Chapter 264: Intrigue (1)

CAKULUCIA EXPLAINED TO THEM: "POSEION AND I ARE IN A BOX, ALTHOUGH THIS TIME I AM USING MY NAME, BUT EVERYONE WILL ONLY SEE THAT THIS IS AN ANCIENT RELIC OF ALCHEMY SLATE, AND IT IS SUSPECTED THAT POSEIDON WANTS TO BUY THIS SLATE." POSEIDON IS THE ONLY PLAYER GRANDMASTER IN THE FORGOTTEN CONTINENT, AND HIS OPTIMISM WILL NOT CHANGE THE VALUE OF THE SLATE ITSELF, BUT IT WILL IMMEDIATELY CHANGE THE DETERMINED PRICE OF THE SLATE. ”

EGGPAIN LISTENED IN A FOG AND ASKED, "WHAT IS THE DETERMINATION PRICE?" ”

"I'm going to give an example to explain this." Kakulucia thought for a moment and said, "Let's put it this way, the value of a thing itself does not change in any way, do you understand? For example, if a piece of bread is worth 10 guilders, then it will always be worth 10 guilders. The price of bread will fluctuate around the value, sometimes it will be sold for 12 federal guilders, and sometimes it will be sold for 8 federal guilders, this fluctuation will not change the value, and this piece of bread will be worth 10 federal guilders. It can't sell 1 federal guilder, and it can't sell 100 federal guilders, because this fluctuation is finite, and the value is forever constant, do you understand? ”

EGGPAIN NODDED.

"Another example is the finale item of the third auction, the Helldog's egg," Kakuluchia said, "I think it's worth about 320,000 gold coins, and 320,000 gold is what it's worth." But I want this egg very, very much, so I'm willing to give 500,000 gold coins for it. The extra 180,000 gold coins is the price of determination. Determined to sell an item for a price that far exceeds its own value, I am willing to spend 500,000 gold coins to buy this pet egg; But I wouldn't be willing to pay 100 federal guilders for a loaf of bread, and the difference is the determined price. ”

Blake suddenly said: "So you are using the reputation of POSEIDON to raise the price of this slate's determination, right?" ”

The big boss smiled: "Not bad. We're big players, and everyone in this auction house is our enemy. Although it is said that there is only one person who can win this slate in the end, but one who can weaken one is one, all the big auctions are a long-term battle, and perhaps what we are trying to do now will be the last straw that breaks the camel's back. ”

"In that case. Hurry up and raise the price! Visconti excitedly said: "Raise the price a little higher, and trick him a little more." ”

"No, no, no." Kakuluchia shook his head again and again: "The auction house pit people must pay attention to skills, so that people can see that you are raising the price, in case the strong man breaks his wrist, he will be the one who suffers." This is a fast and accurate move, and I'll show you how to do it in a moment. ”

The butler took the record of the bid just now to Kakulucia, and the big boss flipped through it and put it aside.

"See what?" Yang Hai asked.

"I didn't see anything, this information is not enough, the auction has just begun." Kakuluchia said calmly, "The alliance of these little bean tyrants is closer than I thought. This time the auction is going to be fun. By the end of the first game, I was basically able to get a rough idea of what was going on. He pointed to the record of the bidding recorded by the butler and said, "Half of these people who participated in the bidding just now are not really bidding, the problem is that I don't know which half." Among the insincere people, some are coaxing the seedlings, some are playing smokescreens, and some are covering for their allies, and it is very irrational to make hasty judgments. Let's take a look at the official website. ”

The price of the slate continued to rise, and even the NPC auctioneer was stunned by the fact that it was sold for a high price of 48,000 gold coins.

"Will everyone be fooled by such a price increase?" Blake expressed skepticism.

"Of course not." Kakulucia said, "For example. I'm pretty sure Fred wasn't fooled at this point. ”

Yang Hai was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Uncle King's name was Fred.

"Not fooled...... So why is he involved in the offer? Yang Hai asked, just now the king raised the price of this stone slab to 35,000 federal guilders, if it wasn't for the king's raising. Prices won't continue to go so crazy either.

"There are many possibilities." Kakuluchia touched his chin: "Maybe he's cooperating with us to raise the price." DARK's Life Profession Association is famous all over the continent, and the king's bid will give the auction house a very large confidence, even if it is a false confidence. For the king. It's also a good option to be able to weaken your competitors; Maybe he wasn't sure if we really wanted this slate, so he made a price test. If this tablet is our target, we will inevitably feel uncomfortable with the king's bid and adjust our strategy, then give him the opportunity to confirm our intentions, and then he will also use this opportunity to raise the price as much as possible and weaken us. ”

"I can't, I'm having a headache when I hear it." Yang Hai smiled bitterly and retreated.

