Chapter 585
The majestic city wall continues in Baiyang City, the buildings are taller than those in Huahui City, and there are many more people and vehicles coming and going than in Huahui City.
Seeing Baiyang City for the first time that was one level higher than the Huahui City he lived in in all aspects, Li Hua couldn't help but sigh: "The city level is one level higher, and it gives people a different feeling!"
"Don't say that, boy. Yao Lao sighed, "I think at the beginning, Huahui City was also a fifth-tier city, and there was not much difference from this Baiyang City. It's just that later, because the immortal cultivators trained in primary and junior high schools were not very competitive in the Shennan area, the Shennan government decided to downgrade Huahui City by one level and rebuild a fifth-tier city after discussion. ”
Although Li Hua is not very old, he can also understand the sorrow of Yao Lao. An ancient city like Huahui City is not upgraded, but downgraded, who can accept such a unconventional thing?
The saddest thing is that the Shennan government did not choose to help Huahui City regain its glory, but chose to redevelop a new city as a fifth-tier city.
"Yao Lao, now the three major fifth-tier cities in our Shennan area are Baiyang City, Jing'an City and Xinhong City, which city developed later?"
"Baiyang City and Jing'an City are both relatively old, and since ancient times, they have been listed as the three major fifth-tier cities in Shennan along with Huahui City. Sun Hung City, on the other hand, has only been developed in the last few thousand years. Yao Lao said a little heavily.
Li Hua eased the atmosphere and said with a deliberately hippie smile: "It has only been developed in the last few thousand years? ”
Yao Lao laughed and said: "What kind of bullshit history is this! When I was young, I also personally experienced the battle between the two major regions of Shennan and Shenbei! I will tell you about it when I have time." It was the most tragic battle in our Shennan region in the past 100,000 years. The fierce battle lasted for three months, and the blood was surging to the sky, and many places in the southern and northern Shenbei areas became deserted corpses everywhere. In those three months, more than 80 percent of the immortal cultivators in our two major regions were wiped out, which was really miserable! The old man was able to survive because he was too lucky, and there was no way. ”
"I thought the relationship between Shennan and Shenbei was quite good! I didn't expect there to be such a fierce battle before!" Li Hua said in surprise.
"The reason for this is complicated, and I can't tell you clearly for a while, so I'll tell you slowly when the old man has time!" Yao Lao also seemed to be a little reluctant to mention the tragic past of the year.
Li Hua felt that time was pressing now, so he had better sell the Sabertooth Tiger's Ice and Fire Double Pill first and get 100,000 spirit stones.
"Yao Lao, where is the land auction, let's go there and wait first!"
"As far as I can remember, the auction doesn't start until 3 p.m., and now we have an hour left for you to walk around. Later, Yao Lao added, "Actually, there is nothing to visit here, and for you, it only makes sense to go to the store." ”
"Shop?" Li Hua frowned, because every time he followed Yao Lao to the store, he would spend a lot of spirit stones, and now that the Sabertooth Tiger Ice and Fire Double Pill had not been sold, Li Hua didn't have much money left at all. If he is going to follow Yao Lao to the store now, it is estimated that he should return to the days of pennilessness.
Yao Lao smiled: "There are everyone in the auction, and there will definitely be people who see what good things you have bought or sold, and they will plot against you Read s();." When the auction is over, some bad guys will follow you and kill people for the treasure. If you don't buy something to defend yourself, I'm afraid you'll lose your wife and lose your soldiers!"
Li Hua thought about it, it was nothing to spend some money, as long as it could be safe after the auction was over.
So, Li Hua inquired all the way, and finally found a store with a good reputation, and found that the goods in it were more varied than those in Huahui City, and the prices were relatively cheaper.
Under the guidance of Yao Lao, Li Hua bought some self-defense magic weapons, some of which were disposable, so the price was not very expensive, and it cost Li Hua more than 800 spirit stones in total.
These spirit stones may be an astronomical amount for Li Hua's peers. But for Li Hua, if the Sabertooth Tiger Ice and Fire Double Pill is sold in the auction in the future, it will cost 5,000 spirit stones just to pay the membership fee, and these 800 spirit stones are not a drop in the bucket!
Therefore, Li Hua did not refuse all these things recommended by Yao Lao, and did not care too much about money.
After that, Li Hua saw that the time was almost up, so he looked for the auction according to the location that Yao Lao said.
