Chapter 11: Chapter 11, Skeleton Merchant_1

Fang Hao scowled at his private chat message.

“Yes, what is it?” Fang Hao replied.

Actually, he had some guesses in his heart.

“Iron axe, 50 units of meat for one, can increase resource gathering speed, how many do you want?”

Yao Liang’s tone was full of confidence. He didn’t even ask if Fang Hao would buy, he just asked how many he wanted?

It was reasonable to think so, as only Fang Hao would have the meat to spare for an axe.

After all, he puts a large amount of food up for sale every day, which clearly showed his ample food reserves.

At the same time, this proved that Yao Liang saw him as a rich fool.

No wonder he said in the channel that if you guys can’t afford it, someone else can.

He had set his sights on him a long time ago.

Just as Fang Hao was about to decline, he saw Yao Liang post again in the channel.

“I have already made a deal with Fang Hao, he will purchase a large number of iron axes, there are not many remaining, if you want to buy, hurry.”

What a noise!

As soon as his words were out, the channel boiled again.

“So expensive, only Boss Fang Hao can afford it.”

“They’re both price gougers, turning a simple tool into a luxury item.”

“Both of them are no good.”

“I’ll buy, I hunted two unicorns today, will get two.”

“That’s right, even Fang Hao knows the importance of early development, why don’t you understand? There aren’t many left, if you want to buy, hurry.”

Watching people chat, Fang Hao frowned.

He didn’t want to get involved in this, but Yao Liang had used him as a tool to make people believe the axes were scarce and accept the price.

Truthfully, Yao Liang was smart.

A smart but mean person.

If Fang Hao had not obtained the blueprint for the iron axe, he would have traded food for a few.

However much he traded later wouldn’t matter, as long as he made the trade, Yao Liang would use it to his advantage, using Fang Hao as his free advertisement.

Fang Hao wasn’t one to care about what others thought.

But he also didn’t want to be used by others.

After thinking a bit, he decided to clarify himself in the channel.

“I, Fang Hao, have neither bought nor intend to buy his axe, don’t blindly trust.”

“Wow, Boss Fang Hao spoke.”

“Capture! A living Fang Hao.”

“I knew it! This asshole was messing with us. Boss Fang Hao did not actually buy.”

Fang Hao’s words immediately led to others condemning Yao Liang’s shameless behavior.

Immediately following this was a private message from Yao Liang.

“Fang Hao, what the fuck do you mean? Are you trying to undermine me?”

“I never traded with you, so I need to let everyone know.” Fang Hao calmly replied.

“Good, you fucking played me, wait and see.” Yao Liang cursed in rage.

Fang Hao squinted his eyes, remembering Yao Liang.

But he currently didn’t know where Yao Liang’s territory was, so even being angry didn’t help.

Both of them cursing each other online would only waste their daily chat limit.

After thinking for a bit, Fang Hao thought of a plan to retaliate.

He immediately used the 100x multiplier to make 101 iron axes and put them up for sale.

[Trader: Fang Hao]

[Listed Item: Iron Axe]

[Quantity: 100]

[Required for 1 unit: 4 units of Iron.]

(Note: If you have a blueprint or special materials, you can negotiate price in private chat.)

Compared to Yao Liang’s 8 units of iron, Fang Hao’s 4 units seemed very reasonable.

And Yao Liang sent another private message.

“Motherfucker, you wait.”

At this moment, Yao Liang was furious.

Fang Hao had undermined him and made him lose face in the channel.

Then he sold iron axes for 4 units after. Those who just bought from Yao Liang were now chasing after him for refunds.

There’s no law in this world.

Even though they didn’t know each other’s territories, Yao Liang dared not offend so many people.

Under pressure, he had no choice but to refund the others.

…

Fang Hao ignored the enraged Yao Liang.

In this world, strength is the most important.

With the expansion of territories, those who survive will inevitably meet, and by then it wouldn’t be about who can curse better.

After listing the trade, the stock of iron axes slowly reduced.

Private chat rung again.

“Boss Fang Hao, I have a blueprint, I want to trade it for your iron axes.”

The blueprint was sent over.

[Wooden Bucket Blueprint (White)]

[Materials for Production: 5 Wood, 2 Hemp Rope.]

