Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 56. Romain was so angry he wanted to curse.

"It's best not to mention things you can't afford to trade."

After finishing his introduction, Luo Aimang flicked his tentacle, and the toothpick disappeared into the void. "By the way, is it your custom to point weapons at each other when negotiating business?"

"Ah, sorry!"

Li Zheng realized what was happening and quickly put away his Desert Eagle and stood still.

Luo Aimang waved his tentacles nonchalantly and said, "It's alright. Anyway, the attack just now has been settled as a trade, so don't worry about me retaliating. By the way..."

It pointed with its tentacle to Li Zheng's feet and said, "Is that your pet?"

"pet?"

Li Zheng turned his head, but Xiao Ying was no longer on his shoulder.

Looking down, I saw the little guy lying on the ground with his eyes closed, his body stiff, and his expression peaceful.

"Well……"

Li Zheng opened Xiaoying's pet panel and saw the word 'healthy' in the status column, so he knew that the little guy was pretending to be dead.

"Ha ha……"

Li Zheng chuckled dryly as he picked up Xiao Ying and held her in his arms. He felt her trembling almost imperceptibly and knew that Luo Aimang had frightened her.

Let alone Sakura, if the space here weren't so small, Li Zheng would have taken his leave the moment he witnessed the other person catch the bullet with their bare hands.

Those bullets are imbued with platinum-level genetic abilities!
This is Li Zheng's strongest attack method to date!

The other party could easily catch it, and even chew and swallow it like a candy!
Who wouldn't tremble at the sight of such an opponent?
"The child is still young and very sleepy."

Li Zheng casually made up a sentence, and then thought about what he could currently offer for trade.

After all, according to Romain Rolland, as long as he doesn't make any trade requests that exceed his capabilities, there will be no danger.

In fact, if handled properly, two trading opportunities can be turned into a great opportunity for oneself!
Moreover, this is likely the biggest opportunity after entering the matrix, besides what the treasure chest brings!

"It's a pity that the game has only been running for a short time. I currently have very few access to high-level items, and I only have a vague idea of ​​the specific value of many things. Otherwise, I could try trading some rare items."

Li Zheng silently calculated all the inventory he had and found that most of his current inventory consisted of various materials of the black iron grade, while items of bronze grade and above were much less common.

He even lacked almost all gold-grade materials.

"As for items other than materials, besides the weapon blueprint, only the space jump device can be traded."

"If only I could trade high-level items for black iron-grade materials..."

After a moment's consideration, he tentatively asked, "Can I exchange a low-level item for a high-level one?"

"Oh?"

Luo Aimang raised an eyebrow, seemingly surprised that the other person would ask such a question, and asked in return, "When you go to a store, can you use a hundred one-yuan coins to buy an item worth a hundred yuan?"

The answer is definitely yes, it's feasible!
Li Zheng was invigorated.

Luo Aimang reminded him, "But you need to think it through, because there will be a premium when exchanging low-level items for high-level goods. Also, if all you bring out are materials, you can only exchange them for materials of the next higher tier."

You can only change the source material.

This transaction restriction poses no problem for Li Zheng at all.

Because he just wanted to find some new material.

"correct."

Li Zheng then thought of another question: "Does a trading opportunity mean that only one item can be traded at a time, or can I exchange multiple items at once as long as I take out something?"
For example, if I take out one hundred pieces of Black Iron-grade materials, which could originally be exchanged for ten pieces of Bronze-grade materials, does this transaction count as one transaction, or ten transactions?

"Well, this issue... although it might seem like exploiting a loophole, but..."

Roemand also assessed whether the transaction would generate sufficient value and reviewed his inventory.

"If you're only trading low-level materials, congratulations, you fall into the former category."

How much stuff can such a weak player accumulate in just a few days?
"Great!"

After confirming the information, Li Zheng became completely excited.

If that's the case, then this transaction of mine has a very high degree of feasibility!

"Please wait a moment, Manager Luo. I have quite a few things to bring out, so it may take some time to prepare." "No problem, I have plenty of time."

