Chapter 52: The Auction Begins

Lin Xin and Bai Kai didn't talk for long, when a knock on the door interrupted Lin Xin and Bai Kai's conversation. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Lin Xin looked down through the window, and the seats in the auction hall below were basically full now, knowing that the auction was about to start.

"Come in." Lin Xindao.

The door opened, and a seventeen or eighteen-year-old, slim girl in light green walked in.

"Childe, the auction is about to start, and I am responsible for explaining some of the rules of the auction and the relevant details of the items to Childe." The woman in green said in a pleasant voice.

"Oh, in that case, let's introduce it first." Lin Xin's eyes flashed slightly, and he returned as if he had realized something.

"Yes, Childe, this auction is slightly changed from the past, but it is roughly the same as before, the change is that before the auction, the guests in the VIP room, are eligible to preview the top ten items that will be auctioned, and only look at the previous little change, of course, except for the final finale item, during the auction, if Childe fancy any item, just through the abacus-like button next to the seat, after dialing the number to be reported, press the red button next to it, The price you want will be displayed automatically, which is simple and easy to operate. As she spoke, the woman pointed to the abacus-like button next to her.

Lin Xin raised his eyes and saw that not far from him was within reach, and a small and exquisitely crafted abacus was there. Lin Xin paid attention to it at the beginning, but he didn't look at it carefully, he thought it was just for decoration, but he didn't expect it to have this kind of function, it seems that the Tongyong Chamber of Commerce is really thoughtful, so that a lot of trouble can be avoided.

At this time, the girl took out a note from a secret compartment next to her and handed it to Lin Xin.

"Childe, these are the top ten items that are about to start the auction, and when the ninth auction is finished, there will be another ten items in this cassette." The woman in green explained.

Lin Xin picked it up and took a look, the ten items on it that were about to start shooting, each of which had some detailed descriptions below, including rouge, gems and the like, these things were not owned by Chu Yue, but brought back from other countries, because the chamber of commerce has a huge industry and often shuttles between countries, and the things brought back are quite popular with the nobles of the capital, but after Lin Xin saw it, he suddenly lost interest.

Extremely bored, he opened his consciousness and shrouded several nearby boxes to see if there was any other news. The two people in one of the boxes seemed to be plotting something important, but the people inside used code words when they spoke, and Lin Xin didn't know what they were talking about, but the content was all written down, and when the time came, ask Xinyun and might find out something.

And when Lin Xin was bored, there was a sudden bang on the stage, lowering the originally noisy sound, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at the stage.

The curtain on the stage was pulled down, and an old man wearing a silver brocade robe, with a fat figure revealing his figure, a pile of meat, like a mountain-like body, at this moment his face was full of smiles and said loudly: "Hehe, it seems that the people who came to the auction are basically here, today's auction on the first day of this firm will be presided over by me, my surname is Qi, look at my appearance, I think many people should know me, and there should be no objection to presiding over this auction below." ”

"Master Qi's appreciation ability is obvious to everyone, how can you not be at ease."

"That's right, we all believe in Master Qi's eyesight, and the master is qualified to preside."

As soon as the fat old man finished speaking, he immediately attracted the echo of many people. It seems that this Master Qi is really a famous figure.

"Okay, you are all so supportive, I don't talk nonsense, waste everyone's time, the auction starts now, the first is a batch of rouge, hehe, although many of you are big men, you may not like this very much, but these are the best goods brought back from the territory of Lanqiang, you are also very good to use to please your wife or other women, not only has the effect of beauty and beauty, the fragrance is also long-lasting and good, it is a rare top grade, I dare to guarantee that it is not sold in the capital at present, This batch is definitely the first batch, this kind of fashion leading, after you give it to your wife, you will definitely love it. The base price of each box is one hundred taels, and the price increase is arbitrary. The fat man said with a slight smile, eloquent and clever, and in a few words, he aroused everyone's desire to buy.

"One hundred and fifty taels"

"One hundred and sixty taels"

...

"Three hundred taels"

In the end, it was taken down by a person dressed as an outsider named for two hundred taels.

Each piece fetched a very high price.

Although Lin Xin is not interested in these, he also has a new understanding of these rich people, and it is really a lot of money, these three hundred taels of silver, in an ordinary family, are enough to spend a lifetime, here it is just the price of a rouge.

Soon the ten items were photographed, and the second ten items were some weapons and pills and the like, which naturally caused some martial arts people to participate in the competition, the pills can improve the realm of martial artists, which is something that every martial artist dreams of, and a weapon in hand has greatly strengthened his own combat ability, but Lin Xin has no intention of making a move, these are not of much use to him at present.

In this way, as time went by, the auction items gradually became more than half, and the ones behind became more and more valuable, but Lin Xin was not what Lin Xin needed, and none of them were interested, so he just watched others compete, and Lin Xin drank tea unhurriedly.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Normally, when the auction starts, no one will come to disturb it, Lin Xin's eyes flashed, and he motioned for Bai Kai to open the door.

After Bai Kai went over and opened it, a little guy walked in respectfully, it was the one who led Lin Xin in before.

"Lin Gongzi, just now a guest left this note, let me pass it on to you, do you need to read it. The little guy took out the note and asked Lin Xindao with an unnatural expression.

"Oh, who left it, did you leave a name or something?" Lin Xin thought about it for a moment, and asked with a smile.

"No, but the other party is a beautiful woman, she said that there is something important to tell Childe, as for the rest, I don't say much, because I don't know who the other party is, so I don't dare to rush her over, the other party had to leave a note, saying that Childe read the above things and understood." The little guy replied.

"Well, bring it up." Lin Xin said.

Bai Kai stepped forward smartly, took the note, and handed it to Lin Xin.

Lin Xin opened the note and quickly read the content on it. But after reading it, my eyes flickered a few times. After pondering for a while, he turned to Bai Kai and said: "I have something to go out to deal with, I may go back later, you continue to watch the auction here first, and when the auction is over, you will go back to the Hou Mansion by yourself, so you don't have to wait for me, you will go back to the Hou Mansion by yourself when the time comes." ”

"Yes, Childe." Bai Kai didn't ask much about Lin Xin's instructions.
