Chapter 637 - 466: [Sapphire Satin Sprite] 2
Based on observations in Lanlan Town, if we’re talking about exchange rates, he felt that Cubic Coins were a bit cheaper than Crystal Coins.
But at that time, he had no money with him, so he directly exchanged with the Demon Man owner on-site using an A-level card.
The quality of that A-level card was quite good, but it wasn’t a limited edition on Blue Star. If it were sold in the shop, it could fetch around 20,000 Crystal Coins.
So exchanging it for a Sapphire Satin Demon priced at 15,000 Cubic Coins was actually a loss, like getting a hard cut from that damn Demon Man.
But at that point, it was close to the return deadline, and Yuan Datou didn’t have time to haggle anymore.
Anyway, judging by the eager looks from everyone, he knew he wouldn’t be at a loss.
The Sapphire Satin Demon is bound to sell for over 20,000.
Recouping the cost is easy, but more importantly, it establishes a reputation for selling limited edition Metaverse cards.
In the future, whenever people think of Metaverse cards, they will think of coming to his shop first to buy them.
From this perspective alone, even taking a hit from the Demon Man was worth it.
"10,000?! So cheap!"
Indeed, as soon as the price came out, someone immediately exclaimed at the great deal.
"I bid 15,000, all you poor folks step aside!"
But in the next second, someone increased the price directly by 50%.
"Wow, you jerk, that’s just hiking the price!"
"Exactly, a 500-a-time auction, and you jump 5,000, are you burning money?"
"What do you know, this card is both limited and practical, I must have it!"
"Everyone quiet down, I offer 17,500."
"Damn, 20,000!"
"25,000!"
"Bunch of trash, I bid 30,000!"
Everyone’s bids made Yuan Datou grin from ear to ear.
At 30,000, even selling at this price alone, he’d more than easily recoup the costs and make a 50% profit.
The key is knowing that this is just the beginning.
The wealthy regulars haven’t even started bidding yet.
Especially those XP collectors.
"35,000."
"40,000!"
"50,000."
"60,000!"
When the wealthy regulars started bidding, Yuan Datou felt the true moment of happiness arrive.
The prices were surging up in waves, exceeding his expectations.
In the end, it actually skyrocketed all the way to over 200,000!
At this price, it’s roughly equivalent to a limited edition A-level card.
In and out, it’s like selling a very ordinary A-level card at a limited edition A-level card price!
Why bother finding bugs and reporting to the association?
Isn’t being a card reseller faster money?
"215,000, once."
"215,000, twice."
"215,000, thrice."
"Sold!"
Finally, amidst Yuan Datou’s joyous smile, the deal was finalized.
Selling at an unexpectedly high price, he was very pleased.
The buyer who obtained a card with significant commemorative and practical value was also very happy.
Next, they only needed to exchange card for payment to complete the transaction.
Just then, someone suddenly interrupted.
This person had left, disheartened by the high bidding, but now he returned.
"Quick! Go to Fan Fan Card House!"
"They are also selling Sapphire Satin Demon there, and it’s in wholesale retail style!"
"Each card is only selling for 8,000 Crystal Coins!"
His shout directly interrupted the transaction about to happen.
"8,000?!"
"Holy crap! Quick! Let’s go see!"
"Hahahaha! No way!"
"At that price, I’ve got to buy one too!"
Upon hearing the news, some were stunned, some overjoyed.
215,000 vs 8,000, the price difference was just too huge.
The key was if Fan Fan Card House was indeed wholesaling Sapphire Satin Demon, it meant this card wasn’t a limited edition.
The collectible value would dramatically decrease, thus the price would naturally go down too.
In less than ten seconds, the crowd in the store dispersed, all heading towards Fan Fan Card House.
Leaving only Yuan Datou standing in the hall, completely bewildered.
He still maintained the pose of exchanging card for payment, with the card in his hand, yet the buyer opposite had already scurried off with the crowd.
"......, huh?"
After a few more seconds of daze, Yuan Datou finally started to react.
"No way!"
His face quickly flushed, and with his large round head, he looked a bit like a tomato.
Sapphire Satin Demon retail and wholesale???
Selling for only 8,000 Crystal Coins?!
If that’s the case, having exchanged it for 20,000, wouldn’t he just be a big fool!
...
Fan Fan Card House, inside room.
Listening to the increasingly lively noises outside, Li Fan could already imagine how booming his business was.
Having owned the shop twice, he seems to have never encountered a scene this popular.
"Thanks to you, kid, it seems today’s turnover will hit a record high."
Puffing on a cigarette, he looked across at Li Pu.
"I didn’t expect them to sell so well either."
Li Pu sipped his tea.
After returning from the Metaverse, he realized he might have unlocked some special function.
He could now hold multiple cards even on Blue Star.
This provided even better conditions for creating cards in the future.
For the Sapphire Satin Demon, he kept a few as spares and handed over the remaining 60 cards to Li Fan.
If all sold out, they could earn 480,000 Crystal Coins.
The key was the cards were at zero cost, pure profit.
Once all payments were collected, Li Fan would naturally hand it over to him, no worries there.
Now that the Sapphire Satin Demon issue was settled, the two exchanged their respective experiences and information from there.
Li Pu’s experience, particularly the part in Coiling Dragon Valley, piqued Li Fan’s interest.
Judging by his eager expression, he seemed inclined to try the PVE side of the Metaverse.
As for Li Fan’s experience, it left Li Pu quite speechless, but it was also expected.
Due to frequent harassment of the natives, he quickly incited public anger and was driven out.
However, his direction upon leaving town was opposite to Li Pu’s, heading for another city of supposedly larger scale than Lanlan Town, spending most of that time on the road and yet to arrive.
After exchanging information, Li Pu borrowed Li Fan’s phone to call Ah Yajun, telling him to call Qian Shanshan.
The Imperial University dungeon trip should continue too.
After coordinating that end, Li Pu returned to the university.
The first thing upon return was naturally to seek out Bo Bo and Ugly Little Wolf.
This unexpected start of the Metaverse trip took several days.
When he found Bo Bo and Ugly Little Wolf, they were already covered in filth, obviously having played like crazy.
Especially Bo Bo, looking like a little kangaroo that had tumbled out of a coal heap.
As for Ugly Little Wolf, it should be similar, only its black color concealed the dirt.
Finding them not in the political education office’s jail surprised Li Pu quite a bit.
Apparently, leaving the Scarecrow Leader in the small martial arts realm for training deprived them of their backbone, preventing any major upheaval.
After giving Bo Bo and Ugly Little Wolf a good wash, he took them to the agreed location to meet Qian Shanshan and the others.
Upon arrival at the crystal hall of the dungeon, Li Pu saw the figures of Qian Shanshan and the others from a distance.
"Huh?"
However, he noticed this group seemed different from the team that delved into the previous dungeon.
Wu Guinan, Long Ren, Qian Shanshan, Gu Zhe, Ti Sh and Ti Jiu siblings, the remaining five he didn’t recognize.
The looks greeting him were quite varied.
Long Ren and Wu Guinan’s were grinning, seeming prepared to enjoy the show.
Ti Jiu, who acquired the Gravity Field from him, showed implicit respect.
The few unfamiliar classmates looked on with curiosity.
Whereas Qian Shanshan, Gu Zhe, and Ti Sh displayed resentment, seemingly palpable.
"Today, is this..."
But before Li Pu could finish speaking, Qian Shanshan rushed up and grabbed his collar.
