After learning Miao Dao with Luo Hongyun for nearly an hour, Xia Xu stopped after barely learning a simple routine.
He didn't forget that he was going to participate in the auction of retired police dogs today.
Fighting with cold weapons is better than nothing. If you really want to strengthen your self-protection ability, it would be simpler and faster to 'summon objects'.
However, the auction started at 9:30 and lasted until 11:30, so there was no need to hurry. The reason why I got up so early was purely due to excitement and getting used to morning exercises with Luo Hongyun.
After taking a shower and having breakfast at a roadside stall, Xia Xu calmly caught a taxi and arrived at a police dog training base in Star City according to the address given by Luo Hongyun in a short time.
It's half past nine, the time is just right.
"So this is an auction..."
Luo Hongyun had already arranged a guarantee for Xia Xu, so after arriving at the place, Xia Xu entered the venue smoothly.
Just seeing the so-called auction site, he was a little helpless to complain.
There was a wide open space in the training base in the wilderness, and a stage was set up in front of it, which seemed to be used as a speech sign.
As for the auction participants, their seats were even worse. There were rows of small red plastic square stools on the lawn of bare yellow mud mixed with sparse weeds.
This bleak scene successfully broke all Xia Xu's beautiful illusions about the 'auction'.
There were not many people participating in the auction, which is why Luo Hongyun said before that he was lucky. This was the first time he had tried this kind of auction of culling dogs. He just made a simple announcement, so not many people knew about it.
After entering the venue, Xia Xu found a seat and sat down, and then got a list of the eliminated dogs in this auction. It briefly mentioned the coat color and the reasons for elimination. Most of them were small, weak, low in excitability, and had a desire to pick up.
Low or something like that.
"No. 1, springer spaniel, female, eliminated because of timidity..."
After a while, the people from the training base stepped onto the auction stage and started the official auction.
Maybe it was because I was inexperienced and didn't do it very formally. I just took out the eliminated dogs and introduced their characteristics one by one.
"I wonder if I can check the attributes of animals..."
When the auction started, Xia Xu felt a little bit pained. The auction was so rushed and he didn't make any preparations. He didn't know how to pick a dog.
Fortunately, he still has the ability to view the properties panel.
People can see it, and even werewolves can see it, but wolves can't see it, right?
Wanting to try it out, Xia Xu threw a detection technique at the retired police dog on the stage.
【Name】:Abu
【Life Level】:1
[Fate potential]: Pet (1 star)
[Talent Potential]: Guide (2 stars)
【Special】: None
【Obsession】: None
【Favorability】:40
An attribute panel that looks exactly like a human pops up.
"Sure enough."
Xia Xu smiled.
Since he can also check dogs, it seems that his ability can work on all creatures. In this way, he can not only select talents, but this time he can also select the best "dog talents".
I looked at the properties panel again, and it seemed there was no difference from the human one.
No, there is still a little difference.
Theoretically, he could not even be considered a stranger when viewed from a distance, but the springer spaniel on stage had a favorable impression of him of forty points.
"Innate favorability bonus?"
Xia Xu was a little surprised, but thinking about it, it seemed reasonable.
Many dogs, especially today's pet dogs, are rarely hostile to humans unless they have been abused. Many species are docile and family friendly.
"Four hundred!"
"four thousand!"
"Ten thousand!"
"fifty thousand!"
While Xia Xu was checking the properties, people around him started bidding. Although there were not many people, the response was very enthusiastic.
The prices were also a bit outrageous. The starting price was only two hundred yuan, but it instantly jumped to tens of thousands. It seemed that everyone who came was not short of money.
Of course, these eliminated dogs are worth the price. They are trained by professional police dogs. They were eliminated only because they were timid. This may be a flaw for police dogs, but it is an advantage when used as pet dogs.
"Little brother... do you know how to read dogs?"
A bald middle-aged man next to Xia Xu suddenly talked to Xia Xu.
"Why do you ask?"
Xia Xu was watching other people competing with the intention of watching a good show, when he suddenly heard the person he was chatting up with ask this question, and was surprised.
"Haha, I have been running a business outside for decades. Although I don't know how to pick a dog, I am very good at looking at people."
The bald middle-aged man smiled kindly and said: "This is my first dog. Look at other people, even those who are not very interested will make an offer first to join in the fun. Little brother, you are the only one who didn't make an offer. Look at your expression.
Looks a little disapproving."
"sharp."
Xia Xu gave him a thumbs up.
"So it seems I guessed it right?"
The bald middle-aged man showed some joy: "Can you please help me, little brother? My daughter has some vision problems, so she needs a guide dog. I thought if it is a trained police dog, it can protect her, so
I got the news today and took the time to come here."
As he spoke, he laughed dryly: "But you see... I don't understand anything. This auction didn't say what these dogs are suitable for. I'm sitting here completely confused."
"So you want me to help you choose?"
Xia Xu Yile: "What if I don't understand and start bragging?"
"I believe in you, little brother."
The bald middle-aged man said and coughed twice: "Actually, I believe in my own vision."
"Okay, let's take a picture of this one."
Xia Xu showed a casual and joking expression.
"Ah? Just this one?"
The bald middle-aged man was also stunned for a moment.
Xia Xu smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's just this one. If you believe it, buy it. If you don't believe it, forget it."
"Okay, I'll buy it."
After hearing this, the bald middle-aged man was also very happy, or he didn't need the tens of thousands of yuan to join the bidding army directly.
Finally, the first eliminated dog was successfully acquired by the bald middle-aged man next to Xia Xu.
Then the rest of the dogs came on stage for auction one after another, and the transaction prices skyrocketed step by step, each one higher than the last.
Seeing that the price of the seventh one had exceeded 150,000, Xia Xu finally couldn't sit still.
This is just a retired police dog, not a real police dog, and it does not have the blood of any precious breed.
The professionally trained gimmick might be valuable, but he originally thought it would fetch a hundred thousand dollars, but he never expected that the bidding would be so crazy.
He doesn't have much money in his pocket right now. He can only spend 200,000 yuan at most. If he continues to wait and see, he might come back empty-handed this time.
[Name]: Brother Hei
【Life Level】:1

[Talent Potential]: Fighting (3 stars)
【Special】: None
【Obsession】: None
【Favorability】:30
Just in time, a new dog was brought up at this time. After seeing Samsung's fighting talent, Xia Xu no longer hesitated and started bidding directly.
