Chapter 56

No one spoke in the KID room. Ji Qingfeng opened his eyes wide and checked the virtual screen in front of You Su to make sure that he was not hallucinating, but that 80 million was really being shouted out from their room.

"Brother, are you sure you didn't type two extra zeros because your hands were shaking when you raised the price?" Ji Qingfeng was confused. This was no longer a question of whether or not to raise the money. He said, "I admit that this is indeed a pretentious act, but do we have that much money?"

Lin Yao asked worriedly, "If we can't pay, will we be left here to work? Or will we be sold to an abandoned galaxy to work illegally?"

Ji Qingfeng reacted in a daze: "Does your small treasury really have so much money?"

You Su said in a light tone: "Your wife's capital is not needed."@

He explained simply, "S-level attack-type wind-attribute energy crystals are very rare. Ice-attribute attack-type energy crystals, which are of similar value, were sold for a high price of 85 million in the central galaxy of the Third Star Region. At that time, several people bid up to 70 million. In the end, three mecha bases competed for it, and it was sold to the mecha base in the Fourth Star Region."

"But this is 80 million!!! The central galaxy of the Third Star Region is a large galaxy, and the scale of the auction venue is several times larger than that of Sirius." Ji Qingfeng didn't know what to say for a moment: "That idiot 1468 only bid 50 million, and you raised it to 80 million all of a sudden. What if he doesn't have that much money? Wouldn't you just waste money? Can't we raise the price a little bit more?"

Lin Yao looked outside the venue and said worriedly, "No more bids for 1468."

The price of 80 million deterred many people in the auction hall.

Many mecha masters present expected an S-class attack-type energy crystal, but they did not expect it to be such a rare energy crystal.

Everyone was waiting for No. 1468 to bid again, but No. 1468 stopped.

Ying Chenlin suddenly said: "He won't continue."

The auctioneer shouted excitedly: "80 million for the third time! S-level Wind Chaser Crystal! Congratulations to VIP No. 5666!"

When the hammer sounded, Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao in the KID room looked blankly until the next item came up, as if they had seen tens of millions of star coins just floating away.

Ji Qingfeng's heart was bleeding: "Brother!! If you bid 80 million for me, I can save you 20 million! That No. 1468 is just bluffing!"

Ying Chenlin: "He is not bluffing. If it is slow, the price will go up."

Lin Yao didn’t understand: “Huh?”

You Su's eyes fell on the outside of the gauze curtain, and he continued, "Do you think that a person who can raise the price from 40 million to 50 million in one go, and who would spend 12 million to buy parts before the target item comes out, is someone who doesn't understand the goods?"

"Not only does the other party know the goods, but they also come prepared from other places."

Sirius’s auction house is a small one, and there is more than one auction house in the entire Star Alliance that can release S-level supernatural crystals.

And when Sirius has only released a preview, if someone bids at a price higher than the standard S-level supernatural crystal, it means that this person knows the goods and is well prepared.

Lin Yao asked in confusion: "Other places? How do you know he is from another place?"

Ying Chenlin understood You Su's idea and said, "It should be the room number. Someone who can easily come up with 50 million yuan can't possibly be ranked 1468 in this auction house."

The private room number they opened was opened using Ying Chenlin's VIP ticket.

At the Sirius Auction House, the higher the VIP level, the higher the number will be. This person can spend a lot of money, but the level of the private room he/she stays in is not the highest level.

This man is a veteran in auctions. He knows the goods well and is well prepared. In the early stages, he had been negotiating and bidding with others, trying to test the bidding details of others.

He raised the price by 10 million in the last breath, which means that in the other party's eyes, this supernatural crystal is worth a higher price, and he is very confident about the psychological transaction price.

"People who understand the goods know the value. Ideally, the money he prepares will not be less than the highest transaction price in history, but not much higher. If he has this capital, he could have competed in other more grand auctions long ago, and would not come to such an auction just based on a preview." You Su continued: "People who have a little money and move around because of a preview message show that they have a certain mentality of picking up bargains."