The auction is not on the ground, but in a very attractive luxury high-rise building. When Li Hua arrived, many people were walking into the high-rise buildings one after another.
These people all have a characteristic, that is, they all wear masks, probably for fear of revealing their identities, which will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble after the auction.
Fortunately, Li Hua listened to Yao Lao's advice and had already bought a mask before coming.
Since Li Hua was still a child, he was naturally not very interested in those bells and whistles masks, so he chose a clown mask, which was also more suitable for his age, and would not be mistaken by others for a dwarf who would never grow tall.
Li Hua wore a mask and walked into the high-rise building, and many people on the road cast strange glances, not knowing what this child was doing. Because although there is no age limit for the auction, it will be very dangerous inside after all, and it is easy to get into trouble, and the average child will be restricted by his parents, and every time he goes to the auction, the parents will lock their children in the house to prevent them from sneaking into the auction.
Li Hua didn't care about these criticisms, as long as no one took the initiative to attack him, Li Hua wouldn't care much about anything. Because in this unfamiliar place, it's better to keep a low profile.
When Li Hua walked into the auction hall, he didn't notice that behind a huge sculpture outside the venue, there was a pair of eyes staring at him closely.
After Li Hua's figure completely disappeared into the crowd, the person who secretly followed Li Hua smiled lightly and disappeared as well.
As the time approached three o'clock, more and more people entered the auction hall, and the whole building slowly became noisy.
There were a lot of seats in the auction hall, and the position on the left was reserved for people who specialize in selling things, so Li Hua walked over without hesitation.
There is a large exhibition stand in front of the densely packed seats, and only people who sell things can go up and give presentations.
There are a lot of security guards in the venue, all of whom are immortal cultivators who have cultivated above junior high school students, and their strength is extraordinary, and they have come here to maintain order in the venue. If it weren't for the super strong immortal cultivators who came to make trouble, these security guards could have almost stopped everyone.
"Dear friends, thank you all for coming to this auction, on behalf of the organizers of this auction, I would like to express my sincere thanks and sincere greetings!"
With the beautiful appearance of the host with a microphone in hand, the noisy conversation in the venue disappeared and was replaced by bursts of applause reads();.
It was in the midst of this warm applause that the auction began.
The friend finally couldn't hold it anymore and held up the sign in his hand. ”
In the limelight, Li Hua raised the sign in his hand.
"This friend's asking price is 10,000 spirit stones, which happens to be the starting price. Are there any friends who continue to bid?" The host's eyes swept over the stage and found that no one had the intention of continuing to bid. In fact, the host already knew in his heart that no one would ask for a price, and this time Li Hua just helped him out of the siege, otherwise, he would have to think about how to let this stubborn seller on the stage go reasonably.
Everyone in the stage knows that the person who held up the sign is the child of unknown origin who just auctioned the Saber-toothed Tiger Ice and Fire Double Dan and caused the first* in the venue. They were all secretly laughing at the fact that the child had nowhere to spend the money just now, so they didn't continue to bargain, and they all watched the excitement.
In the end, Li Hua went to the backstage to hand over to the seller, and probably flipped through the "Three Chapters of the Analects", and found that the ancient characters in it were really not very familiar, and the content was very short, and the three chapters added up to just a thin book. However, the sections inside are very neat and clear at a glance, and it seems that each paragraph has its own unique meaning.
In order to continue watching the introduction on the stage, Li Hua was afraid of missing something valuable and cheap, so he didn't read much, put this secret book of mental methods that cost Li Hua 10,000 spirit stones into his pocket, and walked out again.
After that, the auction items were mainly ritual objects, although the effects of these ritual artifacts were also varied and attractive. But after all, the grade is too low, and in Li Hua's hands, some small materials are of great use. There is a giant pencil with the thickness of a thigh that Li Hua likes, but it is only at the level of a five-grade magic weapon, and the auction price is also a bit high, and it was raised to 50,000 spirit stones, which really made Li Hua not interested in participating.
Maybe these people are more interested in this kind of strange magic weapon! So no matter how much it costs, they want to go over and intervene.
A few low-grade artifacts were auctioned, and most of them were successful, and then a few high-grade ones came. There is a delicate ballpoint pen that Li Hua likes very much, but the starting price of the auction makes Li Hua a little unacceptable. An eight-grade magic weapon actually asked for 600,000 spirit stones, which is really a huge amount of money that Li Hua can't get out of smashing pots and selling iron!
