World of Warcraft Murloc City Guide - Chapter 346
c346 Bai Xiaotong is a talent
At the entrance of the Thunder Bluff Auction House’s big tent, there was a middle-aged man in a white shirt walking back and forth among the crowd, constantly bowing his head to sell papers in his hands to people attending the auction.
But the market was very bad, and not a single piece of paper in the hands of the middle-aged man was sold.
The middle-aged man was very frustrated. He came to the bulletin board dejectedly.
At this time, the figure of a golden fish-man came into the middle-aged man’s eyes, and his eyes lit up.
Discover the wrongdoer.
No, we found potential customers.
The middle-aged man regained his composure and pushed towards the golden fish-man.
“Dear Mayor Poseidon, it is really inconsistent with your distinguished status to be crowded in the crowd. I have a transcribed list of auction items here. Each one only costs 1 silver coin. Do you want one?” The middle-aged man asked Yang Yi said.
Yang Yi turned around and looked at the middle-aged man talking to him, feeling that he seemed a little familiar.
He used the Lord’s Eye to look at the other person’s name and remembered it immediately.
Bai Xiaotong, isn’t this a colleague who makes money by translating for others at crossroads?
Yang Yi and this adventurer named Bai Xiaotong can indeed be regarded as peers. He came up with the way to make money by translating emails for people after being inspired by Bai Xiaotong.
It seems that just like the business of making money by translating emails is getting less and less, as more and more adventurers master the language of the Azeroth world, it is not easy to make money from Bai Xiaotong’s translation work, and they are all switching to copying and auctioning. List now.
Selling a transcribed auction list for 1 silver is a bit expensive. After all, hiring a low-level mercenary from the mercenary guild only costs 1 or 2 silver coins a day.
There are not many people who control the resources of a small town like Yang Yi, and they always use gold coins as the unit.
If you want to know the auction information, you can just go to the bulletin board and read the list yourself. Although this is a little troublesome, it doesn’t cost money. No wonder no one patronizes Bai Xiaotong’s business.
When Bai Xiaotong saw that Yang Yi was silent, he quickly stepped up his sales offensive. “How about I make it cheaper for you, a 15% discount. This paper and ink are valuable. I used a whole bottle of ink to copy one copy, and I sold it at the cost price.”
Yang Yi’s silence was not because he was hesitating about the price, he was just using his skills to check Bai Xiaotong’s information.
After coming back to his senses, Yang Yi reached out and touched his money bag, took out a silver coin and threw it to Bai Xiaotong.
“The discount is inconsistent with my identity. I will take 1 silver coin.” Yang Yi said.
“The boss is awesome.”
Bai Xiaotong happily accepted the silver coins and handed a copied auction list to Yang Yi.
The reason why Yang Yi bought Bai Xiaotong’s list was firstly to “thank” this colleague for bringing him a way to make money by translating emails, and secondly because he really felt that his status was not suitable for being crowded in the crowd.
Yang Yi’s golden fish-man appearance is very conspicuous, and many adventurers recognize him. He was squeezed into the crowd, and from time to time adventurers would come to get close to him, and those with weak hands would secretly reach behind and touch his dorsal fin. Who could bear this?
“With my status as a lord, I still need to be a bit grand when I go out. Bringing a few followers will not only attract attention, but also save a lot of trouble.” Yang Yi thought to himself.
With the transcribed auction list, Yang Yi didn’t need to look at the bulletin board. He went directly into the big tent of the auction house.
The auction house was bustling with activity.
Yang Yi took a glance and found that there were several tauren auctioneers alone, and there were countless people participating in the auction, with adventurers accounting for the majority.
Yang Yi first found the auctioneer who was auctioning consumables and stood outside the crowd to watch.
The order of item auctions is from low to high quality. The first items to be auctioned are ordinary quality items like [Delicious Wind Snake].
There are not many auction items of ordinary quality. After all, most items of this quality are worthless.
Soon after, it was the bidding turn for the [Delicious Wind Snake].
Originally, Yang Yi was worried that the price of 10 silver for [Delicious Wind Snake] was a bit too high, and he was afraid that no one would bid.
Unexpectedly, when the auctioneer called out [Delicious Wind Snake], there were immediately people bidding, and the competition was very fierce.
Yang Yi was overjoyed. He observed and found that the bidders were basically adventurers.
It seems that what Slak said is right, [Delicious Wind Snake] is very popular among adventurers.
Judging from the intensity of the bidding, it was more popular than expected.
In the end, [Delicious Wind Snake] was bought by a wealthy adventurer at a price of 1 gold each, which was 10 times the starting price of 10 silver set by Yang Yi!
“1 gold each, 100 is 100 gold! I never thought that the lake in the backwater oasis would be a big treasure. Every [mutated fish] swimming in the lake has shining gold coins.” Yang Yi was overjoyed.
[Delicious Wind Snake] has a recipe that has been circulated for a long time, indicating that the use of [Mutated Fish] is not unknown.
But the problem is that [mutated fish] are only found in the three oases in the Barrens, and these three oases have long been occupied by the Kokar centaurs. The fierce Kokar Centaur regards almost everyone as an enemy, so people cannot obtain [Mutated Fish] and cannot make [Delicious Wind Snake].
Now the other two oases are still under the control of the Kokar Centaur. Only the backwater oasis produces [Mutated Fish]. No wonder the [Delicious Wind Snake] was snapped up by adventurers as soon as it came out.
