Post-Apocalyptic Survival Modpack

Chapter 115, Section 114: Sudden Wealth

"This is great!"

At the market appraisal office, a scholar respectfully welcomed Wang Ji inside. Upon seeing the amulet that Wang Ji produced, he immediately exclaimed in amazement.

After determining the amulet's function, the scholar in charge of the appraisal asked, "Do you intend to sell it in large quantities or auction it off in small quantities?"

"If you choose to sell in bulk, I can offer you 50,000 World Coins each. You can never have too many of these life-saving amulets. I can help the marketing department establish a long-term partnership with you."

"As for the auction, such an amulet is estimated to sell for hundreds of thousands of world coins, and if someone really needs it, it could fetch a price of over a million."

"However, it's impossible to sell a lot, and it will become sluggish after a while. Moreover, in terms of auction efficiency, the turnover is relatively small."

The scholar thoughtfully listed the pros and cons for Wang Ji.

Wang Ji decisively said, "Let's go for wholesale. I don't have time to wait for the auction."

The scholar's eyes lit up: "Okay, how much do you want to buy in bulk?"

Wang Ji glanced at the conversion table and estimated that based on the current EMC accumulation, he could only exchange for 10,000 units.

That's already a lot, considering he hasn't really developed anything related to farming resources since creating the world.

Or rather, it was interrupted by the nasty outside world before it even had a chance to develop.

"Sell 10,000 units first."

"Ten thousand..."

That's 500 million World Coins.

The marketing department scholar paused while estimating the figures.

It's much less than expected, but... it's okay.

The scholar suggested, "If that's all you have, I would still recommend that you put it up for auction."

Wang Ji shook his head: "No need, we're just selling a little to test the waters first, and there will be more later."

"Ok."

The marketing department scholar didn't say anything more, but simply transferred 500 million World Coins to Wang Ji and left his contact information.

"Please feel free to contact me if needed."

The cold amulet was thus transformed into warm world currency.

Wang Ji's account was immediately filled.

World currency: 500000000.

Genesis Coin: 0.1.

At the exchange rate of Genesis Coin to World Coin, it would take five Genesis Coins to exchange for 500 million.

Unfortunately, this is a one-way street.

Wang Ji checked the market and the commission board, searching everywhere but couldn't find anyone willing to exchange Genesis Coin for World Coin.

It is clear that there is indeed a significant and insurmountable gap between these two currencies, making it difficult to exchange a lower-ranked currency for a higher one.

So what's next...?

Wang Ji went straight to the exchange and retrieved a physical World Coin.

A coin containing amazing energy.

World Currency is not just a simple number; it is real energy that can be redeemed at any time.

Wang Ji tossed the World Coins into the conversion table.

Swah——

In the conversion interface, the number representing EMC (Energy Covalent Conversion) soared soared, almost overflowing the panel.

Now we've truly achieved EMC freedom.

Wang Ji threw 10,000 World Coins directly into the conversion table.

He then returned to the market and found the scholar he had met before.

Hello, may I ask...?

"I'll sell another hundred million amulets."

hiss--

The scholar couldn't help but gasp.

Big deal!
The scholar couldn't help but ask, "Are there really that many?"

"some."

Seeing that Wang Ji was not joking, the scholars also began to take it seriously.

It seems to be a product that can be produced continuously, and at a relatively low cost.

Generally speaking, items produced in large quantities like this are not very expensive.

But this amulet's function is precisely what powerful beings across all realms need.

At least, for the short term, prices won't come down. As for how long that will take, that's not Wang Ji's concern.

He only needs to collect the money; the marketing department will handle everything else.

This matter quickly alarmed the marketing department management, and a small meeting was soon held to discuss the 'self-defense amulet'.

"If it could truly be produced indefinitely, then like the 'Book of Wisdom,' it has the potential to become a phenomenal product."

"Worth paying attention to."

This is one of the results of the meeting.

The department is still discussing pricing and the sale, or business strategies.

The revenue and potential of this business, although only a small ripple in the overall market, depend on the circumstances.

What may seem like a small ripple in the overall market becomes a significant and noteworthy phenomenon when considered within a single division.

...

Wang Ji didn't pay much attention to these business matters; at this moment, all he knew was that his world currency should be free.

Now take another look at the delegation panel—

Entrustment, what entrustment?
He couldn't be bothered with tasks worth tens or hundreds of World Coins, let alone large-scale tasks worth tens or hundreds of thousands or even millions of World Coins.

Before even experiencing the hardships, one already knows nothing about world currency and has achieved world currency freedom.

But it only applies to global currency freedom.

Wang Ji adjusted his mindset and began browsing the market.

I bought a copy of the book of wisdom as soon as possible, going straight for the top-of-the-line deluxe edition.

The moment the purchase was successful, an antique book with gold-embossed edges appeared before him and slowly fell into Wang Ji's hands.

Show low profile.

After Wang Ji accepted the book and bound his identity, suddenly, his account had an extra three million World Coins.

"Ok?"

Wang Ji was taken aback.

What do you mean? Does this mean they don't want to sell to me?

Just as I was wondering, a figure emerged from the book and appeared before me.

The man bowed slightly to Wang Ji and said:

"Hello, esteemed newly promoted 'Genesis Level' Mr. Wang Ji, I am a senior scholar of the Wise Men Association and your exclusive appraiser."

"On behalf of the 'Association of Wise Men,' I sincerely wish you a smooth and successful journey on your path to creation."

"Please accept this deluxe edition of the Book of Wisdom as a small gift from the Association of Wise Men."

It turned out to be the case.

Wang Ji breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and responded to the senior scholar.

"Please feel free to call if needed."

After confirming that Wang Ji had nothing else to do, the scholar left.

Wang Ji looked at the unchanged account and didn't know what to say for a moment.

That's why they're called the Association of Wise Men; their work is truly impeccable.

Wang Ji examined the deluxe edition of the Book of Wisdom in his hand.

First of all, this item is bound to the user and can only be used by the purchaser; it requires soul authentication.

It has separate line mode and network mode.

Offline mode can only access its own knowledge, similar to the advanced version.

The online mode allows for the immediate access to senior scholars from the Wise Men Association for assessment, advice, and on-site research.

It's usually in network mode, but...

"Some apocalyptic areas have been automatically disconnected."

That's reasonable, I suppose.

As I was reading the instructions for the Book of Wisdom, a notification appeared:
[Detectable feature to add: Item description.]

"Add to!"

Wang Ji activated the new feature without hesitation.

The Book of Wisdom is still in my hand, just as it was before.

But something has indeed changed.

Wang Ji opened the backpack and found that all the items inside had annotations describing their functions, provided he focused his attention even slightly.

Whether it's something you know or something you don't, everything now has more descriptions and explanations.
