Heaven, Earth, Me - Volume 3

Chapter 552. The Brilliant Auction House. Unveiling the Open Market.

Carbira walked beside Yasenia further into the auction house and asked. "How are you, Lady Yasenia? Did the injuries from the battle heal?"

Yasenia nodded. "I didn't suffer harsh wounds. But my girls had to stay at home to recuperate."

Carbira looked at Tatyana, and her eyes crossed, showing confusion.

Tatyana smiled. "Although it is a bit embarrassing, I was knocked out at the beginning of the battle. My injuries are not as deep as those of my sisters who fought for the Matriarch. I'm ashamed."

Carbira gave a few words of worry because she knew how much Yasenia loved these humans. "Either way, if you fainted, the injury to the head should be significant. Unless your master calls, you should rest and recover."

Tatyana sincerely smiled. "Thank you for your concern, Lady Carbira. I'm mostly healed."

The thanks were naturally honest since beast humans thinking about human well-being was rare.

Yasenia asked. "Well, Hanna told me today's Auction will be slightly different. How is it so?"

Carbira began explaining. "The participation and items to be sold are many. Although there was a test for you, it was because you asked to participate in the last and most influential test. In truth, as long as you had magic-ranked items, participating was not a problem."

Carbira commented. "There are almost twenty thousand items to be auctioned and almost one hundred thousand that can be directly bought today."

Cecile was surprised. "So many?"

Carbira smiled. "For so many items, there needs to be a change, or else, people will have their ears ringing and the auctioneers with parched throats for shouting so many items, hahaha."

"The leader hence came with this method. Instead of a closed auction, he made it similar to an open market. We've priced everything that can be sold directly and also prices the minimum offer for other items so that people know how much it will cost."

Carbira took out a jade slip and gave it to Yasenia. "This is the catalog that we've kept hidden until today. The main reason for that is to give a sense of urgency. With so many items, people will scurry around quickly to select the ones they like."

"For today's auction, the price range will be from mid-level Magic to Low-level Earth ranked treasures."

Cecile frowned, something Carbira's cute vertical eyes didn't miss.

Carbira smiled. "Lady Cecile, don't worry. If that quality is too low for you, there is a reason to participate."

Yasenia lifted an eyebrow. "Oh? Please do tell."

Carbira spoke proudly. "We've also placed two of your lowest-level items on sale. Even then, they are Heaven-ranked, so they'll be the main attraction today. This will help spread the name around as these 'Starred Treasures' receive a lot of attention."

Yasenia nodded nonchalantly. "When does the event open to the public? I saw quite a multitude outside."

Carbira tilted her head. "Is it not to your liking, Lady Yasenia?"

"It's not like that. Even if we just sold the top five treasures, we would gain enough attention. Hence, it was a redundant action. Moreover, the people that this will spread to are low-level ones, for the most part. However, it is not bad at all. Like placing a cherry on an already delicious cake."

Carbira chuckled at the example, but it sounded very fitting.

"You can continue explaining. How does this open market-style auction help? Or what kind of things should we take in mind?"
