Unlimited Bloodstone
Chapter 134: : Black Market Auction
Blunt knife city.
There were almost no people on the streets at night, only two carriages parked in front of the shop of the Wisteria Chamber of Commerce.
Zidi and his party did not immediately go to the auction, but first entered the resident store.
The magical girl was holding a slate on which was carved a large section of text. The text is densely packed and chaotic. Obviously, a special codebook is required for deconstruction to obtain the true information hidden in it.
Zidi checked it three times, and after confirming that it was correct, she solemnly placed the stone slab in the groove.
This is a magical device in the shape of a pillar, dedicated to communication.
The column is only half a person high, with a round top and a groove in the center. The rectangular stone slab is placed in, and the groove pattern is connected.
"After doing this step, there is no way to look back." Zidi said in his heart.
The hesitation is only a moment.
The pearl bubble is exhausted and the situation is critical. She must get rid of the crime as soon as possible despite seeking the help of Patriarch Baizhen!
Zidi manipulated the column with his spirit and began to instill mana with all his strength.
The magic device was activated, emitting a burst of yellow light.
The light is condensed on the slate, and the words on the surface of the slate are activated and turned into a stream of blue light, which is transported from the slab to the column.
The yellow light on the pillars immediately changed into blue light, and the blue light suddenly went down and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Information transmission...success!" Zidi let out a sigh of breath and pushed open the door.
At the door, Flute was guarded dutifully.
Immediately, Sandao and the person in charge of the shop carried a small box and joined Zidi.
The small box was full of gold coins.
This is the money in the shop.
With the funds, Zidi and others returned to the carriage.
The carriage again ran on the empty and dark streets.
The hatred hidden in the roof fell silently into the carriage.
The person in charge led Zidi, Flute, and Three Swords into the auction house on the black market. Not only is the road unobstructed, there are also special boxes.
Although the Wisteria Chamber of Commerce is broken, it still has a reputation. Although the person in charge is embezzled, his relationship is very hard and he can eat well here.
The auction has started for a while, but there is a secret door behind the box, and no one knows that Zidi and others joined in midway.
After Zidi sat down, a magic bottle was being auctioned off.
This hanging bottle is like brass refining, the bottom of the bottle is up, the mouth of the bottle is down, and there are constantly dripping from the mouth of the bottle.
"This is a fresh water bottle, high-grade silver. When it stands still, it can absorb and transform the water element in the air and condense fresh water. If we instill magical power, or fill the bottle with water element spar, it can produce a lot of Fresh water. If the mana is enough, a small bottle can meet the fresh water demand of 200 people a day. The starting price is 100 gold coins, and the bid price shall not be less than 10 gold coins. The auction will start below!"
As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, someone in the hall made an offer: "110 gold."
"120 gold."
"130 gold."
"150 gold!"
Someone raised the price to 150 gold coins, and there was silence.
The auctioneer settled and ended the auction.
The fresh water bottle was removed and replaced with a delicate compass.
"The next lot, palm compass, silver grade..." The auctioneer spoke at medium speed and spoke clearly.
Soon, Compass closed the transaction with 140 gold.
Then came two silver-level armors, and the auctioneer’s tone of voice turned higher: "Attention, sir and ladies, the following magic sail is as high as the gold level. Please let me introduce the feather snake sail!"
Two Black Iron level fighters came to the field carrying a large wooden box together.
They opened the wooden box, revealing a neatly folded sail in the wooden box that almost filled the box.
The auctioneer then described in detail the area, length and width of the sail, and the atmosphere in the field was much warmer.
In the end, Feather Sail was sold for 980 gold coins.
Seeing this, Zidi gradually became aware of it.
Overall, these prices are reasonable.
Copper coins, silver coins, and gold coins are the main currencies, which circulate among various continents, and play a huge role in large and small trade.
As far as the Shengming Empire is concerned, the basic living expenses of ordinary people are between 5,000 and 30,000 copper coins a year, which is 0.5 to 3 gold coins. The housing price in big cities is around 10,000 copper coins per square meter, or 1 gold coin m2. The annual income of a baronian is around 4800 gold coins.
The purchasing power of gold coins is very strong.
As for the auction items, most of them are concentrated in the field of navigation. After all, Blunt Knife City is Haicheng, and its demand for navigation is very huge.
While observing the auction items, Zidi listened to the information of the person in charge.
The black market auction is not hosted by one party, but is jointly organized by the City Lord’s Mansion, the two major families and the Bangbu Chamber of Commerce.
The first two constitute the highest level of the Blunt Knife City, and the latter has a larger background and is one of the six chambers of commerce in the Shengming Empire.
It is naturally a good thing for Zidi to be held jointly by multiple forces.
Zidi also learned about many auction records in the auction and the historical transaction prices of a large number of lots.
In general, this black market auction is in the mid-range, and the highest quality of the auction is at the gold level. Blunt Knife City is not a big city after all, the strongest is the City Lord, a gold-ranked fighter.
From these auction records, Zidi also figured out the financial resources of the main opponent.
Excluding accidental personnel, her main opponents are the people of the City Lord's Mansion and the two major families.
The main goal of Zidi this time is to buy some alchemy materials to make repairer puppets.
