Chapter 58: Xiangyang Auction (2)

The VIP box on the second floor is said to be a private room, but in fact, the size is only equivalent to a carriage, about five square meters.

In the middle of the box, there is a long table, on which is a set of tea sets, there is a couch on each side of the low table, and there is an incense burner in the corner.

"How am I going to bargain here?" Bai Ya sat down on the couch and stretched.

"Childe, please look!" Wanqing said, pointing to the three silk ropes on the side wall of the couch.

"The green rope is the first price increase, the red rope is a double price increase, there is a scale below, two moments is twice the price increase of a single price, and so on. The last piece of gold rope is special and indicates that the buyer has something that the seller specifies, but it is negotiated separately during the auction. ”

"Oh, then if you want to auction something but have less jade money, can you use other items as collateral here?" asked Bai Ya curiously.

"Yes, if the son temporarily has less jade money, and the amount is not large, Wanqing can make the decision. If the number is large, Wanqing can help you get an auction manager here. The costume beauty smiled sweetly, "It's just that the slave family persuaded the son not to do this, and it was a great loss to temporarily offset it with things." ”

"Hmm!" White Cliff nodded noncommittally.

"Childe, the auction has just started, but do you want to buy some wine and food in Wanqing?"

"Okay, you go!" Bai Ya thought about it, before the martial artist reached the innate level, he couldn't feed on the vitality of heaven and earth, especially when he cultivated hard skills, he had to eat a lot almost every day to make up for the consumption.

Taking advantage of the evening to go shopping, Bai Ya looked at the auction table through the small window of the box.

At this time, the auction had been about a quarter of an hour, but neither the seats below nor the vacant box were full.

The first auction item was some medicinal herbs, of course, this was not about trees, it was about selling in lots.

Bai Ya looked a little bored, the quality of these herbs was not bad, and they needed to be cultivated by special people. It's just that Qingcheng has a strong aura, and the terrain is rich, except for some special plants that are extremely yin and yang, there are no medicinal herbs that Qingcheng can't produce.

However, in the secular world, these herbs are extremely popular, and can be used to refine the elixir that even the princes and nobles need.

He now understood why the organizer of the auction had the Apricot Forest Alliance, and this amount of medicinal herbs could only be used by the Apricot Forest Alliance in one region.

When Wanqing came back from picking up wine and food, and accompanied Baiya to eat and drink for an hour, the auction at the bottom finally entered the single product auction, and something that interested him slowly appeared.

"Everyone, please see, the tortoise shell exhibit in the No. 36 glass vessel is made of thousand-year-old Beihai Xuan Turtle, and the inscription circle is secretly combined with the nine palace gossip. According to the appraisal of the appraiser of this association, this item is a high-grade weapon, with a reserve price of 30 jade coins. A single price increase of five jade dollars, a fixed price of one hundred jade dollars, half an hour later, the bidding will begin......"

The sudden noise in the venue attracted Bai Ya's attention, and he put down his wine glass and looked towards the venue, just in time to hear the auctioneer's introduction.

"High-grade magic weapon?" Bai Ya raised his eyebrows and looked at the auction table fixedly, but the box was a little far away from there, but he couldn't look too closely.

"Childe, do you use a glass mirror?" Wanqing smiled and handed Bai Ya a monocle.

Bai Ya put it on and found that it was indeed a telescope-like artifact, and hundreds of meters away, he could still see the tortoise shell in the sealed glass dish clearly.

"Hey, this is the top grade?" After seeing it clearly, Bai Ya couldn't help but be disappointed.

This tortoise shell is green in color, the back of the nail is thick, slightly hairy, and to be honest, the material used for the magic weapon is really good. But the problem is that the tortoise shell is broken, and there is a narrow cut in the ribs of the tortoise shell, which seems to have been cut by some kind of sword, and even the magic seal on it has been broken.

Although this damaged position can still be repaired, once the magic seal is broken, the internal qi flowing into the tortoise shell cannot envelop the martial artist's body in all directions, leaving a flaw similar to the cover door.