This is what makes things rare.
[Delicious Wind Snake] As soon as the auction was over, Yang Yi ran to the auction house manager and happily took out the money. It was just the auction commission of 10 gold coins that made him feel pain for a while.
Then Yang Yi came to the jewelry auction area.
The four types of pearls that Yang Yi consigned for auction were all of excellent quality. There were the largest number of jewelry of this quality at the auction. He only put the items on the auction house today, so he was ranked very far back in the bidding.
Judging from the situation, it will take a while to finish all the filming.
Yang Yi was not in a hurry.
The 90 gold from the auction of [Delicious Wind Snake], plus the money obtained from selling [Bramble Algae] and [Living Root Grass] before, brought the number of gold coins in his wallet to more than 100.
With this money, Yang Yi plans to bid for herbal medicines first.
[Blind Grass] and [Ghost Mushroom] both appear on the auction list.
Yang Yi was very lucky. There were not many people competing with him. He spent a total of 55 gold coins to take photos of both herbs.
After paying the money and taking the herbs, Yang Yi returned to the jewelry auction area.
The bidding for [Small Glossy Pearls] and [Colored Pearls] has ended. There is no big surprise. These two pearls, which are not considered rare, did not fetch a high price. They were sold at almost the starting price.
There are also [Black Pearl] and [Golden Pearl] that haven’t started filming yet.
Yang Yi was waiting outside the crowd. He looked at the auction list he bought from Bai Xiaotong to see if there was any suitable equipment.
The equipment on the auction list is the most numerous item and the one that attracts the most attention.
Yang Yi looked at it for a while and became dazzled because there were so many types of equipment and they were too complicated.
Weapons alone are divided into daggers, gloves, one-handed axes, one-handed hammers, one-handed swords, polearms, staffs, two-handed axes, two-handed hammers, two-handed swords, bows, crossbows, spears, throwing weapons and wands.
Weapons are okay. If you choose one that you usually use easily, you can eliminate a lot of them.
Armor is more complex than weapons. First of all, the protective gear worn by various parts of the body includes cloth armor, leather armor, mail armor, and plate armor. Then there are also cloaks, off-hands, shields, necklaces, rings, jewelry, statues, and saints. Contract, totem…
For Yang Yi, who had never done any homework, he didn’t know where to start with so much equipment.
Yang Yi was so confused that he simply rolled up the auction list in his hand and planned to put it in his bag first.
“Hey, there are words on the back of the paper.”
After Yang Yi rolled up the auction list, he suddenly discovered that there was writing on the back.
Curious, he reopened the auction list and turned to the back.
“These words are not the lingua franca of Azeroth, but Earth and Star characters. They seem to be novels translated by Bai Xiaotong. Probably because the paper is too expensive and I don’t want to throw away the used paper, so I used the other side to copy the auction list. ”
With nothing to do, Yang Yi simply read a novel.
The novel has no beginning. To be precise, the beginning should be written on another piece of paper.
(“So, just like that, I was surrounded by at least a hundred fishmen!” The man with a thick beard emphasized by drawing a long arc with his hand.
The tawny tauren gasped in surprise. “Then how did you solve it?” Even her voice had a strong brown tone.
“I have no other choice, dear.” Marcus patted the sword lying on his lap, “I can only execute them all on the spot!”)
What bullshit is written? A human being is surrounded by at least a hundred murlocs, and ends up killing the murlocs. This plot clearly discriminates against murlocs.
Yang Yi was unhappy, but he continued to read.
(Tanda smiled pretending to be dignified, blinking her long eyelashes vigorously. She picked up a piece of cheese and brought it to Marcus’s lips: “Try this, I made it myself.”
The handsome paladin stammered, “N-no way. I’m, uh, lactose intolerant.”
Tanda put the cheese back into the bowl. “Oh, are you sure? You mean you can’t stand me?” The plump tauren stepped forward and stood face to face with Marcus. The huge height difference shocked his face. Because his sight was blocked, he had to wave his arms to resist, but he could only touch her solid back – his vague apology only made the minotaur woman laugh uncontrollably, and she hugged him tighter. )
Human male and tauren female, this is kind of exciting.
(Just when his other hand touched her tail, the light dimmed, and a tall figure appeared at the door. “What…”
Tanda exclaimed, “Bacchus, no!”
Marcus turned his head, gasping for air, and looked at the angry-eyed tauren. “You misunderstood!”)
Oops, it’s actually the plot of Lao Wang Next Door.
Yang Yi watched with gusto.
Next, the human old king and the tauren cuckold king started fighting.
(Tanda raises her hind legs high and stamps them down with thunderous force. The man and the bull tremble in unison, obviously stunned. “Stop it, both of you!”
Marcus calmed down, looked at Tanda, and then at Bacchus. The hair on their bodies was messy, and their naked and rough skin was glistening with sweat. Just as they stared at each other, the handsome Marcus spoke: “Well, since we are almost naked…”)
Come on, this plot twist is the legendary “we three, one family” fairy tale?
One human, two tauren, forbidden love, wild passion.
No, no one really likes to watch such heavy-flavored dramas.
There are so many books in the world of Azeroth. The adventurer named Bai Xiaotong actually chose to translate this kind of novel. He is really a talent.
According to the development of the story, the next step is to connect humans and cows.
New knowledge, all new knowledge.
In order to learn, Yang Yi must continue reading.
However, the story ends here because the last line of the entire paper has been written.
