Chapter 81 The Singer, Oh, the Singer 14

Although Tiger Wang thought highly of himself, the fact that he had cleared two two-star instances and one one-star instance, all with the highest S-rank rating, was enough to prove that he possessed a certain level of ability and had good luck. Most importantly, he knew right from wrong.

At times like these, he was very good at distinguishing priorities.

Even if he could persuade the other three male players and the three of them, making six people share the rent for a two-bedroom apartment, it would still cost ninety-five per person.

He only had ninety-eight on him. After paying the rent, he would only have three left. It was impossible for him to go seven days in the instance without eating or drinking, right?

Going hungry meant no stamina and no energy; being in such a state inside an instance was just asking for death.

His money was simply not enough.

He had to sell a prop.

He looked over his props back and forth twice and finally, reluctantly, fixed his gaze on one of them.

【Lily of the Valley Perfume in the Mist: From the most popular Floral Impression series of Miss Jiangshang Qingfeng's perfume factory. Each bottle can be used three times, and each use allows the user to gain a ghost state that can pass through solid matter for ten minutes. Miss Jiangshang Qingfeng originally wanted to design a perfume that would give the user a ghostly, eerie, and cold feeling after use; to some extent, she had also realized her initial vision. Usage count 1/3】

This was a c-rank prop.

Tiger Wang had already used this prop twice in the previous instance; currently, it only had one last chance for use.

Compared to other props, this one currently had the least utility.

He steeled his heart, opened the prop details, and selected 【Sell】.

"Do you wish to sell the prop 【Lily of the Valley Perfume in the Mist】?"

"Confirm sale."

"Detected that the player is in an instance. Please select 【System Buyback】 or 【Sell to Player in Same instance】."

Tiger Wang was just about to select 【System Buyback】 when he suddenly paused and quietly asked the system in his mind, "If the system buys it back, how much underworld currency will you give me?"

"Detected that 【Lily of the Valley Perfume in the Mist】 is a c-rank prop. It has been used 2/3 times. Based on comprehensive assessment, the buyback price is: 160 underworld currency."

One hundred and sixty?! Are you kidding me?!

The cheapest c-rank prop in the system mall sold for seven hundred, and those with useful mutations were even more expensive!

One that can only be used once sells for one hundred and sixty, and one that can be used three times sells for four hundred and eighty?! Four hundred and eighty?!

Something with an original price of at least seven hundred, and your buyback price is four hundred and eighty?!

Profiteer, profiteer!

Tiger Wang cursed up a storm in his mind. After a long while, he suppressed his anger and asked, "Then how much can I sell it for to a player in the same instance?"

"For sales to players in the same instance, the prop owner shall set the price themselves. Please note, it is not recommended for the player's set price to be lower than the system's buyback price."

Tiger Wang paused for a moment.

He still had to go find the other three people to discuss things. After they finished discussing, there would definitely be some haggling over the rent issue, so selling the item... wasn't that urgent.

It would be better to sell this item to a player in the same instance; earning a little more would be good.

Such a useful one-time prop, if it hadn't been used, would sell for about twelve hundred in the trading area.

But the usage count wasn't simply divided by three. After all, a prop that could be used three times definitely had a greater advantage in an instance. If the cost of a one-time use was four hundred underworld currency, then the selling price for this prop, which could only be used one more time, should be three hundred.

Fearing it wouldn't sell, Tiger Wang specifically lowered the price again, setting it at two hundred and seventy.

"The player has chosen to sell the prop to a player in the same instance. The price for the prop 【Lily of the Valley Perfume in the Mist】 is set at 270 underworld currency. The information has been broadcast to players in the same instance."

"After the prop is successfully sold, the system will automatically transfer the prop to the buyer; the valid purchase time is eight hours. Within these eight hours, the prop is locked and cannot be used."

The next second, the color of the prop in the inventory became dim, and a small lock appeared next to it.

At the same time, a message was broadcast to all the players' mobile phones.

"A player in your instance is selling the prop 【Lily of the Valley Perfume in the Mist】 for 270 underworld currency. Click to view prop details."

At this moment, Lin Xiangjun had just arrived home and was taking a single sofa out of her pouch.

Actually, the sofa in the living room was quite clean, but the quality wasn't very good; it was hard and uncomfortable to lie on.

She didn't have a habit of mistreating herself, so she decisively took out a sofa to improve her living conditions.

Just as she lay down on the sofa, her phone chimed with a system message notification.

"What's this? 【Lily of the Valley Perfume in the Mist】..."

Opening the system details, Lin Xiangjun raised her eyebrows in surprise.

This prop... it was like being handed a pillow just as one was getting sleepy!

She was just worrying that her plan lacked a wall-passing prop and couldn't be executed!

Although it was a one-time prop, for her, with the 【green trash can】, this one-time prop was infinitely reusable!

Good stuff!

She looked at the price again.

Two hundred and seventy underworld currency! It was practically charity, basically a giveaway!

Lin Xiangjun clicked to purchase without the slightest hesitation.

Hesitating for even one more second would be disrespectful to this prop!

The system automatically deducted two hundred and seventy underworld currency from her bank card, and a small perfume bottle appeared in Lin Xiangjun's hand.

Lin Xiangjun took a look and, wow, no wonder a bottle of perfume could only be used three times. The perfume bottle was the size of a fist, but the space for the perfume was only two centimeters deep and as thick as a pen refill; she didn't know if the capacity was even two milliliters.

The perfume, having been used twice already, was only a soybean-sized amount left, a tiny drop of pale blue liquid, looking quite pitiful.

Who designed these perfumes and lipsticks nowadays? How come they were all excessively packaged? Two hundred for the perfume and one hundred and ninety-nine for the cost of the packaging.

"Big tree hanging chili peppers." Lin Xiangjun silently complained in her heart.

After confirming the prop was fine, she put it into her pouch and turned to pull out a paper figurine card.

"I need a female, around thirty years old, with extremely strong social skills."

The paper figurine card and the underworld currency disappeared into thin air.

A female figure slowly condensed.

This was a woman with slightly dark skin, around thirty-five years old, wearing a dark red cotton-padded jacket. Her hair was permed and dyed orange, she had deep eye bags, was soaking wet, and her body was somewhat bloated.

It was actually a water ghost.

"Hello, I am Zhang Minxian, a manicurist."

A manicurist? That meant she had very strong social skills.

"Hello, my name is Lin Xiangjun. You can just call me Miss Lin."

Lin Xiangjun handed two hundred underworld currency to Zhang Minxian.

"This is your salary for the next month. Take it first, and let me tell you about your task."

Zhang Minxian was stunned the moment she saw the underworld currency, but when she was alive, she had been a very skilled manicurist. She often did manicures costing thousands and had seen many wealthy people, so she quickly calmed down.

"Miss Lin, please go ahead. I will definitely do my best."
