    "Okay, a bunch of snacks and appetizers have been served, and then it's time for the main meal of this auction." The auctioneer's voice became louder.  This so-called dinner is not something ordinary people can eat. The auction items are all related to practitioners such as magicians and warriors, such as magic weapons, elixirs, materials, secrets of exercises, etc. No matter how rich ordinary people are, they can bid for these things.  It's useless, and it will cause trouble for yourself.

    "According to past practice, we will start with the spiritual stones, followed by various rare materials, then the finished elixirs, magical artifacts, treasures and secret books of techniques, and finally the several items at the bottom of the box." The auctioneer said and clapped his hands again.  , a dozen strong men pushed the trolleys up, and the stage was suddenly colorful and dazzling.  .

    Each trolley is filled with various spiritual stones, but the quality is different.  Inferior spiritual stones are like crystal stones of different colors, with a shimmer on the surface and a relatively turbid texture.  The halo emitted by low-grade spiritual stones is relatively dim, and there are also impurities in the spiritual stones.  Medium-grade spiritual stones are much brighter, and their texture is clearer and more beautiful than cut gemstones.  As for the three pineapple-sized spiritual stones placed on a trolley, they seemed to be three blazing light groups, with dense spiritual energy lingering around them in substantial smoke. They were beautiful and obviously high-grade spiritual stones.

    "So many spiritual stones? Did someone rob a certain spiritual stone mine? Or did they steal the warehouse of Lu Tianjian?" Tie Heng looked at so many spiritual stones on the stage and secretly clicked his tongue.

    Lingshi is classified as a strategic material by the imperial court. Most of the Lingshi veins in China are owned by the imperial court. Private mining is not allowed. Once discovered, it will be punished as a crime of treason.  This approach is equivalent to controlling most of the magicians in the world in disguise.

    Under normal circumstances, in addition to the war preparation storage, the imperial court will allocate part of the spirit stones to major universities, and the other part will be distributed to the Lu Tianjian in various places. They will sell the spirit stones according to the situation in each place and circulate freely in the market.  The last part is used as a reward or reward for magicians who surrender to the imperial court. The amount is quite generous and can win people's hearts.

    "There are also three such large high-grade spiritual stones. Where did they get them? I'm getting more and more curious." Tie Heng calculated the total value of these spiritual stones and was a little eager to try them.

    Spirit stones are divided into five grades in total, namely inferior, low grade, medium grade, top grade and the best grade.  The average magician can only use low- to medium-grade ones, and a high-level alchemist like Feng Shiyou only has seven or eight high-grade spiritual stones in his collection.  Gein's high-grade spiritual stones were the real strategic resources that the imperial court said.

    There is a high tower built in every city in the China of Middle-earth. The size of ordinary cities is average, and it is called Star Reaching.  The border fortress or the larger one in Ayutthaya was named Wangyue.  And there is a unique tall tower in the capital, Shangjing, which is so majestic and huge that it is named Sheri.

    These high towers are not for people to climb up and play. They are all equipped with giant war weapons, which can be used to protect the city, shield and suppress demons or invading foreign enemies. They are the most important defensive weapons for the people of the Celestial Dynasty in the past dynasties.  To activate these war weapons, a large number of high-grade spiritual stones are needed, which leads to their scarcity.  As for the best spiritual stone, it is something that can be encountered but cannot be sought.

    "Feng Shiyou will reward a lot of spirit stones every month, and the school will also reward some. I can also buy some from outside. However, these spirit stones are only enough for daily practice. With the practice of making tools and various experiments, I am a little nervous.  . And after Xiyu's transformation is completed, new types of bullets will have to be made, which will consume a lot of money. Well, since you have this opportunity, buy more and save them to avoid running out of them." Tie Heng was determined.  It¡¯s decided, let¡¯s start bidding with ease.

    Among this batch of spiritual stones, inferior spiritual stones are mainly inferior, accounting for half of the quantity.  But they have basically no effect on Tie Heng, and the leftover materials from these spiritual stone mines are relatively easy to buy on the market. Tie Heng's target is mainly low-grade and medium-grade spiritual stones.

