Chapter 3 Auction House
Li Tianxing left the Xingyue Chamber of Commerce and went to the auction house in the eastern district of the city to participate in the auction.
Due to the fact that the two-day martial arts competition is about to start, the major chambers of commerce have already prepared all kinds of pills, weapons, and armor, but most of the weapons, armor, and pills provided by the chambers of commerce are mostly unsightly for Tianjiao.
The auction of the Great Shang Dynasty is different from other countries, this is the unified management of the Great Shang Dynasty, it can be said that it is an auction held by the imperial court, if there are no guests to take some rare treasures to auction, the imperial court itself will take some out of the auction, relatively if the seller agrees, the auction house will also buy the treasure in advance and not auction it to the outside world.
Li Tianxing walked into the auction house, took out the Shaocheng Lord Token to register his identity, followed the beautiful maid to the Tianzi No. 5 private room on the second floor of the auction, and waited for the auction to begin.
Most of the people on the first floor of the auction are young people, everyone is sitting in their seats and talking to each other, some are talking about the top ten people who can participate in the competition this time, everyone wants to make more friends, for a lot of ways to go.
I saw a young and beautiful woman walking from the entrance to the auction table in the center of the first floor of the auction, this woman was only about 20 years old, she looked quite charming, wearing a colorful Vermilion Bird dress, which looked particularly moving.
Everyone in the audience stopped talking, and they were all attracted by this beautiful girl.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today's auction is presided over by a little woman, the little woman's name is Chen Xiyao, you can call me Xiyao, the treasures of this auction will definitely make everyone feel worthwhile. The beautiful woman said softly.
The woman's appearance and temperament are touching, and listening to her voice makes people feel that she is a girl who is as gentle as water.
"Now the auction has officially begun, the first auction treasure is the horizontal knife under the ground level, there has been no inscription, the adults who buy it can attach the inscription to you according to their own requirements, the reserve price is 100 taels of silver, and the price increase shall not be less than 10 taels each time," Chen Xiyao shouted softly.
"150 taels. A sturdy young man shouted.
"160 taels. Another young man shouted.
"200 taels, I want this knife. A bearded man with a meaty face shouted.
Seeing that no one continued to increase the price, Chen Xiyao shouted: "This adult bid 200 taels, does anyone else want to increase the price?"
After half a ring, no one raised the price, Chen Xiyao picked up the small hammer and smashed it, with a soft "bang", and congratulated with a smile on his face: "Congratulations to this adult for 200 taels for winning this horizontal knife of the lower grade of the ground level." ”
The bearded man laughed a few times with joy on his face.
Some of the young people present looked regretful, thinking about waiting for the next opportunity, after all, this auction was held for two days, and there were still many opportunities to get it.
The next auction is still some weapons and armor of the lower grades, which were basically auctioned at a price of about 180 taels.
All the way up to the tenth item.
Chen Xiyao smiled with a wry smile on her expression and a hint of grievance: "For the tenth item to be auctioned below, I hope that the bids of the adults will be higher than one thousand taels, otherwise Xiyao will be punished by the steward." ”
A sentence came from the Xuanzi No. 1 private room on the second floor: "Sister Xi Yao, if you are willing to drink tea and chat with any adult who bought the treasure, don't say a thousand taels, I guarantee that 2,000 taels will also be paid." ”
Just listen to the voice, although it is clear and refreshing, and listen to its voice, this master must be a young man in his early twenties.
When everyone on the first floor heard this voice, some people also coaxed: "Yes, if Miss Xiyao is willing, we will definitely pay 2,000 taels of silver to buy a treasure." ”
"Thank you for your love, let's continue our auction, the next treasure is a Qi Gathering Pill, the Qi Gathering Pill can increase the speed of absorbing aura in half a day, and it can also make the peak of the body sense Qi, but after use, it will be weak for three days, and it can be used when breaking through the realm and when you are desperate, the reserve price is 500 taels, and the price increase shall not be less than 50 taels each time. Chen Xiyao saw that the atmosphere of the scene had adjusted, so she continued to start the auction.
As soon as Chen Xiyao's words fell, a magnetic voice came from the audience: "I'll give 1,000 taels, Miss Xiyao, I don't want you to be punished by your steward." I saw a handsome young man with a folding fan in his hand and a personable demeanor.