“I’ll give you two iron axes for it.” replied Fang Hao.

“Alright, thank you very much.”

Once the two completed the trade, the blueprint was immediately added to the Book of Lords.

Fang Hao immediately started crafting.

[Triggered hundred-fold amplification, received 101 Wooden Barrels.]

Just then, a Skeleton returned with some supplies.

“Go fill these barrels with water,” said Fang Hao.

The Skeleton immediately lifted the wooden barrels and set off.

At the same time, several private messages came in.

All of them wanted to trade blueprints for iron axes.

[Received white blueprint [Wooden Bench]: 5 Wood, 2 Hemp Rope.]

(Note: A simple wooden bench which can accommodate up to three people at a time.)

[Received white blueprint [Drying Rack]: 3 Wood, 2 Hemp Rope.]

(Note: Used for air-drying raw meat, handy for long-term storage.)

[Received white blueprint [Simple Single Bed]: 7 Wood, 6 Hemp Rope, 3 Leather.]

(Note: A simple and practical single bed, you can rest assured on it without worrying of falling off.)

I have a double bed made of solid wood.

Fang Hao muttered quietly, previously there was no bed, and he could only sleep on grass.

He always woke up aching all over.

Just after getting a big double bed, now he had received a blueprint for a single bed.

Why does it always happen this way, either nothing happens or everything happens all at once?

Apart from the blueprints.

Dong Jiayue contacted him too.

Exchanged Shadowstone for 10 iron axes.

After all, the food they exchanged last time was enough for her and the farmers in her territory for quite some time.

Next.

Fang Hao put 2,000 units of meat for sale and then returned to the Lord’s log house to rest.

…

Next morning.

Fang Hao came out of the log house and had a big stretch.

Sleeping in a bed is really comfortable.

The morning sun cast a warm glow over his face, dew shimmered on the grass next to it.

The breeze carried a faint scent of plants as it passed.

Honestly, the air here is much better than the world he left behind.

Picking up a plank placed aside, he etched “3” on it.

Signifying it was his third day in this world.

He lit up the fire to prepare breakfast, while also not forgetting to list more food for others to buy.

As he waited for the meat to be cooked, Fang Hao began crafting the [Drying Rack].

He only received the blueprint for the drying rack last night.

There was nothing to dry late at night, so he waited until the day to craft it.

[One hundred-fold amplification triggered, received 101 Drying Racks.]

A hundred drying racks appeared on the ground.

He called over a passing Skeleton, “From now on, you are in charge of drying food.”

The Skeleton put down the iron axe it was carrying, went to the warehouse, picked up a piece of meat, and hung it on the drying rack.

These skeletons are peculiar.

Even though they are not very intelligent, they are capable of carrying out basic tasks given by Fang Hao.

They work efficiently and adeptly.

Just like executing a program, they neatly hung three pieces of meat on each drying rack to dry.

Watching the Skeleton busy at work, Fang Hao took the last piece of grilled meat and popped it into his mouth.

After swallowing it, he put out the fire.

A notification suddenly rang out.

[Skeleton Caravan has arrived at your territory, it’s up to the Lord to inspect it.]

The market that was built yesterday.

The indicated time of arrival was 12 hours.

After the night passed, it was already time.

“You guys, follow me.” To be on the safe side, Fang Hao called a few Skeleton Soldiers along with him.

There’s likely no danger, but just in case.

A few skeleton soldiers immediately walked over, holding axes and shields and following behind Fang Hao.

Upon reaching the market, Fang Hao saw that a tombstone that had been built was now completed. A magnificent looking Skeleton sat beside the tombstone.

The Skeleton Merchant was dressed in rich attire, leaning against a wooden staff in his right hand, and wore a gemstone ring on his scrawny bone finger.

His hollow eye sockets shone with a blue light, like that of a ghost fire.

Upon seeing that Fang Hao was a human, the blue light in his eye sockets flickered with surprise.

But soon it calmed down.

He spoke softly, “The God of Undead accepts the faith of all believers.”

Seeing Fang Hao approach, he immediately stood up and said, “My Lord, Ruer is willing to serve you.”

Fang Hao was taken aback.

Holy shit! This skeleton can talk.
