Chapter 17 Part2

G.o.d! To Xie Mingzhe's surprise, such powerful legends had come to meet him. When he was reborn in this world, he searched Star Card Storm while in the hospital, and read some comments about these two legends. Nie Yuandao seemed to be as well-known as Tang Muzhou and had extensive popularity.
Xie Mingzhe felt flattered by their personal presence, saying hurriedly, "It's nice to meet you, legends."
Shan Lan smiled and said with a soft voice, "Are you stunned by our images? These are our smurf accounts that we created casually. The compet.i.tion is around the corner, so we'd better not log on to our main accounts."
"Well, I see." Recovering from the shock, Xie Mingzhe found that Legend Lan had a very gentle voice. The disordered ID numbers and the image of bizarre old men showed that these accounts were surely their smurf accounts, but how could you create smurf accounts so casually that the images actually looked uglier than his Uncle Chubby's.
Nie Yuandao asked in a deep and steady voice again, "How many [Wu Song]s have you made?"
"I sold one [Wu Song] to Shuang Shuang. I have ten new [Wu Song]s waiting to be sold." Xie Mingzhe answered.
"That is to say, you have 11 cards?" Nie Yuandao paused and said, "I want to buy all your [Wu Song]s and its production copyright. Please give me your offer."
"???" Xie Mingzhe looked blank.
Seeing that 'Uncle Chubby' was confused, Shan Lan explained softly, "If you transfer the copyright to Legend Nie, you won't be allowed to make this card in the future, instead, Legend Nie will copy this card."

Xie Mingzhe understood, scratching his head and asking, "How much money can I get?"
Although he wouldn't be allowed to make [Wu Song]s after transferring the copyright, he could accept it if the price was reasonable. All in all, he could make other cards and earn more through selling the copyright. Besides, selling cards one by one consumed too much energy and time.
Having this in mind, Xie Mingzhe said, "Legend Nie, give me your offer for reference."
Nie Yuandao said directly, "300,000 for the copyright. What do you think?"
10 game coins could exchange for 1 crystal coin, so 300,000 game coins could exchange for 30,000 crystal coins. He could live on this money for several years!
Legend Nie was a big shot who wouldn't lie about the price. Thinking of his 200 crystal coins in his bank card, Xie Mingzhe answered happily, "OK. Deal!"
Looking at Huan Yue, Nie Yuandao said, "President, please pay him first, I'll transfer the money to you later."
Huan Yue nodded and sent him a transaction request directly.
Xie Mingzhe saw Huan Yue swiftly typing 300,000 in the transaction column.
Seven digits; 3,000,000?
Xie Mingzhe was stunned, "Didn't he say 300,000?"
Huan Yue explained, “The recent exchange rate between game currency and live currency is about 10:1. 300,000 that Legend Nie said is live currency, which is 3,000,000 when exchanged for game currency.”
Xie Mingzhe, “…………………………”
The poor boy, with only 200 crystal coins in his bank card, suddenly saw so many 0s that he felt dazzled.
Shan Lan thought this simple-minded fat uncle was very interesting. He smiled and asked, “Uncle Chubby, don't you understand the value of this card?”
Xie Mingzhe touched his nose with embarra.s.sment, “To be honest, I just started playing this game a few days ago. I don't know much about the card market. I previously went to the auction where Legend Tang's [Tuberose] was sold for 660,000 gold coins. But the card's Health and Defense are very high. Even if my card is upgraded to level 70, its Health and Defense will still be very low. Is the price provided by Legend Nie too high…”
Although he lacked money, he couldn't take such huge sums of money without qualms. He had to figure things out first.
Shan Lan explained patiently, “No. The price of Tang Muzhou's [Tuberose] is only for that single card, and the price we're offering you is for the copyright buyout. Moreover, your card is not a general battle card, but a one-time function card. It seems that you don't know that the instant death effect is a new skill that has only recently been added to the database. In every match, a player can only bring one card with the instant death effect, which is highly focused in targeting certain cards and can instakill an opponent's card unexpectedly to disrupt the opponent's rhythm. This is a tactical card, so attributes like Health and Defense don't matter; the key is its additional skill.”
Hearing his words, Xie Mingzhe was very shocked. He had thought that the cards he made and the instant death effect were very common! He had deliberately visited the black market to investigate the price before selling his cards. But it actually turned out that the two stall owners in the black market didn't know its value either?
Looking at Uncle Chubby's shocked face, Shan Lan continued to say softly, “Uncle Chubby, my Shifu doesn't wish to buy the copyright of this card for fear of it. His set of playing cards has dozens of beast cards, and [White Tiger] is just one of them. Even if someone else uses [Wu Song] to go against him, it doesn't matter – our more important purpose is to make you aware of your talent and hire you as a professional card designer for the Adjudication Club. "
Nie Yuandao was too serious and many people were afraid of him, so when a negotiation was needed, he usually handed the task over to his gentle apprentice. Hearing Shan Lan's words, he interjected in a low voice, “I have told our club high-level officials about your things. If you, Uncle Chubby, agree to accept our offer, you can work for the Adjudication Club starting next week, with a monthly salary of 20,000. Every time you design a strong card, the club will give you a high bonus.”
Xie Mingzhe, “……………”
Happiness came too suddenly, and Xie Mingzhe felt like he was dreaming.
