Online Games: Light and Dust

The author has something to say: Well, this chapter will have a long description, if you can bear it, please read it as much as possible, because the specific explanation is how Lin Yu became a helpless little nanny It is feasible to make money in the game, because I tried it in the game when I was a freshman. At that time, I tried gem trading. I calculated the cost of synthesizing high-grade gems with low-grade gems in the blacksmith shop. Then kill those low-level gems that rookies get from dungeons in the exchange, the attack power ruby ​​magic is sapphire, and the archer’s topaz is something... But I felt dizzy, dizzy, hand cramps, and my heart was nervous after holding on for an hour. It's almost speeding, so the money is really not easy to earn.

Swallow needle grass

By the time Bai Xiaoxu finished his afternoon nap, there were already more than 60 three-star grasses in Lin Yu's package.

"You didn't take a nap?" Bai Xiaoxu held a toothbrush in his mouth, and moved to the computer: "Oh, what are you listening to?"

Lin Yu unplugged the headphones silently.

The voice from the IPOD came out.

Bai Xiaoxu and Lin Yu can also be regarded as a major. They are both students of Mr. Li's school, and they are used to seeing strange seniors.

But he was still startled by Lin Yu.

"Are you listening to English physics papers while playing games?" Bai Xiaoxu glared at Lin Yu: "Are you listening to English papers like songs?"

Lin Yu nodded, put on the earphones, took them off again, and corrected him: "You need to use your brain to listen to physics papers, but not to collect herbs. You've got it wrong."

Obviously, Lin Yu is a person with compulsive compulsive disorder like his mother.

He enjoys collecting herbs, fishing, and hunting in the game. He runs around in the mountains collecting herbs, glances at the small map from time to time, and looks at the package every time he picks a three-star grass. The number in the "Samsung Grass x2" grid slowly increased, and he felt a deep sense of satisfaction in his heart.

Bai Xiaoxu got used to his strange remarks, made a glass of milk, and leaned over again: "Why are you saving so many herbs?"

"Start-up capital." Lin Yu answered him briefly.

Bai Xiaoxu shrugged.

He still believes in Lin Yu's ability - the last time he played a game, he needed to produce a piece of equipment, and he was short of tens of thousands of gold coins. After Lin Yu found out, he stood by the exchange and helped him all night Got it all together.

He just didn't understand what exactly Lin Yu liked about that guy named Cheng Xi.

He is a bit more normal than Lin Yu, and his face looks like a genius and beautiful boy, so he is very popular outside.So she vaguely knows that Cheng Xi has a bad temper and is not serious about dating. Although she looks a little better, Lin Yu should not be the one who looks at the face.

He actually doesn't like Chen Xi very much.

Lin Yu held three gold ingots, 35 silver and hundreds of copper coins, and put a few three-star grass in his backpack. He was wearing a novice whiteboard, and squatted silently next to the NPC in the exchange.

Players in the End of the Sky can only enter the exchange at level 20, but Lin Yu opened a [-] yuan membership, did not change equipment or receive double experience cards, but ordered a merchant function,

It's a bit too extravagant to do that.

After all, if you try your best to upgrade, it will take less than a week to reach level 1, and the exchange rate between gold coins and RMB in the End of the Sky is close to 1:[-]. It's just four gold coins.

Of course, this equation doesn't hold true for Lin Yu, who would rather spend the morning picking herbs than accepting tasks.He collects herbs for entertainment. For a collector maniac, the most fun thing in this game is to run around to collect herbs.

Moreover, the merchant also gives away several warehouse spaces, and an unlimited number of transactions on the exchange within a month.

The currency in Tianzhiya is a gold ingot = 100 taels of silver = 1000 copper coins.The money in Tianzhiya is very valuable, and the gold ingot and RMB are 1:1.

All players who can enter the exchange can sell the unbound items in their packages on the exchange, and the price can be marked by you.For example, Samsung Grass, you can sell one tree, and the market price in the game is 8 taels of silver, or it can be priced at 1000 taels of silver, or it can be priced at one tael of silver.You can also sell groups of seven or eight trees and mark the price yourself.

The system commission for each transaction is 100 coins.

Lin Yu has already turned off the thesis sound in the earphones, and he is sitting upright in front of the desk, with his fingers on the mouse wheel, his eyes half-closed behind the thick lenses, and his lips pursed, watching the rapid slides across the screen. of exchange items.If his father were here, he should be surprised to find that the expression of concentration on his son's delicate face is exactly the same as when his wife was picking up the leaks in the antique market.

There are 20 sellers’ items on the exchange, and each item is only displayed as a thin bar on the screen, marked with the serial number, seller’s name, item, quantity, price, and notes written by the seller.

There are professional game studios calling here to sell products that meet the market price.

