Chapter 31: Auction – Part 2

Just like Liu Yan said, although that piece of jadeite was light green, it was very large and so contained no less energy than those smaller high-quality jadeite. This resulted in the final transaction price being very high.

“Next, is today’s second lot. It is three 100 milliliter vials of primary water element liquid with an energy purity of 22.7% and a certificate from the Energy Administration. The starting price is 300,000 credit, and each bid increment must not be less than 10,000. Let the auction begin!”

Few forces are willing to hire junior energy engineers. After all, these novice energy engineers have just made their debut and have weak control over their mental power. When energy extraction is performed, small problems often occur, causing some unnecessary losses.

Therefore, these junior energy engineers can only buy some cheap jade pieces themselves, and then entrust the extracted energy liquid and element liquid to auction houses for sale.

Obviously, it is impossible for these junior energy engineers to have the financial resources to buy an expensive multi-purpose energy detector, so these water element liquids have likely been tested by Yin’s Auction House.

Xing Mo’s heart moved slightly, thinking that the element liquid and energy liquid extracted by Lin Luo in the future might also be able to use this method to sell. If the auction house conducts the test, there is no need to worry that the Energy Administration will follow them. After all, the auction house has their own set of rules. If the consignor does not want to be named, even if the director of the Energy Administration comes in person he cannot force the auction house to disclose the personal information of the consignor. What’s more, with Yin Ye’s tough background it makes a good shield.

But then… that means the multi-purpose energy detector at home seems to have been bought for nothing?

I don’t know if I can return it?

While Xing Mo was thinking about these things, the three primary water element liquids finally sold for 430,000 credits. The purity of this primary elemental liquid was too low, so the energy that was available to be absorbed and transformed by the ability users was not much. If it were not for the rare water element of the liquid, It likely would not even be able to get as high as 400,000.

No one in the VIP boxes bid. Obviously they were not interested in this primary quality liquid.

The third lot was ten primary energy liquids, which should have been made by a primary energy engineer. This kind of energy liquid was very useful for charging robots, so it was quickly sold at a price of 300,000 credits.

The following things were similar, and there was nothing particularly attractive to Lin Luo, so he couldn’t help but look around, and was quickly attracted by the exquisite drinks and snacks on the coffee table.

The drink that caught his eye was freshly squeezed orange juice. The bright orange liquid was packed in a long-necked bottle made of crystal, not to mention the square of  pale green matcha pastry next to it, which looked extraordinarily beautiful.

Lin Luo saw that Xing Mo was looking in the direction of the auction table without noticing himself, so he cautiously stretched out his hand to get the cake, which looked as cute as a cat batting at fish.

Xing Mo is an ability user, and he has undergone military training. How could he not even notice the movement of people around him? He just deliberately pretended not to see it, and peeked at Lin Luo’s cute appearance from the corner of his eye.

Lin Luo successfully grabbed a small piece of pastry, then pushed it into his mouth and chewed it quickly. The cheeks bulged slightly like a hamster.

Lin Luo’s appearance was too cute. Xing Mo had to cough slightly, and used his fist to cover up the smile on his lips.

Lin Luo seemed to be frightened by Xing Mo. The chewing movement of his mouth stopped suddenly, and his brown cat’s eyes widened, just like a little hamster who was scared away from his seeds…

“Hahaha…” Xing Mo couldn’t help laughing at last, and stretched out his hand and squeezed his cheeks, while he said helplessly, “If you want to eat, just eat it openly. Yin Ye had his people put it here for us to eat if we wanted.”

“Oh…” Lin Luo blushed with embarrassment.

At this time, a new lot suddenly appeared on the big screen. It was a space button. All space buttons available are made of rare metals with a special method, causing there to be few in circulation. Although space buttons can store items, they are not very large, and are typically only four or five square meters. However since they are concealed and make it more convenient to carry items, many people want to get one.

The starting price of this space button is 1 million, and each increase cannot be less than 100,000 credits.

Xing Mo glanced at Lin Luo, who was struggling, then picked up the bidder on the side and started bidding. He wants to buy one for Lin Luo so that he can store the things he likes in the future.

Who made his Xiao Luo such a foodie?

This space button was really in demand, and the price soon broke through the 5 million mark, and it was still going up, but at 6 million, the upward trend began to slow down.

Today, many people are ultimately here for the piece of imperial yellow glass jade that is going to be presented for the finale. That piece of jade cannot be won without tens of millions, so they know they can’t waste too much money on this space button now. After all, at the end of the day such a space button doesn’t have much impact on their lives. It’s not such a big deal to buy a few more handling robots to help carry things.
