Chapter 61 The Auction Continued
"The third item, an antique scabbard."
"Huh!"
The silk cloth was lifted, and what appeared in front of everyone was a gray and simple scabbard, dilapidated and ancient, dull and inconspicuous.
"What are you doing, why are you putting everything up for auction?"
"Lao Zheng, tell us quickly, what is the mystery in this broken scabbard." Everyone looked around, but they couldn't see the reason, so they naturally shouted and coaxed, and wanted to give a solemn explanation.
Stretched out his hand to pick up the broken scabbard, and said solemnly and unhurriedly: "This scabbard is integrated, seamless, and its craftsmanship has never been seen, it should be an antiquity left by the predecessors." And the material is also very special, knives and axes can not leave a trace on it, as for whether there is another mystery, just wait for the destined people to discover themselves! ”
"What can I do with this thing?"
"Maybe some collectors will pay to buy it back, but it is estimated that it is not worth much money, so keep it for collection!"
"The City Lord's Mansion is too much, and this thing is also taken out to cheat money? What is called a destined person, cut! ”
In the private room, Ye Chu's eyes suddenly flashed, his palm pressed tightly against the rusty sword at his waist, and his eyes stared at the worn-out scabbard on the auction table without blinking.
This rusty sword seems to have some connection with the scabbard on the stage, since the appearance of this scabbard, there has been an inexplicable gravitational force, attracting the rusty sword on Ye Chu's waist, if the estimate is correct, the two should be one, but they are scattered in the two places for various reasons.
"Now the bidding begins, the starting price is 5,000 taels of gold, and the price increase shall not be less than 1,000 taels each time." Zheng Zheng's face remained unchanged, and he always smiled, but raised his voice slightly.
The whole auction was silent.
"Six thousand taels!" A middle-aged man with a big belly held up a sign and shouted loudly. A gorgeous golden robe was tightly draped over his body. This person somehow got into the relationship of the city lord's mansion, made some money, and was one of the few outbreaks in Wuyuan City, for fear that others would look down on him, he liked to buy some strange old objects to put at home, and it was also said to be handed down from his ancestors.
Zheng Zheng smiled at him, this fat man rubbed his hands again and again, he shot this time completely to relieve the siege of Zheng Da Butler, the scabbard or something, he didn't care at all, as long as he left a good impression on Zheng Da Butler, just a few thousand taels of gold, he could earn it back when he turned his head.
In the private room, Ye Chu held the hilt of the sword and did not rush to bid.
It was quiet, but there was no one bidding.
Zheng Zheng is also the first time to auction, facing this scene that is completely opposite to the previous hot bidding, he doesn't know what to do, but he just said dryly: "Six thousand taels, is there anyone who offers a higher price?" ”
The field was still quiet, and some warriors didn't even dare to move, for fear of being misunderstood as a bid, and spending a lot of money to buy a tattered back.
Ye Chu groaned and raised the sign in his hand, "Seven thousand taels!" ”
"Good! Someone has increased the price, seven thousand taels, who else? Maybe you're the one who is destined, and you can't miss the opportunity! Zheng Zheng's expression was relieved, and his brain became active and incited.
"Eight thousand taels."
Frowning, Ye Chu heard this voice, it was Wei Tianjie in the private room next door.
Zheng Zheng also frowned, the auctioneer was just a cameo with him, and his main business was still the chief butler of the City Lord's Mansion. Who is in each private room, he knows very well in his heart, only a few thousand taels of gold, and the city lord and Miss Zhanrou have taken care of the big people who should pay special attention, he naturally knows clearly, this kid of the Wei family is too capable of adding chaos!
"Nine thousand taels!" Ye Chu did not hesitate to keep up with the bid. "Ten thousand taels!" Wei Tianjie pursed his lips disdainfully, and scolded in his heart, who made you die so well that Wei Tianxiu, the opponent of this young master, is a friend, money, this young master has, then you deserve to be unlucky.
In the private room, hearing Wei Tianjie's bidding voice, Wei Tianxiu also frowned. And Ye Chu raised the price to 11,000 taels without changing his face.
"Twenty thousand taels!" Wei Tianjie raised the price again and directly raised the price. This bit of gold is nothing to him, the next heir to the head of the Wei family. He just wanted to use guò this way of suppressing the people around Wei Tianxiu, and warned Wei Tianxiu not to try to compete with him for the inheritance of the head of the family, and Ye Chu, who was unlucky, once again lay down.
The solemn cold sweat came down, and his heart kept beating wildly, this kid of the Wei family was going to kill him, if it wasn't for the wrong time, he couldn't wait to pry open the kid's chest to take a good look, whether he had a bear heart and leopard gall.
In the field, everyone also felt very strange, a broken scabbard can also be worth this price? Could it be that there is really some mystery in it? However, knowing the characters in the two private rooms, they were calm, one was a child of the family, and his heart was arrogant. A young man not only cultivates well, but also sits in a private room of the mercenary union, which must have a lot to do with the mercenary union. The two of them are both young and vigorous, and in order to earn a breath, they just fight for money, and it is already good that they do not fight!
