Price increases and snap bids are normal auction forms. The former provides a lower base price that continues to increase and is awarded to the highest bidder. The bidding process will stimulate people to impulsively raise prices. Snap bids create demand, in order to prevent themselves from bidding.
If the product is sold for less than a reasonable price first, neither party will suffer a loss.
But the auction format used for the final experimental model medicine was a higher price of 15 Lindsays at the beginning, but then the auctioneer kept bidding lower. The principle is similar to that of snap bidding. Why is the bidding like this? In a wait-and-see state
People may think that they can give it a try because the price has dropped. There will always be people who think that the price is close to the public's overdue price and buy it in advance. Sometimes it is more uncomfortable for others to make a profit than to lose oneself.
There were quite a few trial models of medicine, a total of twenty bottles, and each person was limited to purchasing one bottle. Perhaps other wealthy businessmen and agents had questions about safety, or there was no corresponding demand. The first bottle was sold out instantly.
The last two bottles were also sold at a price higher than ten linseys, and the rest were sold at prices below one linsey. And Alexander bought the last bottle when it dropped to forty paise.
, she considered that no matter how low her estimate was, it might be taken by other opportunistic adventurers. Even if she didn’t use this potion, if she didn’t get the healing captain’s magic item, using this would not be any worse in that case.
.Brandon didn’t understand why Alexander took the picture, but he didn’t say anything after thinking that it had already been taken.
The last exit was in order and through different exits, probably to protect personal information. Most people did not ask for a deposit for admission. The deposit for picking up medicine and the deposit was really a lot for Alexander and Brandon, so they left in two places.
After people left, there were not many people on the street.
Alexander had just told Brandon about the captain's physical condition, and then asked about the effectiveness of past life-extending potions, when commotion and battle cries came from the direction of the street office.
Brandon shook his head solemnly and ran towards the street office, and Alexander followed. When they arrived, they saw a guy dressed as an upper-class man in black waving his hand, and an ice blade formed in the air.
He flew out and slashed a man in a shop who was talking quietly to An Gang, a squirrel wanderer. An Gang was so frightened that he sat down on the ground. In the previous battle, a businessman had already fallen on the ground.
Then the figure of the man in black blurred, and he actually teleported to the man's side, landing on the only empty space on the blood-covered ground. Then he squatted down gracefully, and took out a red handful from the man's pocket.
dagger.
That was one of the magic equipment at the previous auction. It can absorb a small amount of blood by self-inflicted damage, and then hold the equipment for a short period of time that is not easily affected by spell effects or reduces the effect.
Alexander stretched his hands behind his back and looked quietly at how many people were nearby who seemed to be in the same group as the man in black. But there were only Squirrel wanderers, Silver City soldiers and merchant clerks in hiding nearby.
, it seems that the man in black came alone, and all the people nearby who could run away ran away.
"Go and notify Mr. Bryan." After hearing Brandon's words, a soldier ran to the office to notify Davis. Bryan Brandon suddenly raised his sword and pointed it at the guy, and saw the man in black groping again.
He took out a test model of a bottle of physical enhancement potion and stuffed it into his arms. Then he disappeared in an instant under the noses of the two people, but no bright magic light effect appeared.
"Damn it, he actually committed an attack openly. He is very strong." Brandon stabbed the sword on the ground and ran to check on the injured person.
"...I can't see him either." Alexander still took off his bow: "I don't know if it's invisibility or teleportation."
Fortunately, the four people who fell just fainted. Then the Squirrel Wanderer who was in the dark came out to maintain order and contact Yincheng. The two of them also hurried to the street office.
At this time, Davis Bryan had already gone downstairs with a sword, and he breathed a sigh of relief after knowing that there was no dead person. After he finished handling the affairs, Brandon and Alexander also followed him to the street office again.
"This place is getting more and more chaotic. You should leave as soon as possible." Davis Bryan sighed and stood behind the desk. Alexander hesitated and told him the informant information he learned from Iri.
.
"Vampires and cultists...priests of evil gods?" Davis's eyes widened. An invisible majestic force hit the entire office from his body. The chairs, tables, and potted plants were all displaced or even broken. Only one of them had been reviewed.
The completed document bag was not pushed and fell quietly to the ground.
"This..." Alexander looked at the bag and felt that Davis had not lost his mind yet. "Uh... what, please calm down."
