Chapter 1549: The Auction Begins
I have to say that due to the upcoming large-scale auction for the 35th anniversary of the cornucopia, the surrounding merchants, especially the inns, are also sitting on the ground, and the house prices and food prices are nearly ten times more expensive than usual!
But Rao is like this, and the rich people from all over the world who come to stay are still in an endless stream.
The inn where Thunder Blade lives can only be regarded as a medium-sized inn near the cornucopia, but the consumption is still surprisingly expensive. And the rich and rich, especially those who are big, basically live in the luxurious private suites specially designed in the cornucopia.
Thunderblade has always been low-key, and he has experienced any kind of environment, so he is not picky about accommodation. But the accommodation conditions of the inn that night still made Thunder Blade extremely uncomfortable, there was not even a toilet, and there was no hot water in the room, this kind of accommodation conditions for wooden beds, it actually cost a hundred taels of silver a night, and Thunder Blade felt that these people could go and rob money.
The next day, when Thunder Blade was eating at the inn, he heard someone in the inn discussing, saying that he was going to participate in the auction and sell admission tickets, ten taels of silver per person, to prevent unrelated people from getting into the troubled waters and fishing.
Thunderblade had no choice but to go to the cornucopia auction house with a well-dressed young man.
On the way, the young man asked, "Brother Tai, are you a foreigner?" What are you coming to Fire City for this auction this time? ”
Of course, Thunderblade won't tell the truth: "Oh, I'm just here to see, I don't have any money on me, hehe, I don't dare to buy anything." ”
When the young man heard this, he raised his head, patted the brocade clothes on his body, and said proudly: "That's the person who goes in and out of the cornucopia, isn't that a rich merchant and arist?" If you don't have the money to get in, you can only stare dryly. Brother Tai, my name is Chen Zichong, I am the second son of the master of Yunhaimen in Bermuda City, hehe, I came this time for the "Thunder Palm" worth three million taels of silver, if you don't have money, follow me, I will take you to a long time. ”
When Thunderblade heard this, he just smiled and didn't speak.
Chen Zichong was a proud rich kid, and when he saw Lei Jian dressed in a simple and unpretentious manner, he thought that Lei Jian was a poor disciple, so he didn't take it to heart.
The two bought admission tickets, and Chen Zichong was arrogant and wanted to invite Thunder Blade, but Thunder Blade did not agree.
When he came out, Chen Zichong introduced: "This cornucopia auction hall is also divided into ordinary venues, VIP venues and supreme fields, and the prices of the treasures auctioned in each venue are different. ”
Thunderblade asked, "What's the difference?" ”
Chen Zichong said proudly: "It's very simple, every qiē looks at the silver." For example, the guaranteed price of the treasure auctioned in the ordinary field is 1,000 taels of silver, and this kind of garbage goods will be hundreds of thousands of taels of silver at the end of the auction; And the things in the VIP field, the cheapest baby, the starting price is 100,000 taels, there are many rich people here, the competition is big, you can casually tens of millions of taels of silver, and some even pay no attention to tens of millions of taels of silver for a while, this is the magic of the auction house. ”
"Ahem, as for the Supreme Field, it was a venue that was only open when there were god-level treasures, and the things auctioned there were all rare treasures, and so far the cornucopia has been opened sixteen times in the Supreme Field, among them, the lowest starting price is 12 million taels of silver...... Tsk, the people in the Supreme Field are all big shots, and the things in them are not something that a small person like you can worry about. ”
Thunder Blade suddenly said, "Then this cornucopia 35th anniversary, will the Supreme Field be opened?" ”
Chen Zichong said: "I haven't received any news at present, this is not a cornucopia that will be opened if it wants to open a house, it depends on whether there are suitable rare treasures flowing into the market, and when the Supreme Field will open is completely decided when the baby comes." ”
While speaking, the two had returned to the inn, Chen Zichong insisted on inviting Lei Blade to dinner, but Thunder Blade couldn't refuse, and the two ate big fish and meat at the inn.
"I sue you, I went out this time with more than 4 million taels of silver, and the starting price of "Running Thunder Palm" is 150,000 taels of silver. Hehe, Brother Thunderblade, I'll open your eyes the day after tomorrow, I guess you've never seen so much silver in your life, right? If you save money, it's enough for you to spend a few lifetimes. ”
Thunderblade was speechless, just laughing, and didn't speak.
When he went out, plus the silver that Chu Yunlong gave him, he also calculated that the spoils of his many killings and goods were totaling 41,250,000 taels of silver, and there were more than 10,000 Qi Gathering Pills.
originally thought that there was a lot of money, but after listening to Chen Zichong's "high-minded talk", Lei Jian felt that he was very "poor". If you enter the Supreme Field, your own silver is not enough for those big people to stuff their teeth, right?
On the third day in the blink of an eye, the cornucopia auction house was opened, and the ordinary and VIP venues were opened at the same time, and countless mermaids rushed in and talked about it. These people, there are wealthy businessmen and aristocrats, but most of them are cultivators of some sects, after all, the most auctioned at the auction are weapons, cultivation cheats, elixirs, etc., these things often have a great attraction to cultivators.
In the midst of the crowd, Lei Jian and Chen Zichong squeezed into the VIP venue.
It is a place with a large space, and in the middle is a huge round platform that is about a meter higher than the height of the surrounding seats, and this is the rostrum.
Around the rostrum, there are rows of seats spread outward, Lei Jian glanced at it, and roughly estimated, there are at least more than 2,000 seats, each seat has a number and a corresponding sign, as long as there is a ticket, you can raise a sign to make an offer, participate in the auction.
And at the nearest rostrum, there are three rows of nearly 200 luxuriously decorated seats, this is the VIP seat, and the admission ticket to the VIP seat costs 100 taels of silver.
Numbered necklace of Thunder Blade and Chen Zichong, Chen Zichong No. 1102, Thunder Blade No. 1101.
After all the people entered, the whole audience boiled, and the voices of people were loud, even if they were talking closely, it was difficult to hear clearly.
Boom! Boom!
After a while, the bell in the venue was remembered, and then, the audience gradually quieted down, and everyone sat back in their seats, their eyes focused on the rostrum.
Behind the rostrum, a door opened, and then a blonde beauty with a ******** figure and a height of 1.7 meters walked out wearing a purple cheongsam-like costume.
"Oh!"
This is a Peugeot's big beauty, as soon as she appeared, the audience suddenly heard exclamations and ear-to-ear voices.
Lei Jian heard that many male compatriots were swallowing saliva.
"Damn, it's all a bunch of perverts!"
Thunder Blade scolded those people in his heart, and then swallowed hard.
