Chapter 43: Fierce Bidding
Although the woman seemed extremely polite, there was a hint of a cute smile on her face. But that kind of worry, the fear from the bottom of my heart, can't be hidden, and I can't escape Gu Yan's eyes.
"Miss Xiang'er, don't worry, I know your worries. I know who does this business, but I'm not a good person, and then I will explain to Steward Wang that I will serve you when I don't participate in auctions in the future. I think Steward Wang should be able to give me some thin noodles. Gu Yan said lightly.
Suddenly, the Xiang'er girl knelt in front of Gu Yan with tears in her eyes, "Thank you, young master, thank you, young master." As a clapping hand in a VIP room, she naturally knows their status and role. It is said to help the guests with the auction, but most of them are just to accompany the guests to have fun.
After all, from the moment they were bought, their lives and bodies were already predestined. Just last time, she clearly saw one of her clapping hands together, and it was better to be tortured by the guests. So she was also worried that she would suffer the same fate, but she couldn't resist it, after all, fate was never in her own hands.
But Gu Yan was very considerate, and even promised to tell the king steward that he would protect her, which was undoubtedly a life saver for her. Therefore, it is normal to be grateful to Gu Yan to tears.
Gu Yan nodded, and then Na Xiang'er began to stand behind Gu Yan. And Pang Hai sat on the chair early and ate the spirit fruit, without caring about face or anything like that. Gu Yan, on the other hand, looked at everything in the auction hall through a large crystal mirror in front of him.
"Xiang'er, do you know the identities of the guests in those VIP rooms?" Gu Yan said casually, after all, it was the first time he came to Sanfu City, and he had no impression of many forces and characters in Sanfu City. I hope to get some useful information from Xiang'er's mouth, because as a clapper, I still know some basic information.
"Young master, except for a few people, basically Xiang'er has seen it, especially the characters in the VIP room opposite. From left to right, there are the usual VIP rooms for the patriarchs of the three major towns to participate in the auction, while the other VIP rooms are generally used as a situation like the young master. Of course, there will be special circumstances. ”
"For example, some owners who auction important things can apply for a VIP room, and in addition, they can also buy a VIP seat for a large price. Because the identities of the people in the VIP room are basically confidential, some people will also consider the VIP room for the sake of safety. Xiang'er whispered to Gu Yan to introduce those who had a little status in Sanfu City.
Suddenly, Pang Hai saw a familiar face, "Master, I know the man in white who is sitting in the second row of the hall." Last time, it was the person who fought with me on the border between Cangshan and another mountain, according to him, he himself said that he was from the Xu village, and it seemed that the strength of the Xu village was not low. Pang Hai said while reminiscing.
Suddenly, Gu Yan also paid a little attention to that person, and found that he should be with their patriarch, which patriarch's strength is not bad, just like Gu Yan, peeking at the ninth order of the martial realm. But if it is about combat power, Gu Yan will naturally not take it seriously.
Later, Xiang'er also introduced the situation of this Xu village to Gu Yan, this Xu village is another mountain adjacent to Cangshan, a village with a status similar to the previous goshawk tribe, and its strength is not low. But in Gu Yan's opinion, it is just average, and the tricky thing is that he is said to have a close relationship with the Longshi town.
However, this still can't stop Gu Yan's determination to rise up of the Gu Long clan, and even if Gu Long is promoted to a town government-level clan, it is impossible to snatch the super mountain range that has been divided with the three old town governments, so Gu Yan's idea is naturally to fight in several large mountain ranges adjacent to Cangshan.
Since the Xu village occupies a large mountain, a fight is inevitable. So even if he had a close relationship with the Hui Clan's town government, Gu Yan would not be afraid at all.
At this time, the entire auction hall was already crowded and lively. "Master, this auction venue is so big, it can accommodate at least tens of thousands of people. Looking at the huge crowd, Pang Hai couldn't help but sigh.
Instead, Xiang'er smiled slightly, "Xiang'er, there are so many people at every auction?" Gu Yan asked lightly. Because he also felt that such a scene was a bit exaggerated, after all, there were too many people attending the auction, and almost all the famous tribes of the Hengduan Mountains came.
"Young Master, no. This kind of scene can only be seen in a large-scale annual auction like this, and only at such an auction will Tianbao Pavilion send out a large number of invitations. Xiang'er looked at Gu Yan a little stupidly, not only attracted by Gu Yan's handsome appearance, but also by Gu Yan's unique aura.
At this time, the whole auction seemed to be about to begin, and a beautiful woman was smiling and very attractive on a circular auction table in the center of the auction hall. Dressed in a red shallow back suit, red and bright lips, hooking eyebrows, a devilish figure, and an irresistible temptation.