Not to mention the top grade, this thing is not qualified even if it is a low-grade magic weapon, and it is a defective magic weapon in the eyes of the martial artists of the sect.

"Childe, this auction item is indeed a top-grade weapon, could it be that Childe thinks something is wrong?" Wanqing glanced at the items on the stage and looked at Bai Ya curiously.

"Armament...... Is there a difference between a weapon and a magic weapon?" Bai Ya couldn't help but touch his chin, the magic weapon used by the martial artists of the sect is not called a weapon.

"Magic weapon?, could it be that Gongzi said that it is a magic weapon used by the martial artists of the Immortal Sect?" Wan Qing blinked and replied carefully, "The materials used in the weapons are the same as the magic weapons, but due to various flaws and damage, there is no mysterious effect of the magic weapons. ”

"I see!" Bai Ya glanced at the tortoise shell that was about to exceed fifty jade coins again, and no longer paid attention to the sale.

It's not that Bai Ya doesn't look down on the tortoise shell, this thing is broken in the ribs, and the front and back are intact. If he buys it, he will go back to the mountain and ask the master of the rune array to refill the rune, and it can still be used as a low-grade magic weapon.

It's just that he majored in hard skills, but it was best to rely less on foreign objects in defense, otherwise his mentality would be too comfortable, and the iron cloth shirt would enter the country slowly.

"I'm tired, if there are no exercises in the auction below, then don't wake me up!" Bai Ya stretched, drank all the wine in the cup, and lay on the couch sideways.

"Yes, Childe!" Wanqing responded obediently, knelt down in front of the couch, and gently beat his back and pinched his legs.

Bai Ya was awakened by hunger, and when he woke up, he saw that Wanqing was still kneeling there, holding a feather fan to fan him.

"Thank you for your hard work, how long have you been sleeping?" Bai Ya showed a hint of a smile, this costume beauty served him only for gold and silver, but those who are loyal to their duties will always win the appreciation of others.

"You've been asleep for more than three hours!" Wanqing smiled a little tiredly.

The auction lasts for two days and one night, which is thirty-six hours and eighteen hours. Except for the middle four hours, which are the recuperation period, there are seven auctions in the remaining fourteen hours.

Bai Ya slept for more than six hours, and the second auction was almost over, no wonder Wanqing was also tired.

"Well, if you are hungry, you go and change a table of wine and food, ask for more meat dishes, and the rest of the gold will be rewarded to you!" Bai Ya took out a large ingot, which weighed about five taels and threw it on the table, "After the wine and food are served, you can go and rest for a while!"

"Gongzi Xie!" Wanqing smiled like a flower, but she didn't reluctantly stay.

The auction lasted too long, and if she didn't take a break, she wouldn't be able to hold on.

After the wine and food were served, Bai Ya paid attention to the auction while drinking. It's a pity that until the third auction is halfway through, Wanqing came back from a good night's sleep, and she didn't see anything of interest.

During this period, there was a book of bow secrets, and it was complete. It's a pity that this thing is circulated in the army, and for a warrior like him, it is not very practical.

Despite this, this bow method cheats book still sold for a high price of eighty jade coins because it has a simple general outline and complete exercises, which is more than twice the cheats of "Tianluo Hand".

"Ladies and gentlemen, the items that will be auctioned below are the three finale treasures of the third session. This first one is a book of light skills modified from the Dancing Sky Technique......"

"Oh, it's coming!" Bai Ya was bored, judging from the auctioneer's introduction, the "Silicon Step" consigned by his steward was finally about to debut, but he didn't expect it to become the finale item of one of them.

“...... The name of the lewd thief and the fan boy Hua Zi should be familiar to you. After the association sent people to Shu to investigate, it has been confirmed that this "first-line silicon step" is indeed Huazi's unique skill, and the exercises are intact. The reserve price is 80 jade coins, and the price is increased by 10 jade coins each time, and there is no upper limit, and the auction will start in a quarter of an hour......"

"Fanboy Hua Zi...... But the guy who lewd ~ his mother insulted his father more than ten years ago?"

