Chapter 42 p2
Li Feng looked at the man coldly and judged that his strength was not weak. His gaze was not hidden at all, and the man quickly looked over.
But the other party just blinked slowly, without any panic of being caught. Li Feng’s expression was a little ugly. Yu Chi next to him was still thinking about which plot of land to buy, completely carefree.
“Let’s buy a 20-square-meter plot in the core area first.”
Yu Chi finally made up her mind.
She turned her head. It was very noisy around. To speak, she leaned to the side. The warm breath brushed against her neck. Li Feng saw that the man was still looking over, without any emotional fluctuations.
Heh… he smiled, his eyes carrying a bit of hostility, and a strong fighting spirit arose.
It was not until Yu Chi’s confused voice suddenly sounded in his ear.
“Why are you smiling so perversely?”
The expression on Li Feng’s face stiffened. He heard Yu Chi continue, “So disgusting. Stop smiling.”
“…”
His thoughts were interrupted. When he looked up, he found that the man had disappeared. Li Feng’s expression darkened. He suddenly thought of something and was thoughtful. “I always feel that there will be a fight if I’m with you.”
Yu Chi: “? Nonsense! I never cause trouble.”
But Li Feng no longer mentioned this topic. He stretched. “Have you decided?”
A 20 square meter plot of land required a payment of 20 million crystals. Yu Chi had decided, but she felt her heart was bleeding. However, the number of transactions in the core area today was already 9. She had to pay as soon as possible.
Otherwise, she would have to wait until next week… she was glad that she had come in time.
Just as Yu Chi was about to pay, she heard a sudden shout from behind her.
“Wait!”
Yu Chi’s fingers paused. She didn’t think he was talking to her, so she continued to operate—buying a plot of land required several procedures.
“Didn’t I tell you to wait?! Are you fucking deaf!” Although it was a man, his voice was sharp and ear-piercing. Many people looked over with curious and disgusted gazes.
The five types of land transactions were distributed in five different areas. The place where Yu Chi was standing was the core area.
Because the daily transaction amount was limited, the core area only had one screen, while the other areas had multiple screens.
Yu Chi’s expression paused. She was sure that the person behind her was talking to her. She felt the other party’s gaze was full of strong malice. Before she could react, the malicious gaze disappeared.
Her hands did not stop. She glanced back, and Li Feng was standing in front of her.
“Fuck, who the hell are you?” The sharp voice kept ringing, and at the same time, he was constantly approaching with the person behind him. “Can you afford it? You’re fucking standing here. You’re probably just here to see the world, right? You’d better get out of my way, or…”
Before the man could finish, Yu Chi had already entered the transaction amount and the number of crystals. She came to the last procedure and pressed the pay button.
A huge smiley face popped up on the screen, showing that the purchase was successful.
Yu Chi turned around, her hand on Li Feng’s shoulder, and poked her head out from the side. She was holding a black crystal stone in her hand, which was the certificate for the land.
“I’m done. Let’s go.”
Li Feng heard the faint pride in her voice, sneered, and no longer cared about the idiot in front of him. He hummed in agreement.
The two of them turned and left directly.
Time was limited. They still needed to go to the auction house on the third floor to list their things. If possible, they would also take a look to see if there were any other good things to buy.
You couldn’t fight on the inner island—everyone had learned the consequences of fighting in the channel.
Yesterday, a riot had accidentally occurred. All the players who had fought on the inner island, regardless of who started it, were all half-killed by the system.
Someone was very unhappy with this rule, thinking that those who were forced to fight should not be punished.
But it could not be denied that with this rule, the inner island was indeed more peaceful today, and there were even fewer verbal disputes.
Li Feng thought calmly, why don’t I find a chance to get that guy to the outer island? He’s so annoying.
Witnessing the two of them completely ignore him and leave directly, the man’s eyes were about to pop out. His mental state was already not very stable. Now that he had failed to complete the mission from above, his expression became more and more sinister.
It’s all because of these two… The anger in the man’s heart burned more and more fiercely. After learning from his subordinates that there was only one spot left today, he, who was still in the arena, had immediately rushed over.
However, he was still a step too late… he was not a fool. He had screamed and cursed from a distance just to delay the other party’s payment time… as long as he could get there, they had more people, and blocking would definitely not be a problem.
—But the other party was not affected at all and just calmly paid.
The anger of being beaten to it and being ignored made his eyes red. His subordinates cowered and lowered their heads, not daring to speak. The man suddenly smiled sinisterly. “It seems they’re going to an auction. Let’s go and see!”
The system’s fully intelligent operation was very friendly to the socially anxious. All players who chose to submit items would be placed in a separate private room. Yu Chi glanced at Li Feng and filled in two names in the submitter’s field.
She was now… actually quite trusting of Li Feng.
“Where is this?”
Suddenly changing places, Li Feng’s expression instantly became vigilant. He hadn’t even looked at the rules before and had been slowly following behind the girl, either in a daze or competing with the surrounding people to see whose gaze was fiercer.
Yu Chi occasionally felt that Li Feng was like a wolfdog on a leash.
“It should be a separate space specially created to avoid prying eyes,” Yu Chi said. “Do you have anything you don’t want that you want to sell?”
Li Feng’s brows furrowed, and he began to rummage through his backpack.
Yu Chi temporarily ignored him and seriously took things out of her space.
This separate place did not look big, but it was an infinitely expanding space that could hold any number of items.
