Chapter 779: Auction Master

Ji Ran followed Xiao Zhan into an independent private room, the private room was not completely enclosed, but semi-enclosed, the independent private room made of stone was completely enclosed on both sides, but the front was open.

However, due to the height difference and the design of the viewing platform, those sitting below do not have to worry about being seen by the people in the back row.

Ji Ran and Xiao Zhan sat in the private room, the space was not small, and there was also an ice-attribute magic crystal in the private room, which was constantly exuding a cool atmosphere.

Ji Ran and Xiao Zhan sat calmly on the soft and comfortable sofa, while opposite was a crowded and noisy civilian audience.

In the last eight areas, all of them are open to civilians, most of whom are civilians from Kent, who can't afford to buy valuables, but still have a thirst for valuables and a desire to hunt for them.

And every auction is also happy to open to them in order to increase popularity.

The ticket price for spectators in the civilian area is very cheap, generally one gold coin can be bought, even if the ticket price is a little better, it is only between a dozen gold coins and dozens of gold coins.

Occasionally, when a prince or nobleman comes, the ticket price may rise appropriately, but it usually does not exceed a hundred gold coins.

The cheap fare, of course, also means that the services available are quite limited, almost none, and all the civilian areas are self-service except for the zoning.

There are no seats in the civilian auditorium, and there are no restrictions, as long as you can stay, you can stand, so the audience area, which can only accommodate 70,000 people, is sometimes filled with 100,000 people, or even more.

Stampedes do occur occasionally, but this does not dampen the enthusiasm of civilians to participate in the auction.

There used to be a very popular joke in Kent, one person said that the auction house was too crowded, too crowded, and his pregnant wife was squeezed out of miscarriage, but another person said, what is this, his wife went to the auction house to watch the auction, and they were all squeezed pregnant.

This shows that the crowding of the auditorium is jaw-dropping.

Of course, this funny joke is not groundless, there are always people who like to fish in troubled waters in a crowded environment, every now and then, some beautiful little girls are going to suffer, groping pig hands are good, in case you meet someone with bad intentions, you may really lose your virginity because of this.

Ji Ran looked at the crowded audience and was glad that he was sitting here, if he was in that environment, he might really be squeezed into pregnancy.

After Ji Ran and Xiao Zhan sat down, there were still people in the auction hall entering the venue one after another.

In the center of the auction hall, an unprecedentedly large venue was built, which was illuminated and filled with items to be auctioned today.

There are huge star stones, rare best elixirs in the mainland, rare peerless divine weapons, and naturally coveted high-level fighting skills, in short, as long as you can imagine the treasure, you can find it here.

After about half an hour, the auction finally began.

According to the custom, the organizer of the auction hall will invite the local nobles to give a speech similar to the opening ceremony, the main meaning is to welcome the rich people from all over the world, and at the same time thank the auctioneer for holding the auction in the local area, and what kind of rights and obligations he will enter as a host.

In short, you are welcome to come here to do business, and I will protect your rights and personal safety.

Of course, the city lord's statement was not given in vain, after the auction was over, according to the custom, five to ten percent of the profit would be taken out as the city lord's commission and go into the city lord's own pocket.

Therefore, whenever there is an auction to be held, the city lords from all over the country are still rushing to buy and sell.

After the lord of Kent City made a simple opening speech, the auction officially began.

Because of the presence of the city lord, no one dares to make a mistake here, even the thieves and thieves who are rampant on weekdays usually disappear at this time, hiding in a low-key manner, and no one dares to cut off the city lord's wealth.

The rich and wealthy people who come here do not have to worry about being targeted by others when they show their wealth here, and in order to ensure their safety, the city lord usually arranges the best security work for them to ensure their absolute safety.

Even after the auction is over, guards will be sent to escort them out of the country safely to prevent accidents in the country.

It is this good reputation that allowed the auction to go smoothly, and over time, it has developed to the point where it is today.

"The first auction item is the magic crystal core of the seventh-order demonic beast three-headed hellhound hunted by the iron-blooded mercenary group in the Satsuma territory, and the starting price is three million gold coins, start! ~”

The person in charge of the auction is not a beauty in the traditional sense, but a senior treasure connoisseur in the auction industry, which is much more professional than an ordinary treasure connoisseur, because of his senior treasure appraisal experience, therefore, many treasures he handled, there has never been a fake, over time, he has become a famous auction master in the Gamma Empire, as long as he appears, it is the guarantee of authentic licensed goods, and the price will not be too low.

Beauty can certainly attract attention, but it is limited to ordinary small auction houses, as long as there is a good skin, a good voice, even if it is a fake, some people will buy it, but, for the best goods worth more than one million gold coins, maybe the beautiful auctioneer is not necessarily easy to use, the local tyrant may spend thousands of gold coins to win the favor of the beauty, but who would be stupid enough to gamble on a fake with millions of gold coins?

Therefore, in the high-end auction venue, it is inevitable that there will be all senior auctioneers, and beauties can only be reduced to vassals.

"Three and a half million! ~”

"Three million eight million! ~”

"Four million! ~”

"Four million and one million! ~”

The auctioneer's voice fell, and the auction area immediately resounded with shouts one after another.

The magic core of the seventh-order demonic beast, of course, is not an ordinary item, even if it is an ordinary quality magic core, it is between three million and five million, if you are lucky enough to open a middle-to-upper-grade magic core, the value can easily be doubled, and it can even break ten million.

There was once a gold owner who spent five million to buy a sixth-order magic core, but after the seal was lifted, it turned out to be a top-grade sixth-order magic core, and its value directly doubled to one thousand Wu Bai million gold coins, which more than tripled, and it became a beautiful talk for a while.

And it is precisely because of the birth of these lucky people, as well as the vigorous publicity of the auction house, that many gold owners have the mentality of gambling and want to have a thousand pounds, but most of them have a very miserable ending, with a light loss of millions of gold coins, and the obsessive ghosts who point to the back usually lose all their money.