"1500 taels, I'm not as stingy as Huang Qingyun, only 1,000 taels. The young man who teased Chen Xiyao at the beginning of the Xuanzi No. 1 private room on the second floor spoke up.
"2000 taels, Chen Feng, Huang Qingyun, you two little guys, don't carry it in this auction house anymore, be careful that Miss Xiyao drives you out. A middle-aged man dressed in green clothes and dressed elegantly in the private room of No. 6 spoke up.
Chen Feng is the young man in the Xuanzi No. 1 private room, and Huang Qingyun is the young man sitting on a seat on the first floor, and the two young people heard the voice of the middle-aged man and responded to say hello.
"2100 taels. A middle-aged man dressed in black on the seat on the first floor said.
"2,300 taels, and someone else will accept the bid. Another young man in a green coat in the seat said.
"2500 taels, the little brother conceded it. The middle-aged man in green clothes in the private room of No. 6 spoke again.
"2600 taels, I also want this Qi Gathering Pill, I'm sorry Brother Wang Hua. A fat middle-aged man in a luxurious silk robe in the private room of No. 5 said.
"2900 taels, Brother Hong Chen laughed, the price of treasure is so high, why am you embarrassed to say. The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi in the private room of No. 6 continued to speak.
Chen Xiyao smiled at this time and said: "Wang Hua's family master, Sun Hongchen's family master, you two are still so personable, even if you are opponents, you are still polite, it is really an honor for our auction house to be here by you two distinguished guests." The head of the Hongchen family bid 2,900 taels, may I ask if there is anyone else who wants to bid?"
"Hahaha, little girl Xiyao, your mouth is still so sweet, you praise people every time, which makes us all polite, after all, it is still very useful to be praised by a beauty like you. For your sake, I'll bid another 3,000 taels, and I won't be able to afford any higher. Sun Hongchen laughed.
Li Tianxing saw that the atmosphere of this auction was so good, although everyone was bidding against each other, they could still be polite, and sighed in his heart, thinking that the Sifang City was still the Sifang City, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the pedestrians were polite.
Just when Chen Xiyao was about to knock down the little hammer and make the final decision, Li Tianxing spoke: "3100 taels, Uncle Hong Chen is sorry, my brother has already drawn his qi to the peak, and I also want to help him fight for this Qi Gathering Pill." ”
Although the Qi Gathering Pill has the greatest effect on the peak of quenching the body, it is still very useful for the Qi Gathering Pill to break through to the foundation building, Li Tianxing saw that Li Tianming had reached the peak of Qi Gathering last night, so he wanted to buy this Qi Gathering Pill.
Everyone heard the voice coming from the private room of Tianzi No. 5, and their eyes were all attracted.
Many heads of small families didn't know who the young people in the private room of Tianzi No. 5 were, and they whispered to each other.
"Haha, the young city lord is polite, since the second young master needs this qi gathering pill, then let it be given to the third young master. Sun Hongchen responded with a smile.
This is Wang Hua also opened his mouth and said: "The city lord is honest and honest, and he has done his best for the big business, I admire it very much, and this Qi Gathering Pill will not be earned by the second young master." ”
Everyone in the audience whispered, "Yes, the city lord is honest, and he will not leave behind the road managed by the Sifang City, and he will not close his door at night." It's really impressive. Every time I do business and pass through Sifang City, I always think that I will have the urge to settle here. ”
Seeing this, Chen Xiyao said: "The final bid of the Qi Gathering Pill is 3,100 taels, do you still have anyone else to bid?"
No one in the audience made any more bids, and Chen Xiyao completed the transaction with a final word.
"Then thank you uncles. Li Tianming pushed open the window of the private room and saluted and thanked everyone in the private room on the second floor and the first floor.
Li Tianxing continued to speak: "Miss Xiyao, I'm sorry, I didn't expect this to happen. ”
"The young city lord is polite, it is the city lord who is really admirable, I hope that the young city lord and the second young master can be better than the blue in the future, work for the big business, and let everyone live a life of peace and contentment. Li Xiyao responded.
There was a round of applause, and it was amazing that an auction was made like this in the middle of the auction.