Simply put, the other party knows about goods and has money but not enough to compete in large auctions, so he comes from far away hoping to get a bargain.

If you bid against the other party little by little, it will be easier to bid higher if the other party is well prepared.

You Su said: "He has money and enough confidence, so he will continue to fight with me."

"But it was clear that he had no money."

Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. It was a staff member from the auction house.

Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao watched the staff come in and after talking to You Su for a few words, You Su signed neatly on the data pad handed over by the staff.

It was not until the staff left the private room that Ji Qingfeng and Lin Yao were convinced that there was a rich man among the four of them.

season

Qing Feng's eyes changed, "Brother, it turns out that you are not stubborn, but powerful."

Lin Yao nodded vigorously.

You Su: “…”

He saw the changes in the auction booths below the venue, "My auction is finished, isn't it time to pick up a bargain? The next batch of A-grade materials are priced well."

-

In private room 1468, the man looked towards private room 5666 with a gloomy face.

The man in gray tilted his head slightly to look at the man. The savings of the two of them together were about 100 million star coins. After coming here, they did some preliminary research and had already anticipated and investigated the threatening competitors here. Who knew that they would miss out on the supernatural crystal that they thought they had in their grasp.

"If you don't take a picture of that part, we can continue to add more, maybe we can..."

"It's impossible to take it down." The man looked outside sinisterly, and then his mind calmed down a little: "As long as we add more, the other party will continue to flip it up."

If the bid reaches 90 million, it will exceed the historical high price of special energy crystals. If he bids lower, it will exceed the original budget. The price of 80 million is just the bottom line of his inner transaction price.

Gray-robed man: "But you..."

The man suppressed his anger and said, "Don't forget, we still have the Gu family's part to take."

The man in gray had no choice but to give up.

"And with such a high price in a place like this, there's more than one person who wants to bid for the S-level supernatural crystal." The man looked confused and sneered, "It feels good to spend a lot of money, but it also offends some people."

Inside the venue, new items have been put on the stage, but most of the guests in the VIP room remember how No. 5666 spent a huge sum of money to buy the S-level Wind-Chasing Falcon Energy Crystal.

"Whose family is number 5666?"

"He seems to be an independent mecha master, not someone from the mecha base."

“The secondary private rooms may have come from far away for the auction.”

After the S-level supernatural crystal was sold off, the next items on the auction were A-level or S-level materials.

At this time, the auctioneer began to introduce the next lot: "The next lot to be auctioned is the A-grade red leopard claw bone. The starting price is 80,000, and each bid increase must be no less than 5,000!"

After the two competed, the highly anticipated No. 5666 suddenly made a bid.

The auctioneer said, "No. 5666 bids 100,000 yuan. Anyone else?"

No. 5666's action of bidding for the energy crystal at a high price was shocking, and many people in the venue became wary of No. 5666. In the following auction time, they paid more attention to No. 5666 and began to pay attention to the actions of this big shot.

But he had spent a huge amount of money to buy an S-level supernatural crystal, so why would he suddenly be interested in a small A-level material? Is there something special about this Grade A material?

Some people are afraid of No. 5666, while others have evil thoughts after seeing No. 5666's actions.

Malicious bidding often occurs in auctions, with some people even picking on the weak or raising prices maliciously, especially when it is confirmed that No. 5666 is a wealthy man. There are many people who want S-level supernatural crystals. When it comes to interests, they all set their sights on No. 5666. Since he is a rich man, it would be a pity not to cheat him.

"No. 5666 is not short of money. Just compete with him for a few rounds and raise the price directly."

"Red Leopard is about 250,000 yuan. Raise the price."

In another private room in the auction hall, the man watched No. 5666 start bidding on the red-haired leopard, and frowned slightly: "Is there anything special about this red-haired leopard?"

The other party is an expert on goods and knows the price of energy crystals, so there is no reason why he doesn't know the price of the Red Leopard.

The man in gray said, "He filmed it twice. It seems like he really wants to film this material, not just a sudden impulse."

"No. 6458 bids 120,000 yuan!"

"No. 7145 bids 140,000 yuan!"

