“This kind of labor—I want to do it too!”

“Do you know how much this type of Enhancement Potion is worth on the market?”

Seeing the skeptical smile on Feng Luo’s face, Sister widened her eyes .

“Hmm? One should be able to fetch 200, 300 credits . Since it’s a long-term potion that can increase bodily attributes, there’s no way nobody will be willing to offer a price for it . ”

Feng Luo thought for a while and offered a relatively conservative price .

“Not bad . At least 200, 300 credits each . But only if it’s released all at once!”

“If the advertisement and operation are well done and it is sold little by little with a small release each time, then the price would double, at the very least . It would even be possible to fetch 10,000 credits with the first batch of sales!”

“You’re not satisfied even with this price?” Sister Rui said, looking at Feng Luo . “If even this is unsatisfactory, I’d rather trade myself…”

Feng Luo coughed, revealing his awkwardness . Why did it sound a little biased? But Sister Rui had not noticed any problem in what she’d said .

He said in a straightforward manner, “The price is considerable, but the quantity is limited . Lin had told me before that for this type of potion, currently only around 100 are manufactured per month . ”

Feng Luo had stated the biggest problem . Any version of the newest, hottest, Rare-grade items would have had a limit imposed by the system . The recipe of this type of potion comprises many rare materials, as stated in the list given to him by Lin . There were, amusingly, even unique “Rare materials” like his “blood” included in it .

Although players could use blood tonics to recover HP, the system would not have let him use this loophole . The system had stated before that this kind of blood withdrawal could withstand, at most, only 1000 milliliters per month . If not, it would cause HP and other attributes to decline .

In fact, this type of supply from raw materials was limited, just like the Eye of the Thunder he had made himself . It was considered to be a balance of the quantities of rare items made by the system . Only when there was a new version or at the end would the limit be removed .

“Right . Speaking of the Eye of the Thunder…” Feng Luo suddenly remembered something . “Sister Rui, since your Huan Yu Company has had many auctions in War… I thought of something else . Please help to arrange its publicity . See if you can enter it in the nearest auction as soon as possible .

Feng Luo thought about the 3,000 credits, still a little troubled .

“Hmm? What is it?” Sister Rui asked .

“This!”

Feng Luo fished out his own Eye of the Thunder from his backpack, showing its attributes to Sister Rui .

“Hey, this sniper rifle’s attributes are really good . The rare attributes are also outstanding, and it’s even a super-scarce Level-45 Perfect Rare piece of equipment!”

Sister Rui’s attention was sparked . She studied the Eye of the Thunder in Feng Luo’s hand and touched the gun body, which was sparkling as if with electrical current .

“Hmm,” she said . “Let me explain it to you . Publicize it well, and you could probably sell it for 70,000 or 80,000 credits at Storm City’s big auction in a month, or perhaps even up to 100,000 credits!”

“Sister Rui, you didn’t understand what I meant…” Feng Luo said with a smile, looking into her eyes .

“Hmm?” Sister Rui’s forehead creased as she looked at Feng Luo . Her blue eyes flashed with confusion .

“I am a Gun Mechanic!” Feng Luo said, raising a hand and pointing to the “Creator” column of the rifle’s attributes . “I made this rifle myself!”

“You made it?” Looking at the ID in the Creator column, surprise appeared once more in Sister Rui’s eyes . “Oh, right, I saw your name written in the Creator column just now . But my attention was all on the rifle attributes, so I didn’t take note . Little Feng! So, you actually are an Expert Gun Mechanic . Never thought that your Life Profession grade could be so high—even creating a Perfect-grade Rare sniper rifle! Wait… Perfect-grade!”

Sister Rui finally came to the realization and immediately stared at Feng Luo, unable to hide the surprise in her eyes .

“Little Feng, you mean… this Eye of the Thunder sniper rifle . You can mass produce it?”

The volume of her voice had risen! Sister Rui was right to be surprised . For an equipment intermediary auction company like hers, there was a reliance on high-grade Life Profession players and Life-type NPCs . Regardless of whether it was the Huan Yu Company or the Starry Sky Company, the vital strategic resources they fought over were the Life Profession players and the NPCs . As only high-grade Life players could surely and successfully provide all kinds of superior equipment, special potions, and other items, they were highly essential to companies that specialized in rare item intermediary and auctions .

Although there were fewer individuals among the high-end players who chose to be Snipers, there was still great auctioning value for the Eye of the Thunder due to its superb attributes . More importantly, there were thousands of high-grade and above Gun Mechanic players who had business partnerships with Huan Yu Company, but there was no Gun Mechanic Master who could manufacture this type of Level 40 and higher Rare sniper rifle .

This was true not only for the Huan Yu Company but also for the Starry Sky Company! Therefore, being able to mass produce the Eye of the Thunder would be a trump card in competing with the Starry Sky Company on the high-end market, just like the W-virus Enhancement Potion .

“Little Feng, you’re really my lucky charm,” Sister Rui exclaimed to Feng Luo . “The company’s business has been controlled by Starry Sky Company in Storm City before . That’s why I took over this region, but there has never been a good solution . Now, with the Enhancement Potion and this Rare sniper rifle—two high-end items that can be mass produced—we, Huan Yu, could definitely at least compete with Starry Sky Company in the Storm City Region!”

“If Sister Rui needs, I can give the subsequent right of sales of the Eye of the Thunder to you all . But, Sister Rui, I hope that you can sell out the first batch of the Eye of the Thunder as soon as possible!”

“Why? So, you are in need of money?” Sister Rui said, looking at Feng Luo .

“Yeah,” Feng Luo explained with a sheepish smile . “Opening a business requires investment capital, this request…”

At first, he thought that with the Eye of the Thunder, he would be able to escape the “peasant” class and spend freely . But, looking at the situation now, there was not enough money again!

After all, regardless of whether it was the Eye of the Thunder or the Enhancement Potion, fetching high quantities of credits was not the net profit—the cost of the capital had to first be subtracted .

It was important to note that the cost of Rare-grade equipment itself was not low . In order to accumulate the material for the Eye of the Thunder these days, Feng Luo had almost completely spent all his credits, while his extra equipment had also had all been put up at the Exchange . Even some of the products in the ammunition store had been cleared out by the low prices .

Therefore, to him, the 30,000,000 credits worth of investment capital he’d put in with Lin had to reap sales returns from the Eye of the Thunder!

He had initially intended to make contact before entering into a partnership with “Green Plum Boiled Wine,” Starry Sky Company’s sales assistant in Storm City whom he was familiar with . But Sister Rui was from the Huan Yu Company and was also Storm City Region’s (including Storm City and the subordinate cities like Silvermoon City) person-in-charge .

Therefore, obviously, dealing directly with Sister Rui would be best .
