Chapter 254, The Great Auction (1)

After completing all the forging plans, it was already a year later, and in addition to refining and upgrading their daily blades and greatly increasing their power, the four of Qingduan Chen Hu also forged new spirit weapon treasures.

Qingshi created a set of nine flying swords, named "Jiuxuan"; Chen Tianye forged a 'sword of his own' - Xuan Ming; Duan Wutian added the Sky Breaking Axe and the Earth Shield; And Hu Hailong has an extra set of armor with excellent defense and can also help people fly.

This armor is not made of Dark Metal, which is heavy and hard, making it too bulky to use as armor, increasing defense but decreasing agility, which is more than worth the loss.

Hu Hailong's armor is improved by Qingshi with transoceanic ice crystal silk armor, but with an added flying function. The magic that makes the armor have a flying function is not available in the Wanshan Sea.

Of course, Qingshi also cast four spirit cannons, ready to equip the Xuanhu and Xuanwei with two each, and hundreds of conical cannonballs were also produced. So, most of its work is done by puppets.

The bluestone cast Spirit Cannon is a little more powerful than the ordinary array cannon on Seagod Island, and it is almost not inferior to the energy cannon. However, its rate of fire and accuracy were still inferior to the large array cannon that had blown them half to death, because the array cannon was larger and was automatically controlled by a magic weapon with a diameter of twenty zhang. Although Qingshi understood the principle of the array disk, he did not have the ability to copy such a array disk, and even if he copied it, he would not be able to install such a behemoth on the battleship.

Despite this, the rate of fire of this Spirit Cannon is much higher than that of the Energy Cannon, and the range is closer. However, compared to the energy cannon, their recoil is too great, and Qingshi is worried that the battleship will not be able to withstand it.

He installed a base for each of the four guns to slow down the recoil, but the whole cannon was too large to be suitable as a gun. As a result, Qingshi could only install the most powerful one of them on the front end of the Xuanhu to replace the main cannon lost on Poseidon Island. The other three doors were temporarily included in a storage unit for future improvements.

Xiang An didn't get the magic weapon of the spirit soldier, because he had been trapped in the egg house and couldn't get out. After getting the complete "Water Source Gong" that day, Duan Chen and Hu chose to retreat in the farm, but Xiang An wanted to go back to the egg house to practice, but once he went back, he couldn't come out again, because Xiaopang had been in a deep sleep.

Xiang An's entry and exit from the egg house is not like Qingshi, which can be completed by using mental power on his own, he must use Xiaopang to take him in and out with mana. The reason why he was able to go in was because Chubby set up a spell to let him in before going to bed, so that he could go back to feed his pet, and how to get out after going back, Chubby didn't care.

Once the casting plan came to an end, it was put on the agenda to continue eastward. The four of them returned to Dongfu City and stayed at the Wanjin Hotel again, intending to rest for a few days and then set off on a later date. As soon as I returned to the city, I heard the news that two months later, there would be a huge auction of treasures in Linya City, the largest of the three major countries, jointly organized by the three largest treasure houses in the three countries, and it was said that the scale was unprecedented, at least judging from the promotional posters displayed in the hotel.

Hearing this news, Qingshi was naturally in no hurry to leave.

......

Two months later, Linya City.

Linya City is the easternmost large city in the entire Wanshan Sea, and it is also the second largest city in Zhengxu Kingdom after Dongfu City. It is located on the west coast of Haoming Island, 1,200 miles by sea from Dongfu City.

Linya City occupies one-tenth of the area of Obscure Ming Island, with a radius of 100 miles and a population of more than one million. In the eastern part of the Wanshan Sea, the density of islands is very large, but most of them are small islands, and Qingming Island is the largest and most populous central island.

The unprecedented auction venue is located in the largest treasure house in Zhengxu Country - Linya Chamber of Commerce. Qingduan Chen Hu and the four of them came to the lively East Street, and saw at a glance the luxurious and magnificent Linya Chamber of Commerce, with flags waving, flowers and crowds.

