Chapter 91: The Auction (I)

After coming to his senses, Ifu returned to the inner chamber of the book tower.

Just reading these two books, she thinks that Tilting Peach will not do such a thing.

At least her ability to risk her life to save her friends was enough to make Isuke trust her a little more.

Well, this is her speculation, and it is definitely not because people are good-looking.

I was about to go to Vapperyon, but I saw a canary on the road, and after learning Ifu's destination, the canary asked to go together, and Ifu did not refuse, and the two went to find Vopperion together.

Vopperion fiddled with two rings in his residence, and when the canary saw this, he exclaimed, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and you're making too fast progress, aren't you?"

"See, do you want to use such a ring for a marriage proposal!" Goo Mo saw Yi Fu and immediately threw himself into her arms.

Vapperion placed the two rings on the table, and Ifu held them in the palm of his hand so that the two could see the details of the rings.

It is two pure white masks.

Although the color is monotonous, the workmanship is exquisite, the whole is frosted texture, and the eyes of the mask are a smooth mask, expanding outward, like a bird's wings, and the white nose and lips are somewhat transparent.

Yi Fu instantly understood, raised his head and said excitedly: "This is what you said before about 'admission qualifications'?"

"It looks like it's hard to replicate. Looking at such a complex process, and switching the production techniques and materials several times, the canary only said one word.

She didn't ask for the address of the auction, and it would make her feel guilty if she revealed the location to Camos, and he did something unexpected to implicate Ifu.

Originally, he was also a friend and foe, so it was better to be cautious.

Thinking like this, she asked, "Yifu, can you tell me the news you got from the auction as soon as possible?"

"No problem, it was supposed to be an exchange of information. Ifu agreed.

Vopperion looked at the canary, speechless.

The auction will be held at 24 o'clock today.

Before leaving, Gu Mo reluctantly waved his hand: "Gu Mo still has information to sort out, it's all to blame on the fierce uncle, Gu Mo and Lord Xi'an can't play together." ”

"Goo Mo good, come back and bring you snacks!"

Saying goodbye to Gu Mo, Yi Fu asked, "What information did you ask Gu Mo to sort out, so urgent." ”

"The information sent by Miss Hongyan in the past few days seems to involve the previous grievances between the two families, of course, sorting out is just an excuse, I don't want this group to disturb us. ”

"You—" Before Ifu could finish speaking, Vopperion pressed a soft object to her face and patted it gently, and the thing naturally fit on it.

After putting Ifu's face in order, Vopperion put it on for himself, just like before, and Ifu saw that it was a human skin mask.

After that, he chose two more wigs, and Ifu looked at Vopperion and himself in the mirror, without any sense of disobedience, and she seemed to have become a different person.

"Now it's time to go. He was satisfied.

On the carriage, Yi Fu looked at the ring in his hand and said curiously, "By the way, how did you get this?"

"Bought. ”

"Buy, buy?" Ifu was dumbfounded.

"After you left, I went to the tavern again, in addition to the deposit in advance, and added 200,000 real money to his private pocket, the man was happy to give it, but... Admission qualifications can be easily bought, presumably there are other mysteries in the auction, most of them are genuine items mixed with their real purpose, and ordinary people have no way of knowing. ”

"I see... No, where did you get all this money?"

"Do you know the 'old coins'?" Vopperion asked, and Yi Fu nodded, "It is said that before the issuance of the Moon Coin, the entire Moon Domain used the old coins issued by Kashgar, but the Kashgar Dynasty only began to issue and use the Moon Coins after the Moon Domain disappeared. ”

Yifu remembered what he had learned in Kashgar, the new coins used by merchants and commoners, and the old coins used by the nobles.

Not only Kashgar, but also Enkland and Xina also use the currency of Kashgar.

"Well, it's just that Kashgar has only issued currency in the Moon Domain and the Intermediate Zone, but I didn't expect that Bart's only currency was the old currency, it seems that Kashgar had some connection with Bart a long time ago, at least before the new currency was issued...", he said thoughtfully.

"Isn't there any record of such an important event in the history books?"

"Yes. ”

Hearing his reply, Ifu also sat silently, and began to think about all kinds of possibilities in his head.

Vopperion glanced at her with some guilt, but Ifu only thought about these possibilities and didn't notice the gaze of the person on the other side.

"My lord, ma'am, here we are. ”

The carriage stopped, and the coachman outside the carriage called.

The two got out of the car and saw that the door of the depot warehouse was closed, and a gentleman in a suit and top hat stood in front of the narrow door next to it.

Vopperion walked up to the man and handed him the two rings, and the gentleman took the rings, pushed the monocle, and quickly returned them to the two men, and made a gesture of please.

