"Isn't that... Master Haitang?"
Someone among the sentient beings suddenly spoke up, causing a sudden hush to fall all over the entire crowd. Haitang. There wasn't a sentient being who was not aware of this name. After all, Haitang was one of the sentient beings who was actually involved with humans!
"Ah, shit," Ciyi looked at the sentient man in front of him and his ears, if possible, drooped even more. Because he knew that whatever chances he had to get his hands on the remaining supplies were gone!
Sure enough, as soon as Xiao Bo finished speaking, Haitang would raise his hand and make the biggest bid, making it impossible for anyone to get their hands on the items that Xiao Bo was auctioning off.
Too hateful!
These capitalists were simply too hateful.
Ciyi was upset and so were the rest of the sentient beings as they watched Haitang take away the items that Xiao Bo had brought with him. In the end, they had no other choice but to turn around and leave. But before they could take even a few steps away from the spot where the auctions were being held, they heard Xiao Bo raise his paw and say to them, "Wait a moment."
"Whats wrong, Xiao Bo?" a fox sentient being paused and turned to look at Xiao Bo with confusion in her eyes. "Do you have anymore items that you want to auction today?"
As soon as the woman finished speaking, the crowd of buyers paused and turned to look at Xiao Bo with a familiar glint in their eyes. Seeing the greedy look in their eyes made Xiao Bo's lips twitch. He shook his head and replied, "I don't have anymore items to auction off."
The second he finished speaking, the entire crowd turned quite disappointed.
"But.." Xiao Bo took out an extra bucket of fish and apples before saying to the crowd. "I have an exchange deal."
"Exchange deal? What do you mean by that?" someone in the crowd asked and Xiao Bo smirked haughtily. Once again, he had to admit that he was too naive; compared to him, it was Miss Mo who knew how to play smarter.
'Remember, don't make the exchange before someone with a really high bid purchases the goods,' she told him on their last call. 'If you make the exchange deal before, people will take it lightly and neither will they take the deal seriously after all; they have more than three rounds to purchase the goods.'
'This way there is a chance that the exchange will fall through. So you might as well use it at last when the crowd has lost all hope to get the items. As long as there desperation is working, they will certainly be willing to do the exchange.'
Xiao Bo sighed with emotions. If he could, he would have created a shrine for Miss Mo. She was really best at handling business dealings! He was nothing compared to her.
He smiled at the crowd who was looking at him with confusion and nodded. "That's right, an exchange deal."
