Legendary Person: I brought my skills back to reality!

Chapter 85 The Real World Feeds Back into the Game World

Xu Hao pushed open the glass door of the jewelry store, and the crisp sound of the doorbell attracted a saleswoman dressed in a black business suit. She smiled and walked gracefully to Xu Hao.

"Hello sir, how can I help you?" the saleswoman asked softly, her tone gentle and professional.

Xu Hao cleared his throat and took out the gleaming gold bar from his pocket. He carefully placed the gold bar on the counter and gently pushed it toward the saleswoman.

The saleswoman's eyes were immediately drawn to the gold bars. She put on white gloves and examined them carefully. "Sir, are you here to sell gold? We also offer that service," she said, looking up at Xu Hao.

Xu Hao slowly shook his head, a slight smile appearing at the corners of his mouth. He cleared his throat and said, "No, I'm not here to sell gold. I'm here to buy gold."

Upon hearing this, the saleswoman frowned slightly, clearly puzzled by Xu Hao's words. Her gaze darted back and forth between Xu Hao and the gold bars, trying to understand his intentions.

Xu Hao realized the saleswoman hadn't understood him, so he extended his right index finger and gently tapped the gold bar on the counter. "I'd like to ask," he said, "could you make me a gold bar exactly the same as this one, based on its material and design?"

“I need it to be exactly the same in weight, purity, and size,” Xu Hao added, “even the surface texture has to be identical. Can you do that here?”

The saleswoman's expression gradually changed from confusion to surprise. Customizing jewelry was not uncommon, but customizing gold bars was a first for her.

But how should I put it? When you're in business, the customer is king. Besides, Xu Hao's request wasn't unreasonable.

The saleswoman looked at Xu Hao and said politely, "Sir, I need to take this gold bar to the processing workshop in the back so that the craftsman can take a look at it, is that alright?"

Xu Hao nodded in agreement. The saleswoman carefully picked up the gold bar with white gloves and turned to walk towards the back of the shop. She gently knocked on the door of the studio, and a voice from inside said, "Come in."

The saleswoman pushed open the door and saw a middle-aged man wearing reading glasses busy at his workbench. She handed the gold bar to the craftsman and briefly explained the customer's requirements.

The craftsman took the gold bar and carefully examined it with a magnifying glass. He measured its dimensions with professional tools and weighed it with an electronic scale. Then, he used a ruler to measure the spacing of the surface texture.

About ten minutes later, the technician nodded and said to the saleswoman, "No problem, we can do it."

The saleswoman breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and thanked the man, then quickly returned to the front desk. Seeing Xu Hao patiently waiting, she went up to him with a professional smile.

“Sir,” she said, “our master craftsman has examined it carefully. He said we can make an exact replica of your gold bar. We can guarantee that the weight, purity, size, and surface texture will be exactly the same.”

Upon hearing the saleswoman's reply, Xu Hao's eyes lit up instantly. A smile unconsciously crept onto his lips.

He had initially worried that the gold bar he brought from the game world might differ from real-world gold, perhaps possessing special properties or being impossible to replicate. But now, that worry has vanished.

His mind raced, devising his next plan. If he could mass-produce these gold bars or bricks in the real world and bring them back to the game world, his wealth in the game would grow exponentially. This meant he could buy more equipment, items, and even rare resources in the game.

The financial strain caused by second and third jobs will be easily resolved.

Xu Hao is currently rolling in money in the real world, and the bureau is about to launch a large-scale pharmaceutical workshop. Brother Shi confidently assured him that the amount deposited into Xu Hao's account each month would not be less than 1000 million yuan.

Xu Hao cleared his throat and asked in as calm a tone as possible, "Excuse me, how long does it take to make a gold bar like this? And what is the price?"

The saleswoman smiled and took out a small calculator, placing it on the counter. She quickly pressed the keys...

"The current price of gold is 495 yuan per gram. Your gold bar weighs exactly 350 grams."

"173,200 is the cost of pure gold. We also need to add processing fees. Yours is a custom-made piece, so we need to make a new mold, which may be more expensive. If you make the same gold bar next time, since the mold is readily available, we will give you a discount on the processing fee."

In the end, making one of these gold bars cost 175,000.

Xu Hao nodded in agreement.

The saleswoman continued, "Regarding the production time, we need to make a mold first, followed by processes such as melting gold, casting, cooling, and polishing. Considering that we need to completely replicate the surface texture of the original gold bar, additional fine processing may be required. All in all, it will take about three days."

She paused for a moment, then added, "If you place your order today, we can guarantee it will be ready for you at this time in three days."

Xu Hao thought about it and decided it was a good idea. He swiped his card to pay in full! No deposit needed, we're not short of a few bucks!

He took the sales slip and bank card from the saleswoman. As he signed, she continued, "Sir, you're such a generous person! Can we add each other on WeChat?" Her tone was suggestive; he didn't even blink at tens of thousands of yuan, so they could become friends a few times.

After signing his name, Xu Hao looked up. He saw the saleswoman twirling a strand of his hair with her fingers, her eyes filled with a hint of seduction.

He smiled politely but distantly and said, "Thank you, I'll remember to come back in three days to pick up the goods." With Lin Ya at home, he had little interest in coarse grains anymore.

After saying that, he turned and left, leaving the saleswoman standing there with a disappointed expression on her face.

Xu Hao walked out of the jewelry store and strolled down the street, his gaze sweeping over the pedestrians and shops around him, but his thoughts drifted to the distant continent of Fama.

If the real world accepts the gold bars of the Fama Continent, then could the reverse also be true? Xu Hao recalled the face of the innkeeper on the second floor of Tucheng.

Probably, maybe, probably?

Just as he was lost in thought, his phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket. Xu Hao snapped out of his reverie, took out his phone, and saw that it was Su Qing calling.

He pressed the answer button, and Su Qing's clear voice came through: "Hello, Xu Hao, where are you? Are you free? I want to see you."

Xu Hao glanced at his watch and replied, "I just finished some errands, but I'm free now. Where are you? Where should we meet?"

Su Qing said, "I'm at Hongyun Tea House in the city center. Is it convenient for you to come over?"

"No problem, I'll be there in about 20 minutes," Xu Hao replied.
