Chapter 25: The Auction
Qin Lao rubbed his hands together and asked expectantly, "Have you memorized this?"
"Well, it's done. ”
It's not unforgettable, but it's about the same, anyway, it's not a word-for-word request, just don't remember the materials such as the medicinal materials used. Qin Lao took two questions casually, and after finding that Ji Nushang did not answer incorrectly, his eyes were full of excited wolf light.
This time I really picked up a treasure.
Originally, I didn't plan to let her come over to practice today, just memorize the contents of the booklet, and now there is still a lot of time, Qin Lao thought for a while, and said, "Since you have finished memorizing, then let's go and see the auction of Wanbaolou tonight." If you have a suitable favorite, remember to start early. ”
Ji Nu paused and asked, "What time?"
The auction of Wan Bao Lou has always been famous, and it is usually held in the afternoon, and only some themed sessions will be scheduled in the evening. I went to the Wanbaolou shop to buy things and came back, Ji Nushang also knew about this Wanbaolou in private, this time according to Qin Lao's words, I think it was a special auction tripod, but what time did I go at night, she really didn't know this.
Qin Lao asked her to eat early in the evening, and the auction time was from seven to nine o'clock. The most important thing is that Xie Jingxian also knows that when the time comes, it will be too late for this kid to rush over.
As soon as he thought of this, Qin Lao suddenly felt a little dissatisfied. What is the relationship between his apprentice and Xie Jingxian, why does that stinky boy like to stick to his apprentice every time, at first he thought it was a good relationship, but now it seems that it is not necessarily the case. The relationship between the two does not look like that of brothers.
Qin Lao couldn't think of a reason for a while, put aside the thoughts in his mind, and after arranging things, he and Ji Nushang both left.
Xie Jingxian came over to find Ji Nushang as usual, thinking that he would go directly to the canteen to solve it, but he met comfort halfway.
An Yi saw the two of them and asked, "Won't you go back to the dormitory to eat tonight?"
Xie Jingxian nodded: "If you go out tonight, you have to eat early, you can also use some in the cafeteria, and you don't have to burn dinner." ”
The two chatted for a while, and finally went to the cafeteria together, but Ji Nushang was a little puzzled, why An Yi appeared here, and just now, she clearly saw someone leaving beside him.
This comfort doesn't seem to be a completely problematic either. Ji Nu collected his thoughts and walked aside.
In fact, it was Lu Qianqian who was by Anyi's side just now. Since the two of them talked in the training room, they have also had some contact in private, and Lu Qianqian wants more about Xie Jingxian's news movements, and she doesn't have much to think about. When she was talking to An Yi just now, Lu Qianqian was restless.
Although she didn't go to Xie Jingxian in the past few days, it didn't mean that she didn't know anything. Xie Jingxian was very sticky to the kid named Lannu, and it didn't look like a brotherhood at all. After all, who would always be coquettish with his brother, even if it was a joke, it would be impossible to bump into eight times out of ten, but now I see Xie Jingxian and Lan Nu like this.
It doesn't matter if she thinks too much, or if she thinks wrong, she is subconsciously a little disgusted when she sees Lan Nu now.
The scale of this auction in Wanbaolou is not large, and only a quarter of the top tripods used in the entire auction hall are full, and most of the rest are accompanied to the auction or want to buy it back first and use it for favors.
The stage was empty, and it wasn't until seven o'clock that a woman stepped out from behind the curtain.
The auctioneer's exclusive clothes with red and gold edges show off the white and tender skin, and on the beautiful face, a pair of fox eyes look at the people in the auction hall with a smile. Skimming off the color, the convex and backward figure also made many people secretly swallow their saliva, and many of the men who shouted to accompany them were also coming for this auctioneer.
"You've been waiting a long time. The woman smiled and gave an uncomplicated salute, "I am the auctioneer of this auction, Yang Xian." ”
The special professional teachers here are all a little arrogant, their red faces are just passing by, their mentality is stable, and the people who accompanied them naturally did not make trouble in order not to disturb this big man. In the huge auction hall, there was no sound except for some whispers.
Yang Xian was satisfied, and the smile on his face became more and more exciting: "Welcome everyone to come to the Wanbaolou auction house." Now, it's up to me to start the auction. Please our first lot. ”
The subordinate dressed in a black waiter's uniform pushed up a small tripod, about two meters high, and the relief of the tripod body looks like a hundred birds and a phoenix, and the whole is like a bronze texture.
This tripod looks a little old, Yang Xian introduced: "This is the Mingfeng bronze tripod, the original owner sent it to auction, the reserve price is 10,000 gold coins, and each increase shall not be less than 100 gold coins, and the auction will begin." ”
"The Mingfeng Bronze Ding is a bit ordinary. Qin Lao lowered his voice and said to Ji Nu, "A good tripod will have an advantage. Later you see. ”
"Seventy-one, eleven thousand!"
"Twenty-eight, fifteen thousand!"
"Sixteen, sixteen thousand!"
This Mingfeng bronze tripod is still ordinary in the end, and the price will stop at 16,000, and it will be meaningless to increase the price further.
Obviously the price is still satisfactory. Yang Xian took the auction hammer and knocked it three times, confirming that the waiter took Ding down after the auction.
"The second lot, Nine Songs. Increases mental power by 3% when refining. The reserve price is 15,000 gold coins, and each increase shall not be less than 500 gold coins. Bidding begins. ”
"Increase mental power by three percent. Ji Nushang asked, "Is this the attribute of Ding?"
Qin Lao replied, "That's right. Spiritual power is the key to controlling fire, and increasing spiritual power can make you more free when refining, but three percent is a little lower, otherwise it would not only be a reserve price of fifteen thousand. ”
Qin Lao is well-informed, and this kind of Ding is naturally not eye-catching. Ji Nushang didn't mean much to want, so he simply closed his eyes and squinted for a while, ready to wait for the last few pieces directly.
This time there were a total of eighteen lots, and Ji Nu estimated that it had been an hour before he opened his eyes. It was already the tenth lot on the stage, and Yang Xian raised his hand to finalize the buyer and asked the waiter to replace the eleventh lot.
"Can such a tripod also play? Wanbaolou can't be mistaken. ”
"Isn't there any mystery in this Dingmo? Wanbaolou's reputation is still trustworthy. ”
It's just that no matter how much you say, it can't hide the fact that everyone is not optimistic about this tripod.
Yang Xian also smiled a little bitterly: "The eleventh lot, the unknown Tieding, was just sent by someone cheaply, and Wanbaolou didn't want to deceive everyone, so it was a fresh picture here." The reserve price is 5,000 gold coins, and there is no minimum requirement for price increase. Bidding begins. ”
The person who sent it only said that it was passed down from the family and that it was exchanged for some money. If he hadn't had something to do with the steward here, how could this Ding be placed at this auction.
Not to mention that the surface of a tripod is still full of rust.
As soon as Yang Xian's words fell, someone shouted to hurry up and replace the next one.
Ji Nu glanced at Na Ding, was silent for a moment, and raised his sign to bid: "No. 22, five thousand gold coins." ”
