Chapter Nine 1:10 Exchange Ratio

Fishing rod!

That's right!

Chen Ming opened a fishing rod and a pack of bait in this bronze-level treasure chest!

[Old Fishing Rod (Bronze-level)]

Although the level is not high, it is enough for a fishing enthusiast!

If he remembers correctly, there is a small pond not far from the wooden house.

When he passed by before, he heard the sound of fish rolling in the water!

It indicates that there must be many fish in the lake!

"Perfect! Now there is sufficient water source in the wooden house, what we lack is food!"

Chen Ming's interest was instantly ignited, holding the fishing rod and quickly came to the edge of the pond.

After spreading a small amount of bait to attract fish, he started fishing!

During the fishing process, he heard his private messages ring several times, it seems like many people are mentioning him?

After opening the area chat interface, Chen Ming looked through the messages.

"Family, never go out if you can help it, there are too many wild beasts outside! I luckily killed two, but was unexpectedly attacked by another venomous snake. Now I feel dizzy and can't see clearly!"

"Good luck upstairs, being poisoned in this environment means certain death!"

"When exploring in the wild, not only pay attention to your surroundings but also watch your head and feet. I was attacked by a pangolin, and there is a blood mark directly scratched on the right side of my body!"

"I'm also injured, bleeding profusely, is Chen Ming there? Urgently need some healing bandages! @Chen Ming"

"I told you not to buy them before, now you know the importance of healing bandages, right?"

"Chen Ming, don't sell to him, this person is from the Hungry Tiger Alliance! He insulted you last night, not a good guy @Chen Ming."

"Don't do this! I will leave the alliance now, I want to live! Please give me some healing bandages!"

"..."

It seems that not only the number of wild animals has increased significantly on his side, but the situation on other players' sides is not good either.

Many people are getting injured in battles!

Those who previously mentioned him are mostly in urgent need of healing bandages!

He originally planned to make a fortune in the evening.

After all, everyone fought against wild beasts during the day, obtaining numerous treasure chests and good items.

They would definitely be rich by the evening!

But seeing these players suffering, he decided to expedite his plan.

There's no choice!

If he doesn't sell healing bandages, these players might die! Then he won't benefit either!

After a moment of thought, he set up the fishing rod in front of him and quickly ran back to his wooden house.

He started mass-producing healing bandages.

Bronze-level... Bronze-level... Silver-level... Bronze-level... Gold-level... Bronze-level...

As the wood blocks were consumed, one healing bandage after another was produced.

Each bandage is one meter long.

Thanks to the bonus of the exquisite workbench, some gold-level healing bandages were made!

[Healing Bandage (Gold-level): Quickly recover injuries, astonishing effect, a rare item in battles!]

After picking out all the silver and gold-level bandages, he started listing the bronze-level bandages one by one. After confirming, he sent a message on the area chat interface.

[Chen Ming: Healing bandages are now listed for exchange, friends who want to exchange can do so themselves!]

Once this message appeared, the notification sound by his ears never stopped.

All trades were successful!

Barrage appeared quickly on the area chat interface once again.

"What? A meter-long healing bandage costs ten wood blocks, isn't this too expensive?"

"Yeah, is Chen Ming taking advantage of the situation?"

"Haha, some people are still complaining here, others are quickly grabbing them next to us!"

"You guys, why is your speed so fast! I've been trying for a while and only got one piece!"

"You still have a piece! I didn't even grab one, it's too difficult."

"Hahaha, I grabbed three pieces, my speed after being single for twenty-six years, who can compete with me?"

"Chen Ming, why did you sell it to me at a higher price? Others are selling for ten wood blocks, why am I charged a hundred? Discrimination?"

"..."

Many players who were feeling the prices were too high were shocked when they saw the last person's message.

A hundred pieces! It seems that they thought ten pieces were acceptable!

Soon, sharp-minded individuals noticed the problem: "Bro, are you from the Hungry Tiger Alliance?"

"Yeah, but I went to bed early last night, I didn't even participate in anything against Chen Ming! I only found out about this after I woke up."

"In that case, there you have it. With the Hungry Tiger Alliance treating Chen Ming like that, how could he possibly treat them well? I advise you to quit the Hungry Tiger Alliance soon, otherwise you never know how you'll end up!"

"I see, I can't stand this alliance anymore! If it weren't for those two wood blocks, I wouldn't have stayed in this lousy alliance. The alliance leader always makes empty promises, using persuasion tactics, and offers no development suggestions!"

It is daytime now, and many people are paying attention to the situation in the area chat.

Naturally, everyone noticed these conversations.

After weighing the pros and cons, many members of the Hungry Tiger Alliance chose to leave.

Leaving now is a timely stop-loss.

This way, when Chen Ming sells healing bandages again, they can still compete.

With a large number of members leaving, the leader of the Hungry Tiger Alliance, Li Feng, was furious!

He had developed these people with great effort, and the number of members originally reached three hundred, but in just ten minutes or so, over a hundred members have left!

The Hungry Tiger Alliance has become an object that many players avoid.

"Damn you, Chen Ming!"

Li Feng slammed a fist heavily on the nearby tree, blaming all these consequences on Chen Ming!

It's all Chen Ming's fault for not accepting his recruitment and even looking down on him!

Now he is specifically targeting the Hungry Tiger Alliance!

It's really despicable!

What about him? Is there a problem?

Yes, but it can be completely ignored!

"If the leader doesn't stabilize morale now, everyone will leave!"

Li Ran had put all his eggs in the Hungry Tiger Alliance basket, so naturally, he didn't want to see it decline.

Li Feng took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, he still had the intelligence he needed.

He understood that everyone in the alliance values the healing bandages a lot.

Since they couldn't buy them from Chen Ming, he would buy them from others.

Even if he has to pay double or triple the price! At least he must stabilize the remaining alliance members.

On the other side.

After Chen Ming withdrew all the completed trades, he started making healing bandages again.

With a one-to-ten exchange ratio, the wood blocks were now overflowing.

He was making the healing bandages to exchange for some rarer resources.

After exchanging enough, Chen Ming walked out of the wooden house, ready to head to the edge of the pond.

Just as he took a step out, he was attracted by a tender sprout beside him.

[Man-Eating Flower Tender Sprout: The newly sprouted tender sprout of a man-eating flower is its weakest moment, absorbing the essence of flesh and blood can accelerate its growth!]

Essence of flesh and blood?!

Chen Ming soon realized and took out a piece of rat meat from his dimensional backpack.

This was the piece of meat he collected while clearing the surrounding wild animals earlier.

Since he could hardly stomach rat meat, now it could be put to good use.

The tiny sprout, after sensing the rich essence of flesh and blood from the rat meat, actively entwined itself around the meat, slowly absorbing the energy within the meat.

The absorption speed was not fast, it seemed that it would take an hour or even longer to fully absorb the entire piece of meat!

After observing for a moment, Chen Ming continued walking towards the edge of the pond.

When he reeled in his fishing line again, he found that the bait on the hook had been nibbled clean!

He was a step too late!

He reattached the bait, and cast the line back into the pond.

Within a short second, there was a sudden force on the fishing rod.

Is he going to catch a fish?