"No. 5666 bids 170,000 yuan!"

…

"No. 6458 bids 250,000!"

An ordinary A-grade Red Leopard suddenly had new competition. Some people were looking for a bargain, while others wanted to deliberately raise the price. The ordinary A-grade red leopard material suddenly attracted a rush from many people.

In the KID private room, Ji Qingfeng followed the price twice. He originally thought that this thing would be the easiest to bid for, but he was dumbfounded when he saw this scene: "Are these people crazy? They are even grabbing the Red Leopard!?"

Lin Yao, who originally wanted to take advantage of the situation, asked, "Shouldn't we add Dafeng?"

Ji Qingfeng frowned and said, "Don't learn from Brother You. His money-squandering methods will eventually ruin his wife's money."

Theo asked, "You Su, have you saved enough money to get a wife?"

You Su: “…”

Ying Chenlin looked at it for a while and quoted a price: "This kind of red leopard material can be bought from merchants with a little effort, about 200,000 yuan."

Ji Qingfeng then said to Lin Yao, "As expected, there are so many bosses who are stupid and rich. They even bought the Red Leopard for 250,000 yuan. Yaobao, we can't learn from them. We are here to pick up bargains. Let's see the next one."

Unlike other lots, materials items have detailed descriptions in the listing.

Ying Chenlin flipped through the list of lots. He had studied A-grade materials for some time and knew the properties and prices of the materials very well. "The next red blood rock will only start at 100,000?"

"Aren't all red blood rocks 100,000 yuan?" Lin Yao asked.

"No, ordinary red blood rock is 100,000 yuan, but the red blood rock in the picture is light in color, and the surface of the rock is mottled and sinks to the bottom, which means that the rock was formed at least 500 years ago." Ying Chenlin explained carefully: "But I have experimented before, red blood rock is special, red blood rock over 500 years old is even better than some A-grade materials when making exterior panels. If you want to give a price based on the properties of the material, this red blood rock is worth at least 500,000 yuan!"

Ji Qingfeng was delighted when he heard this: "Isn't that a chance to pick up a bargain?"

Just when everyone thought that No. 5666 would bid again to raise the price of the red leopard, No. 5666 suddenly stopped.

The auctioneer struck the hammer three times and said, "Congratulations, No. 6458!"

No. 6458: “?”

Why did No. 5666 stop? Only 250,000! ?

In room 1468, the man frowned when he saw this scene. What on earth did room 5666 want to take pictures of?

The subsequent lots were sold very quickly, and the auctioneer moved on to the next lot [Red Blood Rock], and as a result, No. 5666 participated in the bidding again.

With the precedent of the red leopard, people who had no demand in the auction began to choose to wait and see. A material that originally started at 100,000 yuan was actually sold at 200,000 yuan by No. 5666.

Suddenly, other people in the auction didn’t understand the direction of the big boss No. 5666.

He suddenly became interested in all kinds of materials and participated in the competition for almost every A-grade material. The price he offered was erratic each time, sometimes he would raise the price high and sometimes he would withdraw from the market at a low price. Every bid and withdrawal was unexpected and incomprehensible.

"No, why did he retreat again!"

"I just raised the price, but he didn't want to buy it."

“You’re also filming this material?!”

"He bid 500,000 yuan for one last time, but he won't follow suit for this one, which is only 100,000 yuan?"

"What on earth does this guy want to film?"

In KID's private room, You Su took pictures of a few materials and stopped looking at the catalog. Instead, the other three people of KID gradually became addicted to researching materials and finding bargains.

Ying Chenlin stared at the auction catalogue, pointed at one of the items and said, "This is worth bidding on, the material is good, I can make a weapon cover for you after you bid for it."

Ji Qingfeng nodded when he heard this: "This low price is too high. It would be a loss to raise the price. Increase it by 20,000. No, no, no, increase it by 10,000."

Lin Yao sat on the virtual screen and typed, counting carefully each time he entered 0,000, listening to the discussion around him, and carefully entered 10,000.

