I Live on the Land in Global Games

Chapter 81 - 81 80 The Devious Merchant Mu Ying81: Chapter 80: The Devious Merchant Mu Ying 81: Chapter 80: The Devious Merchant Mu Ying “Want to take a look?

I have some hair dyeing magic potions of rather rare colors.

This bottle is milk tea color, this one is ice blue, and this one, pink purple – all are colors that make you look fair but are rare to find, and my shop is the only place you’ll find them!”

Mu Ying could tell at a glance that this pink-haired witch was an enthusiast for hair dyeing, and her taste was quite bold.

When the pink-haired witch saw the girl in the school uniform, she didn’t expect much.

What good stuff could a little witch still in school have?

Everyone could make hair dyeing magic potions, and they were mostly basic colors like brown, too plain for her liking.

But upon hearing the series of unheard colors mentioned, she instantly became interested.

“What are all these colors you’re talking about?

Do you have samples?”

Mu Ying nodded repeatedly, well-prepared, “This is wild boar hair that I’ve dyed with the hair dyeing magic potions...”

“...” There was no need for wild boar hair, really.

The pink-haired witch tried her best to ignore the essence of the colorful strands of hair; she had to admit these colors were novel, and she wanted to try every one!

“What color is this?”

“Pink brown, especially suits your temperament.”

“And this one?”

“Gray pink, this one’s not bad either.

Opening sale, a package deal for pink hues, usually 90 silver coins, now only 66.”

Mu Ying found that this witch particularly liked the pink series of hair dyeing magic potions, which was just what her hair dye potions were mostly about – pink, blue, and white hues, only with an abundance of variants in each series.

Just the pink series had six varieties: pink brown, pink purple, gray pink, pink gold, pink orange, and cherry blossom pink.

“A discount of over twenty silver coins?

That really is a good deal, but it’s still quite expensive.

The pink hair dyeing magic potion I use on my hair only costs 8 silver coins per bottle.

Could you make it a bit cheaper?”

Although she felt these colors were indeed prettier than any she had seen, bold yet natural, she didn’t just want the few shades of pink, but wanted to try them all.

She also wanted to save some money to buy other things; the coins she carried were running low.

“Sister, these magic potions are quite difficult to concoct, and the ingredients aren’t easy to collect.

There’s only one batch of each color, and I don’t know if I can find the same ingredients to make identical ones next time.

I’m planning to earn some money from this to establish my own dwelling...” Mu Ying said with an expression of difficulty.

The pink-haired witch immediately felt an empathy, recalling her own similarly tough days, but her pocket didn’t allow her to be generous.

She touched her coin purse, “Ah, I won’t lie to you, sister, I don’t have enough money.

How about this: I’ll buy all your magic potions, but could you also give a discount on the blue series and white series?

Make it the same bundle price as the pink series, 11 silver coins per bottle.”

Mu Ying did some quick calculations and agreed with a face of “heartache,” packaging all the hair dyeing magic potions very slowly.

The pink-haired witch felt she had gotten a great deal, saving 4 silver coins per bottle, and with a total of 18 bottles, rounding off, she had saved about 60 silver coins.

Afraid that the little witch would change her mind, she quickly counted out 20 gold coins and handed them over, then walked away with the magic potions.

“Hey!

You still need 2 silver coins in change!”

Mu Ying’s outstretched hand lingered until the pink-haired witch’s figure disappeared at the cave entrance, then she pulled her hand back, her expression of distress completely gone.

She immediately took out another set of hair dyeing magic potions identical to the previous ones from her pack and placed them on the table.

The ingredients for these magic potions were common wildflowers found on the hill behind the school, easy to find.

“Hehe, a roaring start, huh?

Witches are kind of cute, isn’t it basic practice for merchants to hike prices before offering discounts?”

She counted the glittering coins, noticing that the 20 gold coins had three different patterns, probably issued by three different kingdoms, and looked larger than real-world coins, quite heavy.

And the exchange rate between gold and silver coins was only 1:10.

Mu Ying glanced at the conversion information for the gold coins.

[Rose Kingdom Coins]

[Function: Currency of the Emerald World]

[Physical conversion: 1 Source Power/10 coins]

[Physical Effect: A valuable precious metal currency for collection]

[Source Power Conversion: Non-convertible]

Obviously, the gold coins converted out were not the kind used in the Doomsday Game, nor could they be converted into Source Power.

“Ah, obtaining Source Power in the Emerald World is too difficult!”

Mu Ying sighed, as she still hadn’t found anything in this world that could be converted into Source Power.

At this time, the fifty tirelessly working “source power production machines” in the Square World seemed particularly precious and had contributed about five to six hundred Source Power to her during this period.

“Gulp~” She poured herself a glass of sparkling water out of boredom and drank it.

After a glass of sparkling water, she felt more invigorated, “Burp~”

Mu Ying’s mouth was slightly open as she made awkward eye contact with a passing witch.

“...” Does this person not make any sound while walking?

“Burp~ Would you like a cup of Witch’s Happy Water?

It’s one silver coin for a large cup, and it’s especially invigorating!”

Even burping couldn’t stop her from selling her product; this witch had quite noticeable dark circles and seemed to be in much need of a pick-me-up.

“Happy Water?

The happiness of burping?” The witch’s gaze fell on the bubbly brown drink and questioned its essence.

This customer was a bit tricky!

But Mu Ying had confidence in her Witch’s Happy Water, especially the kind with ice cubes.

“This is a newly popular beverage from the human side, you can try it, and if you don’t like it, it’s free.”

Without waiting for her answer, Mu Ying poured her a large cup right away.

The witch, who intended to refuse, hadn’t responded yet when a cup of the cool beverage was already in her hands.

Cold?

Well, might as well give it a try.

She took a small sip, hmm, it was somewhat sweet, icy, and suddenly something seemed to explode on her tongue!

“It’s even better when you drink it in large gulps!” Mu Ying reminded mischievously.

At her suggestion, the witch took a big gulp, “Burp~”

“...”

“Haha, doesn’t it make you happy?

Burp~”

Mu Ying laughed cheerfully, taking a big swallow of her own Happy Water.

The witch’s cheeks flushed slightly, and she threw a silver coin onto Mu Ying’s stall before quickly walking away.

That evening, Mu Ying made a killing with the Happy Water.

Besides the initial hair-dyeing fanatic, she sold a few more bottles of the hair dyeing magic potion, but surprisingly, what she thought would be the most popular product, Binding Vines, was a flop.

It wasn’t as popular as it was among her seniors and classmates.

Indeed, witches who had graduated usually had their own homes and were stronger; such vines couldn’t stop witches who could fly on brooms and were only effective against humans and small beasts.

It also proved that witches were indeed willing to spend money for enjoyment.

As it was approaching dawn, Rosie came over as promised, “How did it go?

Did you make some money?”

Mu Ying had already packed everything up and, with a jingle of the money pouch in her hand, chuckled.

“It’s almost daylight; if we head back now, we can catch the tail end of the market,” Rosie said, leading her by the hand as they walked.

These little witches, who hadn’t yet graduated, generally could only rely on selling things at the Four Seasons Market to earn some money.

They didn’t have the advantages of those grown-up witches who had already passed their witchcraft trials and had traveled outside the Witch Forest.

In order to establish their own homes, money had to be spent in every aspect, and it was necessary to save up for the witchcraft trial in advance, so every coin had to be used sparingly.

The tail end of the market was a good place to buy bargains.
