Chapter 39: The First Floor of the Ancient Tomb

It took most of the day to get a general understanding of the gem shop's business model, and its profit method is mainly to buy gems at a low price, and then sell them in the store after synthesizing, and at the same time, it will also take on some work to help players synthesize, charging cheap manual fees.

Nowadays, the starting price of gem fragments in the auction hall is generally more than 1 gold and 10 silver, and it is not uncommon for many whimsical players to set the reserve price to more than 1 gold and 20 silver, but the gem shop buys the gem fragments at the price of 1 gold coin, and after synthesizing, they are sold at the same price as the auction hall to earn the difference in the middle.

Gem fragments are such a thing, players will have more or less a few on them, and even though the price in the auction hall is higher, due to the number of listings, it is usually impossible to exchange gold coins in a short period of time, and many players who are in a hurry to make money can't wait for that time, so it is normal to sell 10 or so silver coins cheaply to a gem shop that can pay at any time.

Don't underestimate these 10 or so silver coins, you can earn 10 silver coins by buying a gem fragment, if you can buy 100 pieces, it is 10 gold coins, if you buy 1000 pieces, then you will have hundreds of gold coins every day. One of the reasons why Lam Kee Gem Shop cannot survive is that the market has not yet opened, and it is caught between two prestigious auction houses. The second is that the financial capacity is limited, relying entirely on this single model, and lacking the ability to adapt.

However, these things did not have a negative impact on Ye Scar.

The business model he planned was the opposite of the usual gem shop, taking the high-end route, which not only made the gold come quickly, but also made it the most trouble-free.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Zhen opened the shopkeeper's management page, closed the sale business of the gem shop, and then increased the purchase price of the gem fragment by 5 silver coins, setting it to 1 gold and 5 silver.

Nowadays, Leaf Scar is not very interested in selling gems below the full grade.

Halfway through, Ye Scar returned to the Bright Pharmacy once, and took out a full 20,000 gold coins from the pharmacy and filled them into the gem shop to buy gem fragments.

After doing this, Ye Zhen quickly went up to the second floor and walked to the idle wood in front of the craft table.

Seeing the boss Ye Zhen go upstairs, the emaciated figure of the wood moved slightly, and he still couldn't get up from the chair after all. It's just that he is still playing with the little tweezers in his hand, and he said casually, "Don't blame me for being lazy, there are no gems in the store for me to synthesize now." ”

For the legendary top master next to him, Mu Tu, who is obsessed with the career of a gem craftsman, is not cold, and in his opinion, instead of going to the field to fight desperately for a piece of equipment, it is better to sit in a comfortable chair and work with sparkling gems all day long, which is both comfortable and eye-catching.

Hearing this, Ye Zhen was slightly stunned, and immediately stared at the lazy young man in front of him who should be about the same age as himself. Wearing a black and gray gem craftsman suit, set off the fair skin, his face was a little thin, only a pair of dark and bright eyes, flashing with persistent brilliance from time to time.

"Why are you staring at me, don't think that you can do whatever you want if you give me a high salary, I can tell you, I'm a 'normal' man." Seeing this 'wronged big man' looking at himself so openly, Mu suddenly felt a chill, and suddenly got goosebumps all over his body.

"Your name is Lin Mu, right?" Facing the appearance of the wood, Ye Zhen spit out lightly disappreciatively, and then asked intently, "To be honest, do you want to get rich and let your father look at you with admiration!" ”

"Ahem..."Hearing the unexpected words, Lin Mu first coughed violently a few times, and his eyes suddenly widened when he looked at Ye Zhen, and when he felt that the strange guy in front of him didn't seem to be joking with himself, a look of hope suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he nodded heavily, "Of course I want to, who doesn't want to get rich." But the problem is that I won't get rich, I'm just a gem craftsman who will never make a profit. ”

Recalling the heartbroken look when he reprimanded himself, an indescribable look suddenly appeared on the face of the wood, Boss Lin is now over half a hundred years old, but he still has to run around for family life, although the conditions of the family are quite comfortable now, but he knows that a large part of the reason why his father is unwilling to settle down is that he hopes that his son can live a more relaxed life after getting married and having children.

