Douluo: Strange Fire Martial Spirit, starting with a 10-year soul ring

Chapter 389 Dehai City Auction House

Guangmingding had no reason to refuse, and happily handed over an invitation letter, "Guest, there will be a large-scale auction tonight, and you can enter with this invitation letter."

He is also one of the shareholders of this auction house. When he pawns high-priced items, he takes them to the auction house for sale.

Han Yu took the invitation from him, took away the money on the counter, and left the pawn shop.

Di Tian sneered and said: "Although I haven't spent much time walking on the continent, the thing you took out is obviously worthless. It can be seen almost everywhere on Douluo Continent."

Han Yu shook his head, "Things are rare and valuable. Although glass is not valuable in Douluo Continent, here, it is rare and valuable. Besides, look at that bald head, he definitely made a lot of money."

Di Tian stopped asking and asked instead: "What should we do next, go to that auction house?"

Han Yu spread his hands, "What else? What can we do with the little money we have? However, this time I not only have to sell some things, but I may also have to buy a lot of things."

Going to a pawn shop to pawn is just a stepping stone. The real big deal is at the auction house.

You know, no matter how precious your things are, if you sell them in a pawn shop, you will only get 70% of the price at most. But if it is placed at the auction house, it is possible to get double the price.

This means that the auction house in Haicheng is by invitation only, and Han Yu has found out about it before. Otherwise, how could he choose this pawn shop and get so much profit from this bald man?

Han Yu interrupted: "Just in time, I need to sell something, you take me to the treasure appraisal office first."

No matter where the soul bone appears, it will attract countless people to fight for it. This ordinary century-old soul bone can be sold for a good price without being targeted by too many people. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Whether it is Douluo Continent or Sun Moon Continent, the richest group is the soul master group. Then, as the thing that a soul master needs most, the price must be very high.

The guard did not refuse, and not long after, Han and Yu arrived at the treasure appraisal place.

But Dehai City is a big city in the Blue Moon Empire. Even though the auction house is small, it is definitely capable of digesting these centuries-old soul bones.

The scale of Dehai City's auction house is far smaller than that of Tiandou Auction House, and even smaller than Hanhai City's exchange.

When they reached the door of the auction house, the guard quickly blocked their way.

Di Tian casually leaned against the cupboard nearby. He was not Han Yu's subordinate, so he had no reason to follow him.

These three soul bones are the seven-hundred-year-old heavily armored turtle torso bone, the three-hundred-year-old bamboo leaf cobra skull, and the nine-hundred-year-old wind demon dog's right leg bone.

Without much hesitation, he put the items into his soul guide and ran quickly towards the auction house.

Rick smiled and said: "The guest is joking. If our Haicheng auction house is unable to accept it, I am afraid that there will not be many auction houses in the entire Blue Moon Empire that are qualified."

Before he could finish speaking, Han Yu handed the invitation letter into his hands.

Han Yu sat on the seat in front of him and said straight to the point: "We are here to sell things. However, this thing is worth a lot of money. It depends on whether you can eat it."

Through mental exploration, Han Yu quickly found the location of the auction house.

……

"Two guests, Rick, do you need the treasure to be appraised? We need a treasure appraisal certificate issued by the Haicheng Auction House, which is valid throughout the continent. If you just issue a certificate for the treasure separately, you will need to pay an additional fee. Expenses." The gentle-looking middle-aged man said.

"You two, please come with me. The auction will not start until evening. You two will follow me to the rest area to wait. In the rest area, the auction house has provided a lot of food for the distinguished guests. You two can enjoy it to your heart's content."

After they left, Guangming Ding, the pawnshop owner, rubbed his hands vigorously and said, "It seems that I am going to make a fortune today. This glass art piece will fetch a sky-high price of at least one thousand gold coins if it is taken to the auction house."

Seeing the two people's gorgeous clothes, the guard's attitude became more respectful, "Two gentlemen, you need an invitation letter to enter the auction house. Excuse me, are you..."

At the beginning, the soul bones that Han Yu collected from Huo Yunhe's lair included several hundred-year-old soul bones that were of average quality.

