ps: This chapter has a lot of content and it took me a long time to think about it, so I’m sorry.
As a way of buying and selling that has existed since ancient times, the characteristics of auctions are well known. To sum it up in one sentence, the highest bidder gets it. In a little more detail, it means that all customers are given the opportunity to obtain the maximum benefit from the product.
A chance to compete on an equal footing.
Compared with other buying and selling methods, auctions are relatively fair, but not necessarily so.
Deliberately raising the price is probably the most common malicious bidding method in auctions. To put it bluntly, it means that the price is increased without the purpose of purchasing the item, so that the final buyer has to buy it at a higher price than the original price.
Commodity, to put it simply, is an act that harms others without benefiting oneself.
In the eyes of most of the players around him, there is no doubt that Ye Shang's behavior was exactly that.
It is normal to understand this. After all, every time Ye Shang increased the price before, he did not hesitate, but suddenly gave up when the price rose to an astonishing 150,000 gold coins. In addition to deliberately raising the price, other people present were unexpected.
Players really can't find a more appropriate explanation.
In addition, the opponent, that is, the archer player's words and deeds are too arrogant and arrogant, which can easily offend others. It becomes more reasonable that Ye Shang would deliberately raise the price.
But it is one thing to understand that Ye Shang deliberately raised the price, and another thing to think about it.
It is true that deliberately raising prices in auctions is despised. However, given that Archer players have set a precedent for public outrage, Ye Shang's behavior actually made most of the players present feel happy, and some even secretly admired him in their hearts.
stand up--
I’ve seen a lot of people who intentionally raise prices, but I’ve never seen one that can quadruple the price in ten seconds!
If he couldn't accurately grasp the opponent's psychology, how could Ye Shang make the archer player easily shout out the astonishing figure of "145,000 gold coins"? As long as you calm down and think about it, anyone who knows a little about the market will know this price.
It's already too high for a piece of diamond-level equipment.
It can be said that Ye Shang at least cost Archer players more than 100,000 gold coins!
However, what these players didn't expect was that Ye Shang was indeed raising the price on purpose, not because he couldn't stand the arrogant behavior of the archer players, but because he discovered some clues that no one had discovered, and thus speculated on a possibility.
There is something fishy hidden under this auction.
Yes, some people may have guessed that Ye Shang suspects that the Archer player is just a trap, a trap responsible for raising the price.
In fact, Ye Shang had doubts as early as the beginning. Players with extremely high equipment levels such as archers cannot have such an arrogant character. Otherwise, the equipment on his body would not exist to this day, even if there is some force protecting him.
, no matter how you say it, it’s hard to be complete.
Later, the behavior of the archer players when the auction officially started deepened Ye Shang's suspicion.
Don't forget, after bidding the starting price of 10,000 gold coins, the archer player stopped bidding again in a short period of time. For an arrogant player who wants to take a shot of the product, this is undoubtedly very baffling. He can
Directly offer a high price to make other players quit, while flaunting their strong position.
The next bidding between the archer player and the thief player was the same. Rather than wanting to buy the product, he was more like asking others to quickly offer a higher price to beat him. In addition, the warlock stall owner player
Ye Shang acted too calmly during the auction, as if he had long believed that the price would be high. Ye Shang had every reason to believe his guess.
If the above is still just speculation, then when Ye Shang officially joined the bidding and raised the price arbitrarily, the reaction of the archer players basically proved this conjecture. It is precisely because it was just a support and there was no intention to buy or sell.
Players who have no psychological price point will be easily led by others.
Of course, it also has something to do with the fact that the archer players are not given time to think. Otherwise, as soon as the other party discovers something is wrong, they will not increase the price, and it will be Ye Shang himself who suffers.
But because he was worried that archer players would suddenly wake up at some point, Ye Shang did not keep raising the price and chose to give up when he got 150,000 gold coins. What's more, no matter how high the price was, if it was really just a promise,
All of them have no meaning.
Ye Shang didn't think that the warlock stall owners would really ask the archer players to collect money. Even if they did, for them, it would just be a transfer of money from their left hand to their right hand.
The only ones on the field who could understand the true meaning of Ye Shang's smile were obviously the warlock stall owner and the archer player who were the parties involved, or the planners. After being stunned for a few seconds like other players, the former's eyes
With a solemn look in his eyes, the latter seemed slightly at a loss.
However, regardless of whether they understand it or not, or whether they are willing to do so, there is one thing that all warlock stall owners and players must do.
"One hundred and forty-five thousand gold coins once." While constantly looking at Ye Shang out of the corner of his eye, the warlock stall owner said. At the same time, he seemed to have opened his personal interface and was doing something, with a gloomy expression on his face.
