Chapter 114 Taking a Gamble, From Bicycle to Motorcycle

Wu Chenhui spent the entire day in his dorm room staring at the Yangbei Forum, doing his business. He kept refreshing the page, so he quickly noticed when GG on Xianyu.com went live.

He had previously complained about the secondhand section of Yangbei Forum, saying it didn't even have a search function. So when he saw that there was a new secondhand trading website, he clicked on it immediately.

"This website has a search function!"

Wu Chenhui immediately noticed the search function on the website, which pleased him greatly, making him feel that it would be much more convenient to do this business now.

But after half a day, he lost his joy.

Wu Chenhui immediately registered an account on Xianyu.com and posted a product listing for buying experience vouchers for 2 yuan each, as well as a product listing for selling experience vouchers for 3.8 yuan each.

Half a day later, he discovered something: whether buying or selling coupons, his frequency had decreased.

It's harder to receive coupons, and it's also harder to sell them.

After noticing this situation, Wu Chenhui made a point of asking the other party where they had seen the information and contacted him when he was buying and selling coupons on several occasions. The other party always said that they saw it on the Yangbei Forum.

In other words, he didn't receive a single coupon on Xianyu.com, nor did he sell a single coupon.

"This is outrageous!"

In a fit of anger, Wu Chenhui removed the two product listings he had posted on Xianyu.com, but things didn't get better. He still had more difficulty receiving coupons and selling them.

After calming down, Wu Chenhui also realized the situation: he no longer used Xianyu.com, but the individual sellers who sold coupons and the real buyers who actually bought coupons to use were still using Xianyu.com, and the number of users was probably increasing.

Previously, on the Yangbei Forum, it was very time-consuming for genuine buyers to find cheap coupons because they had to browse through posts one by one; and because posts by genuine individual sellers tended to sink, it was also very costly for these sellers to sell trial coupons at a relatively high price.

Therefore, Wu Chenhui and his group were able to acquire coupons at low prices and sell them at high prices.

However, Xianyu.com eliminated this cost by using more efficient transactions.

With this Xianyu.com, real individual buyers who have already started using Xianyu.com can easily buy cheap coupons, and real individual sellers can easily sell coupons at a relatively high price.

After realizing this, Wu Chenhui gave a wry smile.

"I thought this new website was a good thing, but it turns out it's the end of the world —"

He felt like it was already dark.

Xianyu.com is newly launched and not many people are using it yet, so he can still receive and sell coupons. It's foreseeable that as more and more people use Xianyu.com, it will become increasingly difficult for him to receive and sell coupons.

"So this business can't continue?"

Wu Chenhui thought this way, but he was still stubbornly unwilling to give up and fell into deep thought.

After thinking for a long time, he gradually figured something out and felt that he wasn't so desperate anymore.

It seems like it's still playable.

Wu Chenhui clearly remembers that on the first day he collected experience vouchers, he bought them for 1 yuan and sold them for 2 yuan.

而现在，大家已经普遍是2块收，3块8卖了。就算按照闲余网上那些真实个人卖家的售价，也是2块6到3块卖。

"The price of experience vouchers has been steadily increasing."

Wu Chenhui seemed to be deep in thought.

He was confident that the trial vouchers could fetch more than 4 yuan, after all, he had sold quite a few at that price before.

So, as long as you can get it for less than 4 yuan, and with a little patience, you can wait until the general selling price is above 4 yuan, and you can still make a profit.

Of course, with this change in gameplay, the risks have obviously increased.

But if you ask Wu Chenhui if he'll still play—the answer is definitely yes, he'll continue playing.

"The opportunity to make money is rare; we can't get off now."

Wu Chenhui made up his mind and posted another acquisition notice on Xianyu.com.

He had a premonition that Xianyu.com might replace the second-hand section of Yangbei Forum as the main battleground for experience coupons in the future, so he had to keep up.

When posting information, the website also suggests, "Adding real product information will help you sell your products more effectively."

Wu Chenhui thought about it and actually took out his phone, took a picture of the experience voucher, and uploaded it to his computer, adding it as a product image instead of continuing to use the official uniform material.

After doing all this, Wu Chenhui went to the Yangbei Forum again. After hesitating for a long time, he finally made up his mind and deleted his post about selling trial vouchers.

Since the rules of the game have changed, selling a card for less than 4 yuan now means losing money on each card; any loss is a loss.

Therefore, we are not selling it.

We only buy, we don't sell, we just hoard the goods!

"Take a chance, and your bicycle might turn into a motorcycle!"

Wu Chenhui said this fiercely to encourage himself, feeling his heart racing and thinking it was really exciting.

It was at this moment that Kong Lin returned to his dormitory.

"What? A bicycle turning into a motorcycle? You want to buy a motorcycle?"

