Star Merchant

The Star Merchant (lit. 星际商人) was an NPC vendor who sold various exclusive items for both in-game coins and real-world currency. This NPC was exclusive to the Chinese version of the game and no longer exists in any version of the game.
They would spawn once the following conditions have been met:
* There is an empty House.
* All players in the game world total more than between them in their inventories.
Note that only coins in the main inventory or coin slots are counted; savings stored in a portable storage item like the Piggy Bank do not count toward the requirement. If the Star Merchant is killed, they will only respawn if the above conditions are met again. This means all players need to have over in their combined inventories.
