Chapter 207: It’s not black enough, how can it be called a black market
Alice is holding a big black cloth bag, which contains the Troll-Eyed Monster ① after Ihuson terminated the contract, which was sealed by Bing Zhixie After gaining strength, he was tossed around like a ball by Alice, still feeling angry at being deceived.
Bing Zhixie is holding the set of dark armor. This set of armor is very good and should be sold for a good price. If it doesn't fit, it would be fine for Alice to wear.
"Master, where can we sell?"
"Magic Trading Market."
The World of Warcraft Market is not a vegetable market. It has very strict and standardized management. Those guys who are locked in special cages are not all 'doll'-like pets. Many of them are extremely ferocious and bloodthirsty beasts. Out of control, they will slaughter the world.
Generally, the regular World of Warcraft market is divided into six areas, four of which are warrior, knight, magician, and warlock areas. These are dedicated to some Warcraft that are more suitable for these professions. The other two are a comprehensive area and a domestic pet area. The monsters in the domestic pet area are those that do not require contracts and can be regularly trained to become helpers, such as goblins and mud squirrels. In addition, occasionally there will be a special area, which is to deal with some special monsters or very powerful and precious guys.
Danluer's Warcraft Market is a closed underground square. Several large entrances to the square are guarded by senior government guards around the clock to prevent out-of-control Warcraft from rushing out. The patrols in the World of Warcraft Market are not to mention.
Although it is on the ground, the market is not dark. The light crystals like stars are embedded in the magic array on the ceiling, reflecting the underground world as if it were daytime.
“Wow~!” Alice saw so many kinds of monsters and immediately forgot about her unhappiness in the morning. She was amazed, but still a little scared. The monster in the big iron cage stared at the people passing by with its big copper-bell-like eyes. When she looked at them, she was not frightened, and tightly grasped Bing Zhixie's right hand. The sleeve corner asked: "What kind of monster is this?"
Bing Zhixie glanced at the ferocious beast that was locked in an arm-thick iron cage and said: "The Red Beast of Skeles."
"Red beast? Why is it called the red beast? I see it clearly It's black." Alice always likes to ask questions when she has questions.
Bing Zhixie explained: "Skles is the name of the first person to discover it. The red beast is because its hair glows red at night."
"It turns out that That's it." Alice looked at other things.
Almost all the monsters here are locked in cages made of black iron. This hard and strong metal is the best material for cages. With the binding magic array carved on it, Almost no monsters can escape from it.
Bing Zhixie took Alice to the dark department of the magician area. Although the troll eye monster is not a main dark type of Warcraft, its light-hating characteristics can only be bettered by dark magicians. Good use it.
Alice has been covering her nose not long after entering the Warcraft Market. The place is not dirty, but it is very smelly. Even though some people clean up the World of Warcraft poop from time to time, the mixed smells that remain are really... It's hard to breathe. Fortunately, the World of Warcraft market here is relatively standardized. There are a lot of wind crystals laid out and the ventilation is good, so people don't faint from the stench.
Looking for a random store, Alice asked: "Boss, do you accept Warcraft?" She shook the big ball-shaped cloth bag in her hand.
The store owner glanced at the cloth bag in Alice's hand. The bag is bulging, but irregular, like a round ball covered with many small apples and grapes. That's because the small eyeballs next to the troll eye monster stand out.
“Is this a troll-eyed monster?” The store owner guessed the monster inside without even looking or touching it.
"It's amazing. You deserve to be in this line of work." Alice praised.
"As for the troll-eyed monster..." the store owner thought for a while and said: "This thing is good, but it is not easy to sell. The requirements for users are too harsh. It can be sold for a lot of money. The price is good, but it is difficult to sell it. If you must sell it to me, I can only charge one-third of the price, which is about 12,000 gold coins.”
Alice. Said: "One third is too little."
The store owner shook his head and said: "It's not just me, other people's prices are just this price, and basically they may not charge it. Troll-eyed monster Take it in, I don’t know what year or month it will be sold, but the price is already good.”
Alice looked at Bing Zhixie inquiringly, but Bing Zhixie didn’t say anything.
Seeing her hesitation, the store owner said, "Well, let me tell you, today happens to be the quarterly auction meeting of the Danluer underground black market. If you go there, if they are willing to auction this thing, you might be able to get a good price."
"Black Market!" Love Liz asked: "Aren't you afraid of being caught when opening a black market?"
The store owner smiled: "Hey, you might be caught in other places, but here, the black market for underground transactions..." He didn't He continued talking and just said: "The things we took in the black market Many of them were stolen, robbed, or stolen by others, and they won’t ask you where they came from. It’s a good place to sell dirty things.”
Bingzhi smiled evilly and asked: "You shouldn't leave your name in a place like this, right? ?”
