Chapter 543 System Auction (3)

Rudra was not much interested in the phase one of the auction , so he was pretty laid back in his king room . However Amelia was extremely interested in only this phase of the auction as he womanly instinct wanted many cheap things rather than one grand thing.

She took a self imposed budget of 200,000 gold coins and splurged to her hearts will in the first phase of the auction.

She would buy everything pretty like hairpins , or small objects that would look good on her work desk , much to the dismay of many small guild owners who were baffled to see the king room meddling over such petty items worth only a few thousand gold coins.

Even though she could easily click buyout on each and every item , she would always quote a price just below the buyout price , as if saving 50 gold gave her a sense of great accomplishment , however when she lost the item to some other person who did a buyout she would lose her temper and groan.

Rudra was thoroughly entertained by this display by Amelia as although she was rich beyond beleif , she acted like a miser who loved to save money , making the waiting time that Rudra had to endure till the first phase ended much more entertaining than just watching items go by every 90 seconds

However the auction itself was pretty useless at this phase as all the items that were being auctioned off were pretty basic in Rudra's eyes , as some blatant basic items like a pack of advanced mana potions was being sold for 1000 coins when the same could be bought at the Elite lifestyle store for just 250 coins.

This was a clear waste of wealth and resources however just the pride of winning a single item in this auction was worth more to these third rate guild leaders who desperately did not want to go home empty handed.

When Rudra looked at these lower seated guild mastered he could see his past self in them as he realized how hard the rat race was .

When competing in the rat race your opponents are 80 k , but at the top the competition is only 68. Thats how the food chain worked and how Rudra had turned his second life around.

Only because he knew that pain of the rat race , he could stand at the top of the world and carve his own space .

This was an ability that the second rich generations would never have , no matter how competent they are.

The founder of the company is the one that always does the heavy lifting , hence no matter how greatly the second rich generation succeeds , bringing the company to unprecedented heights , they would never have the same buisness acumen and cut-throat mentality as the founders.

Hence although Rudra felt sympathy , he also knew that the reason the others were stuck in the rat race was exactly because of this pointless showboating that they did , that compelled to show them how big they were when they were actually not even ants.

Showboating and crab fighting was the reason why the third rate guilds did not become second rate guilds and why the second rate guilds could not become first rate guilds as fast as the elites climbed the ladder . Because they simply did not have the same Sigma mentality.

This was why Rudra pitied them , the rats stuck in rat race , who never realize how they are the masters of their own fate.

***

Amelia bought a total of 17 items in the first phase as she had a happy and satisfied expression at the end of it.

Apparently shopping was a great stress-buster and she much appreciated the mini vacation alongside Rudra , as work had been pretty stressful lately with Rudra's coronation and the management of the new kingdom.

Rudra Was also happy that Amelia was happy , however his time to focus was starting now. As the auctioneer announced the start of phase two.

" Ladies and gentlemen with this we close the first phase of the auction. The first phase lasted a total of 16 hours and saw 640 items being auctioned off .

The auction committee would like to extend our heartiest congratulations to all those who managed to successfully bid for the items.

We will now take an 8 hour break , where there will be entertainment and food , while those that need to refill their pockets can take the time to gather the money.

The catalogue for the items being auctioned in the second phase will now be distributed. All those who are present here can participate in the second phase , however the minimum bid price shall start from 10,000 gold and each increment will see atleast a thousand gold being added for the base items

While the latter items will see an opening price of 100,000 gold and a minimum increase of 10,000 gold , hence all participants be prepared.

The second phase Items will still have a buyout price , with the buyout of the one's weilding a higher seating trumping those of a lower seating , while within the same ranks it will follow a first come first serve model.

The second phase will see non-stop bidding for 300 items for an estimated time of 18 hours . Hence all esteemed participants be prepared.

The auction will now go on an 8 hour break ... " The fox man announced

Rudra was surprised by the manner in which the auction was being conducted as he never expected breaks and chances to refill money in between be given .

However this was undoubtedly an extremely smart move by the cuber corp , as money was going to flow because of their tactics.

Not only would guild leaders who were usually miles away from each other on the continent socialize . There would be alliances and enmity formed , increasing the bidding potential of each party for an item.

The second phase was undoubtedly going to be cut-throat brutal , no question about that!
