Chapter 194 Auction
"Please watch, this is an elite monster with the second-level strength. The Bullhead monster is also a very outstanding one among all the second-level elite monsters. Not only is it thick and thick in skin, but it is also extremely powerful. It can do some heavy work that humans cannot do. In addition, it also has two powerful skills: "War trampling" and "barbaric collision"..." Du Tao fully utilized his eloquence, carefully explained the characteristics and skill effects of the Bullhead monster, and explained the various uses in detail. After adding a lot of exaggerated descriptions, he said: "Do you want your city to be a golden soup? Two Bullhead monsters are placed in front of you. Such an opportunity is very rare. I hope everyone will not miss the opportunity. The low price is twenty superior soul gems, and the price is forty superior soul gems. The auction is below!"
The city lords, who were originally excited by Du Tao's words, immediately calmed down. Although the bullhead beast was powerful, it also had many uses, but the price was really not cheap after all, and even the city lords had to consider it carefully.
Wentiancheng recruits a bullhead beast from the recruitment system. In addition to the soul of the Niuta tribe, the recruitment cost also requires consumption of a lower-level spirit gem. The price of a lower-level spirit crystal is at least equivalent to ten higher-level soul gems. Therefore, twenty higher-level soul gems are the bottom line given by Wentiancheng, because no matter what, you can't lose money.
After five seconds of calming.
Ross was the first to raise his hand and shouted: "Twenty-two superior soul gems."
Taro Yamano: "Twenty-three."
Cao Fengyun said lightly: "Twenty-five."
Rose hesitated for a while and shouted, "Twenty-six gems!"
Another city lord shouted: "I'll pay twenty-seven yuan."
“Twenty-eight!”
Taro Yamano: "Twenty-nine."
"thirty!"
“Thirty-one!”
Cao Fengyun frowned, as if tired of this kind of competition, raised his hand and shouted: "I'll be thirty-five!"
Fengyun City is rich and powerful, and it directly increases the price of four soul gems. The other city lords look at each other. Although the bullhead beast is very valuable for purchasing, it must be within the scope of tolerance. Most of them come for inheritance crystals, so they still have to retain their financial resources to facilitate competition for inheritance crystals. However, such exciting things appeared at the beginning of the auction, and everyone was very satisfied and looked forward to the next auction.
"Thirty-five once, thirty-five twice..." Du Tao said with a hammer: "Okay, congratulations to the Lord of Fengyun for successful bidding!"
Cao Fengyun's expressionless face, but his eyes fell on the bull-headed wizard on Du Tao's back, and suddenly said, "I wonder if Fengyun City can sell this lord monster? I am willing to release 150 superior soul gems!"
Fengyun City's wealth and prosperity shocked the audience again.
Du Tao said with a smile: "The city lord is joking."
Cao Fengyun smiled, but he was tactful and didn't ask again.
In order to participate in the auction, the city lords need four teleportation times back. Although Cao Fengyun finally redirected the teleportation price due to public opinion, the number of superior soul gems will cost dozens of superior soul gems for a trip. This is a sky-high travel fee, almost the sum of the income of a city after minusing the normal daily consumption of thousands of people in a city. Only half of it is used for teleportation consumption, and the other half flows into the pocket of the tyrant Cao Fengyun. It is through teleportation that Fengyun City made a lot of money.
Now it seems that despite the high travel costs, it is still worth the money.
This auction, Wentiancheng, has invested a lot of money, from bullhead beasts, to inheritance crystals, to green weapons and equipment, magic scrolls, and goblin technology products. Every time it appears, it will make the city lords lit up.
After a "goblin small airship" was successfully auctioned, all the goods provided by Wentiancheng were sold out. What was to be sold next were the rare treasures provided by each city. Most of these things were screened by Du Tao himself, and all the things that could be taken to the stage were treasures.
"Second-level secret realm stone, low-level concentrated grass planting site."
As soon as this item came on stage, everyone opened their eyes wide. This is a secret realm opening stone. Looking at the human city, there is a good secret realm, which means that wealth is coming, and the construction of the city is inseparable from the resources obtained in the secret realm. Any secret realm stone is extremely precious.
However, when the city lord inquired about the use of the concentration grass, he couldn't help but be disappointed. The function of this grass is to speed up the recovery of mental power, which is a very useless effect, and it does not directly restore mental power. It seems that it can be taken to the stage, but for the sake of a secret stone.
"The auction starts with ten yuan in the upper level soul gems."
The price is surprisingly low, it is the same as the low price of a bullhead beast. You should know that the "Niuto Third Army Outpost" that produces the souls of the Niuto tribe is also a level 2 secret realm. It can be seen that even Du Tao is not very optimistic about this secret realm stone.
"eleven!"
