No, boss, although I just said that you are not so generous, you don't have to show how stingy you are in person!

Dina was speechless.

Lu Xi looked at Clyde deeply and nodded in response, she always felt that it was because she was too happy to shout for eight hundred gold coins that day, so the leader of the mercenary group remembered it, so when she found an opportunity, she wanted her to "break the bank".

However, if there are more lice, I am not afraid of itching, and the huge amount of eight hundred gold coins is in front, and one more silver coin and six hundred copper coins are nothing.

One of the silver coins is the price of the temporary pet certificate, five hundred copper coins are the price of bribing the guards, and the other hundred copper coins are the personal cost of entering the city.

Thinking of this, Lu Xi couldn't help but look at Dina, "Is the cost of mercenaries and civilians entering the city so different?" "That's a hundredfold difference.

Dina nodded, "Yes, most civilians can't earn a few hundred copper coins a year, one copper coin is a family's day's expenses for them, no matter how much money there is, if the fee to enter the city is too expensive, there should be no civilians entering the city." ”

"We mercenaries are different," Dina puffed up proudly, "we can earn dozens of silver coins for any mission." "Actually, it's not that much.

Of course, although mercenaries make money quickly, they also spend it quickly, such as potions for wound medicine, weapon maintenance, and equipment purchases, all of which cost money, and even elemental magic weapons, the price is directly in gold coins.

Even if these don't cost, you always have to eat and drink, like the commoners who feed on black bread, most mercenaries will definitely not want to, not to mention the white bread that the nobles eat, there must always be gray bread, the price is more than ten times that of black bread.

If you buy another barrel of wine, a few silver coins will be gone, and it will be enough to drink for two or three days, and then buy some vegetables and meat, clothes and daily necessities, and the money will be spent like this.

Therefore, most mercenaries are not much different from ordinary civilians, except that their quality of life may be better, and they will encounter more dangerous situations.

"Let's go separately, meet at the city gate in five hours, don't be late." Clyde took out a worn-out pocket watch from his bosom and opened it to see that it was one o'clock in the afternoon, and in five hours it would be six o'clock in the afternoon.

Usually the gates of human towns are closed between 7 and 10 p.m., and depending on the geography of the town, there will be a slight change in time, except for the countries of the Far North, which are basically not earlier than 7 o'clock.

Xiulan and Kagli were naturally in a group, and already had a clear goal, and after saying hello, the two of them took the first step.

Leaving Lu Xi and Dina, naturally Clyde and Clyde are counted as a group, although Dina and Lu Xi can also be counted as a separate group, but the two girls, especially those who look good, are easy to cause all kinds of trouble, and they still need to be accompanied by Clyde, who looks very deterrent.

"Where is Miss Lucy going?" Clyde asked Lu Xi's opinion, there was Xiu Lan to buy supplies, and their group didn't need to buy anything extra, just take Lu Xi as the main one.

After all, the main body of this escort mission is Lu Xi, and it is normal for everything to be based on Lu Xi.

"If you want to sell something, where should you go?" Lu Xi thought about it, she did have some things she wanted to buy, but more importantly, she didn't have any money in hand, only those gems and jewels on her body.

And sooner or later, she has to exchange these things for money and pay them to the dragon hunting mercenary group, and the sooner she knows the value of these items on her body, she can also make plans as soon as possible - such as what to do if she can't afford to pay eight hundred gold coins.

Clyde guessed Lu Xi's plan, didn't show any other expression, just nodded, "I know." ”

A quick-witting little boy who was squatting on the side of the road at the gate of the city called out, and Clyde threw him a few copper coins, "Where is the auction house in town?" ”

"Mr. Mercenary, please go this way." The little boy put away the copper coins with a smile on his face, and led the way in front of him diligently, while Lu Xi and the others followed.

The little boy's mouth never stopped along the way, he didn't inquire about Clyde's whereabouts, but just casually talked about the big and small things in the town, some of them were gossip, and some of them were the latest public information that had been determined.

For example, a noble lord has issued a new bounty in the mercenary association, and he wants to find someone to do something, and another example is that the auction house has something new to auction recently.

Most of the news had to do with Clyde's identity or destination, so no one shut up the little boy, and they all listened silently.

