Chapter 66
Episode 66. Managing the auction house (2)
Baek Woo-jin felt intense hostility directed at him as he entered the auction house.
-There are so many people who hate you. You must have had a very good life.
‘That’s right. ‘It’s not just one or two people.’
There was not just one person who was showing hostility and murder towards him.
As far as I can feel, there were 6 people.
‘Shall I give you a little provocation before the auction?’
Baek Woo-jin approached the man wearing a gray mask with a wicked smile.
“Did you come looking for a weapon?”
“What nonsense!”
A panicked voice came out from the mouth of the gray mask.
He waved his hand furiously as if it was nonsense.
“If you came looking for your weapon, you should show your face. “What are you doing wearing that stupid mask?”
“This guy! “Shut up!”
Baek Woo-jin’s smile deepened when he saw the gray mask being embarrassed.
“Song Ji-hoon of Gwangdomun Gate.”
“omg!”
The man wearing the gray mask, no, Song Ji-hoon of Gwangdomun, stopped moving as if frozen.
“How…”
Song Ji-hoon’s eyes trembled violently.
To avoid being discovered, he wore a specially made mask and even used a voice modulation tool, but the reason why he was caught was unknown.
-Maybe it’s because I eat a lot of good things, but my sense of aura and mana is really crazy.
Darkness stuck out its tongue at Baek Woo-jin’s mood.
Baek Woo-jin remembered and recognized Song Ji-hoon’s Auror, whom he met in the Gargoyle Dungeon.
“It might be frustrating, but are you going to keep using it?”
“Ugh….”
Song Ji-hoon gritted his teeth and took off his mask.
A face full of shameful emotions was revealed.
“If I had shown my face a long time ago, I would have said that I was a warrior, but it’s a shame.”
“Why did you put my weapon up for auction!”
“Why, why? “I gave it up because it was useless.”
“Huh…”
“You get a chance to get your lost weapon back, and I sell the weapon I don’t need. “There’s no problem.”
Song Ji-hoon was speechless.
That was correct.
However, Baek Woo-jin was the only one who put the stolen weapons up for auction.
That action hurt my pride even more.
“It was here too.”
Baek Woo-jin approached the right wall.
I stood in front of a man whose entire face was covered by a colorful mask.
“Would you like to guess your name? Or do you want to take it off on your own?”
“…done. “I’ll take it off.”
The gorgeous mask was removed, revealing the frowning face of Seo Jin-hwan of the Phoenix Guild.
“How did you know?”
“I can see it.”
Baek Woo-jin said those words and turned to the smiling masked man leaning against the wall inside the auction house.
“Did I recognize you too?”
“Then you would have just come?”
“Really…”
The man sighed and took off his mask.
It was Kang Hoon from the Hero Guild.
All three people whose weapons were taken away by Baek Woo-jin participated in the auction and their identities were revealed.
“Kang Hoon of the Heroes Guild, Song Jihoon of Gwangdomun, and Seo Jinhwan of the Phoenix Guild? “They are all talented people who lost their weapons to Baek Woo-jin!”
“How on earth did you find out?”
“I don’t know. The mask must have been specially treated. “Is there something magical?”
People around me looked dumbfounded, unable to understand the situation.
“also.”
Moon Joo-young was proudly watching Baek Woo-jin as if it was natural.
He was now thinking so highly that he wouldn’t be surprised if Baek Woo-jin did anything.
“Black cow. “You came too.”
Baek Woo-jin looked back and smiled.
A small man with his face covered with a black cow and pig mask was looking at him.
Baek Woo-jin also looked at the people he assumed to be Lucas and Zeno, who showed hostility toward him.
“I’ll see you inside.”
Baek Woo-jin pushed people into a wave of confusion and entered the auction house.
**
-Why did you provoke them? Why did you touch not only the three of them, but also the others?
‘You’ll know when you see it.’
Baek Woo-jin was just smiling.
“Here is your number, Master.”
“Number 77 is a good number.”
“I see. “Because luck overlaps twice.”
Unlike the darkness, Moon Ju-young did not ask Baek Woo-jin anything.
It was a complete belief that Baek Woo-jin would take care of it.
