It was not that there were no potions or items that could permanently increase attributes in the game. Players who frequented the forum would see them from time to time.
However, those items were almost all mission rewards that could not be traded. Obtaining them depended entirely on luck, and the quantity was very limited.
However, in Katarin's shop called "Premium Shop," the attribute strengthening potions sold could be traded!
When the players in Katarin saw the newly opened shop called "Premium Shop," at first, they thought that the name of the shop was too exaggerated. However, when they entered the shop, they realized that the name of the shop was true to its name!
Strength, Vitality, Agility, and Intelligence. Except for the Spirit Strengthening Potion, potions for the other four attributes were sold!
In addition to these four types of extremely rare potions, the shop also sold some monster potions that they had never seen before!
The Vampire Potion that allowed players to absorb the blood of monsters when attacking, the Night Owl Potion that increased the range of players' vision at night, the Ape Potion that allowed players to gain the ability to climb …
Whether it was the attribute strengthening potions or monster potions, the players who entered the shop first had never seen them before. When they saw these potions, their eyes widened.
Many people wanted to buy them at first sight, but they realized that the price of these rare potions was not cheap.
The four types of attribute strengthening potions cost 50 gold coins per bottle, and the monster potions cost 20 gold coins per bottle!
For many people, the expensive price was not something they could afford. However, when the players who entered realized that all the potions in the shop were sold in limited quantities, and only three bottles of each type were sold, all the potions in the shop were sold out in less than ten minutes.
Soon, the news of Katarin's newly opened shop selling rare potions that could permanently increase attributes spread on the forum. Katarin's territory entered the sights of a large number of players.
It was not the first time that many people had heard of Katarin. Previously, Katarin was a famous PK place that made many people flinch.
However, after hearing the rumors about the Premium Shop and the rare potions that were sold there today, many players realized that Katarin had changed greatly compared to the past.
With the NPC guards, the number of PK players was greatly reduced. There were many good leveling spots in the wild. Moreover, there were no large guilds stationed in Katarin, so the leveling spots in the wild would not be occupied by others.
This alone immediately attracted a large number of players who were looking for a place to level up.
Not to mention, on the forum, there was news that someone bought a Strengthening Potion for 50 gold coins in Katrin's Premium Shop and sold it for 80 gold coins.
The moment the potion was sold, the player who bought it earned 30 gold coins!
30 gold coins!
To many players in the game, this was a huge sum of gold coins!
There was a female NPC salesperson in the Premium Shop. The Attribute Enhancement Potions in the shop were all sold out. However, the players had heard from the NPC that the shop would refresh twice a day at different times. Each time, there would be three to five bottles of each type of potion. Each player could only buy one bottle of Attribute Enhancement Potion from the shop every minute.
When this news spread out, it immediately attracted a large number of players who wanted to come and speculate. The gates of Catrin's territory were instantly filled with people.
"Not bad, not bad."
Chen Mo was very satisfied with the response on the forum.
He opened this shop to increase Katarin's reputation. With the Premium Shop, Katarin's territory would not have to worry about no players going there.
Chen Mo priced the Attribute Enhancement Potions in the Premium Shop at 50 gold coins. This price was not low in Chen Mo's eyes. After all, the price of a recipe was only 300 gold coins. The materials used to make the potion were very rare and expensive. However, the cost of making a bottle of potion was only about 10 gold coins.
Chen Mo could earn 40 gold coins from one bottle of potion.
There was a limit to a player's stamina. Chen Mo could only make about 100 bottles of Attribute Enhancement Potions a day. After distributing them among the four types of potions, he could make 25 bottles of each type of potion a day.
If Chen Mo sold 100 bottles of potions a day, he could earn 4,000 gold coins a day. That would be 40,000 gold coins in ten days!
If that was the case, Chen Mo wouldn't be short of money in the game.
However, this was only a theoretical calculation. If money was really that easy to earn, Chen Mo would be laughing even in his dreams.
First of all, the materials needed to make the Attribute Enhancement Potions were very high-grade and rare. This was especially true for the core materials. Even if one had the money, they could not be purchased in large quantities. Chen Mo had already asked Lian Hongyu to buy almost all the materials that could be purchased. However, even so, these materials could only allow Chen Mo to make 300 bottles of potions at most. If he sold them all at once, the shop would not have any more potions for sale in a few days.
Secondly, the rarer something was, the more expensive it was. The reason why things were expensive was because they were very few in number. They could not be bought just because one wanted to.
Each person could only use one bottle of these Attribute Enhancement Potions. If Chen Mo sold them in large quantities and let the players who could afford them successfully buy them, it would give people the feeling that the potions were good but easy to buy.
