Elf, I am really a farmer

The auction is still going on, and rare Pokémon are being sold one after another.

Although many of them are not as precious as the first Charmander, some of them are rare items that ordinary people rarely see.

Although Wen Qi was very interested in them, he did not take any action.

He knew that his financial resources were limited and he couldn't make a blind bid on impulse.

Besides, for him, these things are fine whether he wants them or not.

In this way, the auction lasted for a full hour in a warm and tense atmosphere.

At this time, Wu Li on the stage said:

"The first half of the auction is over. Let's take a break. We will start the second half in half an hour."

With that, the first half came to an end.

After experiencing the exciting hour just now, everyone felt a little tired.

So, some people went out for a walk, or chatted with the people next to them about the things that had just been auctioned.

There are also people who look hurried when they go out, and you can tell at a glance that nothing good is going to happen.

In the private room upstairs, Li Xiang and Wen Qi were drinking tea leisurely.

In the auction just now, Li Xiang also purchased some items. He used 1.5 million to buy a high-level fire stone, and also bought 100 intermediate-level perfect fire energy blocks, which cost 400,000.

In fact, when Wen Qi heard the price just now, he realized that he was still too naive.

The prices of the energy cubes I sold before were indeed a bit low, but fortunately, I didn’t lose too much.

He had forgotten to ask Li Xiang before the auction started whether he could provide items for auction on site. But now that the auction was halfway through, there was no point in asking again.

While Wen Qi was thinking about the problem, Li Xiang said:

“The first half is over. The authenticity of the items just auctioned is basically determined by the auction house. They are basically guaranteed to be authentic. If you buy a fake, you can ask for compensation.

However, for the items in the second half of the auction, the auction house itself cannot tell whether some of the items are real or fake. You may get a bargain, or you may lose money. If you are not sure, don't make a move. "

When Wen Qi heard what Li Xiang said, he finally understood why some people left the scene just now. He thought they had something important to do.

It turns out that some people know they are unsure, have poor control, and are afraid of being cheated, so they just leave.

At this time, Wen Qi was really interested in the second half, because he had a system, and nothing could escape his eyes.

Li Xiang saw that Wen Qi had not bought anything before, and thought that Wen Qi was short of money. So Li Xiang said:

"Wenqi, you don't have enough money, how about I lend you some?"

"No, I just didn't see anything I particularly wanted here. Some of the things I was interested in were basically too expensive and not worth it."

Li Xiang wasn't sure whether Wen Qi was really not interested or just had no money, but since Wen Qi said so, he had no choice but to give up.

Just like that, half an hour passed quickly.

The hall that had been lit up just now suddenly became dark again, with only the light on the auction table shining.

At this time, the auctioneer Wu Li came out and said:

“The second half of the black market auction begins.

I think everyone is clear about the rules of the second half of the black market, so I won’t explain them in detail here.

Okay, let's take a look at the first auction item, a gemstone necklace from the Imperial Era, with a starting price of 500,000."

However, when a seemingly ordinary Imperial-era gemstone necklace appeared on the stand, people did not seem to be very interested.

The gem on the necklace glows faintly, and despite its long historical background, such gems are not considered particularly precious in the Pokémon world.

After all, in this world, strength and rarity are the important criteria for measuring value, and items such as gems often exist only as decorations or souvenirs.

However, the jewel necklace, which seemed ordinary to everyone, attracted Wen Qi's special attention.

Through the system's prompt, Wen Qi was surprised to find that this gem was actually a super evolution stone of the giant mantis!

For some unknown reason, although super evolution stones have been discovered in this world, people only treat them as ordinary gems and have no idea of ​​the magical effects of super evolution stones. But Wen Qi knows.

Wen Qi's Titania is already quite powerful, and the Mega Evolution Stone is a rare item that can allow Pokémon to mega evolve. Once used, it can stimulate the powerful power hidden in the Pokémon's body, making Titania even stronger.

Wen Qi was extremely excited, as he knew very well that the value of this super evolution stone was far beyond what could be measured by half a million.

Wen Qi looked around and found that no one else seemed to realize the true value of the gem, so he decided to seize this rare opportunity.

Wen Qi raised the number plate in his hand and shouted out his offer without hesitation:

"Six hundred thousand!"

This price immediately caused surprise and discussion among everyone present, but Wen Qi didn't care at all.

He understood that for a gem that could allow Giant Mantis to super evolve, this price was not high.

Although this price is not low for gems, gems from the Imperial Era are still very attractive to some researchers, so they also made bids.

After a fierce bidding, Wen Qi finally successfully bought the gem necklace for one million yuan.

He felt a surge of excitement and satisfaction, as if he had already seen the powerful figure of his Giant Mantis after its super evolution.

Li Xiang was a little surprised that Wen Qi bought this gemstone. He didn't know why Wen Qi wanted to buy this gemstone from the Empire Era. So he asked:

"Wenqi, what's so special about this gem? Why did you buy only this gem when you didn't buy so many other things before?"

Wen Qi said:

"I have a younger sister at home. Although we are not biological sisters, we used to have a good relationship. I haven't seen her for a long time. This time I want to give this gem to her as a birthday gift."

Although Li Xiang knew that Wen Qi's reason was somewhat concealing, he just asked casually and didn't care much about the real reason why Wen Qi insisted on buying this gem.

I asked just now because I was simply curious.

Wen Qi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Li Xiang did not continue to ask questions.

Wen Qi honestly didn't know what better reason to use to explain why he bought this, so he could only use that reason to deal with it.

Wen Qi had not expected that this trip to the black market would yield such a huge gain. He bought the key stone at the grocery market above and the giant mantis evolution stone at the black market auction below. He didn't know if this was God's will.

Thinking of this, Wen Qi smiled happily.

Li Xiang, who was standing next to him, was also confused about Wen Qi's appearance, but he thought it might be related to the gem just now.

Although I don’t know what secrets this gem has, but since Wen Qi values ​​it so much and even can’t help but be overjoyed, it must be something very important and precious.

It seems that if I come across something similar in the future, if the price is not expensive, I might consider buying it. Even if I can’t use it myself, I can give it to Wenqi and use it as an opportunity to make friends with him.