Therefore, even if Li Hua is interested in it, he can only think about it in his dreams.
Finally, after another half an hour, it was finally ushered in something that made Li Hua feel a strong interest.
"This is a six-grade magic instrument, a colored pencil automatic pen. Unlike the usual automatic pen, this colored pencil automatic pen will emit a colorful light when playing arithmetic spells. Everyone knows that although these colored lights will not increase the mana strength of the spell out of thin air, the dazzling colors will increase the strength of the momentum. Therefore, in a monochrome spell with the same mana, these colored spells will additionally increase the momentum of the attack and generate coercion, thus taking advantage of the opponent. ”
Li Hua nodded slightly, this is similar to the effect of the colored pencil automatic pen and the colorful pencil he used to use, it seems to be in the same vein. So Li Hua developed feelings for it, hoping that it could be auctioned, as long as the thing could be obtained, the price would not be a big problem for Li Hua.
"The starting price of this magic weapon is 60,000 spirit stones. ”
As soon as these words came out, there were discussions on the table one after another.
"What kind of thing? An ordinary high-grade sixth-grade magic weapon is only 50,000 spirit stones, and such an ordinary sixth-grade magic weapon dares to ask for such a high price? ”
"What are the advantages other than some colored lights? This kid values his own things too much, doesn't he?"
For a while, although no one in the station raised the sign in their hands, the discussion was uninterrupted.
These people are like that, the more they don't get involved in their affairs, the more they like to interject.
At this time, Li Hua also had a headache, why did all the things he fancy are things that others don't rarely want?
It doesn't make sense to care about what others think, no matter what others think, getting what you want is the most important thing. always cares about other people's opinions, and in the end it will definitely achieve nothing, and there is nothing to hate.
Therefore, Li Hua once again bravely raised the sign in his hand and aimed it at the host, so that he could find himself accurately.
"Okay! It's also a friend who won the bid just now! This time, his bid is 60,000 spirit stones!"
The host deliberately put his voice very loud, hoping that the station would be quieter.
Sure enough, the eyes of the Taiwanese people were once again locked on Li Hua's body. In their understanding, Li Hua spent 10,000 spirit stones just now to buy a useless and tattered heart method cheatbook, because being rich is capricious, and he just earned 250,000 spirit stones, and it is not a big deal to throw out 10,000 spirit stones casually, as long as he is happy.
But now Li Hua actually bid 60,000 spirit stones to buy something that is only gorgeous in appearance and not strong in practicality, it is simply a brain-dead and a loser!
In fact, the starting price of this colored pencil automatic pen is really not high, and 60,000 spirit stones are really a conscience price. It's just that the seller's eloquence is not very good, and he didn't explain the effect of this magic weapon clearly, which caused the people in Taiwan to have a misunderstanding, thinking that this person was fishing in troubled waters, waiting for the fool to take the bait.
If this person had introduced the colored pencil automatic pen clearly, or if this pen had appeared in a higher-level auction house, its final price would not have been less than 100,000 spirit stones.
Therefore, although Li Hua is not very experienced, he is still very discerning, and the things he likes are rarely flashy.
"Sixty thousand spirit stones for the fourth time! Congratulations again to this lucky friend! Congratulations to this lucky friend!"
The laughter of the stage overshadowed the applause, which made the host feel embarrassed. It was the most embarrassing auction he had ever had in the hundreds of years since he entered the industry. In just a few hours, too many things happened that he didn't expect. Fortunately, with his good professionalism, all these sudden things have been solved.
Although the ridicule continued, Li Hua didn't care, anyway, they were all wearing masks, and no one knew anyone, as long as the things were in hand, wouldn't it?
So, Li Hua got what he wanted.
Yao Lao was quite satisfied with Li Hua's performance in this auction.
"Boy, you can do it without being influenced by others, keep your mind clear, not be manipulated by others, and ignore the ridicule of others, which can be regarded as defeating some ordinary people. And you know what you want, and you're going to do everything you can to get it. With these two points alone, you will eventually achieve your dreams. ”
After listening to Yao Lao's words, Li Hua could be regarded as having some comfort. After all, if he stays in a crowd that laughs at him for a long time, whether he is determined or not, he will also doubt himself.
Now with the support and affirmation of Yao Lao, Li Hua is more relieved and focuses on the auction that follows.