Brandon shrank subconsciously, and Davis suppressed his emotions and continued: "I will never compromise with any vampire. Don't worry about this matter, I will do it. As for if you decide to give the information in advance
Countercurrent Chamber of Commerce, it has nothing to do with you whether they do things that violate the laws of the empire. You write down what you want to say, and I will negotiate on your behalf."
Alexander sighed and began to sit down and write about the rainforest and the pioneering team, and mentioned the unclean creatures in the rainforest, the ruins of the temple, and the detailed appearance of the spellcaster. In addition, Bishop Ronan’s previous judgment said that in
The architectural style I saw in my memory confirmed that the spell caster was the owner of the temple.
Alexander asked Brandon while writing. "By the way, I seem to have seen a emblem at the auction of the Countercurrent Chamber of Commerce. It was a grapevine pattern with red gold leaves. Our pioneer team pass book also had ivory powder and
Grapevine pattern decorated with silver inlays, do you know anything about this?"
"Grapevines represent unobstructed access." Davis Bryan answered this question on behalf of Brandon, then collected the letter and waved his hand. "Come back to me tomorrow morning." Brandon pulled Alexander.
, planning to pull her out together.
"Okay...but I think those vampires who came here to take risks may want the life-extending medicine. I think they may do anything for their own purposes. If you are stopped by them on the road, for the sake of the residents of this town,
Considering their own safety, I don’t mind giving this medicine to them in exchange for them working together to deal with that evil priest.”
Davis Bryan glanced at Alexander gloomily and said nothing. This was the first time she had seen the Oathbinder show his negative emotions like this.
"Just pretend she didn't say anything." Alexander was pulled out by Brandon.
"Oh, it seems like it's messed up." Alexander walked downstairs and sighed.
"Why did you say it directly?" Brandon patted his chest, seemingly frightened.
"For the sake of the innocent residents here, there is nothing that cannot be said. I firmly believe in this." Alexander felt that there should be no big problem with his considerations so far. It is just that the Countercurrent Chamber of Commerce is a bit of a gamble, and one has to be careful to see whether the person is accurate.
Before the words were picked up by Brandon, Alexander suddenly realized that Richard, the owner of the carriage shop, might be in an awkward position in the Countercurrent Chamber of Commerce. Obviously, it is almost impossible for a large organization to be monolithic, so if Davis.
Who else is Ryan going to give the letter to?
Richard may have shown a friendly attitude before, but the auction is probably not in charge of Richard. Such a large amount of business is unlikely to be accessible to Richard in his capacity, and it is estimated that it can only serve as a connection
function.
Alexander spent a short time thinking about the impact of this incident, and hurriedly said to Brandon: "Um, wait for me here." Then she turned and went upstairs, knocked on the door gently, and planned to go in.
Davis Bryan didn't respond, but a strong gust of wind opened the door. The wind blowing out of the house obviously allowed Alexander to enter... Alexander didn't know what supernatural abilities the Oathbenders could use. Maybe it was just personal.
Ability is not brought about by this extraordinary profession. It is best to ask Brandon if you have the opportunity in the future.
Thinking of this, Alexander poked her head in and saw Davis Brian taking out a bottle of ink from the cabinet. Then she said tentatively: "Um, um, I'm sorry. I just remembered that it was the car we had with the Countercurrent Chamber of Commerce.
Richard, the owner of the horse store, has almost agreed to pay a return visit. How about we negotiate on our own? We think that person is quite reliable. I promise that I will not make decisions with them without your agreement.
Is it okay to trade between people?”
"If you go like this, I'm afraid you might have been marked by a vampire and eventually sucked dry." Davis Brian snorted coldly and continued: "The memory retrieval spell is the specialty of these heretics." He stretched out his hand to help him up.
The chair that had fallen to the ground sat down again in front of the table, and then he started writing a letter...mostly to the Sun Chaser headquarters.
"A spell to extract memories?" Alexander remembered that Bishop Ronan seemed to know this spell before: "This spell... is it only known to vampires?"
"The name of this spell is Memory Modification, and it is a fifth-level spell. High-level vampires are just born with the ability to use this kind of spell-like ability." Davis Bryan finished writing and put away the pen.
"That is to say, as long as it is a high-level spell caster, it will be a mage or a priest." Alexander nodded and continued: "Well, in short, we will not go to the vampire rashly, then we will go to the carriage shop ourselves.
Negotiate with Richard?"
"I don't know the specifics, at least the Oathbinders don't know it... Do you think there won't be vampire spies at the door?" Davis Bryan sighed and said, "This is the town of Dole.
, not somewhere else.”
