Chapter 19: The Auction

The dwarven shopkeeper had apparently not forgotten their agreement, and then again, who could forget the promise that would bring a lot of gold.

Bobby was dressed in a formal suit and had been waiting for a long time, but when he saw Du Yueming coming, he hurriedly greeted the cash cow with a smile on his face.

The two entered the watch shop, first of all, a business courtesy.

I don't know what mechanism Poppy triggered, but in the innermost part of the watch shop, a secret door quietly opened.

Bobby made a gesture of invitation to Du Yueming, and the two walked into the secret door one after the other. The light of the secret door was a little weak, and Poppy didn't light it, and the two of them turned around, and finally opened another door.

In the moonlight, a horse-drawn carriage was quietly parked in the empty street. The cart is pulled by a brightly colored solid horse, and the outside of the carriage is beautifully carved.

While the world has built steam locomotives, traditional horse-drawn carriages have not been obsolete. The use of such a relatively backward means of transport is not a shabby performance, on the contrary, it is called retro, and retro is an expensive habit. A beautifully designed carriage is definitely not inferior to a steam locomotive for the price.

The interior of the carriage is also quite luxurious, Du Yueming sits on it, feeling very stable and comfortable, compared to his own classic car, the experience brought by this carriage is better. I remember that before leaving, Reeson arranged a task for himself to spend money, although I don't know what the intention is, but it is not okay not to spend, after all, this is to be linked to the amount in the future.

Du Yueming bought a car and bought a house and squandered it, and now there are more than 90,000 gold coins left, and it seems that there is still a long way to go to spend money. If the auction is over and fixed assets can still be purchased, Du Yueming doesn't mind the whole carriage to enjoy.

Buying and buying casually, Du Yueming couldn't help but sigh that the life of rich people seems to be very happy, but it is often so unpretentious and boring.

The carriage heads north, leaving the watch shop where you are, and the destination is the North City district.

Beicheng District is close to Xiacheng District, which is considered a suburb of Yangxi City. The advantage here is that the environment is good, unlike the central city where there are so many chimneys. There are many manors and high-end private apartments, beautiful gardens and manicured greenery, while the lower town is a few walls away with a mess of tin houses and random piles of alchemy parts.

The contrast between the rich and the poor is perfectly presented, and it looks a little absurd just a few meters away.

When Du Yueming was still living in Xiacheng, in the dilapidated rotten airship, he used an old telescope to look at the prosperity here when he was bored, and he once thought that this was a place he would never get involved in. Because it's not just the distance that separates the walls.

"Little master, please. ”

The manor's vegetated iron door was gently pushed open by Bobby. The two of them walked briskly on the smooth marble road to the magnificent private villa in front of them.

Poppy handed an invitation to the pretty waitress at the door.

The interior of the villa is brightly lit, the dark red iron fence elevator door is opened by Bobby, and the two of them board the retro elevator with a combination of wood and parquet glass, and the chain bites to make a mechanical "click" sound, a heavy retro feeling.

Everything here is so delicate and full of texture, Du Yueming likes it very much, maybe this is the ability of money.

The light and shadow were staggered, and the elevator slowly stopped on the second floor.

The villa is hollowed out in the middle, with a circle of carved wooden balustrades, and the balustrade is flanked by a circular corridor with a gap every few meters, and each gap corresponds to a small hanging room, in which the scene of the auction house below can be seen at a glance.

Du Yueming and Bobby entered room seven, and in front of them was a large floor-to-ceiling window, and there were two sofas and a table with fine drinks and fine glasses, and delicious fruits on the glass plates.

"How is it? Is the young master satisfied? I have arranged the best private room for you. ”

"Hmm. Not bad. Du Yueming answered, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and the staff below were busy, carefully tidying up the venue.

"You know, this is a high-end auction organized by Walter Youqian, and it is only open to guests of your own status. ”

"Walter Youqian, is he?"

"Don't you know? He is the head of the Medici family in Yangxi City, the largest capitalist in Yangxi City, and his capital is all over the city, and he is the richest man in the city. Bobbi said, full of adoration and yearning in his words. Du Yueming could feel this guy's supreme thirst for money from afar.

"No wonder I am rich, this is really rich. Du Yueming complained.

"yes. I struggled to get an invitation, but ......" Poppy obviously didn't understand the homophonic stalk, and continued to talk.

Du Yue understood the meaning of his words, and generously threw him two gold coins. Bobby took the two golden cans, bit them with his teeth, and finally carefully received them in his pocket. Bobby, who accepted the gold coin, strengthened his lofty ambition to treat Du Yueming as his father in his heart. No, where is this for Dad, he is offering a living cash cow.

The god of machinery is above, let this little young master have a good time tonight, and spend 10,000 gold coins, so that he can draw a lot of commissions.

It has been said that money-hungry dwarves can even sell their souls and bodies to demons for money. I don't know if it's true. Of course, Du Yueming is not a demon, he is not interested in the soul of Bobby, a miser, even less in his body.

"I want to ask you something, is it okay?" Du Yueming put on a look of not caring about the money.

"Yes, of course, you can ask whatever you want. ”

"I would like information on the items for this auction. ”

"That's good, you wait a minute. Poppy ran out like a gust of wind.

Du Yueming smiled, Bobby's energy was very satisfying. In the process of squandering the gold coins, he seemed to have found something intangible.

"This is definitely the most detailed item in this auction. A moment later, Poppy ran back with a pamphlet.

"Good. Du Yueming took the booklet and didn't rush to read it. He has almost grasped Bobby's character, as long as he gives money, this guy will definitely sell you wholeheartedly, once you are stingy, then this guy must have reservations about you.

Du Yueming was very happy, because the last thing he lacked now was those round golden things.

"Do you have any other requirements? Would you like to taste a good Roland, I can find you a few more fabulous chicks, if you wish to do so." Bobby flattered.

"That's not necessary for the time being. Go get me a notebook and a pen. Du Yueming said, touched two more gold coins, and stuffed them into Bobby's palm. Bobby's old face smiled brightly.

"Notebook and pen, what are you going to do?" Bobby was a little puzzled by Du Yueming's request. What kind of temperament is this young master? Last time I heard a story and made a map of the world, this time I was not interested in beautiful women and wine, and I wanted these things.

Du Yueming didn't make a sound. Bobby didn't say anything more, and hurriedly ran up and down to find a notebook and a pen for Du Yueming.

"The auction is about to start. ”

"yes. ”

"With this booklet of yours, it should be fine. ”

"Of course, no problem, this booklet's collection of treasures is absolutely complete, and it is all marked. ”

"Hmm. Very well, then you're okay now. ”

"It seems like there's nothing wrong with me. ”

"Then use this pen and notebook to help me copy the knight's manifesto 100 times. ”

"Hmm. Okay, young master...... 100 times the Knight's Manifesto !!"