Han Yu didn't say much. He took three hundred-year-old soul bones from the soul guide and placed them flat on the table.

Among the three soul bones, the one with the highest quality is the bamboo leaf cobra skull, but the most valuable is the trunk bone of the heavily armored turtle.

"The guest is really generous. There is no such thing as a true or false soul bone. Does the guest intend to sell it directly to the auction house or let it be auctioned by the auction house? There happens to be a large-scale auction tonight. If we can reach an agreement, tonight's auction will be , these three soul bones will appear."

"If you choose to sell it directly to the auction house, I can make the decision and pay you three thousand gold coins."

Han Yu smiled faintly.

These three soul bones were considered tasteless in his hands, and it was a pity to discard them. Taking them out this time was to clear out the inventory.

Converted into gold soul coins on Douluo Continent, the three soul bones are worth 300,000 gold soul coins, which is already an extremely high price.

"I don't want so much money. If the auction house can provide the production blueprints for high-level soul guides or the study manual for mid-level soul guides, the soul bones can be sold for the same value. In addition, if the auction house is interested in trading For the above items, I still have some rare items that can be traded.”

Rick touched his nose and said with an embarrassed look: "Guest, this is not something I can decide. The items related to the soul guide are very precious, and I have no right to decide. However, there will be relevant items at tonight's auction. When the items appear, if the guest is interested, he can just take the photo at that time. As for these three soul bones, if the guest is willing to sell them at auction, you can stipulate that the items related to the soul guide should be sold first, and you may have different gains. .”

After thinking about it, Han Yu agreed with Rick's idea.

Next, he sold some sundries. At an auction, you don't just bid randomly, you need to spend corresponding capital. Han Yu has limited money, so selling some useless things to accumulate capital is a wise choice.

After leaving the treasure appraisal room, Han Yu's pocket gradually bulged.

Di Tian couldn't help but ask: "What's the equivalent of the money you have now?"

"Petty bourgeoisie." Han Yu responded with a smile.

He just had a transaction with the auction house, and he received a total of more than 10,000 gold coins. And most of them are items that are very common on Douluo Continent but very rare here.

After all, the two continents are far apart. Han Yu must have earned some traveling expenses by traveling all the way. However, most of the items were not included in tonight's auction.

Good things, the auction house will naturally sell them slowly. If you take out too much at once, and the money brought by the guests is limited, the final transaction price will not be very satisfactory. Some of the things Han Yu sold could even serve as the finale of a small auction.

……

As night falls, the Dehaicheng auction house is brightly lit.

Different from the night in Douluo Continent, people can choose to go to the Grand Soul Fighting Arena to watch the spirit fighting competition, and the various night markets in the city are dazzling. It can be said that the residents of Douluo Continent have a rich and colorful nightlife. But it's different on the Sun and Moon Continent. At night here, the city is dark, and people don't seem to have much nightlife except gathering together to drink.

As for the night auction at the Dehai City Auction House, this can only be enjoyed by a small number of nobles and businessmen.

As guests continued to enter the auction house, the auction house gradually became lively.

Most of the nobles have interest exchanges with each other. This auction event can be regarded as a disguised banquet for the nobles.

"The two brothers look familiar to each other. They must be from outside the country." A middle-aged man in luxurious clothes walked up to Han Yu and said hello.

This man has a Chinese character face, and his movements reveal stability. He seems to be a reliable guy.

Han Yu and Di Tian are essentially dragons crossing the river. Such local snakes have a lot of information in the city, and they are the ones Han Yu needs to contact.

"My name is Han Yu. To be honest, we have just entered the city recently. What is your name for this gentleman?"

The middle-aged man said with enthusiasm: "Haha, welcome to Dehai City. I am here in Dehai City. I am the president of Pujia Chamber of Commerce, Jas. I am honored to meet you."

After a brief exchange of greetings, Han Yu found the right moment and asked, "Brother Jas, to be honest, I came here this time to buy a study manual about soul guides and a production blueprint. I wonder if Brother Jas has the skills." ?”

After a pause, he continued: "Brother Jas, don't worry, brother, I won't treat you badly."

