Chapter 111: Determined
After receiving the common points, Fang Linyan was also quite a bit complacent. When looking at the No. 3’s bid at this time, “1750 crystal coin/17500 common points”, he wasn’t so worried now.
Because he not only had a huge amount of money, but he could also enjoy the privileges of the VIP! Even if it was bidding, he could enjoy a 25% discount. Simply put, to exceed the price of 17500 common points, he only needed to pay 18000*75%=13500 common points! (The minimum bid was 500 common points)
Therefore, Fang Linyan decisively increased the price and raised the bid of No. 3 to 18,000 common points. At the same time, he prayed in his mind that the other party did not see his bid during this last hour.
It was a pity that Fang Linyan’s prayer didn’t work. Almost within a few seconds, the bid on No. 3 suddenly increased, and it went straight to 20,000 common points! Directly raising the price by 2000 common points,
The meaning expressed in this was very clear, that was, the other party’s determination to get it at all costs.
In this way, those who originally bade for the fun of course gave up. It was a pity that Fang Linyan didn’t seem to have any choice at this time. He could only sigh slightly and raised the price to 20,500 points. At this time, he had a little hope that this guy could keep bidding so that the mark couldn’t blame him if he failed.
Sure enough, the other party discovered Fang Linyan’s bid, and he actually increased the price again to 22,500 points, continuing his habit of adding 2000 common points.
Fang Linyan also continued to add 500 points, and the 2 began a tug of war…
The price on No. 3 soared all the way. In just a few minutes, it had soared all the way to 40,000 points!
After seeing this price, Fang Linyan simply bade all his common points! At this time, he had a 7.5 discount, so after bidding 33,772, he had actually raised No. 3 directly to the price of 42215 points.
This price was accurate to single digits, which showed that Fang Linyan was going all in. This is all I have, if you can raise it again, consider me lose!
As a result, the screen flickered in the next second, and No. 3 had reached the price of 42715 common points.
Fang Linyan was officially out…
At this time, it was reasonable to say that Fang Linyan should have a sense of relief, but for some reason, he actually felt a strong unwillingness at this moment!
Because since someone was willing to bid to this point, it was enough to show that there was actually a very huge secret hidden in this No. 3. The other party’s ambition even made Fang Linyan feel a strong feeling that once he missed it, then it was a lifelong regret!!
With this mentality, he closed his eyes, let out a sigh and said to Ruto,
“Mr. Ruto, is Star Consortium controlling behind this! Knowing that I want to buy this item, someone will deliberately raise the price! Otherwise, for this item that is about 10,000 common points, I can’t even get it with 40,000 common points!”
It was obviously not the first time Ruto had encountered such a problem. He said simply,
“If you have any questions about the credit of our consortium, you can consult your Space.”
As expected, Fang Linyan immediately consulted Space, and Space’s reply was quick and concise,
“The information gave by the black market must be true and credible.”
Hearing Space’s answer, Fang Linyan nodded slightly. He already had a plan in his mind. Then, he simply leaned back on the chair, closed his eyes and calmed down.
“No way, I was too impatient and made a big mistake before. If I want to get No. 3 at the current situation, I can’t do it like this. I have to have a mind game with the opponent at the very last moment! So, there is still half of the chance of bidding it.”
Ruto looked at Fang Linyan resting with his eyes closed, and he couldn’t help feeling nervous because Fang Linyan looked like he had given up directly.
For him, the most perfect ending was undoubtedly that Fang Linyan spent all his points during the auction, and the most imperfect ending was that Fang Linyan failed in the bid and he only used 20,000 common points before leaving. More importantly, Ruto couldn’t ask at this moment. He could only wait. This feeling was indeed quite uncomfortable.
Fang Linyan didn’t have time to care about Ruto’s mood at this time. He was calm on the surface, but he was rather impatient. He secretly calculated the time in his mind… About 10 minutes later, there was a message in the lower right corner of his retinas. Fang Linyan immediately opened it. It turned out that Wild Cat sent a message to him in the temporary team channel.
“Wrench, how is your consideration… are you selling the shotgun?”
Fang Linyan breathed out slowly; he had been waiting for this message from Wild Cat.
