Chapter 848: Price Increase

In the end, Crimson Tears sold for nine thousand gold Galleons, and it was clear that the pirates were still very sensible, while the merchants had picked up a big bargain.

Such a diamond, a slight change of hands, has a double profit.

Even, if you cut it and make it into exquisite jewelry, the benefits will be several times or even dozens of times!

It is only such interests that will attract businessmen to ignore the dangers along the way and rush one after another.

Bill and Wilson's eyes widened as they watched as the oddities were auctioned, almost all of which cost no less than five thousand gold Galleons.

Of course, there are also some strange things, because there is really no practical use, and in the end it is unlucky.

"Next, our Lot 13, a fragment of a treasure map......

The master of ceremonies' voice had a scendiary flavor in it: "It's no secret that pirate groups like to hide their wealth somewhere on a desert island to be discovered later...... Although the treasure map auctioned this time is only a fragment, according to the information revealed by the seller, it is from the Solo pirate group! We, the auction house, can vouch for this! ”

"The Solo Pirates? Is it the same pirate gang that once dominated the Solomon Strait? ”

Formosa, a big businessman from Sissel, stood up, looking excited.

"Oh my God...... The leader of the Solo Pirate Regiment is known as the man closest to the evil god, and his strength terrified all the maritime powers at that time, and he almost became the king of pirates! ”

There were also exclamations from the Trident Pirates.

"Ahem...... However, although our auction house guarantees that this treasure map is indeed from the Solo Pirates, we are not sure of its profits...... However, judging from the extraordinary power entrenched on it, it should not be a small treasure to ......."

Seeing that the atmosphere was mobilized, the master of ceremonies was very satisfied, and immediately emphasized the danger: "...... I only have a fragment in my hand, about a quarter to a fifth of the original picture, but ...... According to our appraiser, the treasure map has a blessing of fate that will one day reunite with its brother! ”

After all, he is the auctioneer of the auction house, and he is trying to exaggerate the benefits and minimize the risks.

"Okay, a fragment of the mysterious treasure map, the starting price is 1,000 gold Galleons, and each increase must not be less than 100 gold Galleons!"

The master of ceremonies waved his hand.

"Two thousand gold Galleons!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Formosa waved his hand.

"Two thousand one hundred!"

The Trident Pirate Regiment immediately increased its price.

"Two thousand two hundred!"

……

Fang Yuan stared at this scene coldly, reached into his arms, and clenched a certain treasure map fragment.

The shard, which he had spilled from the cover of the book, had a smell very similar to the one being auctioned, and he was sure that the two came from the same whole.

"The Solo Pirates, the pirates entrenched in the Solomon Strait...... They are also famous in history, their leader is a god-like man, and they also own a legendary ship......"

After confirming that the treasure map in his arms had something to do with the Solo Pirate Group, Fang Yuan suddenly thought a little.

In terms of financial resources, he who had just ransacked a port would not be inferior to anyone present.

The fierce bidding chased after me, but when it was near five thousand gold galleons, it gradually subsided.

Obviously, neither pirates nor merchants are fools and know that this has reached the limits of this treasure map.

Even if it is a treasure map of the Solo Pirates, first of all, it is only a fragment, the value is greatly reduced, and soon, the target is also very uncertain, and the combination of these two factors determines that the treasure map is basically impossible to fetch a high price.

"Five thousand three hundred gold Galleons at a time! Is there more? ”

The master of ceremonies tugged at his collar excitedly, apparently the price had greatly exceeded his expectations.

"Five thousand three hundred gold Galleons, the second time, it seems that this treasure map is about to belong to our great merchant from Sissel, Formosa......"

Just as he was about to hammer the hammer, a voice interjected: "Wait a minute, I'll give five thousand four hundred!" ”

"Huh?"

Formosa's originally calm smile changed, and he looked at Sith Frey, who was bidding, and gritted his teeth a little: "Six thousand gold Galleons!" ”

"Seven thousand!"

Sisfrey didn't blink an eye, and directly quoted a high price.

This scene, on the contrary, frightened Formosa.

After all, although he had money, it was undoubtedly a bit of a loss to spend so much money on a treasure map fragment.

"Seven thousand one hundred gold Galleons!"

Thinking of this, Formosa raised the price again: "This is my final bottom line, I'm just very interested in everything about Solomon, if Sisfrey you bid higher than me, I'll give it to you!" ”

"Since Formosa you said so!"

Sisfrey touched his whiskers: "Seven thousand two hundred gold Galleons!! ”

Hearing this, Formosa sat down expressionlessly.

"Okay, then this treasure map belongs to ......"

The master of ceremonies coughed, and just as he wanted to announce the final result, Fang Yuan's lazy voice rang out again: "Ten thousand gold gallons!" ”

"What?"

