Chapter 2463
Zhao Chi was mainly waiting for the White Tiger Regiment's reward for Li Ruanyu — it should be a sizable sum.
When the time comes, there should be a huge amount of income.
White Tiger Regiment commander Yao Feng is Li Ruanyu's instructor, and now also her direct superior.
From various signs, it can be confirmed that their relationship is quite good.
The White Tiger Regiment shouldn't let Li Ruanyu work for nothing.
But the commendation ceremony is the day after tomorrow, so there's still a wait. For today, first buy up all the cheap Speed-Work Talismans in the exchange.
After all, the quantity isn't that large.
After Zhao Chi filtered out the Speed-Work Talismans, he found there were only 66,911.
Most prices were between 50 and 60 silver coins.
There were also some cheap ones at 40 silver coins, a few hundred or so, not too many.
Of course, there were also several thousand priced very high, even daring to sell for several gold coins.
There were also a few hundred outrageously priced at dozens of gold coins — no idea what they were thinking.
These can naturally be weeded out.
In the end, 55,000 priced under 70 silver coins were filtered out, and there were also 6,000 between 70 and 80 — a bit pricey, but still worth buying.
Anything higher won't be considered.
Purchases at the exchange are different from bounties. Zhao Chi's bounty quantity is too large, so the price definitely can't be set too high.
Unless it's a small bounty.
For purchases, one can buy at slightly higher prices.
After all, with so many Speed-Work Talismans, the average price isn't that expensive.
A quick calculation confirmed it would work.
The average price is roughly around 63.6 silver coins — acceptable.
The total price is roughly 39,000 gold coins.
Including various service fees and such, the final price should be around 41,000 gold coins.
The expense is manageable.
One gold coin is about the size of a 1-yuan coin; in 1 cubic meter of system space, about 1 million can fit.
For transactions of several tens of thousands of gold coins like now, payment can still be made on-site directly.
If there are larger transactions later, he'll have to bring a few more people to carry the gold coins, or transfer payment through territory transport.
Just as he was thinking, the queue reached Zhao Chi.
The female staff member behind the counter clearly remembered Zhao Chi, but there was no hostility in her eyes — only some nervousness.
"Mr. … what item would you like to purchase?"
Zhao Chi said: "This is the list, take a look. I can pay on-site."
"Oh, alright… wow~ you want all of these?"
The other party was clearly a little surprised.
A 38,000-gold-coin transaction isn't top-tier, but it's still a considerable sum.
It's absolutely a large order.
Zhao Chi nodded: "That's right, help me gather the goods."
"Alright, please open your system — I need to start the transaction process."
Zhao Chi did as instructed.
Quickly, the staff member locked the Speed-Work Talismans, and the corresponding inventory was cleared.
Then she began gathering the goods, preparing to trade them to Zhao Chi.
"Mr., please confirm the list again. I'm gathering the goods, please wait half a minute."
【Purchase List】
「Speed-Work Talisman」×61,000
【Goods Fee】 38,796 gold coins
【Service Fee】 1,164 gold coins
【Handling Fee】 776 gold coins
【Total】 40,736 gold coins
No problem.
Just as he had estimated.
The price is just over 40,000 gold coins.
While looking at the order information, suddenly a lord in the adjacent queue shouted out.
"Huh? What's going on? Why did the price of Speed-Work Talismans suddenly spike? All the Speed-Work Talismans in my order have become over 90 silver coins?"
"Same here, but mine was just cancelled outright."
"Right, how did so many Speed-Work Talismans disappear all at once? The 300-plus I selected were all cancelled too?"
At this moment, other lords also looked at their orders and inventory one after another.
Those lords who had pre-selected Speed-Work Talismans also received notifications.
When browsing the inventory list, lords can pre-select the items they want to buy and put them in a purchase list.
Convenient for submitting directly later.
Goods have estimated prices. Zhao Chi bought up all the cheap ones, so the estimated prices of the remaining ones naturally rose sharply.
And some people selected later, so they were cancelled outright.
All normal situations.
"Yeah! Why did the 150 I picked shoot up to 1.1 gold coins? What the hell am I supposed to buy with that!"
"Same here on my end."
"What's going on?"
"The only stock left is the super expensive Swift-Work Talismans!"
"Holy shit, really!"
"Is the guild going to take the Swift-Work Talismans away too?"
"No way, right? The guild's warehouse should have plenty of Swift-Work Talismans, right? There's no way they'd need to buy up all the ones on the exchange too, is there?"
"Aren't there still some left?"
"Damn, didn't you look at the prices on what's left? The cheapest is over 80 silver coins, most are over 1 gold coin. I'm not stupid, who'd buy that?"
"Then what's going on? I'm still short over 300 Swift-Work Talismans to rush the work in my territory, how am I supposed to buy them at that price?"
"I need 800, and forget the price, I just can't find any to buy at all."
"Ask the staff."
"Hello, is there an error in the Swift-Work Talisman inventory count?"
"Yeah, the Swift-Work Talismans on my end got cancelled too."
"Same here, I only need 50."
"My order is big, I pre-selected a full 1500, but the value is close to 1000 gold coins. How can you just cancel it like that?"
"Yeah, what's going on?"
The other staff members, upon hearing this, immediately checked.
Only the staff member in front of Zhao Chi wore an awkward expression.
But Zhao Chi was still sitting across from her, and she didn't dare speak, after all she had personally witnessed Zhao Chi beating up the vice squad leader here yesterday.
But the staff members beside her didn't know the situation, and based on the records in the system, they stated it bluntly:
"Huh? I checked and it says they were bought by someone?"
"Right, the system and data are both fine, it's a normal transaction."
"I checked too, a one-time purchase of 61,000... they've indeed been removed from inventory."
"Mm-hmm, at least it's not a data error, a transaction was definitely generated."
"Everyone please don't panic, the Swift-Work Talisman restock isn't slow, come back tomorrow and there will definitely be plenty of new ones registered."
"Right, please stop making a fuss, everyone quiet down."
The staff members explained the situation and tried to soothe the crowd.
But everyone on this floor was a lord.
