Chapter 115: The Female Cultivator in the Auction House
There are an estimated number of these seats, all of which are large and comfortable. The second floor is a private room, and the people below can't see the inside of the private room on the second floor, but the second floor is the opposite, and you can have an unobstructed view of the situation below.
Although the auction hall is large, the auction table can be clearly seen from any angle, which should also be arranged in a corresponding formation.
Sure enough, there were more than 100 cultivators sitting in the seats on the first floor, and people were entering one after another. Some of the cultivators who had just entered the auction hall were relaxed and natural, some were very surprised, and some looked around and looked around.
Zhou Yang immediately found a sense of balance, it turned out that there were people who had never been to the auction house like himself.
He and Mo Chenglong found their respective seats, and they both sat firmly in them with their eyes closed, waiting for the auction to start.
There were more and more cultivators in the auction hall, and after about half an hour, less than half of the thousands of seats were left. At this time, there was still a cup of tea before the auction, and the number of cultivators who entered gradually decreased.
Zhou Yang, who was recuperating his mind, was awakened by a bell, and opened his eyes suddenly, only to see so many cultivators around, and he was also taken aback. Who said that Tu Yan City was poor after the catastrophe, didn't there be five or six hundred people here? Not counting the distinguished guests on the second floor, the entrance fee for these people alone would cost more than 100,000 spirit stones.
The auction house is really a demon beast that can drop spirit stones!
At this time, there were figures swaying on the auction table, and the first to appear were eight gorgeous female cultivators, all of whom were graceful and amorous, wearing low-cut short-sleeved robes, and a large area of snow-white skin was exposed, which opened the eyes of some cultivators who had never seen the world. Some of the people had straight eyes and couldn't stop swallowing.
The eight nuns stood in two rows, but their hands were empty.
The eight beautiful female cultivators smiled skillfully, bowed lightly to the audience, and then walked out of the back, a white-faced middle-aged cultivator. This person is dressed in a silver robe, with a square scarf on his head, and his demeanor is chic, elegant and handsome.
Zhou Yang's eyes couldn't help but condense, this person's aura was even stronger than that of his uncle, at least he was also a master in the middle of Tianyuan!
This was the second shock he had received since entering the auction house.
The middle-aged elegant cultivator hugged his fists to the audience and said loudly: "Shang Yufei, the first deacon of the Tuyan Branch of the Xiatongzhou Auction House, thank you for coming to our bank, Shang is polite." ”
There was silence in the audience, and Shang Yufei continued: "Today, our bank opened for the first time, and everyone already knows about the discount, so don't say more here." But I'm going to give you a surprise next, I wonder if you're interested?"
When the cultivators below heard that there was still a surprise, it must be a bargain, so they said in a loud voice: "Of course I'm interested!"
"Hehe, okay, then today will be the decision, all the cultivators who have not bought the items, the auction house will give away materials equivalent to the admission fee, which can be regarded as a thank you for your love to our bank! Of course, the guests who have bought the items will also reduce the entrance fee, and then reduce the total price by 10%!"
"Okay!" As soon as Shang Yufei's words fell, many cultivators in the audience shouted hello. These cultivators are not all wealthy people, and a considerable number of them are very painful about the entrance fee of the two hundred spirit stones.
Originally, this was also a good thing for Zhou Yang, which was equivalent to exempting the entrance fee, but Zhou Yang just saw that the Tongzhou merchants were not pleasing to the eye, and muttered in a low voice: "Send materials, this is really a superfluous move! ”
His voice was very small, and only Mo Chenglong beside him could hear it.
But as if in response to what Zhou Yang said, Shang Yufei on the stage said again: "There may be Taoist friends who will say, simply don't collect the venue fee or get it if you refund it, why bother doing it? However, what I want to say is that the auction house has the rules of the auction house, if we don't collect the venue fee, it will be a violation of the rules of the auction house in various cities, which is unreasonable and taboo, and will naturally be questioned by peers in the industry."
Therefore, this move did not break the rules of the industry, but also brought benefits to you, it can be said that both are perfect, everyone is happy, are you right?" Shang Yufei was very eloquent, and in just a few words, he eliminated the doubts of others, and even Zhou Yang, who had always seen that Tongzhou Commercial Bank was not pleasing to the eye, had to nod secretly.
"Okay, without further ado, I think you're all here for the rare materials, and then the auction will begin. Before presenting the first lot, I would just like to say that in order to celebrate the opening of the bank, the materials for this auction were collected from the major cities, and the scale of this auction is by no means lower than that of any large city, but this is the only time, and if you want to participate in such a large auction in the future, you can only go to Anping or other large cities.
Okay, now I'm done talking, let's ask for the first lot, which can be regarded as throwing bricks and attracting jade, no, it is throwing jade and attracting treasures!
Shang Yufei waved his hand behind him, and the eight glamorous female cultivators also stretched out their jade hands backwards, which were originally short sleeves, but this one stretched out, and the half sleeves slipped off partially, revealing most of the jade arms, a row of jade arms with white flowers, which made the male cultivators in the audience swallow their saliva wildly.
