Although it was a reprimand, it lacked any authority.
Lin Jingge felt no fear at all; on the contrary, she thought that Elder Hong and the departing Elder Hong were like old children.
With the person in front of her right in front of her, Lin Jingge pursed her lips and forced herself not to laugh.
She quickly followed Elder Hong into the backyard of the auction house.
The backyard and the front hall are quite different.
The front hall was magnificent and splendid, but the backyard was quite empty except for a few things placed there.
"Here, take that thing out and let me see it." Elder Hong led Lin Jingge to the center of the backyard.
There was nothing placed here; it was very empty.
Lin Jingge quickly put the things out.
Elder Hong observed it closely for a while, then covered it with his hand and used his spiritual power to examine it.
"This entire piece is going to be auctioned off?" Elder Hong withdrew his hand, glanced at Lin Jingge, and asked.
“Yes, I want to sell this whole piece.” Lin Jingge nodded.
She had considered selling them in smaller pieces, but cutting this grade seven black gold stone was too troublesome for someone like her who didn't have any tools.
If we sell them individually, who knows when we'll be able to sell them all?
She also has two altars in her space that are of lower quality, barely reaching the fifth rank, made of black gold stone. This is enough for her to use for refining weapons.
Therefore, taking out such a large piece doesn't bother me at all.
Elder Hong frowned: "If you auction the whole piece, I'm afraid you won't be able to sell it."
Black gold stone is the most spiritual of all minerals. Spirituality doesn't mean it has its own consciousness, but rather that magical artifacts made from this mineral, once bound to their owner, become more compatible, achieving a state where weapon and person become one, significantly boosting the user's combat power.
It is precisely this property that makes it an altar for so many corpses.
Although the Black Gold Stone has such an effect, others don't need so much of it unless it's sold to a clan, but why would those clans want something like the Black Gold Stone?
Lin Jingge understood this principle, but she was about to leave Nancheng.
"I'm leaving with the admissions office tomorrow, and I want to include this ore in tonight's auction." Lin Jingge not only didn't change her mind after hearing Elder Hong's words, but instead insisted on bringing forward the auction time.
If she can't sell it in advance, then she won't be able to sell it at all.
Elder Hong frowned, neither agreeing nor rejecting Lin Jingge's suggestion for a moment.
Lin Jingge pursed her lips, stepped forward, and put away the black gold stone: "Fine, I was being unreasonable. I'll leave now."
Xiao Shi had told Lin Jingge about the Black Gold Stone. After learning about its properties, especially when Xiao Shi told her that the newly acquired Black Gold Stone was a Grade 7, Lin Jingge thought she had struck it rich.
As a result, after the auction house's attitude, reality poured cold water on her, instantly shattering her get-rich-quick dreams.
Looking at the ring in Lin Jin's hand, he suddenly said meaningfully, "Your ring certainly has plenty of space..."
This sentence immediately put Lin Jingge on alert.
The old man's words seemed to be just a casual remark, and no further investigation was conducted.
"Alright, I didn't say I wouldn't agree. Leave the black gold mine here and go register it up ahead."
Watching Lin Jingge leave to register, Elder Hong shook his head and sighed inwardly at Lin Jingge's good fortune.
It's a coincidence that several items were missing from today's auction, so whether or not this black gold stone can be sold, it's just an extra bonus.
Lin Jingge filled out a form, which mainly contained some basic information and her desired price.
"What is this spirit card?" Lin Jingge asked, pointing to the payment method at the very end of the form.
"This is a unique trading method in the Cloud Cauldron Continent, guaranteed by the Cloud Cauldron Sect and the four major schools. The number displayed on this spirit card is the amount of spirit stones. There are exchange points at the gates of larger cities." The servant who received Lin Jingge took out a transparent card from his pocket and explained to Lin Jingge.
Lin Jingge glanced at the spirit card and realized that it was the same as the card she used to save money in her interstellar world.
It just adds a real-time function.
"So that's how it is." After getting the answer she wanted, Lin Jingge stopped talking, checked the last item on the list, and handed it to the servant.
With a flash of golden light, the information Lin Jingge had filled out earlier was entered into the book placed in front of the servant.
Then the servant took out a card with a serial number written on it.
"Your auction item has been registered, serial number twelve. You can check the relevant updates here." After saying that, he handed the card to Lin Jingge.
The auction wouldn't start until evening, so after taking the card, Lin Jingge didn't stay at the auction house and left directly.
[I didn't expect this auction house to be so advanced. Look at all these things, they're almost like something out of space.] Grandpa Cat and Little Knowledge exclaimed, lying on Lin Jingge's head.
"No, not really. In our interstellar era, a single quantum computer can solve everything. Why would we need these?" Lin Jingge toyed with the transparent card in her hand.
The card was made of some unknown material, and it was very lightweight.
Lin Jingge tried to use her divine sense to investigate, but could only discern some intricate patterns hidden on it.
Upon further investigation, Lin Jingge felt a sudden headache.
He immediately withdrew his divine sense.
This thing is too advanced; it's beyond her current capabilities. Lin Jingge sighed inwardly.
He then put the card away.
The evening auction was a great success.
Unlike the auction houses on the Azure Orchid Continent, the auctions on the Cloud Cauldron Continent do not begin until nightfall.
Because of Lin Jingge's status as a seller, entering the auction hall was very easy. Unlike the buyers, who not only had to register their assets but also pay money to gain entry.
After entering the hall, Lin Jingge casually found a place with a good view and sat down.
The auction hall is a three-dimensional inverted V shape, with the auction items displayed on a platform at the bottom, surrounded by concentric circles of seats for cultivation.
There are no private rooms here; the best seats are the few that are closest to the auction stage and become increasingly luxurious.
Lin Jingge's life was about to take a turn for the better.
People were already prohibited from entering the building when the auction was about to begin.
Lin Jingge was genuinely surprised to see the projection-like technology used by the other party.
"Oh my god, am I dreaming?!" Lin Jingge subconsciously pinched herself and muttered to herself.
Looking at that incredibly familiar projection technology, for a moment, Lin Jingge felt as if she had returned to her own era.
"Sister, is this your first time at an auction?" The woman next to Lin Jingge chuckled and leaned closer to Lin Jingge.
Lin Jingge then looked up at her.
"Yes, this is indeed my first time here."