Actually, it's not that Wood doesn't want to follow his father's wishes, and become a respected master or a big man in the game like this guy in front of him. It's just that the country is easy to change, his surname is difficult to change, he has been lazy since he was a child, and if he is asked to go to the next copy to fight the boss, it will definitely make him more uncomfortable than beating him severely.

"Who says the carpenteran is unproductive?" With a soft slurp, Ye Zhen suddenly shifted his gaze to the small silver tweezers in the wood's hand, and explained slowly, "If you want to make a fortune, if you don't rely on anything else, you have to rely on this unproductive gem craftsman." ”

"How to get rich?" Hearing this, the wood's eyes suddenly lit up, and both hands grabbed Ye Zhen's arm violently, as if grasping a life-saving straw. If Ye Scar said that there was a way to make a fortune other than the Gem Maker, he would definitely scoff at it, but the Gem Maker was different, and he thought that his achievements in this area would definitely rank in the top 10 of the game.

"Don't get excited." Every subtle change in Wood's face fell in Ye Zhen's eyes, he glanced at the helpless and emaciated young man in front of him, and said seriously, "I can't tell you yet, but when you become a master gem craftsman, you will naturally know." ”

"Can a master gem craftsman make a fortune? How can I trust you? Staring intently at the dark shadow in front of him, the doubts on the wood's face were clear, he called the wood good, but it didn't mean that his brain was bad, on the contrary, he knew more about the profession of a gem craftsman than anyone else.

"I just don't want you to continue to sink, as for believing it or not, that's your business, it's none of my business." Ye Zhen spread his shoulders noncommittally, and there was no lack of playfulness in his words.

"Well, I believe you."

However, the rich eyebrows of the wood were raised, but he took it seriously, as a player like him who can only synthesize gems, he would rather believe that the profession of gem craftsman can also make a fortune!

"As long as you can provide me with enough gems, I can rush to the expert level in a week without eating or drinking, but there is not even a single gem fragment in the store now, so I can only sit here and wait." As he spoke, a look of frustration suddenly appeared on Wood's face, and as his father resold the gem shop, the remaining gems in the shop were also sold at the auction house.

"Really? What do you see this is? Ye Zhen smiled slightly, and suddenly poured out a pigeon egg gem like a tide from his backpack. There are more than 4,000 mutilated gems here, which is enough for you to use for a few days, and the store below has also begun to buy a large number of gem fragments, you can pick them up below when you run out of them, I don't think you are too lazy to even walk a few steps, right? ”

As soon as he heard Ye Zhen's words, the wood that was so bright by the sudden gem brilliance that he couldn't open his eyes suddenly showed a look of embarrassment on his face, "Of course not, thank you, Night Without a Trace!" ”

Hearing this, Ye Zhen shook his head slightly and encouraged, "Come on, I vouch for my reputation, the day you rise to the master level will also be the day you raise your eyebrows in front of your family." ”

For the persistent young man in front of him, Ye Zhen was not disgusted with him, on the contrary, he still admired this unruly guy a little. In today's era when everyone dreams of getting a set of god costumes, this guy has always insisted on his unproductive profession and is not moved by external objects, which is indeed a miracle.

Back at the Bright Pharmacy, Ye Zhen first filled up the short-sold medicines on the counter, and then took out the fog shadow to trace and find out his sister's coordinates, it has been ten days, and Ye Ke's girl has not returned to the city, saying that he is not worried that it is definitely fake.

"Why are you still on the sixth floor of the ancient tomb?" Muttered, the data displayed on the ancient compass made Ye Zhen's brows furrow slightly, Ye Ke, who was most afraid of zombie skeletons since he was a child, actually stayed in that gloomy Blood Sea Ancient Tomb for 10 days, which made him retreat from the laissez-faire thoughts he had made before.

After thinking about it for a long time, in the end, it was his sister's safety that prevailed, Ye Zhen quickly packed his backpack, and then went out of Loulan City, summoned a white camel and rushed straight to the Blood Sea Ancient Tomb in the north of Loulan City.

