【Chapter 7, Auction】

There were five floors in the auction venue. Senior Brother Qi quickly grabbed three tickets and led the two of them to find a seat.

Xie Mingzhe observed the surroundings curiously - the holographic scene looked particularly lifelike, and the faces of the people sitting around him were all clear, but it was not clear whether they were real faces or those randomly created in the game.

Due to the increasing number of players entering, the auction venue was automatically upgraded, adding two more floors to the original five floors. Obviously, today's auction house is very popular, tickets are sold out, and the system automatically expands the capacity.

The entire seven floors were quickly filled up.

The crowded auction venue was more lively than a movie theater on the first day of the Lunar New Year in the Earth Age.

The hands of the clock pointed to half past three in the afternoon. Once the time came, all entrances to the auction venue were closed.

The lights in the hall suddenly went out, and only the warm-colored lights lit up on the stage in the middle. A 40-centimeter-wide virtual LCD screen appeared on the chair backs in front of all the audience at the same time. The stage in the middle was enlarged and displayed on the LCD screen, so Even if you sit in a corner, you won't have to worry about not being able to see clearly.

A hot curly-haired beauty walked to the middle of the venue on high heels and said with a smile: "Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, today's auction is about to begin! The list of auction items has been sent to the electronic screen in front of you. Which item do you want? If you are interested in the product, you can pay attention in advance!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a list of auction items appeared on the electronic screen in front of him.

The items being auctioned today include four cards and ten shops.

The specific value of the card is not shown on the list, only the texture, color and star rating on the back of the card are shown. There are two four-star cards, one five-star card, and a seven-star black card that seems to be very precious.

Xie Mingzhe waited for the next good show with strong curiosity.

"The first auction is for the shops. Please look at the overhead view of the shop locations on the screen." The auctioneer introduced with a smile, "The ten shops are all located in the southern section of the newly opened commercial street, close to the black market. The shop area is 50 square meters, with convenient transportation and good passenger flow. The volume is very stable, and the starting price is 10,000 gold coins for monthly rent!"

"The auction for the first one will start now!"

There is no division into regions in this game. Xie Mingzhe speculates that it may be because cloud storage technology can achieve huge data calculations. Tens of thousands of players crowded into the same venue at today's auction, and there was no lag at all. Even everyone's appearance was clear and identifiable. Wow, this server is really awesome. If one could be moved to the earth in the 21st century, it would definitely instantly solve the problem of guild wars in online games where people are stuck.

Since all players are in the same area and the number of shops is limited, new players will face the embarrassment of not being able to rent a shop. Therefore, the game operator will open a new commercial street every month and rent out the shops to those who want to do business. people.

Some players who have lost money in business and do not want to continue operating can also take back the previously rented shop for auction. The government regulates store rents based on the market. This method can maintain the stability of the game's business system and prevent a large number of store closures and an economic collapse.
