Chapter 156: Maniac
Chapter 156: Maniac
Looking at Xiao Tian and Chen Bing’s levels, Feng Xiao’s eyes couldn’t help lighting up as he said with a sigh, “Not bad, you’re already level 32. The ones on the level rankings were only around level 35, right?”
“Un, ice cube has acted like he was on steroids after he got those things from you and his attack has become very fierce. It can even compare to me, so our leveling speed has gone up.”
Chen Bing’s white face twitched as he couldn’t help feeling the impulse to hit his face.
Xiao Tian’s expression changed as his eyes suddenly lit up, “But boss……you’re actually level 42! You don’t know this, but the forums have exploded! Your fans have exploded even more and almost everyone with a bit of power is trying to find a Hidden Job like you. Right, boss, the Asura’s Reverse Scale on the equipment ranking should be yours, right?”
Feng Xiao nodded and after a thought, the black dragon scaled gauntlets appeared on his hands.
Xiao Tian’s drool came out as he wished that he could have this Asura’s Reverse Scale that had stats that went against the heavens.
“Rou Rou, Ruo Ruo, I’ll be going out first with Xiao Tian and Xiao Bing. I’ll be back soon, so wait for me.” Feng Xiao gave the “Spiritual Wood Seed” to Xi Ruo before patting her little hand and then heading to the “Popular World” store.
“Maniac, how has business been lately?” Seeing the spacious shelves, Feng Xiao asked with a voice of anticipation.
“The shop has sold around 138 pieces of level 30 to level 35 Silver Equipment and earned 480000 gold coins. The auction house has auctioned eighteen level 35 Gold Equipment in three auctions, earning a profit of 1.4 million from tickets and 4.2 million from sales. The restaurant has recruited all its cooks and service staff, so it’s fully functioning right now and it’s filled up every day. Ingredients cost around 250000 gold coins a day and other costs are around 120000 gold coins a day, so the net income is around 3.5 million. That is just the beginning and it should increase in the future.”
Maniac gave off all this data without even blinking and then added, “The Heavenly Dragon Palace has said that ‘Popular World’ doesn’t need to pay any taxes, so this is all without taxes.”
Not having to pay taxes, how much money that saved! Feng Xiao suddenly felt that old man Fang really was lovable.
“Maniac, hold more auctions when you have time. There are too many things to auction off.” Feng Xiao opened his inventory and took out a bunch of Gold Equipment. There were over a hundred of them, as well as a bunch of high grade cooking ingredients.
Xiao Tian’s eyes almost popped out when he saw this.
Maniac gave a soft reply before organizing the equipment and materials in front of him.
“There’s also these five broken tokens, you can appraise them and then sell them. Un, they should be able to sell for quite a bit of money.” The five black tokens were also traded to Maniac.
Xiao Tian pinched himself several times before saying in a difficult voice, “Boss……those five wouldn’t……all be Guild Formation Tokens, right?”
Feng Xiao was very satisfied with Xiao Tian’s reaction and laughed a few times, “Right, they are all Guild Formation Tokens! Un, right, Xiao Tian, this Golden Wolf Set is yours. They are a set with the Golden Wolf Fang Sword that you currently have, so it should give you a stat bonus.”
Xiao Tian was speechless. He looked at Feng Xiao like he was looking at a monster, but he didn’t hesitate at all to take the Golden Wolf Set.
If he knew that Feng Yao still had over a hundred pieces of Gold Equipment, as well as there being many that were destroyed during appraisal or couldn’t be taken away, it was unknown how he would have felt.
There were currently only four guilds in the Chinese Server, the Loving Wind Pavilion, the Demon Wolf Gang, the Heavenly Demon Guild, and the Soul Destroyer Guild. These five Guild Formation Tokens would decide the final spot on the guild ranking, so it would attract the attention of the guilds that hadn’t gotten one yet.
Feng Xiao gave another laugh before bringing out ten more pieces of equipment covered in red and white light.
Putong! Xiao Tian’s head fell to the ground.
My god, how can people even survive like this?
“Xiao Tian, Xiao Bing, come and take the equipment that you need, especially rings and necklaces.”
Each player could equip a necklace, a pair of earrings, and two rings. Feng Xiao didn’t plan on changing out his rings his entire life and although his Protection Chain didn’t have any stats, it was an important protection charm. As for earrings that all increased magic attack, they didn’t have any meaning to him.
Xiao Tian and Xiao Bing naturally weren’t polite with Lin Fan. Both of them chose three pieces of equipment that were around level 40 and were all Spiritual or Immortal Grade Equipment. Any one of these would be able to make any normal player rich.
“Xiao Tian, Xiao Bing, let’s go level. You should be able to get some experience now.” When Feng Xiao was about to leave, he suddenly stopped and went over to pat Maniac on the shoulder, “Maniac, work hard. After these things are turned to RMB, your plan can start sooner.”
Maniac’s body trembled as his deathly silent expression finally showed some changes and excited tears came out. He slowly kneeled down in front of Feng Xiao after a long time and said in a choked voice, “Young master Feng……thank you!”
Feng Xiao helped him up and gave a sigh before leaving with Xiao Tian and Xiao Bing.
The weak looking man with the glasses, a wrinkled face, and white hair, no one would have believed that he was only thirty years old.
No one would have recognized him as the terrifying stock god who had played with the Japanese stock market in just a single month, no one would have recognized him as the god of finances that once shocked the world, no one would have recognized him as the rare, versatile, and monstrous genius who once made all his enemies in economics tremble!
Everyone thought that he had died, but he didn’t die. He had been pulled back from the abyss of death by Feng Xiao. This handsome and scholarly man had changed, becoming a complete maniac.
He was a maniac who only survived for revenge!
……
On the way, Feng Xiao gave them a summary of him killing one hundred and thirty six Gold Bosses during the Shennong Cauldron trial which shocked the two of them.
“Boss, this is Xiao Bing and I have been leveling. Normally there are many people leveling here and many people stealing mobs, but we remembered boss’ guidance and endured it. The map in front is the territory of the level 45 Giant Fang Beasts, no one has dared to go there yet.” Xiao Tian seriously introduced the empty map. When he spoke of stealing mobs, his face couldn’t help revealing a vicious look. For an arrogant person like him, enduring was something that really was hard.
“Other than that, there’s a piece of news that boss should be interested in. It’s that ‘Madame Proud Moon’ girl that boss wanted me to find, she normally levels in this place.”
“Madame Proud Moon?” Feng Xiao’s brows visibly raised.
“Let’s go, Xiao Tian. Perhaps we’ll be lucky enough to bump into her.”
