Chapter 292 Lukong's Status among the Aboriginals

The next day.

The entrance of the Dawu City Auction House was crowded with people coming and going.

Most of them were natives, and a small number were players.

The Dawu City Auction, which was held once a month, was not open to everyone.

Even to enter, you needed to verify your capital.

For players, there were only a few who had more than 100 gold coins.

And the Dawu City Auction House naturally looked down on this amount of gold coins.

"If you want to participate in the auction, the minimum threshold is 5,000 gold coins. Customers with less than 5,000 gold coins do not have the ability to bid at the auction, and they are not the target customers of our auction."

These were the original words that Xu Tai said to Lu Kong.

5,000 gold coins are equivalent to 50 million real money!

This is just a threshold.

According to Xu Tai's introduction, there will be many members of big families from Dawu City and even other big cities at the auction.

These people can spend a lot of money for precious equipment, skill books and skill stones.

And the players who are qualified to join are also from big families and big forces.

For example, the Xuanniao Army, the Player Management Bureau, the Tianyue Group and the heads of other large families of the Daxia Group.

The change brought about by the invasion of demonic energy is that these large families and forces have converted a lot of money into gold coins and invested them in the game.

As time goes by, in the near future, real currency will definitely be replaced by gold coins.

The reason why it has not been replaced now is entirely because public beta testers now only account for a small part of the population.

If real currency is replaced, civilians who are not public beta testers may riot on the spot.

Even if the players' strength is enough to suppress it, this is not what a normal country would do.

Of course, Lu Kong has also seen in the official forum that in some small countries, after the regime was controlled by players, these players ignored the lives of ordinary people and linked real transactions with gold coins, causing the monetary system to collapse, and eventually ordinary people rioted, and the whole country fell into chaos.

There are even several such small countries!

And based on what happened during this period, the more chaotic the country is, the easier it is for demons to take advantage of it.

It is said that there are already signs that countries cannot resist the invasion of demonic energy.

The whole country may fall!

In this situation, Lu Kong heard from Xia Yan that the major countries in the world were communicating and planning to send a team of players to help.

Although this is not the affairs of one's own country, it is even a taboo to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.

However, the invasion of demonic energy is no longer a matter of national internal affairs.

If a country falls and becomes a paradise for demons, then the entire Yuanxing will be in danger!

The lips and teeth are cold.

According to Xia Yan, what needs to be determined now is only the action plan.

As for whether to take action, there is no doubt about it.

Even if those small countries oppose it, the big countries will definitely send a team of players to deal with it.

As for the big countries, although there is a trend of linking gold coins with real transactions.

However, these are limited to large families and areas that have little impact on real life, and are still within the controllable range.

Now, such a phenomenon has even appeared in reality.

If no one from a large family or a large force in reality enters the game, then this large family has already begun to be in a mess.

And if someone joins the game, then the status of this person in the large family and the large force will rise sharply.

Let's not talk about anything else, just take Xia Yan, she was originally just a princess, but now Emperor Xia is ready to pass the throne to her.

And from what Xia Yan said, she didn't even want to accept it!

In her opinion, after accepting the throne, the pressure is too great and she can't concentrate on playing games.

At that time, her strength improvement will definitely be affected.

This made Lu Kong feel familiar.

He thought about it, isn't this the state of mind when he was the president of the Great Xia Guild?

It turned out that Xia Yan also had this idea.

Even the imperial family is like this, and ordinary families are even more so.

Among the players who came to participate in the auction this time, perhaps many of them were not valued in the family.

Lu Kong stood in the VIP room high up in the auction house, looking at the players and natives who came in one after another below, his mind was full of thoughts.

Xu Tai stood beside Lu Kong with a respectful expression.

Logically speaking, as one of the directors of the auction house, he should now be busy with the hosting of the auction.

But for him, Lu Kong is more important, so he handed all these matters over to his trusted subordinates.

Lu Kong asked, "How long will the auction start?"

Xu Tai glanced at the time and replied, "It will take another half an hour."

Lu Kong nodded slightly.

He carefully read the list of items Xu Tai gave him yesterday.

The items were all of legendary quality or above, including several skill books, equipment and other items.

Nearly half of these items were given to Xu Tai by Lu Kong.

This made Lu Kong look a little weird when he saw the list.

However, there was a legendary warrior skill book and an epic scroll in the half he took out, which Lu Kong could use, so he came.

Lu Kong asked with some doubts, "Why didn't the owner of these skill books choose to trade with me privately?"

Hearing this, Xu Tai smiled bitterly and said, "It's like this, these two skill books are resources brought by another auction director, Andolong. I have negotiated with him before, but he refused to trade."

Hearing this, Lu Kong raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Andolong?"

Xu Tai said, "It's the supervisor I met in the office when you came to see me a few days ago."

Lu Kong suddenly realized.

Then he remembered that Andolong seemed to have invited him to go shopping before.

In his words, it seemed that he wanted to snatch Xu Tai's customers.

Hearing Xu Tai say that these auction items are related to their performance.

If he thinks about it this way, Lu Kong can understand.

It's just internal competition.

But it doesn't matter to Lu Kong.

At most, it will take a little time to participate in the auction.

Anyway, he hasn't participated yet, so just treat it as a try.

Not long after, the door of the VIP room was knocked.

Xu Tai walked over and opened the door with great tact.

Outside the door, it was Xia Yan's four daughters and Liu Qiang, Wang Bing and others.

They were brought here by the waiter.

Since they were participating in the auction, Lu Kong naturally let them come. Anyway, the VIP room was very large and there was no need to squeeze outside.

Xu Tai smiled at them, "Everyone, please come in."

Xia Yan and the others nodded slightly and walked in.

When they saw the luxurious decoration of the VIP room and the huge floor-to-ceiling windows facing the auction table, even Liu Qiang and Xia Yan opened their eyes slightly.

In reality, they have seen all kinds of luxurious scenes.

But in the game, this is the first time they have seen it.

Liu Qiang looked at the many natives and players under the floor-to-ceiling windows, and his heart was a little dazed for a while.

In these crowded people, each of them has a net worth of more than 5,000 gold coins. If they were outside, they would be big shots.

And these people are now squeezing for a place below, while they are standing in the VIP room looking down at them.

Liu Qiang couldn't help but sigh, this is the gap brought by status.

Mid-level nobles...even natives have to treat them with respect!

Since the first time he saw Lu Kong in the Novice Village, Liu Qiang felt that Lu Kong would definitely be extraordinary in the future.

I didn't expect that he would have such a status among the natives so soon!
