Chapter Two Hundred and Eight: Crazy Auction
(New week, ask for recommendation votes!)
Half an hour later, Liang Qiufeng walked out of a lively tea shop, his whole person's clothes changed, he looked gray, his back was a little hunched, like a sick man. He glanced around and slowly left. After turning two streets, I walked into a restaurant, and after a quarter of an hour, I walked out again.
At this time, he completely recovered his original appearance, and he was a vigorous teenager. It's a pity that the outfit is plain, the saber is gloomy, and it looks very ordinary.
After a long circle of going around and around, he could be sure that no one was following. It seems that Zhenyuan Commercial Bank is very well-behaved and does not arrange tails.
For this reason, for Tianbao Commercial Bank, I appreciate it a little more.
Liang Qiufeng, who restored his true face, did not hurry back, and the treasure was shot out, and the resources were in hand, and he solved a big problem. However, since he came to Huaizuo Mansion, it would be too hurried to come and go.
After thinking about it, he decided to return to Zhenyuan Commercial Bank and participate in the auction held. As Miss San said, maybe you can really meet something of interest.
This time to enter, of course, is the main gate.
The auction held by Zhenyuan Commercial Bank today has a threshold, and it is not something that anyone can enter casually. Either holding an invitation card, or having a name card specially issued by the firm as a VIP, or paying 100 catties of Lingmi, which is considered an entrance fee.
Liang Qiufeng didn't have any of these invitation cards, he had traded with Miss San before, but he forgot to ask her for one. At the moment, the only way to go in is to pay 100 catties of spiritual rice and find an empty seat in the ordinary hall to sit down.
The hall was dark, thousands of people, and no one cared about him as a newcomer.
The auction house of Zhenyuan Commercial Bank is extremely spacious and spacious, divided into ordinary halls and VIP rooms. The VIP room is located on the second floor and has a commanding view of the entire auction house. Naturally, the treatment they received was far from being enjoyed by those sitting in ordinary halls.
Of course, getting VIP status is not an easy task.
The auction has already begun and is in full swing.
According to the inertia, the things auctioned at the beginning are the lowest in value, from low to high, and finally the real good things, such as the "Huanglong Dao Sword" of the top grade of the treasure, which belongs to the treasure of the finale, and will not be put on the market until the last minute.
I believe that when the time comes, the big names in the VIP seats will seriously invest in it and conduct fierce bidding.
The things in the previous auction are of course average, but they are also good things for those who are waiting for idle warriors. Many of these things are rare to see in the market, so at this time, they have made bids, and the bidding has come and gone, and the atmosphere is very lively.
Liang Qiufeng saw such a scene for the first time, and he watched it with relish.
"Three thousand five hundred catties of spiritual rice, the first time, is there a higher price?"
"The second time!"
"The third time, the deal. Congratulations to this friend for obtaining this excellent herb 'Blue Sky Yinqiu'. ”
A palace beauty who was in charge of presiding over the auction smiled and dropped the mallet......
Just when everyone was waiting for the next lot, someone suddenly came out from behind the curtain and whispered a few words to the palace beauty.
The palace beauty nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "Next, the third lady of our Zhenyuan Commercial Bank has something to tell you." ”
"Third Miss?"
Hearing the news, the scene suddenly seemed to be ignited, and it burst into flames.
The name of Yang Shuanglan, the third lady of Zhenyuan Commercial Bank, is extremely famous not only in Huaizuo Mansion, but also in the entire Tang Kingdom. If you can listen to the words of the beauty, even if you pay an extra hundred catties of spiritual rice to enter, it is worth it.
In an instant, many people couldn't help but stand up and lean forward, hoping to see more realistically.
Soon, the third lady Yang Shuanglan, who was full of manners, took the stage, first smiled sweetly, I don't know how many souls were hooked, and then said slowly:
"The concubine is here, hindering everyone for a little time, mainly to announce the firm's plan to open a chūn auction next year......"
Hearing this, many people are a little confused.
Zhenyuan Firm's Yang Chūn auction is of a very high standard, and it is well known that it is held once a year, and there is no need to notify so early at all, but I don't know what medicine is sold in her gourd.