There are also selling items that want to take advantage of other people's momentary dazzle and add an extra zero to the price of the product.

There are also items that are marked with sky-high prices and listed on the exchange, just because there is no place to put them in the warehouse for the time being.

There are also novice players who have just entered the game who do not understand the market price, so the sale with a price lower than the market price will usually be bought by a knowledgeable person after a short time.

These items include equipment, pills, herbs, quest items, and hearthstones to strengthen equipment.

Lin Yu had only three targets: Three Star Grass, Phoenix Feather, and Hearthstone.

Three Star Grass is a substitute for Seven Star Grass. Seven Star Grass is a top-level medicinal herb and is a necessity for refining many high-level elixirs. Grass is not enough, supply exceeds demand.It can only be replaced by seven three-star grass.Although the chances of appearing spiritual pills are a little lower than using Seven Star Grass directly, it is better than nothing.

Therefore, seven three-star grasses are sold together, and the unit price of each tree is higher than that of a single three-star grass. Seven three-star grasses are called a group. The current market price of a group of seven-star grass is generally 80 silver taels.

However, many new players have just entered the game and are eager to upgrade their quests. They don't have much time to collect three-star grass, so they just pick it up when they encounter it.Generally, there are only a few three-star grass in the package, and there is no high-level medicine for the time being. If you are eager to free up space in the package, or exchange money to buy key equipment to enhance your strength, you will take out the three-star grass and sell it.In order to be able to sell quickly, it is usually marked down a little.

And it happened that there were seven three-star grasses, so it was very difficult.The production place of three-star grass is only near Novice Village, near the level 36 task receiving place, and it is far away from the main city. Few people go that far for a few three-star grass.

Therefore, the three-star grass on the exchange is often not just a group of seven.

The buyers of the Three Star Grass are all high-level players, and most of them want to buy Three Star Grass temporarily when making elixirs, so naturally they want to buy multiples of seven.

This has led to the high price of three-star grass in multiples of seven.

Compared with the three-star grass that is not a multiple of seven, it is relatively cheap.The market price of seven three-star grasses is 70 taels.On average, each tree is 10 taels, and the remaining three or four three-star grasses that are hung up for sale are generally only sold at the market price of 8 taels, because most of the sellers want to make room for parcels quickly.So I don't care about the few taels of silver.After all, playing games is for fun, and no one will be so good at it.

This is the opportunity for Lin Yu to make money.What he has to do is the job of a businessman: buy high and sell low, buy the scattered and cheap three-star grass in the exchange, hoard them, and sell them in groups of seven.

In the same way, Phoenix Feather is a group of 8 to replace the high-level Suzaku Feather, and Hearthstone is a group of 9 to replace the high-level cinnabar.

It is easy to understand, but it is not easy to actually do it.

First of all, everyone knows the market price of a three-star grass, 8 taels of silver.

However, the items sold on the exchange may be 8 three-star grass for 68 taels, or 88 taels, 76 taels for 600 copper coins, or 82 taels for 68 copper coins.

更不用说大批的三星草，挂在交易所里，是22棵三星草卖1个金元宝88两，或者32棵三星草标价2个金元宝30两银子。

This requires the buyer to convert the currency unit first, and then quickly calculate the unit price of each three-star grass.

It is very likely that you worked hard to calculate it, and the result was more expensive than the market price, or you calculated it lower than the market price, but it was bought by others at that time.With such a huge amount of brainpower, he can only earn a few taels of silver.It is really earning money from selling cabbage, but it has the heart of selling white powder.Those who are qualified for this kind of work have long been working as actuaries in reality with an annual salary of one million yuan. Who still earns this amount of money that is only a few cents of RMB.

But Lin Yu was different.The reason why he earns money selling cabbage here is because there are people he likes in this game.

His father received a subsidy from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He is the technical leader of the largest chemical company in China. He graduated from college and came from an Ivy League background. He has an IQ of 153 and can calculate the square of four digits.

His mother has been in the antique market where you have sold you all year round and you have counted the money for him. How many dragons and tigers have been through, it is really honed on the battlefield, and he rarely misses. If the items he buys are sold, the profit margin can be as good as luxury. Try it out.

When he was a child, the bedtime stories his father told were about the discovery of various chemical elements, and his mother told about the origins of the antiques at home. Before he learned pinyin, he knew to recite various constants. When others use a calculator to calculate, he still calculates by mouth.When others have insomnia, they count sheep. When they have insomnia, they calculate the square of five digits in their minds.Even old man Li, sometimes let him be a calculator when doing calculation problems, because he is more convenient than a computer, and he doesn't need to input functions.

It is said that physics and mathematics belong together, and calculating the unit price is a piece of cake for him.

