Chapter XVI Auctions
With the men on stage, the auction officially began.
The first lot on display was an ancient sword with a three-foot length, a little shorter than the current four-foot-long sword, and a checkered pattern on the sword.
The man picked up the long sword and listened only to the sound of "buzzing ......". As soon as the sword was unsheathed, a long roar resounded throughout the audience. If you look closely, the whole sword is streamlined, and there is a black light hidden at the blade.
The man first introduced the origin of this sword, this sword is the sword of the founding general of Zhongchu Chang Sheng, this general called Chang Sheng and his name are the same, for the founding of Zhongchu made great contributions, he fought in the north and south, did not taste a defeat, and it was this sword called "Ming" that accompanied him across the battlefield.
After the man finished the introduction, he began to ask for the price.
"Ming Jian, 100 taels of silver to start shooting. ”
Some people quoted one after another, but the price increase was not large, and the difference was only five taels to ten taels of silver.
This made Han Ming very puzzled, according to this man, this sword should be sold at a very expensive price, I don't know why everyone is not interested.
"Brother Wen, this sword is a famous sword, why don't everyone like to shoot it? Could it be that there is any other story in it?"
Wen Cheng had already seen Han Ming's doubts and was about to explain to him, but Han Ming spoke first, since this was the case, he gave Han Ming a detailed lecture.
"Brother Han guessed well, this sword is a famous sword, and the person who holds this sword has basically never lost a battle, so it is also called the sword of constant victory. However, this sword is very evil, and those who get it are all lonely and old people. Although the sword is good, there are many people who are afraid of this curse, and not many people dare to accept it. ”
After Wen Cheng's explanation, Han Ming finally knew the reason, but he didn't believe in such ridiculous rumors, any curse, it was all a group of people who used false rumors and blind summaries to make people panic. I like this sword a lot, but I just don't have the money to shoot it, it's a pity.
In the end, this sword was photographed by an old man wearing a black coat, Han Ming also took a special look at the old man, and found that there were many people wearing black clothes and hoods around him, which looked quite mysterious. He thought about getting one himself in the future, and watched the boom like this.
After the sword is auctioned, the next thing to auction is some strange things. Han Ming was not too interested, what snow mountain grass curtain fish, the big green bear in the north, the flaming horse of the Rong country, the good jade unearthed in the cross, and some precious medicinal materials, to name a few, although precious, it was not surprising.
Han Ming felt the atmosphere of the auction for the first time, everyone said a word, they could fight for a snow lotus, and they could also humble each other when they met opponents of equal strength, it was like a movie, compared to the auction, Han Ming was more interested in these people who participated in the auction.
But there are also people who are more strange, such as those wearing black cloaks, as if the whole auction has nothing to do with them. Except for the old man who took the sword away at the beginning, the other people in black cloaks have not even paid a price, and they don't know what they are here for.
However, these people are not the only ones who have not bid, Cui Ying and Liang Feng on this high platform have not made bids. But come to think of it, these things, it is estimated that they can't look at them, and they may be waiting for the big head behind.
However, what Han Ming didn't expect was that during the auction, Wen Cheng auctioned a residence, which was not far from the Prince's Mansion and was not small in scale.
Han Ming thought that Wen Cheng was having fun, but he didn't expect that when the waiter gave the house deed and title deed to Wen Cheng, Wen Cheng didn't even look at it and gave it to Han Ming directly, which caught him off guard, the big clan was really different, with a lot of money, and a house of more than 800 taels was given away, without even blinking his eyes.
Han Ming was embarrassed to accept it at first, but then he thought about it, although he lived in the prince's mansion, the prince had no opinion, but after living for a long time, he would inevitably feel bad, he had a house, and it would be much more convenient to do anything in the future, so he was embarrassed to accept it.
The auction lasted for an hour, and it was almost sold out, and it was about to be the highlight of today's auction.
Sure enough, the man from the auction house walked up to the stage and began to say: "Next, it is the finale of today's auction, the East China Sea fluorescent beads. With that, a waitress came up with a plate covered with a black cloth, and the man lifted the black cloth, revealing the fluorescent beads inside. The bead was the size of an egg, and it was dazzling with a white light.
The auctioneer continued: "This East China Sea fluorescent beads, taken from the depths of the East China Sea, is said to be the heart of the merman, fluorescent beads are originally peerless treasures, if they are accompanied by the weak body of the woman all the year round, they can drive away evil spirits and strengthen the body, and the use of rejuvenating the face and replenishing yin is really rare in the world, and such a large fluorescent bead is absolutely rare in the world." If you are interested, the starting price is 1,000 taels. ”
As soon as the man's voice fell, the people below began to bid, from one thousand taels to two thousand five hundred taels, at this time, the number of people who offered the price began to become fewer and fewer, and when the price was about to be set at three thousand taels, Cui Ying from the high platform made a bid.
