Chapter 14: Reverence
"That sounds like an easter egg. Jiu Wentian smiled and said, "I don't know who will be interested in this thing?"
Cao Tianyun nodded and said thoughtfully: "Rhodes can be said to be the idol of many people, and the special teaching teachers will also use Rhodes's adventurous spirit to inspire children." For example, people like me and Big Brother Gu's generation should have a yearning for Rhodes. ”
Jiu Wentian suddenly took a long breath of enlightenment and asked in a low voice, "Is this why you want to go to the believer?"
"Well, I happened to be exposed to the things of believers at that time. Cao Tianyun said embarrassedly.
As they spoke, the easter egg had soared to a sky-high price of 1 million. Rhodes is known to everyone, and his story is still being sung today, and if there is something Rhodes brought back from the Lost Continent in his hand, it would be very proud.
This easter egg is simply an artifact when showing off, so under the speculation of the ancient text, the minimum of this thing will not be less than five million.
After a million, few people follow the price increase, and their pockets are not enough to hold this thing. Then, Wei Shen's side increased the price to 1.5 million, he knew that there was no hope, but he had to give it a try, if it was done, if it was given to Long Lao, then he himself would be promoted and make a fortune.
But then a man dressed in black pushed open the window of the private room and said, "I'll give three million." ”
The man in black glanced at Jiu Wentian's place, Gu Zhengwen was stunned for a moment, and then stared at the man and instantly made the man in black retract his head. The man in black just now was the focus of the audience, and it was impossible for Jiu Wentian not to notice it, but it was this black dress that reminded Jiu Wentian of the gang that assassinated Jiang Fuqing ten years ago. Now he knew that the gang was called the Black Wind Gate.
Jiu Wentian opened his mouth and asked, "Brother Gu, are those people looking here to see you?"
"That's right," Gu Zhengwen said, "It seems that this kid doesn't know much about me, if they knew me before, they wouldn't dare to look at me like this." ”
Cao Tianyun glanced at the private room and found that there was no one there, so he smiled and said, "Oh? It seems that Big Brother Gu's eyes are still lethal." ”
"That's not what it means, it's mainly that there are rules in the Black Wind Gate. Gu Zhengwen whispered mysteriously: "Because aiming requires eyes, and the Black Wind Gate has many hidden weapons, if the small one looks directly at the big one, it means to aim." Where I used to be, there weren't many people who could look at me squarely, and although I wasn't there anymore, the things in their bones couldn't change. ”
Jiu Wentian suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Gu, you said that you came back from Shenzhou, will they know?"
Gu Zhengwen shook his head and said helplessly: "I don't know, but they have never troubled me, so I don't want to go to their business, just think of it as entering the water and not violating the river." ”
The woman on the Pope's side also opened the window and said, "I'll give four million." ”
No one dared to raise the price this time, or if it weren't for Cang Mingjie's face here, they would have started to compete a long time ago. The name of the pope is not big, but it is not small enough to make this group of people bow down. But Tie Yi doesn't seem to want to sell this face, this price is enough for the old fox Cang Mingjie to earn in Tie Yi's opinion.
A man in armor standing on the second floor said, "I'll give four and a half million." ”
The host's smiling face froze suddenly, he had expected this thing to be very popular, but he didn't expect it to make Tie Yi's eyes red. This thing may sell for a higher price, but if the Iron Cloak messes around here, then it may stop at four and a half million.
Cang Mingjie scolded secretly behind the curtain, but the middle-aged man said: "Boss Cang, this price is not a loss, Tie Yi also understands the rules, and Boss Cang's business will get better and better in the future." ”
"It's all the iron guards of the governor, and now it's okay, the tiger is gone, and the lion is gone. This group of people hiding in the armor is just like that, that parasite, digging into their hearts......" Cang Mingjie said helplessly.
And just as Cang Mingjie was about to put down the curtain, he heard a voice, "Ten million." ”
Cang Mingjie's heart was pounding at that time, he didn't expect that someone would dare to raise the price, could it be another iron suit? But I have never heard of the news of the discord within the iron coat, is it possible......
However, it is not as Cang Mingjie thought, it is not the iron clothes that increase the price, but the collectors. A finger stretched out in the private room, and even he himself was excited after the host shouted 10 million. I saw the host say loudly: "This adult has increased the price to 10 million! Is there anything else you want to increase?"
I saw that the iron coat on the second floor looked at the private room where he stretched out his fingers, and then said: "I don't know you before, dare to ask why you do this?"
