Chapter 36: The Auction (9) (Fourth Update, Ask for Subscription!) )
After the occasional conflict subsided, there was no panic, not the kind that Leo imagined, after the second prince saw Perrin being carried back, he was angry and made any means of revenge, thinking about it, no matter what, as a member of the royal family of the huge empire, no matter what his personality is, thinking and forbearance are also necessary traits
Regardless of what cruel things Rolf would do to his subordinates after enduring this breath, below the auction hall, Rebecca could only announce the result with a little regret after waiting for a while and making sure that there would be no new prices, although this amount of gold coins was terrifying enough......
"Distinguished gentlemen, beautiful ladies, I think that after a period of rest, you have also recovered your spirits, then, I solemnly announce that the final winner of [Morrist Manor] is the mysterious guest from His Excellency the Duke of Lancaster."
Blinking seductively, Rebecca put her hands on her chest with some contrived hands, "I think I can already guess the name of this guest, but because of my profession, I beg my pardon for not being able to say his name without his consent, and now that the estate officially has a new owner, of course, after full payment has been made...... Cluck! ”
"Haha!" The nobles below were amused by Rebecca's deliberate last joke, and they all laughed good-naturedly
**********************
In the box, several people looked at Leo and laughed, in Antonis's envious gaze, Leo could only spread his hands helplessly, "Although I know that you are not laughing at this, but I still have to say, damn it, I will pay......"
At this time, even Fein couldn't help laughing, Auston barely swallowed the nuts in his mouth, and joked to Elena, "You have to be optimistic about Leo, the chick on the stage now I'm afraid that as long as he looks past now, he can't help but send it to the door himself, as for the other ladies in the imperial capital, hehe~"
Gently pinching Leo's arm, Elena said with a red face, "Uncle Auston, I think you want to add another lover, Leo won't be like this!" ”
"Okay, let's continue watching the auction, it is estimated that more exciting things will happen in the second half" The Duke of Lancaster was afraid that Leo was thin-skinned, so he stopped everyone from ridiculing him
As for the title deed of [Morrist Manor], everyone is not worried, it will definitely be delivered to Leo as soon as the auction is over, and of course, there will be many legal procedures that need to be fulfilled for such a large transaction
After the climax in the middle, the auction that followed was a little bland, but the so-called blandness was just relative to the people in this room, Leo and the Duke did not see what they were interested in
However, Auston spent tens of thousands of gold coins to buy a set of jewelry, and looking at his mysterious appearance, everyone did not bother to ask whether he gave it to his wife or someone else......
During this period, the Marquis of Peyton, who also participated in the auction, also made a sale in another box, and he bought a large number of pure metal ore from the mines of the western part of the empire, which could not only make a large number of agricultural tools for the marquis's domain, but also arm more soldiers
It was a wealthy merchant who competed with the Marquis of Hohenzollern to the end, but in the end, the president of a chamber of commerce in the imperial capital, after the marquis calmly shouted a price that barely made any profit, he reluctantly shook his head and gave up
At the same time, there was no quotation from the box of the second prince Rolf, and there was an extremely eerie silence after the conflict, and what made the Duke of Lancaster a little puzzled was that the cardinal, who was one of the top officials of the church, had not bought anything from beginning to end
This anomaly made him even more vigilant, and after telling Leo and Auston of his doubts, they also took the duke's judgment for granted
You must know that although they also believe in the gods introduced by the Church on the surface and verbally, the relationship between these mature political figures, or because of the distribution of power, the relationship between the great nobles and the Church is not harmonious, and the status quo is only maintained under the reason of both sides
With a common language, time always passed quickly in conversation, and as the sky grew dark, there were already servants who lit all the candles in the box, and moved their muscles a little, and the long wait made Leo a little mentally tired
Just as he was considering whether to discuss with the Duke and send Elena home first, the auction finally came to an end, and after a short break with the previous item being successfully auctioned, Rebecca put on a new set of clothes and walked out again
"Leo, look, it's your turn to send the sword for auction" Auston, who was still very excited, was the first to see the box that Rebecca was holding in his hand, which he was very familiar with......
"It's ours, Auston, I haven't forgotten your efforts on this sword, you know that writing is a painful thing, and I stand by my decision, you must get a share of the profits after the auction, which is the reward you deserve"
Leo also pulled himself together and said to Auston as he walked to the guardrail
"I can't refuse my friend's generosity, well, now I wish this sword would sell for a good price, my dear, you should have told me this sooner, then I would have spent more time perfecting the story, and now that I think about it, there is something wrong with it......"
Secretly rolled her eyes, thinking that if you still let you perfect, I am afraid that even the last few hours of sleep will be forced to give up, but after hearing the appearance of Leo's commission, everyone gathered, and Elena clenched her fists, looking even more nervous than Leo herself
**********************
Twisting her waist, Rebecca first carefully placed the long box she was holding in both hands on the auction table, and stroked the hair of her sideburns, which should be a specially customized set of knightly light armor, which did not show any domineering on her, but was worn with an indescribable temptation
Of course, looking at the thin armor pieces and the shapes focused on highlighting the figure, anyone can see that the defensive ability of this light armor is probably not much better than that of the leather jacket
Gently stroking the box in front of her, Rebecca's face changed to a distressing gloom, and with the seductive figure tightly outlined by the light armor, almost all men wanted to take her into their arms and caress her fiercely
Slightly opening her lips, Rebecca's voice seemed to take on some ethereal and ethereal
"The people who live in the mysterious and distant continent affectionately call the land beneath their feet 'Pande'...... One day, a former aristocratic girl, after losing her home and loved ones, held back her weeping and with endless hatred, with the help of well-wishers, escaped from the clutches of her enemies......"
"Wow~!!"
Again, there was a bit of noise in the auction room, this time not because of Rebecca's somewhat ethereal and ethereal voice, but because of the word Pande, which is now becoming more and more familiar
This made the nobles think of the magical Leo that brought about it, and the armor that had been given to the duke that had spread throughout the imperial capital, and of course, the exciting legend that went with it......
At this time, even the most lazy nobleman sat up straight, and looked at the long wooden box on the auction table with hot eyes, which, if I guessed correctly, should be a long sword, a weapon that might be comparable to the armor of the fascists......
