Upon reaching the second floor, the first thing that entered his eyes was not the hall that he had imagined. Instead, it was a bright and quiet passageway. At the end of the passageway, there was a large golden door. At this moment, the door was tightly shut and he could not clearly see what was inside. It gave off a rather mysterious feeling.
What made Long Bufan feel strange was that in front of the golden door, there were actually two Black Robed Deacons. They stood on both sides of the door like guards. They looked straight ahead and did not move at all.
"Are the two of them waiting in line?" Long Bufan suspiciously asked. He thought that the two Black Robed Deacons were also here to buy weapons.
Hearing this, the female shop assistant was slightly stunned. She looked at Long Bufan with a strange expression. Soon after, she seemed to have thought of something and suspiciously asked, "Could it be that you have just been promoted to the inner district?"
"Yes, I just arrived today." Long Bufan indifferently nodded. He did not feel the slightest bit embarrassed. Even if he was a newcomer, his position was clearly much higher than the female shop assistant in front of him.
The female shop assistant slightly smiled and said, "No wonder you don't know the situation on the second floor of the Divine Weapon Hall."
"Oh?" Long Bufan's eyebrows slightly raised. He was slightly curious as he asked, "What's the situation?"
The female shop assistant who had just received two Ageless Pills was in an extremely good mood. Moreover, the person in front of her was the one who had given it to her. Immediately, she enthusiastically explained, "The inner district is where the Three Halls and Five Pavilions gather for leisure. It is also known as the inner city. In the inner city, nearly forty percent of the industries belong to the Shrine Pavilion. The other sixty percent is contracted by the various clans. The Divine Weapon Hall is the exclusive industry of the Shrine Pavilion."
"So the Divine Weapon Hall belongs to the Shrine Pavilion." Long Bufan suddenly understood. However, he did not feel too surprised.
This was because this phenomenon also existed in his previous world. The entire territory of a country was controlled by those in power. Naturally, they would not have so much energy to develop all of it. Instead, they chose a portion of the land with good geographical location to develop into a national industry. The rest of the land was rented or temporarily sold to those capable private enterprises.
Firstly, it could collect taxes. Secondly, it could promote social and economic development. It was killing two birds with one stone.
The Divine Weapon Hall was the exclusive property of the Shrine Pavilion, so what was the purpose of these two Black Deacons standing here?
"The second floor of the Divine Weapon Hall is different from the first floor's transaction hall. Although the weapons on the second floor are not as numerous as the weapons on the first floor, they are all of the best quality. Furthermore, the transaction method is not fixed, but an auction."
The female salesperson glanced at Long Bufan beside her and smiled. "Behind the door at the end of the passage is the auction hall on the second floor. The two Black Deacons standing in front of the door have accepted the mission of today's auction. They are responsible for maintaining order until the end of the auction. You will receive the corresponding contribution points."
Long Bufan was stunned when he heard this, and he said in surprise, "There's actually an auction here?"
He tilted his head and looked at the female shop assistant. No wonder this little girl said that higher grade weapons were not part of her sales range. It turned out that good things were kept for auction.
"Yes, our Divine Weapon Hall holds an auction every two years. Your luck is not bad. You just happened to be in time for today's auction."
The female shop assistant smiled and nodded. She said coquettishly, "And your luck is even better that you met me. Because the customer I recommended last time happened to have something to do today and could not attend the auction. There is an empty seat."
