Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master - Chapter 86
Chapter 86: 86
After Omega introduced the real world currency conversion , many money making fanatics joined the game ….. There were buisnessmen ranging from people who worked hard in the game just to earn 300 dollars a day to some who earned 30000 to some who earned 3 million.
Many guilds also supported and employed those buisnessmen. And in a symbiotic relationship , they supported each other , the latter providing funds to the guild becoming a economic backbone , while the latter providing a stable market to conduct buisness and a ready base of players to use as a market to expand.
The most golden of such buisnesses was the True Elites lifestyle store , the amount of money the store made was simply off the charts , as many buisnessmen drooled to aquire the shops.
When the alliance declared its hostility to the True Elites , the lifestyle store was heavily suppressed , however due to its superior products , it still made a daily profit , despite of running at 10% capacity.
However the sharks smelled blood. As buisnessmen kept hounding Rudra to sell a portion of the buisness off ….
With the pressure of the supression mounting day by day , the demands of the buisnessmen became more and more outrageous. The prices they offered in exchange of shares of the Lifestyle store became dirt cheap.
Rudra just snickered at their offers , 5 dollars a share for 50,000 shares at a 50% stake , lol , i spend more money on my cars mentainance than that , Rudra thought.
However it was true that the supression of the lifestyle stores could not go on any longer ….. His guild needed money , now more than ever , the advanced mana potion needed to be introduced , now more than ever.
Rudra coldly declined any and every buisnessman approaching him , this resulted in most buisnesses BlackListing Rudra from buying from their stores, and they went a step forward blacklisting all True Elites members along with Rudra.
Rudra laughed at this childishness ….. He thought ‘ Fine , you all want to make a enemy of me , ill remember your names! ‘.
73 shop owners had blackflagged Rudra and 65 of them had blackflagged the True Elites also.
The guild members faced another huge obstacle due to this ….. First they were always hunted on sight , levlling was aldready difficult , now even buying materials became a challenge… It was truly a tough time to be a elite.
Two herbs were needed for the advanced mana potion , the Fragrant herb and the Rare herb. These herbs could be found in the wild and were widely collected by solo adventurers and small parties to sell for side income.
They were sold in a big marketplace in PurpleHaze city , the place was a exclusive of the capital , more of like a modern day flea market. Where tourists and locals shopped for local specialties and cheap prices.
Rudra went to the open market called the Bazaar to buy his goods instead. The Bazaar was the place where anyone could set up a stall for 3 silver coins , and was divided into all kinds of sections for sellers and buyers to choose.
Rudra went into the alchemy section to buy the two main herbs required for the brewing of the advanced mana potion …. Many did not know this , however all three mana potions , the basic , the intermediate and the advanced , had the same ingredients ….. It was just the potion formula and refinement method that changed the result.
With the advanced mana potion formula in hand , and the same basic ingredients , Rudra’s profit in this endeavour was sure to be astronomic.
This was why Rudra had come to this bazaar to purchase Herbs in bulk, either Fragrant Herbs or Rare Herbs.
After making a round through the bazaar and investigating the general prices of Herbs, Rudra began advertising his need as he typed his message through the trade channel forum , “Buying Fragrant Herbs, 40 Copper per stack; Rare Herbs, three Silver per stack! Will buy as many as you have!”
The trade channel forum was a unique channel only available in bazaars. Any players in the bazaar could receive the messages sent through this channel. However, players who wished to post their messages needed to pay a fee of 1 Gold per message. Though the length of each message was limited to 100 words, it was a valuable promotion tool.
With this, Rudra could save himself a lot of trouble.
The amount and prices of Herbs at each Stall varied greatly. If Rudra had to visit every Stall in the bazaar, even if he exhausted himself to death, he would only acquire a small amount. Hence, rather than haggling with every Stall owner, he might as well offer to purchase Herbs at an average price. Naturally, interested players would hunt him down to sell their goods.
Shortly after Rudra ‘s announcement, a large number of players rushed towards him. Thankfully he had his mask equipped and was dressed in common clothes , no robe no armour. No helmet.

He was nothing like how he usually looked .
“Boss, how many Herbs do you want to buy?” A burly looking man asked
“Big Brother , look! I have excellent quality Herbs! I can even lower the price if you buy them in bulk!” A cute girl with a pony said
The players that had hurried over all looked at Rudra like hungry wolves. They crowded around him, rushing to sell their Herbs. Their intensity far exceeded Rudra’s initial expectations.
“Alright, alright, no need to rush. All of you, line up and trade with me.” Rudra smiled as he motioned for the crowd to calm down.
Sure enough, players’ enthusiasm in the capital city of PurpleHaze is a lot more intense.
However, after giving it some thought, their enthusiasm was only natural. Players were currently busy with leveling and were not particularly enthusiastic about Lifestyle classes. Although Guilds nurtured their own alchemists, the Guilds could easily supply the amount of Herbs their alchemists needed. They didn’t need to purchase any. Only with the unique situation of the True Elites , who had no official merchant tie ups and no parties to farm for resources that such a situation arose.
More importantly, the crowd was so excited because the demand for Herbs was usually quite low. As useful potion recipes were extremely rare, demand for Herbs had dropped even further. In addition, Hazelgroove Kingdom was not a Herb-poor kingdom, resulting in the prices of Herbs remaining relatively low.
Despite there being 20 Herbs in each stack, Fragrant Herbs only sold for 40 Copper per stack. Even Rare Herbs only sold for three Silver per stack. One could imagine just how worthless Herbs were.
Yet, even with such low prices, few people were willing to purchase Herbs, which explained why everyone was so excited to see Rudra.
Players would frequently encounter Herbs while adventuring, and they would usually collect these Herbs to sell in bulk at a later time.
Now, these players’ actions benefited Rudra.
In a short moment, Rudra had purchased 2,000 stacks of Fragrant Herbs and 200 stacks of Rare Herbs, spending 14 Gold in total. To other players, this might be an astronomical sum, but to Rudra, this was only a drop in the bucket.
“Sorry, but my bag’s full. Everyone, please wait here for a while. I’ll come back to purchase more some other day .” Rudra hurriedly turned and ran towards the Won Knight mansion.
Reluctance filled the crowd’s eyes as they watched Rudra’s departing figure. However, they surely could not forcibly make him buy the goods. They were helpless.
However Rudra , in this single exchange bought enough materials for about 10,000 advanced mana potions fulfilling his target.
