Chapter 390: The Auction Begins
In addition to barley, Wang Xiaoming also purchased a lot of other food and supplies.
Wang Xiaoming also found that this chamber of commerce called the Flame Shield was powerful, and they could get the conventional items produced in the south of the mainland.
If the first deal turns out to be satisfactory, Wang Xiaoming doesn't mind a larger cooperative deal with them in the future.
After shopping around and finalizing a lot of deals, Wang Xiaoming found another restaurant to have a full meal, and then slowly returned to the rental house.
For several days, Wang Xiaoming spent this time, and this day finally came to the day when the auction opened.
The Spring Auction is not a single auction, but more than a dozen auctions of all sizes start together, so the pomp and circumstance are unprecedented.
There are many auctions, but there is only one auction that is really influential and the most attractive, that is, the auction of gold statues, and Wang Xiaoming also participated in this auction.
It is not easy to participate in the gold statue auction, first you have to prove your net worth, and people without money can't even enter the gate.
So how to prove your net worth, it's very simple to say, just have money.
You must take out 100,000 gold coins to prove your items, and then you have to pay 100 gold coins to enter the auction.
A hundred gold coins is definitely not a small amount, enough for ordinary people to spend for ten years, and these expenses are only the cost of getting started.
This is definitely not a place for ordinary people to come, even ordinary small businessmen, don't want to participate.
The auction takes place in a huge hall with hundreds of reclining chairs. Each chaise longue is like a small box that can seat up to five people.
After paying the entrance fee, Wang Xiaoming was arranged on one of the recliners. After the waiter brought Wang Xiaoming to his seat, he did not leave immediately, but smiled slightly, bowed and whispered: "This gentleman, are you participating alone? Do you need to find someone to accompany you, we have everything here." ”
Wang Xiaoming's eyes moved, and he was really moved. It's nice to have someone to be with you during the auction.
Of course, you have to be beautiful.
Wang Xiaoming nodded lightly. said: "To be the best, money is not an issue. ”
"You can rest assured, it's definitely the best. The waiter hurriedly said.
After a few moments, the waiter returned. Behind it. Follow a beautiful woman, the woman is not more than twenty years old, her appearance is beautiful and refined, and what is even more rare is that her body is still extremely hot, there is no breast augmentation technology in this world, so you don't have to worry about running into fake breasts.
When the woman arrived in front of Wang Xiaoming, she also lowered her eyebrows and was pleasing to her eyes, without the slightest look of smoke and flattery. looks very dignified, as if she was the eldest lady from a big family.
"You're satisfied. Let me tell you, this is a virgin. The waiter said with a chuckle.
"Not bad. Wang Xiaoming nodded lightly, shook his hand, and ten gold coins fell into the waiter's hand.
After receiving the gold coin, the waiter was overjoyed, and after quickly thanking him, he bowed down and retreated.
As soon as the waiter left, the woman gently sat down beside Wang Xiaoming.
Wang Xiaoming unceremoniously hugged the woman's thin waist and asked with a smile, "What's your name." ”
"My name is Serena. Shalena said softly, her voice was extremely gentle, and it made people's hearts soft, and she exhaled like an orchid, and smelled very fragrant.
The seats here are very special, they are all specially made, as if they are independent booths, and people outside cannot see the situation inside, so that personal privacy can be well protected.
"Shalena, is this her real name?" asked Wang Xiaoming with a smile.
"A name is just a code name, a real name is a fake name, what's the difference. Serena said quietly.
"That's right, the name is just a codename. Wang Xiaoming nodded lightly, and then asked, "Can I talk about you, I'm curious about your origin." ”
"You can talk about anything you want. Salena whispered.
"Then I'd like to see where we should start......
With beautiful women to accompany me, time passed relatively quickly, and I felt that I had just chatted for a while, but the auction had already begun.
As the lights on the auction table turned on, a beautiful woman walked up to the auction table, this woman was the auctioneer and the host.
"Hello everyone, my name is Barbara, I am the auctioneer of this gold statue spring auction, well, we won't talk about anything else, after all, everyone's time is precious, the auction has officially begun, and we have our first auction item. ”
A beautiful woman walked up to the auction table with a plate on which was placed a glass bottle with half of the yellow liquid in it.
