After leaving the lord's manor and turning a corner, they arrived at the auction house. Qiu Yu skillfully led everyone into a VIP room, and the various gazes along the way finally disappeared.
"I'll stay here, you can go do your thing! Just handle the rest as I arranged before. I'll finish the newcomer trial in a week at most, and I'll leave the rest to you!" Si Meng said.
Wen Tianzong couldn't stay inside the Hou's belly forever. At most, he would stay for a few days. After they went to the Dark Origin Land, their newcomer trial would be considered complete, and the trial would officially end.
There is a much wider world waiting for them outside, and the Duobao Trading Network needs to be developed as soon as possible. Presumably, because of the lord who was killed when they landed on the island, bad news has already spread outside. If they delay too long, even if they can save Wen Tianzong's life, they will not have time to make arrangements.
"Okay! I understand! I will definitely handle things here properly!" Qiu Yu nodded. Since Si Meng was leaving, she naturally had to finish arranging things here. She was Si Meng's successor in the trial space.
"Well, don't forget about the Duobao Trading Network either. Once we get out, if there's a chance, I'll definitely take you with me!" Si Meng continued. Qiu Yu was basically a slave to the Wanwu Tower, just like her. If she could leave, she would naturally take her little sister with her.
Moreover, whether it's out of affection or to manage subordinates, you have to give them something to look forward to, right? Otherwise, who will work wholeheartedly for you?
"Don't worry, I've noted it all down. Duobao Trading Network will only do promotions and some self-operated transactions. All other personal trading will be suspended!" Qiu Yu nodded and said. This was also part of Ye Chen's plan.
Duobao Trading Network is similar to Taobao in the previous life, but it also has some differences because it requires human monitoring of the transaction process. Without the goblins' inspection, no one can guarantee the fairness and impartiality of the transactions. Ye Chen and the others did not want to ruin Duobao Trading Network's reputation after they left.
As for having Qiu Yu find another group of low-level races to operate the Duobao Trading Network, that's unrealistic. Few races have the same strong reproductive ability as goblins, and no race is as obsessed with money as goblins, except for dragons!
However, given the dragons' low reproductive rate and tendency to sleep, it would probably take them tens of thousands of years to complete a single transaction.
"By the way, this is today's transaction list. I've also included the hundred sets of goblin armor you mentioned earlier in today's auction. However, due to time constraints, there probably won't be enough time to promote it!" Qiu Yu continued, while handing several booklets to the four of them.
"It's alright, you know that stuff, it sells for a fortune without any promotion!" The fat man waved his hand dismissively and picked up the booklet in his hand to read it.
"That's true. Then I won't bother you any longer. I'll go and get back to work!" Qiu Yu nodded with a smile. To be honest, even she was a little tempted by the power of the goblin armor.
Her clan is just an elf race, and the strongest one has only grown to the 3rd rank. A 4th rank elf king needs many special conditions to grow, and it is not so easy.
If she could acquire this batch of goblin armor, it would greatly help improve her own strength. However, as the organizer, she was destined not to participate in today's auction.
Fortunately, Si Meng had seen through her thoughts and promised to leave her a hundred sets before leaving, which was her biggest motivation to perform well these days.
"Your subordinate seems quite capable?" Ye Chen said with a faint smile after Qiu Yu left.
"What? Interested? How about I give you their contact information? But if you're going to keep a second wife, shouldn't you ask Mengyi's opinion first?" Si Meng teased, and Ye Chen's face immediately darkened.
"What are you thinking? I was just praising your management skills, and you managed to find a loophole in that!" Ye Chen said with a helpless smile, ignoring the two women who were laughing so unceremoniously, and turned to look at the auction catalog in his hand.
Compared to the earliest auction held by Wanwu Tower, the quality of this auction is much better. Not to mention anything else, there are two rare bloodline crystals that appeared last time, not to mention other precious items.
"Hey! Brother Chen, it's a dwarf bloodline crystal! Can your land god and mountain god replenish people now?" the fat man shouted excitedly, pointing at one of the bloodline crystals.
Two bloodline crystals, one from a gray iron dwarf and one from a void elf. The latter, though rare, wasn't of much use to Ye Chen. But the gray iron dwarf was different. The fat man clearly remembered that the land and mountain gods were recruited using the gray iron dwarf's bloodline crystal.
"Hmm! Gray Iron Dwarf, but if possible, it would definitely be best to get both!" Ye Chen nodded, looking at the two bloodline crystals with great interest. These things could allow him to awaken more Primordial Families, which would greatly enhance his strength.
"That might be a bit difficult. Those who participate in this kind of auction are generally quite wealthy, especially in such a rich place outside the Dark Origin Land. If we really want to acquire these two bloodline crystals, we'll probably have to spend a lot of money!"
"Don't be fooled by the fact that a million Tier 4 magic crystals seem like a lot. Which of those prodigies and lords doesn't have hundreds of thousands of them on hand? If they're lucky, they can win a few big matches in the arena and their total assets will easily exceed a million!"
Si Meng looked at Ye Chen and the fat man and said something that immediately poured cold water on their burning enthusiasm.
"Wow! That's damn rich! But we're not afraid, Duobao Trading Network has made a lot of money in the past few months!" The fat man gasped, but still patted his chest and said.
"That's why I didn't say you couldn't afford it. It's just that if you really want it, you'll have to spend a lot of money!" Si Meng pouted, as if she was talking about someone who didn't have money.
"We'll see how things go later! I see there are quite a few good things on this list besides bloodline crystals, and you even managed to get your hands on the life essence. It seems we'll have to bleed a lot today!" Ye Chen said with a wry smile, looking at the list in his hand.
Bloodline crystals, life essence... these things are indeed produced much more frequently in the trial space than outside, and the prices are also much cheaper. But that doesn't mean they have enough money. Compared to those lords who give up development and focus on making money, their assets are not that much.
"Oh dear~~~ My poor little money! You've left me just like that~~~" The fat man grabbed a handful of magic crystals and held them in his hand, saying with a heavy heart.
