The Card Maker of Time Travel

Chapter 17 The Auction

When Gu Chen logged on to Starnet again, he received messages one after another.

Gu Chen found a drink shop and sat down to check the information.

The decoration of the drink shop on the interstellar network is particularly earth-style. Gu Chen likes it very much. It feels like going back to the past.

After ordering a glass of juice made of unknown fruit, Gu Chen began to check the information one by one.

One of the messages was sent by the organizing committee of the last card maker competition. Congratulations to him for winning the first prize. The rich prize has been sent to his virtual space.At the same time, he expressed the hope that he could come to the next card maker network exchange meeting because of his special entries.

Gu Chen now knows very well that [-]% of the time when the card was made, there was an inexplicable mutation. Out of Zeng Jiang's reminder, he resolutely ignored this message and other messages asking for friends.Gu Chen continued to look down, and the remaining few messages were sent by Interstellar Auction, informing him that the goods he provided had been successfully auctioned.

Someone in the beverage store was also talking about this auction, Gu Chen pricked up his ears.

"The current auction is not as good as every year. The best card in the mid-sized auction last time was just a seven-star card. It is a waste of time and energy to participate."

"Brother, don't say grapes are sour if you can't eat grapes, I don't know who didn't take the picture of the psychedelic iris flower and was annoyed for several days. That is not an ordinary seventh-level card, it is the posthumous work of Mu Li okay."

"Hey, having said that, it is an indisputable fact that there are fewer and fewer good high-level cards in the auction now."

"Nonsense, the number of high-level card makers is limited now, and people who are not from aristocratic families are people who are covered by aristocratic families. Intermediate card makers like us with no background have no chance of being favored by others."

"Hehe, you also know that you are an intermediate card master. Isn't it a waste to give you high-level cards?"

"You can't say that. Only by getting in touch with high-level cards can you have a chance to break through to high-level cards."

"Brother, do you think you are from the Murong family or from the Wen family and Ji family? You use high-level cards to exercise your mental strength. Do you think you have a brother like Murong Yi, who is backed by the Yili Chamber of Commerce and produces high-level cards every day? ?”

Gu Chen listened with his ears up for a while, and felt that he still had a gap with the people of this world. They discussed enthusiastically what seemed to be common sense to him, which sounded like fantasy, like an illiterate mixed in with a bunch of scientists.

Feeling frustrated, Gu Chen opened the auction catalog sent by the auction house and looked at it.

Every time there is an auction in the Interstellar Auction Field, whether it is a super large or a small one, the auction booklet will be distributed in advance to all those who have bought tickets, so that everyone can decide in advance what to buy, estimate how much money to prepare, and build a Psychological expectations, this point is widely praised and welcomed by the public.

In contrast, the most criticized one for forming a considerable gap is the auction house of the Yili Chamber of Commerce.As the largest chamber of commerce in the Federation, the Yili Chamber of Commerce's auction house style is as capricious as his boss, Murong Yi, who says he can't be a card master if he doesn't want to be a card master.The general auction of the Yili Chamber of Commerce will auction up to five items at a time. Sometimes it is so rubbish that you can't figure out how it can have the nerve to take it out as an auction item, and sometimes it is so high-quality that people are caught off guard.When the Yili Auction House just opened, it auctioned off the tenth-level perfect Kaffir Angel, which stunned all the people present. Although the starting price was not high, but because everyone was not prepared, it was not a big crocodile. , but even if there are no predators, if you know in advance that there is such a lot, you must have already mobilized funds to take it at all costs, but because everyone is unprepared, they just watched this kind of lot pass because no one raised their cards.After this incident, the auction house of Yili Chamber of Commerce became very famous. Although there were mixed reputations, it couldn't stop every auction from being full.As expected, the Yili Auction House did not disappoint everyone. Although there are still some items that people can't understand how to put on the auction stage from time to time, there is an endless stream of small and large boutiques.

Gu Chen looked at the atlas, and there were indeed his own cards and Zeng Jiang's alien spar in it, but the atlas was indeed very thorough, except for the item names, there was basically no introduction to the items.

"Is there any mistake? Two-star cards like Savage Bat and Waterman can be auctioned. The heads of the people in the Interstellar Auction have been eaten by strange beasts." Said another person who was flipping through the auction book in the next seat .

"It's also possible that the people from the Interstellar Auction House went to recruit the people from the Yili Chamber of Commerce Auction House to be in charge." Another person also teased.

Gu Chen also felt quite ashamed when he heard this. The other cards in the atlas were at least five-star cards. Although Zeng Jiang seemed to say that his cards were special, the attributes and values ​​were much different from the five-star cards.

"The Interstellar Auction is much more reliable than the Yili Auction. There won't be any random cards on it. There must be something special about these few cards."

"Having said that, the Yili Auction House is the closest and there are lots of high-quality goods. Compared with the Interstellar Auction House, which has no merits, I still refine the Yili Auction House from time to time. There are surprises from time to time."

"Stop coming here, as if you can afford it if you have a surprise."

"There are really good things that go bankrupt and you have to buy them."

"Compared with the items in Yili Auction, I am more interested in their big boss, Murong Yi. Why did the former four great talents and the most favored magic card master suddenly start a business? Of course, it doesn't matter where the talent is. If you have talent, you can dominate the Federation even if you set up a Yili Chamber of Commerce, but after all, you still have less status than a card master.”

"What are you worrying about? You can't speculate on their level."

Gu Chen silently remembered one word, Yili Auction House.Next time you have a chance, you must go and have a look.

The next day, Gu Chen sent away Zeng Jiang who was going on a mission. He logged onto the interstellar network by himself, swiped the tickets sent by the star-rated auction house, and quickly logged into the auction house.

