Purchasing agents are mainly products that are not easy to obtain in Taiwan. You can help them purchase through purchasing agents and charge some purchasing fees. Most of the purchasing agents will capture 30% to 50% of the profits, which is very profitable!

The most difficult thing in purchasing is the "source". How do you get these products that are not easy to obtain?

 15. Trading of rare virtual treasures

In the game, collecting rare props, equipment or a large amount of game coins can be used for virtual treasure transactions.

Taking Maple Valley as an example, I believe that eighth graders should be familiar with this game. This should be a classic example of virtual treasure trading. There are merchants who need to rely on virtual treasure trading to make a living, constantly buying at low prices. All kinds of rare props and equipment can be resold for higher prices, and the difference in game currency between earning money will continue to roll out, or directly resell the virtual treasures directly on the virtual treasure trading platform.