"Our first auction item is the Golden Demon Dragon Wine, which is made from the blood of the Golden Demon Dragon, with a variety of the most precious materials, and then the great shaman on the grassland carefully refining it for three years before it can be refined. ”
"As for the efficacy of the Golden Demon Dragon Wine, I think most of the men present should know that the Golden Demon Dragon Wine has the strange effect of improving a man's physique, which can make the men who have drunk this wine have the staying power of a magic dragon, and the Golden Demon Dragon Wine, with a starting price of 10,000 gold coins. ”
"Eleven thousand gold coins. ”
"Twelve thousand gold coins. ”
"Thirteen thousand gold coins. ”
The quote is straight up at the beginning.
In terms of efficacy, Golden Dragon Wine is a powerful aphrodisiac and medicine, but unlike ordinary aphrodisiacs and medicines, Golden Dragon Wine is not a one-time effect, but a fundamental change in physique, so that men have super staying power.
This kind of wine is actually of little use to people like warriors, because powerful fighters have absolutely strong physical fitness, and they don't need this medicine at all.
But after all, warriors are still a minority, and it is impossible for all rich people to have the ability to become warriors, and this kind of rich businessmen or nobles need Golden Demon Dragon Wine very much.
For these nobles and wealthy people, for the sake of pleasure. Spending money is nothing.
This bottle of Golden Demon Dragon Wine was finally sold for 367,000 gold coins.
The first auction was sold at this price, so you can imagine that this auction is not simple.
There are no people with some net worth. I just came here to watch a play, and I couldn't buy anything at all.
The second lot in the auction is an ancient sword, this ancient sword is 300 years old, it is the sword of a king 300 years ago, although the king's country has been destroyed, although it has the reputation of being a king's sword. In addition, this ancient sword is extremely powerful, although it is not a super metal weapon, it is also a rare famous sword. So it's very sought-after.
In the end, this ancient sword was also sold for a high price of 250,000 gold coins.
Auction items began to appear one by one, and Wang Xiaoming also participated in bidding prices several times, but in the end he didn't buy them, mainly because of these auctions. Nothing will work for him. I didn't have much interest, so naturally I didn't buy it.
Another auction item was brought to the auction table, and this auction item was very special, it was a stone tablet.
But this stele only shows a small part of the beginning, and the rest is all wrapped in a red cloth.
That red cloth is not simple, it has a strange power. It is impossible to see through the red cloth and see behind the red cloth. The situation on the stele.
Wang Xiaoming tried the method several times, but he couldn't see through the red cloth, so he had to give up watching.
"Everyone, please see, this is a mysterious stele from the bottom of the sea, the stele records a treasure of the Sea Clan, this treasure should be left by the Atlantic Kingdom under the sea, you should know that the Atlantic Kingdom is one of the four ancient kingdoms of the Sea Clan, which was destroyed by mysterious forces a thousand years ago, although the Atlantic Kingdom has been destroyed, but the treasure they left behind must be extraordinary, and the wealth is amazing, absolutely unimaginable. ”
"Someone has to ask, since the secret recorded on this stone tablet represents an amazing wealth, why don't we take it ourselves?"
"Okay, you don't have to guess, for this batch of treasures, we are also very interested, and also try to find the treasure, but unfortunately, the bottom of the sea is a forbidden area for us humans, we try to find the treasure, but unfortunately in the end it is a heavy loss, for this batch of treasure, we are powerless, we can only choose to sell the map that records the treasure. ”
"We don't have the ability to find treasures, but it doesn't mean that others can't find treasures, powerful friends, but we can't miss this opportunity to make a fortune. ”
"Now, we are auctioning this mysterious stone tablet that records the treasure, with a starting price of 100,000 gold coins. ”
The auction began, but it was instantly cold.
100,000 gold coins is not a small amount, when the price is just to buy a map, and it is extremely dangerous, but I don't know whether there is a map or not, there are not too many people who can have this kind of determination.
You know, the underwater world is a forbidden place for the human race, it is the territory of the sea tribe, even if you know that there is treasure in the sea, you can't enter the bottom of the sea to find the treasure.