"Since I don't know you, why should I sell your face. It was a woman's voice that spoke, which also made the people in the room boil, they had never seen this person who was called a collector, and she never showed her face and never spoke, she only showed her fingers in the cold.
There may still be people in the arena who are excited, because this is the first time that the iron coat has been choked, but this collector seems to have a good life. Tie Yi didn't speak, and the collector spoke again: "As the little friend just said, auctions have always been won by the highest price, what did I do? It's just a price increase, if the adults really like this treasure, take it yourself." ”
Jiu Wentian suddenly felt embarrassed, and couldn't help complaining in his heart, you said that you will scare others, what do you have to do with me, now it's okay, what if the iron clothes can't bully you bully me, it's really this kind of person who has no public morality.
I saw that this iron-clad smiled, and he didn't look at Jiu Wentian, but said: "In this case, the baby is still given to the girl, but the girl is inevitably a little dangerous when she is alone, and I am really ashamed that I can't protect the girl here." ”
"Needless to say, if you want to take my life, just come. The collector closed the window and stopped talking.
This also shocked Jiu Wentian, he thought about Gu Zhengwen and asked, "Brother Gu, what kind of character dares to talk to Tie Yi like this?"
"If you want me to say, fearless, even the pope and the governor have a sense of reverence for each other, and this little woman dares to say such things. Gu Zhengwen said indifferently: "As the saying goes, barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes, and people who are tired are not afraid of living people." However, there is another possibility, what she is afraid of is not the iron suit, but the existence that is more powerful than the iron suit. ”
As the saying goes, what you are afraid of, you stop at. Only when your heart is as vast as the world can your achievements cover the long river of history.
"Ten million times!"
"Ten million twice!"
"Ten million three times! Thank you for taking this Rhodes egg for 10 million!" the host bowed deeply and continued, "Please come backstage and take your belongings." ”
After the end, Jiu Wentian walked out of the door of the hideout, and the sky outside was getting dark, and Jiu Wentian was just about to say to Cao Tianyun that he was interrupted by someone else, and that person was the staff officer with Wei Shen. The staff officer said to Jiu Wentian: "Please stay for the long horse, Lord Wei has prepared a gift for the long horse." ”
As he was talking, Wei Shen came over with a wooden box, Wei Shen presented the wooden box with both hands and said, "Jiu Ma , these are those two Huishen Pills, please also accept Jiu Fu Ma with a smile." ”
"Why is Lord Wei so polite?" Jiu Wentian said with some shock, Wei Shen before entering the Tibetan object was not this attitude at all, he felt that Wei Shen seemed to be cheating.
Even Cao Tianyun couldn't stand it anymore, and Cao Tianyun also excused himself: "Lord Wei doesn't have to worry about this matter, we can solve it." ”
Wei Shen's hand still didn't let go, but then begged: "Presumably this is Lord Cao, two adults, no matter what, please accept this small gift, it can be regarded as a contribution I have made for the two of you." ”
Jiu Wentian took the wooden box a little confused, and then said: "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, thank you Lord Wei." ”
Wei Shen got up at this time, then pointed to his red-skinned carriage and said, "My lord, why don't you take my car back." ”
"It doesn't have to be, we'll just walk back. Jiu Wentian felt that this Wei Shen was too enthusiastic, and it was not the Wei Shen he knew at all, what was going on that made his attitude take a big turn.
"In this case, the villain is not good to make many requests, and I hope that the two adults will be careful on the road. After Wei Shen finished speaking, he sat in the carriage, and the guards drove away in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.
Gu Zhengwen also scratched the back of his head, and asked suspiciously: "What's wrong with this person, it seems to be tamed by something, Wentian, what did you give him to eat?"
"How is it possible, if I had that kind of thing, I would have been fighting for hegemony a long time ago. Jiu Wentian complained.
At this time, a woman came out of the door, dressed in a red coat, with long hair falling on her shoulders, and her weak body exuded a powerful aura at this time. The noble temperament made Jiu Wentian can't believe that this is a woman exuding, to say that this world is definitely a male society, and the status of women is indeed relatively low, but this woman makes all the men present feel inferior because of this.
Needless to say, this woman must be the collector, with a rusty knife and an easter egg in her hand, which is the size of a palm, but she seems to want to show it. And just she's alone, even if there are no greedy people in this world, there will be some outlaws, it's hard to imagine how this person dares to be so swaggering?
