Chapter 59: Auction (3)
Jeong Dae-nam met Kim Hyun-woo, a miner of the same age who worked together at a cafe.
Kim Hyeon-woo said that Dae-nam Jeong was afraid to sit down.
"He said that the Aegis underground workshop was a success?"
"Uh huh."
"How the hell did that timid bastard do such a thing?"
"Ye-soo is so eccentric ."
"What happened?"
"How will it be gotta watch But what about the earth square?"
Kim Hyun-woo said insignificantly.
"No, just. There are rumors that Aegis is working on the pillar."
Jeong Dae-nam asked as if he was puzzled because he had never heard of the rumor.
"Have there been such rumors?"
"I think I did my first hunt there. So it seems like there are words like that."
"ah ." Hyeon-woo looked at Jeong Dae-nam and said implicitly.
"Actually, if I'm going to call a miner in Korea, it's either you or me. If you ever call me to work on a pillar, let's do it together. Whoever you call."
"Ah, that's right."
"Did you get a call from Aegis?"
Jeong Dae-nam remembered Jun-woo's words to keep it a secret, so he looked around awkwardly.
"No, not yet ."
"If you come and talk to me, let's do it together. I'll call you when I get in touch. Your team and the kids on our team should work together to make a lot of money. You don't have a job these days."
"yes I know what you mean. We'll need a lot of people ."
Kim Hyun-woo drank coffee and nodded while looking at Jeong Dae-nam.
"I called you to say that. Seongpan also heard about him."
"Uh I'll call you when I get in touch."
"Thank you, I will."
"Let's have a drink next time."
"Oh, then."
"I have an appointment, so I'll go first."
Kim Hyun-woo got up and left the cafe.
Kim Hyun-woo, who came out, picked up his cell phone and called somewhere.
"That's me. This is the way to go out with a friend who just worked as a manager at that time."
The person who answered the call was Baek Jin-seong of the Poongrim Guild.
"Thank you. Didn't that person work with you?"
"Oh, I didn't say anything. That friend is also a cowardly guy, so I can't get into a job like this."
"Is that so? There's nothing wrong with it."
"But can you afford this? If you make a mistake, you will be in big trouble."
"You just have to make them think that they did it on the Dark Star side. Do not worry."
Kim Hyun-woo laughed.
"Heh heh, I see. We're working, and when we're almost done, can we just call in the middle?"
"Yes, we will take care of the rest."
"I wish I could work quickly. But I don't know if I can get through it. I don't know if there are a lot of unique foreign children singing."
"Well, he must have a way. I also built a flying car."
"It was terrific. Anyway, I see. We will contact you when we get to work."
"You know that the members of your team should not know until you start working on it, right?"
"Sure. Then I hang up."
Hyunwoo Kim hung up the phone and shook his head with a smile on his face.
"Why are there so many thieves? Ttttttttt."
It was Kim Hyun-woo, who was walking with his tongue.

Jun-woo drew a blueprint at night to prepare for the auction, and made the blueprint into an item during the day.
The items to be used in the auction were created one by one over time.
However, all of the 10 items to be used in the auction were heavily used magic crystals.
People knew that an alchemist's inventions contained a lot of magic crystals.
said the auctioneer.
"Let's start the auction of the first auction item, the magic light. The starting price of the auction is 1 billion gold, and I will ask for 10 million gold."
An electronic billboard announcing the price lit up behind the head of the auctioneer Chan Lee.
One billion gold was written on it.
"When you press the paid button, the price goes up by 10 million gold. Then let's get started."
When the person wearing the mask pressed the button, the number of electronic signage that was illuminating 1 billion gold became 1.10 billion gold.
"One billion, ten million, twenty million, fifty million, 1.1 billion, 1.15 billion, six thousand, seven thousand. 1.2 billion, I will quote 20 million gold in 5 seconds."
Auctioneer Chan Lee continued.
"Prices are 5, 4, 3, 2, 12, and 20 million gold. 1.22 billion, 1.24 billion, 600, 880, 1.3 billion, 1.34 billion, 1.4 billion, 1.5 billion, 5 seconds later, 30 million gold will be quoted."
The price went up quickly.
"Prices are 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 30 million gold."
Electronic billboards illuminating prices continued to rise.
"The price is 50 million gold each. 2 billion, 2,055, 2.1 billion, 2.15 billion, 2.2 billion, 5 seconds later, 100 million gold will be quoted."
Jun-woo felt strange when he saw the rising price.
I was living in a world where the value of an item was fixed.
People had a strong tendency not to buy if they sold at a price higher than the value of the item.
Usually, the transaction was carried out at that price that was set in value.
But as if it had been completely forgotten, the price continued to rise.
Jun-woo wondered where their madness would go.
"I will quote 500 million gold each. We will quote 4.5 billion, 5 billion, 5.5 billion, 6 billion, 6.5 billion, and 700 million gold after 5 seconds."
It was over 6 times the value of the item.
"We will quote 1 billion gold after 7.2 billion, 7.9 billion, 8.6 billion, 9.3 billion and 1005 billion seconds. We will quote 5, 4, 3, 2, 11 billion gold each."
Electronic signage stopped at 10 billion.
A moment of silence passed.
"11 billion, 12 billion, 13 billion, 13 billion, 13 billion. Without more, 14 billion, 15 billion, 16 billion, 16 billion, 17 billion, 17 billion. If there are no more, I will bid 3 times and finish. Numbers 17 billion, 17 billion, 17 billion, and 125 have been awarded. congratulations."
Jun-woo walked to seat 125.
The person sitting was a man in a black suit and mask.
Jun-woo spoke to him and held out his hand.
"Thank you for participating in the auction."
He shook hands once and opened the trading window without a word.
And the golden magic lamp was sold on the spot for 17 billion gold.
said the auctioneer.
"Please applaud the successful bidder and producer."
The sound of applause filled the pulpit, and Jun-woo returned to his seat with applause.
"Next, let me introduce you to the second auction."
The lights in the auditorium were turned off, and Jun-woo started explaining the product again under the lights.
The second thing Jun-woo took out was a flashlight with an impressive golden handle.
"The second auction is a recovery flashlight. As you may have noticed from the name, this item has a healing effect. To put it simply, it is similar to the heel used by the clergy."
Jun-woo shined a flashlight on his chest.
"At the gate, when hunting a party, there are many cases of hunting without a priest because the priest is not found. A lot of potions are consumed at that time, and too much potion can make you full. So I made it."
[Recovery Flashlight]
-Rank: Epic+
-Durability: 500/500
-Effect: Restores 20 health per second.
Item value: 1,550,000,000
-Producer: Lewis
The lights came on in the auditorium, and the auctioneer said.
"Let's start the auction for the second auction item, the Restoration Flashlight. The starting price of the auction is 1.5 billion gold, and we will bid for 50 million gold to speed up the process."
Each time the button was pressed, the price of the electronic sign went up by 50 million gold.
It went up by 100 million, and the auction price that went up continuously reached 1 billion again.
"If there are no more, we will bid three times and finish it. No. 21 billion, 21 billion, 21 billion, and 125 have been sold. congratulations."
He was the same person who bought the magic lamp.
Jun-woo walked in front of him to trade again.
"Thank you for winning the bid twice."
The corner of the mouth of number 125, visible through the mask, seemed to rise slightly.