"Come to this place a few more times, and you'll understand." The big boss smiled: "Okay, it's almost." ”

At this moment, the slate froze at the position of 48,000, determined that the limit of the price was broken, and people regained their senses and began to be cautious.

The auctioneer drops the hammer.

Forty-eight thousand once

Forty-eight thousand twice

Forty-eight thousand three -

"Fifty thousand." Kakuluchia gave an offer without changing colors.

"We've already made a move, and now it's up to others to pick it up." The big boss crossed Erlang's legs, and the knuckle of his middle finger beat the table rhythmically: "In the auction house, generally speaking, if a person really wants to buy a certain item, there will be two kinds of tables. The first kind of table xiàn is to mend the knife, the moment when the price is frozen, almost to the limit, blatantly make up the knife, give a much higher price, and break the psychological defense line of the original bidder. The second is silence, which is not very vocal in the bidding process, and then suddenly exerts force in the second half. Both of these are typical signs of wanting to buy an item. We didn't continue to shout halfway, we kept silent, and made up for the knife again, at this time Clary and the king must have suspected that we really wanted this slate, so the two of them were faced with a choice, do you want to offer us at this time? ”

As soon as Kakulucia's words fell, he heard an offer from Mr. Clary's box: 53,000 gold coins!

Everyone laughed, and Visconti was the most excited, and asked loudly: "Shall we put on a show, or shall we continue to pit him?" Quote a higher price, right? ”

"Forget it." Kakuluchia shook his head, "If we hold it again, we are in danger, 50,000 gold coins is actually a bottom line price, no matter how much it is, probably Clary will not report it." ”

The auctioneer made the final decision, and Kalkuluchia chose silence.

The crowd in the box cheered, and Visconti shouted, "I didn't expect the auction game to be so fun!" I should have organized more of my team to experience it when I got back. ”

"It's so easy to get rid of Clary's 50,000 gold coins!" EGGPAIN WAS INCREDULOUS: "THIS IS A SIXTH-PART ARTIFACT!" ”

"It doesn't have to be that you cheated 50,000 gold coins." Kakuluchia shook his head and said, "Maybe this slate is his goal." This slate can be sold for about 30,000 gold coins at auction, which means that we may only have cheated him for 20,000 gold coins. Of course, if this slate was not his goal, and he was just here to raise the price, it would indeed be a pure loss of 50,000 gold coins. Also, the heart of the golden oak ...... Hmph, this thing can't be bought for 300,000 gold coins, and it's very possible to sell it until it breaks the 500,000 mark. ”

"Yo, it looks like I'm pretty rich." Yang Hai shrugged.

The auction continues.

The scene just now made many people think, and it was clear that Clary was tricked by Kakulucia, who gave up so neatly and didn't struggle at all, which showed that he didn't care about the slate at all. With Kakulucia taking the lead, the atmosphere in the auction room suddenly became grand and enthusiastic.

Lots 6 and 7 also passed quickly, and when it came to Lot 8, their first goal of this auction was unveiled.

"Lot eight is a scroll." The dwarven auctioneer's tone carried a rare hint of excitement: "This is a special psychic scroll that, when used, allows the recipient to understand the language of the dragon. This scroll is unique on the continent, and it requires the spirit of a dragon to complete the seal. The starting price is 40,000 gold coins, so please place your bids! ”

Yang Hai sat up straight.

It was a scroll he wanted to buy.

He didn't know what other players might do with the scroll, but it was very important for him to be fluent in dragon language. His day-to-day communication with Thor can only rely on tacit understanding and eye contact, but as Thor grows up, what he wants to express becomes more and more complex, and he needs to be able to understand dragon language.

It is true that it takes a special body structure to speak dragon language, but it is not necessary to understand dragon language. What's more, being proficient in dragon language also has a special meaning for Yang Hai, because he still has a task that Sata Fiyad has not done, which may be a very, very troublesome task, and winning the scroll is a heavy benefit for the progress of this task. In addition, as a polymath, Yang Hai's language knowledge is about to be level 10, but he is still a little bit unable to go up, this scroll smashes on his body, and Yang Hai's first level 10 branch skill is about to appear.

This is the auction item that Yang Hai named and wanted, this time Yang Hai only needs this specific item, and the others are all scattered materials, if you can take it, you can take it, and if you can't take it, forget it.

As soon as the host said that the auction had begun, some people began to compete for bids, and the number of bidders was not too many, nor was it too few.

The offer quickly rose from 40,000 gold coins to 50,000 gold coins, and it began to freeze, but this time Kakuluchia did not wait too long and gave the quotation directly.

70,000 gold coins.

The auction room was in an uproar. (To be continued......)
