Time Travel: Sales Master

Chapter 8 There are so many

When the host announced the price of one million gold coins, there was silence for a long time and no one raised a sign.

The four major families didn't seem to have any intention of taking action. Su Xing was stunned for a moment. What was going on?

The reason is simple. This is the dungeon city of Zaun. The flying belts are not very useful. Most people here are cyborgs with semi-mechanical bodies. Their jumping ability is not a problem. Many cyborgs can fly. As for the four major families not taking action, it is obvious that they are not interested. It is estimated that their families have more advanced imitations.

More importantly, the belt was sold so cheaply, it was likely to be defective. "One million and one gold coins!"

Suddenly, a voice rang out in the hall. Su Xing almost strangled the little yellow-haired guy beside him. That's right, it was this little yellow-haired guy who made the offer!

This guy is too stingy. He only added one gold coin. How embarrassing! "One million and one gold coins?"

The female host was stunned. It was the first time she had encountered such an offer. He bought something worth one million yuan without hesitation. It seemed that he was very wealthy, but just for a gold coin?

"What are you looking at? No one wants it anyway." EZ said calmly. "One million and two gold coins!" Su Xing also raised the price.

"You black-hearted businessman, you dare to compete with me for such a small thing?" "One million and three gold coins!" "One million and four gold coins!" "One million and five gold coins!" "One million and fifty-eight gold coins!"

The two men were bidding fiercely, and almost everyone on and off the stage was yawning. These two men seemed to be here together. Is it worth it for one or two gold coins? Zaun City has never seen such a calculative person. "Forget it, forget it. I'll give it to you."

Finally, EZ, with a dry mouth, chose to give up. EZ could teleport, so this belt was of little use to him. He just wanted to sell it in Piltover to make a fortune. "Congratulations to VIP No. 123, for one million...how much was it?"

The female host was stunned. This was a rare case in her long career as an auctioneer. "Successfully won the bid for 1 million and 58 gold coins!"

Fortunately, the belt was sold. It was defective, otherwise how could a newbie get such a good deal? I'm afraid it would be scrapped after just a few uses.

Su Xing walked up to the stage slowly, without covering his face, and walked up with big strides. Hundreds of hostile eyes focused on Su Xing on the stage, and his appearance was deeply engraved in their hearts. Some people looked at Su Xing with sympathy. Why spend one million to buy a broken belt, and maybe even a life?

Su Xing didn't care about other people's eyes at all, and walked straight to his seat and sat down. The little yellow-haired boy hurriedly distanced himself from him. "Are you stupid? You've been bidding for so long, and others don't know that you are worth millions? Why are you hiding!"

Su Xing reminded him bluntly. EZ was shocked, and then he really felt a lot of eyes on him. "Oh, I shouldn't have bid earlier." EZ complained.

"Damn you, you made me spend 58 gold coins more. You're treating me to dinner!"

Su Xing never expected that he paid the entrance fee for the other party, but this guy would snatch things from him? Then a few more items were auctioned, but Su Xing was not interested in any of them. There were all kinds of things, such as treasure fragments, strange weapons, and even mechanical prostheses. Su Xing didn't care about these, but the little yellow-haired boy bought another treasure fragment.

As an explorer, he can tell whether a treasure map is real or fake, but what about fragments! The most interesting thing is that there is actually a bottle of life potion auctioned, and it was finally bought by the Frost family. Su Xing certainly knows who this thing is useful to. Camille's brother Stevan is about to die, and he wants to prolong his life. This life potion can let him live a few more days, and it was finally sold for 3 million yuan. "Now we come to today's finale auction item!"

"I'm sure most people have already guessed what it is."

As soon as the host finished speaking, several beautiful models came on stage again. Four of them carried a wooden tray about one meter square, on which were placed more than a dozen white transparent crystals. "Mother and Child Crystals!"

“There are so many!”

The people on the field became excited. How many sound transmission stones could be made with so many mother and child crystals? Su Xing's expression also changed. Looking at the number, it was enough for him to use! But what surprised him was that among the eleven mother and child crystals, one was particularly large.

"It seems everyone knows what this is."

"But the mother and child crystals being auctioned today are different."

After saying that, the female host picked up the largest crystal. "This is the crystal that condensed after the death of the Thunder Sound Beast King."

"Everyone should know that the Thunder Sound Beasts are matriarchal creatures, and each Thunder Sound Beast group only has one adult female."

"So, all the Thunder Sound Beasts in this tribe are related to this Beast King by blood!"

"And these ten sub-crystals can resonate with this mother crystal!"

At this point, the crowd began to discuss quietly. "It doesn't seem cost-effective. Why not make five pairs of sound transmission stones?"

"Indeed, the sub-stones cannot communicate directly with each other, they can only interact with the mother stone. If you can get five pairs, you can sell them separately, which is really a good investment."