"Four thousand taels. Cui Ying didn't say much, she directly added a thousand taels when she opened her mouth, she is a woman, she loves this fluorescent bead very much, and she is bound to get this fluorescent bead.
Just when everyone thought that Cui Ying had decided this fluorescent bead, Liang Feng, who had never spoken, made a price.
"Four thousand five hundred taels. ”
What everyone didn't expect was that this Liang Feng would also fight for this bead, and he would add such a high price as soon as he opened his mouth. It stands to reason that this bead is just a treasure, and generally no man will fight for a bead, this Liang Feng's approach is really different.
"Five thousand taels, can Liang Gongzi give the little woman a thin noodle and give me this bead, I think you are the second son of the Liang family, and you will not fight with the little woman for this thing." Cui Ying said to Liang Feng with a smile.
"Five thousand five hundred taels, where did Miss Cui say, Miss Cui's face Liang should be given, if it is something else, I will definitely give it to Miss, but this is very important to the next, forgive me. Liang Feng was not polite, and replied in a firm tone.
"You...... Hmph, six thousand taels, I don't believe you can add it. "Six thousand taels to buy a fluorescent bead, no matter how precious it is, it can't be worth it, Cui Ying can come up with this price, it is already out of the way. It seems that women really don't have much resistance in front of jewelry.
"Seven thousand taels. Liang Feng didn't even blink, and directly shouted out a number. This bead is indeed very important to him, he was going to spend his blood to buy this thing, and if Cui Ying still comes, he will still add it until he gets it.
Cui Ying's eyes were spewing fire, staring at Liang Feng deadly, she didn't understand why Liang Feng wanted to fight her like this, just a fluorescent bead.
She is a businessman, and she will not spend more money for a bead, so she had to say to Liang Feng: "Liang Gongzi, you are wealthy, you are very powerful today, since Liang Gongzi likes it, then you can take it, and the little woman will not fight with you." Although she boasted about it, she was already thinking about how to take revenge on Liang Feng in her heart, and she wanted to make Liang Feng regret what happened today.
It seems that as the old saying goes, it is better to mess with villains than to mess with women.
However, Liang Feng didn't seem to hear Cui Ying's words, he kept his eyes closed, and he didn't know if he was worried about money or thinking about something else.
When the fluorescent beads were photographed, Han Ming also took a special look at Kuang Yue, and found that Kuang Yue did not show a strange expression towards the fluorescent beads except for some light in his eyes.
"Doesn't the princess like this bead?" asked Han Ming.
"I like it, I like it, there are also it in the palace, although it is not as bright as this one, not as big as this one, but there are those who spend nearly 10,000 taels of silver to buy a bead, if my imperial brother knows, he will not kill me." Kuang Yue said.
Han Ming listened to Kuang Yue's words, and was a little crying and laughing, it turned out that this girl had long been tired of seeing fluorescent beads, and it was really the same person's fate, which made him envious.
After the fluorescent beads were bought by Liang Feng, the next thing was the last thing in this auction.
A maid came out with a plate covered with a yellow cloth, so that it was impossible to see clearly.
In an inconspicuous corner of the hall.
"Big brother, can't you go up?" said a man in a black robe to another older man next to him.
"Wait a minute, we'll go up as soon as the old man of the Pavilion quotes. ”
"Yes. ”
When the cloth of the last thing was removed, the old man began to explain the origin of the thing.
"This is something found in the relics of the Far Qin Dynasty, in order to get this thing, we lost a battle qi master, presumably speaking of which, the value of this thing is self-evident. From now on, the starting price is five thousand taels. ”
When Han Ming saw this thing at first, he only felt very familiar, and the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became, this thing, isn't it Jane, but I don't know what material it is made of, but this thing that connects the strips together with silk threads is definitely Jane, that's right.
When I came to this world, it was the first time I saw Jane, and they usually wrote things on yellow paper made of miscellaneous skin and thick juice, and important information was also written on cloth, and Jane had never been used. So Han Ming was very sure that this Jane must not be something of this world. I heard the old man say just now that it was unearthed from the Far Qin Relic Land, it seems that he was right, this Far Qin Relic Land must be related to the doubts in his heart, and he must go to see if he can find some answers he wants when he has the opportunity.
When Han Ming was thinking about this thing, the price of this Jane had already been shouted to seven thousand taels, but the enthusiasm for shouting had not decreased at all, and there was a trend of continuous increase.
Han Ming was also frightened when he saw this situation, he didn't expect that this was just something unearthed in the Far Qin Relic Land that was so valuable, it seemed that this Far Qin Relic Land must be an important place, and it might not be so easy to go.
Just when everyone was shouting hotly, an old voice shouted out a price.
"Ten thousand taels. ”
Just when everyone was wondering who quoted the price, a change broke out.
