Increasing the bidding deposit can indeed passively prevent some practitioners from participating in the auction.
However, this still raises the threshold and conditions for participating in the auction. Those practitioners who come from afar will still scold them. Moreover, this super auction organized by Feiming Chamber of Commerce is not just for the auction of Jing Yan.
The Emperor provided the Immortal Nirvana Pill, as well as a large number of various other treasures. The Feiming Chamber of Commerce naturally hopes that all the items in the auction can be successfully bid, and preferably at a higher price.
If many potential customers are turned away by increasing the bidding deposit, this will undoubtedly be a huge loss for Feiming Chamber of Commerce.
"President."
"There are not many people who can bid for the Immortal Nirvana Pill. Most Immortal Emperors do not have that kind of financial resources. Therefore, you might as well divide the auction into two and have a special auction for the Immortal Nirvana Pill.
The bidding deposit has been greatly increased, and how much deposit is charged for a normal auction, you can consider it through statistics." Jing Yan saw President Fei Ming frown and knew what he was thinking, so he smiled and said.
President Fei Ming's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard Jing Yan's last words.
This is indeed the best way at the moment.
Some of the practitioners who came to participate in the Feiming Chamber of Commerce's super auction came specifically for the Immortal Nirvana Pill. They may not be very interested in other treasures. In this way, the auction is divided into two.
Setting up a special auction for the Immortal Pill can divert the bidders.
The specific method of operation still needs to be considered, but this method is indeed feasible.
"What Emperor Jing Yan said is absolutely true. This method is worth trying." President Fei Ming bowed his hand to Jing Yan: "Then don't bother me. I'll go back and prepare now."
…
Jiao Yuan Hunyuan, Headquarters of Xiliang Chamber of Commerce.
President Xiliang, his face became more serious as he listened to the information reported by the people below.
Although many methods have been tried, there are still very few big shots coming to participate in the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce Super Auction. At this time, the Xiliang President already felt a little regretful.
Of course, he did not regret offending Emperor Jing Yan, but he regretted deciding to hold the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce's auction at the same time as the Feiming Chamber of Commerce. If the dates were staggered, it would not be as embarrassing as it is now.
In the main hall, many senior officials of the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce, after reporting relevant information, quietly waited for the president to come up with a solution.
Otherwise, when the auction officially starts tomorrow, there will be only a few bidders in the venue, and it will be really over. The failure of the auction is not the most serious thing. The most serious thing is the damage to reputation, and the invisible losses will be
Let the reputation of Xiliang Chamber of Commerce's No. 1 Chamber of Commerce be shaken.
Another point is that a large part of the items at the auction do not belong to the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce, but the auction rights obtained by the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce from the owners of the treasures. If the treasures cannot be auctioned or cannot be sold,
If the price satisfies them, then they may not hand over the treasure to the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce for auction next time.
"Lower the bidding standards!" President Xiliang said after thinking for a long time.
No matter what, this auction must not be left deserted. No matter what, the venue must be filled with practitioners, even if these people cannot afford the auction items.
"President, even if we lower the standards for participating in the auction, I'm afraid we won't be able to solve this problem."
"According to the information we have now, the number of practitioners participating in the auction tomorrow is only one-tenth of the number of seats in the venue. Therefore, even if we lower the standard, we can allow more ordinary immortal emperors to participate in the auction, and because the time is short
, I’m afraid that in the end it will be difficult to fill the venue with three-tenths of the seats.” A senior official said to the Xiliang President.
"Give me the Immortal Stone!"
"As long as you are a cultivator at the Immortal Emperor level who participates in our Xiliang Chamber of Commerce auction, you can get... get a thousand immortal stones!" Xiliang Guild President bit into it and said.
One person has one thousand immortal stones, and ten thousand people have ten million immortal stones.
The Thousand Immortal Stones have a certain appeal to those cultivators at the Immortal Emperor level, but this attraction is probably not too great. There is one word to describe it, that is, it is useless. Of course, it is worthless.
Thousand Immortal Stones are indeed pretty good. Some Immortal Emperors who are not far from the main branch of Xiliang Chamber of Commerce holding auctions may also make a special trip here.
However, giving away tens of millions of immortal stones in this way is also a very painful thing for the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce. It is easy to give away ten million immortal stones, but it is not easy to earn them back. Under normal circumstances, Xiliang Chamber of Commerce will earn one point per cent.
The department's annual net profit may only be a few hundred thousand immortal stones.
The sales volume of the Chamber of Commerce seems to be very amazing, but the profit margin is actually not high. After excluding a large amount of labor and other costs, the profits of the Chamber of Commerce are really not as dazzling as outsiders imagine.
After many senior members of the Chamber of Commerce left, the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce headquarters welcomed another group of people.
These people are basically the major shareholders of the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce. They include high-level officials of the empire, Emperor Hunyuan who is a casual cultivator, and representatives of some big families. Naturally, they are not here to drink tea with the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce.
"President, we believe that you made a wrong decision by offending Emperor Jing Yan.
"President Xiliang, judging from the current situation, the auction held by the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce has failed. Is there anything you can do to remedy it?"
"The news came from Jing Yan Hunyuan that a large number of big shots participated in the Feiming Chamber of Commerce's auction. The Feiming Chamber of Commerce even started to have a headache on how to raise the threshold for participating in the auction. What a happy headache."
"And all of this started because you, President Xiliang, offended Emperor Jing Yan."
"President Xiliang, now I have begun to imagine that Feiming Chamber of Commerce may replace Xiliang Chamber of Commerce and become the number one chamber of commerce in the alliance."
This group of major shareholders of the Xiliang Chamber of Commerce are usually quite polite to the president, but when the president of Xiliang personally makes a decision that harms their interests, their faces are not so good.
They don't care if President Xiliang offends someone or something. As long as President Xiliang can help them earn immortal stones, then everything is fine. But the current situation is obviously wrong.
Looking at this group of unusually large shareholders, Chairman Xiliang's forehead was covered with black lines.
"The auction hasn't started yet, what are you in a hurry for?" President Xiliang's deep voice was almost a roar.
"President Xiliang, we must know whether we can continue to leave the management of the Chamber of Commerce completely in your hands. Before the end of this auction, we will stay here and wait for the final results of the auction to come out. Of course,
We are also waiting for the results of the auction held by Feiming Chamber of Commerce to come out." A representative from a big family said politely.
"It's up to you!" President Xiliang waved his hand.
