Chapter 89 The Contractor with Erha
Lin Yi once again stepped into the busy trading square. Looking around, he saw countless contractors walking around, looking for the goods they liked.
The stalls are densely packed and neatly arranged. Behind each stall, there is either a seller sitting, or the stall is empty with only a few options floating in the air, which means the unmanned sales function is turned on.
These unmanned stalls are usually opened by contractors who have returned to the real world.
They left their equipment here, waiting for the right person to come.
Although this method is convenient and fast, and saves the seller the trouble of guarding the stall, a handling fee of up to 5% is required after the transaction.
For those contractors who have plenty of time, this fee is obviously not cost-effective.
Therefore, as long as they have time, they would rather attend the stalls in person and trade with buyers face to face to save this extra cost.
Lin Yi's eyes swept across the stalls, and suddenly, his eyes lit up, and a purple light flickered in the corner of the market.
He had never seen anything of such high quality, not even on his last visit through the market.
In order to verify his guess, Lin Yi sent an inquiry to the Samsara Paradise.
The voice of Samsara Paradise sounded in his mind, confirming his guess.
As his Contractor's Mark level increased to LV5, his authority and vision also expanded, allowing him to now unlock and see these high-quality items.
Lin Yi moved flexibly in the market, and after passing several crowded streets, he arrived at a relatively quiet corner.
The atmosphere here is completely different from the bustling part of the market, and the sparse flow of people allows the stall owners more leisure time.
Most of them sat quietly behind the stalls, busy with their own affairs. Only when potential buyers approached would they look up and show their warm smiles to entertain them.
This atmosphere made Lin Yi feel very comfortable. He could focus more on selling items without being disturbed by the noise around him.
His eyes finally stopped at a particular stall.
Next to this stall, there sat a unique contractor, and beside him was a huge Husky. The unique combination made people want to take a few more glances.
The contractor looked extremely relaxed, completely immersed in his own world.
He held a tablet in his hand, his fingers dancing quickly on the screen, as if he was controlling some exciting game world.
His concentration and dedication are in stark contrast to the other busy stall owners in the market.
"Hello, excuse me, is the stall next to you available for rent?" Lin Yi asked politely.
Lidya Su raised her head from the game on her tablet, her eyes briefly resting on Lin Yi, and then she replied with a cold attitude, "No."
After saying that, he quickly lowered his head and immersed himself in his puzzle game again, as if everything in the outside world had nothing to do with him.
After receiving the reply, Lin Yi submitted an application to Samsara Paradise, hoping to rent the vacant stall.
The next second, Lin Yi received a reply from Samsara Paradise.
After paying the corresponding park coins, he successfully obtained the selling rights of this stall.
A piece of white cloth appeared out of thin air in front of Lin Yi, and he laid out the items he was going to sell one by one:
[Breath of the Moon], [High-level Ghost Bloodline], [Moon Handwoven], [Honey Color Earrings], and [Insect Arrows].
As Lin Yi placed the items one by one, a large amount of blue light suddenly burst out from his stall.
These lights intertwined together to form a dazzling sea of light, attracting the attention of many passers-by.
"Bloodline item! This is a good thing!" A contractor passing by suddenly exclaimed, his eyes fixed on the [Advanced Ghost Bloodline] on Lin Yi's stall.
This exclamation immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding contractors.
As the voice of this contractor spread, more and more contractors were attracted to Lin Yi's stall.
Their eyes were attracted by the bloodline props and other rare items displayed on the stalls, as if these items had irresistible magic.
The atmosphere of the market changed dramatically at this moment.
The contractors who were originally busy with their own work now put down their work and gathered in front of Lin Yi's stall.
The crowd surged like a tide, surrounding the stalls tightly.
They either discussed in low voices the rarity and potential value of bloodline items, or secretly assessed their own financial resources and purchasing power.
"Demon blood? It doesn't seem to be very strong. It even has weaknesses." A girl who looked somewhat naive said hesitantly. She seemed to be very interested in the demon blood, but was worried that its side effects would bring her trouble.
After hearing what she said, her teammates couldn't help but give her a light slap on the head and said with a smile: "Nonsense! If there is no weakness, can you afford the price of this thing? Besides, don't you see what the item next to the bloodline is."
