Bookish Chapter 4: Jianghu situation at the auction(1/2)
In the subsequent auctions, such things happened less often. Several items were auctioned in succession and all were sold at satisfactory prices.
After another half hour, the auction was coming to an end. Including Zhang Yuanyi's auction item, there were only three items in the auction.
"The next item is ice silk gloves, of Xuan rank. They can cool down in the summer and warm your hands in the winter. They can withstand the attacks of ordinary blades. The starting price is ten Bixiao coins."
A pair of crystal-clear transparent gloves slowly rise up, with white mist swirling around them. They are indeed extremely beautiful gloves.
But the whole audience didn't seem to hear it. It's just a pair of gloves, so what's the big deal? No matter how good-looking or high-grade it is, it can only be used to defend against ordinary blade attacks. Could it be that in a life-and-death fight, you wear a pair of good-looking gloves to your opponent?
Will you show mercy?
The young man in brocade raised his eyebrows. He was not interested in what my mother was playing.
It's been a long time since anyone made an offer, which is quite rare.
"Ten Bixiao coins and one Qingxiao coin."
A hoarse voice sounded weakly in the hall.
After a while, the whole audience burst into laughter.
"There are actually such talents, I finally saw them!"
"Why don't you add a copper coin? You made me laugh to death."
"You sound pretty young by the sound of it. Are you thinking of giving it to an old lady in the next village?"
...
Everyone burst into laughter, they were really upset by this man.
At this time, this person was touching his nose, feeling embarrassed. It was Zhang Yuanyi.
Of course Zhang Yuanyi had no use for these ice silk gloves, but Su Su could use them.
Su Su has been cooking for Zhang Yuanyi, and sometimes it is inevitable that she will hurt her hands. In addition, the water is cold in winter, and it is very cold when washing things. This pair of gloves was just given to Su Su. Su Su will definitely like it.
He also wanted to add copper coins, but after asking, he couldn't, which made him extremely sad.
The maid standing outside the door looked embarrassed. When Zhang Yuan called her in and asked her the question, she didn't know what to say. It was eye-opening to meet such a poor master after so many years in the industry.
.
The woman on the stage dropped her hammer, "Deal!"
Without saying any more nonsense, it seems that I don’t even bother to say congratulations.
Sure enough, being poor is a sin!
After the transaction was completed, the entire audience began to hold their breath, and the atmosphere lost its previous playfulness and became extremely serious. There was a calm atmosphere in the air, which made people breathless.
Most of them came here for this thing. The previous auction items were just trivial things, but this thing is destined to cause a bloody storm!
"Next up for auction is the Heavenly Saint Feather Clothes! An earth-level, defensive weapon that can withstand a full blow from Huiyang Realm monks. The starting price is five Zixiao coins!"
"Ten!"
As soon as she finished speaking, someone couldn't wait to make a bid, which was five Zixiao coins plus more. It was a shock to people's brains!
"Fifteen!" an old man who sounded a bit older said.
"Thirty!" said a man in black robe with a loud voice.
It suddenly rose to fifteen pieces, and everyone was shocked, but some people still added it up little by little.
"thirty-one!"
"Thirty-two!"
"Forty!" The man in black robe continued to increase the price, which was shocking!
There are no more lucky people coming to join in the fun.
Nong Xiuping stretched his body and said casually: "Well, I finally cleaned up all the salted fish. Now let's start the real bidding."
He said slowly: "Forty-five!"
The older man followed closely, "Fifty!"
The man in black robe continued: "Fifty-five!"
"Fifty-six!"
"fifty seven!"
"sixty-five!"
...
The scene seemed to have become a battlefield for the three of them, and it was extremely fierce.
Zhang Yuanyi had gone from being shocked at the beginning to getting used to it later. It seemed that they were not talking about Zixiao coins but ordinary copper coins. They were just reporting numbers and it was no big deal.
"Seventy-five!" When the older man told the price, he said to the other two people, "Brothers, let's make friends when we go out. Elder Dingchanjiao, I came here just to buy something.
A useful spiritual weapon is given to my disciple who has just broken the mirror. You two should treat it as a favor to the old man."
"Dingchan Corner! The first sect of Beiyue Dingchan Corner!" Someone exclaimed, "Good guy, I can't even imagine it!"
"Although Dingchanjiao is the No. 1 sect in Beiyue, it's just good at fighting. It's not necessarily as good as the farmers when it comes to money."
However, the monks in Dingchan Corner are notoriously poor. They spend all their time cultivating their minds and practice. They have no way of making money. They earn money by killing demons in surrounding areas and helping the Xuanling army fight a few battles.
A little money is very pitiful.
However, the monk in Dingzen Corner was never ambiguous when it came to fighting, which was basically as famous as his poverty.
They are not afraid of death and dare to risk their lives. In addition, every monk has to go to the battlefield from time to time, and everyone is full of blood!
That’s why some people jokingly call Dingzen Corner “a man with mud legs who is fierce in fighting!”
Then it depends on whether the other party gives face.
Nong Xiuping didn't say anything, but the man in white next to him said: "We are all from Beidi County, so our farm family will not be loved by others. Please, old gentleman!"
The old man smiled heartily and said, "When I am old, I will definitely come to my door in person to say thank you."
The man in white smiled softly, that's how the so-called friendship in the world came about, and so were the connections.
Just when everyone thought that Yuyi was about to fall into the old man's hands, the man in black robe actually quoted again: "Eighty-five!"
Not only did he not sell off the old man's face, but he was suddenly too high-spirited. He did not take the old man seriously at all. The man in black robe said with a disdain: "The treasures of heaven and earth can be obtained by those who are capable. At the auction, the one with the highest price will get it."
Where did all this mess come from?”
The old man's heart was filled with worry. He really had no money. He suppressed his anger and said, "My little friend is right, but I was being rude."
But the man in white couldn't stand it anymore and said: "You are so rude, you don't have any sense of justice! Don't worry, old man. I brought a hundred Zixiao coins when I went out this time, and I will definitely help you.
in the end."
After saying that, he shouted loudly, "One hundred!"
“Farmers are really loyal!”
“I don’t know where this guy came from, but he is so rude!”
"Northland County unites and drives away this disrespectful person!"
...
The behavior of the man in white has obviously been praised by everyone, and the response has been quite good!
The man in black robe hummed lightly, not caring at all, "One hundred and ten!"
This immediately set the scene on fire!
"Don't go too far, you guy!"
"You have to be merciful and merciful. My little friend, it's better to practice some moral principles when you are away from home!"
"There's no place for you to act wild here!"
...
The man in black robe cursed softly: "A bunch of rabble! They don't know how high the sky is."
Nong Xiuping was about to stand up to bid, but the man in white held him down and shook his head.
He just said that he only had
There are a hundred coins, but actually, he has a lot of money with him. He did this deliberately, just to gain fame and connections in the world. If he continues to bid, he will lose more than he gains.
Although it may not be as meaningful as delivering the things to Dingchan Corner in person, the effect he expected has been achieved.
He said in his heart: "Just watch and learn, don't act rashly!"
Children are still too young, prone to impulsiveness, and completely unable to understand the ways inside.
The man in black robe said loudly again: "Girl, if no one comes to bid, let's make a decision!"
"One hundred and fifty!"
At this moment, a voice sounded, directly raising the price by a full forty pieces, which was simply terrifying!
