Chapter 9: Whale Swallowing
The card trading area of the auction house, which has always been deserted, is now crowded with people in the dark.
People stared at the publisher's lips, and with each of her posts, their hearts beat a few points faster and their blood pressure skyrocketed.
"Five Nakshatra cards, priced at eight thousand, with an average price of one thousand six."
"Two bull head guard cards, the price is 2,000, and the average price is 1,000."
The publisher's voice echoed in the trading hall of the university.
One bidder turned his head and whispered to the other.
"George, according to the grapevine, I'm afraid that a fire card will be on the shelves today."
"I already knew," George disagreed, his eyes still fixed on the publisher's beautiful lips.
"How do you know?"
"Master Hou just wants me to take a picture of that fire card!" George rolled his eyes.
"How do you know this?"
The bidder looked back and found that everyone around him was glancing at him with contempt.
Suddenly, as if there was a blockage in his throat, the publisher lowered his voice suddenly.
She took a deep breath, and the people around her held their breath, only her heartbeat pounding.
I saw her beautiful lips slowly squirm, and finally she made up her mind.
People's hearts hung in their throats.
"A Flame Pinosius card, the starting price of the auction is eight million!"
The announcement's announcement was like pouring boiling water into the pigsty.
"Whew! I'll give 8.1 million! Someone immediately shouted.
"Whew! Eight and a half million! ”
"Nine million!"
"Whew!"
。。。
Suddenly, the cacophony drowned out the publisher's voice in the sea of people.
At the entrance of the Alchemy Guild, several workers were changing signboards.
On a jade signboard created by a famous teacher, four large gold-inlaid characters of the Alchemy Guild are shiningly printed.
Next to the large letters is a seal of Queen Skady, and next to it is a line of small letters that reads "Official Partner of Belmar".
At this moment, the two giants of the Alchemy Guild were in the underground laboratory.
"It's not enough to rely on the support of the royal family, it's too little profit."
Yang Jian picked up a tall glass of red wine and said lightly.
"Secretly open the black market and auction house trade, stir up the fire card and stir it up, and insert three pipes together to dig up the treasure."
Norton half-squinted.
"Apprentice, now the master has found out that he was really an old stubborn man, and it was so easy to make money by speculating in goods."
On the table next to them, there were no less than fifty fire cards.
"By the way, how is the official Belmar cooperation?" Yang Jian still had a trace of uneasiness in his heart.
"We'll meet a big guy later."
A carriage moved forward without hurry, and in it sat an old man and a young man.
At this moment they were all blindfolded with black cloths and their hands were tied.
Yang Jian shook from side to side unhappily.
"Are we like guests? The pigs that are going to be slaughtered are cooler than we are now! ”
"Shhhh Settle down, be careful of losing your life! Norton squeaked quickly.
Yang Jian was silent.
The carriage traveled for some time before it finally stopped, and their blindfolds were removed.
Seeing the outside world reappearing in front of them, both old and young took a deep breath comfortably.
In front of them was a country road, a neighbor's yard by the road, and...
A group of murderous guards with knives.
"Master, did we go into the den of thieves?" Watching a guard take a knife to split the rope in his hand, Yang Jian's legs trembled uncontrollably.
"Please, two!" One of the guards couldn't help but lead them into the courtyard.
A few antique rattan chairs surround a round mahogany table, on which a few steaming teas are placed.
A masked warrior sat there domineeringly, revealing the demeanor of a peerless master in his gestures.
"Sit", the warrior popped out a word without embarrassment.
The two of them sat down, and Norton spoke first: "Lord Boken, thanks to your love, our business is getting bigger and bigger."
Yang Jian continued: "This piece belonging to the adult must be indispensable, I brought some greeting gifts today, and I ask the adult to accept it."
As he spoke, he pulled out a gold scroll with six zeros on it.
"Yet", the warrior didn't look at it, took the golden scroll into his arms, and still only said one word.
"In the future, please say a few kind words in front of Your Majesty," Yang Jian said cautiously.
Has this guy pretended to be forced enough? Yang Jian was a little annoyed.
"I'll see this then," Boken finally said, and then closed his eyes, as if in a state of mind.
"I'll wait to say goodbye", the two of them immediately slipped away.