The master of ceremonies almost choked on his own saliva: "Mr. over there, are you sure that your bid is 10,000 gold gallons?" ”

"Not bad...... I'm not as stingy as some people! ”

Fang Yuan glanced at Sisfrey, his tone contemptuous, making the slave trader so angry that the fat on his body was trembling.

"Good, good!"

Sisfrey cursed fiercely and continued to bid: "Eleven thousand gold Galleons!" ”

"Twelve thousand!"

Fang Yuan followed unceremoniously.

It was only then that Formosa and the original bidders were stunned to discover that there were still many people who were really interested in this fragment, and their eyes couldn't help but flash with complexity.

……

"Fifteen thousand gold Galleons!"

Sisfrey spat out a number fiercely, and his eyes seemed to be full of bloodshot when he looked at Fang Yuan.

"Since you look at me so sincerely, okay......" Fang Yuan spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and sat back in his chair: "Then let it be given to you!" Come, let's toast to the bold, big slave merchant Sith Frey! ”

The pirates are all characters who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and they suddenly whistle playfully.

In their opinion, this trickster, who had a contradiction with Sithfrey, used his words to play a trick on the slave traders.

Forcing him to buy this seemingly wasted treasure map fragment at a higher price is indeed a wonderful scene.

"Good, good!"

If the big slave merchant saw that Fang Yuan's eyes were only bloodshot before, at this time, it was really like a knife, and he couldn't wait to cut off a few pieces of meat directly on Fang Yuan's body.

"Ahem......"

The master of ceremonies hurriedly played the round: "Everyone...... Next, it is time for our auction house's reserved program - slave auction, first of all, there are a group of 100 plantation slaves, each of them is a good hand at growing crops, and has a docile personality, will not resist, is definitely the first choice of all plantation owners, there are a total of ten groups, each group is auctioned separately, and the reserve price is 1,000 gold Galleons! ”

The slave trade, which was forbidden to the Insman Kingdom, which prided itself as a civilized gentleman.

More than a decade ago, the king signed a law to pardon all native slaves and give them a free status.

Of course, some of the employees who work in the sweatshops are not even treated as well as the slaves on the plantations, so there is no need to worry too much about this.

However, although slaves were forbidden in Insman itself, slaves were always in demand on tropical plantations and in factories abroad.

In this regard, Blackbeard held the lion's share and was the notorious leader of the slave traders.

In his territory, slaves were open for sale.

For example, at this time, these slaves were indeed docile and mastered a skill, and the price was also very favorable, and they were immediately divided among the shipowners of all stripes.

After the sale of batches of ordinary slaves, it was the turn of the real high-level slaves, and Helge was among them, and of course, there were a few particularly beautiful female slaves.

"High-ranking slave, Helga, master the art of navigation, is an excellent navigator, the starting price is one thousand gold Galleons!"

The master of ceremonies waved his hand and asked two strong men to carry up a slave.

Fang Yuan fixed his eyes, this Helge was probably less than thirty years old, with wheat-colored skin, strong chest, two small beards, well-defined facial features, and a cynical smile at the corner of his mouth, he did have some charm.

"Helga!"

Wilson, who was next to him, was shouting at this time, and he was almost about to rush onto the showcase.

"Hell! Butcher! ”

Fang Yuan covered his face and made a gesture.

Wilson suddenly felt a black shadow like a mountain pressing down, and the whole person was immediately unable to move.

"One thousand one hundred!"

……

The auction continued, and in a short time, the asking price had reached fifteen hundred gold gallons.

"I'm out ...... Three thousand gold galleons! ”

Fang Yuan suddenly spoke, directly doubling the price, and glanced at Sisfrey defiantly.

The big slave merchant, who was still panting and preparing to raise the price, suddenly had a stir and thought of what had happened before.

After all, this slave is only a friend of the third mate of the other party, not a friend of the captain, and it may not be very important, otherwise he would have paid the money to ransom him in the first place.

What if, this is another ploy of the other party?

When the time comes, what does it matter if you buy your own slaves at a higher price? Do you give away the auction house twice for free?

He hesitated.

As for the other shipowners, three thousand gold gallons had already far exceeded the true value of the slaves, so naturally they would not be wronged, and everyone thought that this was Fang Yuan's trap, and no one was stupid enough to step on it.

"Thank you, boss!"

When the final word was made, Wilson looked at Fang Yuan with a gaze full of gratitude.

"You're welcome ......"

Fang Yuan waved his hand and stared at the auction table, at this time, the auction of the slave was also in the final finale, and his consignment was also on the scene.

"Next, it's the finale of our slave auction, the daughter of a nobleman, Miss Elizabeth from Innsman!"

The master of ceremonies shouted at the top of his voice.