Taking a step back, even if the treasure is real, even if the treasure is found, after so many years, who knows if the treasure is still there? Who can be sure that the explosion is worth the price?
All things considered, so no one wants to bid.
The auction rolled his eyes, and suddenly said: "You can think about it differently, we can't use this stele ourselves, but we can sell it to the Sea Clan, for the Sea Clan, it is easy to take down this treasure, and the Sea Clan will definitely be willing to pay a lot of money to buy this stone stele, but unfortunately, our Chamber of Commerce has no way to know the people in the Sea Clan, otherwise, it would have been sold long ago." ”
As soon as he said this, among the businessmen present, there were a few people who suddenly moved their eyes.
Humans and the Sea Tribes are mortal enemies, so there are very few humans and the Sea Tribes in contact, but few does not mean that there are none, among the Terrans, there are also merchants and the Sea Tribes in contact, so as to carry out trade activities.
These few heart-warming merchants are all related to the Sea Clan.
However, this matter is not so easy to handle, 100,000 gold coins is not a small amount, and I don't know if the sea clan is willing to buy it, in case the other party is not willing to pay a high price, then I will suffer a loss.
This kind of business is very dangerous, and it can also be said to be a gamble.
"One hundred and eleven thousand gold coins. A merchant hesitated for a moment, but still quoted the price, he also wanted to gamble, it depends on what price the sea clan is willing to pay to buy.
"One hundred and two thousand gold coins. Another businessman shouted, and it was clear that the businessman was also trying to gamble.
"One hundred and three thousand gold coins. ”
"One hundred and four thousand gold coins. ”
"The offer is increasing little by little, but it is increasing very little and slowly. "Obviously, everyone is very cautious about this stone tablet.
Wang Xiaoming thought for a while and shouted, "110,000 gold coins." ”
For others, the ocean is a forbidden place, but for him, it may not be, so he is also interested in this stone tablet with treasures, and it is not too expensive to buy a chance with 100,000 gold coins and gamble.
"One hundred and eleven thousand gold coins. Another merchant shouted.
Auctions are like this, once there are many people interested in bidding, then it is easy to bid up.
"120,000 gold coins. Wang Xiaoming shouted without hesitation.
Hearing Wang Xiaoming's bidding, the other party was silent for a moment.
After considering the benefits and paying, the other party decided not to bid again.
This stele was purchased by Wang Xiaoming for 120,000 gold coins.
The auction items were received backstage, and after Wang Xiaoming paid the gold coins, the stele would be delivered to Wang Xiaoming.
The auction continued, one auction after another continued to appear, and Wang Xiaoming participated in several bids, but he was not interested in things, so he didn't buy them.
A moment later, another product aroused Wang Xiaoming's interest.
Baby Dragon, a baby dragon appeared at the auction, and it was also a cub of the Ice Demon Dragon.
This cub of the Ice Demon Dragon is also one of the finale auction items, with a starting price of 500,000 gold coins.
Baby dragons are very precious, but when it comes to practical effects, baby dragons are not very big.
Because it takes at least three hundred years to raise a young dragon to the point where it can fight.
This is too long, and it will take three hundred years to see the results of buying a young dragon now.
Moreover, in the past three hundred years, it has to be continuously cultivated, and the resources consumed will be unimaginable.
Under normal circumstances, only the big families would buy this kind of young beast, and they would keep cultivating it, and after three hundred years, they would cultivate a dragon knight for their own family.
This kind of large-scale spending can't be done by ordinary people, but the family that can do it must not be short of money.
Therefore, the competition for this ice young dragon was extremely fierce, and the price soared, and soon exceeded one million gold coins, one million gold coins, and one million two hundred thousand gold coins.
Wang Xiaoming is also involved, and he is also interested in this young dragon.
But later, Wang Xiaoming was also speechless, and the price reached three million gold coins, which exceeded Wang Xiaoming's budget, and Wang Xiaoming could only give up the offer.
In the end, this cub of the Ice Demon Dragon was bought at a high price of 3.57 million gold coins. (To be continued......)
