Chapter 156: Auction Venue

Lu An couldn't accept such a large amount of information, he paused for a moment before he said, "I'm going to raise money now, when will your auction start?"

"Dubai time, tomorrow at nine o'clock in the morning. Li Fanzhi replied.

"Well, I should be able to raise a billion dollars before then, and if you can buy the artifact, it will be worth it. When are you going to go back to Jiuyou?"

"I'll go back to Wuyang tomorrow after I buy it. ”

"Okay, I'll wait for you in Wuyang tomorrow night. ”

Ruan seemed determined to help them buy the artifact, and judging by the way he looked, it seemed like he had something else to talk about tomorrow.

***

In the evening, Ji Tianci and Lu Manwen enjoyed the night view of the beach, and Atlantis prepared a beach feast for customers today. Top chefs from all over the world gathered to set up a buffet dinner on the beach.

Ji Tianci and the four of them sat on the same seat, Li Fanzhi looked left and right, and looked around the entire beach restaurant, "Old Ye, the people from the Nine Shadows Sword are also here." ”

Ye Xiangdong followed the direction pointed by Li Fanzhi and saw several Nine Shadows, "What are they here to buy?

"No, they should just come to see if they can 'pick up the leak', and it is estimated that they are also here for the Sea Emperor Trident. If you look over there, the American Independence Regiment is also coming, and they are probably the biggest buyers of the Trident. It is said that the transcendents in the Independent Regiment have a certain grasp of this artifact. To be honest, I want to buy this artifact too, and it's definitely for me. ”

"Come on, you blow again. ”

"Lao Ye, why don't you believe me, I have won the second place in the Zhishen Competition. ”

"yes! You've lost to a twelve-year-old. ”

Li Fanzhi smiled awkwardly, "That kid is a freak, he has been named the god of wisdom for two consecutive terms, and now he is also the key training object of the independent group." ”

Ye Xiangdong pondered for a moment, "You say, will the Trident that the Independent Regiment buy this time for that kid?"

"I don't know, I want to say, this kid is also twenty-two years old now, and he won't be able to sign up for the God of War Tournament this time. ”

Li Fanzhi thought for a while, and then smiled lightly: "Hehe, whatever, even if the independent group buys a trident for him, it is not so easy to buy, and the people from the Holy Sect and the Dark Council are also here." ”

After speaking, Li Fanzhi raised his glass and toasted a glass of wine to the Europeans at another table not far away.

Lu Manwen then asked, "Who are they? Why are they still wearing a black dress on such a hot day?"

"They're members of the Dark Council, and I've dealt with them before because of Brownsis. Judging by their formation, a big consortium should have been sent this time. The last thing the Temple of the Gods wanted was to sell the Trident to them. ”

When Ji Tianci heard the name of Browns, he couldn't help but ask, "Can Brownsis's paintings seal mortals?"

Li Fanzhi looked at Ji Tianci with a little surprise, "Do you also have a study of his paintings?" He is an A-level transcendent, with a transcendent status in the Dark Council, people call him 'Emissary', and it shouldn't be too much of a problem for him to seal a mortal. ”

"Does the Dark Council often do things that break the law?"

"It's hard to say, but their style of doing things is really extreme. However, like the Holy Sect and the Temple of the Gods, they have also done a lot of bad things behind their backs, and everyone is not all for profit. ”

……

This night, Ji Tianci couldn't sleep looking at the night scene outside the window in the hotel room, he felt palpitations inexplicably, as if something bad was about to happen.

Looking at Lu Manwen, who was already asleep, Ji Tianci's thoughts drifted back to the ancient period. Everyone has parents, even orphans, and they know that there is a man and a woman who created themselves.

And what about himself? If, according to Mo Ye, he and those ancient gods are of the same generation, then who are his parents? Where are they?

My adoptive father said that he was sent down by a golden light from the sky, but could it be that his biological parents were in the heavenly realm?

……

Before dawn, Lu Manwen's mobile phone rang, and it was Lu An calling. He told his daughter that the money was in place, a billion dollars, and it was almost enough to buy a fame artifact. Lu An also said that if the money is not enough, there will be someone at the auction to help them.

Lu Manwen listened to his father's tone, it seemed that he also wanted to buy back the artifact, and repeatedly asked himself if Ji Tianci could absolutely control the artifact.

And for Ji Tianci, it doesn't seem that difficult to control the artifact, and he can easily control Fu Xiqin and Nuwa Stone at the beginning.

Compared with those two artifacts, Ji Tianci felt that he was more comfortable using his sword.

At eight o'clock in the morning, the four of them entered the auction hall early. The venue is cleverly designed as a semi-circular exhibition hall with open rooms in an arc. Each of these rooms has no doors, and each one faces a booth with a semi-circular diameter at the center point.

The whole exhibition hall is very large, and the original super high ceiling has been built into three floors, and each floor is densely covered with such small rooms, about 300 rooms.

The exhibition hall is luxuriously decorated and bright, and the central booth is even more spacious, which can be placed on two light passenger planes.

The interior of the small room is like a luxurious leisure room, with a display screen everywhere, and a room that could have sat more than a dozen people has only four seats. Presumably, Li Fanzhi told the organizer in advance that only four people from his side participated in the auction.

And there is also a high-definition display hanging outside each room, which has the number of each room, and also shows the bidding for each room.

Ji Tianci's room for four people is arranged on the side of the first floor, and it is difficult to see each other between each room. Li Fanzhi said that most of the rooms on the first floor are arranged for sellers, and bidding is not allowed when auctioning off their own collections.

Soon it was nine o'clock, and the lights in the exhibition hall suddenly turned a soft blue, and the glass windows everywhere also glowed blue. The images of the fish also appeared on the glass, and the entire venue became an "underwater world", which is probably also for today's finale artifact "Sea Emperor Trident".

A graceful woman dressed in ancient Greek costume walked up to the booth to the soothing sound of a harp. This woman is stunningly beautiful, with long blond hair and a simple "Doria-style Heaton" on her body.

This kind of dress has no sleeves and has a rough shape. Only a single piece of cloth is folded horizontally in half to make a dress, and there is no need to cut it. Clothes protrude from the shoulders and waist of the human body. The limbs are exposed, and although the fabric is relatively heavy, it cannot hide the curves of the human body, so it is also called the "invisible shape" of clothing.

This woman is tall, with two long legs that are white and crystalline, and her face is pure but also mature and sexy.

The woman's voice was soft and pleasant, her mouth spoke English, the stereo in the small room also translated the Chinese languages at the same time, and the screens around were images from all angles of the booth.

This woman is the auctioneer in the first half of the auction, which will sell a total of 77 lots, 66 in the first half and 11 in the second half.

Li Fanzhi said to the three people in the room that the first half of the auction was all folk mortals, and his paintings were among them. The second half of the auction was all from the collection of the Temple of the Gods, which was also done to hide people's eyes.

The first piece of the collection was carefully pushed onto the stand by four European men, and it was simply covered with a dust cloth, and Ji Tianci could tell from the outline that it was an F1 car.

The auctioneer lifted the dust cloth, and there was a blue-and-white Formula 1 car with various "vintage" advertisements on the car.

The auctioneer's voice came again: "Elton Senna won his first world championship in '88, and this car is the same McLaren car that year, with a starting price of five million dollars." ”