“If you win the auction, you have to pay immediately, and the money from selling the weapon will be received tomorrow at noon.”
“I know.”
They said that you can’t use the money you sold for today’s weapons at the auction, and that you should only use the money you have.
“long time no see.”
While Baek Woo-jin and Moon Ju-young were waiting for the auction to begin, Jeok Yeon-hwa appeared.
She was not wearing a mask and was proudly wearing the enemy’s battle uniform.
“I see.”
Baek Woo-jin shook his head.
-That girl has grown again.
‘Are you receiving special training? ‘The growth rate is much faster than in my previous life.’
Jeok Yeon-hwa’s growth was incomparably faster than in her previous life. It was like his influence.
“How did you find the people in the lobby?”
“well.”
“Phew, you’re answering like that again.”
Jeok Yeon-hwa shook her head.
Unlike other people, he treats himself carelessly and speaks arrogantly, but he keeps attracting attention.
He was truly an unknown person.
“I just remembered their Aurors.”
“yes? “Is that possible?”
It is true that people’s auras are different, but recognizing them is not as easy as saying it so simply.
It was a level of sensation that was shocking.
“I found it because I could.”
“I’m training hard too, but it seems like I’m getting further and further away from you.”
“For something like that, we’ve improved a lot?”
“Hmm…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa lowered her head as if she was embarrassed.
“Are you receiving any special training?”
“I’m training with my brother.”
“If you were my brother, would you be Deacon Jeok Gyeong-hoon?”
“yes.”
“Right.”
Jeok Yeon-hwa seems to have achieved such growth while training with Jeok Gyeong-hun, also known as Kwon Ryong.
Jeok Yeon-hwa, who actually took action, was much better than those who said they would regret it rather than seek revenge.
“I didn’t think you would be interested in a place like this.”
“That…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa couldn’t answer.
I couldn’t say that I came because I heard rumors that Baek Woo-jin was participating in the auction.
widely.
Suddenly the lights went out and a light began to shine in front.
“It’s starting.”
“Ah yes.”
Jeok Yeon-hwa nodded with a lively expression.
“The black market auction starts now!”
**
“The next auction item is the Feather Gloves from the Harpy Dungeon. It is light and thin as if it is not wearing anything, and has a special effect of increasing attack speed and movement speed.”
The host boasted for a long time about the effectiveness and abilities of the feather gloves.
It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t a very good product either.
“The starting price is 200 million won.”
As the host announced the start, hands began to go up here and there.
“Number 130! You re-bid with 500 million won! Do you have any more? If you don’t have one, person 130 will take the feather gloves. 10 9 Are you sure you don’t have any? 5 4….”
“Let’s get started.”
Baek Woo-jin raised his hand.
“oh! Customer number 77 was the first to bid at 600 million!”
The host’s voice rose loudly because he raised 100 million at once.
“Baek Woo-jin?”
“As rumored, they are aiming for the gloves.”
“Bid quickly!”
The surroundings began to buzz, and people who had negative feelings toward Baek Woo-jin, including Song Ji-hoon, Seo Jin-hwan, and Kang Hoon, began to raise their hands eagerly.
“1.3 billion! 1.3 billion came out!”
The host’s voice trembled.
It was only natural that the price of the gloves rose to 1.3 billion in less than 10 seconds.
‘What’s going on?’
Although the feather gloves were a good item, they were not items worth 1.3 billion won.
After Baek Woo-jin raised his hand, people were going crazy.
“Hmm…”
Baek Woo-jin raised his hand after thinking about it.
“Oh oh! Number 77, 1.4 billion! Here…”
“Hmph!”
Before the host even finished speaking, Song Ji-hoon raised his hand.
“uh? You bid 1.6 billion 111 times! “It’s 1.6 billion!”
The host’s voice and tension on the microphone rose to their peak.
“Tsk.”
Baek Woo-jin clicked his tongue and did not bid any further.
“The feather glove was sold to customer number 111 for 1.6 billion won. congratulations!”
“Hahaha!”
Song Ji-hoon looked at Baek Woo-jin with a big smile.
I bought the gloves for more than twice the price, but I couldn’t help but laugh when I thought that Baek Woo-jin had stolen the item I wanted.