Xiang'er also seemed to notice Gu Yan's eyes, and a trace of loss flashed in her eyes, "Young Master, at that time, we were the full-time auctioneer of the large-scale auction of Tianbao Pavilion-Dancer. She has presided over many large-scale auctions, and each of the auctions she has presided over has been very successful, bringing a lot of benefits to the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion. ”
Gu Yan nodded approvingly, such an auctioneer. It's already embarrassing not to arouse the anger of the crowd, let alone the auction hosted by her, wouldn't the price be doubled. It's no wonder that Tianbao Pavilion will ask her to be the chief auctioneer, and according to Xiang'er, this dancer is also the owner of a famous archway in Sanfu City.
At this time, the auction finally entered the beginning stage, "First of all, on behalf of the organizer of this auction, Tianbao Pavilion, welcome your arrival, the auction is more familiar to everyone, the rules of my dancer will not say more, or that sentence, the auction of things, the highest price wins." ”
These words came out of the dancer's seductive mouth, and everyone immediately responded enthusiastically with a lot of face. Some even stood up and applauded, just a fool, and no one would even look at him.
And standing on the side turned out to be an acquaintance Gu Yan knew, Chen Lao, a chair, and he sat alone. "Everyone, the old man Tianbao Pavilion Class B auctioneer, everyone understands the rules of the auction, but if someone is temporarily short of gold coins and wants to exchange it, the old man can estimate it on his behalf, and then give a price quote. ”
"In the end, it can be traded by the auction house or bought by someone else present. After Chen Lao finished speaking, a pair of guards appeared from the backstage, guarding the surroundings of the central round platform. What surprised Gu Yan was that those guards were all the strength of the ninth order of the Voyeur Martial Realm, and I relied on it, it was worthy of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, and it was a big deal.
This kind of combat power is enough to shock the audience, not to mention that this is Tianbao Pavilion, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no more powerful characters to protect it. That's why the whole auction went so smoothly.
Soon, the first item was put on the auction table, an iron sword with soft copper, worth more than gold coins, and was finally sold for fifty gold coins. In this way, every auction item is very sought-after, and it has caused a lot of competition.
It wasn't until the twentieth lot was auctioned that the atmosphere of the scene was brought to the edge of the fire. At this time, the things auctioned are almost of some level, not like the previous ordinary goods.
"Now that I'm going to write something, I hope everyone can have a good time and have a good time. As she spoke, the dancer took out a wooden plate covered with a black cloth and tore it open.
"Treasure the ore - Mithril. I think you all know this kind of thing, it increases the toughness of your weapons, and it also makes your weapons sharper. Especially for some things like spear heads, the starting price is two hundred gold coins, and each increase cannot be less than ten gold coins. ”
Looking at the black Mithril, Gu Yan was finally slightly moved. Because he knew the value of this Mithril. For a gun lover like him, Mithril is a very desirable thing. But the others also knew the value of Mithril, and the atmosphere was suddenly very hot.
"Lao Tzu gave out two hundred and fifty gold coins. A big man said rudely, "What a fool, I want to auction Mithril for two hundred and fifty gold coins, and I bid three hundred gold coins." A man with an iron spear in his hand said loudly.
But three hundred gold coins was just an appetizer, and at the same time, some of the people in the VIP room finally started bidding. "I, Lin Tian, bid five hundred gold coins. A voice popped up.
"It turned out to be Lin Tian, the youngest son of the patriarch of Lin Dong, it is said that he has extremely high talent in martial arts, and he is also a master of using guns. Some people started talking.
"Lin Tian, five hundred gold coins, I will bid six hundred gold coins. The person in the other VIP room also came out, it was obvious that it was the old rival of the Lin Clan's town government, and the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became very depressing, after all, the power represented by the two was already weighty enough.
Gu Yan smiled and said to Xiang'er, "Xiang'er, help me bid seven hundred gold coins." Suddenly, with Gu Yan's bid again, the atmosphere on the scene suddenly changed, and everyone's eyes began to shift to the VIP room where Gu Yan was located. But surprisingly, everyone in the two towns did not bid, and it seemed that a tacit agreement had been reached.
"The owner of VIP Room No. 4 bid 700 gold coins, is there anything higher than this?This is a precious Mithril, don't miss it!" The dancer seemed to be a coaxing master, but no one made any more bids, and finally cheapened Gu Yan. The first ** of the auction stopped inexplicably, which seemed very strange.
This price also surprised the dancer a little, she originally thought that the transaction price of this Mithril was about 1,000 gold coins, but she didn't expect it to be destroyed by Gu Yan's Cheng Biting Gold. At the same time, he was also a lot more curious about Gu Yan's identity, and he was so bold that he dared to offend the two major town government forces at once.
