"And my bones value?" Hye didn't give any answer to her words, and just continued to ask more, "and can I have a list of the items getting sold in the auction? You don't expect me to go in there and pay such a scary figure just for one item."
"I can get you a list of the sold goods," Uncle Lam said, confirming Hye's earlier doubts about his knowledge about all this from the start, "as for the bones value, we can agree to formulate a unified list for the bones you'll offer to pay with, editing the initial prices and increasing bids according to your bones."
"We also will update the auction interface of our family, so you and others can learn about your biddings and price paid," the princess said, adding more details, telling Hye that she and Uncle Lam were together in this, planning everything before this meeting.
Hye even suspected that Uncle Lam took them on a long tour underground on purpose of wasting more time. They had to think thoroughly about how to maximise their gains from this deal.
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm "Cool," Hye took out his normal bones, starting from green grade all the way to pale gold grade, "you can take these and assess their value like you said. And you can also add this bone as well," he took on green grade dark realm bone as well.
If the initial price to join the auction would be one million blue bones of his, then he'd expect much higher prices for the items sold inside the auction.
He didn't intend to leave empty handed. Even if the Crystal Heart sold here was a bottomless pit for his bones, he still wanted it. As for the little show he did just now, he did it to know what items were getting sold and get lots of details about them.
He knew anyone taking part in any auction would get such a list, but a much shorter one. He wanted the extensive edition of it, the one that only merchants and their closest customers would have.
"I'm adding you as my friend," Uncle Lam stepped up, placed his arm over Hye's shoulder. Then a notification popped up and Hye accepted it, "I've sent you an invitation to join our family's auction house. It's a private place, one that only selective individuals like yourself are allowed to join."
"Thanks," Hye accepted the invitation and next, a new interface opened up. In front of him, there was an empty page, with a few words at its top saying that he needed authorization to enter the auction house.
He turned towards the princess, and the latter shrugged. "If you are asking about the lack of authorisation message, then it's not my fault. You need to pay the fees to enter there."
"I won't pay a scrap until I read that list," Hye crossed his arms in response.
"I'm preparing it for you right now," Uncle Lam had to intervene, or else the two might enter into a fight or something, "I'm just assessing your bones and adding their value in the list."
"Fine," the two of them said at the same time, making Uncle Lam feel more pressure. As for the lady nymph, she stayed silent, watching how Hye and the princess were looking at each other in a challenging way.
Hye wouldn't mind paying his bones to get what he wanted, but he'd greatly be stirred up if the person acted in arrogance while trying to take as many bones out of him as possible.
If anyone wanted his bones, they had to show him courtesy and act humble, show him the respect he deserved, even if it was one of the royal families here.
"It's done," after almost ten minutes, Uncle Lam said in a cheerful tone, "you can now access the list I updated. I added you there, so you can see it."
Hye opened the interface of the list from a small icon that appeared new in front of his eyes. A new list appeared, one that had too many goods, more than what Hye in his wildest expectations.
He thought as there was a short list of privileged individuals invited here, and the scary prices of these goods, then it was logical for the auction house to offer just a small number of them. Yet what welcomed him was a full list of many pages, exceeding fifty in total, with each page having around one hundred items.
"You can check any item you want by selecting it, and a new page will open with all the details related to it," Uncle Lam said, while giving the princess a warning look.
Hye ignored them and started to select the names in the list one by one. According to the instructions at the forefront of each page, these items were getting sold in order. The ones sold out would be removed, and new ones would be added.
"Does that mean this auction is going on forever?" Hye couldn't help but ask, and Uncle Lam explained things over to him.
The auction happened once per month and would remain open to add new goods to it for four straight days. Then the admission gates would be shut down, and the auction would be over once all the goods would be sold.
This was a very nice tactic actually. Hye knew this auction would have regular customers, but there were tons of new ones as well. Perhaps anyone seeing how crazy the prices were, would get tempted to sell his precious belongings, adding more value to this auction.
It was a nice move, one that Hye admired and took note of. As for the list in front of him, he just skipped through the first page, went directly towards the second page and started checking their goods carefully.
He started to read weird names, all were treasures that included artefacts, naturally born artefacts, manmade treasures, and even things that got weird powers and uses without fully understanding them.