As he spoke, he pointed to a conspicuous bottle of wisteria flower extract on the stall.
This extract is only marked as a white item in the item database of the Samsara Paradise, and the introduction is also extremely concise: it can help evil spirits improve their bloodline, and there is a certain probability that a person can be restored to a human body.
This seemingly inconspicuous white prop seems extremely precious at this moment.
For those who purchased the blood of the devil, wisteria flower extract has become an indispensable accessory. They are willing to pay a high price to ensure that they will not be troubled by potential side effects when using the power of blood.
Therefore, although the quality of wisteria flower extract is not high, its actual value in the market far exceeds its superficial rating.
"10,000."
"15,000."
"30,000."
Compared with the highly-watched high-level ghost blood, the green-quality low-level ghost blood unexpectedly gained more favor among the onlookers.
These people are mainly retail contractors who have a clear understanding of their own financial resources and strength.
They understood that high-end blue-quality items were too expensive for them to afford.
Therefore, these retail contractors are more inclined to choose green quality props that are moderately priced and highly practical.
Such props can not only meet their usage needs, but also will not bring too much burden to their finances.
As the bidding gradually increased, when the price exceeded 40,000 Paradise Coins, the voices of bidding around decreased significantly.
This price is close to the upper limit of retail contractors' psychological expectations. They are beginning to become more cautious and no longer bid easily.
It is worth mentioning that if it were not for the fact that Lin Yi's stall provided wisteria flower extract that could solve the side effects of ghost blood, the price of low-level ghost blood would probably not even reach 30,000 Paradise Coins.
The existence of wisteria flower extract undoubtedly adds a lot of value to the bloodline of low-level ghosts.
Finally, after a fierce bidding, an adventurer holding a spear successfully purchased the green-quality low-level ghost blood and wisteria flower extract for 44,500 Paradise Coins.
This price was obviously beyond his limit, and his hands were shaking as he paid, showing how serious and nervous he was about this purchase.
The two pieces of equipment, [Moon Handwoven] and [Honey Color Earrings], did not wait too long at Lin Yi's stall and were quickly bought by the contractors who knew the value of the goods.
These two pieces of equipment brought Lin Yi a total of 120,000 Paradise Coins in revenue. This price far exceeded Lin Yi's original expectations, and made him deeply feel that selling to the contractors was indeed much more cost-effective than selling to the Chamber of Commerce.
As the items on the stall gradually decreased, the surrounding contractors gradually dispersed with some regret and reluctance.
They understood that the remaining three items were valuable and beyond the purchasing power of retail investors like them.
The hustle and bustle of the market receded like the tide, and Lin Yi's stall also returned to its normal state in this tranquility.
At this moment, the owner of the stall next door suddenly asked.
"How much is the [Breath of the Moon] on your stall?"
Lin Yi looked in the direction of the voice and found that the person speaking was Su Xiao, who had been immersed in the game.
At some point, he had put away the tablet in his hand and was concentrating on the [Breath of the Moon] on his stall.
"If you need it, 80,000 Paradise Coins will be enough." Lin Yi gave a relatively fair price.
Most of the blue equipment on the market costs around 50,000 to 60,000 Paradise Coins, and his [Breath of the Moon] is a complete skill scroll, which is far superior to ordinary blue equipment in terms of rarity and practicality, so the slightly higher price is reasonable.
Su Xiao frowned slightly after hearing the price.
He counted the Paradise Coins in his inventory. Although they were enough to pay for the skill scroll, he still needed to consider the next skill upgrade and progress in the next world.
For him, every expenditure of park coins needs to be carefully calculated.
"It's a little expensive." Su Xiao said after pondering for a moment.
It's not that he can't afford the price, but he hopes to save resources as much as possible while ensuring the development of his own strength.
"Take a look at this thing. What do you think? If possible, use it to pay off your debt."
Su Xiao thought for a moment and decided to conduct the transaction through barter.
He took out two pieces of white plasticine from his arms and handed them to Lin Yi.
After Lin Yi took it, the reminder sound of Samsara Paradise came.

After Lin Yi carefully read the introduction of [Alchemical Bomb], he couldn't help but secretly praised "Good stuff!" in his heart.
This prop is simply an excellent weapon for assassins.
