Chapter 395 The auction starts, all are required, good things?
"Haha, I can see that he is very disappointed."
About ten minutes later, the underground dwarf left the box and closed the door again. Fanny, who had been silent all this time, suddenly laughed.
"Maybe."
Moriarty just nodded noncommittally, closed his eyes and sat back on the soft sofa chair.
"Are you really not going to put anything forward to participate in the auction here? I think this is a good opportunity. You can earn money and build your reputation in the 'Dark Neon Color'. It's like killing two birds with one stone."
Seemingly unwilling to be "reduced" to a mere spectator and buyer, Medusa suddenly took the initiative to persuade her.
"I don't need any fame. And I don't think you need it either, right?"
Moriarty looked at Medusa strangely, but the latter was stunned and then fell silent.
After all, as an exile, Fanny needs to remain secretive more than the dark elves. And when she thought of this, Medusa really blushed at her stupid suggestion.
About half an hour later, the auction officially started.
At this time, the hall of the merchant house was already filled with merchants from all over the country and the local natives of the city, filling the originally spacious space to the brim.
"Welcome! Welcome all distinguished guests to this auction! On behalf of the organizers, I would like to thank you all for your visit."
The old underground dwarf who had come to the box to "persuade" was now standing in the center of the auction stage, still smiling, and loudly shouted to the people of all races present. But for the welcome speech of the dwarf,
The response from the audience was mediocre. It seemed that no one cared whether the organizer was grateful or not.
Seeing this, the underground dwarf cleverly put away the long lines he had prepared and went directly to the formal auction.
"Because the items for this auction are all 'goods' that have just been collected at the scene, so no one can know it in advance. I hope it can give you a surprise." Without any more nonsense, the underground dwarf looked around for a week and said directly: "
First of all, the first auction item is 50 kilograms of 'Adamantine Gravel' from the 'Kate Caravan'. After professional appraisal, the purity of this batch of gravel has reached about 30%. In other words, a total of about 60 kilograms can be extracted.
The fine gold belongs to high-grade raw ore. Let’s start bidding now, with every ten kilograms as a unit, and the base price is five thousand gold lang per unit. Please bid!”
Just when the dwarf auctioneer finished speaking, a plate of samples of fine gold sand was delivered to the stage at the same time. Under the illumination of the concentrated lights, the shimmering fine sand could not help but give off an attractive golden light.
The fine particles are as light as wind dust, as if they can be blown away with just one breath.
"Five thousand gold lang. I want three units."
"Five thousand one hundred gold coins, ten units."
"Five thousand five hundred gold coins, twenty units."
Seeing that the goods were really outstanding, immediately, the interested buyers in the audience began to bid. Of course, the bids ranged from high to low, and the purchase quantities varied from large to small. According to the rules of the auction, the price is based on the "highest price"
, "large quantity" and "early quotation" are used as the criteria for priority ordering.
In about five minutes, 200 kilograms of fine gold gravel were sold out, with a total price of 29,000 gold crowns, which was considered the first shot of this auction.
"Haha, I'm very happy that all the distinguished guests can participate so actively. And I have just been notified that in order to thank everyone for their hospitality, the organizers of our association have temporarily decided to waive the handling fee for the first lot, which is a benefit to all the distinguished guests!"
Seeing that the first lot was easily digested, the underground dwarf was also overjoyed and immediately announced it in public.
According to the rules, the organizer of the auction would have charged an extra point of handling fee for each transaction amount. Now the auctioneer directly declares a reduction or exemption, which is equivalent to a moderate discount.
, both buyers and sellers are satisfied.
"Okay, next, our second auction item is, three pieces each of 'Fragrance Agate' and 'Magnetic Jade' rough stones. The auction base price is one thousand gold lang per piece for 'Fragrance Agate' rough stone, and one thousand gold lang per piece for 'Magnetic Jade' rough stone."
One thousand two hundred gold coins. Please bid now."
"Oh, are they 'Fragrance Agate' and 'Magnetic Jade'?" After listening to the auctioneer's introduction, Medusa in the box suddenly stood up.
"Do you know what that is?"
Although he is familiar with various magic books and anecdotes, Moriarty is not as good as the natives of Negon. At least he does not know what the scented agate and magnetic jade are, and how they can attract Fanny's curious attention.
, then asked.
"Haha, there are times when a master of enchantment like you doesn't know?" Seeing the dark elf asking for advice, Medusa smiled arrogantly and then said: "But it's no wonder that scented agate and magnetic jade are both women's favorite things.
, you naturally won’t care. The fragrance agate is a rare raw jewelry mineral, mostly bright yellow, and the stone body is shiny and moist, neither warm nor cold. When worn on the body, it can moisturize the body and skin. In addition to its beautiful appearance,
Fragrance agate also has a natural noble fragrance, and the fragrance of each rough stone is different and never repeated. As for magnetic jade, it is another precious gemstone and one of the best materials for making jewelry.