"Mr. Mercenary, it's here." The little boy stopped, not too close to the front door of the auction house, and even if he didn't say anything, everyone saw the words on it.

The auction house here is a three-storey building, one of the tallest buildings compared to other houses in town.

It's just that Lu Xi didn't look too surprised...... She can see buildings of this magnitude in towns and villages on the planet, and it's really nothing remarkable.

Even if it's an architectural style, there aren't many refreshing places, you have to know that place in her hometown, but any style of architecture can be mixed and matched for you.

On the contrary, it is the surrounding environmental atmosphere, as well as the way people around him dress and act, that make Lu Xi a little fresh, quite a kind of holographic version of the Western fantasy game.

Clyde has been paying attention to Lu Xi, and seeing that Lu Xi is only a little interested in these people who come and go, he is accustomed to the tall building of the auction house, and he has confirmed Lu Xi's identity a lot in his heart.

Although Lu Xi's identity should have been confirmed a long time ago, some of Lu Xi's performances along the way always made people a little suspicious.

Gave the little boy a dozen more copper coins, Clyde waved him to leave, but the little boy did not leave in a hurry, but nodded and pointed to a corner, "Mr. Mercenary, I'll stay there later, if you come out, you can ask me to lead the way, I know all the places in this city." ”

The tone is quite proud.

Clyde didn't refuse, and nodded, "Okay, you can go over." ”

Lu Xi looked at the auction house and couldn't help but ask Dina, "Why don't you go to the pawnshop and come to the auction house?" ”

"Although the auction house gives a relatively low price, it will not rip off customers, and if the pawnshop does not know anyone, it is difficult to sell things at a high price." It was Clyde who opened his mouth to explain.

There was another reason, Clyde didn't say.

That is, the auction house has enough privacy protection, no one knows whether you are buying or selling, and the pawnshop basically does not, and even the people inside will collude with other black mercenaries to leak the information of customers.

Although Clyde is not afraid of trouble, it is better to have less trouble.

There were two waiters in front of the gate of the auction house, and they stopped a few people very politely, and they checked Clyde's mercenary certificate much more carefully than the guards, and only after confirming the authenticity did they let a few people in.

Immediately after entering, a female waitress with a sweet smile greeted her and asked the purpose of several people, "Do you want to buy something or sell something?" If you are shopping, you can go to the lounge on the second floor and wait for a while. ”

"Selling something?" Lu Xi asked directly.

The female waiter looked at Lu Xi and Clyde, and immediately identified the identities of several people, and showed a brighter smile towards Lu Xi, "If you want to sell something, please come with me." ”

But the waitress didn't rush to lead the way, but looked at Clyde and Dina and asked Lu Xi, "Are these two guests with you too?" ”

"Myself." Lu Xi thought for a moment and refused Clyde and Dina to follow, she didn't want to wait until the money from the sale was not enough, and the two would know about it.

"Okay." The female waiter was not surprised, just as she could easily tell that Lu Xi should be a noble lady and not a mercenary, she could also tell that these people were not a complete group.

beckoned in the other direction, and immediately another female waitress trotted over and led Clyde and Dina in the other direction, which should be the lounge just mentioned.

Lu Xi didn't observe much more, and followed the female waiter to a room on the third floor, the room was not big, but it was complete, the luxurious and soft sofa in the middle, there was steaming tea on the table, and a thin middle-aged man wearing single-framed glasses was sitting opposite the sofa.

After seeing Lu Xi come in, the thin middle-aged man stood up and stretched out his hand towards Lu Xi, "Hello, miss, I'm Weide, the No. 2 connoisseur of Warners Auction House. ”

"Hello." Lu Xi shook the other party's hand back, one touch was parting, he didn't introduce himself, and had a few more business contacts, like this kind of polite etiquette, he had already been deeply accustomed to it.

Weide seemed to have determined something from Lu Xi's actions just now, with a shallow smile on his face, not caring about Lu Xi's lack of self-introduction, and waving his hand to let the female waiter who led the way leave.

Lu Xi sat down under the guidance of the other party, Weide raised his hand and poured Lu Xi a cup of tea, and then spoke, "I don't know if you have any items you want to auction in our auction house, Miss." ”

"Some jewelry." Lu Xi took out all the dozens of gems from his arms.

