Chapter 476

These are the mining stones!
Feng Bailing and the other guests stared at those stones intently.

From the outside, Caitian stone is no different from ordinary stones, except that it is darker in color.

But these seemingly inconspicuous stones have caused a bloodbath among several countries in the past few months.

The first few countries that discovered Caitian stone fought each other bloody rivers in order to compete for Caitian stone, but after they fought for it, they found that Caitian stone was not easy to refine.

Ordinary ores are refined by fire, but normal fire can't melt the quarry stone at all. In the end, countries don't use special fire to refine the quarry stone.

Therefore, although several countries have ore, they can't develop it on a large scale. In the end, they had to compromise and sold the mining stone to Mingshi at a high price.

For example, Mingshi finally used volcanic lava to refine Caitian Stone, but even so, it was very laborious to forge weapons with the Tiantie extracted from Caitian Stone.

It must be a strong person at the level of Wuji Watermark, and it can be formed by continuous forging with Gang Qi.

Mingshi also felt that it would be too troublesome to refine the mining stone on a large scale, so he simply held this auction and sold it at a high price on the occasion of the Ten Nations Tournament, which can be regarded as throwing away this hot potato.

All the guests present at the moment only saw the Caitian Stone, and did not know how difficult it is to refine the Tiantie. At this time, every guest's eyes flashed with longing.

They thought to themselves, how many people dream of owning a weapon made of sky iron, it is a symbol of status and strength!

Nalan Yu'er and Dongfang Yu's couple are no exception. Although Nalan Yu'er bought a sleeve sword made of Tiantie from Elder Liu and gave it to Dongfang Jin, Dongfang Jin told Dongfang Jin after returning from the Imperial College. Nalan Yu'er, the sword in the sleeve couldn't pierce through Dugu Xiaojin's second layer of protective energy.

When Nalan Yuer heard this, he was very angry.

Elder Liu is really treacherous, before she boasted that the sword in the sleeve forged from Tiantie was the best in the sky and the earth, but unexpectedly, it was a spectacle but not useful, and he even spent a thousand taels of gold to buy it.

But having said that, Nalan Yu'er believes that as long as she buys a suitable Caitian stone tonight, Hua Wushang must have a way to forge better weapons and equipment.

Seeing the reactions of the guests, Chang Sun Rou secretly rejoiced.

She raised her voice and said.

"Don't worry, everyone. Tonight, every guest has the opportunity to participate in this stone betting activity. Before starting the stone betting, please draw the number of the betting stone from the box in front of you. These numbers are the order in which you participate in the betting. Groups of three."

For the stone gambling tonight, Mingshi also took great pains.

Mingshi has always claimed that the transaction is fair, just and open, and everyone is equal, so even if the status of the people present is different, the gambling stones will only come in order of number.

With such an arrangement, most of the guests are very satisfied.

Liu Chang, who had been waiting for a long time, asked people to move out three black boxes.

The guests stepped forward one after another and took out the corresponding numbers from the box.

Feng Bailing wanted Dugu duck to draw, after all, this guy is the emperor's treasure, and once drawn, he must be a "number one."

Unexpectedly, Dugu Yu didn't mean to take a step forward, he squinted at Feng Bailing.

"I have trouble walking. You can draw your card yourself."

Feng Bailing could only step forward and randomly gave out a number.

The number on the paper reads "Number 81."

There are five to six hundred guests present, in groups of two, that is, in groups of three hundred, in groups of three and three, and number 600 is relatively far behind.

Chang Sunrou said after everyone had finished drawing numbers.

"Those who have drawn the same number form a group, and the three of them choose the mining stone separately. If they choose the same piece, they have to bid. The person with the highest price will be selected first, and the person with the second highest price will choose the second mining stone." , and so on. The base price of each quarry stone in the venue tonight is 5 taels.".
No wonder Mingshi can become the world's number one chamber of commerce.

Feng Bailing sighed inwardly after hearing the rules of stone bidding.

Mingshi knows how to do business very well. This kind of stone betting can guarantee the reserve price and obtain a higher price.

The quarrying stone in front of me is no less than a thousand pieces. If the customers bought one piece each, it would be 5 taels. How much profit would this be for the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce?
All the guests were also very interested in this novel stone gambling method, and there were many discussions.

Feng Bailing listened intently, and heard many people talking there.

"How to choose, the stones are almost the same."

"Of course it's the big one, it's 5 taels anyway."

From Feng Bailing's point of view, these quarrying stones look exactly the same with the naked eye, only the size is different.

Chang Sun Rou seemed to see the doubts in the guests' hearts, and added.

"After you start a round of betting on stones, you can go up to check those mining stones. You can touch, smell, and even weigh them, but there is one thing, you can't damage the surface of the mining stones. Once there is any damage, you need to pay directly. 5 taels. If Tiantie is not extracted, they are not allowed to come to Mingshi to make trouble afterwards."

Because it is the number one chamber of commerce in the world, Mingshi has always been domineering, but no one dares to resist, because once you violate the rules of Mingshi, you will be blacklisted by Mingshi next time, and you will no longer be able to trade with Mingshi .

"Start reporting the number now, people with the same number form a group."

After Chang Sun Rou finished speaking, she walked to the side with a smile, and Elder Liu began to count.

"No. 81, No. [-]... No. [-]..."

Feng Bailing stepped forward.

Princess Changle also came out, holding a number plate number 81 in her hand.

She glanced at Feng Bailing, raised her eyebrows, and there was a hint of provocation in her eyes.

To Feng Bailing's surprise, Nalan Yu'er also came over.

It's really a narrow road to Yuanjia, and her number is also No. 81.

If Feng Bailing hadn't noticed the lottery just now, she would have thought it was deliberately arranged by Changsunlou.

"King Duck, we are really destined."

Xiao Junci gave a half-smile, and cast a sidelong glance at Dugu Qu.

Dugu duck didn't speak, he didn't seem to have much interest in mining the sky stone.

Soon, all the numbers were reported.

In addition to Feng Bailing's group, Ouyang Shenshen and Princess Anyang were divided into a group, and Li Mubei did not end, so Feng Luochen was asked to draw lots.

Dongfang Li had the best luck, he got number one.

The first number was also drawn by the woman in white from Chen Dynasty who chatted with Feng Bailing earlier, and a man who looked like a businessman.

Dongfangli's face was a little happy, Dongfangli felt that his luck had always been good, and this stone betting should be no exception.
