Virtual World: Close Combat Mage

Gu Fei didn't know where the dock was. When they came here, they sailed the boat themselves and drove directly onto the sand stall in a messy manner. After that, I ran away in a hurry to avoid being watched. I didn't have the impression that there was a dock nearby.

So Gu Fei asked around while walking, and was targeted by system guards twice because he was unfamiliar with the city. However, because the PK value is now less than 30, it attracts some fixed-point guards. As long as they escape a certain distance, they will ignore it. It is not difficult for Gu Fei, who can teleport, to do this.

After going all the way, Gu Fei finally arrived at the regular dock in Linshui City. The pier is very large, with several berths. Some have boats docked, and players are boarding one after another; some berths have no boats and no people; some have no boats, but many players are waiting. The boat must be arriving soon. ; There are even more ships that have just left the shore, and a few players who have not caught up with the ship are jumping and cursing at the berth.

But these were scenes that should be seen on a dock. Gu Fei didn't take it seriously. What really surprised him was that this place was no longer just a dock, but a very large market.

The sky is blue, the water is blue, and the breeze on the boiling surface is often mixed with water droplets. The golden sand stall next to the pier is clearly divided into multiple areas.

The left side is obviously the trading area. Many players have set up stalls here and are making full use of the richest resource here: sand. Everyone piled the sand into various strange shapes, and then placed the equipment they wanted to sell on top of it to attract others' attention. The most awesome thing is that there is a person who directly piled sand into a mannequin shape as tall as a person. He is wearing clothes and carrying a sword. Not to mention the equipment data effects, at least the appearance is clear at a glance, attracting the attention of countless people. This man's business is also very prosperous. The clothes on the Sandman models are sold and worn again and again, and new models are added when he has time.

Such a brilliant idea was only envied by other sales players around, and no one imitated it. Obviously the person who put the models together must have used some special techniques or skills that others would like to learn. But I don't know the trick.

The left side is mainly for trading, and the right side is the leisure and relaxation area.

There were actually round tables and wooden stools placed on the sand stall. Of course, the stools are not for free. This is an open-air tavern opened by players. There are people guarding the wine cabinets and selling drinks to players who come over. This sales method is obviously more profitable than Xiaolei Tavern. Xiaoleiguang has invested a lot in a big system house. After that, you can take the formal route and apply to the system to open a store. In this way, it will be recorded in the system, and a certain fee will be deducted from the turnover every day, which is called tax by the players.

And the system is really stupid. It is not ashamed of the players' ridicule, but is proud of it. Seeing that more and more players are starting to open stores, they even launched an activity to evaluate the merchants who pay the most taxes every day as tax stars, and then reward them. This reward is really expensive, which makes all the players who open stores work early and late. Competing with each other and suppressing each other creates a chaotic atmosphere.

Of course, regular merchants like Xiaolei also have the benefits of regular merchants.

For example, if you take the wine without paying for it, then he can summon the system guards with just one text message. After all, his store is registered in the system. Whether someone took wine without paying for it during the transaction, the system has well-documented records, and it does not mean that Xiao Lei's words are taken at face value. It's just that he gave the boss the right to call for help. After all, sometimes the boss will treat his friends to two bottles of free drinks. It would be too embarrassing for the system guards to automatically descend from the sky and take people away.

Compared to Xiao Lei. It is impossible for these players to pay taxes to the system. Naturally, it cannot be protected by the system. In case a strong man comes to eat for free. How can that be good? Even if the boss is a peerless master. People come to a guild at once. You can’t afford to offend that!

Gu Fei admired it. On the other hand, I was worried about these bosses. But when I got closer, I looked at the signs on each wine cabinet. Only then can we understand the spirit.

No one in these open-air non-systematic taverns buys and sells individually. All named guilds. The most eye-catching position on the wine cabinet clearly indicates that it is a certain guild. This is enough of a deterrent. Want to be hunted by the entire guild. Just come and have the Overlord meal!

There are many people hanging out in this open-air tavern. Compared to the indoor tavern where Gu Fei and the others often squatted, it certainly had a different flavor. Gu Fei walked around and found it interesting. For a moment, I also forgot about going to clear monsters and practice leveling. Start looking around for an open space. Also have to experience it.

This move was immediately noticed by the experienced liquor seller. He rushed over with as much energy as if he were grabbing an S: "Brother, are you looking for a place to sit down?"

"Yeah!" Gu Fei nodded.

"This way, there's still space here, how many people are there?" the other party asked.

"One." Gu Fei said.

"Big Ben, I'm alone. Come and set up a small table!" The player turned around and shouted.

"Here we come!" A squatting soldier next to the wine cabinet heard the sound and stood up. Take two steps forward and "call". He reached into his pocket and took out a small round table that looked like a bedside table. Then he picked up a bench from the side and placed it properly in two clicks: "Sit down!"

"How much weight are you carrying?" Gu Fei sat down dumbfounded.

