Chapter 155: The Wise Queen

"Ladies and gentlemen, although the story of the Siren Princess is overwhelming, our auction must continue to ......," said Count Carreno, "the next lot, and the most valuable thing in this auction, is this 'movie'!" ”

There was a commotion in the auction hall, and all the nobles were a little puzzled.

"Count Carreno, it's a fantastic experience, but how is it auctioned? Can we take a story of nothingness for ourselves? Or take that stone home? ”

Some aristocrats questioned that they did not feel that a stone was of much value, although it was indeed magical.

"Oh, don't be impatient, I didn't make it clear, what my employer sells, is the right to screen the movie, and it will be screened as it is today, just like magic and drama, you can make money by selling tickets, I believe that this wonderful story is enough to attract most people in the royal capital to watch."

When Count Carreno introduced him, he wanted to be a part of the bidding because he could feel that this thing could cause a rush! It's a whole new form of entertainment! From the reaction of many nobles, it can be predicted that it is not only profitable? It's almost a lot of money!

It's just that Count Carreno is very strange that he doesn't show it himself for what Charity does, or simply hand it over to him......

After listening to Count Carreno's explanation, the nobles had a lot of discussions, of course, they had excellent business acumen and could see the commercial value in it, while those official families who focused on politics did not agree with it, what is this thing? You can't eat, you can't wear it, it's just a pastime, it's just a rock!

"Shit! Count Carreno, are you sure you want to sell a stone? If you want to make money, you want to go crazy! ”

Some of the nobles shouted that they thought it was Count Carreno who was bluffing them.

"Gentlemen, this is a quality auction. Your words are before most of the nobles in the royal capital, so please pay attention to the wording, especially today with Her Majesty the Queen, do you want to leave a bad impression? ”

The Count of Carreno stopped the rude nobles, some of whom were power-centered, others military attachΓ©s. Of course, I don't understand the mood of 'movie'.

"I'm not pressuring you to bid, if you're not interested, please keep quiet, but unfortunately my employer doesn't seem to be thinking about my family, otherwise we would have gotten the right to the screening." Count Carreno said without humility or arrogance, "Then, it will be auctioned next, with a reserve price of 500,000 yuan, and each increase in price is not less than 10,000!" ”

"Fifty-five!"

The Blue Rose family is the richest man in the kingdom of men. Of course, the Marquis has his unique business vision, and of course he knows how much profit this new type of industry can bring, and there are no less than a million people in the royal capital alone, among which at least one-fifth are willing to watch or can afford to spend money to watch, and many of them like this story and watch it repeatedly.

It was among the young aristocrats. They will surely follow this trend, and look at the ladies here today. They will definitely tell their relatives and friends about this experience, and it is about to make quite a splash.

Assuming that the ticket is only set at ten gold coins, the income of the royal capital alone can reach more than two million, and there is no additional cost. And there are dozens of prosperous cities in the human kingdom, and the profits in them are simply incalculable.

The Marquis of Blue Rose first considered time, and the largest place in the royal capital should be regarded as the Colosseum. It can sit down for 5,000 people, and it takes at least one day to rest for a screening, and it takes two months to tap the market of the royal capital.

The reason why the price was only 550,000 was because the Marquis of Blue Rose didn't want people to think that he took it too seriously, and those guys who had always been jealous of his family would definitely raise the price.

"Count Carreno. May I ask about this ...... of the films screened How many stones are there? The Marquis of Blue Rose asked in the box.

"Ten pieces, the quality is the same, please rest assured."

The Duke of Snape in the other box also had this intention, and offered: "Six hundred and fifty thousand gold coins." ”

"Okay, Master Snephu bid 650,000 gold coins, is there anything higher?"

Count Carreno's heart was pounding, a stone that barely cost can be exchanged for 650,000 gold coins! Is there a more lucrative business than that? He was thinking that the higher the price, the better, because the more he would take a rake, and the more he auctioned it, the more he would make up for his losses.

"I'm sorry, I'll pay 800,000."

Duke Cassadine directly raised the price by 150,000, his family is not business-oriented, but he can also guess that it is profitable when he sees the attitude of the Marquis of Blue Rose. Even if he doesn't grab it, he can disgust his opponent.

Sure enough, even Duke Snape whispered; "Shameless."

