Chapter 1171: Auction (I)

Early the next morning, Jiang Chen stretched and sat up from the bed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After washing up, Jiang Chen yawned and walked into the kitchen next to him, took out a box of instant pasta and a carton of milk from the storage space, and stuffed them into the microwave oven on the cupboard.

Bringing milk and pasta drizzled with tomato sauce to the table, Jiang Chen was about to enjoy breakfast when Lu Fan knocked on the door and walked in, and after standing in front of him, he gave a military salute.

"Yuan ...... Owner, it's an invitation from the hotel manager. ”

"Invitation?"

Yawning, Jiang Chen put down the fork in his hand, took the invitation from Lu Fan's hand, opened it and glanced at it, with an interested expression on his face.

There was an auction at 10 a.m. at the Dorsett Hotel, which was held in the lobby on the second floor, and he was holding an invitation to the auction in his hand, which also included an admission ticket.

Although he did not register for the auction, because he lived in the presidential suite on the top floor, the hotel manager certainly did not miss such a big deal, whether he registered for the auction or not, he ordered someone to respectfully send an invitation, and prepared a VIP box for him, with the most beautiful card bearer.

After all, except for the real local tyrants, no one went to live in the presidential suite for 200 Yajing a night.

You must know that the income from hunting one dead claw is only about 50 subcrystals, and the price of staying for one night is equivalent to fighting with 4 dead claws. In addition to having a lot of money and having nowhere to spend, even the rich with small assets will not waste their money on accommodation.

Anyway, there are no other arrangements in the morning, so I'll take a look at it later.

Thinking so, Jiang Chen threw the invitation aside and continued to enjoy his breakfast.

……

There are ten minutes left before the auction starts.

Under the reception of the waiter, Jiang Chen entered the auction hall from the VIP passage and came to the VIP box prepared for him by the Emgrand Hotel.

Respectfully pushing open the wooden door, the waiter bowed slightly to Jiang Chen, then stepped aside and made a gesture of please inside.

Decorative mahogany beams run through the roof, wooden floors are covered with velvet carpets made of unknown animal skins, and dozens of square meters of rooms are lined with antique furniture. Even by pre-war standards, the dΓ©cor can be described as extravagant.

In the VIP room, a beautiful card bearer in a cheongsam is standing at a mahogany table.

When she saw Jiang Chen, she bowed to him with a smile, and the neckline of the cheongsam inadvertently revealed a large area of snow-white skin. A smile and a gesture are all a little seductive.

After taking a few glances at this VIP room, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart, being able to hold such a big industry on Ping'an Street, and thinking that the boss who came here was also a powerful person.

Of course, no matter how powerful he is, he is nothing in front of him.

So he just sighed, but there was no half of the turmoil in his heart.

At this moment, the waiter took out a business card from his bosom and respectfully handed it to him.

"This is our boss's business card, and I hope Mr. will accept it. ”

"Business card?" Taking the business card, Jiang Chen looked at it casually with a smile, "Your boss's name is Mei Zhiyong?"

"Exactly," a flash of pride flashed on the waiter's face, "The Emgrand Hotel is only one of the properties under our boss's name, although he has not joined the Survivor Alliance, but the power of that lord in Shangjing City is only between the members of the Alliance and several survivors. ”

"So your boss is very powerful, right?" Jiang Chen said with a smile.

The waiter smiled, not at all arrogant because of his identity as a boss, and said respectfully.

"I don't mean anything else, just listen to your accent, you should be from the South. Our boss recently bought two caravans and is doing business with the survivor colony over there in Wanghai City. As the saying goes, one more friend and one more road, the boss told me that if I see a big businessman from the south, I must be kind to entertain and hand over my business card...... So, I hope you don't see it, sir. ”

"The process of the auction will be introduced by the tag lifter, and I wish you the best of luck in the auction. ”

Bowing again, the waiter didn't bother Jiang Chen anymore, and exited the door with great interest.

Entering the room, Jiang Chen sat on the old man's chair and looked at the crowd in the dark hall of the auction venue.

The windows of the VIP Club are one-way transparent glass, and only a blurry figure can be seen from the outside, but the outside is very clear from the inside, which can be said to ensure the personal privacy of the guests in the VIP room to the greatest extent.

After all, it's not just valuable things that will be auctioned here, but also some things that are "unknown", and if people remember their appearance, it will be a trouble after all.

It is for this reason that even when sitting in the ordinary seats in the venue, bidders wear masks that are randomly distributed by the hotel, and there is only one brand name representing their identity.

A pamphlet was presented, and the beautiful sign-bearer said with a smile on her face.

"This is the catalogue of the auction items, if you like something, just tell me?"

"Well, got it. ”

Responding casually, Jiang Chen took the booklet and flipped through a few pages casually.

In terms of specifications, this auction is undoubtedly quite high-level. Putting aside the dozen or so VIP and VIP boxes, there are hundreds of businessmen and wealthy people sitting in the ordinary seats in the hall alone. The larger the size of the auction, the more good things you can think of.

And this is indeed the case, when he was flipping through the booklet, Jiang Chen's face suddenly aroused a trace of interest...... Or rather, a surprising, intriguing smile.

"How can you be here?" muttered to himself, his fingers sliding over the lot, jotting down the number, and quietly flipped to the next page.

The venue was crowded, and a light suddenly lit up on the platform in the center.

In the midst of the uproar, the host walked onto the platform, clapped his hands, motioned for everyone to look over to his side, and then announced the start of the auction......

In general, the process here is similar to that of the present world.

The host blew the auction items into a daze, and all the local tyrants competed to raise their cards. The auction items also stand out for a wide variety of commodities that bankrupt merchants are eager to get rid of, to ingenious high-tech products, to a case of canned beef, and even a living person.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ The next auction item is, Zhao Qiuran! Many people should have heard of her name, yes, she is the lone traveler who is active in Haizhou. Because of a mistake, he was captured by a gang of marauders. By the way, in order to get a good price, the seller hasn't played yet, you know what I mean. Ahem. Muscle Strength 41, Bone Strength 30, Reflex Nerve 37, Brain Cell Activity 13, Marksmanship Rating S, Fighting Rating A+, Stealth Rating B...... Starting price, 1500 subcrystals!"

A woman with a disheveled head, in the Orz pose, was fastened to a cart with a metal stand and pushed into the center of the platform by two bodyguards with guns. Under the light, the host grabbed her loose hair and showed her appearance to the buyers sitting in the audience.
