"Master, please use your brains! My last master was fifty years ago. At that time, how could the pie have such advanced equipment? Of course they would come to the secret room, but at that time, bidding was done by writing notes, and this was the first time I had seen this big screen!"

After explaining angrily, I listened to the little bracelet and continued:

"However, even if it is changed to a large screen, the rules should not change much. Well, if you don't do that, you can take the jade pendant and try it on the machine next to you, won't you know?"

The machine mentioned by the bracelet is located in the north of the hall, and there are two of them, the one on the left is pasted with a big "A" word, and the one on the right is pasted with a "B" word, presumably representing different secret rooms.

As soon as he entered the hall, Shanhe saw several disciples holding jade pendants and operating something on it, but he didn't pay attention to it at the time. Now listening to Xiao Bang's words, he quickly walked through the crowd to the north side, and came to the front of the machine with the word "A" on it.

When I got closer, I found that the interface of this device is very simple, with only one screen, a keyboard and an empty space for the jade pendant.

When Shanhe put the jade pendant into the empty slot, he saw a paragraph pop up on the screen:

"Bidding room: Chamber A. Time: 16 a.m. to 24 p.m. today. If the information is correct, please inject True Qi into the jade pendant to detect your identity. ”

According to the request of the machine, after injecting the internal breath into the jade pendant, another paragraph popped up on the screen:

"Hello, Sanke. Please enter the bid amount and press the confirm button when you are done. ”

Seeing that the other party let him enter the amount so quickly, Shanhe hurriedly asked in his mind: "Little bracelet, what should I do?" It asked me to enter the amount now. ”

"Hehe, it's really still the same old!" After a chuckle, I heard Xiao Bang reply to Shanhe:

"That's not easy, you enter 1 contribution. When the bidding is over, the system will automatically return it to you. ”

Although I don't really understand the reason, but after hearing what the bracelet said, Shanhe pressed 1 point of contribution, and then clicked the confirmation button.

Immediately after, another sentence popped up on the screen:

"The bid has been submitted, please check the final result at 15:50 today. Good luck!"

Seeing that the bidding process was over, Shanhe took off the jade pendant.

At the same time, he also saw that on the big screen located on the south side of the hall, another person's name was added to the A-word split screen: Sanke. The bid amount column is still empty.

After seeing this scene, Shanhe was just about to ask Xiao Bang about it, but he heard Xiao Bang speak first:

"Master, you go to the B-shaped machine next to you and try it again to see if you can bid at the same time. ”

Hearing this, Shanhe had to postpone the inquiry, and ran to another machine to insert the jade pendant into the empty slot.

But alas, soon he saw a prompt pop up on the screen:

"Sorry, each disciple can only participate in one secret room bidding at a time. ”

After reading these words, the little bracelet asked Shanhe to take out the jade pendant. When he returned to the previous corner, Xiao Bang told Shanhe about the rules of bidding:

"Master, it seems that the bidding rules of the secret room have not changed, and the one-time bidding method is still used. ”

"One-time bidding method?" Shanhe said puzzledly, "What do you mean?"

"The so-called one-time bidding method is its literal meaning, everyone only has one chance to bid. There is still a big difference from the auction in the secular world. ”

"Huh, didn't Senior Brother Keluo say that it's similar to an auction?"

"Alas, that Luo Fat Man has not really participated in the bidding, and he has come very few times, and it is normal to get the rules wrong, you are right to listen to me. ”

After clearing his throat, he listened to the little bracelet say confidently:

"Usually at auctions, each bidder has multiple opportunities to bid, and can constantly adjust their strategy according to the bidder's offer, which I call the 'clear auction method', and it is also a very popular auction method in your secular world. However, this method is not used in the secret room bidding, but a more exciting and ancient one-time bidding method! This method stipulates that each player only has one chance to bid, and once the purchase is made, no one can change it, and no one knows how much the opponent has bet until the answer is revealed, so there are often some ...... Very interesting situation!heyhehehe......"

Speaking of this, Xiao Bang actually laughed to himself, and Shanhe immediately asked:

"Uh, what's an interesting situation?"

"For example, I've seen someone who spent 500 points to win a bid, but the second place only came out with 300 points, which is equivalent to digging an extra 200 points for nothing, and another time, a person bid 400 points, thinking that he could win. But I didn't expect someone to come out with 401 points and take away the room with a 1-point advantage, hehe, it's also very interesting. So in my opinion, the one-time bidding method is more exciting than your secular auction method, and at the same time it is easier to pick up the bargain. ”

"Pick up a bargain?" Hearing these words, Shanhe was puzzled and said, "What do you mean? How can this be a bargain?"

"The most interesting thing about this model is that the bidding is not transparent! no one knows what the competitors are bidding until the results are announced. Each bidder bids according to their own heart's price, so there will often be some upsets. ”

"Uh...... I still don't understand!"

"Alas, it's so hard to explain everything to you!" After a complaint, I heard Xiao Bang say another way:

"People who often come here to bid are generally divided into two mentalities! The first is the imperative type: they come here to win the qualification of the secret room, and they are very generous, and they can make 400 points and never 300 points, and they generally go to the upper limit of the bidding. ”

"Hehe, it sounds a bit like a local tyrant?" said Shanhe with a smile.

"It's almost, but it's not necessarily all local tyrants, it's mainly due to personality. In their opinion, it is more important to win the secret room than to save money, so they don't calculate the gain or loss of contribution. ”

"Oh, what about the other kind of person?"

"The other is the budget-conscious type. Most of them, like you, don't have a lot of money and want to win the bid at a low price. Of course, there are a small number of people who are very rich, but they are just reluctant to spend more, and they are cautious every time they make a move. ”

"Uh...... If they have money, why don't they want to pay more? Do they want to win the bid?"

"Hehe, according to my analysis, most of these people are not in a hurry to use the secret room. If they can win it at a low price, they will naturally enter happily, but if they don't win, there will be no regrets and losses. In their eyes, perhaps it is more fun to win the secret room at a low price than to bid directly at a high price. ”
