"Wait a minute, I have a treasure, please see how much it can be appraised?" Claire shouted.
The guests at the scene were a little confused. They rarely saw this kind of thing, and they all turned their heads and looked in the direction of Claire.
However, the auctioneer has more than ten years of hosting experience, and this kind of thing is not uncommon. Sometimes some people even mortgage their territories and knights to them in order to get the auction items they want.
Not to mention customers like Claire who just took out their treasures to participate in the bidding.
"Yes, our auction house can provide this service." the auctioneer replied.
Then he shouted to the guests below, "The auction is temporarily suspended and will continue after the evaluation is completed."
The photographers below were in an uproar and started talking about it.
"Is there some inside information about Life Potion that we don't know? Why did the bid suddenly become so high this time? I could have bought three bottles of Life Potion on a regular basis."
"Fifteen million Gold Coins, I have never seen so much money in my life."
"This potion was made by Master Morey. The level is a bit higher than the other three masters, but after all, it is still a bottle of Life Potion. Fifteen million is too much."
"I don't know. Maybe this potion was newly developed by Master Morey? It might have other strange effects."
"That's not right. If this is really the case, the auctioneer will definitely explain it in advance. They can't hide this kind of money-making thing."
"Then I don't understand. Let's keep reading and see how much money Life Potion can be auctioned for, and who will win it in the end."
"Yeah, I'm also looking forward to how much this Life Potion will be sold for in the end."
The guests below were talking a lot, while the auctioneer on the stage trotted off the stage and ran towards the room where Claire was.
He knows more than just auctions. His main role in the auction house is to be an appraiser, and he is also one of the famous appraisers in the capital. The treasures that appear on the auction stage must pass through his eyes and be confirmed before they can be auctioned.
"Dong dong dong!"
There was a knock on the door, and Claire said softly, "Please come in!"
The auctioneer opened the door and came in. He was a little surprised when he saw Shane at first sight, but soon he bent down slightly and said respectfully, "Third Young Master Shane!"
"Master Ron." Shane also responded politely.
"Do you know each other?" Claire was a little surprised.
"Our family often does business at auctions, and over time we naturally become familiar with it." Shane explained.
Ron also smiled and nodded, focusing on Claire. The voice he heard when he was on the stage was not Shane. It seemed that the person who just shouted that voice should be this boy.
"Hello, distinguished guest, what is the treasure you want to appraise?" the auctioneer asked.
"A fruit..." Claire said, taking out a fist-sized fruit that was as red as a peach from Spatial Ring and handed it over.
Those were the miraculous fruits grown in Rona's backyard, and the one Claire took out was the largest one. The other smaller fruits were probably not very valuable and could not be sold for much money.
"This is..."
Ron carefully held the fruit over. Based on his many years of experience, it was not difficult to tell that it was a Magic Fruit. The magic power fluctuations emanating from it were much stronger than those of many Magic Fruits he had seen, and it also emitted a strange aura that surprised him. His intuition told him that this fruit was definitely not simple.
Claire explained, "The function of this fruit is to help advance. It can directly promote an ordinary Intermediate Mage to High Mage, or it can directly promote Silver Knight to the knight of Gold Rank..."
After listening to Claire's words, Ron's eyes almost gleamed, "Could this be God-Bestowed Fruit?"
In the legend of the human world, there is a fruit called, "God-Bestowed Fruit". After eating it, an ordinary person can be directly promoted to the level of Dharma Saint or Sword Saint. But that's just a legend, no one has seen it with their own eyes yet.
Ron took the fruit and looked at it carefully, his eyes full of excitement. He had never heard of this kind of fruit before.
"Can I have a taste?" Ron asked.
Claire nodded, observing it with the naked eye is indeed not as reliable as experiencing it in person.
Ron, who got the permission, gently poked off a little bit of the fruit's peel with his nails. From the outside, there was almost no damage.
Then he put the tiny bit of peel into his mouth and savored it with his eyes closed for a long time. Then Ron slowly opened his eyes. There seemed to be bright light shooting out of his eyes, and he was full of energy.
"It's exactly what you said, this fruit can help Intermediate Mage advance." Ron smacked his lips in reply.
"Then how much is this fruit worth?" Claire asked.
The fruit tree was planted in Rona's backyard. It seems that it should bear fruit every three to four months, so Claire didn't feel too bad about selling it.
Ron frowned and thought for a moment before replying, "Five million Gold Coins, about this price."
"Master Ron, he is a good friend of mine. You can't lower the price." Shane helped from the side.
"Master Shane, how dare I, I still paid the highest price." Ron said with a bitter look on his face, "Although this effect is indeed magical, no matter how you say it, its effect is only to improve Intermediate Mage to High Mage."
"Think about it, how many High Mages can be hired with five million Gold Coinss, and how many High Mages can be worth millions of Gold Coinss. If High Mages can be directly upgraded to the Archmage level, let alone five million, even 50 million can be given at our auction."
"You also know that there are no potions on the market that can help mages and warriors advance, and their prices are not that high. The main reason why we can pay five million is because it is just a fruit. Maybe it can have a greater effect after being made into potions."
"But you also know the risks involved. This fruit is a new variety that has never been seen before. It may fail during the production process. Our five million Gold Coins may be wasted."
"Okay." Claire stretched out his hand to stop the other party, "Five million is just five million, it's not unacceptable."
"But... even if it's five million, it's still the same as the other party. Do you still have money?" Shane asked.
Claire shook his head, "No more..." He shook his head, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said unexpectedly, "But I still have three fruits."
Claire With a touch of Spatial Ring, three fruits that were slightly smaller than before appeared in Claire's hands. Claire almost couldn't hold them with one hand.
"The effects of these three are not as great as the one just now, but they can also help junior mages advance to Intermediate Mage."
The moment Ron took out Claire, the pupils in his eyes instantly dilated several times, and he looked at Claire with a look of shock.
Being able to take out four fruits with this magical effect in a row, what does this mean? It means that this person either has a fruit tree with this fruit in his hand, or knows where this fruit tree grows! Otherwise, it would be impossible to have so many fruits at the same time.
However, Ron was not stupid enough to ask. Not to mention that auctions never ask customers about the origin of treasures. Just based on the relationship between Claire and Shane, and the fact that the owner of this room is Lady Sophia, we can know that Claire is not something that can be manipulated at will.
For this benefit, they cannot offend a distinguished customer who may have a huge background and make money by being friendly. They are an auction house, not a robber. A win-win situation is beneficial to both parties.
After the appraisal was completed, Ron confirmed that what Claire just said was not adulterated in the slightest, and could indeed allow junior mages to advance to the intermediate level.
Then he said, "I can give you one million Gold Coins for each of these three fruits."
Claire nodded, "Okay."
