The Auction Begins
Jin Gao Yi's face was indeed disgusting. He knew that the Tianfeng Faction had ill intentions, but he still brought them to the Tianfu Pavilion.
"Mister Jia, this is a misunderstanding."
Jin Gao Yi had a smile on his face. "Grandmaster, in order to obtain the materials for this armor, we hunted and killed the Great Swamp Giant Crocodile. Grandmaster, please give this armor to me for the sake of the dead members of our Jin family. I am willing to add another one million taels to the refining fee."
"Hahaha, Elder Jin, you have eight million taels here. Add another one million and it will be nine million taels. The day after tomorrow is the start of the Purple Cloud Auction. I will send this magic tool to be auctioned. Maybe you can get it without spending so much. "
Luo Zheng revealed a mocking expression as he smiled faintly.
"This …" Jin Gao Yi's face was bitter.
In the auction two days later, in addition to the Flame Scorpion's fire source, there would also be many rare heavenly treasures, divine weapons, and rare medicinal pills.
At that time, more than half of the rich and powerful clans in the Hundred Battles Dynasty will send people to attend. At that time, the auction would be filled with rich guests, each of them rich and overbearing. When such a magic tool appeared in the auction, it would definitely attract attention and be sold for an extremely shocking price. Not to mention nine million taels, even fifteen million taels might not be enough to buy it.
"Grandmaster, it's all my fault this time. I would like to offer 13 million taels of silver to buy this magic tool. Grandmaster, please fulfill my request. "
Jin Gao Yi thought for a while and gritted his teeth.
As an Elder of the Jin family, Jin Gaoyi only had around ten million taels of silver. This time, he even had to spit out the three million taels he had just eaten. If Luo Zheng still didn't agree, he would probably vomit blood.
"Alright, seeing Elder Jin's sincerity, I will agree!"
Luo Zheng said with a smile.
This time, he earned an extra five million taels of gold, which made him quite satisfied.
Thirteen million taels was almost a sky-high price. After all, if it was sold at the auction house, 10% of the auction fee would be deducted.
More importantly, he had to rely on this magic tool to make a name for himself. In the past few days, not a single person had come to Luo Zheng's door to ask him to refine a middle-grade magic tool. Although there were many people who wanted to refine low-grade magic tools, he didn't want to accept them.
Even if he were to refine ten low-grade magic tools in a month, he would only be able to earn around ten million taels. As for middle-grade magic tools, he only needed to refine two of them to earn ten million taels of gold.
Seeing that Luo Zheng had agreed, Jin Gao Yi took out another five million gold notes from the Qiankun Gourd.
After obtaining the magical armor, Jin Gao Yi exchanged a few more pleasantries with Luo Zheng. Then, he pressed his chest and gloomily left.
This Heavenly Fortune Pavilion was a sad place for him. Originally, he could have gotten the magic tool with only five million taels of silver, but he had to spend ten million taels of silver, emptying his savings.
He had lost five million taels of gold for nothing. Thinking of this, Jin Gao Yi almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
After returning to his private residence, Jin Gao Yi rested for two hours before he finally recovered.
"Traceless Crocodile Shadow Armor! This ten million taels of silver was well spent. "
Looking at the liquid armor in his hand, Jin Gao Yi felt relieved. This magic tool armor was shaped like a transparent liquid. When Genuine Qi was injected into it, it would turn into liquid and cover the whole body. It was indeed magical.
According to the craftsmen, the name of the magic tool was naturally given by the craftsman.
"Master, Song Guo, Lin Tongguang … the masters are here."
A cute little maid came in to report.
"Why are these old guys here? Or did they come together? This armor is my trump card. I can't let these old guys know. "
Jin Gao Yi revealed a sinister smile. He put the armor into the Qiankun Gourd and said, "Let them in."
"Old Man Gao, I heard that you've hit the jackpot. The craftsman of the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion has refined the skull of the Great Swamp Crocodile into a middle-grade magic tool!"
"I heard that this magic tool not only has a strong water attribute defense, but it also has a metal-attribute attack. Plus, it can be invisible. Altogether, it's not weaker than a high-grade magic tool."
"Old Gao, quickly take it out. Otherwise, don't even think about being kind today."
Five or six old men in luxurious clothes swarmed in and surrounded Jin Gaoyi.
These old men walked with majestic gait. They were obviously experts who had been in power for a long time. At this moment, they were like angry roosters or anxious wild boars. They almost tore Jin Gao Yi's clothes apart.
"Bastards, I haven't even warmed up this magic tool yet. How did you know?"
Jin Gao Yi's eyes widened. His eyes were red as he stared at these people.
If it weren't for the fact that these people were his close friends from when he was young, he would have had the urge to kill them.
He had planned to keep this Traceless Crocodile Shadow Armor as his trump card. How did everyone know about it?
"We also heard about it. The news has spread all over the War Emperor City."
"Hmph, I didn't believe it before. But looking at Old Gao's reaction now, it should be confirmed."
"Old man Gao, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and take out that magic tool of yours. Let us see it."
Several old men stared at Jin Gao Yi. If he didn't take it out, they would snatch it.
"Well, you old men have a good chat. I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave."
A black-clothed old man rolled his eyes, stood up, and quickly left.
"Not good, Lin Tongguang has a piece of the Golden Bear's fur in his family. He must have gone to the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion because he couldn't find a suitable blacksmith."
"Old Lin is so immoral. I've kept that pair of Sunflower Water Spirit Dove Wings in my hands for more than ten years …"
The other old men immediately reacted and chased after Lin Tongguang.
These people were the elders of the big families. They had collected some materials from Fearsome Beasts.
However, there weren't many blacksmiths in the first place, and there were even fewer blacksmiths who could refine Fearsome Beasts. They hadn't been able to find a suitable blacksmith. Previously, the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion had spread the news, but the cost of refining was too high. Everyone had a wait-and-see attitude.
Now that Jin Gao Yi, who was the first to test the waters, had benefited greatly, the others naturally stopped doubting him.
… …
Two days later.
Early in the morning, Luo Zheng walked towards the Purple Cloud Auction House.
In these two days, the Heavenly Fortune Pavilion had been crowded from morning to night. People who wanted to refine magic tools had blocked the entrance.
However, after some consideration, Luo Zheng decided to only refine five mid-grade Magic artefacts. After all, refining one mid-grade Magic artefact would take five to six days. Refining five mid-grade Magic artefacts would take one month.
If he spent all his time on blacksmiths, it would naturally affect Luo Zheng's cultivation progress.
As for refining magic tools for other forces, he left it to Old Jia. He didn't need to worry about it himself.
In just a few days, Luo Zheng had earned thirty-five million gold taels.
Ten million gold taels were from refining the Traceless Crocodile Shadow Armor, and the remaining twenty-five million gold taels were prepaid for refining magic tools.