As soon as Li Feng looked up, he saw Yu Chi holding a cabbage that was taller than her. After noticing his gaze, she even said lightly, “Don’t worry, I’ll save some for you.”
Li Feng: “…”
I’ve been had.
Well, although he was indeed craving it.
Seeing Li Feng’s rare shocked face, Yu Chi’s expression did not change, but in fact, her heart was already flying with joy.
It’s time for you guys to see my giant things—
Tremble, players!
Li Feng and Zuo He had only seen her super-large rice, but since she had acquired more and more seeds in her shop, the giant crops were no longer limited to the previous few types.
Yu Chi frantically took things out. When she took out a basketball-sized cherry, Li Feng had already recovered his intimidating expression, but his eyes, staring at the giant crop, were a little fierce.
“I really saved some for you,” Yu Chi promised.
Li Feng snorted coldly. “You didn’t take them out before, did you?”
Yu Chi touched her nose guiltily. The giant crops had long since passed their novelty period for her, so it was normal to forget.
“By the way,” she changed the subject, “how’s your territorial sea?”
A day’s delay, and the cleaning of the territorial sea had to be postponed again.
Li Feng’s face was expressionless: “My luck is too bad. I haven’t gotten a territorial sea order yet.”
Yu Chi: “…”
She remembered that the first time this person had come to her to buy something was because his luck was too bad and he couldn’t get any food.
Yu Chi blinked. “I still have a territorial sea order, but its grade is not high…”
“No need,” Li Feng glanced at her. “I’ll buy it myself.”
Seeing him say so, Yu Chi nodded directly. Li Feng was actually quite rich. At least he could get a rare-grade territorial sea order. It was just a matter of time.
Yu Chi did not take out all the giant crops. She took out a total of 20 types of crops, 100 of each, and then chose to auction them all separately.
What she took out were all vegetables and fruits, all of which were relatively scarce items on the market at this stage. Even normal vegetables and fruits could be sold for hundreds of Purification Crystals. Hers would only be more valuable.
Don’t look at her spending in the tens of millions now. That was for buying land. In fact, for ordinary players, having a few thousand or tens of thousands of Purification Crystals in savings was already very good.
…So ordinary players didn’t have to think about the territorial sea order at all. Even if they used it, they couldn’t afford to purify it.
To avoid trouble, Yu Chi set the starting price of these giant crops at 1000 Purification Crystals, directly ignoring factors such as size, type, etc.
Giant crops could make people feel very full. In addition, they also had a certain effect of relieving mental stress. However, the latter was not written in the description, and it would only be useful if a certain amount was used.
After selling all these giant crops, she could earn at least 2 million. This was just her testing the waters in the market. If they sold well, she planned to put up another batch for auction, and then put the rest in her shop as a “unique selling point.”
Yu Chi also listed the territorial sea order and the two declaration of war orders, all priced at 1 million Purification Crystals.
This thing was relatively rare. No matter how it was priced, it would not affect the auction, unless there was a large force that monopolized it and directly bought it at the lowest price. But these forces had not yet formed.
…I can go see the leisure social area later. Yu Chi narrowed her eyes. She remembered that the forum had said yesterday that there were already alliances there.
Li Feng also took out all the items he didn’t use. Yu Chi took a look and was startled.
They were all kinds of weapons and armor, from common to legendary, and there were several of each.
Yu Chi: “You’re selling even the legendary ones?”
“It’s boring after using them for a long time,” Li Feng said. “They’re not as good as my long spear.”
Yu Chi understood. She guessed that the long spear was probably his talent item, so other weapons were relatively weak compared to the long spear for him.
The value of the items the two of them took out for auction was as high as tens of millions. After the system estimated the value, it directly teleported them to a high-level auction private room.
From the private room, you could directly see the scene below. You could directly enter the numbers to bid, but if you felt that you were not participating enough, you could also directly click the button to bid.
Yu Chi stuck her head out and looked. She was a little curious about this scene. There was a huge round table on the auction stage. The auctioned items would be sent up from the bottom each time and then presented to everyone on a large screen.
And the players stood in the hall or sat in the private rooms, excitedly discussing what items would appear later. For them, who had been drifting on the sea for more than a month, the novelty of the auction house was particularly strong.
Yu Chi heard a prompt in her ear, opened the chat box, and took a look. “My dad is also at the auction house. Do you want to go with me after it’s over?”
Li Feng sat lazily on the sofa, still gnawing on the watermelon Yu Chi had given him. “Whatever.”
Yu Chi nodded, subconsciously rubbing the table. Her dad had said that her brother also wanted to see her and asked her to decide whether to meet him or not.
Brother… Yu Chi knew of his existence. After her mom divorced and went abroad, she had quickly remarried abroad. From the bits and pieces of information, she could tell that she was very happy.
However, she didn’t have much emotional fluctuation because of this sentence. It was just that she hadn’t expected it to be such a coincidence.
The auction began at nine o’clock on the dot, and the entire venue instantly became lively.
The first auctioned item was a black hiking backpack. The description on it said it was a space container, but its grade was not high, only excellent.
However, space containers were too rare. The moment the auction item came out, Yu Chi could feel the fiery gazes from below and the sky-high discussions.
She turned her head and saw that Li Feng was also seriously entering a price.
“You’re not thinking of buying it to store meat, are you?”
Li Feng: “What else?”
The world has long suffered from the lack of backpack space. Yu Chi’s lips curled up proudly, revealing the dimples on both sides of her cheeks. Fortunately, I have the [Two-Sided Mirror], la la la la.