"Thirteen!"
"fourteen"
“…”
"eighteen"
Although the concentration grass is not a good thing, as a resource secret realm, other plants may appear in it. No matter what, the secret realm stone is a secret realm stone, and there will never be a shortage of buyers. Although there are limits on the number of secret realms of one level, no city will despise too many secret realms at this stage.
Not long after, the secret realm stone was fryed to twenty-five superior soul gems.
"Thirty superior soul gems"
A charming voice suddenly sounded, and everyone looked back and saw Han Kexin sitting on the gorgeous blood-red throne floating in the air, just now she paid for the price.
Cao Fengyun narrowed his eyes slightly: "Thirty-five."
Han Kexin did not hesitate: "Forty!"
Cao Fengyun bounced the dust on his body and said indifferently: "Forty-five."
Han Kexin shouted immediately: "Fifty!"
Cao Fengyun suddenly showed a cunning smile, "Since the city lord is so persistent, Cao is not willing to take away love with his sword, so this secret stone has returned to Tiancheng."
Han Kexin said lightly with a blank expression: "Thank you."
The city lords couldn't help but show the same expression. Cao Fengyun seemed to have not taken too many photos at all. The purpose of raising the price seemed to have made Wentian City get a comeback, and Han Kexin was really caught.
After seeing this, Wang Chao almost ran away and held an axe and was about to cut people. Fortunately, Jinshi grabbed him and did not cause any trouble. The happiest thing this time was probably the City Lord Ross who sold the Secret Realm Stone. The price was more than twice as much as he expected, and he made a fortune unexpectedly. Du Tao couldn't help but sigh when he dropped the hammer. Han Kexin was too uneasy and spent a lot of gems in vain.
Han Kexin was not angry at all. She and Xiao Yu had already developed some keen intuition for so much time. Han Kexin's intuition told her that this secret realm stone is definitely worth the money, and even if it costs her several times the price, it is completely worth it!
In fact, this is true. In the near future, Cao Fengyun will regret that he was unable to buy the secret stone this time and beat his chest and stamped his feet.
Hope City also provides several second-level magic storage crystals. After some competition, Han Kexin and the city lords bought a few. Hope City also provides several green-grade magic rings and magic scrolls, which also sold for a good price. The auction items from other cities were also taken out one after another, but there was no ordinary item, and the price was very good. Everyone was very satisfied. The auction lasted for three hours to successfully end.
The lords of each city each gained something, and did not stop for any more, and left satisfied.
Du Tao counted and said: "Excluding the expenses at the auction, a total of 533 superior soul gems were harvested."
Han Kexin nodded with satisfaction and said, "The auction will be held every month in the future. This venue is too small and shabby and needs to be renovated. Everyone has been busy for a day, so let's go and rest."
Before leaving, Du Tao suddenly said again: "Deputy City Lord, I have something I don't know if I should say."
"Please say it."
Du Tao sighed and said, "I think Wentian City performed too high-profile and strong today. Although we are good at showing our strength, but our performance is too strong, it will cause concerns to Cao Fengyun's first-class ambitious city lord."
Han Kexin seemed to disagree, "Let them go, I don't think it can cause any storm. No matter it is a chaotic or prosperous era, only strong people have the right to speak, and only strong people have status. In the future, Wentian City will definitely become famous and becoming the number one city in the mainland is no problem. These short-sighted rats don't need to take them seriously at all."
"With that being said, the so-called wood is so beautiful that the wind will destroy it. The stronger we are, the more fearful others are, the more they will limit us, restrain us, and even do some tricks in secret. This will not be beneficial to anyone if this continues. Perhaps everyone is not strong at the moment, and still regards survival as the first priority, but when they settle down in the future, there will inevitably be disputes. This is human nature and we cannot avoid it. What we are afraid of is that it is not good for Wentian City to unite other city lords. I suggest holding on to a few allies first."
"You can do this first." Han Kexin nodded and said, "Xiao Yu is the best at the chaotic continent. He once said that cities can compete with each other, but I don't know how to compete. I believe that the same is true for other city lords. We cannot be lenient with those who have ulterior motives. We should wait until City Lord Xiao Yu comes back before making plans."
Du Tao said goodbye.
Han Kexin sat alone in the room thinking.
Du Tao's words are not unreasonable. After thinking about it calmly, I feel that it is indeed a bit troublesome. But if it is Fengyun City, Stormwind City or several other cities, Wentian City will not take it seriously. But what if they unite? Then the situation will be the same.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the room.
"Deputy City Lord." A consul under Du Tao brought two soldiers to the door and said, "The City Lord Yamano Taro of Storm City has brought you a gift."
Han Kexin looked at a box that was put in, frowned and said, "Open and take a look."