Once people had this feeling, the popularity of the Attribute Enhancement Potions would be greatly reduced. The phenomenon of people rushing to buy them and then reselling them for money would not occur. Naturally, it would be difficult for it to become a topic of discussion among the players and play the role of advertising.
Therefore, selling only a few bottles of each potion a day was the best way to go about Chen Mo's plan.
Chen Mo's main purpose of selling the Attribute Enhancement Potions was to promote Catelyn's reputation and increase Catelyn's prosperity.
Moreover, Chen Mo did not think that the Attribute Enhancement Potions would allow him to continue to make huge profits like this. He was afraid that it would not be long before someone else in the game would sell the same potions. When that time came, the price of the Attribute Enhancement Potions would definitely decrease greatly.
However, his Grandmaster Alchemy skill was at least one to two months ahead of the other players in the game. Chen Mo could use these potions to make money for one to two months. It was enough to advertise for two months.
On the first day, the Attribute Enhancement Potions were sold almost as soon as they were put on display. As for the Monster Potions, not many people were interested in them.
It was not that the Monster Potions were not effective, but that the price was too high.
The one-time use potions were more expensive than the best Green equipment. Not many people were willing to spend money to buy them.
In fact, Chen Mo put these Monster Potions on display and marked them at such a high price because he had no intention of selling them.
He put them on display just to make the shop look less empty. At the same time, he used the rarity of the potions to further promote the shop's reputation.
As for the high price, it was to wait for the spendthrifts who needed the potions to buy them.
In the next few days, Chen Mo made a hundred bottles of Attribute Enhancement Potions every day. After making the potions, he killed monsters and leveled up near Catelyn's territory.
Under the promotion of the Attribute Enhancement Potions, the number of players in Catelyn's territory soared. The territory's population, economy, and finances immediately began to improve significantly.
According to Enoch's analysis, after the number of players increased, Catelyn's territory would also be guaranteed. The blacksmiths, sewers, and other skilled personnel among the NPCs would also gradually move into Catelyn's territory, increasing the prosperity of the territory's technology.
On the fourth day of the Premium Shop's opening, Chen Mo had used up all the materials. Then, Lian Hongyu sent a new batch of materials to Chen Mo.
The price of this batch of materials had increased by 50% compared to before. The cost of making a bottle of Attribute Enhancement Potion had reached 15 gold coins.
Chen Mo was not surprised by this. He had almost used up all the materials. It would be strange if the price did not increase.
Others did not know where the Attribute Enhancement Potions in the Premium Shop came from, but Lian Hongyu, who had helped Chen Mo purchase so many things and materials, certainly knew.
However, Chen Mo did not plan to hide it from Lian Hongyu. Otherwise, he would not have asked her for help.
Even if this matter was exposed, it would not affect him. As long as no one knew that he was Catelyn's Lord, it would be fine.
In fact, as Catelyn's Lord, Chen Mo could also purchase the materials for making potions from players through Catelyn's NPCs. However, doing so would most likely expose the fact that Catelyn had a player Lord. So, Chen Mo did not do so.
Lian Hongyu, of course, would not spread the news that only she knew. Doing so would only harm her and not benefit her.
She was not the only merchant. Chen Mo could easily buy from another merchant. If she lost Chen Mo as a customer, she would lose a large amount of stable and risk-free income.
Although the price of materials had increased, Lian Hongyu did not send a lot of materials. Chen Mo could only make about 70 bottles of potions.
Chen Mo did not care too much. 70 bottles could barely maintain the shop's business.
In the past, he had been running around everywhere. Recently, Chen Mo had taken care of almost everything with great difficulty.
Now that Catelyn had entered the development stage, he did not need to do anything in Catelyn to earn a few hundred gold coins a day. Chen Mo planned to stay in Catelyn for a while and train hard to catch up with the first-rate players in the game.
However, after staying in Catelyn for only five days, Chen Mo had only reached Level 46 when someone sent him a message.
Looking at the message, Chen Mo thought for a moment and stopped fighting monsters. After returning to Catelyn to make some arrangements, he consumed energy and directly teleported to Red Sand City.
"Hahaha, Silent Expert, you came so quickly. I thought you were not in Red Sand City, so I sent you an email."
Dressed like a nouveau riche, Not Lacking in Money, appeared and met with Chen Mo in the city.
Seeing that Chen Mo was not short of money, he laughed out loud.
Some of the surrounding players looked at Not Lacking in Money with disdain. However, Chen Mo did not dare to underestimate this fatty in front of him. Not Lacking in Money was definitely not a simple person.
"I just happened to be nearby.
Let's skip the pleasantries. Boss Qian, how accurate are you about the mount? "Chen Mo asked. He didn't lack money.
The reason why he came immediately was because Not Lacking in Money sent him an email related to mounts!
