Wang Jue was speechless when he entered the channels.
[Private messages: 99+]
He quickly browsed through these messages.
“Brother Wang, do you still have food? I can exchange for them using gold coins with you!”
“Boss, I don’t have gold coins, but I have iron ores. Would that do? I’m starving!”
“Brother, Big Brother Wang, I’m so hungry and miserable! I only have some basic supplies. Won’t you just give me some food in exchange…”
…
There were more than 100 private messages and all of them were basically asking him for food and water.
The bread and water Wang Jue previously posted had already been purchased.
Now, these people didn’t have anything precious on them. Instead, they were shamelessly begging Wang Jue.
Wang Jue smiled. How could I have the capacity to care for others now?
If there is what you need here, then trade for it. If not, then scram!
Wang Jue took a glance.
58 fewer deaths today compared to yesterday.
This meant that everyone’s capabilities were improving.
Although he was possibly in the lead right now, he could not relax.
Wang Jue had gained quite a lot of EXP today, so he used it all to level up in one go.
Currently, Wang Jue’s had already reached Level 5, and his attributes had improved.
Then, Wang Jue went to the trading market.
Most of the items that people put up for trading were ordinary.
The majority were wood and stones.
There were essentially none of blueprints, weapons, special materials and more.
Occasionally, Wang Jue would spot some slightly more valuable items. Their prices were indeed ridiculously high.
For example, the [Refined Armor Blueprint] that Wang Jue was seeing now was actually asking for 100 gold ores.
On average, one gold ore could be refined into 10 gold coins. 100 gold ores would be 1,000 gold coins!
Simply absurd.
Another example, the [Grade 1 Swordsmanship] Skill Book was also shockingly expensive.
No one could afford it in the short term.
This also implied that there were many people who were doing well in this world.
Speaking of which, if he utilized the trading market well, he could totally earn a good sum to ease his strained supply of the materials.
Construction was burning money every day. Wang Jue was also very short of money.
Wang Jue retracted his gaze and began thinking about what he could sell.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up as he looked towards the backyard.
The password to wealth is right beside me!
He had shopped around the trading market just now and did not find anything that could restore health points.
There was a considerable amount of herbs and raw materials for healing, but it was impossible to make potions without formulas and special structures.
Potions that could quickly recover health points were equivalent to treasures that could prolong life.
It didn’t matter if others didn’t have them. Wang Jue had one and dared to sell it. Moreover, the Gushing Spirit Well was producing spiritual spring water every day.
It was simply an inexhaustible “potion” production base!
At this thought, Wang Jue couldn’t hide his joy and excitement.
“I’m going to be rich!”
He quickly ran to the Gushing Spirit Well and rubbed his hands. He started to come up with a plan inwardly.
Presently, the Gushing Spirit Well is now producing 40 ml of spiritual spring water every hour, That makes it 960 ml per day.
I definitely have to keep some in stock.
Therefore, it will be more suitable to sell 60ml as a portion.
The Health Points of a common Overlord range between 130 to 180, and 60ml of spiritual spring water can restore 48 points.
With this calculation in mind, Wang Jue became even more excited.
“The password to wealth, this is simply the password to wealth, and I have almost no cost!
“The name of this product shall be Potion of Life!
“The label will be Recovery Potion!”
Wang Jue opened the production tab.
He spent some time and used some stones to make a few simple bottles.
Then, he carefully filled the spiritual spring water into the stone bottles.
Pick up the products.
[Name: 60 ml Potion of Life]
[Effect: After consuming it, you will recover 48 Health Points]
[Price: 100 Gold Coins]
[Alternative: Blueprints, Skill Books, Special Materials]
[Quantity: 10]
For the vast majority of capable people, they could afford this price. Although their heart might ache, they would definitely pay the price.
The items that could directly recover Health Points were safeguards for most people when they were out exploring!
Wang Jue immediately put 600ml of his potion onto the trading market.
He then returned to his hut.
He planned to check on the transaction when he woke up.
At the same time, the World Channel exploded again.
Wang Jue’s private messages channel started going off like mad again.
Fortunately, the chatting function was perfect. Wang Jue directly searched the keywords and read the necessary messages.
He took a look. Most of them were items of little value.
There were also some items that were framed to be special materials but were actually dogsh*t items.
[Suspected Huge Dragon’s Hair], [Ogre’s Mace], [King’s Sword], and more.
Wang Jue could see the detailed pictures of the items. He took a second look at the one named [King’s Sword]. It was just an ordinary silver sword. Other than looking good, it was useless.
Wang Jue was speechless.
He closed the channel.
He laid on the broken bed in the hut.
Perhaps because he was tired, but he soon let out an even breathing sound and fell asleep.
The howls of wild beasts could occasionally be heard from outside the courtyard.
Some of these wild beasts came near the courtyard but were killed by the wolves without exception.
This gave Wang Jue some EXP.
The night sky was dotted with stars, but it was unknown how many people could sleep peacefully tonight.
…
The next morning, Wang Jue was awakened by the sunlight.
He stretched.
He started checking the system mail.
[The item you put up for sale (Potion of Life) has been purchased by Overlord Chen Ran 155.22. You have received 100 Gold Coins.]
[The item you put up for sale (Potion of Life) has been purchased by Overlord Wang Xiao 188.2. You have received 100 Gold Coins.]
[The item you put up for sale (Potion of Life) has been purchased by Overlord He Luo 162.15. You have received 100 Gold Coins.]
[The item you put up for sale… You have received 100 Gold Coins.]
…
Within Wang Jue’s period of sale, all 10 portions of the Potion of Life had been sold out.
Wang Jue received 1000 gold coins.
He became rich overnight.
It seems like this spiritual spring is indeed hard currency!
Anyone would pay for something that could save their lives.
At the same time, Wang Jue also noticed an interesting private message.
Dan Luoning 180.62: Do you still have stock for the Potion of Life? I have a Refined Skill Book for forging techniques here. I want to trade it for 500ml of the Potion of Life with you. Is that okay?
Wang Jue thought for a moment and replied,
“I don’t have much in my inventory, and I have to keep some for myself. 500ml is impossible. If you’re willing, we can do 200ml!”
This woman was too good at doing business. Wang Jue didn’t intend to agree to her request at once.
Dan Luoning probably had the intention of testing Wang Jue. After all, with such a precious recovery potion, if Wang Jue acted like he had a lot of them right from the start, she was bound to have other thoughts.
The greed of humans was endless.
It would be much easier if there was limited stock. Firstly, a rare commodity was worth hoarding to corner the market. Secondly, only Wang Jue had this item. If she wanted it, she would have to comply with his conditions.
This was the operation of a monopoly..