The Marquis of Blue Rose was rich and didn't particularly care, and said, "Lord Duke, do you also like this story?" In order to get the 'daughter of the sea', it seems that I have to pay a higher price, 850,000. ”

The words of the Marquis of Blue Rose caused laughter, he deliberately said "daughter of the sea", reminiscent of the character of this playboy, he likes to pursue beautiful women, so the nobles all laughed "I understand", but those noble lords whose wives or daughters had scandals with the Marquis of Blue Rose did not look very good.

The next few rounds of price increases, and more nobles participated one after another, but their determination was far less than that of the first three, so they followed for a while, and when the price reached 1.3 million, they retreated decisively.

Count Carreno's breathing was a little uncomfortable, and he secretly said in his heart, it is really a big family, and he can take out a million gold coins at one time, even in the royal capital, there are not many, he is a dignified earl, but one million is about to make him on the verge of bankruptcy. Not to mention those little aristocrats, they simply can't afford it.

"One million and three hundred thousand in the Blue Rose family, is there more?"

Count Carreno suddenly felt a little proud, and the most valuable auction in his auction house was only 800,000 gold coins, which was a record for the auction house of the royal capital! For this alone, the Carreno family's auction house will overtake several other big families in terms of momentum and become the number one auction house.

It's just that the Snape family and the Cassadine family are hesitant, the Snape family doesn't want to spend such a high price to compete, and the-stirring Cassadine family doesn't dare to raise the price again, in case the little fox of the Marquis of Blue Rose withdraws, won't he have to lose money?

"In my personal name, one and a half million."

This voice caused everyone to exclaim, not only because of the shocking high price, but also because its owner was actually Queen Asuti.

In the queen's box, the three princesses all looked at the queen in disbelief, and Atti said unhurriedly: "Even if I lose everything, it is only my personal decision." ”

That being said, the princess knows that the queen is not a woman with long hair and short knowledge, she will never make such a big decision hastily, is she so optimistic about this "movie"?

Princess Snape muttered in her heart: "Even if you lose everything, Your Majesty won't blame you anyway......"

Xia Yi, who was sitting in the corner, was surprised, admiring that this queen was a little courageous, she used her own name, even if she made a wrong decision, she would not be involved in politics, and with one and a half million gold coins, she made such a bet, which is not something that ordinary women dare to do.

Moreover, the nobles of the royal capital have never been exposed to the "movie" thing, and even many nobles are not optimistic, and the queen's vision is beyond the reach of many nobles.

"What a smart woman." Xia Yi whispered.

"Oh, it's a pity, it's already my limit, I give up." The Marquis of Blue Rose did not have a trace of dissatisfaction, and said gentlemanly, but only he knew how many times he had cursed the queen in his heart.

"I have one condition, Count Carreno." The queen said again, "I want to meet your mysterious employer, and that should be okay, right?" ”

Count Carreno's expression was tight, he didn't expect the queen to mention this condition, because this was already outside the matter of Xia Yi's explanation, he glanced at the venue, and asked for an opinion from Xia Yi in the unknown, and received a positive answer.

"She's glad to do it, it's an honor, my majesty."

The Count of Carreno then did some aftermath work, announcing the end of the auction and the nobles leaving.

The ladies were still reminiscing about that wonderful story, and as for the subsequent auction, they didn't pay much attention. After returning to the family, they have another after-dinner conversation, it is essential to talk to friends and relatives, and they are a little proud in their hearts, and it is definitely a pity that they have not watched the 'movie'.

"Alright, Guro, it's finally over." Xia Yi said to Gu Luo, who was still unsatisfied next to him.

"Yes, Miss Chailly." Gu Luo breathed a sigh of relief, one was for this unprecedented auction, and the other half was for him not to be troubled.

"Let's go."

Xia Yi took Gu Luo and walked inside, but was stopped by Gu Luo: "You are going in the wrong direction, this is the exit." ”

"No, I'm going in, do you want to come along?"

"Oh! You must be confused, have you forgotten who we are? Do you want to be discovered? Gu Luo looked around, for fear that someone would notice them, "Let's go, we will suffer if we are caught!" ”

"Don't be afraid, I'm looking for my old friend, you must come, because I also have to introduce you to it, this is about your future business."

Gu Luo was entangled for a long time, if it was a friend who worked in the auction house of Count Carreno, it would really help him in his future business, the most important point for a merchant is his connections, Gu Luo gritted his teeth, since he was Xia Yi's friend, he would definitely not expose them, Gu Luo was very worried, because his figure was too conspicuous in front of tall humans.

"Miss Chay, I never know what you do, but you still have a friend at Count Carreno's auction, what does he do?" Gu Luo chattered all the way...... (To be continued......)
