Chapter 32: The Polaris Auction House
Polaris consignment hall
Xiaoyu sat in a high-backed chair with thick cushions, eating snacks and flipping through the consignment brochure. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info booklet is full of pictures and texts, and each one is introduced in detail. But Xiaoyu doesn't want details, but something unknown. Asking faster than looking, she spoke directly to the steward who was standing next to her. "Hello, I like to grow things when I'm fine, so I've been buying rare and precious seeds and plants. I wonder if you have anything like that here?"
"Rare seeds and plants? Yes, please wait. The steward bowed and nodded, stood up straight and beckoned the waiter next to him to whisper a few words, and the waiter took the order. After a while, three waiters came back with a tray each, and the steward put the tray on the table in front of Xiaoyu one by one and uncovered the flannel covering it. "Your Excellency, please see, these are precious seeds and plants for consignment, can you see if there are any that can be caught in the eye?" Most of the things that are consigned at the counter are unsold at auctions, but there are also things that are not confident in your own things and the consignment escrow fee is much cheaper than the auction commission, so you can encounter good things when you are lucky.
Xiaoyu leaned over to the table, dangling her palm above each seed and began to sift through it. After a series of searches, I picked out a few vigorous ones, but they were far from the feeling I encountered in Lola City. No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat, and it's better than nothing! I left a few seeds that I picked, and none of the plants looked at them. "In addition to these seeds, are there any mysterious little things that can't be identified?" Xiaoyu understood one thing after passing through the incident in Lola City. You can't just look at the surface, maybe something that doesn't look like a seed may also be a mysterious seed!
"Can't identify the small objects? This is not available in the consignment hall, but there may be an auction in the evening. The steward's words did not say death, but they left people with a thought.
Xiaoyu nodded, it seems that she must participate in the evening auction. Regardless of the harvest, you will have to go to the big auction house tomorrow. Touching her chin, she had an idea in her mind. "I wonder if you can announce the long-term acquisition of rare seed plants here? I can buy them for money, or I can barter, as long as the price is worth it. ”
The steward glanced at Xiaoyu without a trace, although this child is young, he speaks and acts very steadily!" "This is okay, but most people prefer to barter, but I don't know what you can get in exchange? The implication is that you have to get something of value, because there are many things that money can't buy, and sellers prefer to exchange them for what they desperately need.
Xiaoyu nodded, grabbed a few magic cores from the space necklace and put them on the table, took out another piece of wood, and took out a few grasses. "If you look at these things, all I can offer is similar material. Depending on the quality of the things you trade, I can offer a premium quality that you can't imagine, as long as it meets my expectations. ”
The steward knelt down on one knee and carefully examined the materials that Xiaoyu had taken out. Then I couldn't help but be horrified. Seventh-level magic core!? These inconspicuous magic cores are actually seventh-level, although they are the worst quality among the seventh-level, but they are also rare seventh-level magic cores! Looking at the wood again, he secretly took another breath, such a big piece of thousand-year-old black ironwood? It's actually dragon's blood grass, one of the rare materials needed to make magic scrolls. Oh, my God!
"Your Excellency...... These...... Do you sell these?" the steward is a little uneasy, is it too extravagant to change seeds and plants with such superb materials?!
"I'm not short of money! I'm short of rare seeds and plants. Xiaoyu said angry words with an innocent face, she had already picked her worst loot, why was this old man so excited. Rare and weird!
The steward almost didn't mention it in one breath, this kid is deliberate, right?!Seeing so many good things that can't be acquired, my heart hurts! The steward's heart is dripping blood, but he is still very dutiful to bring the magic rubbing, and Xiaoyu's precious materials are left with images as display pictures when they are released. Xiaoyu stretched her neck curiously, this thing is really interesting! It is similar to the polaroid of the earth, but it is a one-time thing, and if you expand one, you will consume one and become something like a photo. This is also evidence of the real existence of the item, without which rubbing cannot be made.
"This is a magic rubbing, a magic item used to record physical patterns, a new commodity researched by our auction house and the Magic Guild, and is currently being promoted in the imperial capital. If you are interested, the small one can give you two pieces to play. The steward saw Xiaoyu's excited appearance and immediately did what he liked. Although the magic rubbing is expensive, it is nothing compared to this gold master.
"No, I'm going to buy it. Give me 100 pieces first, and I'll buy them later if they work. I'll come back to the auction in the evening. Xiaoyu had an idea, he couldn't take out things and show them off before exchanging them with people in the future, and he would be robbed if he didn't make it. With this, you can expand a bunch first, and look at the pictures first when you encounter exchangeable. Putting out her crystal card, she has to find a place to live!
The steward touched the sweat on his forehead and immediately ordered someone to prepare something. After swiping the card, the steward tactfully reminded Xiaoyu that the money in the card would probably not be enough for the evening auction. Xiaoyu nodded and took the magic rubbing, the seeds were living things that could not be placed directly in the space necklace, and the steward took a delicate small straw basket for her to carry. It seems that the crystal card limit is still a little smaller, and it needs to be upgraded. After a while, I will first look for a place to live, and then look for a card store.
"If you have any items that need to be consigned or auctioned in the future, please be sure to choose our North Star. The steward took the time to recommend his own shop, "Whether it is high-grade rare materials, or precious alchemy items, weapons and equipment potions, we can help you sell them at a good price." The steward promised and gave Xiaoyu a badge, saying that a box was specially prepared for her, after all, it was too dazzling for such a young child to sit in the auction hall.
Well, weapons and equipment? This can be available, but we have to sort it out first. Xiaoyu thought about it and nodded lightly. Seeing her so calm, the steward felt more and more that this child was not simple. Respectfully sent Xiaoyu out, and politely said that he would send someone to pick her up in the evening, but Xiaoyu refused. She hasn't found a place to live yet! And they're all strangers, so she still doesn't want to pick up or drop off anything, so as not to get rich.
After leaving the Polaris Auction House, I walked a little further down the street, and as soon as I turned the corner, I saw Kingdom Square. The square is very large, and in the center is a fountain with a statue, and there are many people in the square, and the area around the fountain is the most crowded place. Directly across the square is the glorious palace gates, with brightly armoured guards armed with weapons.
I casually asked if there was a hotel nearby, and immediately got warm guidance. A hundred meters to the right of this luxurious mermaid princess hotel is the largest auction house in the royal city with countless branches in the country, Ocean Star.
Could it be that the auction houses in this country are all star-born? Xiaoyu complained silently, the residence is solved, now it is time to go to the card shop, and after saving the money, come back to rest and recharge and prepare for the evening auction. Xiaoyu originally planned to directly upgrade the crystal card to become an amethyst card (*Note) to cope with large transactions, but then she thought that it was a bit too arrogant to use the amethyst card in school, so she decided to open another amethyst card, and that crystal card would be used as a regular piece. Of course, you have to charge up your money in case you need it!