After approaching, the four of them found that this auction actually had to charge tickets, and two hundred high-grade spirit stones were alone. Most of the crowd gathered at the door was reluctant to buy tickets, and many people were nagging and complaining, or even cursing in low voices. In fact, if you have to pay for tickets, I'm afraid that the venue won't be able to accommodate so many people, because a large part of the people who come to the venue are watching the excitement.

Qingshi naturally didn't spare these few small dollars, spent money to buy tickets, and soon entered the venue. This venue is very large, square in shape, with a large square platform in the middle, and more than a dozen circles of seats are set up around the large square platform, a total of about 500 seats, the seats are wide and comfortable, equipped with low tables, and provide food and drink. Buyers attending the auction will be seated with a ticket and will have unlimited access for seven days.

In addition to these seats, there are about a hundred boxes on three floors around it, and there are about thirty on each floor. Naturally, it also takes money to enjoy the box, and the ordinary box needs 5,000 high-grade spirit stones for seven days, and 1,000 per day for a single day rental. The price of the VIP box will be doubled.

Qingshi naturally asked for a VIP box for the whole audience, plus tickets for four people, and spent 10,000 and 800 high-grade spirit stones before he saw anything, so angry that Hu Hailong scolded the organizer for being a 'profiteer'.

Qingduan Chen and the three of them are all rich and rival the country, so they naturally don't care. Hu Hailong has robbed for decades, and the top-grade spirit stones he earned are only a few million, although they are also considered a large amount of money, they can be dwarfed by these three big tyrants.

In a large and comfortable luxury box, four people waited for the auction to open while sipping fine wine. The auction is almost the same everywhere, nothing more than the organizers speaking, cheekily exaggerating their conference, complimenting the guests who come to the place, and then cutting to the topic, and the bidding game begins.

The first lot is very good, and it should be deliberately arranged by the organizers to create an atmosphere. This lot is a mid-grade long sword of the ground level, the two attributes of civil engineering are suitable, the reserve price is 100,000 high-grade spirit stones, and the final transaction price is 230,000 yuan. At this price, you can buy two such swords in the Tianlong Continent.

The second lot is a small airship, which is similar to the kind of airship that Qingshi bought in large quantities in the waters of the Seven Evil Seas, and has no other functions other than flying. The aura of the Wanshan Sea is thinner than that of the Seven Evil Seas, and there are fewer places suitable for airships to fly, so the practicality of this airship is not very strong.

However, scarcity is expensive, and the price of this thing in the Wanshan Sea is actually twice that of the Qisha Sea Region and more than three times that of the Tianlong Continent. This airship was finally sold for 320,000 high-grade spirit stones.

The third lot is a piece of sea agarwood from the bottom of the sea, similar to the dark gold agarwood incense burner of bluestone, which has the effect of refreshing the mind and assisting enlightenment, but the effect is worse. Such a thing is definitely a good treasure in the Tianlong Continent, this piece is worth 500,000 high-grade spirit stones, but the reserve price here is 100,000, and in the end 260,000 is sold.

Most of the next items are more ordinary, and Qingshi and the others have slowly seen some doorways. That is, the way of magic in the Wanshan Sea is poor, and the artificially refined weapon armor or other spiritual weapons are very rare and expensive. Overseas naturally occurring treasures are not only diverse, but also very inexpensive.

Such a situation is naturally very beneficial to them for bluestone. Duan Wutian and Chen Tianye began to participate in the bidding, bidding for some of the seafood treasures they needed, such as exotic flowers and herbs that could assist in cultivation, spirit beast essence blood, inner pills and rare spirit fruits, rare metal minerals from the sea, and so on. It's also a bit rewarding.

Qingshi hadn't taken a fancy to anything worth selling, so he simply asked the waiter to call the director of the auction and said that he would sell a batch of treasures to the organizers.

Not long after, a person came to the box, and the person who came was slightly fat, full of kindness, and had a golden goatee on his chin. It turned out to be the master of bluestone, hahaha...... Yo! There are also a few masters! Fate, fate! Fortunately, I will be glad to meet you! ”

"Oh!" Qingshi smiled, "It turned out to be Boss Lian!" Hurry up, please take a seat. The largest treasure village in the Mirage is not the boss's Qibao Fang! Even the boss is the owner of this auction, I should have thought of it. ”

At this time, Duan Chenhu and the others also recognized it, this person was known as the richest man in the Mirage people, the owner of Lianshan Kailian of Qibaofang.