The soldier smiled honestly and returned to his original position, squatting and playing in the sand again.

"Brother, do you want this?" The receptionist stretched out his hand and handed over a drink list.

Gu Fei raised his eyes and saw that the drinks were still the same, but the prices were more expensive than regular shops like Xiaolei Tavern that had to pay taxes. It seems that what is sold here is not just about drinks, but also this special atmosphere. Gu Fei sighed inwardly as he glanced around to see what other players around him wanted to drink.

At a glance, I found that although the environment has changed, the players' consumption concepts are still the same, and most of the drinks they want are cheap. Gu Fei was about to order one when he suddenly found two bottles of the most expensive 200 on a single table identical to his own. Someone who drinks this kind of wine! Gu Fei raised his eyes and saw, sure enough, Young Master Han was sitting there holding a wine glass. The difference is that everyone who drinks here will look around at the scenery and feel the atmosphere while drinking. Only this guy's attention is entirely on the wine glass in his hand.

"Sorry!" Gu Fei suddenly stood up, "I have a friend over there, let me go and sit with him!"

"Where is it!" The player who was entertaining showed an unhappy look on his face. After all, a special table was specially opened for Gu Fei.

"There!" After Gu Fei pointed, the player's face showed an expression of ecstasy again. Why? Just because the person at the table is the Young Master of the Han family. Mr. Han drinks expensively, quickly and in large quantities. Such drinkers are the favorites of the hotel owner. Now Gu Fei was actually this man's friend, so he went over to help him consume some energy. Wouldn’t he drink more quickly? You must know that one cup of this kind of wine is worth countless cups of the cheapest wine, not to mention that guy is actually very good at talking about bottles.

The player's attitude suddenly became enthusiastic again, and he came over to help Gu Fei place the stool in front of Mr. Han's table.

Young Master Han finally stopped paying attention to his glass of wine and raised his head. After seeing Gu Fei behind the player, without saying a word, he turned back and continued to pay great attention to his glass of wine.

Entertain players with confused looks. Young Master Han's attitude was like seeing a ball of air. Gu Fei, however, didn't think so. He patted the man and said, "Bring me a wine glass." After saying that, he sat down. The man immediately touched his pocket and brought Gu Fei the largest wine glass he owned. It was so big that even Young Master Han's calm face showed a hint of surprise.

A hint of cunning flashed in the corner of the player's eyes, he patted Gu Fei's shoulder affectionately and said, "Take it easy."

Gu Fei nodded, ignoring Young Master Han's expression, took his wine bottle and poured a full glass. This cup was indeed big enough. After one cup, half the bottle was gone. Gu Fei was holding the cup. It feels very fulfilling.

Before he could take a sip, someone else had already rushed to Gu Fei's side, lowered his head and asked, "Brother, do you want grilled fish?"

"Grilled fish?" Gu Fei was surprised.

The man looked back and pointed, Gu Feishun looked forward, and saw an embarrassing place on the beach with less beautiful scenery. There were piles of bonfires on the ground, smoke was curling up, and many players were squatting in front of the fire and busy with sticks. The tops are basically made of fish. While grilling, I looked at the wine stall to see if any new customers had arrived. Several people expressed regret that Gu Fei was robbed.

"Chef proficiency is 2700, which guarantees your satisfaction." The player continued to recommend himself.

"How much...uh, one piece or a string?" Gu Fei asked.

"One is a string." The other party replied. "But we all call it Yigun."

"Are all fish the same size?" Gu Fei suddenly became curious and gossipy.

"They are all brushed by the system, and they are guaranteed to be exactly the same size." The other party replied with great confidence.

"How much?"

"Five gold coins."

"It's quite expensive!" Gu Fei said. In fact, Yunduan City has not yet developed a catering industry. Other major cities only pass by in a hurry, and even if they do, they don't know about it. So Gu Fei didn't understand the market, he just felt it intuitively.

"It's all at this price," the man said.

"Then let's try the two stick skewers first!" Gu Fei said.

"Okay, okay." The man nodded quickly and ran away as fast as possible. He would not come back soon. He was holding two sticks with two fish on them. honestly. It was very rough, but there was a kind of wild fun in it. Gu Fei looked at the fish and felt that it was still very greedy.

After happily paying the gold coins, Gu Fei took the fish, took a stick and handed it to Young Master Han.

Young Master Han was holding a wine glass and slowly shook his head.

"Try it!" Gu Fei had already tasted it, and it felt very good, and he highly recommended it.

"I've already eaten six sticks." Mr. Han said while tapping his foot on the ground.

Gu Fei lowered his head and looked. Sticks all over the place. He was very surprised and said: "You can eat and drink, but you have a wine bag and rice bag!"

Young Master Han's face turned cold. He reminded me coldly: "It's mine if you drink."

"Yeah, yes." Gu Fei nodded quickly and took a full sip.

At this moment, there was a sudden shout: "Look, it's that guy!!!"

A glass of wine, a stick of grilled fish, and N tickets