Among the materials needed by the puppet, there are many mid-range materials. These materials, put in the market of Blunt Knife City, it is difficult to collect enough in a short time, but they can be done in one step at the auction.
Through the person in charge, she has already obtained the list of items for this auction. There is only a brief introduction on the list, and the material items are concentrated in the second half.
Zidi was not in a hurry and showed great patience. In the first half, she also repeatedly made quotations through magic devices.
Although she does not have a strong demand for these equipment or magic items, she needs to confuse her and her opponents cannot easily see her shopping tendency.
"Unexpectedly, there are elder-level figures from the Wisteria Chamber of Commerce in the Pirates of Justice. No, even if you are not an elder, you can get the elder token, which shows that the relationship between the two is not shallow." Captain Seal also mixed in. He moved out of the name of Major General Joe and got a box.
Because Zidi offered arbitrarily quotations, and many lots were actively blended together, the Seal Captain could not judge anything for a while, so he could only continue to observe quietly.
The first half of the auction ended soon.
Such black market auctions are held at least once a month.
Entering the intermission period, the field personnel whispered to each other. Some talked about the lot, some were in the relationship between the old and the old, and some were raising funds.
At the beginning of the second half, there was an accident.
The auctioneer announced: "Please pay attention to my friends. Next, I will show a special item. This is a gold-level magic scroll, the full name is the ship spirit repair alchemy scroll! My friends may not know much about this, then I Let me introduce the origin of this item in detail."
"The people who made it are not ordinary..."
Following the explanation from the auctioneer, the attention of everyone in the field was attracted.
Zidi was quite surprised: "It was the ship spirit repairing the scroll? It was still made by Tucker. You can't read it wrong, it's exactly the same."
Captain Seal snorted coldly: "This kind of scroll is specially supplied to the Navy and the Secret Spy Department. It will flow out, the hateful imperial worm!"
Tucker and the Empire signed a strict contract and would not sell the two.
The flow of such important war preparations to the outside market is likely to be the corruption of the imperial personnel and the black-box operation.
"The starting price of this lot is 1,000 gold, and the price increase is at least 50 gold each time. Next, the auction begins!" The auctioneer announced the official auction after a long description.
There was silence for a while before someone quoted: "1050 gold coins."
Immediately, the quotations came one after another, and the price rose to 1,350 gold.
Zidi also quoted a price, and her brows were furrowed at the moment.
She wanted to take this alchemy scroll very much, but the funds in her hand were limited, and the main purpose had not been achieved yet, and she was already under pressure.
"1500 gold!" After hesitating, Zidi still offered an offer.
"The Wisteria Chamber of Commerce bids 1,500 gold!" The auctioneer was excited and his voice raised.
Captain Seal was taken aback: "The Pirates of Justice are so financially powerful? They exchanged a copy of the ship spirit repair scroll with the Empire during the day, and now they want to buy another one. It seems that there is really a ship spirit that needs to be repaired!"
Zidi suddenly increased the price by 150 gold, which discouraged everyone in the field.
On the one hand, although the scroll is a gold level, it is a one-time consumable. 1500 gold is high enough. On the other hand, not everyone has a ship spirit, even if there is a ship spirit, it may not be damaged. In the third aspect, the Ship Spirit Repair Scroll appeared in the market for the first time, and people still have no clear positioning and recognition of its value.
"1500 gold for the first time, 1500 gold for the second time." The auctioneer began to count down.
Zidi's heartbeat accelerated slightly.
The Ship Spirit Repair Scroll is of great benefit to the Pirates of Justice. Zidi knows very clearly that 1500 gold coins are a big profit!
"1500 gold coins third..." The auctioneer had just raised the wooden hammer, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "The City Lord's Mansion bids 1550 gold!"
Zidi's complexion changed and immediately increased the price: "1600 gold."
The City Lord's Mansion followed the price again: "1650 gold."
Zidi gritted his teeth: "1800 gold."
There was a wave of noise in the field.
The City Lord's Mansion followed the price again, with a tough attitude: "2000 gold!"
The person in charge changed color and couldn't help but reminded: "My elder, the other party is the chief steward of the City Lord's Mansion."
Zidi squeezed both fists slightly and said in a hesitant tone: "2050 gold."
There was a contemptuous laughter from the box of the City Lord's Mansion: "2200 gold!"
The price is very high.
There was a noise in the hall, and everyone was talking.
Usually, a gold-level weapon is only about 1,600 gold.
An alchemy scroll, UU reading www.uukanshu. com can only be used once and the auction reached 2200 gold, which is very high. Unless there is a strong demand, it is obviously not cost-effective.
Zidi chose to give up.
She told the person in charge: "Check, who is selling this scroll? I want to ask for it, and the price can be negotiated."
The person in charge wiped the sweat from his forehead and immediately exited the box.
At the same time, in another box, Captain Seal sneered: "Is the City Lord's Mansion bought? Haha, dare you buy this kind of armament?"
Immediately, he had made up his mind to report the matter.
The nature of this matter is serious, and even a gold-level city lord can't handle it, so he must spit out this alchemy scroll.
But it is more difficult to inquire about the source.
After all, behind the black market, one of the six chambers of commerce is hosting.
