Interstellar Travel: Becoming a Dress-Up Game Designer

Chapter 279

These were practically his two favorite things, one of which was the God of Wealth. He would burn incense and pray every day and receive copper coins, silver ingots, and gold ingots. Although it wasn't much, he just liked it.

Someone had already set up a God of Wealth Pavilion, and he didn't want his player pavilion to be called the God of Wealth Pavilion because it would cause him to squander money. Look at the God of Wealth, how much money does he give away every day? Everyone who worships him gives money, it makes my wallet feel like it can't handle it.

Pixiu is great, it only takes in and doesn't give out, hehe.

After the Pixiu Pavilion was established, all it took was a single announcement in the world chat, and suddenly hundreds of thousands of players were making and saving money. They couldn't handle it all, they simply couldn't.

This player even had several friends conduct the assessment, leaving the other players completely bewildered. They knew getting into the player guild was difficult, but they didn't expect it to be this hard!

The assessment began in the form of an exam, with over 800 questions, including more than 100 short-answer questions and only 200 multiple-choice questions. The questions shocked the interstellar community for generations; they were incredibly stingy, with high thresholds at every step.

The questions are all about how to save money and how to make money. Half of them are questions from real life, and the other half are questions from Qingfengyi. The question setter believes that people who are keen on saving money in real life are more capable of saving money in the game.

Then, the first 20,000 players were selected to join the Player Pavilion. There were no specific tasks within the pavilion, only two: earning and saving money. Players who passed through multiple rounds of selection were all passionate about saving money; they wanted to save every single penny!

what?

Does saving money hinder economic development and currency circulation?

What does it have to do with him? They just like to save money!

Watching their savings grow steadily is enough to make them smile, especially for players who love saving money in real life but whose earning power doesn't match. They prefer to save money in Qingfengyi because it's not that hard to make money here, there aren't many traps that require mandatory spending, and there's no capital control, allowing them to perfectly achieve their dream of saving money.

This group of people thus became the wealthiest player group in Qingfengyi, surpassing even Jinyumantang in terms of resources. Jinyumantang was the second richest, which is why Sister Xunmei was happy to let Jinyumantang invest in Bajunge.

The sale will take place at the end of the event, and everyone is currently busy collecting event props and setting up their stalls. Many of the items they're selling are also props from this event; rare props from previous events definitely won't be sold, and any extras will be snapped up by collectors during the event's break.

There's so much to see at this event!

There's absolutely no need to worry about not having enough stalls.

Three days after the event ended, data analysts compiled detailed information on the quantity, themes, and rarity of the carved walnuts. The wealthy buyers eagerly awaited this report, their excitement akin to their fortunes doubling.

They meticulously studied the data reports, figuring out which works were easier to acquire, at what price was the most cost-effective to purchase one, and which required taking a slight loss to get their hands on. They considered many factors, while wealthy individuals who simply liked the work didn't care about the price; they would buy it as long as someone dared to make an offer.

Only collectors who aim for premium pricing need to consider these things and carefully analyze data. They may even unknowingly employ a group of data analysts who, if their analysis is good, can acquire the most valuable works at the lowest cost.

When it comes to data analysis, Deng Yijun is undoubtedly the best; his expertise is unmatched. He personally analyzed the data and quickly extracted all the information, first separating out items whose owners were unclear, and then sending his subordinates to inquire about them. Three days was a bit rushed, but fortunately, he had Jin Yu Man Tang and Ba Jun Ge under his command, plus the acquisition information from the trading channel; with these three approaches combined, the efficiency was still acceptable.

Secondly, the easiest items to acquire are the items in this event. There are so many items this time, plus player-made ones, it's impossible to keep track. With so many items, it's extremely easy to miss something; you'll need information and a discerning eye. The price and quality requirements for these items are not high, so they can be released. However, accurate data analysis is crucial; otherwise, many valuable items will be missed.

As a discerning collector, he couldn't bear to see treasures slip away. He didn't collect based on monetary value, but rather on the joy of collecting.

Then there are the treasure-level items. These items are not discontinued, but they are of the highest quality!

However, items from Qingfengyi are basically discontinued if they are not sold in the store.

Finally, there are limited-edition items, extremely rare, belonging to at least the top 1,000 items in terms of quantity. These items are very difficult to acquire because they have official anti-counterfeiting codes and labels, so you don't have to worry about receiving fakes. The only concern is not being able to buy them.

You don't have to buy every rare item; prioritize buying things you haven't obtained yet.

Deng Yijun's task for himself was to acquire these props; the rest could be handled by the other members. These acquired items had to be for his own private collection, not something that belonged to the Golden Jade Hall.

Lin Shuying's nut carving event was incredibly detailed and featured a vast number of props, with thousands of pieces dedicated to the underworld. There were also many other nut carvings on themes such as heaven, immortals, the martial arts world of China, natural landscapes, animals, and human figures—each one a masterpiece, dazzling the eyes of the players.

With two months and a visit to the underworld, there's a lot to do, and players who want to complete everything will have a very tight schedule. Therefore, many of the carved walnuts are simply unobtainable, even those that aren't rare or discontinued.

In addition, this event also presents an opportunity for players who collect items and resell them. They don't need to find buyers themselves; they can simply put their items out there and negotiate the price. How convenient!

After carefully selecting and finalizing the items submitted by their partners, Qingfengyi finalized 120 pieces. The centerpieces included a peacock and pine embroidery screen, a white crane amidst clouds and mountains embroidery, a bright red Song-style jacket with a butterfly and flower motif, embroidered shoes with a qilin and tiger head, an amber-colored pixiu head bracelet, and a solid red pleated skirt overcoat.

Six pieces were selected as the final highlights. It's not that the other pieces were poorly designed; they were all designed by Lin Shu-ying, and everyone thought they were very good. It's just that the workmanship of the others wasn't as good as these, and they had a few more flaws.

The skill required for craftsmanship is different from other skills; without years of experience and accumulation, you really can't produce anything good. In embroidery, the loose threads, seams, stitches, flaws, pattern details, overall quality, and even bloodstains are all crucial. The same goes for clothing; even a slight misalignment can make it uncomfortable to wear.

Why do wealthy people like to make private orders?

Because custom-made items can fit every corner, angle, length and other details perfectly to fit the body shape, they are not only comfortable to wear, but also look elegant.

Furthermore, regarding the beading and carving techniques, let's set aside the design itself—Lin Shuying is responsible for the design, so we won't elaborate. Just consider the details: unsuitable bead colors, improper cord weaving, and flawed beads can all affect the overall quality of a bracelet. Collector-grade items should live up to their quality; they must not only be beautiful but also exquisitely crafted and flawless.