I heard Yang Shuanglan continue: "There is good news, that is, I Zhenyuan Commercial Bank has acquired a piece of high-quality Jiaolong's blood stone, this stone will be carved and polished by the famous Master Zuo, and several pieces of jewelry will be taken out for auction at the Yang Chūn auction, and I invite you to join ...... at that time."
"What, Dragon's Bloodstone?"
One sentence stirred up a thousand waves, and the whole auction was a sensation. Including many big people who were originally sitting in the VIP seat, they couldn't help but move.
Next year's Yang Chūn auction will have an auction of jewelry made of dragon's bloodstone, and the news has spread in general and caused waves to even make many people feel unhappy about the next auction.
The ornaments inlaid with dragon blood stones, worn on them, can speed up the recovery efficiency of the vitality in the body, and even some low-grade pills are much better than Lingmi. The most important thing is that the effect of carrying things on the body is all the time and has incomparable advantages.
For example, in a fierce battle, there are rapid changes, how can the enemy let you take out the spiritual rice and take out the elixir to gnaw it? I am afraid that as soon as you stretch out your hand, there will be a flaw and you will be killed on the spot.
The ornaments worn are different, they don't need to be ignored at all, they don't need to be excited, and they have a completely automatic effect, which is extremely significant.
In addition, after being made into an ornament, it can also be worn on the body to add a sense of beauty.
Ornaments made of dragon's blood stone have always been the most sought-after treasures on the market, and their prices remain high, and they are often priceless.
Now that he heard that Zhenyuan Commercial Bank had such a treasure auction, it immediately aroused everyone's desire.
Yang Shuanglan wanted this effect, smiled slightly, said some more words, and then stepped down.
The auction continued, but many people were a little absent-minded, and the scene seemed cold.
"The auction below is a bit special. Well, a hundred slaves. However, these slaves were all healthy teenagers of fourteen or fifteen years old, both male and female. One hundred slaves, divided into ten groups, each group of ten people, each group started shooting, 1,000 catties of spiritual rice. Each time the price is increased by 100 catties......"
When Liang Qiufeng heard it below, he couldn't help but be stunned: Why, even people can auction it? This is too mysterious.
He had never heard of anything like it.
I couldn't help but ask a person sitting next to me.
The man was thinking about it, as if he was still thinking about what Yang Shuanglan said, looking forward to the precious ornaments made of Jiaolong's bloodstone, and said in a flash: "The auction sells slaves, it's very strange, you are new." ”
Liang Qiufeng nodded.
The man coughed dryly and spoke playfully.
It turned out that in the Shenzhou Continent, between the seven kingdoms, wars would occasionally break out and attack each other. When war broke out and people were displaced, slaves were born. In addition, in the kingdom, there are civilians who are in distress and unable to make ends meet, and when they are desperate, they will also sell themselves into slavery.
Over time, slaves came into being, increasing in number and even forming a class.
Slaves have no rights, they are equivalent to goods, and they are at the disposal of their masters. There is a special slave trading shop in the market, and the market is good.
Among them are jīng Ming merchants, who select young and healthy people, combine them, and sell them at auction, which can be sold at a high price.
This kind of thing is commonplace, but Liang Qiufeng didn't know it when he first came.
After hearing this, he shook his head at first, and then as if he remembered something, he patted his thigh, looking excited and excited.
When the man saw it, he pouted, and secretly disdainful: Hillbilly.
But then the "hillbilly" took him by surprise.
Liang Qiufeng actually participated in the bidding of slaves, and first bought the first group of slaves for 1,500 catties of spiritual rice.
Actually, this is not a surprise.
However, Liang Qiufeng had no intention of stopping, continued to hold up his cards, and bought the second and third groups of slaves...... Until the sixth group, the seventh group...... Group 10.
Take them all.
The man's eyes widened, and he looked at Liang Qiufeng like a monster: What is this hillbilly doing buying so many slaves?
You know, so many people, so many mouths, even if the treatment is bad, you still have to eat.
Crazy, absolutely crazy.
Some people think that Liang Qiufeng must be a disciple of a certain sect, and he accepted the task of the sect to buy people to work in the mountain gate.
This kind of thing happens all the time. (To be continued.) )
