The first time he came to Westminster Auction House, he could see the battle between the top elites of the empire, and the curious Bai Feng asked Martha beside him: "Martha, do you know who the people in VIP Room 14 and VIP Room 9 are?"

Martha, who didn't dare to slack off, took out a small notebook and replied after checking it for a while: "VIP room No. 14 is provided to Duke Truss of the Rudolph family this time, and VIP room No. 9 is provided to Duke Cullen of the Onassis family this time. ”

"So, the person in VIP room fourteen is Duke Truss, the Minister of Justice of the Empire, and the person in VIP room No. 9 is Duke Kulun, the Minister of War of the Empire, right?" Bai Feng, who was smiling, seemed to smell the breath of the struggle for the throne.

In the face of Bai Feng's questioning again, Martha shook her head this time and said seriously: "We only know which family the VIP room belongs to tonight, as for whether the honorable duke is here in person, then it is not for us maids to know." ”

Bai Feng, who was very satisfied with Martha's answer, did not say anything more, but shifted his attention to the bidding that was still heating up, and at this time, the bidding had entered a white-hot state, and the two sides of the-for-tat had become the focus of the auction house.

"Two hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!" The fourteenth VIP room quoted again, pushing the price of this armor to a new peak.

"Two hundred and sixty thousand gold coins!" the indomitable No. 9 VIP room is still so speechless as always.

"500,000 gold coins!" Lounge Fourteen, who didn't want to waste any more time, showed its resolve with this doubling offer, which far exceeded the actual value of the armor, and made Lounge Nine finally give up their provocative offer.

After the final decision, this Yamato Empire gold armor, which cost no more than 50,000 gold coins, was bought by the owner of VIP Room 14 at a high price of 500,000 gold coins, and Bai Feng, who was the consignor of the armor, had an uncontrollable smug smile on his face.

The owner of the fourteenth VIP room is Duke Truss, the Minister of Justice of the Empire, and Duke Truss is the maternal grandfather of the Eighth Prince, and belongs to the hardcore Eight Princes;

The first piece of the Yamato Empire's golden armor was won by VIP Room 14 after fierce competition, followed by the second piece of fine porcelain of the Yamato Empire, which was won by VIP Room 9, which had voluntarily abandoned last time, for 3 million gold coins.

Compared with the collection of weapons and equipment such as the Golden Warframe, the collection value of porcelain is undoubtedly higher, and the latter's recognition in aristocratic circles is also much stronger than the former, so much so that VIP Room Nine used six times the bid of the Golden Warframe to win this porcelain.

Of course, it was not only the ninth and the fourteenth VIP rooms that competed for this piece of porcelain, but also many other powerful people in the VIP room also participated in the bidding, and it was not until the bidding exceeded two million gold coins that most of the powerful people gave up the competition.

Bai Feng took out a total of more than fifty treasures of the Yamato Empire and handed them to Duke for consignment, except for the first twenty-five treasures that were snatched up by the magnates in various VIP rooms, the other nearly thirty ordinary treasures of the Yamato Empire were bought by the nobles and wealthy merchants in the hall.

Among all these treasures, the cheapest glass folding fan was auctioned for 180,000 gold coins, and the most expensive was the porcelain that sold for 3 million gold coins.

After selling the treasures that Bai Feng had consigned to, the opening ceremony of the auction ceremony was officially over, and the next thing was the real auction ceremony of Westminster Auction House, and just as Bai Feng was about to take a good look at the auction items, there was a knock on the door of his VIP room.

"Bai Gongzi, I'm Duke. Hearing Duke who reported his door, Bai Feng nodded and motioned for Martha to open the door, and Duke, who came to the VIP room alone, congratulated Bai Feng as soon as he entered the door: "Congratulations to Bai Gongzi, you have become a huge rich man in the imperial capital overnight!"

"Haha, Mr. Duke is so polite! If it weren't for the help of your auction house, how could I have sold these worthless things for such a sky-high price? If I am a huge rich man in the imperial capital, it is also a huge wealth that your auction house has helped me achieve!"

"It's Bai Gongzi, you're so polite!" Duke said meaningfully with a smile on his face, "It's really our honor for our auction house to be able to help you auction these unique treasures, you know, these treasures are new things that have never appeared on the mainland!"

Hearing Duke say this, Bai Feng didn't even think about it and explained half-truthfully: "These treasures were seized by our Bai family from the barbarians in the barbarian land, if Mr. Duke is willing, we can establish long-term cooperation in the future." ”

"Yes, if you are willing to hand over all these treasures to us at Westminster Auctions, I can assure you that you will always be charged only three percent of the minimum auction fee, and that you will be the highest level of diamond VIP at our Westminster Chamber of Commerce." ”

As he spoke, Duke took out a diamond card with Bai Feng's name printed on it from his spatial ring, this kind of card similar to the size of the magic gold card, but it was made of diamonds, and the cost of a single card was estimated to be more than 300,000 gold coins!

The currencies used on the mainland are gold and silver coins, but there are also uncommon platinum coins and diamond coins on top of gold coins, each platinum coin can be exchanged for 100 gold coins, and the more valuable diamond coins can be exchanged for 1,000 platinum coins, which is equal to 100,000 gold coins!

Looking at the shocked look on Bai Feng's face, Duke smiled slightly: "Young Master Bai, this diamond VIP card was minted after melting five diamond coins, and it is the identity certificate prepared by our Westminster Chamber of Commerce for the most distinguished guests. ”

"From now on, with this VIP card alone, you can withdraw 10 million gold coins at any time in all the shops under our Westminster Chamber of Commerce, and if you need it, you can also take this VIP card to our gold bank at any time to withdraw 10 million gold coins in cash!"

"Mr. Duke, as far as I know, the Eighth Prince of the Empire is only a silver VIP in your Westminster Chamber of Commerce, how can I, Bai Feng, become your diamond VIP?" The value of the diamond VIP card was beyond Bai Feng's imagination, but Bai Feng didn't want to accept it like this.

"Bai Gongzi, the VIP card of our Westminster Chamber of Commerce mainly depends on the value of the VIP to our Chamber of Commerce, not the identity of the VIP himself; ”

Bai Feng was not a child, so he naturally couldn't believe Duke's explanation, but he still accepted the diamond VIP card that Duke gave him, and thanked him with a smile: "Since Mr. Duke is so enthusiastic, then I am ashamed to be disrespectful." ”

"It is an honour for us at Westminster Chamber of Commerce to be a partner of Young Prince. After negotiating this matter, Duke continued: "Please give me your gold card first, and I will deposit the more than 98 million gold coins you just got from the auction into the gold card for you." ”

While Bai Feng handed the gold card to Duke, he also pressed a piece of paper full of words under the gold card, and Duke, who reached out to take the paper and the gold card, immediately said goodbye to Bai Feng with a smile and left the VIP room, leaving only Martha with a shocked face and Bai Feng with a smile on his face.
