Of course, Du Feng was not in a hurry to bid now, because the competition at the beginning was more intense. Bidding too early would only push the price of the commodity up. In the end, it would not be worth it if it rose too high.
"I bid 1,100 crystals of salt!"
"I bid one thousand two hundred!"
"I bid 1,300!"
In the end, not only did Du Feng advance, but several martial artists who participated in the bidding for the mermaid's skeleton also advanced. Each bid must not be lower than 100 crystals of salt, so they only increased the amount by 100 crystals. Du Feng looked at the current situation. There were only three martial artists in the hall who participated in the bidding for the crystal salt, which was not considered a lot.
However, this method of increasing the price bit by bit was not advisable, because it would unknowingly increase the price to a very high price. It was the same principle when drinking wine, using a very small cup to drink one cup at a time, unknowingly drinking too much.
"What are you waiting for? I bid 2,000."
Fortunately, at this moment, a guest in the VIP room made a bid. He was really generous, increasing the amount to 2,000 crystals at once. The three martial artists in the hall were stunned at once. What kind of joke was this? He was adding two thousand crystals of salt in one go. Who could compete with him?
Therefore, the three martial artists in the hall all gave up bidding. They were bidding for the mermaid's skeleton to go back and transform it into a batch of weapons to sell. It was worth it to buy a few, and after going back and transforming them, they could make a profit. If the purchase was too expensive, there would be no profit to be made.
"I bid 2,500 crystals!"
This time, it was the person in the VIP room who bid. To be precise, it was Du Feng who bid. He could not increase it too little, increasing it to 2,500 at once. In fact, this price was to test the other party to see if he really wanted it.
"3,000, don't dawdle with me, increase it if you have the ability."
This person's voice was a little hoarse, and it seemed that he was not young. This kind of person had a certain age, and he was in the VIP room, so he must have some status. Du Feng estimated that this person must be at the Perfected Golden Immortal Stage Cultivation, maybe even above the Perfected Golden Immortal Stage Level 5.
"I bid 4,000!"
Du Feng was also very ruthless. He directly increased the price to four thousand Crystal Salt, which was equivalent to increasing the price by one thousand. One had to know that this was crystalline salt, not immortal stones! As long as you have money, you can have an unlimited amount of Immortal Stones. However, the supply of Crystal Salt was limited. Even if you had the money, you might not be able to exchange for that much. Salt Lake City's annual production of crystalline salt was limited.
"I … wait, I have something to do."
The man wanted to raise the price again, but his voice was suddenly interrupted.
"I don't want it. I'll give it to you."
What was going on? This person wanted to raise the price to 4,500, but he suddenly stopped bidding and even politely said that he would give it to the Young Master. The martial artists in the hall were all dumbfounded. What was going on? Could it be that the people in the two rooms knew each other? Since they knew each other, why did they bid in the first place? Wouldn't it be more worthwhile to give in to each other a little?
"Thank you!"
This sentence was not said by Du Feng, but Niuer said it for him. Because the person in the other room knew that the person in this VIP room was the second son of the deputy city lord, and the city lord was his stepmother. So he quickly changed his mind and stopped bidding.
"Thank you!"
This sentence was said by Du Feng to Niuer. If it wasn't for Niuer's relationship, the other party would probably increase the price. Because this person was really rich, he was probably a big boss of a merchant alliance. As an outsider, he actually had so much Crystal Salt. It could be seen that he spent a lot of money to buy a lot of it in Salt Lake City, and he had been buying it for more than one or two years.
"Why are you being so polite at this time? Take the thing and leave."
As soon as Niu Er said this, the staff immediately brought the skeleton of the mermaid over. It wasn't carried over directly, but in a crystal coffin. This crystal coffin was very magical. It was only the size of a matchbox. However, the five meter long Mermaid Skeleton could be placed in it completely.
The Mermaid Skeleton was also very angry. An ordinary Storage Ring couldn't hold it at all, so it needed this matchbox-sized crystal coffin to contain it.
Du Feng was a person who abided by the rules. Although he had a relationship with Niuer, he still paid the money. His friend had helped him enough, so he couldn't owe him any more money. After paying the money, he tried to put the crystal coffin in. As expected, it couldn't be put into the Storage Ring, but it was put into the small world of the necklace.
It was a bit interesting. Since the addition of many level-18 monsters, the small world of the necklace had been upgraded again. Even things like the crystal coffin could be put in it. The upgrade of the small world of the necklace actually represented the upgrade of the rules of space. The higher the level of this space, the more things it could put in.
"Come with me!"
Niuer couldn't send Du Feng in person, so the staff took him quickly. Coming out of the VIP room, they passed through a long dark corridor, and then came to a room. Entering from this room, and then exiting from another door, they came directly to the teleportation array of Salt Lake City.
Ah, what was this situation!
As an array master, Du Feng was naturally familiar with the teleportation array. But the room and the door just now were really a bit magical, because there was no elemental energy fluctuation, and there was no sense of dizziness. He just opened and closed the door, and then he arrived at another place.
Although it was a short distance teleportation, it was quite difficult to do it without making a sound. Unfortunately, the situation was urgent, and there was no time to stay and study it properly.
"Sorry for the trouble, brothers!"
Du Feng paid the money and hurriedly went on the teleportation array, and a white light immediately appeared beside him. This light was very dazzling, and he had to close his eyes. Just as he closed his eyes, he felt his whole body spinning. When he opened his eyes again, he was already in the space-time tunnel.
The space-time tunnel was a very interesting thing, and he felt like he was in the void. The surroundings were dark, and there was nothing except for the stars. And people in the space-time tunnel were like in a transparent glass passage.
You could go forward along this passage, or you could wait in place and not move. Because whether you moved or not, this passage was flowing forward on its own. This was the flow of time, and also the flow of space.
A person taking a small step in the space-time tunnel, in the normal world, might be crossing an entire city. If you ran a few times in the space-time tunnel, you might run through a large forest, or cross a few mountains, or cross a vast desert.
