Why the bug I wrote became a core gameplay mechanic?!-Chapter 679 - 662: Closed-Door Sprint

"Instructor Brother, what kind of dragon is this? It’s so powerful!" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Instructor Brother, you gave me too many elixir pills last time. I didn’t finish them all. I put them in the storage ring, a few slots in the back. You can take them back."

"Instructor Brother, I found a beautiful sea of flowers outside. I’ll take you to see it."

With call after call of "Instructor Brother," Instructor Ding gradually got lost.

Just like how many people complain that Monk Tang is so clueless, how could he not see through Red Boy’s clumsy trap hanging from the tree?

But once he encounters a pretty girl calling him "Monkey Brother," he immediately forgets all about the trap.

Like, I know it’s strange for her to be hanging from a tree, but she’s calling me Monkey Brother, come on!

Instructor Ding’s situation was now pretty much the same; he wanted to give her the best of everything.

Of course, having Only Eating Cilantro around is also beneficial for Instructor Ding. Not only does it mean the storage ring can hold more stuff, eliminating any worries about backpack space, but it also greatly reduces internal toxicity.

After the quantity of Nine Dragon Elixir pills increased, although half the cultivation went to Only Eating Cilantro, Instructor Ding’s progress was still quite good.

Not to mention, Instructor Ding was very happy to see this kind of shared cultivation.

Watching Only Eating Cilantro progress quickly from Foundation Establishment to Core Formation, Instructor Ding was pleased.

"No worries. These Foundation Establishment Pills and Strengthening Pills aren’t worth much. I don’t need them. If you have extras, just take them to the auction house and sell them.

"And those materials and spirit stones I gave you, when you have time, you can visit the auction house. If you need anything, just go ahead and buy it."

Instructor Ding certainly didn’t mind these trivial amounts.

Another two days passed.

"Instructor Brother, I sold all those Foundation Establishment Pills and Strengthening Pills and made over 1000 low-grade spirit stones!

"Instructor Brother, I saw a cheap batch of Night Comet Dragon materials earlier. I bought them all and sold them at a high price yesterday, making over 780 middle-grade spirit stones!

"Praise me!"

Instructor Ding was shocked: "Huh? You made over 780 middle-grade spirit stones?

"Are you possessed by the stock god?

"Have you played this kind of game before? You have the potential of a Great Goblin!"

For Instructor Ding, 780 middle-grade spirit stones weren’t much, just equivalent to 780 bucks.

The game’s prices were relatively stable, but since you could make money in the game, this amount wasn’t astronomical.

But purely making this much from the auction house was impressive!

Even though it’s theoretically just simple buying low and selling high, actually doing it required constant attention to auction house prices, understanding the market fluctuations of various rare materials, and adjusting those materials’ market expectations based on the current server’s demand.

Many Great Goblins in similar games thrived on this business.

They didn’t level up, just frequented the auction house, buying low and selling high, hoarding rare materials, potentially amassing millions or billions of game coins.

In "Reverse Heaven," this gameplay was also supported, but because of the stable prices, the market fluctuations weren’t as significant, making it harder to make money as a Great Goblin.

That Only Eating Cilantro made 780 middle-grade spirit stones in one go was quite impressive.

Although she had some spirit stones from Instructor Ding as capital, her business acumen was rare and valuable.

"Alright, I’ll put some unused materials in your storage ring too. See anything worth buying, just sell them directly.

"As for the spirit stones in the storage ring, spend them as needed, no need to save."

Instructor Ding had lots of random materials.

Every time players entered the Barbaric World, they couldn’t just gather the expensive materials. They harvested whatever they saw, so they ended up with all kinds of materials.

As a dealer of Nine Dragon Elixir, when Instructor Ding bought from the Natural Immortals, there were often additional materials as well.

Since he bought in large quantities and all kinds of elixir pills, he couldn’t just purchase a single type of Nine Dragon Elixir. The purchases came in bulk packages.

But since players had varied situations, he couldn’t sell them bundled. Some only needed one or two types of Nine Dragon Elixir.

For example, Elixir Pills for the Sword Spine Dragon weren’t easy to sell because there weren’t many players practicing swordsmanship, so they clearly didn’t sell as well as others that enhanced basic attributes.

There wasn’t much he could do about it. Instructor Ding and other dealers could only raise the prices of popular elixir pills and offer huge discounts on unsellable ones, trying to ensure slight profits through high sales volume.

These elixir pills piled up like mountains, and many were stored in Instructor Ding’s private warehouse as well as other merchants’.

Instructor Ding was quite troubled by this; the warehouse slots were quickly running out!

He stored some in his private cave mansion and some in the shared cave mansion, but it still wasn’t enough.

Selling them was a hassle.

Although the auction house had automatic price comparison and bulk listing functions, listing them one by one was still a bother.

Plus, the market value of these items fluctuated greatly. Instructor Ding worried that flooding the market might saturate it, and many items wouldn’t sell, wasting the auction house’s storage fees.

So he kept them stacked up.

Since Only Eating Cilantro enjoyed browsing the auction house, he decided to give her some materials to practice with. A loss or a profit didn’t matter.
