Thirty thousand gold, it sounds daunting, a sense of never running out, but in reality, it’s not so.

If Li Yao wanted to be a lone player, let alone tens of thousands of gold, even hundreds at this stage would be more than enough, he wouldn’t need to worry about gold coins.

If Li Yao wanted to play around and set up a small guild just for fun, he wouldn’t need much money either. It’s just a group of people coming together to create a guild, with no big ambitions, just there to enjoy the game slowly.

However, what Li Yao wants to do is to establish a super guild and a club. Thirty thousand gold is just enough for him to get started.

You have to understand that those big guilds and clubs in reality are like a huge organization.

Such interest groups with real-life core bodies have every department set up robustly. They have the competition team, the raid team, the guild war team, the logistic team, including guild management, life players, supply gatherers, gold farming staff, and other various departments all operating in a full-fledged scale.

These guilds are organized, disciplined machines with a clear goal to strive for. Without abundant funding, it would be impossible for Li Yao to build up something that could counter those huge guilds based on his rebirth advantage and technological advantage alone. That’s just a pipe dream.

Today, when game guilds have been standardized, grouped, and professionalized, it’s not something a couple of younglings can overturn with passion alone.

Li Yao was sorting out the warehouse when he suddenly received a private chat voice message from Boundless Ocean: “Ahem, what are you up to, Brother Prairie Fire?”

“Ocean, this is unlike you. Are you here for the Shining Fruits?” Li Yao guessed his intentions as soon as he thought about it.

“Haha, nothing gets past you. We are getting ready to raid, but as you know, even after the guild has tried all means, we can only buy a few here and there, which is nowhere near enough. Three gold per set at the auction, right? I’ll take three sets. Selling directly to me saves the auction fee and is more convenient,” said Boundless Ocean.

“You are so stingy, only buying three sets. At least ten sets, otherwise, I might as well auction them,” Li Yao shook his head.

“Bro, come on, we are good friends. To be honest, our finance is tight, most of the gold coins are tied up in other materials, so we are really short on gold coins now,” Boundless Ocean complained.

“Don’t give me that. Are you asking me to count it for you or what? It’s not me not being a good friend. If you said it was for your raid, there’s no problem, I’d even gift you two sets. After all, I got them for three silver. But now you are clearly representing the guild. How could I let go of a big client like you?” Li Yao said seriously.

“Ok, ten sets then,” Boundless Ocean reluctantly conceded.

“Stop pretending. You are the scout sent by other guilds to test the waters, right? Let me tell you clearly upfront, I don’t have much stock. If you don’t want to waste time, you can tell those big guilds. If they want Shining Fruits, sure, but the minimum order is twenty sets. Otherwise, they will have to camp at the auction house all day, waiting for the moment when I feel like putting up one or two sets for auction.”

“So you don’t accept private chats and messages from strangers either. That’s a tough move because there are so many guilds trying to feel me out through me. I will keep track of the orders and send them to you within an hour at most. You can mail the goods and request payment on receipt,” Boundless Ocean said.

“Alright, since Ocean is so helpful, what else can I say? I’ve mailed you ten sets, and this time you don’t need to pay, consider it a personal gift from me to you. But you’ll have to pay next time,” Li Yao said, and sent out the ten sets of Shining Fruits.

“Haha, I knew you are a good bro,” Boundless Ocean certainly doesn’t care about a few dozen gold coins, what he cares about is Li Yao’s attitude.

Li Yao laughed. He has over ten thousand sets, so ten sets are a droplet in the ocean, in fact, it just cost him 30 silver coins, but it can be quite significant at times.

After some thought, Li Yao sent another fifty sets to Feng Yi.

There must be many guilds trying to probe him through Feng Yi as well, but since she hasn’t contacted him lately, it might be because she didn’t want to bother him. So, he directly sent her fifty sets to help her with relationships or something.

“If anyone asks you to probe me, could you take care of it for me please? Keep track of it, each order should be no less than twenty sets, otherwise, don’t bother. I’m sending you fifty sets, you can handle it as favors,” Li Yao said.

“So that’s your plan. I thought you were going to hold on to them for a few days and raise the price,” Feng Yi said.

“No use. Three gold is pretty much their limit. After all, they’re raiding for profit, if they spend all the return on me, nobody is that stupid. Moreover, if it weren’t for me deliberately starting a fire, the raiding masters wouldn’t act so eagerly,” Li Yao told Feng Yi the truth.

“I see. I’ll create a spreadsheet for you. You just need to mail the goods and ask for payment on receipt later,” Feng Yi understood that Li Yao didn’t want to engage in a price war. He simply set a fixed price, take it or leave it.

Li Yao wasn’t worried at all, so he went ahead and bought some more cheap items at the auction. Shashou Jian also contacted Li Yao, to which he directly sold twenty sets.

Within twenty minutes, Boundless Ocean and Feng Yi both sent him spreadsheets.

Li Yao glanced over and saw many large guilds that had reached out to them, about thirty in total.

Li Yao sent each of them an email with twenty sets of goods with payment on receipt. They basically paid immediately.

Suddenly, Li Yao’s coin purse began to swell like a ball, along with the six hundred sets Zhao Lei was going to sell at the neutral and Alliance’s auction house, he had almost four thousand gold coins.

Thinking back to his past life, when he was level sixty and it took him nearly two months to scrape together enough gold coins just to buy a thousand-gold mount. It was such a struggle. But now, at level twelve, he had three to four thousand gold coins in his bag, and even more valuable goods in his warehouse. Li Yao couldn’t help sighing.

Then, Li Yao started a new round of shopping. He wasn’t worried. The supply of Shining Fruits had always been tight, and with Li Yao’s fire-starter actions, the rich big shots flocked to the master level dungeons. There was genuinely no concern about oversupply.

“Big Bro, are we going to start our own guild or not?” Dazed Innocence asked dissatisfiedly.

“We will. I’ll head to Silvermoon City right away,” Li Yao was addicted to shopping, spending gold coins like water.

Li Yao returned directly to the charging room, used the World Amplifier to shrink size, and went straight to the Tower of the Sun on his Fire Eagle, then took the Flying Mount and quickly arrived at the capital of the Elves.

Most of Silvermoon City had been destroyed. The current capital was a reconstruction in the ruins, but it was still magnificent and gorgeous.

Only some important doors had elf guards. Ordinary patrols had changed to arcane guards. During the night, there would be magic brooms doing most of the maintenance. It was almost entirely self-sustaining, keeping the beautiful city intact.

When Li Yao arrived, he found that all the members of the team had arrived…