“You don’t have to keep it if you want, but they will charge a lot more for the transaction.” The store owner said: “The location is across the street, and the auction is held at ten o’clock in the morning. It’s half the beginning. If you want to go, go quickly.”
After Alice thanked her, she followed Bing Zhixie and left immediately. This anonymous transaction method is exactly what Bing Zhixie wants. He doesn't worry about whether the black market will take pictures of their things. With Alice's Eye of the Abyss, it's not too late for them to beg for help, and by the way You can also sell the armor to avoid having to find another buyer.
After finding the auction house and registering the items to be auctioned, the registrar treated them as honored guests and invited them to the reception room, greeting them with good cigarettes and tea, for fear that they would leave.
After a while, the registrar called for the steward of the auction. The manager was very surprised: "You want to auction the Eye of the Abyss?" Being addressed in such a surprised tone, Alice said happily: "Yes, don't we look alike?"
"No, no, no, no, I don't mean to look down on you." The manager said: "Why did you sell such a powerful monster as the Eye of the Abyss?"
Bing Zhixie said: "Don't you guys ask these questions here?"
"Of course, of course, if you don't want to say it, I won't ask either." The manager said: "To get such a good Warcraft auction, We don't want it, but we still need to explain the rules clearly to you first. The auction methods here are divided into real-name auctions and anonymous auctions. For name auctions and real-name auctions, we will take a commission of one thousand plus five percent of the auction proceeds, and we have to ask you about the origin of the goods and your real name. We cannot take this risk. If it is anonymous, we will do nothing. Ask, but the risk of this world situation is to take 10,000 plus 25% of the auction proceeds as commission. Then we will bear all the burden for you. If someone comes to trace it, we will not tell who sold it to you. Just rest assured."
Alice took a breath. Liangqi: "Twenty-five percent, a quarter, so much?"
The manager said: "You need to know Dao, many of our buyers and sellers come from shady sources. Maybe something was obtained illegally. We have to bear this risk, and the fees charged are of course very high. If you don't want to, you can use your real name. "< br>
Bing Zhixie did not agree directly, but asked: "Buyer?"
The manager smiled and said: "Yes, we charge both ways here. We have to collect money when you sell things, and if you buy things anonymously, we also have to collect money separately. You may not know that we sell a lot of things here, even Including some of that stuff for sale. The person who bought it doesn’t want people to know who bought it.”
“Wow, wow, wow,” Alice shook her head and said, “You guys are so profitable. Come on, you will charge 50% of the money for every purchase and sale!”
The steward said: "It's not fifty percent, it's forty percent. We only charge an additional fifteen percent to the buyer."
Alice shouted: " That's quite dark. If you sell something for one million, you can get 420,000. It’s really dark.”
“Otherwise, how can we call it a black market?” The manager laughed: “We bear all the risks, and the fees charged are certainly high. We don’t buy or sell. Is it all up to you? ”
Alice had nothing to say.
"Okay." Bing Zhixie agreed: "We will auction anonymously."
Hearing what he said, the manager was of course even more happy: "Don't worry, we will definitely take care of you. The Eye of the Abyss fetched a good price, one you can’t even imagine It’s a good price.”
“Of course.” Alice said, “The more you shoot, the more you get.”
The manager smiled: “So this is called a win-win situation. . But before the auction, we still need to inspect the goods.”
Naturally, the two of them had no objections.
After inspecting the goods, the manager wrote three notes to them: "The auction is over tonight, you can use this to withdraw money."
"At night?"
"Yes." The manager said: "Our quarterly There are a lot of things to be auctioned, and it may not be finished until seven or eight o'clock in the evening. Do you want to go in and participate in the auction? Customers can enter for free."
Bing Zhixie thought for a while. Shaking his head: "No, forget it."
Alice said: "Why? Maybe there will be good things in the auction?"
The manager also said hurriedly: "There are definitely many high-quality things in the monthly auction. I missed it. The chance is gone.”
Bing Zhixie still refused to go and took the three auction items. Alice also came forward and took a look: "Three pieces of waste paper just sent us away? What if you don't give us the money after selling it? Isn't it right to take advantage of others?"
Management Laughing: "No. The business we are in, the business of eating, if we eat black and white, Who is still selling things here? You also said that we can get up to 40% for one thing. Who would give up countless 40% for one thing?”
< br>Alice heard that what he said made sense, so she was willing to leave with Bing Zhixie.
Outside the auction house, Alice asked again: "Master, he just said he would find a way to sell our Eye of the Abyss for a good price. What can he do?"
Bing Zhixie looked at it Alice glanced at her and said, "Let's ask a few people in line to raise the price, and this thing will grow. Basically all auctions will use this trick."
Alice sighed. : "It is indeed a black market, I finally saw it.”