As the opponent's moves and bids became more and more bizarre, the people on the field who were paying attention to No. 5666 became more cautious. Out of fear, they did not rashly join the competition.

When the S-level red rabbit toe bone came up, Ying Chenlin raised the price once and bought the material at a price lower than his original expected psychological price. When he got the materials, he looked out in surprise and said, "I think I got a bargain."

You Su lost interest in other materials. Hearing this, he said, "Isn't it a good thing to pick it up? Do you want to pay more?"

Ying Chenlin: "The normal price should be more than 2 million."

Ji Qingfeng: "Brother, when you lost 30 million, did you ever think that you might have extra money?"

Lin Yao: "Da Feng, Brother You is different from us, he is a strong man."

When the auction ended, people in the private rooms dispersed.

When the staff entered the KID private room, they saw several people wrapped tightly in front of them, and they felt a little more fearful.

After signing and paying, the storage device for the materials was placed on a gilded tray.

The senior manager smiled and gave Ying Chenlin a black card, saying respectfully, "Sir, this is our auction house's black gold V card."∞

Ying Chenlin took the black card and was stunned for a moment: "Thank you."

After the people left, Lin Yao picked up the storage device and asked, "Da Feng, will they take back the storage device that holds the materials?"

"How foolish! How could he take it back?" Ji Qingfeng took a closer look and saw the memory card with a bright black and gold material. "Oh my god, I've seen this memory card before. It costs 100,000 yuan. I've never used this kind of memory card in my life."

Lin Yao put the storage device away with satisfaction, "Then we made a profit."

It was not advisable to stay in the auction house for too long. After KID and his companions came out, they followed the empty corridor to the lobby of the auction house. Passing through the various reception rooms of the auction house, he stood outside waiting for people. When Jiang Simiao heard them say in the group that they had bid on a lot of things, he told them to wait at the auction house without saying anything and he would drive over right away.

Lin Yao asked: "Is Sanshui worried that we might be robbed while riding in the hovercraft?"

Ji Qingfeng: "Maybe, he just likes to worry about other things."

Ying Chenlin was standing nearby and suddenly noticed two people passing by not far away.

He stared at one of them for a while and saw the two men enter another corridor, which was the VIP reception room of the auction house.

"The one in gray walking behind should be from the Second Star Region."

A voice sounded beside him, Ying Chenlin tilted his head slightly and noticed You Su standing next to him.

Seeing that he was interested, You Su simply said, "I covered it up, but not completely."

He glanced at her, "What's the other thing you want to shoot?"

Ying Chenlin paused for a moment, and at this moment, a message from Shen Xingtang popped up on the computer.

He lowered his eyes slightly and replied, "I got it."

In the reception room of the auction house, the executive received two distinguished guests from room 1468. After settling the materials, he handed over the storage device to the other party.

But the other party asked him about the remaining items in the auction on the 8th in the next few days.

The man in the windbreaker was completely covered, with his hat and mask revealing nothing, except for his accent which had the usual Sirius charm.

The senior manager said, “Please wait a moment.”

He quickly sent someone to bring the latest auction catalog and handed it to the other party.

After the first day of the auction on the 8th ended, occasional customers would come to inquire about the subsequent items.

The auction house will naturally not be stingy in revealing these things. After all, information about the auction items is their main means of retaining VIP guests.

The man took the catalog and glanced at it, frowning, "That's all?"

The senior manager said: “Of course, this is the latest catalogue!”

The gray-clothed man next to him frowned and asked, "Why don't you have any S-level parts for auction in the next two days?"

The senior manager said, "Sir, S-class parts that appear at the auction are still relatively rare, and even fewer are valuable. The only S-class part we auctioned this time has been taken by you."

Where are Gu Xiaotian’s parts? Even if it is suppressed by KID, the auction house will not miss another opportunity to make money.

The man said, "Let's go."

The gray-clothed man was startled, and quickly followed his pace, "Didn't you say that Gu Xiaotian's parts were not lost?"

The man's tone became a little more stern: "Shen Xingtang has arranged everything. We have been tricked by KID!"

-

KID fully loaded

When they return, the pace of walking into the base is different.