"Hey! It's two panicked masters who burn a lot of money. Someone said with obvious envy.
"Why is this kid of the Wei family always fighting against the mercenary union, and he can still not suffer!"
"It's not because he has a good mother! Oh, I can't tell! "There is one who knows the inside story, sighed a few words, and immediately kept silent!
"Twenty-five thousand taels!" Ye Chu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly added five thousand taels.
"Thirty thousand taels!" Wei Tianjie did not show weakness.
The corners of Ye Chu's mouth hooked up with a somewhat meaningful smile, "Fifty thousand taels!" ”
"Eighty thousand taels!" Wei Tianjie snorted coldly, more than money? Who's afraid of whom!
Ye Chu's face changed slightly, she thought that no one would follow the bidding for this shabby scabbard, and it was easy to get it, if she didn't know the price now but someone was deliberately raising the bar, she Ye Chu would be a fool! Money, Ye Chu is not lacking, but this Wei Tianjie is not sincere in wanting to buy things at all, but is clearly coming for her, it is really uncle can bear it, and aunt can't bear it!
Holding up the sign, Ye Chu pulled the corners of his mouth, evoked a touch of ruthlessness, and said coldly: "One hundred thousand taels!" ”
"Shhh
Everyone gasped, 100,000 taels of gold, this is not a small amount, just to buy this broken scabbard? Even the fighting spirit is not such a fighting method! This doesn't treat money as money at all, everyone in the field is envious and jealous in their hearts, and their feelings are complicated!
"Although 100,000 taels of gold is nothing, they can only buy a broken scabbard to go back, and it is enough for them to feel distressed for a while!" Wei Tianjie sat on the chair, with a teacup under his hand, and the expression on his face seemed to be smiling, "If it weren't for that little girl's youthful vigor, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy to raise this price, young and ignorant!" Be friends with that guy, even if you're unlucky! ”
"One hundred thousand two times, one hundred thousand two times, one hundred thousand two three times, deal, congratulations to this distinguished guest!" Zheng Zheng let out a long breath, and his tone was slightly hurried. Even so, I don't know if this noble guest has a pimple in his heart, and his solemn heart is not big, so he silently decided in his heart to give the Wei family a good look!
After a while, there was a soft knock on the door, and a warrior walked in with a tray and a worn scabbard.
"Tsk, this thing is worth 100,000 taels!" Zhan Hongyi glanced at it, and he was no longer interested, and turned his head to continue attacking the food on the table.
Wei Tianxiu took out a golden ticket of 100,000 taels and put it in front of Ye Chu.
Ye Chu looked at Wei Tianxiu, who was expressionless, sighed for a moment, and said, "Only this once!" ”
Wei Tianxiu was quite satisfied that Ye Chu could understand what he meant, and nodded indifferently.
Ye Chu smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and gently pushed the golden ticket back, "Money, I don't lack it." Friends, but I don't have much. You asked me to let him go this time, I agreed, this is the affection between friends, but the money is not necessary, I am willing to pay this money! ”
Wei Tianxiu didn't shirk either, and simply picked up the golden ticket with a neat backhand.
Ye Chu took out a small bag full of demon cores from his arms, handed it to the martial artist, took the scabbard from the other party's hand, and played with it in his hand.
This warrior took the bag and was slightly stunned, and paid the bill with the magic core? There is indeed a ratio between this magic core and gold, but in fact, no one uses the magic core as gold, and the magic core is worth much more than gold. This girl is not very old, but she is very generous, she must be either rich or expensive, his face is full of smiles, and he bows down.
After the scabbard was in his hands, the rusty sword in Ye Chu's right hand really quieted down, Ye Chu gently tapped the table, the rusty sword and the scabbard, the two were really one.
The killing sword intent in this rusty sword used to be of great help to Ye Chu, and now he has encountered the scabbard of this rusty sword, although he doesn't know what the mystery is, but no matter what the cost is, Ye Chu will not let go.
"The fourth item is ......"
Ye Chu played with the scabbard, and seemed to be a little uninterested in the auction items after him, but he listened to the rounds of auction bidding dispensably, and most of his mind was focused on this scabbard, although he couldn't see any subtleties, but there was a strange sense of satisfaction in his heart.
The sun was setting in the west, and it was almost evening, and the auction was truly the first to kick off.
"The last auction item, a spirit sealing scroll!" With a flick of his wrist, he pulled open the thick red cloth, and a scroll was placed in the middle of the auction table, and the scroll was shining.
"Oh my God! It's the Spirit Scroll! ”
"It's really a spirit sealing scroll, a big deal, a big deal!"
"Boom!" In the entire auction room, the atmosphere instantly became enthusiastic, and everyone went crazy, and the noise almost broke through the roof.
"Spirit Scroll?" What is this? Hearing a new noun again, Ye Chu's face was full of begging for an explanation, and he looked at Zhan Hongyi pitifully.
