Volume 2: SAARC Rebellion Chapter 2: The Flame Auction

The second day was close to noon, just before the auction began.

After a brief wash, Deng Twelve left the inn.

The inn where he lived was very close to the Flame Chamber of Commerce, and that was where today's auction was held.

After taking three or two steps to the Flame Chamber of Commerce, after registering at the front desk, someone immediately led him up.

The Flame Chamber of Commerce has a total of five floors, of which only one to four floors are open to the public, and the fifth floor is closed all year round.

The items sold in this to the fourth tier are closely related to the level of the item.

The first floor sells one- and two-star items, while on the second floor, the contents become three-star items.

As for the third and fourth layers, they correspond to four-star and five-star items, respectively.

As for the fifth floor, it is specially used to do other things, and it is not usually open.

Only when there is a big auction like today, can this fifth floor be used for a long time.

Deng Twelve followed the staff in front of him to the door on the fifth floor, and a staff member standing in front of the door got a card with the number thirty-five written on it.

After he took the number card, the staff member who led the way nodded at him and turned to walk down, thinking that his duty had been completed.

And the staff member standing at the door intimately helped Deng Twelve open the door and liberate the world behind the door.

Deng Twelve stepped into the door of the fifth floor of the Fire Chamber of Commerce, and at this time, there were already many people sitting scattered behind the door.

After he entered, these people did not turn to look, presumably not caring who the person who came in.

The space behind the gate is not small, on the contrary, it seems a bit huge.

Inside this vast space, nearly 500 chairs are neatly arranged, and in front of these arranged chairs is a high platform, on which a table is placed four or five meters long.

And on this long table, Deng Twelve also saw a small black hammer, and he couldn't tell what material it was made of.

He approached the table in front of him and noticed that on the armrests of each chair were engraved with very obvious black numbers, presumably related to the card with the number written on it that he had received outside the door.

Deng Twelve followed the order of the increase and decrease of the numbers, and easily found the position marked with the number thirty-five.

"This should be my place. ”

Thinking of this, he sat down and looked around.

There were very few people here, about a dozen, and they all sat alone one by one, not talking to others.

I think everyone came here for the sake of the things in this fire auction, and no one would go out of their way to talk to others.

Deng Twelve calmed down, closed his eyes, and waited for the auction to begin.

You know, he has several things he has to get in this auction.

"I just don't know if the money is enough......"

One million gold coins is really not a lot for a big auction.

Time passed slowly, and in the meantime, people kept coming in through the back gate.

They sat down one after another, and soon filled the entire auction hall.

"Ding Dong!"

A loud bell rang, and everyone who heard it opened their eyes and looked ahead.

They knew that the bell was ringing to mean that it was already noon, and it was time for this huge auction to begin.

"Click!"

After the bell rang, the door behind everyone was suddenly locked by a thick magic steel lock, and it was difficult for people to enter and exit.

Looking at the thick lock on the door, a hint of strange color flashed in everyone's eyes.

Demon Steel is a five-star material, and after refining, even the attacks of the five-star source beast can't break it.

"This Huoyan Chamber of Commerce is really rich enough, such a big magic steel lock, I'm afraid it weighs hundreds of pounds. ”

Just when everyone was still lamenting the wealth of the Flame Chamber of Commerce, the entire auction had already entered the beginning stage.

I saw a kind white-bearded old man walk out of nowhere, and slowly walked up to the high platform with a long table.

When he walked up, he first touched his beard and smiled, then picked up the small hammer on the long table and struck it violently.

"Bang!"

The old man's knock was very hard, so it broke out with a loud noise.

The sound spread to all corners of this space in an instant, causing everyone to instantly shift their attention from the magic steel lock and place it on him.

Seeing this effect, the white-bearded old man was very satisfied, put down the small hammer in his hand, and touched his long white beard again.

Deng Twelve, who was sitting below, also set his eyes on the white-bearded old man, and while looking, he also heard what the people on the side said.

From these words, Deng Twelve knew that the old man in front of him was the vice president of the Jindingcheng Branch of the Huoyan Chamber of Commerce, named Ouyang Xiu, and it was not the first time he had presided over such a large-scale auction.

"Uh-huh!"

Ouyang Xiu on the high platform cleared his throat, glanced at everyone below with two cloudy eyes, and said with a smile: "It is an honor for my Huoyan Chamber of Commerce that everyone can come to participate in the auction of my Huoyan Chamber of Commerce in their busy schedules.

Old man, my name is Ouyang Xiu, and I am the vice president of the branch of the Jinding City Fire Flame Chamber of Commerce, I think there should be many people here who know me, after all, this is not the first time that I have presided over such an auction, old man.

I'm no better than a beautiful old man, but I don't have the ability to keep your eyes on me, so that you should have more energy to pay attention to the things in the auction.

I think that's why the Flame Chamber of Commerce always arranges for the old man to preside over the auction for you. ”

After saying that, smiles appeared on the faces of many people sitting below, and it was obvious that the old man's opening remarks made them all relax a lot.

Ouyang Xiu touched his beard again and continued: "Okay, I won't say much, I guess you don't like to see me as an old man being verbose."

Finally, there are three rules for auctions, one is not to disclose the identity of the auctioneer, the second is not to use other means to suppress the auction price, and the third is not to inflate the price.

Well, now I announce that this Flame Auction has officially begun!"

