Chapter 16: Golden Many Auction House
After the conference ended, it was time for the Trainer course.
In the Pokémon World, Rookie Trainers who have become Trainers will receive some new education, or even one-on-one customized education.
Back in the class, the returning Homeroom Teacher had the students release their Pokémon in order, and the Homeroom Teacher would carefully observe the condition of each Pokémon, then give specific suggestions targeted at that Pokémon.
And when giving suggestions, the Homeroom Teacher would also casually explain the reasons and purposes, which benefited the surrounding students greatly.
When it was finally Lu Li’s turn, the Homeroom Teacher’s opinion was: “You have nurtured this Pokémon extremely well, but you should consider the issue of making money. Money isn’t everything, but it is essential on the Trainer path.”
Lu Li: “…”
Alright, Lu Li could only say that Old Ban lived up to her reputation. Unable to find issues with the Pokémon, she found them with the Trainer himself.
“Don’t worry, Teacher. I’ve already found a way to make money.” Lu Li smiled and nodded.
Since Lu Li was the last one, Old Ban, who was nearing the end of the school day, announced: “For the Match in one week, you all need to perform well. That will be another opportunity for you to defy fate besides the College Entrance Examination.”
Hearing the Homeroom Teacher say this, the Elite Class students once again realized that the Match in one week might be very special.
After school, before leaving, Jin Huang did not forget to remind: “Lu Li, don’t lose to anyone in front of me in the Match one week from now.”
Lu Li nodded, then left the school without looking back.
Today’s class content was that simple: the Homeroom Teacher proposed training directions for each Trainer’s Pokémon. Ordinary People could only attend such a class once a week, and each time it was only about ten minutes.
But Jin Huang could attend this kind of class every day until he was sick of it. That was the gap in connections, and Trainers from Noble Families even had dedicated Breeders nurturing their Pokémon by their side.
After school, time had reached three o’clock. Lu Li hailed a taxi by the school and headed to Qingfeng City.
One hour later, Lu Li stopped in front of a place called Golden Many Auction House.
Golden Many Auction House was the largest Auction in Qingfeng City. Even looking across the entire southern region of Jiuzhou, Golden Many Auction House was considered a top-tier Auction.
As soon as President Lu reached the doorway, he was stopped by a beautiful female Attendant.
The female Attendant respectfully asked: “Hello, sir. Today is not the start of the Auction. Do you have an Auction Item to auction?”
Lu Li nodded: “I have a Z Gem here that I want to auction.”
Hearing this, the female Attendant’s eyes lit up.
“Please follow me, sir.” The female Attendant diligently led the way ahead.
Although Lu Li was wearing a faded school uniform, the female Attendant showed no sign of looking down on him.
Because if what Lu Li said was true, it meant he would become a new multimillionaire, and most importantly, her bonus this month would double.
It was just a waste of a little time. These Attendants didn’t live off performance anyway; Lu Li was purely an accident windfall.
Led by the female Attendant, Lu Li was brought to the reception room. After Lu Li sat down, the Attendant respectfully asked: “Would you like Coffee or Tea?”
“Bring me a cup of Green Tea.” Lu Li said.
“Please wait here a moment.” After saying that, the Attendant turned and left.
In less than a minute, the Attendant came in carrying a cup of Green Tea. After placing the tea on the table in front of Lu Li, the Attendant said: “Please wait a moment. Our appraisal Expert and Manager will be right here.”
Soon after, the chubby middle-aged Manager walked in with a slender Old Man.
The fat Manager first smiled and shook hands with Lu Li, then rubbed his hands and asked: “I heard you have a Z Gem to auction, sir?”
Lu Li nodded, then placed the Electric Gem on the table.
Seeing the Electric Gem on the table, the Old Man excitedly adjusted his glasses, then carefully picked up a magnifying glass and leaned over the table to examine it.
Two minutes later, the Old Man put away the magnifying glass and said to the Manager: “It is indeed Electric Gem, and it is in excellent condition.”
Electric Gem can gather Attribute Energy on its own, so there is no issue of it becoming unusable over time.
After confirming the Electric Gem was genuine, the fat Manager quickly said: “Young brother, please wait a moment. I’ll have someone bring the contract right away.”
Another five minutes passed, and the fat Manager’s assistant came in with the contract, then respectfully handed it to Lu Li.
Lu Li picked up the contract and looked it over, finding no Traps, and with a breach penalty of up to 100 million, Lu Li nodded in satisfaction.
The contract was simple: Lu Li would leave the Electric Gem here for auction, and the Auction House would charge 4% of the final sale price as commission to the consignor. If the Auction Item was lost by the Auction House before the Auction, Golden Many Auction House must compensate Lu Li with 100 million League Coins.
Lu Li asked: “When does the Auction start?”
The fat Manager quickly said: “In one week, at most one week.”
Happy Cooperation. Lu Li nodded afterward, then signed his name on the contract.
Seeing Lu Li sign the contract, the fat Manager also stood up with a smile and said: “Happy Cooperation!”
After the fat Manager finished speaking, he took a booklet from his assistant and said: “This is the Auction Handbook for one week from now. It lists the Auction Items for then, though not all of them.”
Lu Li took the booklet, nodded, and left Golden Many Auction House.
On the Taxi, Lu Li curiously flipped through the Auction Handbook.
Grass Gem, Electric Gem…
Curse Armor, Celebration Armor…
Dragon Bone, Skull Fossil…
Mega Stone, Flower Incense…
Lu Li looked at the booklet in his hand in surprise. He discovered that the Auction Items at Golden Many Auction House were unexpectedly precious.
Grass Gem and Electric Gem went without saying; these things were called Pokémon Secret Treasures. After Pokémon absorb them, they can enhance the Pokémon’s use and comprehension of Attribute Energy.
As for Curse Armor and Celebration Armor, these were Evolution Items for Scraggy. Whether Armarouge or Ceruledge, both were quite handsome and powerful Pokémon.
Dragon Bone had even greater collectible value, and it was also a precious medicinal ingredient. Skull Fossil went without saying; this world had already researched Fossil revival machines, so Skull Fossil was equivalent to a Cranidos.
Mega Stone was an essential Item for Mega Evolution. Its value was similar to Electric Gem, but in the Jiuzhou Region, Electric Gem was rarer because Mega Stones were a specialty product of the Jiuzhou Region.
As for Flower Incense, this was a Pokémon Item whose effect was to assist Pokémon in absorbing and comprehending Grass-type Energy.
“This thing is quite useful for Tropius, and researching Flower Incense might even accelerate Artifact Refiners’ Pokémonfication.” Lu Li thought to himself silently.
