Chapter 186: Auction Extravaganza
Although Rhoda has planned to open an auction house, he doesn't know anything about business or the setting of the auction house in the game, and he doesn't even know how much world prestige is needed to establish an auction house.
None of this can be done in a day or two, and Rhoda is not in a hurry, he originally planned to help sell the auctioned equipment and props to the Earth Auction House, but he has no intention of withdrawing. To set up an auction house, if nothing else, money is definitely indispensable.
When there were still two days before the auction began, Luo Da took the time to go to the Dadi Auction House with the uncle who sold the bag.
The Earth Auction House is built in Inland Sea City, which has a special location, close to the edge of a bay that is deeper into the Era Continent, and players can walk to a beautiful bay without walking long.
Of course, the scenery of the bay is not easy to enjoy, the monsters in that bay are unexpectedly perverted, the monster level is above 100, and if you want to enjoy the sea view, you have to risk your life.
If it weren't for this, Inland Sea Castle with its sea view would definitely attract a large number of players.
The biggest reason why the Earth Auction House will be built in the Inland Sea City, naturally not to covet the beautiful scenery of the Inland Sea City, will be selected in the Inland Sea City, the biggest reason is the special geographical location of the Inland Sea City, most of the cities in the Huaxia District, to the Inland Sea City, it only takes two to three hours, obviously, the Earth Auction House is to build the Inland Sea City into a commercial hub in the Chinese District.
After signing a contract with the Earth Auction House in Inland Sea City and handing over a few pieces of equipment to the person in charge of the Earth Auction House, Luo Da once again asked the uncle who sold the bag about the specific conditions for establishing the auction house.
"Brother Dahai, are you planning to set up an auction house?"
One inquiry can be said to be curious, and Luo Da asked again, and the uncle who sold the bag was sensitively aware of what Luo Da was going to do.
"Yes, I may have enough of the world prestige needed to build an auction house." Roda nodded and admitted, there was nothing to hide.
In five months, Rhoda already has 1,070 points of world prestige. This more than 1,000 points of world prestige was obtained by Rhoda after killing two world bosses, an ancient boss, and a series of adventures and difficult tasks.
"1070 points? Terrible! After the uncle who sold the bag knew about Luoda's world prestige, he praised it with great admiration, he knew very well that the Earth Jewelers Company had spent a lot of manpower and material resources to get enough world prestige to establish the Earth Auction House, and Luo Da was alone and made so many things quietly!
"I'll help you investigate, but as far as I know, in addition to prestige, you need something else to establish an auction house, and it's not easy to establish." The uncle who sold the bag agreed.
Luo Da nodded, but the uncle who sold the bag was always a businessman, and he also had an interest relationship with the Earth Auction House, and Luo Da didn't plan to just ask for news from him, in fact, in addition to the uncle who sold the bag, before coming to Inland Sea City, Luo Da was on the forum to buy the relevant news about the conditions for the establishment of the auction house from the recently well-known "Gray Feather Alliance".
The Grey Feather Alliance is an organization that specializes in selling news, in addition to selling known news, players can also ask them for specific news, of course, these messages are expensive, and Rhoda asks them about the establishment of an auction house, and they take it, and take a deposit of 2000 silver coins from Rhoda.
In addition to asking the Gray Feather Alliance for news, Luo Da also went to the city lord of Desert City to inquire about the news, but the city lord of Desert City, as well as the archon, all said that this was not within their management and had nothing to say, even Tenanna did not tell Luo Da, obviously, the auction house was in the hands of another NPC organization in the Era Continent, and this NPC organization, even the city lord could not interfere.
There are two days left before the auction, the publicity of the land auction house in the past two days is getting more and more intense, and there are more and more superb equipment props appearing on the publicity every day, I don't know how many players have a strong interest in this auction conference, it was only an admission ticket of 10 silver coins, and when there is still a day before the auction, it is hard to be fried to 100 silver coins, and 100 silver coins, it may not be able to buy, some players who bought tickets in the early days, and even can sell the admission tickets of 10 silver coins to more than 200 silver coins, which is quite crazy!
"Let's go." The auction was held at nine o'clock in the evening, and at six o'clock in the afternoon, Rhoda, Lebo and others took a carriage to Inland Sea City.
Two hours later, Rhoda, Leibo, Taotao, Ye Qianyu, and a few drunkards appeared in Inland Sea City.
The time is already eight o'clock in the evening, and the people in Neihai City come and go, and it is very lively, which is much more lively than the real New Year's Festival.
"It's nice to have an auction house." The auction hasn't started yet, but the Earth Auction House is open normally, Lehber looked at it for a while and couldn't help but say.
