"What?! 50,000 credits? Why don't you grab it! Wang Hong was immediately anxious when he heard this astronomical amount, and converted it into a full 50 gold coins, which was enough to cover the funds of the Murachu Martial Arts Hall for nearly ten years, and according to the meager income he earned from hunting, he was afraid that he would not be able to make up this amount in his life.

"Cut, it's a hillbilly! What is a mere 50 gold coins? Do you think people who don't have some capital are qualified to compete for this so-called treasure? Wang Qing said with a look of contempt, "For such a divine object, 50 gold coins are not even a fraction of its transaction price, if a few people do not have this capital in hand, I still advise you not to expect to be able to intervene in such a level of bidding!" ”

Tian Jihong could see that the other party's gaze was glancing at him intentionally or unintentionally, obviously Wang Qing understood that he was the only one of the three who could get the money in hand. It's a pity that he immediately resisted the temptation, even if he came out of this price himself, it would be nerve-wracking; Moreover, he didn't dare to participate in the competition between these big forces in the martial world, even if he really spent a lot of money to auction off the treasure, just with the three of them, it would be impossible to take it out of Dongsheng Town.

Seeing that Tian Jihong had no reaction, Wang Qing also had a trace of disappointment on his face, but he still did not stop and continued to explain the grand occasion of the auction to several people.

The group of people along the way can be regarded as an eye-opener, even when he was a child, he followed his mother to run for his life, and saw several famous big towns, Tianjihong, who had never seen such a lively and crowded scene now. And all kinds of people passing by around him are all the same as the four of them, shouting and crowding in the crowd over and over again, but on the other hand, they are looking left and right looking forward to feasting their eyes; Whenever some famous forces pass by, they will attract criticism from everyone.

"Looking at the outfits of this group of people, as well as the sword in their hands, it seems to be the Purple Sun River Samurai, right? I really didn't expect that someone from the shogunate would be attracted to Tokatsu Town from such a distant place! ”

"What is this? If you look at the group of guys in armor on the left, it's obvious that they're knights from the Eastern Continent! It is definitely impossible for people from such a distant realm to come from the other side of the world specifically for an auction, most of them have heard about the auction when they were running errands in the Seibu Continent, so they rushed to try their luck, right? ”

"Yes, yes, such a figure who usually only exists among monks by word of mouth, is actually gathered in my Dongsheng Town today, what a great miracle! I just don't know who will end up with the treasures in this auction? ”

……

About half an hour passed, and a few people who followed the direction of the crowd all the way finally saw the familiar back street square, and not far in front of it, the glorious gate that seemed to swallow up the flood of people into the stomach was the gate of the Tianbao Pavilion that had been firmly closed on weekdays. The brilliant curtain of light seemed to be cut off by a strange barrier, and even the monk's soul sense could not probe the situation inside.

"A few of you have also seen it, the realm of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion is ahead, and entering from this light gate is a direct lead to the so-called human-level auction venue." Wang Qing, who was going to take a few people to the Tianqing Chamber of Commerce for a while, had to give up this idea when he saw that the wide square on weekdays was crowded with nearly thousands of people.

"According to the rules, the auction of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion starts at noon, and the human-level auction is a cover to attract low-level monks and mortals, and its territory is the most vast. Don't look at this small Tianbao Pavilion that doesn't look good, in fact, its interior has already been constructed into an independent space by the power to exert the law of space. Especially in the area on the first floor, the so-called human-level auction hall is more than enough to accommodate more than 100,000 people. Wang Qing continued to explain.

"And the people who are qualified to step into the second-layer earth-level auction are much less, and as for the heaven-level places at the higher levels, there are even fewer people who can enter. The latter is the realm where the top forces in the martial world and other scattered cultivators haunt the realm, and in order to prevent these well-known figures in the martial realm from sweeping away the goods auctioned in the realm and also to give other niche forces the opportunity to participate in the auction, the earth-level and heaven-level auctions are specially set to be held at the same time period. In this way, monks of different levels can often only choose one of the ones that suits their own cultivation to participate. ”

Tian Jihong also nodded in understanding, although this may lose some potential customers, but such a move ensures that a loose cultivator like himself who does not have the support of the forces behind him has a chance to rise, which is quite beneficial to the reputation and reputation of Tianbao Pavilion in the mainland, otherwise it would not be said to attract the attention of so many people in the mainland.

