Life in a different world begins with hidden strength

Chapter 65 Underground Auction

The fine weather continues.

On roads with frequent pedestrian traffic, the snow gradually melted away.

The trade between towns has been completely restored.

In fact, due to the existence of space equipment, logistics problems have been greatly alleviated. Each time only one person sets foot on the road, he can bring back dozens of times the amount of supplies. Therefore, no matter how bad the weather is, the lives of residents in the inner city of the royal capital are rarely affected.

The master-level space equipment that appeared at Langton Auction House sold for high prices one after another.

All of them are extremely practical suitcases that can be carried on the back, carried in the hand, or dragged along the ground on pulleys. The hard shell prevents the inscription from being affected by external forces, effectively extending the durability of the equipment.

The regular volume is 72 liters, which is not too bulky and easy to carry.

The key is, there are a total of five pieces!
Colleagues are very curious about where these master-level space equipment come from, but the customers participating in the auction don't care about this and shout out for higher prices. Seven hundred and thirty-one gold, seven hundred and sixty-nine gold, and eight hundred and twenty gold were sold respectively...

Mi Jiaan's funds were nearly drying up and new blood was injected into them. You know, in order to buy the structure for Apan, he paid 1,700 gold!

Making space equipment is a huge profit, and all the major families in the capital are covetous. Unfortunately, the threshold is too high, and there are only one spell caster in a million. Completing every space folding is also a screening threshold.

Folding once, most ordinary spellcasters can easily do it. Rated as an apprentice, the market price is mostly single-digit silver dollars.

Folding twice, ordinary spell casters need to invest a certain amount of energy and study to do it. It is rated as entry-level, and the market price starts at a few tens of silver.

Folding three times requires a certain amount of control talent, and nearly 90% of spellcasters cannot do it. The grade is regular and the market price is about ten gold.

Folded four times, the realm of true genius requires spiritual substantivity, further sublimation of control, and the elimination of ninety-nine percent of spellcasters. It is rated as a high-quality product and the market price is around 100 gold.

Fold five times, the realm of masters, the end of genius’ struggle. Most people are already old by this point. Looking at the tens of thousands of spellcasters in the Oran Kingdom, there are only twenty or thirty at most.

Reaching the top level in any industry is a huge profit, let alone the spell caster industry with a monopoly.

Based on the rate of one piece per week, the monthly income of the inscription master may be around three thousand gold dragons, which is exactly the average salary of three silver coins for 100,000 people.

The power of one person is comparable to the gross production value of a viscount-level territory.

Actually, it's not an exaggeration. Spellcasting nobles are never above their lords. After all, territory can be passed down from generation to generation. The Master of Inscription caster has a limited lifespan left and must work to earn an income.

As the watershed of the great nobles, the earl level is an absolute chasm that cannot be overcome by one's own strength.

The Langton family reported last year that the total permanent population of the noble council territory was 4.57 million.

There is no doubt that every great noble has the possibility of establishing an independent country. The main reason why the alliance forms a nominal country is pressure from the outside. The centralized Beifeng Empire and the orc tribe alliance in the northwest wilderness are powerful opponents with an aggressive nature, and they cannot compete alone.

Therefore, all the lords who want to maintain a long-lasting inheritance gathered together to build the great Oran Alliance! Later, the Noble Council was established and gradually evolved into the current Kingdom of Oran.

The task of resettling refugees is gradually coming to an end.

Transported back and forth, more than a hundred people moved into the employee dormitories of the harness factory.

Qian Xia organized a vigorous cleaning campaign. With the funds provided by Mi Jiaan, she hired a construction team to perform maintenance, replace damaged doors and windows, install magic lights, and carpenters built brand new beds, including the exterior walls.

The environment changes almost every day.

There are twelve dormitories on each floor, with an average of two people per room. Try to ensure that every room is occupied. It is easy for strange things to enter an empty house. It is expected that Mr. Mi Jiaan will continue to rescue a group of people in the future. Anna's mother and sister are still in the hands of slave traders.

The same day as Langton Auction House’s Spring Festival Gala.

The underground auction of the population black market was in full swing, and the venue was packed with admiring bidders.

Every spot is extremely valuable. Not only does it require a certain identity, but it also requires an introduction from an insider.

In order to avoid the embarrassment and image collapse caused by identity disclosure, the organizers specifically allow participants to wear masks and even weird costumes.

As far as the eye can see, it is like a scene at a drag party, and some ulterior motives are inevitably mixed into it.

But the organizer didn't care. They thought they had a strong background and strong people would be in charge, and ordinary people wouldn't be able to make waves.

"Everyone must be a little impatient to wait. I can guarantee that there will be many surprises this month."

The young male auctioneer wore a black round hat, a suit and leather shoes, with half a white fox mask covering his face, and raised his white gloves to signal.

The young girl with dark brown hair lowered her head deeply. Magic shackles were hung on her hands, feet and neck, and she was covered with a looming veil.

"A rare good thing among thousands of people, with a gentle and obedient personality, and a level B level of docility, ensuring that she remains intact and pure." The auctioneer casually tore off the gauze and introduced with a smile.

"The starting price is one hundred gold."

"One hundred and twenty gold, one hundred and sixty gold..." The bidding sounds came and went, and it seemed that the enthusiasm of the participants was not very high.

Although Anne has some beauty, she is just ordinary in the eyes of the superiors. She can only meet the entry-level standards, that is, the level of an ordinary personal maid. She lacks the bonus of special blood and status, so it is difficult to attract much interest.

"Two hundred gold!"

Someone suddenly added the price of forty gold, and the noisy scene immediately fell into silence.

"Three, two, one. Congratulations to the bidder!" The auctioneer excitedly knocked the hammer.

Annie let the bunny-eared girl push her to the man in black robe, and obediently climbed into the space handbag.

Mi Jia'an took out a bag of gold coins, poured it on the tray, and let the rabbit-eared girl count it. After confirming that the money and goods were cleared, he was about to leave, but was blocked by the guards.

"Sir, for the sake of confidentiality, no one can leave until the auction is over."

Mi Jiaan had no choice but to retreat and continue to enjoy the second round of auction.

The green-haired half-elf girl was tied to a moving iron frame. She struggled wildly but could not stop the two bunny-eared girls from pushing her to the center of the booth and yelling in a high-pitched voice.

"Ah, don't look..."

"You go away."

The more she resisted, the more excited they became.

There was tacit laughter in the venue, and the gentlemen looked at each other with scrutiny and whispered among themselves.
