Apocalypse Gachapon - Chapter 289: Crazy sales
Ye Zhongming knew words were useless for people he didn’t know. People were more practical as this affected their lives. They wouldn’t risk their lives just because you said some things. What they needed was benefits.
Which was why Ye Zhongming thought of a perfect solution.
Sell equipment.
Apart from some stronger factions like Tong Hu’s team, where he had to make a trip, Sha Sha and Brother Bao went to get the other factions.
He used the time to craft vast amounts of equipment.
This was why he raised the point that whoever joined in could purchase potions and equipment from him for a low price.
One-star evolution potion for 70 one-star crystals. Sixty one-star crystals for an immunity potion. One level-two crystal for a piece of grey equipment and a white blade needed 30 level-two crystals! If you didn’t have enough level-two crystals, you could use 20 and a thousand level-one crystals. Or, you could use three level-three crystals to trade.”
After this price was announced, one could imagine the commotion it caused.
Even Brother Bao, Sha Sha, and Tong Hu were tempted.
“Of course, as I have limited potions and equipment, each faction will buy according to how many people they have. With ten people as a unit, each unit can purchase one potion, one immunity potion, and a piece of grey equipment. Every twenty person can purchase one white blade.”
Ye Zhongming looked down and said his rules.
Ye Zhongming had a lot of one-star potions. In the new base and cleaning the area around Cloud Peak, he obtained many one-star potions and level-one crystals. With his overpowered Basic Elimination Technique, he just needed to find a wheel that needed fewer crystals and could get one potion every 50-60 crystals. He was still earning when he sold them for 70 now.
This was even after he sold some during the trading event and used nearly 10 thousand demon crystals on the wheel. If not, the amount of each he had would be far more shocking.
Grey weapons and equipment needed some level-one mutated lifeform materials and mental energy. One level-two crystal was a massive win for him.
Ye Zhongming hesitated about selling the white Moon Edge and then decided.
He wanted to sell because he wanted to tie everyone together with interests. He had to set a low price so these small factions felt like they won. The second reason was because he wanted to earn some money. That was because of his ability. The smith was one of the most profitable jobs. Moreover, although he might not be the only one, he also had the rare elimination technique.
The final reason was that this could increase their strength quickly. This would make them more useful in the upcoming battle, the same as Ye Zhongming helping himself.
Although they got stronger, they were still too weak. The stronger ones, like Brother Bao, his son, Sha Sha, Tong Hu, his wife, and the few elites, were two-star evolved. They needed to work together to kill a level-three lifeform, much less the level-four beings in the three factions. This gap was not something that a grey weapon could make up for.
So, these people had to get weapons that could threaten high-level monsters.
Moon Edge was one of those that had to be traded.
Moreover, from the profits, Moon Edge was among the best earners.
What did he need to craft one Moon Edge? Some metal, mental energy, and a level-two crystal.
The price? Ye Zhongming set it at 30 level-two crystals. Apart from the cost and half success rate, he could earn 28 level-two crystals. After all, metals were everywhere. As for mental strength, he just used a few level-one crystals to heal up.
Were 30 level-two crystals expensive?
Not at all; it was so cheap that it was free.
How much did that white sword go for that day? One thousand level-one crystals; if you traded that for level-two, that was 100!
Ye Zhongming’s price was less than a third!
Moreover, every faction had many level-two crystals to take some out. Burning Rage and Sha Sha Battle Squad needed level-two crystals, but they did have some level-three crystals. They didn’t have enough to spin the level-three wheel but could trade it for white weapons. Just three were needed.
No one expected Ye Zhongming to use such a move to increase the group’s cohesion. But undeniably, it was very useful. Everyone couldn’t wait and wanted to trade for items.
“This is only the start.”
Ye Zhongming’s following words made everyone excited.
“I can’t promise that we can succeed and can’t promise how many of us will survive. But you think about it, even if you don’t join in, which of you aren’t risking your lives every day?”
Those words earned their recognition. Right, it was the apocalypse. People fought to evolve and to eat. They hunted zombies and mutated lifeforms while defending against other humans. All of that needed them to risk their lives. Since they risked their lives, why not try to get more?
“But I can ensure that if we succeed, we will get much more than we have now. Moreover, I use my life to promise that anyone who helps me today will be a friend of Cloud Peak. Potions, equipment, resources, etc., can be bought from me cheaply. When you face problems you can’t solve, you can ask Cloud Peak for help. As long as it doesn’t hurt our interests, I will try my best to help you.”
“That is a promise from me, a three-star evolved, the boss of a faction, a smith.”
Looking at the excited crowd, Ye Zhongming told everyone to raise the prepared equipment for him to sell.
Sha Sha walked over to Ye Zhongming with the Moon Edge she had bought and locked her eyes on his face. She said, “Pervert, I think that even if you don’t take the risk to spin the wheel if you have some time, you will still be the top in Ying City.”
Ye Zhongming smiled.
“Only… Only top in Ying City?”
