Chapter 14 Big Business!

The price of iron ore on the street stalls is mostly around one gold coin. Lu Yu calculated that if weapons are not included, it would take about 24 iron ingots, or 24 gold coins, to make a full set of armor.

Tiaotiao looks like she is not good at fighting monsters, so she must be given a set, which will cost another 24 gold coins.

He also needs to buy some iron ingots for backup, which will be useful for making tools and other things.

After thinking it over again and again, Lu Yu finally decided to buy 64 pieces of iron ores, just enough to make a set.

His generosity immediately shocked the nearby spectators. A whole set of iron ores, does he have a mine at home?

He almost walked through half of the trading area before he gathered 64 pieces of iron ores. Most players only had a few scattered pieces of iron ores, which could not meet Lu Yu's needs at all.

Only one player named [Pangolin] had the most iron ores, nearly a set.

This made Lu Yu wonder if he was a pangolin spirit, otherwise how could he get so many iron ingots, and judging from his clothes, he was also wearing iron armor, which meant that these iron ores were definitely not all, and there must be more.

Lu Yu silently wrote down his ID and would pay more attention to his movements in the future.

After this big deal, Lu Yu only had more than 170 gold coins left, and his ranking on the gold coin ranking list immediately dropped to third place.

The second place ahead of him was the [Pangolin] who had just traded with him, temporarily ranking second with more than 200 gold coins.

The first place was called [Xiao Yu Xili], and his gold coins were actually only about ten gold coins higher than the second place. He had always been ranked second behind Lu Yu, but now that Lu Yu's ranking dropped, he naturally became the first place.

After collecting the iron ore, Lu Yu continued to wander around. He wanted to look for more good things.

Eggs!

Lu Yu's eyes lit up. There were several eggs on a stall not far away.

"Boss, how much are these eggs?"

He pretended to be casually strolling and pretended to be calm.

In fact, he was more excited than anyone else. With eggs, he might get chicks, and then the most important material for his arrows would be ready!

"It's not worth much. If you want, I'll give you all of these for one gold coin."

The stall owner looked a little depressed. These eggs had no other use except to make some food.

If they were simply used as food, people would choose delicious apples or bread, and no one would care about eggs.

"Okay, I'll take all of these."

Lu Yu put two gold coins in front of the stall owner, put the eggs into his backpack, and left.

He was ruthless to profiteers, but he didn't want to take advantage of normal players.

The stall owner was stunned when he saw the two gold coins. He didn't understand why the other party gave him an extra gold coin.

Lu Yu then went to other stalls to buy some flint. This thing is cheap. One gold coin can buy several sets. Lu Yu threw all of it into his bag.

Walking and walking, he unknowingly came to the main city hall in the center. There are some official stalls here, which can be regarded as a prime location.

Wooden boxes can be seen everywhere in the stalls, and the items for sale are marked in different categories at the door.

This is a unique box store in MC. It only needs a billboard and a wooden box to complete it. Enter the command on the billboard to set the price, and the box will become a vending machine. After the player selects the item he likes, he only needs to enter the number of gold coins to take out the item.

However, there are no players here yet, because opening a store in the central area requires a considerable rent. During the first test period, no one should be stupid enough to open a store here, which will be more trouble than gain.

】

Passing through the unmanned vending area, there is a staircase at the corner of the hall leading to the second floor. Lu Yu walked up and took a look with some curiosity.

Coming upstairs, looking around, there are rows of bookshelves everywhere, which looks like a large library.

Going deeper inside, an enchantment table appeared in front of him.

This is probably the place where the official enchantment is open to players, but the cost of enchantment here is quite high, and a high handling fee needs to be paid, which is unaffordable for ordinary players.

Lu Yu now has sugar cane, and if he raises some animals, he should be able to build his own bookshelves.

As for the enchantment table, he hasn't dug up diamonds yet, so he can't do it for the time being, and he also needs a diamond draft to dig obsidian, but these are still a bit far away for him now.

After leaving the main city hall, Lu Yu bought a set of coal. This thing is more expensive than flint. It takes two gold coins to buy a set, but it can greatly save his time.

His main direction now is to get the first kill of various monsters as soon as possible, obtain special effect titles, and earn more gold coins to rush the rankings. He is determined to get the 10 million first place.

With Tiaotiao at home to take care of the farmland, there is no need to worry about food and drink. When there is enough inventory, it can be sold in the main city for a good sum of money, killing two birds with one stone.

Lu Yu thought while inputting the command /home, and the portal slowly opened again.

As soon as he returned home, he heard the chewing sound coming from somewhere. Lu Yu was puzzled and shouted into the house.

"Tiaotiao, are you there?"

"Yes... yes!"

Tiaotiao came out from some corner, with red residue on the corner of her mouth that she hadn't wiped off in time. It was obvious that the sound she made just now was from her.

"Did you steal carrots?"

Lu Yu questioned.

"No! Look, there's not a single carrot missing here."

She also realized that she looked a little embarrassed, and quickly wiped the carrot residue from the corner of her mouth.

"Oh? Really?"

Lu Yu glanced at the room, and it was really as she said, there was not a single carrot missing.

So what did she eat just now?

He walked to the storage box and opened it, and immediately got the answer.

A bone that he had forgotten in the box disappeared. Needless to say, she must have secretly taken it to make bone meal to ripen carrots.

"You learn pretty fast!"

"What do you mean?"

Tiaotiao continued to play dumb and refused to admit it even if he was beaten to death.

"Hand over the extra carrots quickly! Otherwise!"

Lu Yu made a threatening gesture and said viciously.

"Okay, okay! I'll give it to you, don't hit me!"

Tiaotiao quickly and honestly took out the two carrots she had hidden from her backpack, with a look of reluctance on her face.

Lu Yu took one out of the pack, wiped it with his sleeve, put it to his mouth, and bit it with a crunch.

The taste was many times better than the carrots in reality.

He walked to the hillside behind and sat down, enjoying the warm breeze and the sun, admiring the scenery in the distance.

Seeing that Lu Yu was just scaring her, Tiaotiao was no longer panicked, and simply followed him, sitting down not far from Lu Yu, and began to eat carrots.

She quietly turned her head to take a look at the boy's profile, but her eyes met inadvertently, and her face immediately blushed, and she withdrew her gaze as if she had been electrocuted.
