Chapter 44: Eternal Auction House
However, what Lu Yuelan did not expect was that she gave up the task of finding the engine and completing the assembly of the textile machine in a short period of time.
Xiaobing brought good news, saying that there was a place that would sell the engine blueprints that Lu Yuelan wanted, and asked Lu Yuelan if she wanted to go.
[Princess, please take a seat: Thank you, Xiaobing. Once I get the engine blueprints, I'll definitely treat you to a feast.]
Xiaobing from Yongjia Supermarket: You're welcome. I'm glad I could help you.
Although the other party said so, Lu Yuelan was not stupid and would definitely not take it seriously. She felt that there was no need to repay the other party's kindness. She was thinking about finding time to go to Yongjia Supermarket to give Xiaobing some mental counseling.
After receiving the news and invitation letter from Xiaobing about the auction to be held in three days, Lu Yuelan's idea became even stronger.
It is obvious that the other party can do the job, and you should also show the right attitude so that it will be convenient to ask others to do the job next time.
However, the auction house was too tight on time, with only three days left. Lu Yuelan was worried that her wallet would not be thick enough to grab the good stuff, so she did not go to Xiaobing first, and decided to focus on making money first.
Fortunately, Lu Yuelan was lucky. There were good things in the professional task potion gift packs on the last day of the novice period and the next two days. Although her wallet was still empty, she had enough capital to compete for the electric motor blueprint.
I guess this thing can appear in the third-level vehicle upgrade, and its value is not too high. It is just that the blueprint is convenient and precious.
The only regret is that during these three days, Lu Yuelan has not seen the two little babies Meng Yemo and Lang Tianya. I wonder what these two little cuties are doing recently. Don’t they come out to play?
Lu Yuelan didn't have time to play with the two little babies, so she had to keep this question in her heart and prepare for the auction.
"Sister, the auction house is almost over. Should we go there?"
"Well, whether I can wear a thick cotton-padded jacket today depends on whether I can successfully obtain the engine blueprints on this trip to the auction house."
As long as she can get it, Lu Yuelan can find someone or go to the garbage station again to find all the materials to make the engine.
I hope the journey goes smoothly and you don’t get stuck halfway.
Lu Yuelan could feel the temperature in the air dropping rapidly. The driving distance reported by the system every day was increasing little by little, and today it had reached 30 kilometers.
If things continue to develop at this rate, Lu Yuelan's vehicle level is not high enough and the speed is too slow. It may be difficult for her to even complete the basic task of driving the distance in a day, let alone do other things.
If the engine is not taken away, no matter how many materials Lu Yuelan has on hand, it will be useless and she will not be able to proceed to the next upgrade.
There are also problems with the collected resource boxes. They are all too high-level, and the probability of them dropping blueprints is higher than that of daily necessities. Lu Yuelan didn't even collect a decent cotton coat or trousers.
There were very few warm clothing items for sale online, and Lu Yuelan thought that the official national authorities had sold out all the items. She went to ask and found that she was overthinking it.
The official state determined that he did not receive many clothes, except for some relatively valuable blueprints. Actual warm items were all bought by a gang organized by three people: Tianwang Laozi Dazhi, Goddess Descends, and I Am the Winner in Life, using various means.
Even some people in the organization suffered, and the matter was reported to the national official. Only then did the national official know that the three people had been looting warm items without any bottom line since the beginning of the game. It was because everyone suddenly entered the game and was too panicked. They didn't react for a while, and many warm items were snatched away by the three people.
Thinking it was nothing important, they even robbed the other party back and did not report it to the official national authorities.
The three biggest gang members did not dare to cause trouble here, until the national official asked everyone about the warm clothing, they found out that their brothers and sisters were still being bullied.
Lu Yuelan remembered very clearly that the comments from the usually gentle national officials at that time were somewhat aggressive.
Later, I saw on the Internet that some of the most powerful people were shouting that the country had gone too far and that they had taken over the state machinery, so they just robbed the people of their things. Anyway, the situation was very chaotic during those few days.
The Internet is full of blood and gore.
Lu Yuelan was very glad that she reported the matter to the national authorities instead of foolishly going out to purchase the thermal insulation items herself. Otherwise, this turmoil would not be something a weak woman like her could withstand.
But it's strange how Wan Qingliang knew that the severe cold was coming and how he desperately collected warm clothes.
If Lu Yuelan discovered the clues in her district-wide announcement and special contribution awards, how did Wan Qingliang know about it? He discovered something was wrong on the first day, which made him even smarter than the national professionals. At least the national professionals only found out after Lu Yuelan reminded them.
"Sister, we're here."
"Okay, let's go down!"
Because the auction house allows vehicles to be deposited, guests can pick them up after they leave. Lu Yuelan doesn't have to worry about losing her vehicle, so she brings Xiaolan along.
After all, Lu Yuelan has been in this game for too short a time. Even with the Eye of Truth, she still doesn't understand some basic common sense.
In order to avoid the incidents that happened one after another in Yongjia Supermarket due to common sense issues and expose their identity as outsiders, Xiao Lan's presence is very important.
“This place is so big!”
As soon as Lu Yuelan entered the door, she saw that the auction house was ridiculously large. It felt as big as her entire city. She was secretly glad that she brought Xiaolan with her this time.
Otherwise, with her poor directionality, she would have been lucky not to find the private room Xiaobing had booked for her.
"Yes, sister. The Eternal Auction House is the largest auction house under the Meng family's name, covering an area of 7.88 million square kilometers. Normally, if there is nothing important to show off, they won't use this super building."
Lu Yuelan was secretly shocked. She still underestimated the financial strength of Mengmeng's family. No wonder Mengmeng said that as soon as she met Mengmeng, she would book a whole place for her and let her buy whatever she wanted. With such financial strength, she didn't have to worry about being eaten out and going bankrupt.
"This way, sister."
Xiao Lan pulled Lu Yuelan, who was distracted, and walked towards the box marked on the invitation letter.
In fact, for the sake of her sister's face, Xiao Lan did not tell her that the entrance ticket to the auction house was extremely expensive and not everyone could get in if they had money.
Status, connections, power, and wealth are all indispensable. Without any one of them, you can't even reach the door of the Eternal Auction House.
It’s useless to have a platform card. When you come here, you will be blocked outside and not allowed to come in.
It was because Lu Yuelan had a good relationship with Meng Yemo, the young master of the Meng family, that the invitation to the Eternal Auction House came about. When Xiaobing reported it to his master, Meng Yemo saw it and that's when he got it.
Otherwise, no matter how much Xiaobing wanted to please Lu Yuelan, he would not be able to take out such a valuable thing as the invitation to the Eternal Auction House. He could only find a way to help Lu Yuelan apply for engine procurement.