"Where, where!" Lian Shan shook his head and said, "The host here is the Linya Chamber of Commerce, and I was just invited by President Wang to attend the meeting, so I can be regarded as one of the co-organizers. ”

After a few words of greeting, Qingshi took out a pile of items and placed them on the table. There are a total of forty-two weapons and armor, helmets, boots, etc., which are of the middle and lower grades of the Xuan level and even the prefecture level, most of which are transoceanic items, these spirit weapons are good things in the Wanshan Sea, but they are nothing in the eyes of Qingshi, except for selling for money, it seems to be of little use.

Among the items left across the ocean, there are many metal minerals, spiritual flowers and exotic plants and other seafood items, many of which are useful for bluestone, so they are all left.

Among the things left behind across the ocean, there are three best things, one is his weapon, the earth-level high-grade water and wind two-attribute long sword, although the sword is good, it is not applicable, and the bluestone is kept for the time being. The second is the ice crystal silk armor, and the bluestone was given to Hu Hailong. The third is the weird golden-red cloak, which is definitely a treasure that integrates offense and defense, but it is made by integrating the resentful souls of thousands of people into it, this is not the three major magic paths of the fair, but the witch evil magic, and the bluestone destroyed it.

Qingshi was troublesome and unwilling to auction one by one, so he simply packaged these things and sold them to Lian Shankai for 20 million high-grade spirit stones, and Lian Shankai changed hands for auction, I am afraid that he will make seventy percent of the gross profit.

The money and goods were both gone, and Lian Shankai asked someone to take the items sold to him to register and prepare for auction. He himself was not in a hurry to leave, but smiled and took out a bottle of fine wine for a few people to taste, and accompanied a few people to drink a few glasses.

Since there is good wine, Duan Wutian and Chen Tianye naturally do not refuse.

"It turns out that you have not left yet!" Lian Shankai said, "I thought you had left the Wanshan Sea and headed for the Shenmu Continent!" For more than a year, I have also been preparing to go to the Shenmu Continent, and I originally intended to set off directly east after this auction. But I don't know when you're leaving? ”

"If we hadn't come to the auction," Duan Wutian said, "we would have left two months ago." ”

"Really?" Lian Shankai said excitedly, "So, you are also preparing to set off after the auction is over?" That's great, why don't we go together! In this voyage, in addition to my Qibaofang, there were also Linya Chamber of Commerce, Heishui Guodatong Chamber of Commerce, and Yuhuangdao Yuhuang Pavilion to participate in this voyage, and the entire team had a total of six armed merchant ships and more than 300 people. We hope that this time we can open up the Shenmu Continent route in one fell swoop. ”

"Even the boss is already a big boss who is rich enough to rival the country," Qingshi sighed, "but he is still willing to take risks, have the courage to pioneer and innovate, although he has suffered repeated setbacks, but he has not changed his original intention for a hundred years, such a spirit is really rare!" Bluestone admires! ”

"The master of Qingda has won the award," Lian Shankai said, "Isn't it the same for the master of Qingda and the other masters of the Xuanhu?" We are all adventurers, truth-seekers, and like-minded people! If you go together, you will be able to cooperate sincerely, complement each other's strengths and weaknesses, and greatly increase the chance of success! ”

"Hmm!" Duan Wutian said, "That makes sense! ”

Chen Tianye and Hu Hailong also agreed, and couldn't help nodding together.

But it was the big boss who made the decision, so Duan Chenhu and Lian Shankai looked at Qingshi together.

Qingshi remained silent and said lightly: "The auction has just begun, this matter is not in a hurry, let's talk about it after the auction." ”

Lian Shankai was very disappointed, and only said that his proposal was rather abrupt, and it was appropriate for the bluestone master to think about it for a few days. Then he said goodbye and left.
