Being able to solve a problem is certainly a good thing.
So even though this matter was somewhat different from Gu Xi's plan, she was still very satisfied.
After the new smelting room was completed, Gu Xi hurriedly returned to his room to prepare for the auction.
Her biggest goal is to find a new suitable sea creature at today's regular auction.
Even though this sea monster is only B-rank, just like the octopus, it is still a very capable crew member who can help the octopus with some tasks.
In addition, she also planned to see if she could get information from the Sea Ghost about the Sea Ghost's declining favorability.
Gu Xi passed through the portal in the invitation and arrived at the auction venue. Because she had been delayed for a while, the auction had already begun when she arrived.
At that moment, the sea creature she had her eye on was being auctioned off below.
"Kiyma Beast, 800 gold coins."
Upon hearing the auctioneer's bid, Gu Xi didn't have time to acknowledge the Sea Ghost receptionist who came up to greet her before rushing straight to the bidding area.
She glanced at each bid increase and immediately used her mental power to announce the price.
"850 gold coins".
Normally, the Sea Ghost receptionist would provide the quote, but now that she had chosen to do it herself, the other deep-sea creatures in different compartments suddenly knew about parts of her compartment.
After announcing the first round of prices, Gu Xi returned to her seat. As soon as she settled down, the Sea Ghost receptionist floated over.
"Super, incomparable, and unparalleled guest, you've finally arrived!" The Sea Ghost receptionist was sparkling; it almost thought it was going to earn nothing from today's event.
Seeing that it didn't rattle off a bunch of rules or anything like that, Gu Xi felt much less flustered when she rushed over.
Hearing the continuous bidding outside, she knew that the Keima Beast wouldn't be sold for the time being.
"Hmm~ I was in a bit of a rush just now, I'll have to trouble you with the rest."
As he spoke, Gu Xi recounted the set of rules he often used at auctions.
The more the Sea Ghost receptionist listened, the brighter the lights shone.
"Okay, okay, I will be happy to serve you!"
The auction was left to Hai Youling; Gu Xi only needed to oversee the process. She then focused her attention on the bidding.
At this moment, the price of the Keima Beast was only 1,000 gold coins. After hearing the latest auction price, she couldn't help but think that compared with the mermaid she had bought before, this sea beast was too cheap.
"1050 gold coins," Gu Xi's Sea Ghost receptionist calmly quoted.
However, another Sea Ghost receptionist quickly raised the price: "1100 gold coins."
All other items have a maximum auction price set, but generally, there is no price cap on the items that Gu Xi wants.
Without any instructions from Gu Xi, the Sea Ghost receptionist turned to look at Gu Xi, awaiting her guidance.
Gu Xi sat in her seat and relayed a message to Hai Youling, "Continue, don't stop. If I think the price is too high, I will make you stop."
So the Sea Ghost host turned around and continued taking pictures.
Just then, the other party's voice came again.
"1100 gold coins".
The Sea Ghost receptionist quickly quoted a price: "1150 gold coins!"
And so, the price went up round after round, but Gu Xi remained calm. She was determined to get the Keima Beast, so she was very decisive in asking the Sea Ghost receptionist to raise the price.
Gradually, the calls for price increases decreased until only one person remained.
As the other side's Sea Ghost receptionist raised the price, Gu Xi's Sea Ghost receptionist immediately quoted 1500 gold coins.
"1500 gold coins for the first time."
"1500 gold coins, second time."