Kong Lin asked curiously, then sat down, turned on the computer, and planned to play some games.

"no."

Perhaps due to anxiety and a lack of confidence, Wu Chenhui had a strong urge to confide in others, hoping to gain affirmation and boost his self-confidence. So after hesitating for a while, he couldn't hold back and told Kong Lin about what he had done in the past two days and his analysis of the current situation.

"—Do you think my analysis makes sense?"

Wu Chenhui stared at Kong Lin, hoping to hear a positive answer from Kong Lin, which would give him even more confidence to continue.

After hearing what Wu Chenhui said, Kong Lin's mouth dropped open. He stopped playing the game, stared at Wu Chenhui for a long time, and finally blurted out, "Damn it! So that's why you've been skipping class these past few days!"

That's not what Wu Chenhui wanted to hear. "Do you think my analysis makes sense?"

Kong Lin stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and asked, "How much have you earned these past two days?"

"A little over two hundred. If it weren't for the sudden technical adjustment yesterday, I could have earned even more." Wu Chenhui couldn't help but complain as he spoke. Kong Lin's heart stirred, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "I think your analysis makes a lot of sense."

Wu Chenhui smiled and said, "Right? I think so too." Then he sat back down, feeling more confident.

Kong Lin stared at the XP system's blue sky and white clouds desktop, thought for a while, then quietly opened the Yangbei Forum, logged into his account, and posted a thread in the second-hand section asking for trial vouchers. After that, he also registered an account on the Xianyu website and posted information about buying trial vouchers.

Wu Chenhui worked for two days and earned more than 200 yuan, which tempted him.

Moreover, Wu Chenhui's analysis was reasonable and well-founded, and he also thought so.

This is a low point now, and you only have one chance. It's the last opportunity to get on board. Why not give it a try?

While some people at Yangke University were experiencing their own joys and sorrows, it was already past 5 o'clock when Shen Kang returned to the school. After having a meal, Ma Liang left. He also took He Qiuzhu back to her dormitory and then went back to his own dormitory.

Wang Pan isn't in the dormitory; he's probably studying in study room 302 again.

Jin Chao was sitting in front of Wang Pan's computer, with the Xianyu.com website on the screen.

Shen Kang noticed his computer was on, but Feng Moquan wasn't there, so he asked, "Where's Lao Feng? Did he go out on a deal?"

"Um."

'

Jin Chao turned around, pointed at the computer screen, and said, "Old Shen, I saw a new second-hand trading website on Yangbei Forum called Xianyu.com. Some people have started coming from Yangbei Forum to this website to buy and sell trial vouchers, and the number of people is constantly increasing."

Shen Kang sat down at his desk and replied, "Oh, I know, I started this Xianyu.com. I skipped class this afternoon to work on launching Xianyu.com."

"?"

Jin Chao's expression was a little numb.

Just then, Feng Moquan returned. Seeing Jin Chao's expression, he couldn't help but ask, "Old Jin, what's wrong?"

"That idle website is run by Lao Shen," Jin Chao said expressionlessly.

-

Feng Mo was completely numb.

After a while of feeling numb, I started to feel envious again. I thought to myself, Old Shen is really good at making things happen. First he set up the 302 study room, and now he has set up the Xianyu Internet. I wish I could do these two things myself.

Feng Moquan began to fantasize:

In the second canteen, he was having lunch with Zhong Lin when he casually remarked, "Oh, by the way, didn't you say you wanted to go to study room 302, but are experience vouchers hard to get? Next time, just mention my name; I own study room 302."

Zhong Lin looked surprised. "You actually own study room 302?!"

Then, with an admiring look, she said, "You're so amazing to have come up with this idea, and to have made it so popular!"

He smiled faintly, "It's alright, just something I did on a whim. By the way, didn't you mention in the text message that you bought some clothes that you only wore a few times before they ended up gathering dust in your closet? I made a secondhand marketplace for you, where you can buy and sell used items. It's more convenient than the secondhand section of Yangbei Forum. If you have anything you don't need anymore, you can put it on my secondhand marketplace to sell. You can also look for anything you want to buy there."

Zhong Lin was even more adoring, and a little shy. She clasped her hands together in front of her chest, making her breasts appear even larger and more impressive. "You even made a website for me! I'm so touched, I want to have your babies!" ————

"Hehehehehe————" Feng Moquan couldn't help but laugh out loud as he thought about it, feeling great.

"Old Feng, Old Feng! ————"

""

Jin Chao called out twice before Feng Mo finally snapped out of his daze and quickly said, "I wasn't thinking anything!"

As she spoke, she glanced at Shen Kang with a resentful look, and sighed inwardly. Why wasn't it her who did these things? She had created a persona of a "business tycoon" back then, and damn it, she had actually made Old Shen a business tycoon!
