Xiao Buli looked at Gao Baina's attributes and thought to himself, "No wonder he's such a ruthless businessman, proficient in both renovation and aging techniques, but only diocre in his main skills like appraisal and calculation. However, for him, such an NPC could be quite useful."
The level of freedom in this ga is so open that relying solely on fighting monsters and completing quests to earn Ga Coins is clearly too limiting. If one has the ti, they can definitely use business skills to make money, which would undoubtedly be much faster than his current thod of earning.
This is evident from the fact that the Xuanwu Group could provide the company with a large amount of Gold Coins. Previously, he couldn't devote himself entirely to this aspect like the Xuanwu Group did, but with Gao Baina's help, it would be different.
He could completely turn Gao Baina into his money-making machine, continuously providing financial support, which wouldn't be any less effective than having an extra hand in battle.
With this in mind, Xiao Buli started to look at the detailed descriptions of Gao Baina's few skills.
Renovation Technique: Spends certain materials to renovate a piece of equipnt, giving it a 'brand new' prefix.
Aging Skill: Spends certain materials to age a piece of equipnt, giving it an 'ancient' prefix.
Appraisal Skills: Identifies the true quality and approximate value of an item, only effective on items no higher than the skill's appraisal level.
ntal Calculation Skills: The ability to quickly calculate profit margins, a professional skill used in comrcial planning.
Appraisal Skills can reveal the true value of looted items, which is a very useful skill. Aside from equipnt, if one wishes to auction, appraisal can be used to eliminate those low-value loots.
ntal Calculation Skills, on the other hand, can be used for buying and reselling at the auction house, and as for the Aging and Renovation, they're incredibly powerful. Item prefixes are extrely useful attributes that can often add additional effects to equipnt.
Xiao Buli was familiar with the ga's equipnt prefixes. Most low-level blue equipnt could be judged by its prefix to indicate its attributes, like the 'sturdy' leather chest armour he was wearing. With the 'sturdy' prefix, the additional attribute was physique, and other attributes followed in a similar way.
'Light' adds speed.
'Exquisite' adds agility.
'Heavy' adds strength.
'Solid' adds stamina.
'Gorgeous' adds charm, and so on.
Being able to add prefixes to equipnt also ans adding extra attributes, which undoubtedly increases the value of the equipnt. Although it requires materials, as long as done properly, these two skills can indeed be called divine skills for making money.
Thinking this, Xiao Buli felt that today's greatest gain was not in Gold Coins or equipnt but in this seemingly useless yet very useful NPC hireling.
However, skills are worthless if not used. Since Gao Baina was already his hireling, Xiao Buli didn't hold back. After everyone else had left, Xiao Buli took Gao Baina to the tavern, "Gao Baina, help appraise this sword, how much is it worth?"
While speaking, he traded the 'Soul Slayer's Blade' to Gao Baina.
Gao Baina took it and fondled the blade of the Soul Slayer's sword in an indecent manner, and a white light imdiately flashed on his hands.
Gao Baina pondered for a mont and said, "Made from cold iron, with Mysterious Gold bones, this sword can slay Spirit Body Ghosts, and it possesses spirituality. However, its sharpness is average. If it ends up in the hands of an ordinary warrior, it's value would be average, and if it falls into the hands of a connoisseur, it would be an unequivocal Divine Weapon.
I preliminarily judge its value at 13 Gold 27 Silver."
Xiao Buli took the treasured sword back, thinking that this skill was indeed very useful. He then handed over a ring, "Then how about this ring?"
Gao Baina took it, felt it for a while, and once again, a white light flashed in his hands.
Gao Baina spoke as soon as he took it, "With a Spirit Stone core and Refined Gold band, this ring contains the power of an Ancient Fire Source and is an excellent piece of equipnt for Fire Elent spellcasters, also able to strengthen the power of Fire Elent Inner Strength and Special Abilities. I judge its preliminary value at 4 Gold 21 Silver."
Xiao Buli traded the flawless white jade ring as well.
"And this piece?" Gao Baina took it and spent a longer ti appraising it this ti.
"White jade flawless, rich in Spiritual Energy, this ring absorbs the essence of life force and is undoubtedly a top-tier item. I preliminarily judge its value at 17 Gold 34 Silver."
Wow, this Appraisal Skill is really powerful, Xiao Buli thought to himself.
He was enjoying himself when Wu Tao ran in from outside, plopping down next to Xiao Buli with a woeful expression, "I'm in trouble now. The items are stuck in my hands. Boss, you've got to help ."
Xiao Buli asked with a smile, "So Du Yibo doesn't want to buy it?"
"He's only offering two Gold Coins, not a penny more, which is too little. I can't even recover the cost; he really lacks discernnt. Why don't you buy it? You're also a Mage Profession, so it should be useful to you," Wu Tao finished, glancing at Xiao Buli.
Xiao Buli shook his head; he truly wasn't interested in such unorthodox items, but it wouldn't hurt to have Gao Baina estimate the value of the item.
