Chapter 291: Blind Trade
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Yuan stood at the window in the guest house’s room while watching the falling snow outside.
The frequency of snow in the Royal Capital wasn’t high. Lin Yuan had been training in the controlled Class 3 abyss dimensional rift, so he wasn’t sure if this was the first snow in the Royal Capital for this year.
But as a child that grew up in the Redbud City’s Xia Region, it had been an entire lifetime since he had last seen snow.
Lin Yuan opened the window and stretched out his hand.
The initial snow wasn’t cold. When the snow landed on his palm, Lin Yuan merely felt a slight chill before it vanished.
After the phone call with Chu Ci, Lin Yuan felt that he hadn’t made proper arrangements.
It was impossible for Lin Yuan not to feel sad that he couldn’t celebrate the new year with Chu Ci. But when Lin Yuan recalled the time he told his master, the Moon Empress, that he was going for a training trip, he had never thought of the fact that he was a junior and should have a reunion dinner with his master.
There was just around a month before the new year. During his training at the abyss dimensional rift, Lin Yuan felt that he already had enough gains for this trip.
Therefore, Lin Yuan planned to return to the Royal Capital before the new year. He would return to the Radiant Moon Palace to celebrate with his master.
During the past few days, Lin Yuan had been sorting things in the guest house. At the same time, he had placed the Flower Brocade Pearls on sale in his Purchase With No Loss store.
These Flower Brocade Pearls that would make Creation Masters go insane weren’t immediately sold. Only ten pots were put in the store for display.
Lin Yuan understood that if he wanted to use these ten pots of Flower Brocade Pearls to obtain greater benefits, he would need to attract the eyes of more Creation Masters.
Lin Yuan spent quite a bit of effort to transact these ten pots of Flower Brocade Pearls. He chose to transact all ten pots by trading.
As for the things to trade with, Lin Yuan picked all the rare flames that were produced in the abyss dimensional rifts.
This time, Lin Yuan didn’t choose the trade partner. Instead, he used the Star Web’s blind trade method.
Any buyer who wanted to purchase the Flower Brocade Pearls could prepare their own rare flame as a bargaining chip to conduct a blind auction. After a certain period of time, the top ten buyers who offered the rarest flames would each obtain one of the Flower Brocade Pearls.
This blind trade method was one of the most grueling trade methods. Because no one would know what was the price the other buyers would offer. Therefore, they could only desperately push up their offer price.
However, if they desperately pushed up the price and obtained the Flower Brocade Pearls, they might be offering too much and end up with a loss.
But for the blind trade of the Flower Brocade Pearls, Lin Yuan didn’t just put up one stalk. He put up ten stalks. It meant that the top ten buyers of the blind trade would be able to obtain one stalk of the Flower Brocade Pearls no matter what price they offered.
Since Lin Yuan’s Purchase With No Loss store used the Star Web’s official channel to conduct the blind trade, it meant that it was absolutely fair.
When Lin Yuan decided to use this method of trade, he already knew that the ten stalks of Flower Brocade Pearls would definitely be able to trade for plenty of rare flames. After all, it was extremely rare for the Flower Brocade Pearls to appear on the market.
The customers for Flower Brocade Pearls were Creation Masters, a small group of people in the world with the most wealth and resources.
Of course, Lin Yuan did think about using Flower Brocade Pearls to exchange for Elemental Shellfish, but Flower Brocade Pearls’ price couldn’t be compared with Elemental Shellfish. Therefore, Lin Yuan could only dismiss the idea.
If he was to issue such trade information, even if his Star Web store could bring out a massive quantity of Flower Brocade Pearls, his store would still become a joke, and people would say that ‘His ambition is just like how a snake wishes to swallow an elephant’.
According to the price, 20 stalks of Flower Brocade Pearls would be equivalent to one Elemental Shellfish, but the trade of feys would never be measured with quantity over value.
Take, for example, a person who had plenty of glass that was of the same value as a jade. Naturally, no one would be willing to use a superior jade to exchange for a bunch of shattered glass.
Therefore, Lin Yuan had to think of other ideas to trade for the Elemental Shellfish.
As the Flower Brocade Pearls had been displayed on Lin Yuan’s Purchase With No Loss store for a few days, it had attracted attention from a large number of Creation Masters. Among them were a few Class 4 Creation Masters.
The Flower Brocade Pearls might be rare, but when at the level of a Class 4 Creation Master, it wasn’t difficult to obtain the Flower Brocade Pearls. However, the Flower Brocade Pearls were truly rare resources. Even if a Class 4 Creation Master possessed them, they would still wish to stock up more.
The usefulness of a Flower Brocade Pearls to a Creation Master was the dew pearls that were secreted by the Flower Brocade Pearls’ leaves. However, each of the Flower Brocade Pearls could only produce a limited amount of dew pearls.
If a Class 4 Creation Master had more Flower Brocade Pearls, they wouldn’t need to think of saving or distributing the dew pearls when they were concocting a spirit fluid.
When Lin Yuan put up the ten stalks of Flower Brocade Pearls on his Purchase With No Loss store, the Star Web experienced a commotion that was almost like a small-scaled auction at the Rare Lifeform Pavilion.
Lin Yuan hadn’t upgraded his Purchase With No Loss store, so it was still a Class 1 store. But the surface area of a Class 1 store was already sufficient for Lin Yuan.
After all, Lin Yuan was walking on a path of premium merchandise instead of general merchandise.
Lin Yuan had only opened the Purchase With No Loss store for a few months, but the reputation and points that the store had accumulated were enough for it to upgrade to a Class 3 store. It was only one step away from becoming a Class 4 store.
If Lin Yuan didn’t limit the supply of Elite Spirit-Siphon Goldfish and Silver Usneas, the Purchase With No Loss store would have been able to upgrade to a Class 4 store.
Lin Yuan had only been operating the store for a few months, so he hadn’t really put much thought into the store.
It was needless to talk about the reputation as it was already catching up to Zhou Jiaxin’s store, which she had been running for close to ten years with all her efforts.
Previously, when Lin Yuan’s Class 1 store had announced that source-type items and Day and Night Spirit Silver could be used to exchange for any Bronze/Epic feys, the fame of the store was already through the roof.
Now with the display of the ten stalks of Flower Brocade Pearls, Lin Yuan’s Class 1 store might still be small, but it was already a premium store that had the most attention on Star Web.
Lin Yuan couldn’t help lamenting. If he was in his previous world, his Star Web store should be considered a celebrity store!