    After some fierce bidding, Tie Heng finally paid 3,700 gold for two carts of low-grade spiritual stones, and 7,400 gold for a cart of medium-grade spiritual stones. He gritted his teeth and spent a lot of money.  Nine thousand five hundred gold bought a high-grade fire attribute spiritual stone.

    When the deacon of the auction house brought three carts of spiritual stones to his box with a few strong servants, Tie Heng paid the money, and the gold ticket in his hand suddenly shrank by a quarter.

    "What does it mean to spend money like running water? This is it. How much effort does it take? It's nearly 20,000 gold!" Tie Heng muttered softly.  Although the money came easily, spending it so lavishly still made him feel a lot of pain.  Fortunately, there were a lot of spiritual stones in front of him, which made Tie Heng feel a lot more balanced.

    "This is a good thing! Although its real value is for use in war weapons or large magic circles, it can also be used when making weapons, such as refining metals. This fire attribute spiritual stone is the best  energy." Tie Heng held the high-grade fire attribute spirit stone in both hands, and gently rubbed his palms on the surface of the spirit stone, feeling the dispersion.The huge aura and warm breath that came in made him look like he couldn't put it down.

    "What a good thing! What a good thing! I need to get more of these good things." Tie Heng sighed with a smile, took out his storage bag and put away a lot of spiritual stones.

    After the spiritual stones were auctioned, it was the turn of various tools, alchemy or cultivation materials. Tie Heng found that Hu Zhenyu over there seemed to be purchasing some medicinal materials for alchemy, so he deliberately raised the price for him.  What he did was not very obvious, but it cost Hu Zhenyu at least thousands of gold coins in unjust money.

    During this process, Tie Heng also bought a bag of star sand for 2,300 gold, which is the main material for refining star beads. Tie Heng plans to refine 108 finished star beads first to cooperate with the Great Zhou Tian Xing Luo.  Mantra to improve the effectiveness of your meditation.

    The auction of various materials took almost three quarters of an hour, and the last thing that appeared was Tie Heng¡¯s main target this time, a piece of geomagnetic heavy iron the size of a pumpkin.  Its weight was astonishing, and even with several talismans affixed to its surface to reduce its weight, it still took three strong men to carry it onto the auction stage and place it on an iron-wood table.

    "This is the last item in the material auction. It is the top-quality geomagnetic heavy iron obtained from a depth of more than 300 feet underground in Anzhou's Moshan Iron Mine. Take a look at its appearance. Generally, geomagnetic heavy iron is blue-grey in color and has high quality.  The better ones are dark blue, but this piece is black and translucent, and it is the best among them." The auctioneer said that without saying that, he took a handful of goose feathers from a maid next to him and approached the geomagnetic weight.  Tie, threw the goose feather in his hand towards it.

    The goose feathers that were supposed to be slowly falling in the air, as soon as they came within half a foot of the geomagnetic heavy iron, immediately seemed to be soaked in water and fell straight down to the table.  The auctioneer also went up and blew air on a few goose feathers on the ground, but they could no longer float and lay flat on the table, motionless.  Many knowledgeable people in the audience became slightly commotion and talked about it.

    "Did you all our guests see it? Ordinary geomagnetic heavy iron does not have such a strong gravity field and magnetic force. Okay, that's it for the introduction. Next, we will start the auction." The auctioneer cleared his throat.  He announced loudly: "A piece of top-quality geomagnetic heavy iron. The base price is eight thousand gold. Each increase in price must not be less than two hundred gold. Let's start bidding now."

    "Eight thousand two!"

    "Eight thousand four!"

    "Eight thousand eight!"

    "Ten thousand red money!"

    The price of this piece of geomagnetic heavy iron exceeded 10,000 gold as soon as it came up, and the bidding kept rising. It was the first time that there was a crazy scramble for this auction, causing many people in the audience to give up bidding.  , which also gave them the mentality of watching a show. As the quotations came one after another, they followed them like a clamor, and for a while, the venue was filled with hustle and bustle.