Moreover, this does not mean that those big forces will give up the possibility of prefecture-level auctions, and while their core figures are distracted to participate in heaven-level auctions, they will also often send their subordinates or the best of the younger generation to compete in prefecture-level auctions. Although it is difficult for the auction items at the prefecture level to enter the eyes of those martial arts powers, they are still very attractive to the children of those who have shallow cultivation at the bottom.

"So, at most, we can go to the scene of the prefecture-level auction to feast our eyes? It's a pity that I can't meet the legends of all parties in the real heaven-level auction! Wang Hong couldn't help but say with some regret.

"No, it's not." This time, Lin Rong, who had previous experience in participating, took the lead in explaining, "The duration of heaven-level auctions is often much longer than that of earth-level auctions, and this is also one of the small methods used by Tianbao Pavilion in secret, so that those forces whose financial resources are between the earth-level and the heaven-level will still have the opportunity to get a glimpse of the treasures in the heaven-level auction after participating in the earth-level auction." ”

"Oh? Why is this so? It stands to reason that the higher the level of cultivation, the rarer the treasures that can be taken out, and the number of goods in the prefecture-level auction should far exceed the heaven-level auction, right? Why is it shorter? Tian Jihong couldn't help but ask with some doubts.

Lin Rong also shook his head and said that he didn't know much about this question, after all, he had never had the honor to participate in a real heaven-level auction, and he was only half-aware of the details. In the end, Wang Qing answered the doubts in Tianjihong's heart:

"The reason is very simple, when it comes to the level of heaven-level auctions, especially those rare treasures in the final stage, they often can't be measured by the number of ordinary gold coins." Wang Qing said.

"At this level of bidding, although everyone shouts the price, it is still measured according to the value of the currency, but even if there are storage utensils at the level of spiritual treasures, ordinary people will basically not carry millions of gold coins with them, which is difficult to store and access, and it is not safe to carry. It is common to leave seals or circles on ordinary utensils to prevent them from being looted by other forces, but it is difficult to do so if there are piles of gold coins like small mountains. ”

"Therefore, all parties often bid through barter, which requires the background of Tianbao Pavilion to review and evaluate all kinds of bidding items one by one, which takes a lot of time." Wang Qing continued, "After the various forces enter the market, it often takes a long time to convert the treasures used for bidding into the gold coins and tickets used for Tianbao Pavilion before the official auction begins. This is also the main reason why the day auction lasts longer. ”

"I see, but does it mean that there is no commercial bill that circulates between the continents and can be held around and used directly to exchange currencies between places?" Tian Jihong couldn't help asking.

"Hey, you're asking the right question." Wang Qing's eyes showed a gleam, and he said in a deep voice, "Even I only know a rough idea about this matter. I can only say that in the Douwu Continent, which was dominated by the great ancient families a long time ago, there used to be a common currency, and there were also silver numbers that could be exchanged for coins at any time, and its coverage was not much better than today's Tianbao Pavilion. ”

However, due to the decline of the ancient family and the gradual antagonism and division between the eastern and western continents, the contradictions continued to intensify. Especially in the past hundred years, the war between the Yuzong of the Xiwu Shiyu Sect and the Dongbu Heavenly Underworld Martial Mansion has become more and more fierce, and the once unified commercial and trade currency system between the continents has also fallen apart. ”

"Even a grand force as strong as the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion that straddles the Eastern and Western Continents does not dare to say that it can once again unify the monetary system across the entire Douwu Continent, and only dares to issue independent commercial tickets for internal use during its auction period. Not to mention, there are still strong competitors in the Dongwu Realm of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, if it really dares to take all the commercial profits of the Eastern and Western Martial Continents, Shi Yuzong and the Heavenly Martial Mansion will join forces to suppress it. Hey! At that time, the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion will face a catastrophe. ”

……

The four of them followed Wang Qing who led the way at the front, and under the latter's left and right turns, they easily bypassed the dense crowd in the square and occupied the quota for entering the Tianbao Pavilion first. Along the way, Tian Jihong fell into deep thought, and his mind was all recalling what Wang Qing said,

Although he had already heard countless people mention the strength of the Shi Yu Sect, he had never imagined that it would make a top-level force like the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion across the continent dare not make the slightest mistake. What made him feel even more incredible was that the horror of Shi Yuzong had reached the level of affecting the pattern of the continent and even the course of history.

The latter provoked wars in various parts of the martial arts world and made the people's lives miserable, and Tian Jihong had also heard of it, and Tian Jihong had always hated it for such a disregard for life that made the people complain and be displaced. However, hearing Wang Qing's words, his heart was inevitably a little shaken at this time - in the face of such an almost irresistible force, is it really possible to completely overthrow it with the strength of one person?