There are hall seats and box seats in the auction house. Box seats are more than ten times more expensive than hall seats. They are mainly provided to those who don’t like the excitement, those with special identities, or the VIP customers of the auction house. Of course, there are also many high-ranking people who like it. Enjoy the admiration of everyone and the pleasure of spending money like water in the eyes, so there are many local tyrants who choose the lobby seat.

Stores with auction items like Gu Chen have free tickets, but because the value of the auction items is not very high, what Gu Chen gets is the lobby ticket.Gu Chen found the seat according to the seat number on the ticket. The seat is not bad, although it is not very front, but it is in the middle, and the sight line of the auction table of the store is also very good.

Gu Chen probably came early, and there were not many people in the venue, so Gu Chen fiddled with the seats boredly.There is a small screen in front of the seat that transmits images of the lot on the auction table, and there is a small box next to it for some drinks and snacks.

Gu Chen's eyes suddenly lit up. He has been in this world for so long and he hasn't tasted the snacks here, so his interest suddenly increased.Opening a package of something similar to donuts on the earth, and putting one in his mouth, Gu Chen immediately felt every cell in his mouth flying with joy, it was delicious, and only these three words remained in Gu Chen's mind.

"Where is the poor ghost who can even eat junk food with an expression of intoxication." A pleasant and sarcastic voice came from behind.

Gu Chen still had a donut in his mouth, turned his head innocently, and looked at the young man in fancy clothes standing behind him with a haughty expression.

The boy looked slightly older than Gu Chen, and when he saw Gu Chen biting a donut and looking at him, he choked.

Originally, I thought that the other party should be ashamed or furious, but I didn't expect that the other party just looked at him innocently and confused. This feeling is really the same as meeting a fool when I want to start a war.

The young man suddenly stopped, looked at the ticket and looked for a seat, only to find that it was next to Gu Chen.

The two looked at each other for a moment, Gu Chen said hello and then continued to search for new types of snacks in the small box.

The young man frowned and looked at the look in front of him, oblivious to the interest in other people's eyes, and immediately wanted to call a partition wall to isolate this person.

The food in the interstellar network is all virtual, and there will be no side effects but no gain effect after eating, so only those who have nothing to do will eat small things in the interstellar network. Of course, there is another kind that is special Poverty can only be addicted to the Internet.

And online snacks are basically something no one has tried, neither expensive nor delicious. The interstellar auction site only allows some people to calm down their restless emotions. Auctions like Gu Chen are still The people who ate snacks who were intoxicated there before the beginning were really weird.

Gu Chen opened another pack of something similar to beef jerky, the gravy was soft but chewy, it was several times more delicious than all the meat Gu Chen had eaten on earth.Gu Chen happily took a piece and asked the boy next to him, "Do you want a piece?"

The young man's disgusted gaze was about to materialize, how could there be such a thick-skinned person, the young man shouted from the bottom of his heart.

Fortunately, the auction kicked off not too long ago, and the young man felt relieved that he could finally turn his attention to the stage instead of looking at the strange thing next to him.

As Gu Chen, who is interested in the auction items but is cash-strapped and feels that it is unreasonable to spend so much money on a card, he resolutely eats snacks and watches the auction as a movie.

The auctioneer is a young and handsome man, which makes Gu Chen a little disappointed. In his expectation, shouldn't the auctioneer be flirtatious, gorgeous, and unparalleled in this kind of online auction? What kind of bunny girl costume, big breasts costume, abstinence and intellectual costume? , okay, okay, he just thinks about it casually, so that he won't have any dirty thoughts.

Although the auctioneer on the stage was young, he was one of the senior auctioneers in the Interstellar Auction. Many people in the venue were familiar with him. Only an ignorant young man like Gu Chen would find it boring to invite such an auctioneer.

The name of the auctioneer is Wu Ning. He knows how to attract the audience's attention to the lot, how to maximize the buying enthusiasm of the masses, and maximize the value of the lot without passing the auction.A medium-sized auction like this usually does not invite a senior auctioneer like Wu Ning, but the boss said that there will be some interesting things in this auction, and it is worth letting an auctioneer like Wu Ning play a role in improving the product quality. s price.

The appearance of Wu Ning undoubtedly made the people present feel that there should be many surprises in this auction. After all, if such an auctioneer can come to sit in charge, things will not be too bad.

Wu Ning showed a clean smile, and brought the opening to the formal auction in a few words.

The first lot kicked off quickly.A domesticated fantasy Pegasus.

Although he had already seen the fantasy Pegasus when he auctioned the album, Gu Chen was still shocked when he saw the real thing at this moment. The wings, and the silver light around the wings.

The fantasy white horse belongs to the fifth-level beast. In fact, its level and attack power are very average, but it is a first-class choice as a mount.

Adult dreamy white horses are very difficult to catch, and it will cost a lot of money to raise young dreamy white horses, so such a beautiful adult dreamy white horse as the opening scene immediately attracted everyone's enthusiasm.

"A mount of this level is quite rare to come across. If you miss it, you won't have it. The starting price is 4000 million." Wu Ning said in a flat tone, without the chicken blood that Gu Chen imagined.

"6000."

"Sixty-five million"

"8000"

……

The price increase went on very quickly, and Gu Chen stopped eating snacks immediately. This kind of price felt very far away to Gu Chen. Originally, he had a small seven-figure pocket because of selling cards recently. The ranks of the winners in life, only now realize that the prices in this world are really unbearable.

Gu Chen, who realized that he was actually a poor dick, sighed, and continued to pick up snacks and watch the auction that had nothing to do with him.

The boy next to him was about to spit out a mouthful of blood. When the audience was so tense and excited, someone was actually eating snacks beside him!