It felt like my crumpled pride had widened.
“The next item is the Gray Wolf’s Boots obtained from the Wolf Bear Dungeon. It increases strength and agility, has Aura reinforcement and Aura defense, and shows an excellent increase in movement speed. The starting price is 600 million won!”
Because the boots had good effects, the starting price was 300 million won higher than that of the feather gloves.
“1 billion came out. Don’t you have 1 billion? uh? Customer number 77 bid 1.1 billion won.”
Baek Woo-jin raised his hand and joined in the boot bidding.
“As expected, you were targeting boots too.”
“Bid. “Don’t give anything to Baek Woo-jin!”
People like Song Ji-hoon, Seo Jin-hwan, Kang Hoon, and Heuk-woo were taking turns raising the auction price even though they didn’t even know each other.
“1.4 billion, 1.5 billion, 104 times, 1.7 billion!”
It was his intention to raise the price as much as possible even if he had to hand over the boots to Baek Woo-jin.
“No. 77, 2 billion! 2 billion won….”
Before Baek Woo-jin could say he had raised the money, Kang-hoon raised his hand.
“wow! It’s 2.1 billion. Number 104, 2.1 billion!”
“Hmm…”
Baek Woo-jin only frowned and did not raise his hand any more.
“Grey Wolf’s boots were sold to customer number 104. congratulations!”
Kang Hoon laughed at Baek Woo Jin, who was biting his lip.
Seeing Baek Woo-jin’s humiliated expression made me feel refreshed, as if a 10-year-old problem had gone away.
‘Still, it’s a bit of a waste.’
With no intention of buying boots, he just wanted to waste Baek Woo-jin’s money, but Baek Woo-jin did not follow.
Still, I felt refreshed that I had disturbed that damn bastard.
-What are you doing? Compared to your gloves and boots, those are nothing but trash!
‘I know.’
-But why did you bid?
‘on purpose.’
-uh? No way!
‘that’s right. I had no intention of buying them.’
Baek Woo-jin was frowning on the outside, but was happy on the inside.
I had no intention of buying any equipment.
He just wanted other guys to get in his way and spend money.
‘I was wondering what if they didn’t come when I called for 1.8 billion and 2 billion. I’m so thankful for these guys. ‘The provocation was worth it.’
-Huh…
It was ridiculous.
Baek Woo-jin was taking advantage of the hostility poured towards him.
‘Shall I tell you something more interesting?’
-What are you trying to say again?
‘Those gloves and boots are from the Seongnam branch.’
-Then…
‘Okay. A lot of that auction fee will go to Eugene. ‘I’ll make quite a lot of money.’
As mentioned before, Baek Woo-jin allowed Yoo Jin-ah to receive a lot of commissions.
-Is this why you asked Yoo Jin-ah to spread the rumor?
‘that’s right. I instructed Eugene to spread the rumor that my gloves and boots were worn out and I was looking for new ones.’
Baek Woo-jin secretly spread the rumor that he was looking for equipment through Yoo Jin-ah.
Geomtooth’s gloves and Rapor’s boots actually look old and shabby compared to the options.
They were fooled more easily because it was hard to believe that it was a low rare, let alone a unique one.
‘In addition, there was even a rumor that he spent a lot of money buying a sword from a craftsman and learning elemental magic.’
-Everyone here was playing a trick on you.
There was soul missing from the voice of darkness.
Not only people like Song Ji-hoon, Kang Hoon, and Seo Jin-hwan, but the entire auction house was being swayed by Baek Woo-jin.
No one would have thought of using hostility to control the auction price.
-The real you…
‘If there were one or two enemies, we would have joined forces, but since there were so many, I didn’t think of that. That’s their defeat.’
The guilds had a common goal of suppressing themselves, but they had not kissed together.
That’s why there was a hole to exploit.
-You really are a fool. You idiot!
Even during this time, Baek Woo-jin was managing his expression with a humiliated face.
He was truly a man who could only be described as amazing.
**
“The Ojiseon flower was sold for 3 billion won! congratulations.”
In the subsequent auctions, Baek Woo-jin did not win a single bid.