Although it is said to be an auction house, it is impossible to hold auctions every day, in addition to holding large-scale auctions, the Earth Auction House is usually a big shopping mall, and players can buy various equipment and props in the Land Auction House.
Of course, Luo Da had already talked to Lehbo about running an auction house, and Lehbo couldn't help but be ready to move when he saw the grand occasion of the Earth Auction House.
As far as you can see now, opening an auction house is simply sitting and waiting for money to come to the door!
"It's not that easy to make money." But Momo shook her head.
Luo Da glanced at Tao Tao, although this girl is usually very quiet, but Luo Da knows that Tao Tao's real identity may not be simple, judging from her means of dealing with the deputy job guild, she definitely has some experience in management that ordinary people do not have.
"Availability is the biggest problem. Whether it's selling things like a mall or holding an auction, the availability of goods is a big problem. If you sell ordinary equipment items, or if there are several particularly attractive equipment items in the auction, people don't need to come all the way to buy them. The game is not like reality, there are special or excellent equipment and props, and it is almost impossible to mass produce, that is to say, the supply cannot be guaranteed, and the income cannot be guaranteed. Tao Tao said sharply.
Several people nodded when they heard this, the reason why the auction of the Earth Auction House can attract so many people to come, in addition to being the first auction in Huaxia District, the biggest reason is that there are a large number of rare equipment and props for sale and auction, if not, at most it can only attract a group of players who watch the excitement, and now, almost all of the people who come are rich owners, it is foreseeable that this auction will be extremely enthusiastic!
"It stands to reason that the Earth Auction House can't guarantee the supply of goods, so how can he make money as an auction house?" Lebo couldn't help but ask.
"If there is only one auction house, the supply will definitely be fine, but with the increase in the number of auction houses in the future, even the land auction house will have to face this problem. This time, I heard that the Earth Auction House has attracted merchants from various cities, given them large dividends, and brought in a large number of rare equipment and props. Of course, behind the Earth Auction House is the Land Jewelers, and the real purpose of the Earth Jewelers is not to make money from the auction house, they just want to make a name for themselves, and then in the game, establish sales points and sell their jewelry, which is their main parent purpose. ”
Tao Tao analyzed carefully, and Luo Da knew that she was tactfully making herself clear that even if she established an auction house, she would not be able to make a lot of money.
Think about it carefully, if the auction of a piece of equipment, if the equipment is collected at a fixed price, and finally auctioned a relatively high price, then even if it is a profit, but if the guest entrusts the auction, they only charge commissions, then the money will not be much to go, after all, there will be more than one auction house in the future, and the commission cannot be high, and if it is high, people can go to another auction house.
Especially like the Earth Auction House, people make it clear that as long as your things are good enough, they will not charge commissions at all!
……
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Earth Auction House! Dadi Auction House is the first auction house in Huaxia District established by Dadi Jewelry Investment, here, in addition to buying a variety of rare equipment props, you can also see jewelry samples consistent with reality, feel satisfied, you can also place an order to buy, more convenient and faster than reality! ”
Soon, the time was nine o'clock in the evening, the auction officially began, and players with tickets walked through the auction mall on the first floor and entered the auction house.
The auction house seems to have a hierarchy, the auction house is only the most basic auction house, which can only accommodate 3,000 people, and there are no VIP boxes, everyone is seated in the auction hall according to their own tickets.
On the auction table, a middle-aged man simply made an advertisement for the Dadi Jewelry Company, and then with a wave of his hand, a piece of equipment appeared in front of everyone: "Now, the auction has officially begun!" This is our first piece of equipment to be auctioned, the level 35 dark gold equipment with Temper +7, the Necromantic Dagger! ”
That's right, this necromantic dagger is the necromantic dagger that Rhoda used before!
After changing weapons, Rhoda never used to sell them. Necromantic dagger tempering +7, how much it can be sold, Roda doesn't know, after all, in the game, it seems that he is only this tempering +7 weapon for the time being. But because the Necromantic Dagger is only a level 35 weapon, the value is naturally greatly discounted, and how much to sell becomes more complicated, and because Luo Da is not short of money for the time being, he naturally lost it in the warehouse.
Now, taking advantage of the first auction held by the Earth Auction House in the Huaxia District, there are countless rich players who have come, so Luo Da asked the Earth Auction House to help with the auction, thinking that this necromantic dagger, although the level is low, it can also be sold at a good price.
"Temper +7!"
"Weapon attack power is increased by 50%, and a perverted special effect is attached!"
"A low-level assassin artifact, below level 50, with this weapon, it's simply invincible!"
As soon as the necromantic dagger came out, there was a sudden uproar in the auction hall!
