481: Big Sale
The steward in the center of the great hall, Guo Ying, lifted the black cloth, revealing a page of the Golden Book beneath it.
This page of the Golden Book was not only folded but also protected by a very powerful Restriction; the method to remove it would only be given to the buyer after someone successfully bid on it.
If one were to rashly attempt to break it without the method, or try to use underhanded means to peek at the Great Dao Text and annotations within... it would only cause this page of the Golden Book to instantly turn into ashes!
This was the method of the Rare Treasure Appreciating Conference, ensuring that no one would take risks or cause trouble while the Great Dao Text was being auctioned.
Guo Ying gave a simple explanation of this Great Dao Text, keeping silent about the detailed information, and then let the people below begin bidding.
"Bing? I don't seem to have ever heard of this character..."
"I want this 'Bing'! 1100 supreme-grade creation crystal!"
"I want it too! 1200 supreme-grade creation crystal!"
"I bid 1300!"
The price of this Great Dao Text was rising like a rocket, and Li Qi, sitting upright in his private room, was suddenly beaming with joy.
Wasn't this much easier than the bitter struggle of producing and trading goods back in the Divine Firmament World?
Just sitting here doing nothing, and a large amount of supreme-grade creation crystal were flying into his hands continuously!
Soon, a gentle female voice came from the private room next to Li Qi.
"This 'Bing' character is much to my liking; 2000 supreme-grade creation crystal!"
As soon as the voice fell, the people present immediately fell silent. 2000 supreme-grade creation crystal was already very expensive; if they continued to raise the price, they would be acting like fools, so no one continued to follow up.
Soon, this Great Dao Text fell into the hands of the woman in the adjacent room, and Li Qi's hands gained another 2000 supreme-grade creation crystal.
Li Qi was beaming with joy. He glanced at the adjacent room and thought to himself that, as expected, women's money was easier to earn.
Restrictions were set up between the private rooms, so sight could not penetrate through. Outsiders could not see what kind of woman was inside; only the sound during the bidding could be transmitted out.
There were nearly one hundred private rooms surrounding the entire great hall, and there were people in each one of them. They were both distinguished guests of the Rare Treasure Appreciating Conference and people who could participate in the bidding.
Li Qi did not know who the woman next door was, but he didn't care. As long as she was willing to spend a large amount of money to buy his items... she was a good person!
Good people have flat chests for life!
The first Great Dao Text was sold, and immediately came the second, which was also provided by Li Qi.
"The second Great Dao Text... 'Yi'!"
"The price is also the same, 1000 supreme-grade creation crystal!"
The previous [Huan] was an obscure character, and this [Yi] was also an obscure character. Moreover, it had a rich meaning, which immediately caused a scramble among the crowd, eventually selling for 2100 supreme-grade creation crystal.
The Rare Treasure Appreciating Conference arranged all of Li Qi's Great Dao Text at the beginning, which made Li Qi very satisfied.
And that unknown woman in the adjacent room spent a large amount of money to buy four of his Great Dao Text, which made Li Qi feel slightly surprised.
It didn't take too long for all 12 Great Dao Text provided by Li Qi to be bought, and he had made a huge profit.
The transaction price for the obscure characters was around 2000 supreme-grade creation crystal, while common characters were cheaper. These 12 Great Dao Text provided Li Qi with a full 20,000 supreme-grade creation crystal!
And these 20,000 supreme-grade creation crystal were just the auction transaction price. According to the agreement, there would be a half-price compensation from Chen Rufeng's side... which meant there was another 10,000 supreme-grade creation crystal in income!
Adding it all up, and deducting a small transaction fee, it was 30,000 supreme-grade creation crystal!
Before long, this huge sum of creation crystal stones was handed to Li Qi by the steward.
"Master Li, this is your creation crystal stones, please keep it safe."
Li Qi nodded with a smile, becoming more and more satisfied with the Rare Treasure Appreciating Conference. Not only was their speed of handling things fast, but they didn't pull any tricks—it was straightforward!
His transactions had all ended, and the creation crystal stones were in hand, so Li Qi did not linger. After greeting the steward, he walked towards the outside and quickly left this small island in the lake.
However, at the same time Li Qi left, several guests in the center of the golden great hall exchanged glances, and then quietly left the place as well.
After the three experts of the Dao Source Realm left the small island in the lake, they immediately locked onto Li Qi's trail and followed him all the way.
"I saw it with the Mirror Dao; just now a steward... handed a large sum of creation crystal stones to the kid in front!"
"That's the kid in front who sold many Great Dao Text!"
"Hehe! I want the Great Dao Text on him, and his creation crystal stones... I want those too!"
These three were all experts of the Dao Source Realm. They did not participate in this Rare Treasure Appreciating Conference to join the auction, but to find fat sheep suitable for them to take action against!
People who participated in the Rare Treasure Appreciating Conference were either very rich or carried heavy treasures. They could not easily take action against those powerful leaders with extraordinary backgrounds, so the lone Li Qi naturally entered their line of sight.
"He is right in front, running outside Gu Yong City!"
"Cannot let him escape!"
"Chase!"
