BIAN QUE whose real name was Gu Ye followed an NPC that was leading him to the office of Yuexing Pavilion's administrator. He was 20 minutes earlier than the meeting time. But he didn't care. He hated it when someone was late. So, he was always punctual. After all, if one hated something, then they should also avoid doing the same thing. Otherwise, they would only look hypocritical. That's why even if the one he's going to meet was just an NPC, he still arrived earlier than expected.
He was here to talk about a business deal with the pavilion's administrator. This was not the first time he had done this. His shop – Potions and Cauldrons – had a lot of cooperation with many in-game businesses. Whether it's owned by a player or the game itself, as long as it's profitable, Gu Ye would not hesitate to cooperate with them.
When he received the invitation for the opening night of the pavilion, his expectation was a bit high. After all, this was the first time that an in-game business sent out invitation to attend its opening. Especially after he learned that a lot of high-profile players were invited. He had also seen the advertisement. He only thought that they put a lot of effects to make the pavilion looked that majestic. But when he really saw the pavilion with his own eyes, he was immediately proven wrong.
It was not only the beauty of the pavilion that attracted him. The service was pretty good. The food was delicious. And the NPCs performing on the stage were superb. Gu Ye knew immediately that this Yuexing Pavilion would be a big hit. That's why he didn't hesitate to talk to the administrator and asked 'her' for a meeting to talk about a possible cooperation.
How could he miss this chance to increase his money?
Gu Ye knew that many players say that he was someone who liked money the best. He didn't mind that kind of reputation. After all, it was the truth.
He was just a poor university student who came from the countryside. Two years ago, when he passed the college entrance examination and went to B City to attend T University, he joined a promo that his room mate introduced to him. He didn't know what it was, but unexpectedly, he won the prize which was a VR helmet for the game Arcadia.
He wasn't familiar with Arcadia but he knew about it. After all, it was the first successful VR game to be launched in the world. He wasn't really interested in it. He was from a poor family and he didn't have the time to casually play games. Even with his scholarship, he still had to work part-time to support himself. He couldn't trouble his parents who still had to take care of his other three siblings.
He was thinking of just selling the VR helmet. But he was tempted to try it out first. Because he might not have a chance to play it again. Well, at least not until he graduated, found a job, and earning a huge load of money.
The first time he entered Arcadia, he was instantly fascinated. It's like he entered a magical world. It was quite the experience of a life time. After that, he became hesitant about selling the VR helmet. Then he learned from his room mate that there's a way for players to earn money inside the game. They could register any type of business, as long as it wouldn't break the guidelines set by the game. Or they could become Blacksmiths or Alchemists and sell their creations.
Obviously, the first one was not very viable for him at that moment. Even if it's virtual, one still needed capital to start a business. And capital he didn't have. His only choice was either to become a Blacksmith or an Alchemist. He didn't hesitate to choose the latter. He was a chemistry major. So, he thought it could help him if he chose the Alchemist class. And facts had proven that his choice was correct.
He only had a 'try it out and let's see' mentality at first. But when he made his first potion and managed to sell it, he felt like he accomplished something big. When he saw the money in his account later that day, he had a premonition that if he continued on and persisted, he could earn more and more money in the future. And he was certainly not wrong about that.
Two years later, he was probably earning way more than an average office worker every month. Not only did it help in his study, he could also send money back home. Now, their small home that could barely house all six of them was now transformed into a modern bungalow. His three siblings could now go to school without any worry. And it was all because of this game.
That's why even if he already earned a lot of money, he still wanted to earn more. Because he was not only supporting himself, but his family as well. He would probably continue doing so until he graduated and found a stable job.
The female NPC who was walking in front of him suddenly stopped, cutting off Gu Ye's thoughts. "Please, distinguished guest," she said, gesturing for him to enter the door she just opened.
Upon entering the door, Gu Ye gave a quick glance inside. It was a simple office with an ancient atmosphere. There was no extra furniture, just those that were needed. He liked this kind of set-up. Simple yet very efficient.
He then turned his gaze to the beautiful black-haired elf sitting behind a mahogany desk. 'She' was wearing a simple red robe, so different from the complicated red robe 'she' wore during the pavilion's opening night. But that still didn't take away from 'her' graceful temperament. If he was a face-control, he would probably stare more and appreciate the beauty in front of him. Sadly, the only thing that could probably move him was money.
The black-haired elf's blue eyes bent into crescent when 'she' saw him. 'She' stood up and said in a gentle voice, "Welcome, distinguished guest."