There were about 200 seats in the auction hall, and there were about 100 seats at the moment, and the two had to sit in the middle and rear seats.

After that, guests arrived one after another, and when the bell rang at 24 o'clock, the auctioneer began to explain the rules of the auction after a few greetings: "According to the old rules, this auction is a double-time auction in the order of seven 'treasures', three 'collections', and one 'goods'. ”

Hearing the auctioneer say this, Yi Fu glanced at the ring in his hand.

"The mouth on the mask represents willingness and participation in the auction, and if you abandon the auction of this item, you will press your mouth down again, even if there is no bid. Bids and markups are made through the nose on the mask, with a minimum of five pips per markup. ”

No one at the scene raised objections, but Yi Fu didn't quite understand the purpose of this mouth setting?

Or is there any big data that needs to be done on the black market to investigate the preferences of bidders?

The oppressive atmosphere of the whole session, without any prior notice of the lot, was very different from the auctions she had attended.

"So, let's start today's auction. ”

After the auctioneer finished speaking, the lights suddenly dimmed.

I don't know what kind of magic was cast inside, but Ifu's eyes couldn't see the surrounding scene clearly, and the auction table in front of him became the only light in the room.

"The first treasure, Obscure Silver Spring, is based on the magical experiences of Queen Sawara as a child. ”

Although the name bears Silver Spring, there is a red bracelet lying inside the glass cover.

When she woke up again, the silver spring was dyed bright red by the blood of the deer, but it was also because of which the queen was saved, which is why the queen was listed as the holy messenger of Bart during the reign of Queen Sahua, and ordered the jeweler to create a bracelet and a crown, which is one of the bracelets. ”

After explaining the origin, the auctioneer announced the starting price: "Then, the starting price is 3,500 pieces. ”

The bracelet didn't seem to make much of a splash, and the price was 24,005 pieces, which surprised Ifu, who was also the stuff of the ancient queen anyway, and the price was really cheap.

The latter few are almost pigeon's blood red gemstones, royal blue horse eyes, although there is nothing special in the style, but the transaction price is far more than the price of the obscure silver spring, which is sold at the prices of 150,000, 720,000, 3.4 million and 6 million respectively, Yifu was a little bored and drowsy, until he heard the name again.

"The fifth is the brooch of the legendary Queen Sawar: the blood tomb thorns, when the Queen of Sahua and the Marquis of Lautto fell in love but were used, the queen ordered the marquis to be tied to the body with thorns and nailed to the tomb, the marquis ripped off the queen's white gemstone brooch and brought into the tomb when he was executed, until it was unearthed again when people found that the white gem on the brooch had been soaked in the marquis's blood into bright red, hence the name, the starting price of 850,000 pieces. ”

The people present seemed to be a little unsettled, and the sound of the jade nose pressing kept coming from Yi Fu's ears, and the increase in the back became more and more exaggerated.

"Five million once!" "Five and a half million once!"

...

"Ten million once! Ten million twice, ten million three times - deal!"

The final price of the Blood Tomb Thorn was 10 million pieces.

It's also related to Queen Shahua, but it's the same with the obscure Silver Spring...

The next treasure shocked Ifu even more.

"The sixth is from a beautiful story, in the story there is a race called the Blood Clan, the King of the Blood Clan in order to celebrate the return of his long-lost beloved wife, specially searched the world, and finally found the ancient full moon stone and the dry sea pearl, created a ring, and now this one is..."

What the?!

Just when Yi Fu couldn't sit still, the auctioneer said in a joking tone: "Of course it's an imitation, although the story is just a story, our ancient full moon stone and dry sea pearl are genuine, with a starting price of 30 million pieces." ”

Yi Fu looked at the ring on the auction table, it was indeed not the one she had ever wore, and somehow breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

The nobles were bidding, and Ifu was only concerned about the final ownership of the ring, but he didn't notice that Voperion glanced at him.

In the end, the ring was sold for 90 million.

The price is becoming more and more exaggerated, and the next time it will be hundreds of millions.

"It's finally our turn to be the last treasure we've been waiting for, and it's not an ornate brooch, not an elaborate tail ring, but—"

Inside the glass enclosure lies not jewelry, but?

"Legend has it that the star stone that fell from the heavenly realm to the demon world is called the Luoba stone, and the tears of the moon god in the divine realm will turn into the moon pearl when it falls into the world, yes, this is the Luoba stone and the moon pearl that have not undergone any processing, and the starting price is 50 million pieces. ”

Although Ifu revered the moon god, she felt a little unbelievable that such a raw material that only appeared in mythology was directly taken out by an underground auction at this moment.

But Barth's aristocrats and wealthy merchants did not think so.

Because these two items did exist.