, very popular with ladies."
While Fanny was introducing the two auction items in detail to Moriarty, people outside the box began to quote power.
"I want a piece of 'Fragrance Agate', and the price is eleven hundred gold coins."
"One piece each of 'Fragrance Agate' and 'Magnetic Jade', totaling two thousand five hundred gold."
"Two pieces of 'magnetic jade', I bid three thousand gold coins."
It seems that the underground world is not just a wilderness, but also has a huge consumer market for luxury goods. There is no doubt that all bidders want to buy these rough stones, then process them into exquisite and gorgeous jewelry accessories, and then sell them to various underground cities.
For sale by the superior.
"I want all three pieces of 'Fragrance Agate', six thousand gold coins."
Just as the dwarf auctioneer was nervously recording the bids in the audience, suddenly, a voice came from the box, and he actually rounded up three pieces of fragrant agate in one go. Moreover, his bidding was also quite fierce, bidding directly on the reserve price.
The 100% surplus seems to be an attempt to repel all other bidders in one fell swoop.
And this buyer is naturally Moriarty.
"Three pieces of 'Fragrance Agate', six thousand gold coins! Who else is following? Who else wants to make an offer?"
Having no time to pay attention to the magnetic jade business for the time being, the underground dwarf immediately "provoked" the other buyers around him. However, he received only a silence in response.
Firstly, the directly doubled quotation has exceeded the upper limit of most jewelry positions. Even if it really follows the trend and wins the auction, it will still be a huge cost pressure; secondly, this aggressive quotation comes from the box, where there are many
The position of a big shot is there, so no one wants to compete with such a being unless necessary.
"Okay! Three pieces of 'Fragrance Agate', six thousand gold coins! Deal!"
After teasing for a while, no one finally got an erection, so the auctioneer had no choice but to "let off" himself and loudly announced that Moriarty's bid was successful.
"Why did you buy so many fragrant agate rough stones? Do you also want to be a guest jewelry craftsman?"
After the servant carefully delivered the three rough stones into the box and the dark elf paid for the goods with gold nuggets, Medusa immediately asked with a strange look on her face.
“It’s not expensive anyway, so I bought it if I liked it.”
Naturally, Moriarty would not say that these fragrant agate rough stones were brought back to the surface as souvenirs from the "Nigong Tour" in the future and given to their lovers. As for the guest jewelry craftsmen, the human mage completed a set of "The Tenderness of the Bull Demon King"
"Care", if conditions permit, he might really be able to use the fragrant agate to make several new sets of magic jewelry sets.
"Not expensive? This is six thousand gold coins!"
Even though she was once the lord of a city, Fanny was still in charge of the family and knew that firewood and rice were expensive, so when she saw the dark elf's prodigal and willful behavior, she couldn't help but scream.
"Is it really expensive? Oh, it's a bit more expensive than the thousand gold coins that bought you. Don't worry about it." Seeing Medusa's claws and teeth, Moriarty suddenly felt funny and couldn't help teasing.
"You! Humph!"
After hearing such a metaphor, Fanny was naturally very unhappy, so she became angry and ignored the other person.
Next, the auction will continue.
Following the fine gold gravel, fragrant agate, and magnetic jade, various products such as extremely flavorful toadstools, large quantities of steel weapons, and the finest moss wine were put on the stage. They were also very popular and sought after by buyers from all over the world.
As the auction got better and better, enchanting props with "+1 attribute", rare alchemy potions, and even spell books recording complete magic were also put up for auction one by one.
Subsequently, the city's indigenous strength and those large caravans began to exert their strength, chasing these precious items that truly represented strength and strength.
However, Moriarty never said a word about this, so that Fanny, who was finally sulking beside her, couldn't help but coldly asked why the dark elves didn't take action to snatch these good things.
But are these really good things?
At least not in Moriarty's eyes.
Whether it's alchemy potions or magic props, those displayed on the auction stage are just average and low-grade in the eyes of alchemists. Even if they are given away for free, they may feel that they occupy space and are in the way.
As for the spell books, Moriarty was also very interested at first, wanting to take this opportunity to experience the magical civilization of the underground world. It was only after listening to the introduction of the dwarf auctioneer that he realized that the records in the two spell books were nothing more than this.
Moriarty has already learned the most common first-level elemental magics, so there is naturally no reference for them.
Therefore, Moriarty just laughed off Medusa's doubts without any explanation.
Finally, the auction reached its final climax.
There are still three final items that are about to be put on the stage. Regarding this, whether they have made great achievements before or have never made anything, they all cheer up again and sit upright.
Perhaps, the auction war is just about to begin now. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
