Chapter Twenty-Five: Yawen
"Although my colleague bought a pass with you, what he said is not unreasonable, but it is too superficial, and the mystery can only be seen from the huge benefits brought by this beast tide. The Qi family and the Phantom family have a long-standing grudge, the Phantom family has gained a firm foothold in the northwest, and it seems logical that the Qi family wants to suppress it, but on the other hand, the Qi family is also the only one who sees the Phantom family and enjoys the benefits brought by the beast tide. ”
Fang Yuning's elder brother continued: "But this is a golden mountain! Several countries around it have long been covetous, is this the only one in our country that is tempted? Could it be that all the other families and even His Majesty the King can be indifferent to this for many years? Don't you want to think about why you want to watch the Phantom family eat alone in the northwest and make a lot of money?"
After this awakening, everyone vaguely understood something. The turnover of the Phantom Family's annual spirit beast auction is transparent, and outsiders can easily calculate it, basically stable at about 200 million crystal coins, but the Phantom Family has no foundation to do the spirit beast business, and you can earn as much as you sell, 200 million crystal coins are already about to catch up with the annual income of the Oath Kingdom, and the army in Lionheart City has been deprived of money and food for five years, and there has never been a matter of taxes. (1 Crystal Coin = 100 Gold = 10,000 Silver Coins)
"You're saying that the Phantom Family gave them a profit?"
Haiyi's apprentice Huang still couldn't believe it, the embarrassment of the Phantom family being expelled from the oath royal capital back then was well known! That was really not an exaggeration for everyone to shout and beat, and no family including the Fang family spoke for them, and the head of the family at that time committed suicide at home in despair to barely save the family's life. Can the salted fish turn over now that Phantom North has such a grace to cherish them, and still share the soup with them?
"I'm afraid that the incompetent king who drove the phantom family out of the house in the first place still took the biggest share, what an irony!" said the black-faced man without scruples, he was the representative of the Black Blade Empire, and even if the word was spread, no one could do anything to him.
"In this way, Phantom North is so prosperous every year, and at most about fifty percent of the money can be returned to his own pocket?" said the rich businessman who had a somewhat unkind tone before.
Fang Yuning's elder brother was a little surprised by what this rich businessman mentioned, because this was the next line he planned to say, and he was a little curious about how this person could accurately guess how much the Phantom Family's share was, so he couldn't help but get up and clench his fists and ask: "This benevolent brother looks a little faced, and he is swearing to the soldiers of the kingdom, I don't know Your Excellency?"
"My name is Dong Ling, from the Dragon League. Dong Ling seemed to be speaking very casually, but his eyebrows were even more arrogant.
"What, Dong Ling!"
"It turns out that he is Dong Ling!"
... ...
After hearing this name, everyone continued to talk about it, at this time, they were all rich or noble people on the second floor, and they could have such a reaction, obviously this Dong Ling was a great character. Speaking of Dong Ling, I have to mention the Dragon League, he is the deputy leader of the Dragon League, the name of the Dragon League looks very bluffing, but it is not a powerful sect, just a chamber of commerce, but it is the first chamber of commerce in the Tianji Continent, in charge of more than forty percent of the mainland's goods circulation and sales, it is definitely a huge force in the Tianji Continent, but the business area of the Dragon League is the East Continent, I don't know why Dong Ling, the second-in-command of the Dragon League, suddenly had the interest to participate in the auction in the Western Continent.
Fang Bing knocked on the side and said, "It's really strange that the deputy alliance leader of the Eastern Continent Dragon Alliance went to the Western Continent to participate in an auction!"
"What's so strange about this, as long as it's good, no matter where our Dragon Alliance goes, Mr. Fang should go on!
Obviously, the question asked by Dong Ling is what everyone is most concerned about, although everyone guessed seventy-seven eighty-eight, but after all, they had doubts and wanted to get Fang Bing's final answer.
"In fact, if you want to talk about talent and quick thinking, everyone here is not under Xiao Ke, so why do you have to get to the bottom of it, and fall into a place of small and unjust!" Seeing that the eyes of the people around him converged on him again, Fang Bing pretended to be helpless.
Hearing this, the answer in everyone's hearts was already very clear, and this seemingly casual chatter quietly increased the importance of the Phantom Family in the Oath Kingdom in the hearts of the listeners, and even felt the openness of the Phantom Family.
At this time, at the small table where Fang Bing was, a voice suddenly came from the crowd around: "Doesn't that mean that there are only Qi family ......?"
The Minister of Intelligence of the Oath Kingdom, who was sitting next to Fang Bing, shouted after receiving these words: "Only the Qi family was kept in the dark and did not know at all, the ministers of the royal capital all received the red envelopes of the Phantom family, but his family did not receive it, who do you say can help Qi Yuan, how can that old boy not lose!"