The Ancient Tomb of the Sea of Blood, it is rumored to have been a main battlefield during the period of the Hundred Races Competing for Dominance, and tens of thousands of warriors of all ethnic groups were buried in the ancient tomb, coupled with the various monsters in the ancient tomb, it evolved into a dangerous ancient tomb.

However, a few months ago, the Blood Sea Tomb, which had a chance to drop precious resurrection techniques, had been forcibly opened by tens of thousands of members of the Overlord Guild, and had become a major stronghold of the Overlord Guild, making it impossible for other players to step into it.

Although he had long known that the resurrection technique was expensive, Ye Zhen, who had never been interested in the resurrection technique, did not bother to stir up this troubled water, after all, this kind of closed ancient tomb with thousands of troops and horses guarded, even he did not dare to take it lightly.

However, the situation is different now, with the battle for the fortress begins, no guild dares to arrogantly leave thousands of elites on the field map. There is only one thing they have to fight for now, and that is the border fortress equivalent of a town!

Without the powerful blockade and deterrence of the Overlord Guild, today's ancient tombs can be described as a hundred schools of thought, and the undercurrent is surging. Countless outlaws in the game have flocked to it, hoping to step on shit luck and farm a resurrection spell worth thousands of gold.

It is precisely because of the mixture of fish and dragons that no one side can dominate the ancient tomb, so the current ancient tomb is even more dangerous than when the Overlord Guild blocked it, and if you don't pay attention to it, it may cause disputes, and you will immediately fight for your life.

In his previous life, Ye Zhen had heard that there were several small guilds and some well-known teams that had fought fiercely in the ancient tombs for several days in order to snatch a resurrection technique, with tens of thousands of participants, and the value of the equipment level lost was even several times higher than that of the resurrection technique.

However, no matter how dangerous the ancient tomb is, it still can't resist the ** of those guys who lick blood on the knife all year round, they can betray the team and guild for a skill book, and some can even poison their former brothers, many, many, Ye Zhen has long been numb to it, which is one of the reasons why he does not participate in or organize a fixed team.

It is precisely because of this that Ye Zhen is not worried that his sister will not be able to brush the resurrection technique, what he is afraid of is that if this girl's character breaks out of this book, those guys who have snatched red eyes are likely to destroy the flowers with their hands and forcibly snatch them.

Although Ye Zhen thought that the last incident was very deterrent, in the face of absolute interests, he could not resist robbing without his hands, but he was afraid that there were really few of these outlaws.

The more he thought about it, the more purple the worry on Ye Zhen's face became, and the more uneasy he became.

It wasn't until a sand dune with a black hole appeared in sight that Ye Scar breathed a sigh of relief, quickly put away his mount and stepped in.

The Blood Sea Tomb is actually a tomb buried under the desert, but this tomb is different from the tomb of the first king, the tomb of the first king is only one layer, but this tomb has as many as nine layers, the deeper the tomb, the farther away from the ground means that the higher the number of layers, and the more dangerous the monsters that are refreshed.

The first floor of the ancient tomb.

When Ye Scar stepped into this gloomy tomb from the dazzling sunlight, his eyes narrowed, and he immediately looked around, only to see that the dimly lit continuous cemetery was full of players, and it was not easy to spawn a monster such as a skeleton zombie in the ancient tomb, and in less than five seconds, it would be dismembered by the vicious players.

Since the Overlord Guild withdrew the Blood Sea Ancient Tomb, there are countless players in and out of the ancient tomb every day, so Ye Zhen's ordinary dress has not attracted any attention, and the players on the first floor of the ancient tomb have no intention of caring about the entrants at the entrance, just waiting for the monster on the refresh point to brush out when it will give it the fastest blow, after all, the best way to grab the book is to grab the monster first.

Looking at the spectacular picture in front of him, Ye Zhen couldn't help but shake his head, judging from the reaction speed and damage value of these players, they were just the most ordinary class in the game. Now that they have entered this ancient tomb, players with a little ability will choose to continue to go deeper, rather than staying at the first layer with the lowest resurrection rate and the most snatchers.

"I don't know how that guy from Jiangnan would feel if he saw such a picture?" Looking at the mixed scene in front of him, a narrow smile suddenly appeared at the corner of Ye Zhen's mouth, and then his figure flashed, and he ran towards the second floor.
