Those who reincarnate must die.
Chapter 416 Trade Fair
Zhang Lang activated the Reincarnator Detection function!
As far as he knew, most of the reincarnators who came this time chose to live in the East District.
Not only are there numerous shops here, making shopping convenient, but it's also easier to find accommodation. Furthermore, most reincarnators come from the modern world, like the main world, and don't have the medieval residents' habit of going to bed early. Therefore, the East District, still brightly lit late at night, naturally becomes their first choice!
So, what do these reincarnators who have gathered in the East District do at night? Zhang Lang was quite curious!
Sure enough, after activating the detection function, numerous bright spots appeared on the map... With a radius of three kilometers, the area covered was nearly thirty square kilometers, more than enough to encompass the entire eastern district...
Zhang Lang carefully observed and discovered that most of these points of light were clustered in places like taverns, casinos, and brothels, in twos and threes, but some were acting alone... It seems that no matter which world you go to, people's interests and hobbies are pretty much the same...
"Hmm?" Zhang Lang quickly noticed that there was a place where many reincarnators had gathered!
Zhang Lang had just passed by this place. Looking back, he saw a seemingly ordinary bar, not very large, with no sexy female waitresses soliciting business at the entrance… But on the map, that small bar contained over thirty points of light. They looked densely packed, layered upon layered…
The reincarnators have booked the entire venue? Why?
Out of curiosity, Zhang Lang went back and pushed open the door to the bar.
The bar wasn't big; the lobby on the first floor had only about ten tables, with three or four people at each table. However, there was no chair next to the round table under the chandelier in the very center. A person was standing on the table, holding a submachine gun, explaining its properties and effects to the audience around him.
Upon seeing someone enter, the bar's patrons all turned to stare at Zhang Lang.
"I am also a reincarnator." Judging from their attire, Zhang Lang knew that apart from the reincarnators, there were no ordinary guests here. It must be some kind of small gathering of reincarnators.
"Dude, to join, you'll need to pay at least one gold coin!" The guy introducing the submachine gun pointed at Zhang Lang: "That's the money I paid the bar owner to book the whole place! It has to be usable, you know!"
Since the party had already started, it meant this guy had already raised and paid for the entire venue. However, everyone else had obviously paid, and Zhang Lang didn't want to disrupt this fairness, so he pulled out a gold coin and tossed it over!
The man caught the gold coin, scanned it with his badge, and then put it away with a smile.
"So what are you doing?" Zhang Lang asked.
"You'll see when you look!" The man raised the submachine gun in his hand: "It's an auction!"
An auction?
Zhang Lang was stunned. Later, after being told by the host and the other reincarnators around him, he finally understood what had happened.
As is well known, the mission rules allow reincarnators to earn coins from the mission world by any means necessary and exchange them for points when they leave.
This legitimate means includes completing tasks, working, collecting bounties, etc. Naturally, doing legal business also falls into this category.
So what kind of business is legal? First and foremost, the goods must be of legitimate origin. Selling stolen or robbed items doesn't count as business; it's considered receiving stolen goods.
But the reincarnators have no assets in this world, so how are they supposed to start a business?
The most sensible approach would be to buy goods with your gold coins and then resell them. But even trading in the familiar main world is risky; what makes you so confident that you can outperform local merchants here?
Besides that, he sold all the things he had brought with him!
When reincarnators enter a mission world, they always bring some personal items, some of which are rare items not found in this world, such as plastic products, which can arouse the interest of the local natives...
However, in this world, a single gold coin has considerable purchasing power, and ordinary trinkets with little practical value don't fetch high prices. Then, someone salvaged equipment from the sewers of deceased reincarnators and was surprised to discover that these items exchanged at the altar could also be sold for gold coins!
Of course, neither firearms nor melee weapons were worth much money in the eyes of these natives, and the gold coins earned from selling scavenged items were not considered legitimate income. The only purpose of the few coins they received was to cover their expenses.
However, this behavior made many reincarnators realize a small loophole in the rules!
Since Reincarnators can sell the equipment they exchanged at the altar for gold coins, does that mean they can also buy it back with gold coins?
Does that mean that in this world, reincarnators can directly trade equipment and items exchanged at the altar, or even thousands of points of rewards, using gold coins as a medium?
The experiment turned out to be true! Moreover, buying and selling items that you own is considered a legitimate transaction, and you can bring back the gold coins you received, and the equipment you bought will successfully change owners!
In this world, reincarnators can trade freely without relying on "merchants"!
Upon discovering this, the reincarnators pooled their money to rent out a small tavern and organized a trade fair!
And today's event happens to be the first trade fair, and it's just started. The guy who just introduced the submachine gun is the organizer, and he's the first one to go up and auction off his own item!
"Not bad luck!" Zhang Lang understood what had happened, so he found a place to sit down and watched them walk to the round table in the middle one by one and take out the weapons and props they were prepared to auction.
Since the mission has only been going on for two days, most of the reincarnators don't have much gold, so no one is actually bidding on the thousand-point reward. Most are just offering regular items that can be exchanged for a few dozen points, or at most a hundred, from the altar. However, these items are still useful to many, such as those who have run out of medicine and ammunition, or whose weapons are damaged. Sellers usually use the altar's exchange rate as a starting price, letting everyone bid to get a better price.
To be honest, Zhang Lang wasn't really interested in these things, but since he had nothing better to do, he treated it as a pastime. Watching the buyers scrambling to bid for a hot item, or the sellers leaving dejectedly after failing to sell because their asking prices were too high, was quite amusing.
Several times, local residents accidentally wandered in, but upon seeing these fully armed adventurers, they mostly left. Even those who lingered out of curiosity, seeing them spend tens or hundreds of gold coins on a single knife, labeled these adventurers as crazy and showed no interest in the auction.
As for the reincarnators who accidentally stumbled in, they naturally all joined in.
As each item was sold, it grew later and later. The reincarnators couldn't stay up all night, since they had to go hunting in the underground palace the next day, and not getting enough rest would be fatal!
Seeing that few people were going to come up, the organizer of the trade fair stood up and reminded them, "Is there anyone else who wants to sell something? If not, then today..."
"Me too!" Just then, a young man with round glasses and a scholarly air raised his hand.
"Then hurry up and be done with it, you stubborn mule!" the organizer cursed. He was probably in a good mood because the submachine gun had sold for a good price, and didn't say much, just yawned and urged, "Hurry up, hurry up, don't waste time!"
"Sorry, I've just decided too..." The young man pushed up his glasses, walked somewhat hesitantly to the round table in the center, and showed off his products.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Lang's eyes lit up!
