Volume II: Academy Chapter 0170: Under the Bidding
After saying this, Renard looked at the auctioneer on the auction table, and the two made an extremely subtle exchange with their eyes, their movements were very subtle, and only each other understood the meaning.
You don't need to make a sound to communicate with smart people, you just need a hint from a certain look, and they have already reached a strategic alliance.
Hank won the ownership of the ten horses by a great margin of thirty percent over the average market price, but when his men moved the horses, he didn't even look at them, apparently not caring about them.
Renard sneered, so that he could be sure that the real target of the other party was actually himself.
He straightened his collar and was ready for 'battle'.
Immediately afterwards, the auctioneer directly brought all the remaining thirty or so galloping horses to the stage, and at the same time said in a very excited tone: "Next is the highlight of this auction." ”
After speaking, he pointed to the center of the field and motioned for everyone to concentrate.
Then I saw two strong men with extraordinary strength each led out a pure white galloping horse, which looked extremely handsome, and at first glance it was a good horse in a million.
Hank's expression finally moved, such a good horse is rare, even in the Moore family's horse farm.
The auctioneer pointed to the two horses and said, "These two are the legendary horse kings, the wind is a thousand miles away, I don't think I need to introduce anything else, right?"
The true king of horses, the true king of horses, can travel thousands of miles in a day on the plains, and their ancestors once performed the miracle of crossing the Boleton grasslands in three days.
The Boleton Grassland is the largest grassland in the northern continent, covering an area of nearly eight million square kilometers, and if you want to cross it in three days, you will not only have to race against time, but also avoid the risk from the orcs.
However, the Storm did just that.
For three days, it carried its master, Elmond, the former marshal of the Betty Kingdom, through the vast sea of grass to the orc court at the end of the Ambrizette Mountains, and killed the former beastmaster Horoshom Bloody Hand.
The sword war that arose because of the Beastmaster ended with the death of five million humans and the fall of the Beastmaster.
It was one of the most iconic and crazy decapitations in history, and Elmond was written into the history books, but he himself did not return alive to enjoy the glory.
And what was written into the history books along with Marshal Elmond was the Galloping Horse.
I have to say that Elmond's contribution to history is huge, not only causing the Orc Empire to be in civil strife for ten years, but also causing major human countries around the world to sign a treaty: the Epic Warrior Treaty Against National Wars
Of course, this treaty is limited to wars between human nations, and does not work against interracial wars.
Back to business.
When the two galloping horses were brought to the auction table, almost everyone below was tempted, including Yalei.
However, when considering Hank's variable, he had to suppress his desires, and he knew very well that as long as the other party was present, he would definitely have no hope, unless there was a real hemorrhage.
At the same time, he was still vaguely curious in his heart, how did this small auction house get such a rare thing as the Wind Thousand Miles Horse?
Of course, it had nothing to do with him, so just think about it.
The appearance of the Storm Horse brought the atmosphere around the auction hall to a climax, and many people heard that there were two noble young masters who were going to compete for the Storm Rider, so they immediately got up from the bed and hurriedly got dressed and came to 'watch the battle'.
The auctioneer clapped his hands and motioned for everyone to look at him, and when all eyes were gathered, he spoke: "These two horses are only given away, not sold, and whoever actually gives him the thirty-two horses behind me, and the two horses will be given to him as gifts." ”
Everyone pouted when they heard this, and even scolded each other for being shameless.
I'm afraid I'm fooling a fool!
The auctioneer didn't care about the disdainful gazes around him, and continued: "Thirty-two galloping horses, the reserve price is ten gold coins, and each increase must not be less than one gold coin, the auction starts now. ”
When they heard the number, they thought they had misheard, and they all looked at each other.
Renard understands that the other party is trying to mobilize the atmosphere of the scene, what is the meaning of the two noble young masters bidding for each other, they always have to warm up in the early stage, and then let the two protagonists fight, so that there is something to watch, isn't it.
So the scene immediately became lively after half a minute of silence.
"Fifteen gold coins. "Sixteen gold coins. "Twenty gold coins. "Thirty gold coins. ”“......”
The price is being shouted one after another, and it is obvious that there are still a lot of rich people.
Thirty-two galloping horses, and they are in good shape and of the right age, not to mention they can be sold for 300 gold coins, not to mention two galloping horses, which are valuable BMWs, and if you buy them, you can earn them.
In just ten minutes, the asking price rose from fifteen gold coins to two hundred gold coins, and it continued to climb and climb again until the price rose to three hundred and thirty gold coins.
"Three hundred and fifty gold coins. "It was Hank, who had just watched the monkey show for a long time, and now he had finally decided to go out in person.
This price directly made the current atmosphere strangely stagnant for a moment, after all, this is not a small number, almost equivalent to the entire net worth of some businessmen.
He glanced at Reynard with an indifferent expression while quoting, and the meaning was very clear: It's our turn.
Lei Ye cleared his throat slightly, and said under the watchful eye: "Three hundred and sixty gold coins." ”
Here we go!
Everyone instantly became excited, and the competition between the two bigwigs finally began.
"Three hundred and seventy gold coins. "Three hundred and eighty gold coins. "Three hundred and ninety gold coins. "Four hundred gold coins. ”
The price of the Storm Pony skyrocketed at a rate of almost ten gold coins per second, and after ten seconds: "Four hundred and fifty gold coins, if it's higher, you can take it." ”
It was Hank who spoke, he was obviously not a fool, how could he not know about the small movements between Renard and the auctioneer, he was just too lazy to break it.
However, he is not wronged, he will not cheapen the other party in vain, four hundred and fifty gold coins is already the highest price he can give, and no matter how high it is, it is really not worth it.
Renard was silent, and then arched his hand and confessed: "You are awesome, let's go." ”
Before leaving, he stretched out his hands and gestured the number ten at the auctioneer, and the other party immediately took out a magic crystal card with a denomination of ten gold coins and handed it over with a smile.
Since he has seen through the scheme, there is no need to hide it, anyway, his auction house is only temporary, and there is no need to care about any reputation.
As Renard was about to leave, Hank suddenly spoke, "Someone wants to join forces with me and I want your life." ”
Lei Ye paused when he heard this, and waited for the following.
Hank smiled, "I didn't promise. ”
After a moment of silence, he said again: "But you still have to be careful, because of my refusal, so you entered another person's field of vision, he has no good impression of you, and his ability, even the Moore family is very afraid." ”
Renard took a deep breath, didn't say anything, and left directly with the three Fords.
