Only after I went to the auction house in Sanjiang City did I know what this five-story building looked like.
It was a pagoda-like internal decoration, with the first to fifth floors all hollowed out, just like today's shopping malls.
Guests from the second to fifth floors can look down from the top.
The first floor is an auction platform, and the auction items are lifted up from the basement level using a lifting platform.
No wonder the VIP's residence was arranged on the second floor underground.
It turns out that this floor is used for auctions.
From the second to fifth floors, the floors on the six sides are divided into small boxes one after another.
There are numbers on the sides of the boxes, and there is only a small window on the box.
VIPs inside can look down at the auction items from the windows.
The auction house even has special telescopes that can be carefully inspected from the windows.
Of course, before the bidding items are auctioned, there is also a catalog in each box, which is the main treasures to be auctioned in this auction, what are their characteristics, etc.
But the strange thing is that only 80% of the exhibits are shown in the catalog, which means that 20% of the exhibits are not published.
This is what Bai Ye told me.
There are two general reasons.
One is that every auction is like this, leaving suspense, which makes every auction covered with a layer of mystery, which makes such auction experts Customers have to come in person every time.
If they don't come, I'm sorry, but you will miss out on something good.
Another reason may be that these auction items cannot be made public.
As for the reasons why they cannot be made public, there are many reasons.
For example, the origin of the exhibit is unknown, or the seller of the exhibit is unwilling to make it public in a high profile.
I asked Bai Ye specifically about the reason, and Bai Ye gave me an example.
It was like a person who had a prominent family background and was extremely prosperous before, but suddenly one day he fell into despair and needed to sell his family's treasures to pay back money or provide relief.
Yes, this is a shame.
So although these people were in despair, they still couldn't lose face.
They even asked the auction house to keep them secret and not allow the information to be made public.
But some people have something in their home that has been circulated in the circle and everyone knows it.
Once you put this thing out for sale, everyone will know that it belongs to you.
The floor Bai Ye and I are on is the third floor, and the box number is 320.
From bottom to top, the higher the floor, the more noble the status.
In other words, Bai Ye, the city lord of a sixth-grade city, can only be ranked on the third level, neither above nor below.
I looked up at the fourth and fifth floors above my head.
Who were the people in these boxes?
Could it be that they were all city lords of fifth-grade cities and above?
I originally wanted to sense it, but I was worried that there would be powerful people above the Golden Immortal level inside, and I would die without knowing how.
And just after drawing the sonic boom symbol, my mental power was greatly reduced.
Therefore, there was no induction detection, but a quick glance, and then took a look around with the telescope.
I found that the seats were packed and there were people in every box.
"Who are these people upstairs?"
I asked Xiang Baiye.
Bai Ye smiled slightly and said four words: "Have power."
I think it's right, power is the first priority, including this Bai Ye, isn't it also relying on the power of the prince?
Many of the above people must have relied on the prince's power.
At this time, the shopkeeper who presided over the auction walked to the middle of the first floor, bowed and saluted to the distinguished guests from all directions, with a smile on his face, and then clasped his fists and said: "Welcome distinguished guests from all over the world to come to our auction at Sanjiang City Auction.
My surname is Lu, is the manager of this auction house and the host of today’s auction.”
The whole place was quiet, without any sound.
The shopkeeper continued: "I dare not say that our auction in Sanjiang City is the largest in the entire Jiuding Continent, but it is definitely one of the most influential auctions.

Although the scale cannot be considered the largest, each of our auctions has The competing items auctioned are all very representative and high-quality products, which is also the magic weapon for our auction house to stay at the forefront of Jiuding auctions. ” The shopkeeper paused for a moment, controlled the rhythm, and then said: "This time coincides with the return of the Earth to the Jiuding Continent.
Our auction house's foreign affairs staff went out to the Earth to purchase many local specialties.
You must know that we have just landed. of the earth, the temperature is It’s surprisingly high, and it’s also very unstable.
There are powerful monsters everywhere.
This time, our procurement staff paid a heavy price to get these competing products.
Here, on behalf of the Sanjiang City Auction House, I only want to pay a heavy price to these products.
The Foreign Affairs Office staff express their sincerest respect.”
"Well, all the boxes are full today.
Thank you all distinguished guests for your support.
I announce that our auction has officially begun.
Let's bring out our first exhibit."
The shopkeeper had just finished speaking.
There was a crash, and a door suddenly opened on the ground not far away, and then a booth slowly rose up.
The booth was covered with a red cloth.
Everyone looked at the red cloth, and some even looked at it with binoculars, as if The person under the red cloth cover was like a bride, and they all wanted to see what happened.
The shopkeeper walked to the edge of the booth and introduced with a slight smile: "Old friends who are familiar with our auctions know that the highlight of each of our auctions will be the first and last few competing items.
Of course, these Not once."
He also made a small sales, and then said: "This is a core crystal core produced from the ground of the earth."
After saying that, the shopkeeper pulled off the red cloth, revealing a sparkling stone.
"Even if I don't say it, everyone should understand what this thing is.
A planet can support the survival of living things.
First of all, this planet must have temperature, and the star core is the foundation of the planet.
The earth's star core is special and has been broken into countless pieces.
A lot of it has melted the rocks and fused them into magma.
This time our personnel found a star core fragment from the extremely hot and terrifying magma."
"This star core fragment is not small in size and contains considerable energy.
Whether it is used for cultivation or forging immortal weapons, it is an excellent material.
The starting price is one million immortal crystals, and the price increases each time For ten thousand fairy crystals, start now."
"No. 200, one million."
The shopkeeper called out the number of the box, because someone at No. 100 held up a placard, and the number and the amount of the bid were displayed in the window.
Everyone looked towards the second floor.
The second floor had numbers starting with two, the third floor had numbers starting with three, and so on.
"Number 413, two million pieces," the shopkeeper said excitedly, "Just increase the price by one million pieces."
"No. 420, three million coins."
It's also the fourth floor, the two numbers are not far apart, and one million coins are added again.
Bai Ye squinted his eyes and looked intently at the star core fragment.
"I didn't expect to find such treasures in magma.
I didn't expect that the temperature of magma comes from the energy obtained from these crystal nuclei."
I said with a wry smile, "Why didn't I think of searching for it before?"
"Sir, this thing is really something that can only be encountered but cannot be sought.
If the earth does not fall, no one can get this fragment."
Bai Ye replied to me
