Chapter 125
A round of exclamation immediately ensued from below.
“Lord. That Great Master is actually participating in this auction?”
“How could this be? Where is he? Where is he?”
“A Fifth Tiered Armament Master’s status is highly respected. I’m sure he would be on the third floor?”
“Is that so? Then which room do you think he is in?”
With the majority discussing the topic, even the Crown Prince also looked upstairs in hopes of the catching a glimpse of that mysterious master.
He had never come into contact with such a high level Armament Master! If that master is really visiting the South Yue, then as the Crown Prince, he must take this opportunity to gain a friendly relationship with him. This would give him great benefits!
As he was in the midst of his dream, the voice of the young waiter once again entered his ears.
“Customer, why don’t you try a cup? This is a newly opened bottle of White Wild Rose wine released this year. This is a commodity that cannot be drunk all year round. Furthermore alcohol like this, only around ten bottle will be produced each year. Apart from our Thousand Treasure Pavilion, it’s unavailable anywhere else.”
For the treasures with very high monetary values, to start from zero was a strategy often used.
If one were to set a starting price, it would be subconsciously used as a price guide by guests. This may inform the guests of the approximate value of the item and result in the item never exceeding the base price by much. Generally in such cases, products rarely sold for more than ten times their actual value.
But it would be vastly different if the base price started from zero. Due to a customer’s immense desire to obtain the said item, they would psychologically offer higher prices. This would then easily surpass the original estimated value.