Jas smiled and said, "Brother Han, you are oversimplifying the problem. There are many families on the mainland who are eager for the soul guide. Once they get it, they will hold it tightly in their hands."

"Hey~ To tell you the truth, I came here with the intention of getting the production manual of the soul guide device. However, among the temporarily added items in the auction, there are soul bones. The importance of soul bones is self-evident. So I had to change my focus.”

"However, there are many people who have the same idea as me. If the soul guide production manual appears at the auction, maybe you can get it at a slightly lower price."

Han Yu would not believe the other party's words. The two had just met. Calling them brothers is just a show of words.

Jas will reveal his target, and it's likely that he's interested in neither item. I just want to watch myself and fight with others to a bloody head.

Thinking of this, Han Yu hurriedly ended the conversation with him.

"This guy is so kind to people. He actually shows us the way." Di Tian sneered.

Anyone who can become a noble or a businessman, except for the second generation of an unlearned noble, is no fool.

Han Yu shrugged and didn't pay much attention.

While talking, the two of them had already entered the box at the auction house.

Even if it is an invitation-only auction, it is not without ordinary guests. However, Han Yu had previously sold too many items at the auction house, and the value of these items would be included in his net worth. Therefore, his seat was in a separate booth in the front row.

There are a total of eighteen identical private rooms.

As for the remaining ordinary seats, there are more than a hundred in total. It is not ruled out that some people pretend to be pigs and eat tigers, sitting in ordinary seats.

"Speaking of which, do you really plan to obtain the study manual for the soul guide through trading?" Di Tian asked curiously.

Han Yu nodded.

Di Tian continued: "If I were you, I would first ask who has this thing, and after dark, go directly to their house to get it."

"No." Han Yu decisively refused, "You also heard what Jas said just now. There is a high probability that the soul guidance device's production blueprints and study manuals will be tightly hidden by the owner. It is not ruled out that someone may even write them all down. mind, and destroy the manual.”

"We don't know how to make a soul guide. If a fake manual is found, wouldn't it be a mistake?"

At least if the auction house dares to put it up for auction, there will be some guarantee in terms of authenticity.

Of course, there are times when the auction house is careful, and if there are fakes in the auctioned items, they are not responsible.

But this does not mean that the auction house will always maintain a tough attitude. Every fake item sold will affect the reputation of the auction house. If things go on like this, the auction house will not be far away from closing.

It is worth mentioning that the original Qibao Glazed Sect opened an auction house in the Kingdom of Haagen-Dazs. Within the first month of opening, two fakes were sold out, and it closed down immediately.

Dehai City Auction House has a long history, and Han Yu believes that there will be no fakes here.

Guests entered one after another, but the guest in Private Room No. 1 never showed up.

You know, Han Yu is only in the last box, No. 18.

"Could it be some heavyweight guy?" Han Yu couldn't help but think.

The city lord of Dehai City is the one in Box No. 3, and Han Yu, the guest in Box No. 2, learned his identity through his mental perception.

This guy is a count in the Blue Silver Empire and has a distinguished status. Moreover, he is also the top leader of the Household Department and holds great power. There are not many guys who are above him.

"With your strength, as long as you want, you can overthrow any regime on the Douluo Continent, and the Sun and Moon Continent is no exception. For these emperors, your status can completely surpass them." Di Tianbu Qie asked.

Even as a beast god, he still doesn't have that many tricks up his sleeve and acts relatively upright.

Han Yu shook his head, "There is no point in subverting the regime. If the empire cannot be managed well in the future, chaos will occur sooner or later. Rather than doing this, it is better to maintain the status quo."

He only knows how to subvert blindly, but cannot properly handle the funeral. Just like Tang San in the original time and space, he did destroy Wuhun Palace, but he didn't care at all about the social responsibilities that Wuhun Palace assumed. It didn't matter that the nobles charged for awakening the martial soul. Even the matter of the evil soul master was left unchecked by him.

It is possible to subvert a force, but one must bear the consequences that may occur in the future.

Furthermore, the higher the status of a person, the more social resources he has at his disposal. If we could get in touch with the guest in Box 1, we might be able to get a lot of information about soul guides from him.

Of course, this is predicated on paying a sufficient price.