Following the Gwangdomun Firebird hero, the Black Bull of Daeyeonmun and the wizards of Lucas came in the way, so I was missing everything.
As the prices of auction items increased due to interference with Baek Woo-jin, the prices of items in which he did not participate also increased.
The entire auction house seemed to be gripped by madness.
“Singeombaekga is so salty. Even though he is a direct relative, he seems to have no money. “Looking at it now, 3 billion won seems like a lot.”
“That’s right. I got all the forms, but I can’t find anything. “Tsk!”
“I heard you spent 10 billion won on elemental magic. Is it true that you have no money?”
“That’s what an empty Gangjeong says about something like that.”
Amidst people’s ridicule, Baek Woo-jin lowered his head as if his pride had been hurt.
“Hmm…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa, watching from the side, felt sorry.
He wanted to lend Baek Woo-jin his own money, but he was afraid of hurting Baek Woo-jin’s pride, so he just looked on.
“The next item is Eunwolcho.”
The host smiled brightly and brought out the following auction items.
“It’s finally come out.”
Song Ji-hoon clenched his fist.
It wasn’t an incredibly good elixir, but it contained strong yin energy and was a perfect match for his aura.
It was an auction item that had to be purchased unconditionally, except to retrieve the weapon.
“If it’s okay with you…”
Just as Jeok Yeon-hwa was about to say that she would carefully lend the money, Baek Woo-jin raised his head.
His face was brighter than expected.
“We each spent 15 billion won, so we can get started now.”
“Ah…”
Jeok Yeon-hwa felt goosebumps rising up her spine at Baek Woo-jin’s cheerful voice.
It wasn’t a bluff.
Baek Woo-jin was truly happy.
“The Eunwolcho auction will begin! The starting price is 1 billion.”
Although not as popular as Ojiseonhwa, Eunwolcho was also popular, so the price went up through the roof.
“3 billion. It’s 3 billion. If there are no other bidders, Eunyeongcho will be sold to number 111 for 3 billion. 5 4.”
Song Ji-hoon smiled and Baek Woo-jin raised his hand as the host counted the numbers.
“3.2 billion! Customer number 77 bid 3.2 billion won.”
At the host’s words, everyone looked at Baek Woo-jin with blank eyes.
This is because I never even thought that Baek Woo-jin, who had become helpless, would now participate.
“joy!”
Song Ji-hoon again raised an additional 100 million won, but Baek Woo-jin immediately followed suit.
The price of Eunwolcho rose to 3.5 billion won.
“If I just did it without money, would I regret it? Do you have money to pay when I get out of here? “If you don’t pay right away, you’ll be kicked out of here.”
“You should worry about money because you bought useless junk.”
Baek Woo-jin’s mouth curled up.
It was an obvious ridicule.
Song Ji-hoon is not the only target.
It was a sneer thrown at everyone who disturbed him at the auction house.
“It’s useless? Everything I bought was what you bid on. Is it a fox looking at green grapes? “The bowl was smaller than I thought!”
“Hahaha!”
“You speak well!”
At Song Ji-hoon’s words, people at the auction house pointed their fingers at Baek Woo-jin.
“My gloves and boots are things you cannot buy even if you give up all your money. “I didn’t need to buy gloves and boots in the first place.”
“Those gloves and boots are cheap! Plus, there’s the rumor that you’re looking for them…”
“The rumor that the gloves and boots are worn out. “I sowed that.”
When Baek Woo-jin showed off Geomchi’s neatly maintained gloves, Song Ji-hoon’s expression changed moment by moment.
“I can’t believe I don’t have any money….”
“That’s right. “That’s also a rumor I spread.”
“Ah…”
Song Ji-hoon’s eyes shook as if there was an earthquake.
Only now did he realize that he had been caught up in Baek Woo-jin’s trick.
“That’s ridiculous!”
“That bastard again!”
“Damn…damn it!”
The other people also realized Baek Woo-jin’s intention and their faces turned pale.
They realized that they had been fooled by Baek Woo-jin’s acting and wasted money.
“Thank you for burning money in the air.”
Baek Woo-jin smiled broadly and waved his hand.
-Yamsaeng itself…