It may prove the drastic change in his heart.
"One hundred and fifty-five thousand gold coins twice."
"One hundred and forty-five thousand gold coins three times."
"make a deal!"
Naturally, it is impossible for anyone to foolishly raise the price for a price that is three or four times more than the original price, up to 145,000 gold coins. As expected, after three formal confirmations by the warlock stall owner, the archer player finally accepted the price.
The auction was successful and the auction was over.
Now that the auction is over, the onlookers have no reason to continue watching. They discuss what happened in twos and threes and prepare to leave. Ye Shang is also there, but as soon as he turns around, he is suddenly stopped.
"Stop!" The one who stopped Ye Shang was the archer player who successfully took the diamond-level leather jacket. He did not immediately go to trade with the warlock stall owner, but ran three steps at a time.
He came over with an extremely angry expression on his face.
The archer player's voice was quite loud, attracting the attention of many nearby people. Seeing that he and Ye Shang were in contact again, many players stopped and started to watch again.
"What's the matter? You don't want to give it to me anymore, right?" Compared to the archer players, Ye Shang seemed very calm, and said in a leisurely manner, and then glanced not far away as if nothing had happened.
He did not close the stall but was paying full attention to the warlock stall owner here.
"Did you raise the price on purpose just now? In fact, there wasn't much money in the backpack, right?!" Pointing at Ye Shang, the Archer player let out an angry voice that resounded in the ears of everyone present.
"Whether I have enough money in my backpack, I said, you will know when I take the photo, but it's a pity that you took the photo away. Why, are you still planning to verify it?" It was not affected by the emotions of the archer player, and it was still the same.
With Gu Jing's unwavering expression, Ye Shang smiled calmly and said.
"You must have said that because you have no money!" With an extremely determined tone, the angry archer player immediately showed a look of realization, and then pointed at the warlock stall owner ten yards away and said, "I understand.
You are the one he hired to defraud me of my money!"
Hearing what the archer player said, Ye Shang burst out laughing. He didn't expect that the thief would call him "catch the thief."
Unfortunately, other uninformed players did not know that they were shouting to catch the thief. When the archer player said this, some people actually believed that Ye Shang was the agent of the warlock stall owner. After all, Ye Shang was deliberately raising the price.
, if that diamond-level leather jacket is really sold for 145,000 gold coins, the warlock stall owner will also be the biggest beneficiary, resulting in a lot of discussion for a while.
"Is there nothing I can say?!" Probably wanting to convince other players that Ye Shang was indeed the one to blame, the archer player stepped up and said again.
"What do you want?" After looking around at the nearby players who were pointing and looking at them with different expressions, Ye Shang shrugged indifferently and asked. There is a saying that if you are upright, you are not afraid of slanted shadows. He really doesn't believe in archers.
What can players do to him, not to mention that the number of gold coins in his backpack far exceeds the asking price just now.
"Wait for me!" Upon receiving Ye Shang's answer, the archer player showed a smile of success on his lips, and hurriedly ran outside after saying a few words.
"Could it be..." Seeing the direction in which the archer player left, Ye Shang couldn't help but frown, because he had already guessed what the other party wanted to do. No wonder he had to point out his deliberate price increase and also accuse him of being a traitor.
The warlock stall owner was asked by the player.
Not to Ye Shang's surprise, more than ten seconds later, the archer player reappeared in everyone's sight, followed by two system guards.
Yes, the Archer players just want to use the system guards to cause trouble for Ye Shang. Although private auctions are not protected by the system, once something is sold, it is considered a transaction. If Ye Shang is really the warlock stall owner
The entrustment found by the players will constitute the crime of transaction fraud.
However, in order to be convicted, it must at least be proven that Ye Shang has contact with the warlock stall owner or player, or that he deliberately raised the price. The former is impossible, and the latter is even more impossible.
You must know that the system guards are not equal to the system, they just make more rational judgments based on the situation. It depends on whether Ye Shang is deliberately raising the price. Without on-site experience, they have to prove it through some side facts, such as calling
The price paid is much higher than the actual number of gold coins in the backpack.
The archer players must have decided that Ye Shang could not have much money before calling the system guards over, and he was doomed to suffer a tragedy.
However, what no one expected, including Ye Shang himself, was that just when the archer player pointed out the target to the two system guards, the moment they saw Ye Shang, these two were completely composed of "0" and
The character composed of "1" did not come over to check the number of gold coins in the backpack as usual. Instead, with a stern look in his eyes, he directly held onto the archer player who brought them.
"Bold civilians dare to make random slanders and lie about the facts!"
