Yang Dingtian couldn't help but be surprised. Even something like Bloody Black Gold could be sold on consignment?
"What's the difference?" Yang Dingtian asked.
"If it's auctioned, if you're lucky, you can sell it for 80,000 gold coins, but we'll take a 10% commission.
If you sell it on consignment, you can sell it for 70,000 gold coins, but we'll take a 5% commission.
If you sell it to us directly, you can sell it for 60,000 gold coins. "The second level manager said.
"So expensive?" Yang Dingtian was surprised, "Wasn't it around 50,000 gold coins before?"
"Recently, the demand for Bloody Black Gold has increased a lot." The second level manager said, "Which transaction would you like to make?"
"I don't want to go through the trouble. I'll sell it to you directly." Yang Dingtian said.
The second level manager was overjoyed. This was because Yang Dingtian's transaction was enough to give him a commission of over a thousand gold coins.
Even the beautiful maid behind him had bright eyes. This transaction was enough to give her a commission of over a hundred gold coins, which was half a year's salary.
"Zhenzhen will accompany the honored guest here. I'll immediately go through the relevant procedures." The second level manager said.
Following this, the pretty girl called Zhenzhen was incomparably enthusiastic. She was completely throwing flirtatious glances at Yang Dingtian. From time to time, she would take the opportunity to rub her delicate breasts against Yang Dingtian's arm.
Even though this was a business of the Tiandō League, they had nothing to do with the Tiandō League. They were just hired commoners.
Yang Dingtian really didn't expect that he would be treated like a boss here.
Soon, the second level manager brought over a stack of thin crystal cards.
There were three notes worth ten thousand gold coins, five notes worth five thousand gold coins, and the rest were worth one thousand gold coins.
Yang Dingtian carefully examined these thin crystal cards. He found that the stripes on the cards were more complicated than the banknotes on Earth. Moreover, they had a special energy, so there was no possibility of counterfeiting them.
These crystal cards were equivalent to the currency of this world. They were issued by the Tiandō League.
Now, Yang Dingtian had a deeper understanding of the Tiandō League.
If there was a political power in this world, then the Tiandō League would be the highest political power in this world.
Normal gold and silver coins could be produced and distributed by Cloud Sky City and other forces, but large crystal cards could only be distributed by the Tiandō League.
Since the Yin Sect was in seclusion, the Yin-Yang school and the Black Heaven Sect had the final say in the Tiandō League.
Therefore, Dongfang Bingling could be said to be the most powerful person in the world.
*****
After selling the Bloody Black Gold, Yang Dingtian went to the big store.
"I need ten fourth-grade Fire Soul Crystals, the fresh blood of a fifth-grade fire-type demonic beast, ten stalks of Heavenslaying Grass, and three taels of Devilfire Stalactite!"
The shopkeeper's eyes suddenly lit up. It was another big business. He must have known that he was going to undergo the fourth stage of Marrow Cleansing and Meridians Cleansing. However, it was really strange. Generally, those who were able to undergo the fourth stage of Marrow Cleansing and Meridians Cleansing were disciples of medium to large forces. They could completely do it at home. Very few people would come to the auction house to buy materials directly. However, this had nothing to do with him. He only cared about making money.
"Yes, yes, please wait a moment," the shopkeeper said.
"How much?" Yang Dingtian asked.
"A total of ninety thousand gold coins," the shopkeeper said.
Master Dongfang Minmie said eighty thousand, but in reality, it was ninety thousand. It seemed that there was a certain amount of inflation in this world.
"I don't have enough money on me. Prepare the items. Once I have enough money, I will immediately come and collect them," Yang Dingtian said.
The shopkeeper's smile didn't change. He nodded and said, "Yes!"
Then, Yang Dingtian said, "I want to sell a Beast Soul Elixir. How should I do it?"
The shopkeeper's breathing stagnated. He said with a trembling voice, "May I ask what grade the Beast Soul Elixir is?"
"Sixth-grade," Yang Dingtian said.
The shopkeeper's gaze trembled. He then bowed and said, "I don't have the authority to carry out this transaction. Please wait a moment. I will invite our head shopkeeper to discuss with you. Please follow me to the VIP room."
Then, the shopkeeper led Yang Dingtian to a luxurious VIP room.
Inside, there were two maids. They were both beautiful young girls in brocade clothes. They were so respectful that they didn't even make a sound when they walked.
After a few minutes, the door of the VIP room was opened. A great beauty in a purple dress walked in.
She was very tall, not shorter than Yang Dingtian. Her figure was also very good, not at all inferior to the Victoria's Secret supermodels on Earth.
Moreover, the long dress she wore was somewhat of a uniform. It was similar to the cheongsam on Earth. The slit was very high.
She looked very attractive as she walked.
"I am the fifth shopkeeper of this auction house, Su Mei. I heard that Sir has a sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir for auction?" the woman said.
"That's right," Yang Dingtian took out the sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir and said, "May I ask, how much is it?"
"The lowest is five hundred thousand gold coins. The highest is one and a half million gold coins, or even more," Su Mei said.
"Why is there such a big difference?" Yang Dingtian was shocked.
"Sir, you must be joking. There are differences in sixth-grade as well.
The higher the level of the Beast Soul Elixir, the harder it is to increase its level.
Therefore, the price of a sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir is many times higher than that of a sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir. "
Su Mei said, "Please wait for a moment. I will ask our Beast Speaker to evaluate your Beast Soul Elixir. Then, I will give you the specific price."
"Okay," Yang Dingtian said.