"Well, that's it." Alexander felt very embarrassed: "What should we do?"
"If you have anything to say, I'll pass it on to him. Anyway, I can go there on official business without being suspected."
"Well, it's basically what I just wrote. Just leave it to him." Alexander scratched his head and thought about it. There shouldn't be anything he forgot, right?
Davis Bryan stared at Alexander for a few more seconds before slowly saying: "If you can trust him, then I will leave it to him."
"It's all your fault." Alexander shook his head, slipped out and closed the door.
"How's it going?" Brandon looked over at Alexander as soon as he went out, and I asked when she came downstairs.
"Huh? What are you asking? Anyway, we didn't talk about anything important. We just wanted to make it clear how to negotiate with the people from the Countercurrent Chamber of Commerce." Alexander shook his head and said, "Let's go to the hotel and wait to meet up? Maybe the three of them have already
came back."
Brandon glanced at the office worriedly, nodded and left with Alexander. However, an accident happened as soon as they reached the square.
Not far away, an adventurer with faintly glowing red eyes roared and chopped down a small vendor who had not yet propped up a stall in front of him. Although it was difficult to hear clearly from a distance, they were still talking before.
The price offered by the adventurer was too low and the vendor did not sell it to him. The vendor was now lying on the ground with more air in and less air out.
While Alexander quickly reached for the bow and took it out, he glanced around to see if there were any hidden spellcasters and cursed: "Damn it, who is shooting cold arrows." Brandon took out his sword and rushed forward to prevent the adventurer from finishing the attack.
.
Alexander quickly looked around and found no trace of the spell caster. "Brandon, be careful, this person may have been affected by some spell. Knock him out first and see if he can save the person on the ground."
This coincided with Brandon's idea. He rushed forward and hit the crazed adventurer hard in the stomach with the back of his sword. It did not cause serious damage, but the impact was still very strong. At this time, there were two others.
The adventurer also helped hold down and knock out the crazy adventurer.
Alexander quickly stepped forward to see if the vendor on the ground could be saved. She was not a doctor, but she could tell that the vendor was about to die, but he could save his life with a healing potion.
Without thinking much, Alexander poured the long-cherished healing potion into the vendor's mouth. The bleeding from the exaggerated wound from his left shoulder to his neck slowed down a little. Another adventurer took out a bandage and quickly bandaged it. Brandon thought it was impossible
Move him and run to find Helena.
Alexander grabbed the bow lying on the ground and stood close to the vendor to avoid being sapped accidentally. At the same time, he was also alert to see if there were any spellcasters around who wanted to repeat the same trick or if anyone wanted to kill the vendor.
Two enthusiastic adventurers who are very rare in Durr Town - well, maybe they are adventurers who want to create new characters and make friends with merchants in order to gain access to the city. In short, these two people waited with Alexander for a quarter of an hour.
"It's been so chaotic lately," one of them said.
Another one immediately replied: "Yes, yes."
Alexander did not join their conversation. A quarter of an hour later, Brandon came over with a panting Helena.
Helena healed the big wound after using several healing magics in succession. After a short while, she tiredly said to the merchant who had just woken up: "There is too much bleeding, and I need to recover for a while." The merchant.
He touched the wound and quickly thanked the four saviors.
"We were having a good conversation just now." The merchant glanced at the crazy adventurer who was tied up by the enthusiastic adventurer and said with lingering fear: "In the end, his eyes looked fierce." After Helena's treatment, the two adventurers also left.
, maybe they were adventurers invited by the Countercurrent Chamber of Commerce to stabilize the auction. Anyway, Alexander didn't know any other old adventurers from Dole Town.
"Well... if it's not a disease, it's someone who used magic to plot against it." Alexander scratched his head and said to the priest, "No one is stupid enough to kill people on the street. Miss Helena, look
?”
Helena shook her head, not knowing what she wanted to express. Alexander estimated that she had also treated those who were tempted to attack the city gate before.
"Thank you both so much, I can't stop this business. I'm going back to the city, and this stall of things should be considered as my small way of repaying your kindness." The merchant stood up and said to Alexander and Helena,
Then he chased after the two enthusiastic adventurers walking towards the city gate.
"What?" Alexander looked at the stall dumbfounded.
"I'll take you back. Alexander, just wait for me at the hotel." After Brandon saw that the vendor was indeed okay, he wanted to escort Helena back.
There are some potions and a few pieces of equipment on this carpet. Considering that a lot of budget was spent in the auction before, it can now make up for some of the gaps. This chapter has been completed!
