399 Miracles (11)
The old man's name was Hodgson, and he was the senior appraiser of the Melville family auction, and he was originally not required to secure the item in this small and medium-sized auction. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 But because he hadn't been active for too long, he came to the auction house, hoping to be lucky enough to meet one or two valuable items.
He looked at the featureless brocade box on the table, and he had already begun to sigh in his heart. Looking at the very ordinary material and style of this brocade box, he can already conclude that there is nothing special about the contents of the box.
Thinking of this, he raised his eyes and glanced at the person who had been standing quietly from the beginning to the present. Judging by his behavior, he doesn't look like a person with a background.
So, he shook his head slightly, slowly took the brocade box, and opened it carelessly. Suddenly, a strong light burst out of his calm and waveless eyes, and a pair of smug hands trembled and picked up the seemingly ordinary feathers of the box.
"This, this is ......"
Shen Mengdie looked at the old man's excited expression, and her heart was settled. "Looks like there's a person who knows the goods, but you don't have to be so excited, right?"
In her opinion, there are not tens of thousands of feathers on her wings, but there are still thousands, and she can't understand people who are so excited when they see three feathers.
But how did she know that although angel feathers were precious thousands of years ago, there were a lot of them, but with the passage of time, to this day, only the Holy See of Light still has a few angel feathers, and this kind of healing feather has basically disappeared.
"Angel Feather, really Angel Feather......"
Hodgson raised his hand and stroked the feather, and with careful movements, he accidentally destroyed the pure white feather.
Shen Mengdie watched the old man muttered to himself after being excited for a moment, a touch of puzzlement flashed in his eyes, and he was about to step forward to ask what the appraisal results were and how much they were worth, but the old man shouted and shouted softly outside the door.
"Someone, notify the head of the house quickly."
"Yes." The people who were waiting outside the door quickly left after answering crisply.
"You ......" Hodgson looked up at the still man after easing his excitement.
Shen Mengdie saw that the other party had something to say to herself, but she didn't really want to answer, but took the first step and asked, "Is this thing qualified to be auctioned here by you?" ”
"Yes, of course. But have you ever thought about putting this on the Melville family's annual auction? ”
After confirming that the person in front of him was a woman, Hodgson asked in a deep voice.
Shen Mengdie shook her head lightly when she heard this. "No, just put it up for auction tonight."
"But if that's the case, I'm afraid this thing won't be able to sell for a price."
Hodgson bluntly said what might happen, hoping that the woman in front of him would change her mind.
Of course, Shen Mengdie understands that tonight's small auction is not as good as the annual large-scale auction, but she is not sure that she will stay here at that time, and she can only rest assured if she holds the money in her hands.
If she had the opportunity to wait for the Melville family's annual auction, she would re-enter the auction with Angel Feathers. Who made this kind of rare item in the eyes of the world, not very precious in her opinion.
After thinking clearly, she still shook her head and rejected the other party's kindness. "Thanks for the reminder, but I don't want to wait until that day."
"In that case, then our Melville family auction house will bid directly for the purchase, and after the auction is over at the end of this year, we will still give you the corresponding profit."
Hodgson wanted to use the angel feather gimmick to attract more people to this year's annual auction.
Shen Mengdie heard this, but she politely rejected the other party's kindness. "Needless to say, if you don't think it's appropriate, then I'll leave."
She was not at all worried about the so-called murder of the goods, after all, the Melville family's auction house had a very good reputation. This has never happened. Even if she takes 10,000 steps back and encounters this kind of thing, she believes that she has the absolute ability to protect herself.
Hodgson sighed and shook his head after hearing the words of the man in front of him. Since the other party has insisted on this, he will no longer force it.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
At this moment, there was a sudden knock at the door, followed by the voice of the departing man.
"Lord Hodgson, the head of the house has arrived."
"Is he Hodgson?" Shen Mengdie listened to the soft shouts of the people outside, and her eyes hidden under the cloak couldn't help but darken.
"Invite the master of the house to come in."
After hearing the words, Hodgson quickly stood up and commanded the person outside the door.
"Squeak......
There was a soft sound of the door opening.
"Mr. Hodgson, hurry to find me, is something wrong?"
The person who came had gray-brown curly hair and a shallow smile in his green eyes.
"Head of House...... Hodgson shouted softly, then beckoned to the servant guarding the door, and motioned to close the door.
"Click......"
After the faint sound of the door closing, the three of them were the only ones left in the room.
After confirming that there was no one else around, Hodgson showed the brocade box in his hand to the head of the family to see.
"It's ......"
The head of the family narrowed his eyes slightly, and a trace of uncertainty flashed in his eyes.
He had been invited to the Holy See as a guest, so he had the privilege of seeing the angel feathers treasured by the Holy See.
This feather looks like the same as other feathers, and there is nothing special about it, but when it receives the blessing of magic power, it will emit a faint light, as if it has come to life.
The reason why people in the world worship angel feathers so much is because it is a reflection of God's existence, and people who believe in the God of Light are honored to collect such an angel feather; On the other hand, the angel feather has many uses in other aspects, not only for healing, but also for alchemy and alchemy.
Therefore, under the hype of many aspects, this scarce item can make people crazy.
"Master, this is the angel's feather."
Hodgson, who had been with the Melville family for many years, naturally understood what the head of the family meant by his unfinished words.
The head of the Melville family took the brocade box handed to him by the other party, raised his hand and stroked the feather that was lying still, and brought a little magic to his fingertips.
The moment his fingertips touched the feathers, the white feathers, which were originally featureless, slowly rose from the box, emitting a faint white light.
Seeing this, the head of the Melville family lightly scratched a wound on his palm. Suddenly, the feathers that emitted a faint white light spontaneously spun, and a little white light emanated from it, wrapping the wound in his palm.
The white light dissipated, and there was still a little wound in the palm of the hand. (To be continued.) )