As the women pointed out, an equally gorgeous nun walked out, but the color of the robe was different. The nun held a tray in her hand, which was covered with red silk.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this first lot is a high-quality artifact. Of course, ordinary high-grade magic weapons will not be auctioned by auction houses, and this magic weapon is a masterpiece among high-grade magic weapons, and it is the masterpiece of famous masters, and its power is no less than that of ordinary superb magic weapons. Another point, this thing has an ancient heritage, called the White Jade Star Bracelet, please take a look!"
After that, Shang Yufei lifted off the red silk on the tray, and what appeared in front of everyone was a silver-white bracelet, the size of an ordinary bracelet, crystal clear, glowing with silver light, and it was a fine product at a glance. However, the material is not all white jade, and other things should be added to it.
"After this bracelet is infused with spiritual power, it can release a large number of stars, covering a range of several zhang, and within this range, it is extremely difficult for cultivators below Tianyuan to escape. This magic weapon is made by the Lingtong Prefecture Business Alliance refining master Baili Shang's predecessors, who are not only our senior refining masters, but also a Jindan powerhouse. The white jade star bracelet is the early famous work of the predecessors of Baili, which is modeled after the ancient magic weapon star bracelet, which is not only practical, but also has collection value.
The starting price of this white jade star bracelet is 2,000 first-grade spirit stones, and the auction will start now, and the price increase will not be less than two hundred each time, please bid for all the Taoist friends who are interested in this magic weapon!"
Zhou Yang is also very curious about this magic weapon, but what is even more curious is the refining master Baili Shang, this person is not only a master of refining, but also a strong Jindan with great magical powers, and he is really a strange person.
He knew that although a cultivator's lifespan was much longer than that of mortals, the path of cultivation was also long, and a person's energy was limited, so if he focused on alchemy or refining, then the time spent on cultivation would be reduced. No matter how high the qualifications are, entering the realm is much slower than those who concentrate on cultivation.
Some alchemists and refiners focused too much on alchemy and refining, and their cultivation stagnated for a long time, until the longevity was exhausted, and they could not go further. Some only go to the middle and middle stages of the Lingtai, and those who are better reach the late stage or peak of the Lingtai, and those with excellent cultivation qualifications can break through the Tianyuan Realm, just like Master Kinoshita Akiki of Anping City.
Zhou Yang had never heard of an alchemist or refiner who could reach the Jindan realm, and when he heard Shang Yufei's words today, he knew that he was lonely and unheard, and he had Tongzhou Commercial Bank. Of course, it is a business alliance, not a commercial house in a certain city, but this also proves that the heritage of Tongzhou commercial bank should not be underestimated.
However, he was also a little puzzled, the magic weapon refined by the master of Jindan only shot 2,000 spirit stones, is it too cheap?
In fact, he still doesn't know much about the rules of the auction house, the starting price of general items will not be too high, and will be lower than the market price, otherwise it will scare a group of customers to dare not go to the auction, but the final transaction price is often much higher than the market price.
"Two thousand two hundred first-grade spirit stones!" After a few breaths, a cultivator in the audience called out the price.
"Two thousand four hundred first-grade spirit stones!" However, as soon as this person's voice fell, someone else made a bid, and it seemed that this magic weapon had indeed attracted some people.
"Two thousand six!"
"Two thousand eight!" Someone came out with two thousand eight first-grade spirit stones, and there was a cold field for a few breaths.
Shang Yufei immediately answered: "This Daoist friend in seat one hundred and twenty-six bid for two thousand eight hundred first-grade spirit stones, and has there been any more bids? This is the early masterpiece of Master Baili, and now Master Baili no longer refines magic weapons, but focuses on refining magic weapons. Therefore, this magic weapon is a masterpiece, and if you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to find it. If there are no Taoist friends who like this magic weapon, if not, then this white jade star bracelet will belong to one hundred and twenty-six Taoist friends, and will anyone bid?"
"Three thousand and one spirit stones!" Shang Yufei's words worked, and someone in the audience came out with three thousand spirit stones.
"Okay, Daoist No. 275 bid for three thousand and one spirit stones, and you haven't bid again?"
"Okay, Daoist friend No. 1009 bid 3,200 yuan! Is there any more bid? Okay, Daoist friend No. 3,06 and 422 bid 3,800 yuan and 100 spirit stones, and there are any more bids?"
In a short period of time, the price of the white jade star bracelet rose all the way to 3,800 first-grade spirit stones, which surprised Zhou Yang a lot. This price is already very high, although the white jade star bracelet is a high-grade magic weapon, and it is also made by a refining master, but after all, it is a high-grade magic weapon, and its own value is about three thousand spirit stones, and it has exceeded its own value when it is auctioned to three thousand eight.
Sure enough, when it came to this price, no one in the audience shouted the price anymore, and the No. 422 cultivator who stood up was also relieved. Although he liked this artifact, he couldn't afford it if someone raised the price again.
"There is no more bidding, the best magic weapon, the only one in the world, the opportunity must not be lost, it will not come again, there are Taoist friends who fancy this magic weapon, there is still a chance, otherwise you will regret it for life, and there is no more bidding?" Shang Yufei was happy in his heart, this price was already good, but who was afraid of the spirit stone piercing his hands, so he agitated again.