In fact, after Fang Linyan used it for a period of time, he found that the Governor’s Roar was actually not suitable for him. The negative special effect was triggered too frequently (although he had few equipment), the attack distance was too close, and the reload was too slow… etc. These weaknesses were too obvious. Fang Linyan’s aim wasn’t good either; he couldn’t exert its true power. If he could sell it at a decent price, he would consider it.
Strictly speaking, Fang Linyan felt that the real value of this gun was between 3000 common points and 5000 common points. However, he didn’t have the slightest affection for Wild Cat, so he must squeeze as much as he could.
According to Fang Linyan’s judgment, if Wild Cat really wanted his gun, he would definitely contact him again within an hour. The time to contact him should be half an hour. In this case, even if Fang Linyan rejected it, he could use the remaining half an hour to shop.
Of course, Fang Linyan didn’t rule out that after Wild Cat entered the black market, he directly found a particularly satisfactory substitute and did not contact him.
As for why Fang Linyan didn’t take the initiative to find Wild Cat was because he didn’t want to lose the dominance.
Wild Cat asked him with initiative, it was called buying; Fang Linyan had an absolute advantage in the price negotiation. But Fang Linyan took the initiative to ask, and in this black market, the other party could immediately calculate that he had a high probability of lacking points to buy things.
Then this transaction became a mutual benefit. If he didn’t sell, the other would think he was bluffing. Probably, he could only sell 8,000 for things that could sell for 10,000.
Therefore, Fang Linyan deliberately waited for 3 minutes before replying,
“Sorry, sorry, the salesgirl just was recommending some items in the VIP category, and I was lost in shopping… I like a weapon in it. If I have it, I can consider selling this shotgun…”
Hearing Fang Linyan say this, Wild Cat quickly spoke,
“Are you free? Let’s talk in the reception area.”
Fang Linyan nodded slightly, then said to Ruto,
“I will be going out for a while.”
Ruto’s heart sank suddenly. He is going now? Although it was already a good performance for him to successfully buy 3 Blood Orchid leaves and a root, as an excellent salesman, his job was to make the customer spend all points!
Therefore, he could only watch Fang Linyan go away with disappointed and resentful eyes. If Ruto was an unmarried, unbridled, fair-skinned young woman, then these eyes would be powerful enough to make Fang Linyan run in ashamed.
Regrettably, it was only a 30cm tall bamboo figure. No matter how soft the sound was corrected by the translator, there was no use when his true appearance was exposed…
***
After coming out of the trading room, Fang Linyan saw Wild Cat and Shania waiting on the sofa in the reception area. After seeing Fang Linyan, both stood up and bowed slightly.
Wild Cat wanted to speak, but he was stopped by Shania’s eye gesture. She smiled and said,
“Wrench, you can probably see that Wild Cat likes your shotgun very much. I wonder if you can let him take a look at its specific attributes?”
Fang Linyan said,
“No problem.”
After speaking, he took out the Governor’s Roar and set it directly into the exhibition state. In this state, the rest of the people could play, observe, and try at will, but they couldn’t it 5 meters away from the user. It would return to the user’s side automatically if it exceeded this range.
Wild Cat picked it up immediately. His breathing was a little heavy, and he stared at it tightly. Shania was still sitting gracefully, tilting her head to look over and sighing after 2 minutes,
“The negative attributes of this weapon are also very powerful; super close range and a special effect that will disable the equipment!”
Fang Linyan just smiled without speaking, then she stretched out his hand and said,
“I don’t want to argue whether this gun is valuable or not, because there is not much shopping time left. So, I only have 5 minutes of free time.”
Shania suddenly looked sullen for a moment, then she said,
“Wild Cat has an ability that matches shotgun very well, but it must be a weapon of black quality or higher to withstand it. We are now a team. If he gets a black quality shotgun, it will be of great help to the entire team. You can also benefit as a part of the team.”
Fang Linyan sneered in his mind and shrugged,
“I am also a good match for one of the weapons in it, but I’m lack of 10,000 common points to buy it. Why don’t you give me 10,000 common points too? I am also a member of the team, and you can benefit from the buffed strength.”
Fang Linyan’s words immediately shut Shania’s mouth. She bit her lower lip and snorted coldly. Wild Cat looked up at Fang Linyan and said in a deep voice,
“4,000 common points!”
TL: 4,000 is in the acceptable range for Fang Linyan, but he won’t just deal like this right? Also, why is Shania helping Wildcat so much? There seems to be something between them ?
