Yu Xuan was completely bewildered when he entered the Micro Realm. Of course, everyone is bewildered when they first enter the Micro Realm, but no one is as bewildered as Yu Xuan.
It only took half an hour to explain the existence of the micro-world to him, and then the auction began.
As expected, Yun Hu joined in and bid on behalf of Old Master Yun.
There weren't many people participating in the auction: Guo Zifeng, Yun Hu, Grandpa Xing Tu, and Yan Su.
Grandpa Xing Tu is also very wealthy, and he has nowhere to spend his money. His children live a worry-free life, and he doesn't want to leave his money behind. He uses what he can and donates what he can't use.
Among the group, Yan Su was clearly the poorest. Although he held great power, his salary was meager. If it weren't for his good benefits and successful children, he wouldn't have dared to participate in the bidding.
When Yu Xuan heard that the starting bid for his sculpture was 50,000 yuan, he was completely stunned.
“No, my sculpture isn’t worth much. I’d sell it for 5,000 yuan and nobody would want it,” he quickly said.
Now everyone else knew why he was so poor.
That's too honest. Forget about doing business, he'd probably still be helping the other person count their money even if he got scammed.
“Brother Yu Xuan, you underestimate yourself. That wooden horse you sold to Chen Yang for 5,000. If it were in my hands, I wouldn’t sell it.” Guo Zifeng said.
Yu Xuan was taken aback, then looked at Chen Yang.
Chen Yang laughed and said, "Don't look at me, I'm not going to return this."
"No, no, I was wondering, boss, did you really appreciate my work before you bought it, or were you just pitying me?"
“If it were just out of pity, I wouldn’t have spent 5,000. No one in the world can compare to my eyesight. Although I don’t know much about woodworking, your carving is very detailed, and I can see it more clearly than others.”
"Alright, alright, enough talk, let's begin the auction."
"Grandpa Xing Tu urged impatiently."
They had all seen the photos and were quite impressed with Yu Xuan's craftsmanship. They were now eager to take pictures of the actual product to take home and admire it, so they could show it off to their old friends.
The reason they wanted this wood carving so much was because it was Yu Xuan's most prized work to date.
A master sculptor may only have a few masterpieces in his lifetime, and he will have different insights at each stage. Although Yu Xuan's skills are not yet those of a master, this work will still be very important to him even decades from now.
Chen Yang presided over this auction, which was not very competitive, and the auction process was not very intense.
There are only four people in total, including Yan Su, who is just cannon fodder. How can this be exciting?
Ultimately, Yun Hu won the bid for the sculpture, with a transaction price of 150,000 yuan.
"I'll transfer the money to you after I log out, and I'll drive to pick up the goods tomorrow, is that okay?"
Yu Xuan nodded blankly and said, "Okay, I just paid the rent to the landlord and redeemed the wood carving."
He still found it hard to believe.
150,000 is already the price some renowned veteran carpenters charge, and they use the best wood. Although the wood he used was also very good, and he bought it at a great expense, is it really worth 150,000?
"Um, sir, how about you give me 50,000 yuan?" Yu Xuan said in a low voice. He was completely stunned and hadn't even remembered Yun Hu's name.
"It's alright, this is a gift for my dad. How could I accept something worth 50,000?" Yun Hu said, then immediately looked at Old Master Yun with a fawning expression: "Right, Dad? I didn't waste money this time."
Grandpa Yun glanced at him and said, "Although it's not cheap, this young man's carving skills are really good, it's worth the price. Young man, you can keep the money without worry. If you feel you owe me anything, then teach me how to carve. This old man is quite interested in carving."
"Okay, no problem." Yu Xuan nodded quickly.
Thus, Yu Xuan's entry auction came to an end, and Yu Xuan officially became a member of the Micro World.
He joined the camp construction team, and his main job was to beautify the camp.
Most of the buildings in the camp are made of wood, so Yu Xuan can fully utilize his carving skills and even carve some pieces to display in the camp.
"Yu Xuan, you're coming hunting with me today. Don't forget, you still owe me a sculpture. Looking at it now, you've really lost out," Chen Yang laughed.
Chen Yang bought a sculpture for 5,000 yuan, and then exchanged two nights' accommodation at the Micro World Inn for a custom-made wood carving. Looking at it this way, he really made a great deal.
But Yu Xuan knew that without Chen Yang, he might not even be able to sell his wood carving for five hundred yuan, let alone that Chen Yang had made him a citizen of the Micro Realm. Yu Xuan would remember this kindness for the rest of his life.
He went hunting with Chen Yang and Ou Huang. Actually, he mainly watched Ou Huang hunt.
"Good luck, perform well, there will be a reward."
Chen Yang patted the head of the lucky one and said.
The lucky one didn't know it was now the prototype model for a wood carving, but it understood the word "reward," so it got excited.
It followed the scent of its prey, with Chen Yang and Yu Xuan trailing behind.
Yu Xuan hadn't learned to ride a horse yet, so the two grown men had to squeeze onto one horse.
Speaking of horses, Chen Yang's horse, Night Wind, is still unyielding and refuses to let anyone ride it.
However, it couldn't do anything about Sanpang. Sanpang had mastered unparalleled riding skills. No matter how the night wind moved, Sanpang always sat on its back, as still as... a mountain of flesh!
The European king quickly found its first prey, a wild duck resting in the grass by the stream.
The European Emperor lurked, slowly approaching, like a seasoned hunter, silently concealing his murderous intent.
It pounced suddenly, biting the wild duck's neck and killing it instantly.
Chen Yang went over to take a look and found a nest of duck eggs in the grass, which he took.
"What breed is your dog? It's amazing!" Yu Xuan exclaimed.
"A Chinese rural dog," Chen Yang joked.
Yu Xuan was taken aback, then wondered why the Chinese rural dogs he had encountered before were not this powerful.
"European Emperor, find someone even more powerful," Chen Yang said to European Emperor, gesturing briefly as he did so. European Emperor immediately understood.
It continued to sniff around, searching for prey.
Where there is water, it is a natural habitat for creatures, and the European king quickly found its prey.
Its challenge was actually a tiger, and an adult tiger at that.
Yu Xuan was dumbfounded and instinctively wanted to run away.
This is a tiger! A normal person's reaction to encountering a tiger would be to run away, not to rush in like Wu Song (a legendary hero known for his bravery and courage).
Undeterred, the European Emperor barked defiantly at the tiger.
Chen Yang had already drawn his throwing knife as a precaution; he hadn't expected to encounter a tiger. Even though the Lucky One was incredibly powerful, he couldn't claim he could reliably defeat a fully grown tiger, one of the top predators on Earth.
