Chapter 16: No Money, Find Fault (1st Update)
"Twenty percent?!" Liu Yao exclaimed: "Isn't this a money grabber? ”
Mr. Xi's face turned cold, and his attitude became cold: "Ruikong Auction House has first-class protection measures on the Firmament Continent, and the rooms of the auction house are all made of materials that can isolate the thoughts and divine senses of the strong.
With such protection, only 20% of the handling fee is charged, is it too much?! ”
Seeing that this appraiser was angry, I hurriedly said: "Liu'er, some third-rate auction houses will unscrupulously charge 30% of the transaction price as a handling fee, compared with these unscrupulous elements, the founder of Ruikong Auction House can be regarded as a conscientious businessman. ”
Mr. Xi snorted, his face was a little pale: "This girl is generally knowledgeable, is there only one elixir?" ”
I took out the porcelain bottle and poured out the remaining elixir: "There are four in total, I suggest that your bank auction one at the beginning, let the auctioneer test the medicine on the spot, and wait until the efficacy is proven, and the remaining three can't be sold at a high price?" ”
Mr. Xi was appraising the quality of the three elixirs, and when he heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and glanced at me strangely: "Girl's mind and calculation, if she is willing to come to our auction house to develop, she will definitely become a world-renowned top auctioneer!" ”
Poof, what is this? Recruiting talent on the spot?
I smiled and didn't answer, Mr. Xi is a smart person, so he didn't dwell on this topic, and after the identification, he said lightly: "The four elixirs are all high-quality elixirs, and for the time being, according to one hundred thousand gold coins, a total of four hundred thousand gold coins." In our auction house, items worth more than 200,000 gold coins can enjoy our private rooms for free. ”
As he spoke, he handed me a jade sign and continued, "Here is your box number plate, and when you two go out, you can let the waiter lead you to the room."
There is still an hour before the auction starts, and during this time, the two of you can go to the exchange market next door to see if there is anything good to see. ”
I took the number plate and glanced at it, it said 214, it should be on the second floor.
Thank you, Mr. Xi, Liu Yao and I went out of the room, and when we saw the beautiful waitress guarding the hall, I casually recruited one over and asked her to take us to the exchange market that Mr. Xi said.
The so-called exchange market is a place where cultivators set up stalls to sell their goods, and many cultivators will get some natural treasures by fighting magical beasts, collecting, or hunting treasures, and then sell these things through the exchange market to exchange for money.
The exchange market is in the backyard of the Ruikong Auction House, it is said to be the backyard, and it is the size of more than a football field, as far as the eye can see, the exchange market is full of independent stalls, some cultivators casually put a piece of cloth on the ground and put items, some are more comfortable, will bring their own tables and chairs, and will also bring their own brand, with the words "XXX shop" written on it, which looks no different from the night market of ordinary people.
In addition to these vendors, there are also many cultivators in the market who stop to watch or walk around at will, most of these people are wearing cloaks like me and Liu Yao, but the colors of the people are more diverse, and compared to those who are covered in black like us, we are indeed more like saboteurs.
"Hey, let's look for it, or maybe we can find a few things!"
Liu Yao touched my arm and whispered in my ear, I nodded, and suddenly asked him seriously, "But, how much money do you have?!" ”
I haven't forgotten that I'm penniless now, and if it weren't for that, I wouldn't have come to auction the elixir.
Although I couldn't see his expression through the wide black cloak, I could easily feel Liu Yao's body stiffen, and after a while, he replied without any momentum, "Okay...... It seems that there are a little more than two hundred ......."
The corners of my mouth twitched, and I really wanted to look up to the sky and sigh: Why has it been so long since I crossed over, and I am still a penniless bitter man?! Is there a more tragic time-traveler than me? Are there any poorer alchemists than me?!
"It doesn't matter, the Condensation Grass is only the lowest level of the lower grade spirit grass, and the same category as the Passage Grass, it shouldn't cost much, the ebony vine grade is slightly better, it's just some, it is estimated that a hundred gold coins are enough, only the magic crystal of the Red-eyed Demon Snake Beast is troublesome, but that is not in a hurry."
I comforted Liu Yao, and at the same time comforted myself, of course I wasn't in a hurry, after all, things wouldn't be so coincidental, I wouldn't need these three materials, and these three materials would appear in front of me immediately.
This thought was completely overturned as we paced to a humble stall, for I found five plants of Celestial Grass in this stall, which had no plaques and was spread haphazardly on the ground, even if it was open!
I spent fifty gold coins on all the coagulation grasses, and a moment later I found a small piece of ebony vine in another, more well-equipped stall.
"Boss, how much is this ebony vine?"
The owner of this small stall is a rugged-looking middle-aged uncle, with knotted muscles and a fight with Qiaoda, but his strength is much worse than Qiaoda, only the cultivation of the early stage of the spiritual cultivator.
At that time, this uncle was lying on his back on the chaise longue, with a tattered book on his face and closed his eyes to recuperate, when he heard that he opened his eyes and looked at us, and replied casually: "One price, eighty gold coins." ”
The price was a little lower than I expected, and I was overjoyed: "Deal, Liu'er, take the money." ”
A fair-skinned and beautiful hand stretched out from the black cloak, and Liu Yao gracefully took the money from the space ring.
The boss's eyes straightened when he touched Liu Yao's beautiful unspeakable hand, and he actually swallowed his saliva without making a living.
I laughed secretly in my heart, Liu Yao must have been cast in the wrong place, a beautiful person like him should really be voted a daughter, if she is really a woman, she must be a disaster-level person who has captivated the country and the city.
Of course, I didn't dare to say this, because after this thing noticed the middle-aged uncle's gaze, he exuded a strong murderous intent.
The middle-aged uncle retracted his gaze stupidly, Liu Yao snorted coldly, and handed over eighty gold coins: "Here you go!" ”
The middle-aged uncle was about to take the money, when the sound of a heavy object hitting the table suddenly sounded, and then, a cold male voice came from behind us: "One hundred gold coins, I want ebony vines!" ”
The three of us were stunned at the same time, and subconsciously looked towards the cold voice, only to see a tall figure also shrouded in a black cloak walking over unhurriedly, we couldn't see his face, but we could feel the cold murderous aura emanating from his body.
It wasn't murderous to a certain person, but the aura of the person himself, or rather, he was full of malice towards the whole world. (To be continued.) )
