"Wow, for the first time in this auction, we have a tie, folks…" The auctioneer lady was just speaking in amusement when she was interrupted by the sound of a lever being pulled. For a moment, the auction house was silent.
She gazed at seat number 207, looking at a lever that was pulled which propped a certain metal plate, allowing her to see the single-digit number inscribed on it. For a moment, she was lost for words.
Re'Kha had increased the price by 1 RuQi. It was the first of the four levers, one whose existence was forgotten by everyone as no one ever used it. Everyone who had arrived at this auction at least had some money with them.
So, they never resorted to using the first lever that increased the bid by 1 RuQi. Even if one did that, the auctioneer lady wouldn't even glance their way. Moreover, it was embarrassing. So, the minimum most they increased a bid by was 10 RuQi.
