127 The end of the auction
After logging out of the game, Zhang Shan took off his gaming helmet.
He would call boss Wu first and ask him if he was really resigning. However, it was still a little early. He should still be at work.
Who cares? he was going to get lost anyway. Even if he was still at work, it should be fine to pick up a call.
The call connected.
“Boss Wu, are you off work yet?”
“Not yet, I’ll be off work soon.”
“Did you tell your boss about your resignation?”
I did. The leader advised me not to leave. He even said that if I think the salary is too low, I can apply for a raise. Hehe.
“F * ck, why didn’t I increase your salary when you didn’t plan to leave? You’re only telling me this when you’re about to leave? are you f * cking kidding me?”
” that’s right. i haven’t had a raise in my salary for two or three years. it’s really enough that i’m only telling you now. ”
“Did they say when I can resign?”
I’ve told the leader to take two days off. I’ll go over to handle the handover after they’ve made the arrangements.
“Aren’t you a factory? don’t they say that factories are like that? you can just pick up a bucket and leave.”
forget it. It doesn’t matter. I won’t delay things. I’ll just go again in two days.
“Alright, the price of our skill book has increased again. It’s already at 150 million, hehe.”
I’ve seen it on the forum. I really didn’t expect the pay-to-win big shots in the New World to be so awesome.
there are a lot of people playing. If there are a lot of people, then there will be all kinds of big shots. It’s not strange.
that’s true. I’m going to get off work soon. I’ll chat with you when I’m online.
after setting an approximate time to go online, he ended the call. Zhang Shan went downstairs to eat, and as usual, strolled around the streets. Being online for a long time had caused him to be tense.
He felt that there was something wrong with his mental state. He had to take more time to go out and walk, just like taking a walk.
After all, people lived in reality. Games could be used as entertainment or work, but they couldn’t really replace reality.
Looking at the time, it was almost time for him to come online.
Zhang Shan returned to his apartment and logged into the game. Not long after, boss Wu also came online.
“Let’s go. After we take a look at the auction, we’ll go and kill some monsters.”
Zhang Shan and boss Wu teleported to the auction house and looked at the progress of the auction. It was still the same as before. The price was fixed at 150 million, and no one else was bidding.
I think we’ve reached our limit. Forget it, we’ve already made a huge profit. Let’s not expect too much.
The auction would continue until 11 pm. Zhang Shan did not want to end the auction early. When the time was up, it would end automatically.
Let’s continue leveling up in the ant Mountain Map.
“Alright, let’s go.”
The two of them teleported to the city gate and started running toward the map of ant mountain.
“Have you told your wife about your resignation?” zhang shan asked boss wu.
“i did. i have to discuss this with her.”
“Your wife didn’t object to it. After all, it sounds a little fake to not work in the future and rely on playing games to make money.”
“She didn’t believe me. I told her that we dropped a skill book and sold it for 100 million, but she didn’t believe me. If she didn’t know you, she would have thought that I was tricked by a scammer, hehe.”
“Does she believe it now?”
“She still doesn’t believe me. I’ve already shown her the forum, but she still doesn’t quite believe me. But even I don’t think it’s real, let alone her. ”
“Don’t worry, it’ll be real when we get the money after the auction.”
unlike zhang shan, boss wu had started playing the game a little late and did not have much knowledge of rich big shots.
After Zhang Shan had seen the “follow my heart” reward, he had a more direct understanding of the rich big shots in the New World.
if a bounty for killing someone could be worth more than 10 million gold coins, then it was not strange for a small target to buy an ultimate skill book.
And when the bounty was set, the exchange rate of gold coins was almost twice as high as now.
With Zhang Shan and the rest’s knowledge as low-level workers, it was difficult for them to understand the way the nouveau riche made money, and they could not understand their view on spending.
It was just like the story:
Two woodcutters were chopping wood. One of the woodcutters asked, ” what do you think the life of an Emperor is like? ”
the other woodcutter said. the emperor was definitely chopping wood with a golden axe.
By the same logic, Zhang Shan and boss Wu were just two woodcutters to the real rich.
Everyone’s wealth and status determined their social circle, and at the same time, it also determined their vision and knowledge.
Although information had been developed to the extreme, it seemed that any information could be obtained by ordinary people through the internet.
However, in reality, everyone could only know what they should know. They would never know what they should not know.
It was just like playing a game, but Feng Yun realm knew more than Zhang Shan.
“How do you plan to spend the money after you get it?” Boss Wu asked Zhang Shan.
let’s buy a house first. We can’t keep renting an apartment. Let’s buy a big villa, the kind near the sea.
“Are you really planning to buy a big villa? You’ll have to spend all the money you’ve just earned, and it might not be enough. You know the house prices in Pengcheng, they’re outrageously expensive.”
I’ve spent all my money. I can earn more in the future. Besides, I don’t have much to spend on after buying a house. I’m single and have nowhere to spend money.
“Don’t you plan to find a girlfriend? You’re not young anymore.”
” i don’t know how to find it. i play games every day. i can’t possibly find it in the game, right? ”
” we can find one in the game. the new world is bound to identity and gender anyway, so we don’t have to worry about running into a transvestite, hehe. ”
Zhang Shan was speechless.
However, he had to seriously consider what kind of life he should lead in the future. After all, he was not young anymore.
Of course, he had the idea of finding a girlfriend. No one wanted to be single for the rest of their life.
Previously, he was too poor, and his salary was only enough to support himself. No matter how much he thought about it, it was useless.
Now that he was in the game, he could be considered to have made some money. Logically speaking, as long as he wasn’t picky, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to find a girlfriend.
However, he didn’t want to have too much of a goal. He would just leave it to fate. Perhaps it would be good to find one in the game.
The two of them chatted as they killed monsters, quietly waiting for the auction to end.
When it was past 11 O ‘clock, Zhang Shan finally received the email informing him that the auction had ended.
[ auction mail: Hello, the invincible slash skill book you auctioned has been successfully sold for 150 million. After deducting the auction handling fee, it is only 100 million. ]
the auction is over. It’s still 150 million. No one else is bidding. We’ll split it equally. I’ll send you the gold coins by mail.
After Zhang Shan had finished speaking to boss Wu, he sent 75 million gold coins to him through email.
okay, thank you, brother. I didn’t expect that we’d be able to make a name for ourselves by playing games after so many years. Life is really unpredictable.
“Yeah, life is unpredictable.”
“Let’s go back to the city and Exchange the gold coins for blue coins?”
well, let’s go back together and withdraw the money. We’ll find time to look for houses in a few days. We’ll settle the problem of accommodation first.