As the old man finished speaking, a man dressed as a squire held a covered silver plate from behind, went up to the high platform, placed the silver plate on the long table, and then opened the lid above.

Because it was the first item, everyone looked at the silver platter with great interest, and on the uncovered silver platter were placed two black bottles, each about the size of a palm.

Ouyang Xiu glanced at the items on the silver platter in front of him, touched his beard again and said with a smile: "Now, let's auction the first item of this auction, I think everyone has already got the auction list, and they should also know what this thing is in front of me." ”

Deng Twelve, who was sitting in the seat, stared closely at the two bottles on the silver plate, his eyes fiery.

"Demon Water, this amount should be enough to use darkly. ”

The auction list I received from the Flame Chamber of Commerce before, although it had the names and order of most of the auctioned items, did not state the number of these items.

Therefore, Deng Twelve was still a little uneasy before, afraid that the number of auctions would not be able to meet the dark demand at that time, and it would be troublesome.

And at this time, when he saw the amount of Demon Shadow Water, he was finally satisfied, these quantities were enough for the dark evolution.

Ouyang Xiu, who had sold a pass, saw that the atmosphere on the field was almost lively, so he said: "I won't sell Guanzi anymore, there are a total of four catties of demon water here, divided into two parts, two catties each."

However, although this magic water is packed separately, it is sold together, these four catties of magic water, the starting price is 100,000 gold coins, and the price increase shall not be less than 5,000 gold coins each time, now please bid. ”

As soon as Ouyang Xiu finished speaking, the sound of snatching immediately sounded on the field.

"Sixty, 100,000 gold coins!"

"Three hundred and eighty-one, one hundred and fifty-five thousand gold coins. ”

"Number 10, 110,000 gold coins!"

Seeing that people kept increasing the price, Deng Twelve frowned, the actual price of one catty of Demon Water was 30,000 gold coins, and four catties were 120,000 gold coins.

In other words, the actual value of these four catties of Demon Water is 120,000 gold coins, but at this time, the price of everyone shouting is continuing to rise, and now it has reached 140,000.

"Four hundred and fifty, 140,000 gold coins for the first time!"

Seeing that Ouyang Xiu had already begun to swing the small hammer to set the price, Deng Twelve gritted his teeth and shouted, "Thirty-five, 150,000 gold coins." ”

Hearing this, Ouyang Xiu's smile became even thicker, and he said loudly: "150,000 gold coins for the first time." ”

At this time, because the Demon Ghost Water had far overflowed its true price, everyone did not increase the price again, after Ouyang Xiu set the price three times in a row.

Ouyang Xiu picked up the small hammer and slammed it down on the long table, and said with a smile, "Congratulations to our thirty-fifth guest for getting these two bottles of magic water, you can go to the backstage to check out after the auction and receive what you have auctioned, or you can also go to the backstage to check out and receive it directly." ”

After that, the attendant who had come up to the high platform with the silver plate carefully covered the round lid, and once again walked from the high platform with the silver plate and went to the direction of the backstage.

The backstage is located behind the high platform, where there is a small door, which is the only place in the area that communicates with the outside world except for the main gate.

Deng Twelve didn't choose to collect the Demon Water at this time, after all, he still had something to auction next, so there was no need to rush it.

It's just that after photographing the magic water, Deng Twelve felt a little troublesome in his heart, because he began to feel that his money was a little insufficient.

Demon Water was only the lowest value of the things he wanted to buy, and it cost 150,000 gold coins, which was obviously beyond his expectations.

In this way, the remaining 850,000 gold coins are obviously not enough to support him to shoot all the things he needs.

"If I just wanted to put down those few things before, the money would be enough, but if I wanted to photograph the things that were very important to the moon, I am afraid it would be a little stretched. ”

sighed lightly in his heart, and at this time, the second thing that was auctioned was also taken up by the attendant on the high platform.

It was also a silver platter, and after the attendant lifted the round lid on the silver platter, a piece of charred black wood appeared in everyone's eyes.

And this time, Ouyang Xiu didn't go to sell Guanzi again, but directly began to introduce the things on the silver plate on the long table.

"This piece of wood like black charcoal is lightning strike wood, but the growth year is not long, and the burnt skin on the surface has not faded, and it was cut down, but even so, it still contains the power of the dual attributes of thunder and wood, and it has a great effect on the two source beasts.

The starting price is 50,000 gold coins, and each increase shall not be less than 1,000 gold coins. ”

When the words fell, there were also many snapping sounds.

Lightning strike wood is generally a five-star material, but this lightning strike wood was cut down by others before it grows, and the attribute energy contained in it is not as strong as ordinary lightning strike wood.

Probably only reached the quasi-four-star level, so the price is not high.

Soon, this lightning strike wood was bought by No. 40 for 55,000, which is not a high price, and it can be regarded as his earning.

In this way, the third and fourth items began to be auctioned, and the enthusiasm of the crowd began to wane, and there was no longer the high level of the opening.

After all, it is not important to auction things all the time, and many people are not interested in them, so naturally they cannot pour enthusiasm into them.

However, this changed when the tenth auction item appeared.

When the tenth auction item was taken out from the rear by the attendants, everyone couldn't help but put their eyes on the silver platter.

The silver plate was placed on the long table again by the attendants, and the lid was lifted.

When Ouyang Xiu saw this item, his tone couldn't help but become a little excited.