After a few minutes, the Beast Speaker arrived.
He was so old that one couldn't tell his age. He was completely skinny. He was at least eighty or ninety years old.
This kind of person could be called the treasure of the auction house.
"Senior Ning, please take a look at this sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir," Su Mei said respectfully, even though she was the fifth shopkeeper.
The Beast Speaker didn't say anything after he came in. He directly took the Beast Soul Elixir, closed his eyes slightly, and used his mind to sense it.
Suddenly, the charming Su Mei held her breath.
The entire VIP room suddenly became very quiet.
Suddenly, the Beast Speaker's facial muscles trembled. He showed an expression of disbelief. Then, he quickly calmed down.
After a few minutes, the Beast Speaker slowly opened his turbid and withered eyes.
"Senior Ning, what level is this sixth-grade Beast Soul Elixir?" Su Mei asked.
"Sixth-grade level one," the Beast Speaker said.
Yang Dingtian was a little disappointed. However, it could be sold for 500,000 gold coins, which was not a small amount.
It was enough to buy the materials for marrow and meridian cleansing. However, the materials for ice and thunder talismans were a little lacking.
"However, its potential can reach eighth-grade level eight," the Beast Speaker said.
"What?" Su Mei exclaimed and looked at Yang Dingtian in disbelief.
Potential meant that this Beast Soul Elixir still had room for improvement. It could continue to be refined. The highest level it could reach was eighth-grade level eight.
An eighth-grade level eight Beast Soul Elixir was already very scary. It could be used to subdue a Martial Soul of a Master Realm beast.
In this way, it was a sky-high price.
Ningning's talent was really amazing. She could actually refine a Beast Soul Elixir with eighth-grade potential.
"Senior Ning, how much is this Beast Soul Elixir worth?" Su Mei asked.
"I don't know."
The Beast Speaker said, "Because no one will take out a Beast Soul Elixir of this level to sell directly. How much it is worth depends on how much the person who wants it is willing to pay. This kind of thing can only be auctioned."
Su Mei's beautiful eyes suddenly brightened. She said, "That's great. In tomorrow's auction, we have the finale item, but we still lack a few important treasures."
Then, Su Mei said, "Mr. Shen, are you willing to put this Beast Soul Elixir in tomorrow's auction?"
"Yes, may I ask if there are any important treasures in tomorrow's auction?"
Yang Dingtian asked. He felt a little strange. Since his Beast Soul Elixir was so expensive and it was not the finale item, then what was the finale item?
"What does Mr. Shen need?" Su Mei asked.
"Weapons and Magic Skill Manuals," Yang Dingtian said.
Yang Dingtian only knew one Magic Skill now, which was the thunder Magic Skill, Devil Sky Split.
However, this Magic Skill could not be used most of the time. Because as long as he used the thunder Magic Skill, people would think of the Hidden Sect's disciple, Wu Ming.
So unless it was a last resort, Yang Dingtian would never use the thunder Magic Skill. Once he used it, he must kill the opponent. He must not let a second person live to see it.
So, Yang Dingtian really needed a powerful Magic Skill.
As for the weapon, first of all, Ah Chou's youngling sword was in a deep slumber. Yang Dingtian could not go without a weapon.
Secondly, Yang Dingtian was playing the role of Shen Lang now. He was a wanderer who traveled the world. So, he needed a completely different weapon.
Most importantly, Yang Dingtian wanted to use Shen Lang's identity to sneak into the Northwest Qin City and find a way to obtain the other half of the Heaven and Earth Obsidian Flame's map. So, this weapon had to be powerful enough.
"There is an eighth grade Magic Skill Manual, Devil Flame Saber Art!" Su Mei said, "But, that is the finale item. There will be a lot of people fighting for it."
Eighth grade Magic Skill?!
Yang Dingtian's heart jumped fiercely. Instantly, he felt like he was going to suffocate.
In this world, Magic Skills and Martial Skill Scrolls were completely different. They were completely unique.
All high grade Magic Skills were left behind from the ancient world. It could be said that one scroll after learning it was one scroll less.
Sixth grade Magic Skills were already extremely expensive. Not to mention eighth grade Magic Skills!
The auction house used this eighth grade Magic Skill Manual as the finale item and did not choose Yang Dingtian's potential eighth grade Beast Soul Elixir. This meant that the price of this eighth grade Magic Skill Manual would be even higher.
In the end, it would definitely be extremely expensive!
Yang Dingtian really did not have the confidence to snatch this manual. He did not even have enough money.
His money came completely from auctioning the potential eighth grade Beast Soul Elixir.
Moreover, with his strength, even if he managed to snatch this eighth grade Magic Skill Manual, it would be very difficult to keep it.
As long as he left the auction house, it was very likely that it would be snatched away by others.
"Mister Chen, are you worried about your safety?" Su Mei asked.
Yang Dingtian nodded.
"Then you can rest assured. Tomorrow's auction will be completely anonymous. No one will know who will obtain the auction item in the end."
Su Mei said, "Moreover, for tomorrow's auction, the Tiandō League will send four Grandmasters to oversee it. No one will dare to act recklessly.
Moreover, our auctions have never had any accidents. "
"If that's the case, then I can rest assured."
Yang Dingtian said, "Then according to your estimation, will the money I earned from auctioning this potential eighth grade Beast Soul Elixir be enough to buy that eighth grade Magic Skill Manual?"
"It shouldn't be enough. It might be far from enough. After all, this eighth grade Magic Skill Manual is really too precious." Su Mei carefully worded her words.