"Don't be too greedy. At first I thought it was just a pair, but it turned out to be a full set!"

"Even if you have a hundred pairs, and the four great families are here, can you snatch them away?"

"Let's just be bystanders."

That’s right, if this thing appeared in a place like Zaun, the locals might not be able to afford it. If Viktor and Jayce didn’t come, I’m afraid few people in Zaun could afford it.

"This set of mother and child crystals will definitely be very convenient for the four major families to use."

The hostess smiled and looked towards the VIP area in the back row. Indeed, it was most appropriate for the patriarch of a family to use such tools. Ordinary adventurers had no need or ability to buy them, and even if they did, they wouldn't use so many.

The host's implication is very clear, it depends on how much money the four major wealthy families are willing to pay for this set of crystals, so others should stop dreaming.

"The starting price is 10 million gold coins. Bidding begins now!"

"Eleven million!"

"Thirteen million!"

"Thirteen million and a half!"

Although this is a complete set of mother and child crystals, the starting price of 10 million is indeed cheap. Many people who want to get a bargain saw that the four major families had not made any moves and started bidding.

Su Xing was not in a hurry. Colin gave a reference price of more than 20 million for a pair. He was not sure about the price of the set in front of him, but he was determined to buy it! "Alas, something that is even worse than a mobile phone is so expensive." Su Xing thought helplessly.

On Earth, one gold coin is enough to buy a mobile phone, but this is not the case in Runeterra.

Without satellites, it is not easy to have the ability to make calls. Instant messaging is key in both the battlefield and the business world. Earthlings are used to mobile phones and may think it is no big deal. But in a world without mobile phones and telephones, it is too difficult to contact people far away.

Su Xing does not underestimate the technology of Rune Continent. On the contrary, many technologies are beyond the reach of Earth, such as the perfect fusion of machinery and the human body, and energy sources such as Hextech crystals.

All we can say is that the technological development directions of the two worlds are different.

Finally, a quote came from the VIP room.

This made all the guests in the audience stop bidding immediately, because everyone knew that the people in the VIP room were not to be trifled with! "Twenty-five million!"

“30 million yuan!”

“Thirty-one million!”

Three of the four wealthy families are bidding frantically, but the family on the far left remains silent, seemingly not interested in this thing?

It's no secret that the person in that VIP room is none other than the actual controller of Piltover - the Ferros Family!

The Firoz family did not participate, so the other three families had a chance. The price climbed all the way to 40 million, and the other two families became silent, as if they were weighing the pros and cons.

“Forty-one million.”

Suddenly, an old but majestic voice came from the box of the Philos family.

Although the voice is old, it is full of dominance and has a kingly style.

"It's over!"

The three great families secretly thought that it was not good. With the intervention of the Philos family, the ownership of the mother and child crystals was no longer in doubt. As we all know, there is no royal family in Piltover. The four great families are actually in power, and the Philos family is the leader among the four great families.

That’s not all. The most important thing is that the intelligence organization of the Philos family is the bottom line that the other three families dare not touch. Any force that dares to confront the Philos family will be completely eliminated by the intelligence organization!

They are invincible swords and indestructible shields! They protect the Philos family while eliminating all enemies for the family!

The first agent of the intelligence organization is Camille, who has lived for more than a hundred years! She is the elder sister of Stevan, the current patriarch of the Philos family!

For the sake of her family, this woman did not hesitate to transform herself into a humanoid weapon! She cut off her legs and used metal blades as her feet, which allowed her to fully utilize her leg skills and make it easier to harvest the lives of her enemies!

As time goes by, almost all of Camille's body has been replaced by machines, even her heart has been replaced with the legendary Hextech heart that never stops!

Under the protection of his sister Camille, Stevan firmly sits on the throne of patriarch and rules Piltover at its peak!

Everyone present knew that as long as Stevan opened his mouth, anyone who dared to raise the price would probably not see the sun tomorrow, because the intelligence organization would come to visit them personally! No matter where you are!

"Forty-two million!"

Suddenly, an impossible offer was heard at the auction! It was like an invisible slap in the face of the Philos family!

Moreover, the sound did not come from the VIP room upstairs, but from the ordinary seats below!

"Who is so bold, looking for death!?"

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a black-haired young man with his right hand raised with a calm expression.

Needless to say, it's him!

Isn't this the idiot who bought the Hextech belt just now? He went on stage without a mask before, and now he dares to provoke the Philos family?

Did he commit suicide on purpose?

The entire auction fell into dead silence. As Su Xing made his bid, the entire place fell completely silent. No one dared to even breathe. The female host was trembling, not even daring to count down!

"Forty-two million and one hundred thousand."

A faint voice came from the box of the Philos family...
