The Seven Deadly Child
Shovel up
"The opening price for this batch of Crystal Beasts was 100,000 Bronze Mana Pearls!"
"150.000!"
Theo immediately bid as soon as Liu Wei completed the introduction of the auction item.
Hearing Theo make a bid, the group of auction participants who were in the row of public chairs started grumbling with each other.
"Damn it! Don't these VIP guests want to give us a chance?"
"Yeah…! Really sucks!"
"It's the same as being here just to watch!"
"At least give us a chance to buy these ordinary items! You guys already monopolize the special item!"
*Woooss….!!!
As soon as the atmosphere started to boisterous and uncontrollable, by the scolding of the general grade auctioneer present in the lower stands, a powerful aura re-emitted from Liu Wei's body.
"I warned you! No one at all can suppress the other party! If you want an item, then bargain!" Dengus Liu Wei's. Still with his powerful aura.
"Hmmm…. 200,000!"
"250.000!"
Despite looking upset, the auction participants who did not want to offend Gaia Treasure, could inevitably only swallow their irritation, and started bidding.
Theo himself, from behind room 17 just quietly observed after opening the price at the beginning.
"Arthur, look and learn! This is how to make an offer in an auction event!" Theo.
"Ohhh.. Okay!" Arthur replied briefly.
"First as you saw earlier, open the price at the beginning, by minumum standard, so that everyone knows that you, who have the VIP invitation, want this item! You could say it was an initial shock therapy, after which just let the others bid!"
"This is called the wave test! From here you will be able to see, who are your competitors who also want this item!"
"And as you can see, in the case of the item I'm bidding for right now, the contenders are the pool of auction participants that are in the general guest row! There were no VIP guests participating at all."
"Yes continues?" Ask Arthur.
"That means, our current opponent has a slightly shallow pocket!" Said Theo, relax.
While Theo and Arthur were still in conversation, offers continued among the participants in the general guest row.
"350.000!"
"400.000!"
Each of these people, bidding only with minimal multiples, indicated Theo's guess was precise, that indeed they did not have too many Pearl Mana.
"When it is certain that your opponent does not have much money, then use the closing step, Shock the second therapy, by raising the bid several times!" Theo. Then immediately make an offer.
"1,000,000!" Theo said, with a very steady firm voice, without any vibration of intonation.
Seeing that, Arthur was a little stunned. So did the woman who accompanied the room from earlier also heard all Theo's explanations.
"Ahhh... Why did they stop? That's still a million!" Ask Arthur. Seems clueless.
While the room companion, who had long and had attended dozens of auction events, now looked at Theo with a horrified look.
"Hahhaha..look! it's just a mental thing! Twice the shock therapy I gave you earlier, affected the mental state of these participants!"
"Basically they might have the money to rival me! But because their mentality has been shaky, coupled with the logic that each of these people are just general class guests, who certainly have a habit of frugality, they would be afraid to compete with me, he said, for fear that I will raise the price even higher a few more times!" Answer Theo casually.
"Ohhh.. boss! How is it different from my offer? Didn't I also raise it several times at once?" Ask Arthur.
"Hmmm... Are you listening to my explanation or not? I told you the first step was the wave test!"
"Your opponent was clearly a VIP guest! So don't equate them with the guests of this General class!" Dengus.
"Ahhh...so that's it! I understand, let's talk about something else, boss…!" Arthur said, trying to make a face of understanding.
Seeing that, Theo who knew this child did not understand, just tried to make him stop talking because he did not want to learn this kind of complicated thing, immediately put on an annoyed face.
"Hmmm.. continue like that, then the Beast Crystal you just bought just now won't give it to you! I'd better sell it to the guy in room 13 to get the capital back!" Theo.
"Ehh.. Don't be! All right, well, I'm studying!" Arthur said quickly.
"Well, second item, you're the bargain!" Answer Theo.
So on, Theo guided Arthur to bid on the next items, they took part in almost all the items that were being auctioned.
This made Room 17 Theo's, receiving many hostile gazes from the general class's invited guests, who they felt Theo had robbed the auction.
"This is unfair! Is he not going to let us get any items?"
"Damn it! Is that guy's money endless?"
Wagering is again heard along with the crazy action in Theo, from 7 common items at auction, so far 5 of them fell into the hands of Room 17.
"Hahahha. Now I'm starting to understand!" Arthur said, having fought bidding wars many times.
"Good! After this let me bid!" Theo said, when the eighth item or one of the last three special items, will immediately take the stage.
"Ohhh.. By the way, Miss, how much is my money left?" Ask Theo suddenly, to the escort lady of the room.
This woman, who from earlier was only stunned to see the incident Theo casually treated the grand auction, as a training ground for Arthur, especially Theo with various tricks, able to repel opponents of his competitors at minimum standard prices, from the goods auctioned. It stuttered as Theo asked him.
"That's. You've bought some items, namely a set of Crystal Beasts for 1 million, the secret manual of an incomplete ancient formation of 800,000. Class B weapon 600,000. A set of 900,000 B class Armor. And lastly is a mysterious map that is not clear for 500,000. So the total is 3,800,000. Subtracted by your savings of 11,950,000 means your remaining money is 8,150,000 Bronze Mana Pearls!" Answer the roomkeeper. With a little awkward.
"Hmmm... good! Let's see if these last 3 items are interesting enough to buy!" Theo.
But when the last three items were removed, unlike Theo's expectations, the three did not really interest him. There was actually one secret technique manual that was related to poison, slightly attracting his attention.
But considering that this manual might be in his Master's library stash, and also he felt that his knowledge of poison was already quite high due to much learning from the hidden village library, he had learned, he's shutting down to take part in the bidding war. Moreover, the competitive opponent is the guests in the VIP row which will certainly be too draining financially if he competes.
"Hmmm.. middling, 8,150,000 Bronze Mana Pearls, means that when converted into Silver Mana Pearls, it would be worth 81,500! That was enough to cultivate in a few years!" Theo said, with a satisfied expression. When the auction event has officially closed.