"I heard that this person has repeatedly escaped from the hands of the martial artists of the sect with his supreme light skills......"

"Someone would shoot such a light cheat......"

"There is no fixed price for this thing and there is no cap, I am afraid that I will not be able to compete for the remaining jade money, but it is a pity that it is ......"

As soon as the auctioneer's words fell, there was a buzz of whispering in the venue.

"Eighty Jade Dollars ......"

"Ninety ......"

"One Hundred and Twenty Jade Money......"

When the quarter of an hour was over, the continuous price increase sounded immediately, and the 100 mark was broken in an instant.

The auctioneers here are highly experienced, and the time set aside before each auction is for the bidder to think.

Of course, depending on the estimated value of the lot, the time reserved by the auctioneer varies slightly, basically between half an hour and a quarter of an hour.

"Childe, but are you interested in this thing?" Wanqing saw that Bai Ya was always paying attention to this auction item, and suddenly her beautiful eyes turned and she asked with a smile.

"Hehe, how can there be a reason to buy your own things!" Bai Ya smiled dumbly.

"This ...... Is it Childe's?" Wanqing covered her mouth and smiled in surprise, "Then the slave family will first congratulate Childe on his wealth!"

"Hmm!" Bai Ya nodded, looked back at the auction, and found that "Silicon Steps" had exceeded two hundred, and it was still slowly climbing, but there were only more than ten competitors left at this time.

"Aggressive!" was watching the excitement in Baiya and the evening sunshine, but the door of the box sounded a long and three short rhythmic knocks.

"Childe, this is a signal from the venue manager to contact the distinguished guests in the box, but do you want me to take a look?" Wanqing suddenly frowned and asked cautiously.

"Hmm!" Bai Ya nodded, vaguely feeling that the person who came should be related to the "First-line Silicon Step" that was being auctioned below.

"Childe, this is a barter request from other VIPs, and the steward has written down the transaction they are willing to give, and if the transaction between the two parties is successful, then the transaction commission will also be paid by the other party. Wanqing said, handing a list to White Cliff.

"Two hundred jade coins, one sea shell pearl (estimated at seventy jade coins), VIP ...... in box 12"

"Three taels of hyacinths (estimated at 90 jade dollars), one hundred-year-old snow lotus (unestimable), VIP ...... in box 47"

"Twelve Yunnan slave girls (estimated at one hundred jade dollars), two taels of Zhuo dragon bone powder (unestimable), VIP ...... in box 308"

Bai Ya took a cursory look and found that there were more than 20 VIPs on the list who had traded privately, and the trading items provided were also varied. Some of these venues have already been appraised, while others have been valuated because they are volatile or rare, so they are not appraised.

These people estimated that they didn't have enough jade money, so they privately found the venue manager. It's a pity that the things that Baiya needs can be easily obtained from Qingcheng, or they are not available on the market at all.

This list was purely for the blind man to see, and he almost only glanced at it, and returned it to Wanqing like a waste of paper, waving his hand in a smile.

"As long as you have jade money, if those VIPs want cheats, let them use these mortgages with the venue before bidding, right?"

"Yes, Childe!" Wanqing immediately stood up, pushed open the door and returned the list to the steward outside the door, and shook her head at him slightly.

The steward hesitated for a moment, and then bit his ear with Wanqing in a low voice, and the costume beauty suddenly had a trace of embarrassment on her face, and only nodded slowly after a while.

"Childe, the steward just said that the guest of honor in box 308 is the current sixth son, Chunlingjun, and asked Childe if he would like to befriend him?" Wanqing said softly with her eyelids lowered.

The venue manager shouldn't have said this, but it is estimated that he received the benefits of Chunlingjun, so he tried to be a lobbyist.

"Oh, what do you think?" White Cliff turned his head to look at her and asked indifferently.

"Childe thinks it's inappropriate, just reply to him!" Wanqing gritted her teeth, vaguely feeling that Bai Ya was already a little dissatisfied, and immediately said decisively.

"Well, let's go!" Bai Ya smiled, and his gaze turned back to the auction room.
