There was a burst of exclamation from the audience.
"Oh my God, did the master actually come to the auction in person?"
"How is it possible? Where, where?"
"How distinguished is the status of a fifth-level weapon refiner? He must be in the VIP box on the third floor, right?"
"Really? Which one do you think it is?"
Everyone was talking, and even the prince raised his head and looked upstairs, looking for where the master of weapon refinement might appear.
He has never come into contact with such a high-level weapon refiner! If the master really comes to Nanyue Kingdom in person, then as the prince of Nanyue Kingdom, if he can take this opportunity to establish friendship with the master, it will be of great benefit!
The prince was lost in thought when the young waiter's voice came from behind him.
"Guest, would you like a drink? This is brewed from the newly opened white roses in Fengjian Town this year. It is not an old product from the next year. This kind of wine can only produce dozens of bottles a year. Except in our Qianzhen Pavilion, you can’t drink it anywhere else.”
"I told you I'm not interested!" The prince became even more impatient.
However, the young waiter still did not leave.
He opened the bottle directly, and immediately, a strong aroma of wine filled the auction room, attracting the attention of the surrounding guests.
"Oh my god, this smells so good! What kind of wine is this?"
"It smells so good. Just smelling this smell makes me feel drunk..."
The waiter put the wine bottle in front of the prince, "Guest, please smell... this fragrance is definitely worth the price!"
This unusually mellow fragrance made the prince stunned for a moment. For a moment, he felt that he was almost drunk. He had never smelled such a strong smell of alcohol!
At this time, there was already a commotion around.
Many customers were attracted and gathered around the waiter to ask about the price and want to have a drink.
Suddenly, this area became extremely noisy.
The prince was already in a bad mood, and now he felt a dull pain in his head, and his heart was even more irritable. He endured it again and again, and finally couldn't help but yelled: "That's enough! It's so noisy! I need to buy it elsewhere." !”
The young waiter seemed to be frightened by him, so he quickly put away the wine bottles, pushed the cart and left in a hurry.
It wasn't until the waiter left that the surrounding volume became quieter. The prince pressed his throbbing temples before he could relax.
Suddenly, only shopkeeper Sun's voice was heard on the stage.
"... Then, let's start bidding! The starting price is zero! The amount of each bid increase must not be less than ten thousand taels!"
The prince was startled and immediately sat upright.
It's all because the waiter came at the wrong time. Shopkeeper Sun said a few words just now, but he didn't hear them at all. He always felt that he missed some important information.
Fortunately, he made it to the auction in time!
Thinking of this, he felt very lucky.
Since the starting bid for the Mysterious Weapon Set was zero, there was a moment of silence at the auction.
When auctioning high-value treasures, the reserve price is zero. This is a common strategy used by auction houses.
Because if a reserve price is set at the beginning, it will often lead customers to think that the price of the product will not exceed the reserve price by much. Generally, it is rare to sell products for more than ten times the reserve price.
But it's different when the reserve price is zero. Customers who really want this treasure will often bid based on their own psychological price, which makes it easier to offer a price higher than the original value.