If they didn't have a training plan tomorrow and needed to go to bed early, these people would have held on to the materials until tomorrow.

The happiest one was Theo. Who knew how many polluted areas he and Yousu had run to in order to find an offensive energy crystal? This time, they finally ran into one, and it turned out to be a wind-type attack crystal. On the way back, it kept chattering in Yousu's mind.

The last time he entered the base, You Su forced it to shut down.

Ying Chenlin returned to the maintenance room and put the materials of the Red Hare Beast into the storage device where he stored Yuan materials. When he was about to go to the warehouse after finishing the work, he saw You Su coming in from outside. He looked at the other person questioningly, and finally You Su threw over the storage device and the key.

You Su said: "I'll trouble you with the weapons."

Ying Chenlin held the thing steady, and his mental power subconsciously probed inside, noticing the S-level supernatural crystal inside, "It's no trouble, I promised you before..."

Halfway through his words, he asked, "Is there too much material in here?"

In addition to the S-level energy crystals, the storage device also contains some A-level and S-level materials, which is full to the point of being a small gold mountain.

Ying Chenlin was slightly startled: "It won't take that much to repair weapons."

"There are some reinforcement materials. I'd like to trouble you to check the overall performance of the weapons after the mecha is repaired." You Su noticed that Ying Chenlin lowered his head, as if looking at the materials inside. He added: "You can take any materials inside. Except for those used to repair the mecha, the rest are all considered as rewards."

Outside the door, Ji Qingfeng's voice came from afar, "Brother You, where are you? Sanshui said that the documents for the 16-to-8 match are out, and called us to a meeting."

You Su heard the voice, patted Ying Chenlin on the shoulder, turned around and left the maintenance room.

remuneration……?

Ying Chenlin looked at the small mountain of gold in the memory, then looked at Theo next to him. As expected, he spent more money than Yuan.

Theo finally turned the computer back on by himself, and as soon as he regained consciousness, he noticed the boy busy next to him. He had long been accustomed to it, and when You Su forced him to shut down the computer, he knew that he would be thrown into the maintenance room again.

The desk was wide, and it and the storage device were placed next to the boy. The outline of its original weapon was visible in the draft drawing that the other party was working on. It is much more difficult to design weapons using S-level supernatural crystals. During this period, it saw Ying Chenlin design several weapons, and the S-level supernatural crystals took the most time. At that time, Ying Chenlin spent several drafts on the S-level sand lizard's dual-attribute supernatural crystal.

Theo was itching to try it but didn't dare to rush, so he could only watch from the side.

It clearly mentioned to You Su that it wanted to make cool weapons, but You Su didn't say a word to Ying Chenlin.

Theo looked at Ying Chenlin's sketch in confusion, paying attention to the various drafts in it.

Suddenly, it saw another draft drawing sandwiched in the draft. The style was completely different from the ones it had seen before. It looked like a cannon weapon, but it was not entirely one. But it was certain that no one in KID had ever used a weapon of this style.

The position where Theo placed it was too far away. Just as it was about to take a closer look, Ying Chenlin turned the page and it landed on another page.

What kind of weapon… ?

Theo withdrew his gaze with regret. At this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something and hurriedly looked towards Ying Chenlin's neck.

I noticed that there seemed to be a faint light hidden under the clothes.

At this time, Shen Xingtang's communication application popped up and appeared on the light brain.

"Chen Lin? I have found some clues about the S-level parts you asked me to investigate at the auction house."

Ying Chenlin put down the work at hand and picked up the data pad. "Okay, I'll be right over."

Theo watched Ying Chenlin leave, his eyes following his back.

After the other party left, it turned around and began to check its own intelligence. It seemed to have captured the signal of Ying Chenlin's mecha just now.

It was just a moment, but the energy frequency of that signal seemed to be higher than A level.

The author has something to say:

I overestimated my typing speed during my period.

There are still a few words left for the additional chapter of Nutrient Solution, so please come and read it at 6 o'clock. (Slide and kneel to apologize)

200 red envelopes are dropped in this chapter.
