He quietly watched the chat channel’s heated discussion.
Long Tao’s brows raised slightly, and he opened the private chat interface.
“As expected….”
The person was none other than the Seventh Prince of the Great Xia Empire.
Xia Jie: “How did you do it? Do you have advanced troops? Also, I need three hundred catties of good quality fierce beast meat.”
Long Tao replied: “Your Highness, I was indeed lucky enough to obtain a troop blueprint. I will arrange a separate trade for the goods you need immediately.”
Xia Jie: “Hehe, good luck. It seems you’re trying to see if there’s a hidden trade quest? The cost isn’t small, do you have a way to know the inside story?”
Long Tao: “As expected of Your Highness, I did indeed find out the activation status of the hidden trade quest, and I also plan to earn Prestige. However, if you can obtain trade Prestige now, I will immediately cancel my subsequent plans!”
Xia Jie: “I do have the ability. Give me an hour.”
Upon seeing this message,
Long Tao’s brows suddenly furrowed. After a few seconds of silence, he replied: “Okay.”
Xia Jie: “Hahahaha, just kidding with you. Being able to hunt fierce beasts in large quantities on the fifth day is very good! You keep selling, we’ll meet and talk in a few days.”
Long Tao: “Understood!”
He closed the chat channel.
Long Tao narrowed his eyes and slowly sat down on his chair.
Meet and talk!
The other party must have sensed the crisis of the Newcomer King’s top spot and wanted to use a contract to bind him.
However…
“Hmph, outside you’re the Seventh Prince, but in the trial, you’re just a rich bachelor, nothing at all!”
If Xia Jie really had the ability to harvest Prestige just now,
he wouldn’t have foolishly waited for an hour.
Now…
Long Tao opened the chat interface again, a slight smile on his lips, “The low-price promotion just now has clearly attracted more attention. It’s time to make a move!”
Thinking of this,
he opened the input bar again and, after careful consideration, edited a very long message.
“The difficulty of this trial has suddenly increased, and no one could have predicted it. We Great Xia Lords should unite!”
“Lords with abundant resources should try their best to support other compatriots in desperate situations.”
“Lords with strength should strive to open up the situation for our compatriots!”
“Otherwise, once the Myriad Races Barrier disappears, our Blue Star Human Race will absolutely be unable to contend with the foreign race Lords!”
“This time, I, Long, still have one thousand five hundred catties of fierce beast meat for sale. To accommodate more people, there will be a purchase limit of 3 catties, at a price of 1 gold coin per catty.”
“This will continue for a period of time!”
“I hope that more Lords with strength can stand out with me, Long, and contribute a meager effort to the Great Xia Empire!”
“Enough talk… Now, the meat is on sale!”
“……..”
The message was sent.
Long immediately put all the fierce beast bones piled in front of him into the exchange.
In his mind, he could already see Prestige arriving, his strength rapidly increasing, and being flattered by all the Great Xia Lords!
“This batch of Prestige…”
“At least it can get me an Epic-grade hero.”
“Hmm? According to the Lord quantity of the trial, my goods should have sold out instantly.”
Thinking this,
Long Tao casually opened the trade dynamics.
“Hmm?”
“Why no movement?”
Two seconds later, the first sales notification popped up.
Then,
dense messages followed closely.
Over a thousand catties of fierce beast meat instantly turned into gold coins, becoming a string of numbers in the exchange.
But…
The expected notification did not sound.
Long Tao’s face was ashen at this moment, and he had a bad premonition.
When he opened the chat interface,
the content inside almost made him spit blood on the spot!
One second earlier, many Lords were still discussing how he killed fierce beasts.
Someone, he didn’t know who, suddenly said, “Hey hey… Quick, quick, look at the exchange… Lin Yi really put it on sale! Damn it, tens of thousands of catties!”
Instantly!
The channel, which had just been full of scrolling messages, fell silent!
No matter where they were,
when the Lords checked the tens of thousands of catties of fierce beast meat in the exchange, they were truly dumbfounded!
Seriously, buddy?
Are we playing the same trial?
Then, an overwhelming flood of information, like the Big Bang, swept over!
“Holy crap! Big shot, Lin Yi, do you still need a grandson? I have a Rare-grade territory characteristic, I’m here to be your grandson!”
“Hehehehehe, damn it, if I had known this was a dream, I should have touched the female villagers’ butts a few more times! Eh… I’m still not awake, I need to go try it quickly!”
“How is that possible! It’s been less than seven days since the descent, and the weekly quest hasn’t even appeared yet. How did he manage to hunt hundreds of fierce beasts at once? Even with a Legendary territory characteristic, you wouldn’t have such combat power at the start!”
“Scammer! Long Tao only sold for 1 gold, but he dares to sell for 3 gold! He’s clearly treating everyone like pigs to be slaughtered! I suggest we collectively boycott Lin Yi’s goods, everyone don’t buy!”
“Idiot, those are Level 8 and Level 9 fierce beasts, can the energy contained in them be compared to ordinary fierce beasts?”
“Thank you, Lin Yi! Level 9 fierce beast meat! He could clearly sell it to nobles for a higher price, but he sold it to the common people at a low price… Wuwuwu! Can my sister be your concubine? If not, being a civil servant is fine too.”
“Tears in my eyes! Who understands, families! In such a desperate situation, being able to buy one catty of Level 9 fierce beast meat for 3 gold coins will definitely be recorded in the Imperial textbooks!”
“Long Tao stepping forward makes us admire him, but Lin Yi’s demonstrated generosity is something we can never imagine! Enough said! From now on, Lin Yi is my godfather!”
“Damn it, everyone’s making wishes here? That’s a whopping twenty thousand catties of fierce beasts! And among them, there are many high-level fierce beasts! This kind of strength has already broken all historical records! Forget being a godson or concubine! Even being a dog in Lin Yi’s territory, your status would skyrocket!”
“Long Tao, you son of a bitch, you kept saying it was for the empire, but you didn’t hold back at all! Damn it, why are there still ordinary wild beast meats mixed in for sale? I was so afraid of missing out that I didn’t look at the information carefully, damn it! Buying one catty this time is like swallowing a bitter pill, if I buy your goods again, I’m a dog!”
“It’s really too dark… Look at Lin Yi… Good quality and cheap, with guaranteed quality! @Lin Yi, big shot, will there really be fierce beast meat tomorrow?”
“Mainly, no comparison means no harm… Lin Yi, from today onwards, is the GOAT in my heart!”
“……………”
The more messages he read,
the dizzier Long Tao’s head became, and his blood pressure gradually rose.
“Twenty thousand catties of fierce beast meat, what the hell?”
“Why the hell is it related to Lin Yi again!”
“My Prestige… Where’s my Prestige?”
Seeing that the system notification still hadn’t popped up, Long Tao felt completely numb!
His dark, fat face was flushed with anger.
“What exactly happened just now?”
Long Tao’s face was bewildered as he hastily scrolled through the barrage on the table, searching towards the very top.
Soon,
right below the message he had sent earlier,
a very familiar ID followed closely, also sending a barrage message.
“Lin Yi: Brother Long, you have such a grand vision! Alas! I originally wanted to be a profiteer… But, as the saying goes, the country is everyone’s, we can’t profit from national hardship for personal gain, right?”
“Since you, brother, have stepped forward, I can’t hide behind the scenes either!”
“Enough talk, these twenty thousand catties of high-level fierce beast meat, 3 gold coins per catty! Limit 1 catty per purchase!”
“Families! Get on board!”
At the same time,
the system notification he had been expecting also echoed in his mind!
……..
