To put it bluntly, Shen Hao is also a country bumpkin who has "never seen the world". He has been to the palace, met third-level officials, and visited the sect to meet big bosses in the Xuanhai Realm. However, he has no intuitive image of the so-called "high-class" in this world, and he has never lived a "high-class" life. Had.
What I like to eat the most is "sour soup noodles with spicy pepper", and my favorite drink is Wuliangye. No matter how good the tea is, it can quench my thirst. What I wear and wear is mainly for comfort, not "expensive". Coupled with his income from money, Shen Hao didn't feel that there was any difference between himself and the so-called "upper class".
But now he felt it.
The sandalwood in the wing room is said to be "one ounce of gold and one ounce of fragrance", and its effect is as if it is almighty. Tea is also a cup of tea that can keep most people nourished throughout the year.
Is this what is called upper class? Shen Hao, the inner core, didn't have the talent to understand it, so he felt one word: expensive!
I used to know what it meant to spend money like water when I was hanging out in Hualou. Now after participating in this gold medal conference, I realized that spending money like water is not very popular on the stage. You have to scatter spiritual stones like sand to make people here take a high look at you.
The low-grade spiritual stones were smashed into pieces by the hundreds without even frowning.
Dozens of middle-grade spiritual stones were thrown out, smiling as if they were throwing ordinary stones.
High-grade spiritual stones are rare, and they are usually used as auction items rather than hard currency.
Even though the spiritual stones in Shen Hao's hands couldn't make a splash here, he had no intention of using them. He waited for some items that could be exchanged for money to come out before he pressed the bidding machine next to the window. Each time you press it, it means an increase in price. If it lights up, it means the bidding is successful. If it doesn't light up, it means someone is one step ahead of you at this price, and you need to wait for the next price before pressing.
Silver coins are no more valuable than spiritual stones, but not everyone scorns them. What's more, the people participating in the auction are rich and have spiritual stones, but the people who provide the auction items are not necessarily rich. There are so many people who have to rely on money to survive or exchange for other resources.
What Shen Hao is interested in is a middle-grade defense disk. With this thing, he will be able to use it if he needs to meditate or sleep in the wild in the future. He will not have to rely solely on his own senses for defense like before.
This thing is expensive, but you can bid with money. Generally speaking, the bidding for such good things that can be auctioned with money is extremely fierce, often several times higher than the starting price, but this did not happen this time.
Because the auctioneer who was presiding over the auction on the middle stage immediately issued a "reminder" with a loudspeaker array after receiving the bid for the wing where Shen Hao was located, saying: "Shen Hao, Deputy Qianhu of Black Flag Camp, Mr. Shen's bid was successful! Is there any higher price than Lord Shen?"
Do you hear this? For a time, several people who were about to raise their placards or press the button on the bidding machine paused.
Just the three words "Black Flag Camp" made people raise their eyebrows, let alone the "extremely famous" Shen Shaxing from the Black Flag Camp.
I could pretend not to know before, but now I don’t know how to pretend even if I do.
What else can you do besides secretly scolding the auction in Fengli City for being shameless? Just for the sake of a mere piece of Dharma plate, do you forcefully sacrifice the evil star’s face?
So after Shen Hao's final bid, the scene was quiet, and there were many dissatisfied people, but no one really took the initiative to increase the price. Fortunately, this lot is marked as "own lot" on the list, which means that this item was purchased by Fengli City Auction House and is not "sent for auction". It is not a loss to others. It was sold by Fengli City Auction House. Shen Hao's face.
"Master, did you buy it? Did you really buy it?"
The three Xia girls are very curious. Can they buy something just by pressing the circular button on the side? Didn't you see the payment? This is really nothing like buying and selling in the market! And with so many people grabbing the same thing, it’s so expensive!
One hundred thousand taels already made Xia Nu think it was extremely expensive. Now it was worth one hundred thousand taels. This kind of thing of not treating money as money was far beyond Xia Nu's cognition.
"Of course I bought it, and it will be delivered soon." Shen Hao sat back on the chair, grabbing a handful of dried fruits and eating them.
So the three fox girls stopped guarding the window and stayed with Shen Hao. Their eyes would glance at the door from time to time, wondering if they could really deliver it.
Not long after, the man knocked on the door and came in holding a yellow wooden box.
"Master Shen, this is your dharma plate. Please check it." The clerk placed the box in front of Shen Hao in an orderly manner, and then stood beside it with his hands tied. There was also a person dressed as an attendant waiting nearby.
Opening the box, Shen Hao picked up the Dharma plate inside and tried it. There was no problem. Then he took out the bidding silver notes and handed them to the attendant who followed. The other party issued another receipt to Shen Hao, and the business was settled.
"This thing is good. The price is at least 50% lower than the normal price. It's a good deal." The two commanders who came next to him made the guards of the Yamen see at a glance how much advantage Shen Hao had taken. But it is not unexpected. With Shen Hao's current status, it is normal for the auction to offer some benefits to maintain the relationship. They have seen this situation many times.
It's a pity that Shen Hao doesn't know the art. If he knew the art, he would choose a more expensive one first. The auction will also give discounts and the advantage will be greater.
Shen Hao smiled. He actually understood what he should know and was too lazy to explain.
The first auction ended in a bustle, and Shen Hao won a defensive magic disk. The rest of the stuff he either wasn't interested in or couldn't afford.
After that, Shen Hao led the three fox girls around other halls in the auction, watching acrobatics and eating, like a garden tour, until the afternoon, when the second auction started.
The second auction was not in the main hall, but in a side hall. Three auctions were held at the same time. Although the specifications were not bad, it was a bit lower than the first main hall auction in the morning.
"Master, let's go take a look. There seems to be acrobatics over there!" Hongsi and Jinxiu wanted to go to one of the auctions in the side hall because they saw the word "acrobatics" on the auction details placed at the door. , there should be acrobatic performances between auctions.
Shen Hao glanced at the auction details at the door. There was an introduction to the lots, not to mention a few items that he was interested in. For example, a few high-level talismans. Not offensive or defensive, but auxiliary. One of them is even more eye-catching, called the "Flying Sky Talisman", which is said to give people the ability to fly quickly for a short period of time and lasts as long as a stick of incense.
Shen Hao also wanted to try to buy this thing, and the talisman was an external consumable, and the price was generally not too high.
"Let's go in and have a look."
Because it was in a side hall, there was no private room like the one in the main venue. Shen Hao had to sit in the front row with a special gold medal.