He screened out all the three-star grass for sale.While staring at the screen, he quickly dragged down with the mouse wheel. When he saw that the unit price was less than the purchase price in his heart, he quickly bought it.If special effects could be done, those items that he glanced at would have a glittering unit price number on the right.

After a while, he divided the three-star grass in the package into groups of seven and hung them up for sale. The selling price was 79 taels of silver and 500 copper coins.

It was already afternoon at this time, there were already quite a few players online, and the three-star grass he hung up was sold out quickly.He was buying and selling at the same time, faster than picking three star grass outside.

When ten gold ingots were saved in the package, he switched to Phoenix Feather.

He knows that now is not the best time to do business, but night is.

He only deals with these three kinds of necessities, not equipment. Apart from capital constraints, it is also because of the high demand for these necessities. Even if the game is revised, it will not be affected. He can buy and sell for a long time and stock up. low risk.

After he even tried the hearthstone business, Bai Xiaoxu came back.

"Teacher Li said that you can be absent from class, but if you don't get a place in the physics competition, I will settle the accounts with you." Bai Xiaoxu put the lunch box on his desk: "Hey, your meal."

Lin Yu squatted on the stool, listening to the headphones, staring at the exchange on the screen while eating.

His mother doesn't know how to cook. When he was a child, his grandma always worried that he wouldn't eat well. His grandma was from the south. After his grandma passed away, he hired a nanny. He also grew up and seldom ate at home.

The pickled peppers in the cafeteria were very spicy, and the tip of his nose was red, and he reached out to buy the cheap three-star grass that had been refreshed from time to time.It's not that I'm in a hurry to make some money, but I want to buy those cheap three-star grasses that are not Qike, so that the buyers won't hesitate when they see it.

There are also special cases in the exchange. For example, if there is a spiritual item or +10 item for sale, there will be a red letter notification.The equipment and pills in the game are divided into ordinary products, immortal products, spiritual products, and artifacts (this name is too mocking, so players call it the best product).

Just as Lin Yu bought a set of three-star grass, a line of red letters slid across the bottom:

Player Beacon sells [Elf Suit (Fire)] on the exchange.

Lin Yu quickly closed the exchange.

Cheng Xi is online.

On the World Channel, there has been a lot of noise.

[World] Xinxin Keer: Hahaha, our gang leader is online.Fire wolf, you guys are finished...~(≧▽≦)/~ la la la

[World] KingKarl: Those wild dogs called fire wolves, stop barking, our lord is here to feed you.

[World] The wind blows PP and it's chilly: Why don't everyone dare to say anything, they're dumb, and now they know they're scared!

……

The fire wolf was not to be outdone, and the man called Lone Wolf yelled at the world, although he was scolding the few people who spoke badly in the world, but he brought a lot of forbidden words.

Fenghuo appeared at this time.

[World] Fenghuo: I heard that your wolves want to fight gang wars.

[World] Fenghuo: Where is the Fire Werewolf?

The wolf tribe disappeared for more than a minute.

[World] Beacon: Aren't you still browsing the world this morning?Chat with me privately now.

[World] Fenghuo: I don't have that American time, so I can't type a word.If you don't want to fight, let the person who brushes the world today apologize to Bu Jingyun, otherwise I will meet with you.Don't be annoying by whining all day long, I still have to take a shower, so I don't have time to play with you.

[World] Wan Ran smiled: What happened today?Not in a good mood? :)

[World] Fenghuo: School matters, annoying!

[World] Yun Wuyi: Collect three-star grass, coral grass, red vermilion fruit and phoenix feather, which are effective for a long time.

[World] Xinxin Ke'er: Brother Yunwuyi, why are you so annoying~ You always use advertisements when there are events in our world.

[World] Wanran smiled: Fenghuo, you should go take a shower first.

[World] Wan Ran smiled: This incident should be just a misunderstanding, and Fire Wolf didn't want to make trouble to this point.

[World] Xinxin Ke'er: Sister Wanran, it's my fault, I made too much fuss, I shouldn't have called the gang leader to teach them a lesson... I was wrong O(∩_∩)O~

[World] Yun Wuyi: Collect three-star grass, coral grass, red vermilion fruit and phoenix feather, which are effective for a long time.

……

In the end, it seemed that this matter was resolved through private negotiation between Wan Ran Yi Xiao and Huo Lang.

In fact, Lin Yu didn't pay attention to the follow-up development of this matter - since he found out that Fenghuo really went to take a bath, and his profile picture turned gray, he plunged into the exchange.

Lin Yu stayed at the exchange until late at night that day.

When he turned off the computer, he in the game was already a small rich man with hundreds of gold ingots. You know, in the game, with so much money, one can buy a full-level fairy equipment.
