Chapter Ninety-Six: Old Classmates Are All Poisonous Tongues

Despite being hailed as a "hard wall", the jewel made by Baron Theresa was sold for a high price. King Reem III ceremoniously praised its magical effects and believed that the buff effect of this piece of jewelry would be of great benefit to some people with bad hearts. This piece of jewelry is inlaid with a real sixth-level wind magic crystal, which can be worn to cover a layer of air film near the human heart, adding a sense of lightness to the human body, and at the same time, it can also have a certain protective effect on the heart.

Baron Theresa danced with joy, and Duchamp glared at him: "If I hadn't corrected ...... for you"

Sir Lincoln came over with a glass of red wine and whispered, "Lukes, the man who nicknamed Clarence at school, thought that back then, I liked to marry my sister to him." ”

Duchamp racked his brains and thought for a long time before he remembered that Clarence was the name of Baron Theresa, and he suddenly remembered the Baron's original words: "I think back then, I was called 'Hillbilly of the Northland' by them." Looking at the humorous Lux Yorkwards on the stage, and then at Baron Theresa, who was wearing the lid of the pot under the stage, I thought to myself, this nickname has achieved a very good image.

In the later stages of the auction, the jewelry marked by Duchamp as a B grade came to the stage, and as the number became smaller and smaller, the atmosphere in the auction room became higher and higher. Duchamp noticed that several people were particularly active in it, and more than one piece was purchased.

Sir Lincoln gradually noticed this sign, and whispered: "Those who buy more, some of them think that the price at the auction still has room for profit, and speculate." Some are competitors, who come to the auction to find out and muddy the waters, which is really tricky. But fortunately, Polaris came out to let others know that we are not easy to mess with, and we didn't deliberately make trouble. ”

The auction lasted until 7 o'clock in the evening, and after all the bids were bidd, there were more than 30 unsold lots, which were placed aside according to the rules of the auction, and the prices were clearly marked for people to "catch the goods".

The price of the goods is a quarter cheaper than the unsold price, and immediately many people who pick up the cheap ones go to "fish", and they are all at once fine. Everyone was in a relaxed and happy mood, and they all went to the third floor to enjoy dinner and socialize.

Duchamp went upstairs and saw Lincoln and Baron Theresa, complimenting Reem III. The wonderful man York Watts was unceremoniously striking at his old classmates: "With all due respect, your taste has been poor for ten years, and the jewelry you see today is shoddy, not to mention the most unsightly works of yours, such a shoddy thing, you are embarrassed to leave a shorthand of your name in the circle." ”

Baron Theresa was wiping his sweat in embarrassment, when he suddenly saw Duchamp come up, and finally found a reason to relieve the siege: "Ah, Lukes, don't be so mean, let me introduce you to my partner S. Duchamp, who is a leading expert in guiding magic. ”

Lux turned around, saw Duchamp, looked at him, stared at Duchamp's left ring finger, and said, "Quite a good work, can you allow me to take a look." ”

On the ring finger of his left hand, Duchamp is wearing the "Ring of the Breeze", an S-class work made by a guiding workbench. How could he take it off for people to see, and said with a smile at the moment: "This ring is just an ancestral family crest, it's really shameful." The fingers were slightly curled, and the ring was already turned to the palm of the hand.

Lux no longer insisted, exchanged pleasantries, and took his leave first.

The guests of honor were already hungry and tired, and each took a lot of things to eat, and Duchamp listened to the guests on the side, and while eating, they were all excitedly reminiscing about the fierceness of the auction during the day.

"This ring, how it matches my finger, fortunately I was clever at the time, and only added an extra 1000 meters, and this ring is mine."

"My grandmother's birthday is approaching, and I am worried that there is no gift to get my hands on, and there is this auction, and I believe that this brooch will satisfy her old man."

It sounds like winning a great war.

That night, the manager of the jewelry store summed up the auction results, and the auction price was about 15 million mira, and everyone was thrilled to hear this figure.

The next day, Duchamp went to the von Stark jewelry store to see what else was to be done. He greeted the clerk, who told him that Mr. Lincoln was upstairs to meet customers. Duchamp didn't care, and went upstairs, where he saw Goethe holding his hands and squinting at the door of the reception room.

Duchamp saw that Goethe's face was not good, and asked, "What is wrong?" ”

Goethe said succinctly: "Hyenas, here they smell fishy." ”

After another moment, Sir Lincoln politely sent a merchant out. When the guests came downstairs, he beckoned Goethe and Duchamp in. Duchamp entered the reception room, saw Lincoln's tired face, and asked with concern, "What, I heard that there is trouble." ”

Lincoln rubbed his temples and said, "There is nothing bothering about Goethe's presence." Just now, this is another one who came to negotiate the agency, but we didn't have the goods, and I simply refused. With that, he turned his head, trying his best to shake off the unpleasantness of the person who had just come, and said in a cheerful mood, "This auction has been a great success, and I would like to discuss with you how to operate next." ”

Duchamp said: "I am not here during this time, I don't know if you have discussed it before. ”

Lincoln frowned and said, "I just thought about trying to make a batch of samples before, but I didn't expect to get such success, and the magic crystals used were saved by Clarence and Polaris." Now we don't have any magic crystals in our hands, and we have to collect a batch of magic crystals. In addition, the capacity of the market also needs to be considered, this is the first time that it is so enthusiastic, if a large number of supplies are supplied, it will inevitably be depressed profit margins, so my original plan was to conduct auctions in the imperial capital twice a year, and not to do sales on a daily basis. ”

Duchamp suggested: "I have an idea that there will only be one auction a year in the imperial capital, and that similar regular auctions can be held in other wealthy cities on the mainland, such as Crossbell." Taking advantage of the success of this auction, build up the momentum, and wait until the next batch of good goods is available, and then hold another one in Crossbell. Let the enthusiasm of the merchants in the imperial capital cool down first, and after a while, if you don't see the goods, you will naturally die. ”

Lincoln clasped his hands excitedly: "I didn't think of the good place of Crossbell, which is the financial and trade center of the mainland and the city with the largest concentration of wealthy people in the world." ”

Duchamp smiled and said: "No matter how you inquire outside, you just need to say that Patek Philippe entrusted you to arrange the auction and let out the rumors that the auction is only once a year, and there is no hole for other businessmen to intervene." I believe that after hearing this news, the valuation of the batch of jewelry sold yesterday will go up. Let the Baron continue to acquire high-grade magic crystals in the Northlands, and we will be fully prepared for the auction of Crossbell, and the time will be in the summer. ”

Sir Lincoln has been painful and happy in the past two days, since the preparation of the auction of magic jewels, there have been various large and small organizations to inquire about the seller's background, to propose various conditions of cooperation, in the imperial capital, where the aristocratic dignitaries are concentrated, his poor background is really vulnerable, hiding in Crossbell to operate, his pressure is much less.

He walked a few steps around the room, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was the best of both worlds: "Crossbell City has a strong business atmosphere, if we successfully operate the auction there, in the future, as long as the Imperial Capital and Crossbell hold regular auctions." In this way, the daily worries will be much reduced. I heard that the dignitaries there were very inclined to the empire, and asked Reem III to apply for the event in the name of the Imperial Capital Jewelry Association, which was bound to gain support. ”