    Tie Heng leaned back quietly on his chair, his expression as usual, and he was not in a hurry to bid.  He had already expected such a fierce scene.  Geomagnetic heavy iron is not only the main material for refining gravity rings, but can also be used in many defensive magic weapons. After all, gravity fields and the power of metamagnetism are good things. They are very effective against flying objects such as arrows and hidden weapons, and even  It can also absorb or repel attacks from magic weapons and precious phantoms.  On the other hand, adding some geomagnetic heavy iron to attack-type magic weapons or precious phantoms can also increase their sturdiness and add several special abilities.  Moreover, geomagnetic heavy iron of average quality is rare, let alone such a top-quality piece.  Therefore, many people who know the goods here want to take it into their pockets.

    In the blink of an eye, the bidding price exceeded 15,000 gold. This figure cooled down the madness of many people. Some people who had been sober earlier had given up the competition and watched on the sidelines.  After a while, there were only a few customers who dared to bid.

    One of them is Hu Zhenyu, the other has an old voice, but is full of energy, and seems to be an elderly martial arts master.  The last person is a woman. Her voice is soft and melodious, but also full of majesty. She is obviously a strong woman who has been in a high position all year round.

    "Eighteen thousand and one!"

    "Eighteen thousand three!"

    "Twenty thousand!" The three of them kept raising their bids, and the competition became fierce. But as the woman firmly bid 20,000 yuan, the voices of Hu Zhenyu and the old man suddenly stopped.

    Obviously, this price has exceeded the psychological bottom line of the two people, so they had to withdraw from the competition unwillingly.

    Just when everyone thought the transaction would be completed at this price, Tie Heng finally spoke.

    "Twenty thousand one!"

    There was a moment of silence in the venue, then a roar, and then the excitement started again.

    "Twenty-one thousand and five!" The woman's voice was filled with surprise. This price actually exceeded the value of the geomagnetic heavy iron.

    "Twenty-three thousand!" Tie Heng's increase in price seemed determined to win, which made the woman hesitate for a moment before speaking again.

    "Twenty-three thousand five thousand!"

     "Twenty-five thousand!" Tie Heng tried his best to suppress his words, which still sounded ordinary and did not reveal his inner impatience.  He will never let go of this top-grade geomagnetic heavy iron, but he also doesn't want to be overpriced, because he will need to spend too much money in the future, but his income is very limited.

    Fortunately, the woman did not bid again. After three countdowns, Tie Heng succeeded in bidding, which made him breath a big sigh of relief.

    "Dear mother, one hundred and two hundred and five!" Tie Heng was a little unhappy with this number, but he couldn't add more money!  I could only admit it with a tight chest.

    The servant at the auction house brought the geomagnetic heavy iron to his box. Tie Heng bled profusely again and had spent most of the gold tickets on him.  This put him in a bad mood, and he waved his hand and drove out a few servants. However, the deacon, who was responsible for delivering the spirit stones to Tie Heng just now, seemed to have something to do and did not leave immediately.

    The deacon nodded and bowed to Tie Heng, and politely handed him a silver belt. After listening to his explanation again, Tie Heng understood that the other party was considering his wealth and wanted to consolidate him as a repeat customer.  , this silver medal is equivalent to proof of a regular customer. Not only can you enjoy a 10% discount when buying things at the black market or black market auction house in Tianfeng City, but there are also such black markets in some Tongdu cities in other state capitals.  It is also closely related to this place. Tie Heng can also get certain special treatment when he goes to those places.

    "Well, this is still a chain company, and there are franchise stores in other places. Regular customers can also enjoy VIP treatment, which is amazing!" As soon as the deacon left, Tie Heng muttered with his lips curled up.

    After putting away the silver medal and stroking the geomagnetic heavy iron happily for a long time, Tie Heng returned to paying attention to the auction below.  There were no more lots that he was interested in, and he stayed here purely to continue to cause trouble for Hu Zhenyu.