Luo Aimang waved his tentacles, signaling Li Zheng to prepare the items for the transaction. Then he turned around the sofa and disappeared from Li Zheng's sight.

It guessed that Li Zheng needed time to exchange or borrow some items from other players to trade with it.

In such an environment, how many friends can you make?

Even if you trade with someone else, how much can you get in return?
LOL, they're not afraid at all!

Romain, who had turned away, didn't even take the matter to heart.

"In that case..."

Li Zheng took out the capsule dwelling, unfolded it in the room, and carried Xiaoying inside.

"I don't need to wait for other players in the channel to level up; I can take off today!"

His eyes were filled with excitement.

"Open the trading floor!"

The next moment, the list unfolded, and Li Zheng found all the potion-making commissions currently under his name and began to accept the tasks.

The gene-making station started operating, and batches of drugs were gradually produced, most of which were 1+ limit black iron-grade gene-making drugs.

Only a small number of 2+ limit potions are available.

This time, Li kept all the extra materials during the production process.

For him, even if these 1+ and 2+ limit materials were made into potions, they would only be put into the trading hall to be sold in exchange for some food or high-level materials.

However, the transaction cycle can become very long.

However, after meeting Roemeng, he could directly exchange materials for materials to obtain the 3+ limit or even higher limit materials that he urgently needs!
After working for a while, looking at the large number of order forms hanging in the trading hall, Li Zheng took the opportunity to create five more intelligent humanoids and have them help classify all the excess materials and find a place to pile them up in his residence.

……

More than half an hour later, all the medicine orders were completed, and the extra blood materials were neatly sorted and piled up by the five intelligent humanoids, looking like more than ten small mountains!
At this moment, these intelligent humanoid robots were already standing in the corner, recharging on their own.

"Tsk tsk, the biggest drawback of capsule accommodations compared to backpacks in other games I've played before is that they can't be organized with one click. With the smart humanoid this time, it saves me a lot of trouble."

Although the capsule dwelling itself has the function of moving items inside, it is limited to "equipment" items; other items can only be moved back and forth between the capsule dwelling and Li Zheng.

Moreover, this function can only be used if Li is inside the capsule residence.

In capsule mode, only the "collect" and "remove" functions are retained, which is extremely inconvenient for item categorization.

For some obsessive-compulsive players, it would take them a long time to organize these items every day.

Li Zheng clicked his tongue twice and sighed, "It's a pity that the power core inside the intelligent humanoid body can't be taken out like a water purifier, otherwise it could be used as a charger for the power core."

Once the energy within the power core is depleted, it will turn into a small, transparent glass sphere. Checking the information will prompt that the energy is exhausted and it is unusable.

When crafting items, only a fully charged power core can be used as a material. Once even 0.1% of the energy is used up, the power core can no longer be used as a material and can only be used to recharge or replace the energy of the equipment.

As for those that have run out of space, either discard them or keep them to occupy some space in your capsule home.

Even so, this time, Li Zheng had a total of 103 fully-energy black iron-grade power cores, including the ones he obtained from dismantling the previous room!
Converted to the equivalent of Iron-grade gene serum, that's over five hundred bottles!
"No wonder William is so keen on being a shrewd businessman; it turns out that being a shrewd businessman is so profitable!"

Li Zheng clicked his tongue in admiration, recalling a sentence he had seen online before.

"To make money in business, you need a conscience. Once you lose your conscience... you'll make even more money!"

"However... after disassembling them so many times, no matter how long those devices or mechanical dolls had been running, the power cores obtained from the disassembly always seem to be fully powered by default. Maybe next time I should try disassembling the devices I made myself and see if I can get a fully powered power core?"

Thinking this, Li Zheng picked up Xiaoying, who was still pretending to be dead but had food in her mouth, and walked out of the capsule residence.

"Shopkeeper Luo, I'm ready."

Li Zheng put away the capsule residence, and with a wave of his hand, he released more than a dozen small mountains made up of various black iron-grade blood inside the house.

"Hmm, so the transaction continues... Holy crap!!!! So much!?"

After turning around the sofa chair and seeing the dozen or so small hills, Luo Aimang instantly lost his composure and swore.
