Chapter 7
The Auction Show, Apparently Turned into a Business War!

Both sides continued to raise the price while simultaneously trying to figure out each other's background,

and trying to scare each other!

“I'm working with Shan Ge's team, you little punk! If you dare to compete with me for this weapon, you'll never be able to do business again!”

“Haha, who are you trying to scare? Shan Ge's team? I frequently work with Nai Zong's team, and I supply most of their family's materials,”

“I think you're trying to get out of this business, aren't you?”

“You're talking to me about connections? You're not even worthy!”

“195,000!”

“198,000! Let's see how much clout you really have!”

The thousands of fans in Lao Wang's live stream were finally getting their money's worth!

The public chat in the live stream was a far better show than Lao Wang's inventory review!

“This is way more entertaining than enchanting summons, right?”

“This is a once-in-a-lifetime brawl! This is the classic case of ‘competition breeds animosity’!”

Even Lao Wang, who was diligently managing inventory for his boss, put down his work,

and started watching the “brawl” in the public chat!

“Alright, alright! You're in for it! You'll see! I won't let you get away with this!”

“What's this? Are you new to this business? Have you never heard of me? You're messing with the wrong guy!”

“Damn it! You're the one who snatched that 140 level non-degraded weapon from me last time! I still haven't settled that score with you!”

“Today, I'm going to settle the old score and the new score all at once!”

There are countless Dream players, and half of them come to Lao Wang for appraisal!

Many people know that Wang Yi Han got his start by doing appraisals. So, many people come to him for an appraisal when they decide to quit the game.

At the same time, many people find it convenient to entrust Lao Wang with their inventory for advertising and sales when they quit.

So, Lao Wang's live stream sometimes serves as a small but significant equipment and baby pet trading market,

and it's normal for merchants to be lurking in the live stream looking for bargains.

However, the last time the merchant named “Dong Shan”

had agreed on a price for a weapon with a boss who was about to quit the live stream, he was ready to make the trade,

but the boss suddenly changed his mind and decided not to sell the weapon to him.

But a week later, Dong Shan saw the same 140 level non-degraded weapon on Treasure Pavilion, the seller was the boss in front of him, “Full-Server Weapon Resources”!

So Dong Shan immediately understood what was going on!

It was obvious that this was a case of someone jumping in at the last minute and stealing the deal!

“Full-Server Weapon Resources” was a total scoundrel,

Stealing deals is an act that is greatly looked down upon in the industry, and it makes people feel disgusted.

So, “Full-Server Weapon Resources” wasn't exactly a good name in the business and many people avoided him because of his behavior.

But fate had them meeting again over Lin Shan’s weapon!

“Truly, enemies never meet by chance!”

“So, it was my fault? The one who offers the highest price gets the weapon, it's the boss's choice, what does it have to do with me?”

“Alright! Since you're such a scoundrel, I'm going to teach you a lesson this time!”

The public chat in the live stream was buzzing with excitement!

Many iron fans who loved to watch the drama directly shouted, “Bring out the beer, soda, snacks and more!”

“The main event of the year is about to begin, don't miss it!”

These two weapon merchants refused to back down from each other, it seemed like this time they were really going all out!

“Cut the crap, let's settle this with our wallets!”

“I'm going to see how much you're really worth!”

The bidding price, which started at 180,000, had steadily climbed to 198,000 in just half an hour through their continuous bickering and price increases.

The melon eaters in the live stream were ecstatic!

“Boss Dong Shan! Keep going! We hate him! Look at him acting like a petty king!”

“Go for it! You have to beat him!”

Most of the fans in the live stream were supporting the weapon merchant named Dong Shan,

but there were also a few who were supporting “Full-Server Weapon Resources”!

“Money talks! If the price is higher, it's all good! Go for broke!”

As time passed, an hour was almost up,

and neither of them had yet yielded!

“200,000 plus 1,000! I refuse to lose to you!”

“I'll add 2,000! Better to fight than to give in!”

Seeing them going back and forth, Lin Shan almost laughed out loud,

The price of 200,000 plus 2,000 had basically squeezed the profit margin to its limit for merchants,

If they were lucky, they could sell it within half a month or a month and make a profit,

but if it sat on their hands for more than three months, it would turn into a losing deal!

After all, 200,000 was no small sum. Even if you deposited it in the bank with the lowest interest rate,

you'd get a good amount of interest in three months. But tying up that much money on a single weapon would severely affect their cash flow.

Originally, Boss Dong Shan had planned to get the weapon for under 200,000,

but he didn't expect to encounter a rival who was deliberately trying to raise the price, so the price skyrocketed to over 200,000!

At this point, the few fans in the live stream were praising “Full-Server Weapon Resources” as if he was a god.

While he knew that this price didn't leave any profit margin, in fact, it even posed a risk of losing money.

But he couldn't let himself lose face in front of thousands of fans because of this deal.

So he offered a price of 200,500 yuan dragon coins!

He thought that the other party would inevitably offer a higher price, and he thought that this price war wouldn't end so easily.

But to his surprise, after he offered his price, there was no response from the other side!

“What? Are you scared?”

“Keep going! Why are you backing down?”

Seeing that there was no response from “Dong Shan” in the public chat, “Full-Server Weapon Resources” started to panic!

His biggest fear was that the other party would suddenly refuse to play!

Or, he wondered if he was falling into a trap!

“Where'd he go? Did he run away? Why isn't he bidding anymore?”

Faced with constant ridicule, Boss Dong Shan did not retaliate,

he just casually said,

“If I go any higher, wouldn't I be an idiot?”

The public chat in the live stream erupted in laughter!

The price of 200,500 was indeed like the damage of the weapon, it was basically at the ceiling!

Stopping rationally did help Boss Dong Shan avoid losses,

but it didn't make him lose face in front of everyone,

As the auction ended, “Resources” and Lin Shan were brought onto the microphone by the moderator to complete the transaction.

Even though “Full-Server Weapon Resources” went on the mic with a sob in his voice,

he couldn't go back on his word. After all, he was the one who raised the price little by little,

if he backed out, he would lose his credibility in this industry,

so he had to grit his teeth and pay Lin Shan!

“Your bank account ending in xxxx has received 200,500 yuan dragon coins!”

In just a few minutes, Lin Shan's bank account received the transfer,

So, now that Lin Shan had the money, he was planning to make a big splash in Lao Wang's live stream!