After shouting, he didn't feel that it was enough, he first opened his mouth and laughed, so that the people around him unconsciously laughed, and directly recruited Bai, Wu, and Qi, no way The voice of the Minister of Intelligence just now was too loud, and it spread to almost every corner of the hall on the second floor, Bai and the two had to come forward to help Qi Han come out, but the three of them just walked to the Fang Bing table and before they had time to say a few fair words, they were invited back to the box by Miss Etiquette, and the auction began.
The three of them could only leave with an unhappy face and returned to their own boxes, Fang Bing saw the backs of the three of them leaving, and a wave of hatred welled up in his heart, he knew that the murderer of his nephew could not escape the three people in front of him.
"Friends, welcome to Lionheart City, welcome to this spirit beast auction, I'm really sorry, I just made you wait for a long time, but I think it's worth the wait, because the longer you wait, the more spirit beasts I have, the better, let me introduce myself, I'm Phantom Ternan, this year's auction is still me to open, okay, don't say much, the auction will start soon, please our auctioneer Miss Yawen." ”
In the box, Phantom Shiyang watched Phantom Tenan walk out of the stage with a high spirit, and there was a hint of joy, but he didn't expect to faint instantly after listening to two of his opening remarks.
"This opening sentence is too bad, and you don't teach the second uncle well. Phantom Yang complained.
"What to teach, these buyers didn't originally come to see him, and letting him go was just a formality on behalf of the Phantom Family, no matter how good he said, these people won't pay a penny more. Phantom North retorted.
"Yes, it depends on Aunt Yawen! Phantom Shiyang teased.
Huante Bei hurriedly explained: "I didn't see it, the person was invited by your second uncle, and it has nothing to do with me." ”
This auctioneer Yawen has just come to the box, and Phantom Shiyang doesn't like it very much, and always feels that she is deliberately getting close, whether it is to him or to Phantom North, and knowing that this person is newly recruited by Phantom Ternan this year, she thinks she has other plans, but Phantom Shiyang feels that her mother seems to have a good impression of her, which is a little strange.
Illusory Shiyang just wanted to make a bad impression of Yawen in Fang Yuning's mind, but Fang Yuning didn't seem to care at all, watched the woman appear intently, and persuaded: "You two shut up and watch the auction honestly." ”
"Hello everyone, my name is Yawen, I am the auctioneer of this auction, I am honored to meet you, and then I will introduce the first lot of today, seven sixth-order earth-walking dragon cubs, although the earth-walking dragon is not a real dragon, it can also spray small dragon flames, the speed and defense are excellent, it is the best choice for every knight's mount, and the starting price of each sixth-order earth-walking dragon cub is 5000 crystal coins. Yawen's soft and magnetic voice lingered in the ears for a long time under the effect of the sound reinforcement array.
Phantom Shiyang had to admit that there was absolutely no problem with his second uncle finding her to be an auctioneer, he was still a little bad at saying the appearance of this woman, anyway, in his heart, he must not be able to compare to Fang Yuning, but through the window, he saw that most of the men on the first floor looked straight in their eyes, Phantom Shiyang knew that she must be a woman at the level of disaster water, don't ask how the five-year-old Phantom Shiyang knew, it was all Aoki told him.
"Woe to the country and the people, no! It's the city that brings disaster to my second uncle. Phantom Shiyang thought in his heart, but there was nothing he could do, the only person who could deal with Yawen was Fang Yuning, but now that Phantom Shiyang looked at his mother, Fang Yuning was now more serious than anyone else.
"Ten thousand!"
Yawen stood on the stage dignifiedly, and said with a smile: "Mr. No. 687 on the first floor bid 10,000 crystal coins. ”
"Thirty thousand!"
"Mr. No. 179 on the first floor bid 30,000 crystal coins. ”
"Box No. 3, 100,000!" It seemed that he couldn't see the price, and in the No. 3 box, Dong Ling motioned to Miss Manners to raise the price to 100,000 crystal coins.
"The VIP in Box 3 bid 100,000 crystal coins. Yawen's soft voice came out again.
"Box 30, 150,000. "The bidder is the black-faced man of the Black Blade Empire, the reason is naturally needless to say, the prestige of the Black Blade Iron Horse resounded throughout the continent, and the time for the black-faced man to watch the small fish and shrimp jumping has passed, and he motioned to the etiquette lady beside him to ask for the price.
"The VIP in Box 30 bid 150,000 crystal coins. ”
After no one spoke for a while, Yawen dropped two hammers quickly, and before the last hammer drop, her eyebrows flashed, and her tone became a little mischievous: "Is there really no one to ask for a price? The VIPs in the No. 30 box may buy all seven cubs! ”
Dong Ling in the No. 3 box increased the price again, which made the black-faced man very unhappy, but seeing Yawen's graceful figure, the man immediately became obsessed again.
"Ning'er, the auctioneer that the second brother is looking for this time really has two hands, not bad! Yes, you invite her to your house after today's end, you can't slack off others with such hard work!"
He admired Yawen on the stage very much, he was many times stronger than the previous vases, and he admired in his heart.
"But you don't need to ask, your brother will bring her back to you in the evening, do you guess what kind of identity she has besides auctioneer?" Fang Yu Ning said in a daze.