For a moment, Weide's gaze seemed to be a little disappointed, but he did a good job of covering it up and appraising Lu Xi one by one.

"One gold coin." A bunch of pearls are drawn together, and of course, the price is for a single one, not all of them together.

Converted to 100,000 pearls on the earth, it is really not cheap, of course, the quality is much better than on the earth, Lu Xi is very content, so many, it can probably be sold for more than 30 gold coins.

"Ten gold coins." A small gem.

"Twenty-two gold coins." A bigger gem.

"Thirty-six gold coins." "Seventeen gold coins." "Twenty gold coins. "Nine gold coins. "Fifty gold coins. "Fourteen gold coins. "One hundred and twenty-six gold coins." ”……

It seems that the value is not too big every time, but if you think about it carefully, the unit of gold coins is equal to the "100,000 yuan" on the earth, and it is normal for a gemstone to sell for 1.8 million yuan, and a few particularly large gems, or their own value is relatively high, can be sold for a little more price.

Lu Xi silently calculated, so many gems added up to only more than six hundred gold coins, which was not high, but it was still a lot short of her needs...... I knew that I had bid 100 gold coins.

"A total of 637 gold coins. Miss, do you have any other needs? Weide reported a number, which was not different from the result calculated by Lu Xi.

Weide unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, although it was not a large order as he imagined, but the price of so many gems added up was not in vain for his busy trip.

Lu Xi began to recall that he still had anything to sell, the pocket watch was not good, it had her photo on it, and it was very useful, and it was very important to be able to determine the time at any time.

By the way, there is also a box of cosmetics with no traces of use, maybe it can be sold?

"Wait, you can't accept this thing." Lu Xi took out his gold handbag inlaid with oversized gems from his arms, and took out the vanity box from the handbag.

All of Weide's attention was immediately attracted by the pure gold handbag that Lu Xi took out, and he didn't even glance at the makeup box a few times, and said in a slightly urgent tone, "Miss, you seem to be in urgent need of money, I don't know if this bag is willing to cut your love." ”

"Our auction house is willing to pay 3,000 gold coins to accept it!"

Oh?! Lu Xi was shocked for a moment, and then noticed that the bag in her hand actually exuded a strong glow of money, she never expected that so many things in her hand turned out to be the most valuable in this bag?!

"Or if you are willing to leave this bag, you can also hand it over to our bank to auction for you, three days later, our auction house will have an auction, and the auction price will be three or seven points for you, and you will be seven and we will three."

Seeing that Lu Xi didn't react, Weide hurriedly spoke again, and it could be seen that he was very moved by Lu Xi's bag.

Lu Xi thought about it carefully, she definitely couldn't stay to participate in the auction three days later, the time to travel was very tight, it was better not to waste it, or not to waste it.

But the price given by Wilder cannot be fully trusted, Clyde said that the price given by the auction house is generally on the low side.

For example, for those pearls, the auction house can only give 1 gold coin, but when you take it to the pawnshop, you can give 2 gold coins or 3 gold coins.

Of course, if the pawnshop thinks that the seller doesn't understand or is easy to bully, it will also offer a price of dozens of silver coins, or even lower, just to watch people put down dishes.

This is very good for the auction house, although the price they give is low, they will not deceive customers, and they can ensure that the guests will at least make money, but the auction house will not lose, they will only make more.

"Five thousand gold coins!" Lu Xi decided to negotiate the price and raise the price again.

Old people often say that when buying something, the price is directly half of it, and if you sell it for 100, you will ask if you will sell it for 50, Lu Xi thinks that the same should be true for those who sell things, and he will buy it for 3,000 gold coins, so he will double it and ask him if he will sell it for 6,000 gold coins.

However, Lu Xi felt that doubling might be a bit too much, she couldn't open her mouth a little, and she was embarrassed to speak, so it would be better to lower it a little.

"Deal!" Hearing Lu Xi's bid, Weide didn't even hesitate for long, he gritted his teeth and settled down, his face full of joy.

Lu Xi's lips opened slightly, his eyes were slightly dull, it's over, it's still going to be less, it should be doubled directly, and it shouldn't be self-determined!
