Realm Tax.
Hang Yu’s Level 3 Bright Gray Equipment, in terms of overall quality, wouldn’t lose to Level 1 White Equipment, and because of the quantity, relying on the people in the camp alone couldn’t fully consume it.
Old Bear’s clients were mainly big bosses in Shanghai with money to spare.
If there were seven or eight pieces of White Equipment in hand, could they be sold off easily?
The Spirit Realm Tax for bringing White Equipment into the real world was White Crystal!
How expensive and rare is White Crystal? Hard to even collect!
Bright Gray Equipment requires Gray Crystal, and the Spirit Realm Tax is far lower than low-level White Equipment. If these few pieces of Bright Gray Equipment could be brought into the real world, it’s believed that a few Shanghai big bosses would buy them without hesitation.
For those individuals.
This kind of money is nothing.
Old Bear quickly calmed his mind.
He looked deeply at Hang Yu, this young man was too unpredictable; how on earth did he manage to get so much equipment?
Could he be hiding some power behind him?
But if that were the case, these valuable pieces of equipment should be kept for their own use! No matter, the thing to consider now is how to secure the equipment!
If he could obtain this batch of equipment.
Old Bear’s name would immediately become renowned among the merchants of the Spirit Realm!
Of course, it would also imply substantial profit, whether for long-term development or short-term gain, they were a great opportunity that Old Bear couldn’t afford to miss!
Strategy!
It’s all strategy!
Old Bear now regretted it very much.
The price he quoted for that long spear was too high!
If it were just for the spear, 4.5 million would be completely acceptable. However, with that item as a price benchmark beforehand, it immediately put Old Bear in a somewhat awkward position.
"Young brother should know, the most valuable parts of equipment are weapons and armor, your equipment is mostly distributed in other areas, so I can offer 15 million to buy them."
million?
Do you take me for someone who’s never been to elementary school?
Can’t solve basic arithmetic problems?
I’m also someone who has received nine years of compulsory education, okay!
Hang Yu’s face turned black upon hearing the price, and he was about to leave!
"Hey, hey, don’t, don’t go, Old Bear was just joking." Old Bear hurriedly stopped Hang Yu, "20 million, I can go up to 20 million, this price isn’t low, right!"
million?
Less than 3 million per piece?
Hang Yu stopped his steps and looked at him: "You should know that this price lacks sincerity. It’s not like I can’t find suitable buyers!"
Hang Yu could sell this batch of equipment to Old Zhao.
With Old Zhao’s financial strength, he should be able to handle this batch of equipment.
The main reason Hang Yu didn’t choose to go to Zhao Ming but came to Xiong Wanjun was that Old Zhao was not purely a businessman; he had already started forming factions and had a tendency to establish a power.
Hang Yu hoped to establish a more neutral supply channel apart from Old Zhao.
To avoid getting entangled in unnecessary disputes too early in the future.
The ideal price in Hang Yu’s mind was 30 million,
Old Bear’s quote was a whole 10 million less than the ideal price.
Although Hang Yu could be very generous at times, and wouldn’t particularly fuss over small gains or losses, this didn’t mean he was someone who would suffer losses.
At such a price.
No deal under any circumstances!
Current asset prices in the Spirit Realm have been speculated to how high?
Actually, even if Old Bear bought them for 30 million, using his channels and connections, he would still be able to make a bit of profit.
Hang Yu, in ensuring sufficient profits for himself, didn’t mind letting his collaborators earn a little too; after all, when he was having a feast, he had to leave some soup for others to drink.
But if you think I’m a fool?
Sorry, this deal simply can’t be done!
Old Bear rubbed his hands in difficulty, seeing Hang Yu’s stance.
But he had just acquired a small batch of equipment and Crystal Stones that he hadn’t sold for a return yet, now he couldn’t offer more than 20 million.
This young man isn’t a naïve rookie.
He has no worries about selling this batch of equipment.
If he can’t give him a satisfactory price, why would the other party sell?
"I can only come up with another 20 million now." Old Bear was really at his wits’ end, he hardly had any ammunition, "but I can add a White Crystal Stone."
The price of Spirit Realm Crystal Stones has been fluctuating all along.
Gray Crystal Stones usually cost around 300,000.
White Crystal Stones are more than ten times that, roughly three to four million.
Old Bear currently had more than twenty Gray Crystal Stones and two White Crystal Stones, but it was impossible for him to offer all his Crystal Stones since he planned to return to Shanghai and resell these pieces of equipment.
He had to reserve some for the Spirit Realm Tax.
million in cash, plus a White Crystal Stone.
Even then, the total price would be 23 or 24 million.
For an ordinary person, this wealth is enough for a lifetime.
Hang Yu also saw Old Bear was struggling, he thought for a moment, then took out the top-grade weapon "Dazzling Giant Wooden Hammer" and "Fine Ironwood Round Shield."
"Your price is only enough for the remaining five pieces of equipment."
That giant wooden hammer with incredibly high attack power was one of the most eye-catching top-grade items among this equipment, and the other Bright Gray Quality shield Hang Yu set aside was also very good!
Old Bear was heartbroken.
But he had no choice.
With the little chips he had.
He had essentially been squeezed dry.
Old Bear thought for two seconds, not haggling: "Deal! Let’s be friends! In the future, if there are good things, make sure to find me!"
